and_o i_o know_v who_o i_o have_v choose_v john_n 13.18_o but_o in_o respect_n of_o ourselves_o it_o be_v uncertain_a and_o therefore_o we_o must_v strive_v to_o make_v the_o same_o sure_a by_o good_a work_n 2._o pet._n 1.10_o these_o be_v the_o way_n to_o come_v to_o heaven_n though_o they_o be_v not_o the_o cause_n why_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o heaven_n therefore_o we_o must_v keep_v the_o way_n if_o ever_o we_o mean_v to_o come_v to_o heaven_n for_o as_o we_o be_v ordain_v to_o the_o end_n so_o be_v we_o ordain_v to_o the_o mean_n which_o bring_v we_o to_o that_o end_n if_o god_n have_v predestinate_a any_o to_o eternal_a life_n he_o have_v also_o predestine_v they_o to_o the_o mean_n whereby_o they_o must_v attain_v eternal_a life_n that_o be_v faith_n &_o a_o good_a conscience_n 1._o tim._n 5.19_o therefore_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o whoso_o ever_o be_v to_o be_v save_v shall_v at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o before_o they_o depart_v out_o of_o this_o life_n be_v call_v

be_v speak_v of_o christ_n in_o special_a psal._n 45._o thou_o have_v love_v righteousness_n and_o hate_a iniquity_n must_v be_v verify_v and_o in_o some_o measure_n accomplish_v in_o all_o the_o
