all_o the_o doctrine_n christ_n have_v teach_v beside_o this_o that_o jesus_n be_v the_o christ_n or_o if_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o know_v they_o we_o be_v safe_a though_o we_o refuse_v to_o believe_v they_o and_o make_v that_o use_n of_o they_o christ_n appoint_v for_o we_o do_v believe_v most_o firm_o that_o jesus_n be_v the_o christ_n and_o so_o we_o be_v true_a christian_n and_o therefore_o safe_a and_o need_v not_o trouble_v ourselves_o about_o know_v or_o believe_v any_o thing_n more_o nay_o now_o you_o be_v out_o most_o dangerous_o and_o wretched_o out_o believe_v as_o much_o as_o you_o can_v beside_o this_o article_n your_o belief_n will_v not_o make_v you_o a_o true_a christian_n it_o be_v the_o right_a knowledge_n or_o belief_n of_o this_o article_n that_o

and_o to_o assent_v unto_o and_o make_v a_o right_a use_n of_o what_o he_o attain_v to_o know_v christ_n have_v reveal_v and_o if_o you_o do_v not_o do_v thus_o you_o do_v not_o approve_v yourselves_o true_a christian_n you_o do_v not_o acquit_v yourselves_o as_o true_a christian_n ought_v and_o must_v acquit_v themselves_o if_o you_o either_o neglect_v to_o inquire_v after_o and_o to_o use_v your_o honest_a endeavour_n to_o know_v what_o christ_n have_v reveal_v or_o refuse_v to_o assent_v to_o and_o make_v a_o good_a use_n of_o what_o you_o know_v he_o have_v reveal_v you_o have_v just_a

teach_v and_o reveal_v so_o plain_o so_o clear_o so_o distinct_o you_o can_v but_o know_v some_o of_o they_o if_o you_o serious_o endeavour_v to_o know_v what_o he_o have_v reveal_v and_o what_o you_o know_v he_o have_v reveal_v you_o must_v assent_v to_o and_o make_v use_n of_o if_o you_o do_v right_o know_v and_o believe_v he_o to_o be_v the_o only_a saviour_n of_o sinner_n if_o it_o be_v now_o ask_v what_o be_v those_o particular_a point_n or_o article_n christ_n have_v reveal_v which_o be_v necessary_a for_o christian_n to_o endeavour_v to_o know_v and_o which_o be_v know_v to_o be_v reveal_v by_o he_o they_o must_v indispensable_o assent_v to_o and_o make_v use_n of_o i_o answer_v that_o what_o christ_n have_v reveal_v be_v propound_v to_o we_o in_o certain_a word_n which_o make_v distinct_a sentence_n and_o proposition_n and_o be_v thus_o consider_v they_o be_v object_n of_o assent_n and_o matter_n of_o faith_n though_o when_o we_o consider_v though_o nature_n of_o the_o truth_n thus_o propound_v and_o their_o special_a intendment_n they_o may_v be_v convenient_o reduce_v to_o particular_a head_n to_o which_o particular_a denomination_n may_v be_v assign_v some_o of_o these_o i_o will_v name_v together_o with_o some_o particular_a proposition_n christ_n have_v teach_v which_o proper_o belong_v to_o these_o head_n as_o one_a those_o proposition_n which_o describe_v his_o person_n and_o instruct_v we_o who_o he_o be_v who_o god_n do_v send_v and_o commission_n to_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o sinner_n as_o that_o he_o be_v god_n the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o only_o beget_v of_o the_o father_n god_n over_o all_o bless_v for_o ever_o john_n 1._o 1._o rom._n 9.5_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o the_o messiah_n be_v often_o use_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n as_o reciprocal_a term_n not_o as_o if_o the_o strict_a idea_n the_o term_n messiah_n do_v stand_v for_o be_v the_o same_o the_o son_n of_o god_n do_v stand_v for_o but_o because_o he_o who_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v the_o messiah_n and_o he_o who_o be_v the_o messiah_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n both_o these_o proposition_n i_o believe_v because_o i_o find_v that_o christ_n jesus_n and_o his_o apostle_n by_o his_o order_n do_v reach_v they_o i_o do_v not_o think_v that_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n because_o he_o be_v the_o messiah_n as_o the_o socinian_o assert_v nor_o yet_o that_o he_o be_v the_o messiah_n because_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o some_o affirm_v in_o opposition_n to_o the_o former_a but_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v the_o messiah_n because_o the_o father_n do_v not_o think_v fit_a to_o commission_n any_o but_o his_o own_o son_n to_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o sinner_n when_o a_o true_a christian_a understand_v that_o christ_n jesus_n have_v teach_v that_o he_o be_v god_n he_o must_v assent_v unto_o it_o and_o endeavour_v to_o use_v it_o for_o the_o nourish_a strengthen_v and_o confirm_v of_o his_o faith_n in_o he_o to_o assure_v he_o that_o he_o be_v all-sufficient_a to_o fulfil_v the_o work_n he_o have_v undertake_v and_o to_o which_o he_o be_v commission_v and_o to_o direct_v and_o justify_v his_o pay_v
