all_o opposer_n that_o the_o saint_n may_v wait_v for_o and_o witness_v upon_o earth_n to_o have_v power_n over_o sin_n and_o over_o its_o temptation_n and_o free_a from_o the_o commit_n of_o sin_n by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o second_o adam_n live_v and_o dwell_v in_o they_o and_o thus_o must_v thou_o believe_v p._n t._n or_o else_o thou_o believe_v not_o scripture_n nor_o that_o any_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n or_o abide_v in_o christ_n if_o thou_o believe_v not_o that_o then_o confess_v thou_o err_v in_o judgement_n who_o be_v unbelieve_v of_o what_o the_o scripture_n bear_v witness_n of_o therefore_o tell_v i_o plain_o if_o thou_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v any_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n and_o abide_v in_o christ_n then_o must_v thou_o believe_v such_o do_v not_o commit_v sin_n else_o thou_o deny_v the_o scripture_n and_o what_o i_o hold_v forth_o herein_o i_o do_v not_o contradict_v the_o apostle_n nor_o solomon_n word_n for_o its_o true_a the_o apostle_n say_v if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v no_o sin_n we_o deceive_v ourselves_o but_o be_v thou_o so_o blind_a that_o thou_o do_v not_o see_v he_o speak_v there_o of_o a_o state_n before_o confession_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o next_o word_n say_v the_o apostle_n if_o we_o confess_v our_o sin_n he_o be_v faithful_a and_o just_a to_o forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n and_o to_o cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o unrighteousness_n so_o i_o do_v agree_v with_o the_o apostle_n word_n and_o do_v not_o contradict_v they_o for_o i_o do_v say_v if_o any_o say_v they_o have_v no_o sin_n before_o they_o do_v confess_v their_o sin_n and_o forsake_v their_o sin_n and_o be_v cleanse_v from_o it_o i_o say_v they_o be_v liar_n and_o the_o truth_n not_o in_o they_o and_o i_o also_o say_v if_o that_o after_o a_o man_n have_v confess_v his_o sin_n and_o be_v cleanse_v from_o it_o and_o have_v his_o sin_n forgive_v he_o and_o witness_v that_o he_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n and_o do_v not_o commit_v sin_n i_o say_v he_o speak_v the_o truth_n also_o and_o the_o truth_n be_v in_o he_o and_o though_o solomon_n do_v say_v there_o be_v not_o a_o just_a man_n upon_o earth_n that_o do_v good_a and_o sin_n not_o yet_o be_v my_o affirmation_n true_a notwithstanding_o for_o solomon_n forget_v the_o lord_n and_o his_o heart_n go_v after_o many_o strange_a woman_n and_o become_v a_o transgressor_n and_o in_o that_o state_n do_v not_o know_v the_o birth_n bear_v of_o god_n which_o do_v not_o commit_v sin_n for_o he_o be_v but_o under_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o law_n which_o do_v not_o make_v perfect_a as_o pertain_v to_o the_o conscience_n and_o paradventure_o in_o that_o state_n he_o be_v err_v from_o god_n he_o do_v not_o see_v any_o that_o do_v not_o sin_n these_o thing_n will_v be_v plain_a to_o some_o though_o perhaps_o thou_o may_v shut_v thy_o eye_n against_o they_o and_o solomon_n be_v not_o our_o example_n in_o conversation_n i_o be_o sure_a nor_o hardly_o in_o doctrine_n and_o thus_o i_o have_v weigh_v thy_o text_n which_o thou_o seem_v to_o say_v before_o i_o have_v not_o weigh_v and_o my_o principle_n be_v prove_v sound_a and_o thou_o and_o thou_o too_o light_a and_o the_o wind_n of_o the_o lord_n will_v scatter_v they_o and_o p._n t._n confess_v every_o real_a hearted_a christian_n may_v be_v and_o be_v in_o scripture_n call_v perfect_a reply_n then_o wherefore_o do_v he_o oppose_v i_o who_o testify_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o he_o now_o confess_v even_o that_o every_o real_a hearted_a christian_n may_v be_v and_o be_v call_v perfect_a in_o scripture_n and_o be_v not_o he_o here_o guilty_a in_o that_o he_o charge_v i_o false_o pag._n the_o 21._o of_o his_o last_o with_o go_v round_n like_o unto_o a_o horse_n in_o a_o mill_n who_o sometime_o deny_v perfection_n and_o sometime_o confess_v it_o to_o be_v attain_v in_o this_o life_n but_o he_o be_v force_v in_o the_o end_n to_o confess_v to_o the_o truth_n and_o to_o justify_v i_o and_o also_o the_o scripture_n do_v testify_v the_o saint_n be_v already_o perfect_a and_o complete_a in_o christ_n while_o they_o be_v in_o the_o life_n upon_o earth_n col._n 1._o though_o there_o be_v a_o time_n wherein_o all_o the_o saint_n do_v complain_v of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n in_o their_o warfare_n and_o travel_v