we_o be_v capable_a to_o partake_v more_o and_o more_o of_o the_o divine_a perfection_n 3._o there_o be_v no_o fundamental_a doctrine_n of_o christianity_n but_o a_o obligation_n natural_o flow_v

thence_o lve_v upon_o all_o his_o creature_n to_o gratitude_n and_o praise_n if_o the_o doctrine_n be_v that_o god_n be_v the_o great_a sovereign_n of_o the_o world_n do_v not_o a_o duty_n plain_o follow_v that_o we_o his_o subject_n be_v to_o govern_v ourselves_o by_o his_o law_n do_v not_o the_o doctrine_n of_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n make_v it_o our_o duty_n to_o love_v he_o and_o imitate_v he_o and_o that_o of_o his_o irresistible_a power_n to_o dread_v the_o give_v he_o the_o least_o offence_n and_o to_o submit_v ourselves_o to_o his_o pleasure_n do_v not_o the_o doctrine_n that_o truth_n be_v one_o of_o his_o essential_a attribute_n make_v it_o our_o duty_n to_o believe_v he_o and_o to_o depend_v upon_o his_o promise_n do_v not_o the_o doctrine_n of_o his_o

only_o have_v such_o a_o power_n over_o our_o soul_n that_o he_o can_v destroy_v they_o how_o plain_o do_v it_o imply_v that_o we_o be_v to_o dread_n god_n more_o than_o man_n and_o to_o disobey_v man_n rather_o than_o god_n the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o suffering_n and_o passion_n of_o christ_n do_v it_o not_o make_v it_o our_o indispensable_a duty_n to_o mortify_v the_o
