own_o and_o as_o for_o god_n child_n because_o they_o be_v not_o of_o the_o world_n it_o respect_v not_o they_o to_o this_o the_o apostle_n answer_v in_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o the_o first_o verse_n that_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o want_n of_o better_a entertainment_n at_o the_o world_n hand_n be_v because_o they_o know_v not_o the_o father_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v let_v it_o never_o

son_n of_o the_o father_n by_o who_o he_o make_v it_o as_o this_o our_o apostle_n testify_v he_o be_v in_o the_o world_n 10._o 1_o john_n 10._o and_o the_o world_n be_v make_v by_o he_o but_o the_o world_n know_v he_o not_o therefore_o no_o marvel_n though_o it_o know_v not_o we_o that_o be_v but_o his_o adopt_a son_n the_o second_o objection_n be_v take_v from_o a_o consideration_n of_o our_o present_a estate_n in_o regard_n of_o ourselves_o to_o who_o no_o such_o outward_a royalty_n appear_v as_o we_o think_v appertain_v to_o the_o son_n of_o so_o high_a a_o majesty_n whereunto_o the_o apostle_n answer_v first_o by_o a_o concession_n in_o the_o second_o clause_n or_o comma_n of_o the_o second_o verse_n grant_v it_o to_o be_v so_o that_o indeed_o yet_o it_o appear_v not_o what_o we_o shall_v be_v second_o by_o a_o certain_a declaration_n of_o the_o appoint_a time_n when_o we_o shall_v receive_v the_o perfection_n of_o this_o dignity_n which_o be_v when_o he_o shall_v appear_v that_o be_v when_o jesus_n christ_n in_o who_o our_o life_n be_v hide_v shall_v come_v to_o judge_v the_o quick_a &_o the_o dead_a they_o our_o excellency_n which_o lie_v now_o bury_v as_o it_o be_v with_o so_o great_a ignominy_n shall_v be_v manifest_v to_o our_o endless_a joy_n &_o comfort_n these_o objection_n thus_o answer_v whereby_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o principle_n remain_v invincible_a that_o we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o apostle_n proceed_v to_o the_o duty_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o perform_v in_o respect_n of_o so_o great_a a_o prerogative_n which_o be_v
