col._n 2.3_o and_o 9_o so_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o open_a face_n of_o god_n after_o a_o sort_n do_v shine_v unto_o we_o in_o christ_n not_o that_o there_o be_v none_o or_o a_o doubtful_a knowledge_n of_o god_n before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n but_o because_o now_o he_o have_v manifest_v himself_o more_o full_o &_o as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o marvellous_a cléerenes_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o paul_n say_v 2._o cor._n 4.6_o that_o god_n who_o in_o time_n pass_v command_v the_o light_n to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n in_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n have_v now_o shine_v in_o our_o heart_n by_o the_o light_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o his_o glory_n in_o the_o face_n of_o christ_n and_o we_o must_v note_v that_o this_o gift_n be_v peculiar_a to_o god_n elect_v only_o christ_n indeed_o have_v indifferent_o set_v forth_o to_o all_o the_o light_n of_o his_o gospel_n but_o all_o have_v not_o see_v mind_n to_o behold_v but_o rather_o satan_n do_v spread_v the_o veil_n of_o blindness_n before_o the_o eye_n of_o many_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n understand_v the_o light_n which_o christ_n kindle_v within_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o child_n and_o which_o once_o be_v kindle_v be_v never_o put_v out_o albeit_o at_o some_o time_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v in_o some_o that_o it_o be_v hinder_v for_o a_o time_n we_o be_v in_o he_o which_o be_v true_a by_o this_o word_n he_o do_v teach_v how_o effectual_a that_o knowledge_n be_v whereof_o he_o have_v make_v mention_n that_o be_v because_o by_o it_o we_o be_v graft_v into_o christ_n &_o make_v one_o with_o god_n for_o it_o have_v a_o lively_a root_n and_o true_o settle_v in_o our_o heart_n whereby_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o god_n live_v in_o we_o &_o we_o in_o he_o because_o he_o say_v without_o note_n of_o couple_v together_o we_o be_v in_o he_o that_o be_v true_a in_o his_o son_n he_o seem_v to_o express_v the_o manner_n of_o our_o conjunction_n with_o god_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v that_o we_o be_v in_o god_n by_o christ_n this_o same_o be_v very_a god_n albeit_o the_o arrian_n have_v go_v about_o to_o abuse_v this_o place_n and_o certain_a at_o this_o day_n subscribe_v unto_o they_o yet_o here_o we_o have_v a_o excellent_a witness_n of_o the_o divinity_n of_o christ_n the_o arrian_n refer_v this_o to_o the_o father_n as_o if_o the_o apostle_n shall_v again_o say_v that_o he_o be_v true_a god_n but_o the_o repetition_n shall_v be_v too_o fruitless_a he_o have_v twice_o already_o testify_v that_o he_o be_v the_o true_a god_n who_o appear_v unto_o we_o in_o christ_n to_o what_o end_n shall_v he_o by_o and_o by_o add_v this_o be_v true_a god_n but_o it_o agree_v fit_o unto_o christ_n for_o after_o that_o he_o have_v teach_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o guide_n by_o who_o direction_n we_o be_v lead_v unto_o god_n now_o for_o amplification_n sake_n he_o affirm_v that_o christ_n be_v that_o god_n lest_o we_o shall_v think_v that_o he_o be_v to_o be_v seek_v a_o far_o off_o and_o the_o epithet_n of_o eternal_a life_n confirm_v the_o same_o indeed_o he_o speak_v both_o of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o that_o he_o be_v true_a god_n and_o eternal_a life_n i_o ommit_v that_o the_o relative_a outos_fw-la he_o use_v to_o be_v restrain_v to_o the_o next_z person_n this_o i_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v proper_o call_v eternal_a life_n &_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o this_o manner_n of_o speak_v be_v usual_a with_o john_n the_o sum_n be_v when_o we_o have_v christ_n that_o we_o enjoy_v the_o true_a and_o eternal_a god_n because_o he_o be_v no_o
