the_o stand_a desire_n of_o our_o soul_n and_o the_o daily_a request_n and_o suit_n we_o have_v at_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n that_o god_n will_v quicken_v we_o there_o be_v no_o grace_n we_o

with_o deep_a study_n how_o to_o attain_v to_o this_o this_o man_n be_v a_o welcome_a man_n to_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n therefore_o let_v we_o stir_v up_o ourselves_o to_o this_o there_o be_v

and_o never_o be_v careful_a to_o improve_v it_o it_o be_v note_v of_o john_n hearer_n that_o many_o of_o they_o have_v more_o life_n than_o they_o that_o sit_v under_o christ_n ministry_n it_o be_v

may_v do_v he_o good_a that_o he_o may_v be_v the_o better_a for_o they_o if_o a_o man_n labour_v to_o get_v good_a by_o the_o sacrament_n to_o get_v good_a by_o conference_n if_o he_o labour_v to_o have_v every_o ordinance_n of_o god_n make_v profitable_a to_o he_o this_o man_n with_o a_o little_a grace_n shall_v grow_v more_o than_o thousand_o that_o go_v on_o idle_o and_o yet_o have_v more_o

six_o mean_n another_o mean_n be_v to_o exercise_v that_o grace_n we_o have_v there_o be_v never_o a_o man_n in_o this_o congregation_n have_v so_o little_a grace_n but_o if_o he_o do_v exercise_v

define_v by_o the_o sacrament_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v phil._n 3.3_o we_o be_v the_o circumcision_n which_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o spirit_n as_o who_o shall_v say_v they_o brag_v that_o

1_o cor._n 11.20_o say_v he_o this_o be_v not_o to_o eat_v the_o lord_n supper_n they_o meet_v together_o and_o have_v a_o table_n spread_v and_o bread_n and_o wine_n and_o have_v a_o form_n of_o

three_o another_o inseparable_a mark_n of_o a_o true_a church_n be_v a_o sincere_a profession_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n etc._n and_o true_a christian_a religion_n either_o in_o truth_n and_o
