do_v not_o find_v offer_v only_o but_o free_a &_o absolute_a promise_n in_o that_o covenant_n fourteen_o they_o say_v that_o whosoever_o do_v believe_v that_o christ_n have_v suffer_v for_o the_o

all_o this_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o what_o be_v express_v by_o they_o in_o the_o three_o first_o line_n of_o page_n 16._o i_o answer_v first_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o all_o person_n by_o nature_n be_v child_n of_o wrath_n or_o of_o eternal_a death_n and_o whosoever_o believe_v this_o they_o believe_v a_o truth_n but_o second_o to_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v a_o infinite_a

allege_v john_n 3.16_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o this_o scripture_n do_v not_o teach_v we_o that_o there_o be_v a_o infinite_a love_n extend_v to_o all_o person_n from_o first_o to_o last_o
