of_o the_o world_n till_o now_o there_o have_v always_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o way_n to_o obtain_v salvation_n by_o namely_o by_o the_o sole_a and_o only_o trust_v and_o confidence_n in_o christ_n who_o the_o godly_a do_v believe_v shall_v come_v as_o the_o saviour_n promise_v to_o adam_n and_o to_o the_o old_a father_n even_o from_o the_o original_n of_o the_o world_n who_o we_o now_o

the_o faith_n of_o the_o patriarch_n prophet_n and_o final_o of_o the_o whole_a people_n of_o israel_n in_o one_o time_n past_a because_o they_o expect_v and_o wait_v for_o that_o to_o come_v which_o we_o do_v believe_v to_o be_v already_o do_v now_o though_o we_o conceive_v in_o our_o mind_n that_o the_o holiness_n of_o the_o patriarch_n be_v exceed_o great_a which_o without_o all_o doubt_n be_v

therefore_o all_o man_n must_v look_v for_o salvation_n from_o this_o one_o and_o only_a christ_n neither_o be_v there_o among_o man_n any_o other_o name_n give_v as_o s._n peter_n say_v 12._o

of_o sin_n see_v these_o thing_n be_v so_o who_o will_v not_o marvel_n papist_n much_o at_o the_o blindness_n of_o the_o christian_n both_o in_o our_o memory_n and_o in_o former_a age_n which_o do_v

only_o for_o our_o sin_n as_o they_o do_v to_o the_o dignity_n and_o worthiness_n of_o their_o own_o work_v for_o whitherto_o tend_v confidence_n so_o many_o rite_n and_o form_n of_o worship_v god_o
