moreover_o when_o thou_o hear_v that_o thou_o be_v command_v to_o love_n god_n with_o all_o thy_o heart_n with_o all_o thy_o soul_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o mind_n here_o thou_o must_v consider_v that_o god_n do_v require_v a_o love_n pure_a and_o perfect_n eternal_a and_o spiritvall_n so_o that_o thy_o love_n shall_v be_v pure_a without_o spot_n perfect_v with_o out_o all_o fault_n eternal_a

so_o that_o be_v like_a unto_o christ_n our_o brother_n we_o may_v enjoy_v with_o he_o eternal_a joy_n and_o salvation_n this_o thing_n paul_n purpose_v to_o show_v 1._o cor._n 15._o when_o he_o say_v

many_o weighty_a reason_n certain_a of_o the_o chief_a of_o which_o it_o may_v suffice_v to_o note_v in_o this_o place_n first_o our_o mediator_n god_n and_o man_n must_v be_v one_o person_n that_o

wherefore_o it_o be_v needful_a that_o the_o mediator_n by_o a_o certain_a necessity_n shall_v be_v join_v to_o both_o party_n to_o god_n therefore_o who_o by_o our_o sin_n be_v offend_v our_o
