of_o thing_n and_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v easy_o be_v convince_v what_o be_v the_o term_n 1._o there_o be_v the_o same_o term_n and_o condition_n of_o justification_n and_o of_o salvation_n

and_o we_o need_v no_o more_o for_o heaven_n than_o right_a to_o it_o do_v but_o get_v and_o keep_v right_a to_o heaven_n which_o be_v justification_n and_o we_o need_v no_o more_o on_o our_o part_n as_o for_o possession_n that_o be_v god_n work_n by_o his_o angel_n carry_v away_o soul_n raise_v body_n many_o worthy_a man_n have_v say_v that_o repentance_n sincere_a obedience_n be_v only_o for_o
