patience_n the_o race_n that_o be_v set_v before_o we_o look_v unto_o jesus_n the_o author_n and_o finisher_n of_o our_o faith_n now_o none_o can_v first_o run_v and_o then_o look_v but_o run_v in_o look_v yea_o look_v be_v the_o way_n of_o run_v for_o in_o behold_v his_o glory_n that_o be_v see_v which_o allure_v draw_v save_v and_o so_o make_v to_o run_v isa_n 45.22_o and_o 55.5_o as_o the_o believer_n shine_v be_v by_o hold_v forth_o the_o word_n of_o life_n in_o word_n and_o conversation_n phill._n 2.15_o 16_o so_o here_o discipling_n be_v by_o baptise_v when_o it_o be_v say_v

the_o nation_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o who_o jesus_n will_v his_o disciple_n to_o disciple_v baptise_v they_o we_o be_v to_o note_v that_o the_o word_n they_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o nation_n forementioned_a and_o can_v be_v refer_v to_o no_o other_o suppose_a person_n as_o for_o that_o be_v reply_v by_o some_o that_o the_o word_n they_o in_o the_o greek_a be_v of_o the_o masculine_a

we_o will_v be_v wean_v from_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o word_n but_o they_o that_o know_v the_o greek_a tongue_n know_v that_o the_o word_n nation_n or_o gentile_n in_o the_o neuter_n gender_n have_v frequent_o a_o word_n of_o the_o masculine_a as_o this_o word_n they_o come_v after_o it_o and_o to_o be_v refer_v to_o it_o and_o often_o so_o use_v in_o the_o writing_n of_o the_o apostle_n as_o rev._n 2.26_o 27._o he_o that_o overcom_v and_o keep_v my_o word_n unto_o the_o end_n to_o he_o will_v i_o give_v power_n over_o the_o nation_n and_o he_o shall_v rule_v they_o with_o a_o rod_n of_o
