that_o enough_o oh_o no_o but_o to_o do_v good_a and_o to_o communicate_v forget_v not_o for_o with_o such_o sacrifice_n god_n be_v well_o please_v as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o

when_o you_o bring_v forth_o much_o fruit_n a_o little_a fruit_n serve_v not_o to_o give_v glory_n to_o god_n herein_o be_v my_o father_n glorify_v when_o you_o bring_v forth_o much_o fruit_n a_o

they_o too_o so_o that_o you_o see_v it_o be_v not_o a_o little_a that_o will_v do_v it_o pray_v remember_v this_o that_o your_o good_a work_n may_v so_o shine_v before_o man_n that_o you_o that_o

that_o see_v they_o do_v will_v glorify_v god_n o_o therefore_o give_v a_o glorious_a example_n but_o let_v i_o add_v a_o few_o thing_n more_o i_o beseech_v you_o that_o your_o obedience_n may_v be_v qualify_v towards_o god_n as_o your_o mercy_n have_v be_v qualify_v from_o god_n towards_o you_o how_o that_o be_v i_o will_v tell_v you_o present_o only_o this_o of_o the_o present_a mercy_n it_o be_v a_o prevent_a mercy_n to_o be_v prevent_v with_o the_o blessing_n of_o good_a be_v the_o great_a kind_n of_o mercy_n deliverance_n from_o evil_n be_v good_a but_o to_o be_v deliver_v so_o as_o not_o to_o be_v in_o evil_a be_v much_o more_o good_a who_o will_v not_o reckon_v it_o a_o great_a mercy_n always_o to_o be_v in_o health_n then_o to_o be_v deliver_v from_o sickness_n though_o both_o be_v mercy_n in_o this_o mercy_n we_o know_v not_o a_o mystery_n in_o other_o we_o have_v this_o be_v not_o like_a peace_n the_o joyful_a daughter_n of_o a_o sorrowful_a mother_n this_o be_v not_o like_a health_n after_o a_o pestilence_n but_o this_o prevent_v all_o these_o so_o much_o the_o great_a mercy_n it_o take_v away_o no_o good_a from_o we_o it_o bring_v no_o evil_n upon_o we_o and_o how_o great_a be_v this_o mercy_n if_o this_o mercy_n have_v not_o be_v for_o aught_o that_o i_o know_v many_o of_o we_o have_v not_o have_v a_o be_v or_o else_o which_o be_v worse_o a_o be_v not_o

a_o cheerful_a giver_n second_o your_o mercy_n be_v according_a to_o your_o own_o heart_n every_o way_n grateful_a and_o acceptable_a to_o you_o let_v your_o obedience_n be_v so_o to_o god_n be_v like_o david_n man_n after_o god_n own_o heart_n three_o it_o be_v seasonable_a mercy_n it_o be_v in_o our_o low_a estate_n it_o be_v when_o you_o know_v not_o what_o to_o do_v for_o you_o know_v not_o the_o danger_n you_o be_v in_o so_o let_v your_o obedience_n be_v seasonable_a then_o it_o be_v beautiful_a four_o it_o be_v a_o signal_n mercy_n digitus_fw-la dethic_n the_o finger_n of_o god_n be_v here_o the_o enemy_n be_v judge_n signal_n mercy_n call_v for_o signal_n obedience_n therefore_o be_v you_o sure_a to_o do_v some_o singular_a and_o signal_n thing_n for_o god_n to_o return_v

a_o continue_a mercy_n we_o enjoy_v our_o mercy_n from_o that_o mercy_n to_o this_o day_n it_o be_v not_o one_o mercy_n and_o not_o more_o but_o a_o chain_n of_o mercy_n not_o the_o mercy_n of_o a_o day_n or_o a_o year_n but_o the_o mercy_n of_o age_n well_o then_o let_v we_o be_v continual_a in_o obedience_n let_v we_o be_v christian_n not_o for_o a_o day_n or_o for_o a_o fit_a but_o christian_n

the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v mercy_n increase_v and_o obedience_n decrease_v god_n forbid_v take_v a_o few_o provoke_a consideration_n and_o i_o have_v do_v i_o may_v draw_v consideration_n from_o the_o author_n of_o the_o mercy_n god_n a_o god_n that_o be_v offend_v by_o we_o a_o god_n that_o need_v we_o not_o and_o a_o god_n that_o gain_v nothing_o by_o we_o and_o yet_o this_o god_n
