here_o we_o shall_v consider_v one_o another_o to_o provoke_v unto_o love_n and_o to_o good_a work_n and_o this_o bring_v i_o to_o the_o principal_a point_n for_o which_o i_o make_v choice_n of_o this_o text_n viz._n that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o christian_n to_o provoke_v one_o another_o to_o love_n doct._n and_o to_o good_a work_n which_o point_v you_o see_v consist_v of_o two_o

i_o call_v it_o a_o christian_a virtue_n or_o grace_n to_o distinguish_v it_o from_o the_o pros._n natural_a affection_n of_o love_n which_o we_o bring_v into_o the_o world_n with_o we_o and_o from_o that_o moral_a virtue_n which_o may_v be_v acquire_v by_o our_o own_o diligence_n and_o industry_n whereas_o this_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n spirit_n in_o we_o and_o a_o evidence_n of_o our_o future_a salvation_n 1_o ioh._n 3._o 14._o for_o we_o know_v that_o we_o have_v pass_v from_o death_n to_o life_n because_o we_o love_v the_o brethren_n and_o he_o that_o love_v not_o his_o brother_n with_o this_o holy_a love_n abide_v in_o death_n this_o love_n you_o see_v have_v a_o two_o fold_n objection_n god_n and_o man_n the_o latter_a i_o conceive_v be_v principal_o mean_v in_o this_o
