not_o prove_v the_o lord_n to_o be_v so_o partial_a in_o his_o love_n towards_o his_o creature_n as_o to_o choose_v some_o but_o leave_v the_o great_a part_n of_o mankind_n in_o the_o fall_v state_n

baptism_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n i_o do_v believe_v be_v inward_a and_o spiritual_a be_v that_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n foretold_v by_o john_n the_o baptist_n mat._n 3._o 11._o i_o indeed_o
