drink_v three_o consider_v the_o promise_n and_o in_o they_o consider_v three_o thing_n first_o consider_v the_o freeness_n of_o the_o promise_n the_o promise_n be_v hold_v out_o free_o whosoever_o will_v let_v he_o come_v and_o take_v of_o the_o water_n of_o life_n free_o i_o require_v no_o money_n no_o qualification_n or_o disposition_n but_o free_o take_v they_o only_o be_v willing_a to_o

give_v unto_o he_o that_o be_v athirst_a that_o be_v unto_o he_o that_o be_v willing_a of_o the_o fountain_n of_o the_o water_n of_o life_n free_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v free_o say_v to_o all_o the_o poor_a in_o a_o town_n come_v here_o be_v a_o angel_n apeice_n for_o every_o one_o that_o will_v come_v will_v not_o the_o poor_a come_v will_v not_o this_o beget_v a_o willingness_n in_o they_o it_o be_v free_o he_o do_v not_o say_v if_o you_o be_v thus_o clothe_v if_o your_o hand_n and_o face_n be_v clean_o if_o you_o be_v fine_o dress_v no_o but_o let_v every_o one_o come_v though_o they_o have_v leprous_a hand_n scald_a head_n lame_a leg_n and_o full_a of_o sore_n let_v they_o come_v thus_o it_o be_v with_o the_o lord_n jesus_n his_o promise_n be_v free_a whosoever_o will_n shall_v free_o have_v the_o water_n of_o life_n second_o consider_v the_o sufficiency_n and_o fullness_n of_o the_o promise_n if_o a_o promise_n be_v free_a and_o have_v not_o enough_o in_o it_o to_o relieve_v a_o man_n than_o he_o will_v stick_v but_o there_o be_v a_o sufficiency_n and_o fullness_n in_o the_o promise_n rom_n 8.32_o he_o have_v deliver_v up_o his_o son_n for_o we_o all_o and_o how_o shall_v he_o not_o with_o he_o free_o give_v we_o all_o thing_n the_o promise_n have_v all_o thing_n in_o it_o all_o thing_n needful_a for_o soul_n and_o body_n for_o heaven_n and_o earth_n for_o this_o life_n or_o the_o life_n to_o come_v there_o be_v enough_o in_o the_o promise_n so_o in_o the_o 81_o psal_n 10._o open_v thy_o mouth_n wide_a say_v god_n and_o i_o will_v fill_v it_o let_v your_o desire_n be_v never_o so_o large_a there_o be_v enough_o in_o the_o promise_n to_o satisfy_v your_o desire_n math_n 5._o bless_a be_v those_o that_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n they_o shall_v be_v satisfy_v they_o shall_v have_v abundance_n of_o satisfaction_n joh_n 10.10_o i_o be_o come_v that_o they_o may_v have_v life_n and_o have_v it_o in_o more_o abundance_n will_v you_o have_v life_n and_o be_v lively_a christian_n there_o be_v abundance_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n abundance_n of_o life_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o in_o the_o promise_n there_o be_v enough_o to_o answer_v all_o your_o soul_n then_o three_o consider_v the_o promise_n it_o be_v general_n it_o be_v not_o limit_v to_o the_o jew_n or_o gentile_n to_o one_o sort_n of_o man_n or_o woman_n but_o it_o be_v

make_v but_o it_o be_v tender_v to_o all_o if_o a_o state_n offer_v a_o pardon_n to_o all_o the_o traitor_n or_o all_o the_o delinquent_n therein_o will_v not_o every_o one_o come_v in_o and_o say_v i_o be_o a_o delinquent_n but_o here_o be_v a_o pardon_n offer_v to_o i_o so_o every_o soul_n that_o be_v willing_a may_v come_v in_o and_o say_v lord_n jesus_n thou_o say_v whosoever_o will_v lo_o i_o be_o willing_a let_v i_o have_v water_n of_o life_n so_o that_o the_o freeness_n the_o fullness_n and_o the_o general_n tender_v of_o the_o promise_n unto_o all_o be_v a_o special_a mean_n to_o beget_v willingness_n in_o we_o to_o receive_v the_o water_n of_o life_n four_o further_n consider_v the_o excellency_n of_o these_o water_n of_o life_n the_o necessity_n of_o they_o the_o use_n of_o
