which_o it_o kindle_v within_o 8.7_o this_o be_v evident_a by_o the_o zeal_n of_o those_o which_o have_v sincere_o love_v god_n in_o all_o age_n we_o may_v take_v all_o the_o saint_n for_o a_o

or_o nation_n sincere_a love_n to_o god_n be_v a_o establish_v affection_n this_o i_o gather_v from_o the_o language_n of_o the_o apostle_n 2_o thes._n 2.10_o 11._o because_o they_o receive_v not_o the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n t●at_o they_o may_v be_v save_v for_o this_o cause_n god_n shall_v send_v they_o strong_a delusion_n to_o believe_v lie_n etc._n etc._n hence_o it_o be_v evident_a

be_v a_o establish_v affection_n the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n without_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n to_o wit_n sincere_a love_n note_n be_v utter_o unavaileable_a unto_o salvation_n the_o

his_o love_n and_o his_o light_n too_o final_o sincere_a love_n to_o god_n always_o produce_v sincere_a love_n to_o man_n for_o god_n sake_n this_o be_v evident_a by_o the_o language_n of_o the_o
