because_o our_o sin_n be_v not_o remit_v except_o we_o persist_v in_o faith_n and_o repentance_n if_o then_o we_o will_v that_o god_n remit_v and_o pardon_v we_o our_o sin_n we_o must_v stand_v steadfast_a in_o faith_n and_o repentance_n but_o steadfast_a we_o shall_v not_o stand_v if_o we_o be_v tempt_v above_o our_o strength_n if_o we_o fall_v into_o sin_n if_o last_o we_o revoult_v from_o god_n himself_o objection_n we_o be_v not_o to_o pray_v against_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v good_a and_o profitable_a for_o us._n the_o temptation_n of_o god_n as_o trial_n disease_n poverty_n send_v of_o false_a prophet_n be_v good_a thing_n and_o profitable_a unto_o we_o we_o be_v not_o therefore_o to_o pray_v against_o the_o temptation_n of_o god_n answer_n the_o minor_a contain_v a_o fallacy_n of_o the_o accident_n we_o be_v not_o to_o pray_v against_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v good_a and_o profitable_a that_o be_v which_o be_v by_o themselves_o profitable_a or_o good_a but_o affliction_n trial_n cross_n and_o other_o temptation_n be_v by_o themselves_o evil_a and_o unprofitable_a and_o not_o good_a but_o yet_o they_o be_v good_a and_o profit_v we_o only_o by_o a_o accident_n which_o accident_n be_v the_o mercy_n of_o god_n accompany_v they_o without_o which_o they_o be_v not_o only_o not_o profitable_a but_o also_o a_o part_n of_o death_n &_o a_o most_o present_a way_n to_o

the_o cross_n itself_o &_o affliction_n which_o be_v by_o themselves_o evil_a because_o they_o destroy_v nature_n so_o also_o we_o pray_v against_o death_n as_o be_v evil_a by_o itself_o and_o christ_n himself_o also_o pray_v against_o it_o matth._n 26.39_o let_v this_o cup_n pass_v from_o i_o nevertheless_o not_o as_o i_o will_v but_o as_o thou_o will_v as_o than_o death_n be_v a_o
