leave_v the_o house_n of_o his_o lord_n the_o church_n of_o his_o god_n will_v leave_v as_o much_o as_o lie_v in_o he_o all_o in_o good_a order_n before_o he_o go_v will_v see_v that_o true_a

zeal_n well_o but_o to_o proceed_v joshuah_n you_o see_v leave_v no_o mean_n unassay_v to_o bring_v this_o good_a purpose_n of_o he_o to_o a_o wish_a effect_n but_o if_o this_o unrulie_a multitude_n will_v not_o obey_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n of_o that_o god_n which_o have_v wrought_v such_o great_a thing_n for_o they_o nor_o keep_v his_o covenant_n if_o the_o hardness_n of_o their_o

of_o we_o particular_o be_v bind_v to_o cleave_v unto_o he_o this_o doctrine_n which_o joshuah_n have_v well_o lay_v up_o in_o memory_n now_o to_o make_v use_n of_o it_o and_o by_o his_o rare_a

the_o world_n to_o be_v a_o peculiar_a people_n unto_o god_n and_o therefore_o what_o other_o do_v we_o ought_v not_o to_o regard_v we_o be_v the_o child_n we_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n wherefore_o as_o the_o eye_n of_o servant_n look_v unto_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o master_n even_o so_o must_v our_o eye_n wait_v upon_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n psal_n 123._o in_o the_o next_o

with_o we_o he_o be_v able_a and_o will_v profect_v we_o against_o all_o adversary_n if_o we_o rely_v upon_o his_o power_n and_o put_v our_o trust_n in_o he_o if_o we_o fail_v not_o in_o his_o

shall_v go_v from_o god_n be_v because_o though_o we_o have_v never_o so_o many_o precedent_n in_o this_o kind_n yet_o no_o multitude_n can_v warrant_v we_o against_o the_o justice_n &_o judgement_n of_o god_n if_o we_o sin_v with_o the_o multitude_n we_o shall_v be_v punish_v with_o the_o multitude_n for_o when_o we_o be_v call_v to_o give_v up_o our_o account_n it_o will_v not_o be_v
