must_v be_v in_o we_o too_o for_o the_o devil_n dwell_v in_o hell_n wheresoever_o he_o be_v he_o be_v in_o hell_n and_o can_v come_v out_o of_o it_o yes_o when_o he_o possess_v a_o man_n he_o dwell_v in_o hell_n viz._n in_o the_o anger_n of_o god_n in_o that_o man_n 12._o therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o consider_v well_o what_o man_n be_v and_o how_o he_o be_v a_o man_n and_o then_o we_o may_v perceive_v that_o a_o true_a christian_a be_v not_o a_o mere_a historical_a new_a man_n as_o if_o it_o be_v enough_o for_o we_o outward_o to_o confess_v christ_n and_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o have_v pay_v the_o ransom_n for_o n_n for_o righteousness_n avail_v nothing_o if_o it_o be_v impute_v from_o without_o that_o be_v by_o believe_v only_o that_o it_o be_v impute_v but_o a_o innate_a righteousness_n or_o the_o righteousness_n bear_v in_o we_o in_o which_o we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n that_o avail_v 13._o and_o as_o the_o flesh_n must_v die_v so_o also_o the_o life_n and_o will_n must_v die_v from_o sin_n and_o be_v as_o a_o child_n know_v nothing_o but_o long_v after_o the_o mother_n which_o bring_v it_o forth_o so_o must_v also_o the_o will_n of_o a_o christian_a enter_v again_o into_o its_o mother_n viz._n into_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n and_o become_v a_o child_n in_o itself_o in_o its_o own_o will_n and_o power_n have_v its_o will_n and_o desire_v incline_v and_o direct_v only_o towards_o its_o mother_n and_o a_o new_a will_n and_o obedience_n in_o righteousness_n which_o will_v sin_n no_o more_o must_v rise_v from_o death_n out_o of_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ._n 14._o for_o that_o will_v be_v not_o bear_v anew_o which_o desire_v and_o admit_v vanity_n into_o itself_o and_o yet_o there_o remain_v a_o will_n which_o long_v after_o vanity_n and_o sin_v in_o the_o newborn_a or_o regenerate_v man._n therefore_o the_o image_n of_o man_n must_v well_o be_v consider_v and_o how_o the_o new-birth_n come_v to_o pass_v see_v it_o be_v not_o wrought_v in_o the_o mortal_a flesh_n and_o yet_o true_o and_o real_o in_o we_o in_o flesh_n and_o blood_n in_o water_n and_o spirit_n as_o the_o scripture_n say_v 15._o we_o shall_v therefore_o right_o consider_v what_o kind_n of_o man_n it_o be_v in_o we_o that_o be_v the_o member_n of_o christ_n and_o temple_n of_o god_n who_o dwell_v in_o heaven_n and_o then_o also_o what_o kind_n of_o man_n it_o be_v that_o the_o devil_n rule_v and_o drive_v for_o he_o can_v meddle_v with_o the_o temple_n of_o christ_n nor_o do_v he_o care_v much_o for_o the_o mortal_a flesh_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v not_o three_o man_n in_o one_o another_o for_o all_o make_v but_o one_o man_n 16._o now_o if_o we_o will_v consider_v this_o right_o we_o must_v consider_v time_n and_o eternity_n and_o how_o they_o be_v in_o one_o another_o also_o light_a and_o darkness_n good_a and_o evil_n but_o especial_o the_o original_n of_o man_n this_o may_v thus_o be_v consider_v 17._o the_o outward_a world_n with_o the_o star_n and_o four_o element_n wherein_o man_n and_o all_o creature_n live_v neîther_o be_v nor_o be_v call_v god_n indeed_o god_n dwell_v in_o it_o but_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o outward_a world_n comprehend_v he_o not_o 18._o we_o see_v also_o that_o the_o light_n shine_v in_o darkness_n and_o the_o darkness_n comprehend_v not_o the_o light_n and_o yet_o they_o both_o dwell_v in_o one_o another_o the_o four_o element_n be_v also_o a_o example_n of_o this_o which_o in_o their_o original_n be_v but_o one_o element_n which_o î_v neither_o hot_a

fire_n t_v produce_v water_n and_o that_o the_o original_n of_o fire_n can_v be_v in_o water_n if_o we_o do_v not_o see_v it_o with_o our_o eye_n in_o tempest_n of_o thunder_a lightning_n and_o rain_n
