i_o out_o of_o his_o belly_n shall_v flow_v river_n of_o the_o water_n of_o life_n 7.38_o john_n 7.38_o these_o be_v sure_a proof_n of_o sincere_a faith_n which_o though_o it_o be_v weak_a yet_o it_o

we_o must_v preserve_v it_o so_o as_o that_o in_o temptation_n and_o affliction_n we_o may_v not_o be_v cast_v down_o with_o fear_n that_o it_o be_v lose_v neither_o that_o we_o do_v bear_v ourselves_o too_o bold_a upon_o it_o so_o far_o as_o to_o presume_v therefore_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o the_o use_n of_o all_o those_o mean_n ordain_v by_o god_n to_o preserve_v faith_n if_o it_o be_v a_o hypocritical_a or_o a_o temporary_a faith_n it_o may_v be_v lose_v if_o it_o be_v a_o true_a faith_n this_o be_v one_o certain_a sign_n of_o it_o the_o same_o mean_n that_o breed_v faith_n in_o we_o the_o same_o mean_n do_v nourish_v it_o therefore_o if_o thou_o stand_v by_o faith_n be_v not_o high_a mind_v but_o fear_v it_o be_v a_o tenet_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n 11.20_o rom._n 11.20_o and_o it_o be_v now_o revive_v of_o late_a by_o the_o anabaptist_n in_o a_o book_n of_o the_o last_o year_n that_o a_o man_n may_v final_o fall_v away_o from_o save_v grace_n and_o many_o
