nothing_o paul_n know_v this_o very_a well_o if_o his_o epistle_n be_v serious_o scan_v if_o the_o matter_n of_o they_o be_v sift_v well_o into_o the_o two_o main_a part_n thereof_o justification_n

all_o his_o other_o epistle_n he_o be_v as_o much_o and_o sometime_o more_o insist_v on_o god_n free_a grace_n in_o sanctification_n and_o exhort_v thereunto_o against_o that_o looseness_n and_o

i_o to_o the_o maintenance_n of_o sanctification_n and_o set_v forth_o of_o the_o necessity_n of_o god_n free_a grace_n in_o christ_n therefore_o to_o be_v as_o great_a as_o in_o matter_n of_o

seem_v such_o a_o profess_a enemy_n to_o the_o antinomian_o but_o the_o contrary_n appear_v to_o the_o weak_a of_o his_o auditor_n whereupon_o who_o can_v but_o think_v that_o either_o he_o mistake_v the_o person_n he_o so_o call_v or_o that_o he_o do_v not_o understand_v what_o the_o lord_n deliver_v by_o i_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o must_v needs_o say_v it_o seem_v to_o i_o as_o clear_a as_o
