they_o be_v give_v by_o the_o same_o covenant_n and_o on_o the_o same_o condition_n as_o the_o special_a blessing_n so_o that_o though_o they_o may_v have_v right_a to_o they_o at_o present_a on_o

to_o the_o faithful_a so_o that_o in_o the_o conclusion_n i_o say_v that_o though_o wicked_a man_n have_v many_o promise_n from_o god_n especial_o the_o great_a conditional_a promise_n of_o life_n if_o they_o will_v repent_v and_o believe_v and_o though_o they_o be_v also_o oblige_v by_o their_o own_o imperfect_a equivocal_a covenant_v with_o god_n yet_o god_n remain_v still_o unoblige_v to_o

covenant_v with_o god_n and_o god_n not_o actual_o engage_v in_o covenant_n with_o they_o for_o while_o the_o condition_n be_v unperformed_a there_o be_v no_o actual_a obligation_n on_o the_o
