upon_o the_o same_o he_o have_v say_v before_o i_o and_o the_o father_n be_v one_o and_o have_v make_v himself_o equal_a with_o god_n we_o read_v how_o our_o saviour_n take_v on_o he_o 2.16_o heb._n 2.16_o not_o the_o nature_n of_o angel_n but_o he_o take_v on_o he_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n the_o reduplication_n take_v not_o and_o take_v denote_v the_o voluntary_a act_n of_o a_o person_n

without_o good_a cause_n there_o must_v be_v a_o particular_a reason_n for_o it_o which_o be_v natural_o and_o easy_o insinuate_v to_o be_v this_o that_o god_n be_v their_o father_n and_o he_o not_o upon_o a_o common_a one_o and_o the_o same_o but_o upon_o a_o much_o different_a account_n their_o father_n by_o grace_n and_o his_o by_o nature_n furthermore_o christ_n so_o often_o speak_v of_o
