do_v believe_v sometime_o in_o scripture_n faith_n be_v put_v for_o doctrine_n as_o 1_o tim_n 4.1_o many_o shall_v depart_v from_o the_o faith_n that_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o faith_n for_o many_o in_o saint_n judes'_v time_n forsake_v those_o wholesome_a truth_n that_o the_o apostle_n have_v teach_v they_o and_o turn_v to_o fable_n and_o make_v the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n a_o doctrine_n of_o liberty_n of_o which_o sort_n of_o person_n the_o apostle_n describe_v at_o large_a in_o this_o epistle_n and_o this_o be_v the_o duty_n the_o apostle_n exhort_v the_o saint_n to_o in_o the_o text_n to_o contend_v for_o the_o truth_n and_o stand_v up_o in_o the_o defence_n of_o it_o in_o such_o evil_a and_o backslide_a day_n as_o those_o be_v and_o the_o ground_n and_o reason_n why_o the_o saint_n shall_v contend_v for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o faith_n once_o give_v to_o the_o saint_n be_v lay_v down_o in_o my_o text_n for_o there_o be_v certain_a man_n creep_v in_o unaware_o which_o before_o be_v ordain_v to_o this_o condemnation_n by_o this_o time_n you_o may_v perceive_v who_o the_o apostle_n mean_n in_o the_o text_n heretic_n and_o they_o be_v describe_v by_o these_o five_o thing_n first_o by_o their_o number_n there_o be_v certain_a man_n creep_v in_o not_o one_o or_o two_o but_o many_o mat._n 24.5_o many_o will_v come_v in_o my_o name_n say_v i_o be_o christ_n and_o shall_v deceive_v many_o and_o therefore_o the_o danger_n be_v the_o great_a second_o by_o their_o place_n they_o be_v in_o the_o church_n therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n they_o be_v creep_v in_o among_o the_o saint_n and_o in_o this_o regard_n the_o danger_n be_v the_o great_a if_o the_o enemy_n have_v once_o invade_v a_o land_n that_o land_n be_v in_o the_o more_o danger_n it_o

be_v as_o careful_a for_o their_o soul_n there_o be_v crafty_a subtle_a people_n abroad_o therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n ephes_n 4.14_o be_v no_o more_o child_n waver_v and_o carry_v about_o with_o
