call_v circumcision_n the_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n that_o be_v by_o faith_n for_o it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o outward_a seal_v up_o of_o y_fw-fr e_o promise_n of_o god_n free_a favour_n for_o the_o same_o cause_n stephen_n in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n term_v circumcision_n by_o the_o name_n of_o a_o testament_n then_o for_o asmuch_o as_o the_o promise_n go_v of_o necessity_n

that_o the_o eternal_a son_n of_o god_n shall_v become_v man_n by_o mean_n whereof_o he_o both_o be_v able_a too_o satisfy_v god_n justice_n because_o he_o be_v god_n and_o ought_v too_o do_v it_o

that_o you_o will_v diligent_o learn_v and_o thorough_o weigh_v these_o continual_a circumstance_n of_o prayer_n the_o first_o circumstance_n of_o a_o godly_a prayer_n be_v the_o affection_n of_o

that_o none_o be_v too_o be_v call_v upon_o but_o he_o concern_v who_o we_o have_v commandment_n the_o second_o be_v promisse_fw-la no_o invocation_n have_v promise_n but_o that_o which_o be_v make_v

wherefore_o let_v we_o tread_v in_o their_o step_n and_o let_v we_o yield_v this_o divine_a service_n untoo_o none_o but_o too_o who_o it_o be_v due_a that_o be_v alone_o untoo_o god_n the_o four_o
