thou_o name_v the_o upper_a way_n which_o thou_o say_v be_v by_o philosophy_n the_o tradition_n of_o man_n rudiment_n of_o the_o world_n and_o science_n false_o so_o call_v and_o praise_v be_v god_n thou_o be_v as_o it_o be_v force_v by_o the_o light_n in_o thy_o conscience_n to_o acquit_v we_o from_o be_v of_o this_o number_n but_o true_o the_o light_n in_o our_o conscience_n tell_v we_o

yet_o root_v and_o settle_v in_o the_o truth_n and_o grace_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n then_o i_o say_v thou_o need_v not_o fear_v any_o of_o thy_o follower_n to_o be_v deceive_v on_o this_o

already_o but_o what_o doctrine_n john_n reynolds_n do_v judge_v in_o these_o he_o call_v silly_a seducer_n and_o quaker_n to_o be_v amiss_o and_o by_o these_o two_o man_n he_o write_v unto_o to_o be_v take_v heed_n of_o may_v gather_v out_o of_o these_o query_n to_o instance_n some_o 1._o because_o they_o say_v christ_n light_v every_o man_n with_o a_o sufficient_a light_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n 2._o because_o they_o say_v that_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o man_n be_v the_o true_a and_o certain_a trier_n of_o all_o spirit_n 3._o because_o they_o say_v christ_n himself_o and_o not_o the_o empty_a declaration_n without_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n 4._o because_o they_o say_v christ_n the_o better_a hope_n be_v come_v sinless_a perfection_n through_o he_o be_v attainable_a here_o 5._o because_o they_o say_v judgement_n be_v commit_v to_o the_o saint_n even_o whilst_o they_o be_v in_o the_o body_n and_o therefore_o such_o may_v judge_v and_o yet_o say_v they_o it_o be_v not_o flesh_n but_o spirit_n that_o judge_v all_o thing_n 6._o because_o they_o make_v conscience_n of_o say_v thou_o and_o thou_o to_o a_o particular_a which_o be_v the_o plain_a language_n 7._o because_o they_o say_v that_o all_o honour_n and_o glory_n and_o worship_n be_v to_o be_v give_v to_o god_n alone_o and_o not_o to_o any_o creature_n 8._o because_o they_o say_v the_o true_a church_n be_v in_o god_n and_o so_o no_o unrighteous_a one_o in_o it_o or_o of_o it_o and_o so_o can_v neither_o call_v the_o wicked_a god_n church_n nor_o a_o house_n of_o wood_n and_o stone_n his_o church_n 9_o because_o they_o can_v own_v the_o world_n sprinkle_v of_o infant_n with_o a_o little_a outward_a water_n for_o christ_n baptism_n and_o because_o they_o can_v own_v that_o for_o a_o right_a communion_n which_o be_v in_o sin_n and_o who_o eat_v bread_n and_o drink_n wine_n in_o remembrance_n of_o a_o come_v of_o christ_n which_o they_o say_v shall_v never_o

and_o in_o the_o next_o query_n thou_o come_v over_o with_o these_o thing_n again_o say_v how_o can_v those_o person_n be_v faithful_a to_o christ_n jesus_n and_o obedient_a to_o his_o gospel_n that_o
