their_o death_n but_o their_o strength_n be_v firm_a they_o be_v not_o in_o trouble_n as_o other_o man_n from_o these_o and_o such_o like_a weak_a ground_n they_o presume_v that_o their_o friend_n after_o death_n must_v needs_o go_v to_o heaven_n and_o therefore_o they_o comfort_v themselves_o and_o one_o another_o with_o these_o word_n whereas_o the_o truth_n be_v they_o may_v go_v to_o hell_n after_o all_o these_o thing_n our_o saviour_n christ_n tell_v we_o matt._n 5._o 20._o that_o except_o our_o righteousness_n shall_v exceed_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n we_o shall_v in_o no_o case_n enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o these_o man_n be_v so_o far_o from_o exceed_v that_o they_o come_v short_a of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o

for_o the_o present_a with_o these_o three_o first_o if_o live_v with_o they_o we_o observe_v that_o they_o make_v conscience_n of_o and_o practise_v private_a and_o secret_a duty_n as_o well_o as_o
