god_n everlasting_a kingdom_n the_o reason_n of_o this_o and_o what_o the_o thing_n be_v which_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o perform_v five_o consider_v therefore_o what_o qualification_n be_v necessary_a

god_n everlasting_a kingdom_n as_o yet_o the_o way_n to_o it_o be_v lay_v open_a for_o we_o and_o we_o have_v a_o liberty_n and_o power_n give_v we_o to_o enter_v in_o but_o it_o be_v upon_o certain_a

service_n of_o the_o divine_a oeconomy_n the_o world_n have_v not_o any_o the_o least_o hand_n they_o be_v act_n of_o pure_a grace_n of_o mercy_n undeserved_a unthought_a of_o by_o mankind_n yet_o god_n be_v the_o sovereign_a governor_n and_o legislator_n of_o the_o universe_n it_o will_v have_v be_v inconsistent_a with_o his_o honour_n and_o greatness_n to_o have_v give_v up_o the_o

which_o the_o lord_n jesus_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o purchase_v for_o we_o all_o the_o price_n be_v pay_v and_o it_o be_v love_n unspeakable_a in_o christ_n to_o lay_v it_o down_o and_o in_o his_o father_n to_o accept_v it_o at_o his_o hand_n for_o we_o but_o though_o the_o general_a purchase_n be_v make_v yet_o for_o the_o complete_a possession_n of_o it_o we_o must_v be_v careful_a to_o behave_v ourselves_o so_o as_o god_n require_v we_o in_o order_n to_o the_o conveyance_n of_o the_o title_n to_o every_o particular_a soul_n we_o must_v believe_v steadfast_o on_o the_o name_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o to_o this_o faith_n we_o must_v add_v sincere_a repentance_n from_o all_o dead_a work_n and_o make_v it_o our_o business_n to_o serve_v god_n in_o true_a holiness_n and_o righteousness_n all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n without_o these_o performance_n on_o our_o part_n christ_n will_v in_o the_o end_n profit_v we_o nothing_o because_o he_o be_v the_o author_n of_o
