their_o everlasting_a peace_n 6._o that_o which_o i_o will_v chief_o and_o in_o the_o last_o place_n entreat_v for_o thy_o soul_n safety_n be_v this_o expose_v not_o thyself_o to_o the_o temptation_n of_o seducer_n the_o soul_n be_v more_o precious_a then_o to_o be_v hazard_v upon_o the_o mistake_a sense_n of_o the_o apostle_n word_n 1_o thess_n 5._o 21._o to_o try_v all_o thing_n thou_o need_v

therefore_o the_o meaning_n of_o this_o place_n must_v be_v that_o we_o be_v to_o examine_v the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v deliver_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o scripture_n whether_o they_o be_v build_v
