together_o three_o holy_a conversation_n spring_v from_o faith_n if_o you_o have_v learned_a christ_n as_o the_o truth_n be_v in_o he_o you_o have_v so_o learn_v he_o as_o to_o put_v off_o the_o old_a man_n and_o to_o put_v on_o the_o new_a faith_n work_v by_o love_n even_o as_o a_o tree_n have_v both_o his_o leaf_n and_o fruit_n and_o as_o if_o a_o tree_n shall_v be_v change_v from_o one_o kind_n to_o another_o the_o leaf_n and_o fruit_n shall_v likewise_o be_v change_v as_o if_o a_o pear_n tree_n shall_v be_v make_v a_o apple_n tree_n it_o will_v have_v leaf_n and_o fruit_n agree_v to_o the_o change_n make_v in_o it_o so_o man_n by_o faith_n have_v his_o hart_n purify_v make_v a_o tree_n of_o righteousness_n he_o have_v his_o leaf_n and_o fruit_n leaf_n of_o profession_n fruit_n of_o

that_o their_o belief_n be_v not_o true_a such_o as_o do_v unite_v they_o with_o christ_n for_o whosoever_o be_v a_o true_a believer_n be_v a_o saint_n whosoever_o be_v by_o faith_n in_o christ_n be_v a_o new_a creature_n we_o will_v be_v loath_a to_o take_v a_o slip_n or_o be_v deceive_v with_o false_a commodity_n in_o a_o twelve_o pound_n matter_n let_v we_o be_v here_o no_o less_o diligent_a
