even_o so_o may_v grace_v also_o reign_v by_o righteousness_n unto_o eternal_a life_n by_o jesus_n christ_n how_o have_v the_o lord_n by_o the_o unspeakable_a evidence_n off_o his_o truth_n prove_v to_o man_n conscience_n that_o will_v believe_v his_o word_n that_o he_o do_v not_o leave_v &_o forsake_v adam_n nor_o for_o his_o sin_n any_o mankind_n under_o that_o condemnation_n which_o by_o

as_o adam_n be_v free_v from_o that_o sin_n so_o all_o mankind_n be_v free_v and_o as_o the_o promise_n off_o christ_n the_o promise_a seed_n be_v make_v &_o send_v to_o adam_n even_o so_o be_v he_o promise_v &_o send_v to_o all_o the_o world_n for_o the_o same_o end_n which_o be_v to_o save_v he_o as_o the_o lord_n show_v by_o his_o own_o word_n iff_o he_o may_v be_v believe_v &_o the_o lord_n

christ_n be_v not_o promise_v &_o send_v to_o all_o the_o world_n for_o the_o same_o end_n for_o the_o which_o he_o be_v promise_v and_o send_v to_o adam_n which_o be_v to_o save_v the_o world_n &_o as_o he_o be_v promise_v &_o send_v for_o the_o same_o end_n to_o all_o the_o world_n as_o to_o adam_n so_o be_v he_o promise_v &_o send_v under_o the_o same_o condition_n to_o all_o the_o world_n

where_o be_v now_o this_o conceive_a device_n that_o god_n shall_v decree_v to_o leave_v &_o forsake_v some_o that_o they_o may_v perish_v who_o have_v tell_v man_n off_o such_o a_o decree_n that_o god_n have_v or_o do_v with_o hold_v his_o grace_n from_o any_o &_o so_o leave_v they_o to_o sin_n and_o to_o perish_v for_o their_o sin_n where_o have_v they_o find_v it_o out_o &_o learn_v it_o so_o
