strive_v and_o sin_n in_o strive_v there_o be_v a_o way_n of_o strive_v which_o be_v our_o privilege_n to_o be_v act_v in_o but_o if_o self_n strive_v against_o self_n and_o sin_n we_o be_v more_o wrestle_v into_o self_n and_o sin_n or_o when_o self_n by_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o old_a covenant_n go_v about_o to_o lay_v down_o self_n by_o such_o laying_n down_o or_o when_o i_o strive_v from_o such_o a_o light_n as_o be_v gather_v up_o which_o light_n present_v god_n as_o set_v against_o i_o and_o to_o be_v alter_v by_o something_o do_v by_o i_o this_o be_v again_o to_o return_v to_o

the_o way_n in_o the_o work_n be_v altogether_o contrary_a to_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n but_o when_o we_o by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n do_v strive_v against_o sin_n which_o be_v against_o god_n the_o more_o i_o strive_v in_o this_o way_n the_o better_a it_o be_v and_o i_o count_v it_o not_o only_o a_o duty_n but_o a_o high_a privilege_n the_o lord_n make_v you_o and_o i_o thus_o to_o know_v god_n that_o by_o that_o light_n we_o may_v be_v carry_v out_o to_o live_v upon_o god_n and_o to_o god_n in_o all_o our_o action_n for_o dear_a friend_n you_o know_v that_o sin_n be_v not_o make_v less_o but_o a_o great_a deal_n the_o more_o unlovely_a by_o the_o apprehend_n of_o god_n in_o the_o light_n of_o his_o own_o love_n let_v man_n say_v what_o they_o will_v this_o i_o know_v that_o a_o man_n be_v not_o true_o christianize_v and_o real_o crucify_v to_o sin_n till_o he_o see_v a_o high_a good_a and_o excellency_n in_o god_n present_v to_o he_o and_o for_o he_o than_o he_o can_v possible_o
