shall_v be_v more_o happy_a than_o both_o these_o because_o they_o want_v the_o say_v holy_a spirit_n immediate_o inspire_v teach_v and_o lead_v they_o this_o be_v a_o wonderful_a paradox_n but_o most_o false_a for_o the_o christian_n be_v not_o more_o happy_a than_o the_o jew_n because_o out_o of_o the_o scripture_n bare_o they_o can_v know_v the_o will_n of_o god_n for_o the_o jew_n have_v the_o scripture_n also_o contain_v all_o the_o head_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o their_o religion_n clear_o enough_o but_o for_o this_o cause_n true_a christian_n be_v more_o happy_a than_o those_o

consult_v either_o priest_n or_o high_a priest_n because_o they_o have_v a_o most_o excellent_a priest_n yea_o a_o high_a priest_n more_o high_a than_o the_o heaven_n or_o the_o angel_n that_o dwell_v in_o they_o to_o wit_n jesus_n christ_n dwell_v in_o their_o heart_n who_o by_o his_o spirit_n teach_v they_o all_o thing_n and_o do_v clear_o and_o without_o all_o doubtfulness_n answer_v they_o i●_n all_o thing_n needful_a to_o be_v know_v by_o they_o and_o who_o do_v also_o clear_o and_o infallible_o expound_v the_o scripture_n unto_o they_o and_o therefore_o true_a christian_n have_v no_o
