be_v this_o that_o according_a as_o a_o christian_n man_n go_v perfect_a himself_o in_o his_o christian_n custom_n so_o he_o go_v clear_v himself_o in_o his_o christian_n conception_n nay_o i_o hold_v

which_o they_o love_v god_n above_o every_o thing_n and_o they_o love_v their_o neighbour_n as_o themselves_o and_o i_o say_v far_o that_o as_o whilst_o they_o who_o approve_v those_o three_o

able_a to_o separate_v he_o from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o that_o which_o he_o show_v in_o the_o outward_a be_v see_v by_o the_o miracle_n which_o he_o do_v and_o by_o the_o many_o people_n that_o he_o convert_v and_o i_o understand_v that_o the_o power_n which_o s._n paul_n feel_v in_o the_o inward_a be_v much_o great_a than_o that_o which_o he_o show_v in_o the_o outward_a i_o will_v
