cause_n enough_o to_o make_v a_o stoppage_n in_o his_o proceed_n of_o mercy_n thus_o the_o doctrine_n stand_v firm_a when_o god_n be_v in_o a_o way_n of_o mercy_n towards_o his_o people_n if_o they_o do_v sin_n against_o he_o their_o sin_n may_v make_v a_o stoppage_n in_o his_o proceed_n by_o way_n of_o application_n use_v hence_o you_o may_v see_v what_o the_o reason_n be_v why_o there_o be_v a_o

of_o england_n answ_n you_o will_v find_v for_o answer_n if_o you_o look_v into_o scripture_n that_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a stoppage_n of_o mercy_n final_a and_o present_v final_a as_o god_n be_v in_o a_o way_n of_o mercy_n towards_o saul_n and_o be_v about_o to_o settle_v the_o kingdom_n upon_o he_o and_o his_o posterity_n for_o ever_o but_o he_o sin_v and_o the_o lord_n turn_v away_o from_o

how_o one_o after_o another_o they_o do_v melt_v 2._o and_o because_o god_n have_v raise_v up_o instrement_n that_o be_v unwearyed_a in_o his_o service_n work_v night_n and_o day_n and_o be_v unwearyed_a in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n 3._o as_o also_o because_o that_o the_o type_n of_o this_o work_n do_v speak_v as_o much_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n come_n out_o of_o babylon_n and_o

let_v and_o hindrance_n by_o tobiah_n and_o sanballat_n and_o other_o they_o can_v never_o hinder_v it_o full_o but_o it_o recover_v its_o self_n and_o be_v drive_v on_o so_o in_o this_o build_n and_o work_n of_o reformation_n though_o the_o tobiah'ss_n and_o sanballat_n of_o the_o time_n may_v cause_v the_o work_n to_o cease_v for_o a_o time_n the_o building_n shall_v get_v up_o and_o shall_v not_o full_o cease_v but_o the_o work_n of_o reformation_n shall_v be_v drive_v on_o in_o the_o despite_n of_o all_o the_o enemy_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o a_o final_a stop_n now_o make_v in_o
