will_v tell_v i_o than_o we_o must_v say_v christ_n be_v a_o door_n a_o way_n a_o vine_n and_o the_o bread_n be_v his_o body_n etc._n etc._n but_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o what_o i_o be_o speak_v

of_o they_o to_o come_v to_o god_n what_o will_v not_o the_o lust_n of_o contradict_v persuade_v man_n to_o now_o i_o will_v know_v of_o any_o man_n will_v you_o believe_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o

there_o use_v be_v it_o not_o enough_o that_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n you_o will_v say_v but_o be_v it_o of_o the_o whole_a world_n yes_o it_o say_v he_o be_v the_o

for_o all_o the_o world_n but_o will_v you_o say_v it_o say_v not_o for_o every_o man_n yes_o that_o it_o do_v he_o taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n but_o you_o may_v say_v it_o mean_v all_o the_o

to_o bear_v down_o the_o evidence_n of_o of_o many_o express_a text_n of_o scripture_n be_v not_o a_o matter_n of_o a_o dangerous_a nature_n both_o symptomatical_o and_o effectual_o do_v it_o not_o signify_v a_o defect_n in_o our_o belief_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o scripture_n or_o at_o least_o of_o our_o reverend_a esteem_n of_o it_o when_o we_o dare_v use_v it_o as_o a_o leaden_a rule_n and_o nose_n of_o wax_n as_o the_o papist_n presumptuous_o call_v it_o he_o that_o can_v think_v it_o will_v endure_v such_o bend_n be_v in_o danger_n of_o think_v it_o may_v endure_v break_v have_v it_o not_o too_o plain_a a_o tendency_n to_o infidelity_n and_o disobedience_n it_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o word_n that_o must_v preserve_v we_o from_o both_o and_o he_o that_o think_v so_o mean_o of_o the_o scripture_n as_o that_o it_o will_v patient_o endure_v such_o violence_n and_o stretch_v be_v in_o great_a danger_n of_o be_v draw_v to_o question_n whether_o it_o be_v god_n word_n or_o no_o and_o of_o venture_v over_o its_o bound_n in_o practical_o in_o case_n of_o temptation_n for_o what_o have_v we_o to_o persuade_v we_o that_o christ_n be_v the_o eternal_a god_n but_o plain_a scripture_n and_o be_v it_o plain_o in_o this_o than_o in_o its_o affirm_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o all_o tender_a conscionable_a christian_n shall_v be_v as_o fearful_a to_o adventure_v against_o the_o plain_a meaning_n of_o scripture_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o faith_n as_o to_o adventure_v against_o its_o plain_a precept_n and_o prohibition_n in_o matter_n of_o practice_n and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o when_o god_n say_v so_o express_o that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o and_o taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n and_o be_v the_o ranfom_n for_o all_o and_o the_o
