make_v sure_a of_o the_o part_n of_o the_o elect_n as_o by_o nature_n mutable_a and_o as_o so_o continual_o and_o grievous_o sinful_a so_o as_o so_o far_o as_o it_o lay_v in_o they_o they_o quite_o

faith_n and_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n and_o at_o last_o their_o glorification_n in_o like_a manner_n wherefore_o these_o effect_n in_o we_o that_o be_v of_o the_o elect_n admit_v a_o alteration_n

these_o effect_n of_o predestination_n shall_v be_v quite_o without_o effect_n and_o therefore_o have_v dependence_n on_o god_n our_o salvation_n be_v most_o safe_a have_v a_o view_n hereof_o in_o
