messiah_n jesus_n christ_n that_o shall_v be_v bear_v of_o his_o seed_n but_o also_o this_o other_o promise_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v 7._o be_v gen._n 17.4_o 7._o father_n of_o many_o nation_n and_o that_o he_o will_v be_v a_o god_n to_o he_o and_o to_o his_o seed_n after_o he_o and_o these_o promise_v the_o apostle_n call_v 3.8_o call_v gal._n 3.8_o the_o gospel_n preach_v before_o unto_o

but_o he_o the_o second_o reason_n be_v the_o attempt_n of_o the_o dragon_n at_o his_o birth_n for_o that_o ancient_a dragon_n will_v have_v destroy_v he_o in_o his_o very_a cradle_n by_o the_o mean_n of_o herod_n 20._o herod_n matth._n 2.19_o 20._o who_o seek_v his_o life_n so_o that_o christ_n be_v that_o true_a individual_a person_n promise_v under_o the_o name_n of_o the_o woman_n seed_n but_o there_o be_v beside_o her_o the_o remnant_n of_o her_o seed_n for_o when_o the_o dragon_n can_v hurt_v neither_o the_o manchild_n nor_o the_o woman_n he_o go_v 12.17_o go_v rev._n 12.17_o to_o make_v

have_v not_o lead_v we_o out_o of_o our_o way_n but_o all_o along_o show_v we_o a_o distinguish_a mercy_n of_o god_n upon_o some_o which_o other_o be_v exclude_v from_o and_o that_o nothing_o of_o a_o

and_o this_o have_v by_o degree_n lead_v we_o to_o the_o great_a point_n of_o vocation_n and_o election_n which_o st._n paul_n do_v treat_v of_o in_o the_o last_o quote_v place_n all_o which_o