yet_o there_o be_v a_o state_n also_o wherein_o they_o have_v put_v off_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n and_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o righteousness_n and_o free_a from_o sin_n rom_n 6.22_o but_o p._n t._n show_v little_a experience_n in_o those_o state_n as_o of_o the_o travel_n under_o the_o body_n of_o death_n and_o also_o the_o victory_n over_o it_o and_o so_o what_o he_o speak_v be_v but_o by_o guess_n from_o other_o man_n word_n and_o then_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n if_o he_o err_v in_o judgement_n ●nd_v bring_v one_o scripture_n to_o contradict_v another_o not_o have_v the_o infallible_a spirit_n that_o give_v it_o forth_o nor_o feel_v the_o state_n nor_o the_o pass_v thorrow_o these_o condition_n declare_v therein_o for_o there_o be_v a_o time_n of_o travel_v and_o complain_v under_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n and_o its_o burden_n and_o a_o time_n of_o freedom_n from_o it_o and_o victory_n over_o it_o yea_o even_o in_o this_o life_n upon_o earth_n and_o whereas_o i_o say_v in_o my_o last_o many_o of_o the_o saint_n daily_o receive_v more_o and_o more_o of_o god_n wisdom_n and_o of_o his_o power_n and_o life_n reveal_v in_o they_o wherein_o they_o grow_v up_o to_o god_n from_o strength_n to_o strength_n now_o say_v he_o but_o whether_o he_o do_v not_o own_o some_o to_o have_v attain_v so_o high_a that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o addition_n be_v a_o query_n my_o soul_n say_v he_o have_v not_o be_v able_a to_o enter_v into_o his_o secret_n in_o this_o thing_n because_o my_o word_n be_v many_o of_o the_o saint_n etc._n etc._n reply_n my_o first_o word_n it_o seem_v he_o can_v contradict_v but_o own_v they_o to_o be_v true_a so_o i_o need_v not_o defend_v they_o only_o he_o suppose_v a_o question_n in_o which_o there_o be_v not_o much_o edification_n to_o be_v answer_v and_o i_o have_v no_o secret_n in_o what_o i_o speak_v for_o to_o the_o child_n of_o light_n my_o word_n be_v plain_a though_o to_o p._n t._n and_o such_o they_o may_v be_v parable_n and_o secret_n but_o as_o for_o my_o own_o particular_a i_o now_o here_o answer_v the_o question_n and_o further_a reply_n i_o do_v grow_v up_o in_o wisdom_n and_o knowledge_n daily_o and_o never_o know_v so_o much_o of_o p._n t._n deceit_n as_o now_o i_o do_v since_o and_o at_o that_o dispute_n the_o ground_n of_o this_o our_o debate_n so_o i_o think_v good_a to_o let_v he_o know_v that_o i_o do_v grow_v in_o truth_n which_o do_v daily_o discover_v more_o and_o more_o deceit_n in_o he_o and_o they_o that_o oppose_v truth_n and_o so_o also_o grow_v in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o his_o error_n of_o judgement_n and_o ignorance_n that_o i_o may_v condemn_v it_o and_o judge_v it_o and_o whereas_o i_o say_v the_o light_n which_o every_o man_n be_v lighten_v withal_o by_o christ_n be_v sufficient_a to_o bring_v up_o every_o man_n to_o believe_v in_o christ_n that_o love_v the_o light_n and_o walk_n in_o it_o and_o unto_o such_o be_v grace_n add_v and_o increase_v daily_o etc._n etc._n as_o in_o the_o 16_o pag._n of_o my_o first_o more_o appear_v in_o opposition_n to_o this_o to_o over_o throw_v it_o as_o he_o suppose_v he_o have_v nominate_v that_o scripture_n 1_o cor._n 2.14_o the_o natural_a man_n perceive_v not_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o they_o be_v foolishness_n to_o he_o neither_o can_v he_o know_v they_o because_o they_o be_v spiritual_o discren_v etc._n etc._n reply_n now_o my_o word_n be_v true_a and_o no_o contradiction_n to_o the_o apostle_n word_n except_o to_o such_o as_o be_v blind_a that_o can_v discern_v between_o light_n and_o darkness_n and_o such_o will_v judge_v false_o and_o out_o of_o a_o evil_a mind_n make_v a_o appearance_n of_o seem_a difference_n where_o there_o be_v none_o for_o the_o light_n that_o light_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n be_v christ_n john_n 1.9_o and_o that_o christ_n the_o light_n that_o light_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o word_n be_v sufficient_a to_o bring_v every_o man_n that_o love_v the_o light_n and_o walk_v in_o it_o to_o believe_v in_o christ_n these_o be_v my_o word_n and_o the_o intent_n of_o my_o mind_n and_o will_v any_o man_n that_o be_v not_o stark_o blind_a make_v any_o opposition_n against_o this_o doctrine_n or_o bring_v a_o scripture_n to_o prove_v the_o contrary_a which_o scripture_n i_o own_o and_o do_v no_o way_n contradict_v for_o the_o natural_a man_n do_v
