have_v his_o church_n gather_v together_o after_o this_o sort_n and_o therefore_o prayer_n to_o be_v make_v for_o all._n to_o this_o point_n come_v that_o that_o we_o have_v hitherto_o set_v down_n in_o both_o these_o chapter_n first_o the_o proposition_n be_v make_v plain_a and_o prove_v that_o prayer_n supplication_n intercession_n and_o give_v of_o thanks_o be_v to_o be_v make_v for_o all_o

to_o be_v save_v and_o to_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n thirdlie_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o learned_a gather_v hereupon_o be_v add_v also_o as_o that_o such_o prayer_n be_v to_o be_v make_v for_o all_o that_o there_o may_v be_v make_v a_o change_n of_o they_o that_o of_o persecutor_n they_o may_v be_v make_v cherisher_n see_v he_o have_v make_v we_o to_o his_o image_n we_o shall_v exercise_v our_o charity_n one_o towards_o another_o we_o must_v have_v compassion_n on_o the_o destruction_n of_o infidel_n we_o must_v follow_v the_o example_n of_o god_n that_o give_v his_o

be_v create_v to_o god_n image_n we_o be_v in_o the_o way_n of_o damnation_n god_n may_v do_v as_o much_o for_o they_o as_o he_o do_v for_o we_o we_o may_v not_o despair_v of_o they_o the_o salvation_n of_o all_o be_v well_o please_v to_o god_n we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n to_o set_v forward_o the_o good_a will_n of_o god_n our_o love_n must_v not_o be_v a_o straitlaced_a love_n but_o a_o gospell-like_a love_n to_o love_v even_o the_o wicked_a if_o god_n give_v his_o son_n for_o all_o if_o christ_n offer_v himself_o for_o a_o redemption_n for_o all_o we_o must_v endeavour_v by_o all_o mean_n that_o his_o death_n may_v be_v avileable_a to_o all_o and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o such_o a_o prayer_n be_v neither_o superstitious_a nor_o superfluous_a nor_o more_o
