either_o the_o doctrine_n which_o you_o seem_v to_o teach_v that_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o such_o man_n to_o be_v save_v at_o the_o hour_n of_o their_o death_n be_v false_a or_o else_o you_o must_v

understand_v and_o believe_v it_o to_o be_v true_a can_v avoid_v desperation_n at_o the_o hour_n of_o death_n when_o he_o see_v that_o the_o extirpation_n of_o all_o vicious_a habit_n be_v impossible_a and_o yet_o necessary_a to_o true_a repentance_n and_o salvation_n of_o his_o soul_n protestant_n be_v wont_a to_o receive_v the_o communion_n at_o the_o hour_n of_o their_o death_n which_o i_o suppose_v you_o will_v say_v ought_v not_o to_o be_v do_v without_o true_a repentance_n of_o their_o sin_n unless_o you_o will_v suppose_v all_o protestant_n at_o the_o hour_n of_o their_o

that_o time_n to_o attain_v your_o repentance_n by_o extirpation_n of_o all_o vicious_a habit_n in_o your_o book_n of_o common-prayer_n in_o the_o order_n of_o visit_v the_o sick_a it_o be_v say_v

of_o difficulty_n and_o time_n or_o how_o can_v he_o be_v absolve_v without_o true_a repentance_n 7._o three_o this_o assertion_n be_v contrary_a to_o two_o doctrine_n very_o common_a and_o as_o i_o may_v say_v capital_a among_o protestant_n that_o faith_n only_a justifyes_n and_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o keep_v the_o commandment_n for_o that_o act_n of_o faith_n which_o they_o call_v
