so_o do_v you_o slight_a and_o vilify_v the_o life_n of_o jesus_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o bring_v salvation_n which_o the_o scripture_n say_v have_v appear_v to_o all_o man_n and_o teach_v to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o live_v godly_a and_o righteous_o and_o sober_o in_o this_o present_a evil_a world_n therefore_o in_o the_o love_n of_o god_n i_o entreat_v you_o both_o professor_n and_o prophain_n love_v the_o light_n and_o the_o grace_n and_o truth_n that_o come_v by_o jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v god_n salvation_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o

that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n as_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o god_n be_v light_a and_o in_o he_o be_v no_o darkness_n at_o all_o and_o this_o be_v the_o message_n the_o holy_a apostle_n have_v to_o deliver_v and_o this_o be_v the_o work_n that_o he_o have_v to_o do_v to_o turn_v people_n from_o darkness_n to_o light_n and_o from_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n to_o the_o power_n of_o god_n so_o here_o people_n may_v see_v the_o scripture_n do_v declare_v that_o god_n be_v light_a and_o christ_n be_v light_a and_o they_o that_o slight_a this_o heavenly_a divine_a light_n slight_a
