A44806 Some of the misteries of Gods kingdome declared, as they have been revealed by the spirit through faith for the information of all such who have erred for lack of knowledge in their judgements, and have perished for lack of understanding ... : also for the confirmation of such who are made partakers of the like precious faith / by one who is made partaker of the riches of his grace, and of the salvation which is in Christ Jesus revealed through the spirit, called Francis Howgill.

this_o make_v not_o his_o glory_n void_a who_o be_v the_o express_a image_n of_o the_o father_n full_a of_o grace_n and_o truth_n the_o disciple_n see_v it_o and_o bear_v record_n of_o he_o who_o be_v
