a_o instant_n and_o with_o the_o great_a ease_n and_o no_o create_a power_n can_v put_v any_o difficulty_n in_o his_o way_n much_o less_o make_v any_o effectual_a resistance_n because_o omnipotency_n can_v check_v and_o countermand_v and_o bear_v down_o before_o it_o all_o other_o power_n so_o that_o if_o god_n be_v on_o our_o side_n who_o can_v be_v against_o we_o we_o may_v safe_o commit_v our_o soul_n into_o his_o hand_n for_o he_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v that_o which_o be_v commit_v to_o he_o he_o can_v give_v we_o all_o good_a thing_n and_o deliver_v we_o from_o all_o evil_a for_o his_o be_v the_o kingdom_n and_o the_o glorious_a power_n though_o all_o creature_n shall_v fail_v we_o we_o may_v rely_v upon_o god_n and_o live_v upon_o his_o all-sufficiency_n for_o our_o supply_n and_o may_v say_v with_o the_o prophet_n though_o the_o figtree_n shall_v not_o blossom_n neither_o fruit_n be_v in_o the_o vine_n though_o the_o labour_n of_o the_o olive_n shall_v fail_v and_o the_o

to_o we_o and_o to_o employ_v his_o power_n and_o wisdom_n for_o our_o good_a he_o make_v we_o that_o he_o may_v make_v we_o happy_a and_o nothing_o can_v hinder_v we_o from_o be_v so_o but_o ourselves_o such_o be_v his_o goodness_n that_o he_o will_v have_v all_o man_n to_o be_v save_v and_o to_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o when_o we_o have_v provoke_v he_o by_o

our_o destruction_n be_v of_o ourselves_o for_o as_o the_o wiseman_n in_o one_o of_o the_o apocryphal_a book_n say_v excellent_o god_n make_v not_o death_n neither_o have_v he_o pleasure_n in_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o live_n but_o man_n seek_v death_n in_o the_o error_n of_o their_o life_n and_o pull_v destruction_n upon_o themselves_o with_o the_o work_n of_o their_o own_o hand_n so_o great_a be_v the_o goodness_n of_o god_n to_o mankind_n that_o he_o have_v omit_v nothing_o that_o be_v necessary_a to_o our_o happiness_n he_o design_v it_o for_o we_o at_o first_o and_o to_o that_o

his_o infinite_a mercy_n be_v please_v to_o restore_v we_o to_o a_o new_a capacity_n of_o happiness_n by_o send_v his_o only_a son_n to_o suffer_v in_o our_o nature_n and_o in_o our_o stead_n and_o thereby_o to_o become_v a_o propitiation_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o the_o author_n of_o eternal_a salvation_n to_o they_o that_o believe_v and_o obey_v he_o and_o he_o have_v likewise_o promise_v to_o give_v we_o his_o holy_a spirit_n to_o enable_v we_o to_o that_o faith_n and_o obedience_n which_o the_o gospel_n require_v of_o we_o as_o the_o necessary_a condition_n of_o our_o eternal_a salvation_n three_o god_n be_v also_o a_o firm_a and_o unchangeable_a good_n notwithstanding_o his_o infinite_a wisdom_n and_o power_n and_o goodness_n we_o may_v be_v miserable_a if_o god_n be_v mutable_a for_o that_o can_v be_v a_o happiness_n which_o depend_v upon_o uncertainty_n and_o perhaps_o one_o of_o the_o great_a aggravation_n of_o misery_n be_v to_o fall_v from_o happiness_n to_o have_v be_v once_o happy_a and_o afterward_o to_o cease_v to_o be_v so_o and_o that_o will_v unavoidable_o happen_v to_o we_o if_o the_o cause_n of_o our_o happiness_n can_v change_v and_o the_o foundation_n of_o it_o be_v remove_v if_o god_n can_v be_v otherwise_o than_o powerful_a and_o wise_a and_o good_a all_o our_o hope_n of_o happiness_n will_v be_v shake_v and_o will_v fall_v to_o the_o ground_n but_o the_o divine_a nature_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o any_o change_n as_o he_o be_v the_o father_n of_o light_n and_o the_o author_n of_o every_o good_a and_o perfect_a gift_n so_o with_o he_o be_v no_o variableness_n neither_o shadow_n of_o turn_v all_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n be_v mutable_a and_o for_o that_o reason_n have_v they_o no_o other_o imperfection_n belong_v to_o they_o can_v make_v we_o happy_a four_o god_n be_v such_o a_o good_a as_o none_o can_v deprive_v we_o of_o and_o take_v away_o from_o we_o if_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n be_v unchangeable_a in_o their_o nature_n and_o not_o liable_a to_o any_o decay_n yet_o they_o can_v make_v we_o happy_a because_o we_o may_v be_v cheat_v of_o they_o by_o fraud_n or_o rob_v of_o they_o by_o violence_n but_o god_n can_v be_v take_v from_o we_o nothing_o but_o our_o sin_n can_v part_v god_n and_o we_o who_o shall_v separate_v we_o 8.35_o say_v the_o apostle_n from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n shall_v tribulation_n or_o distress_n or_o persecution_n or_o famine_n or_o nakedness_n or_o peril_n or_o sword_n we_o may_v be_v strip_v of_o all_o our_o worldly_a comfort_n and_o enjoyment_n by_o the_o violence_n of_o man_n but_o none_o of_o all_o these_o can_v separate_v we_o from_o god_n i_o be_o persuade_v 39_o as_o the_o apostle_n go_v on_o with_o great_a triumph_n that_o neither_o death_n nor_o life_n nor_o angel_n nor_o principality_n nor_o power_n nor_o height_n nor_o depth_n nor_o thing_n present_a nor_o thing_n to_o come_v nor_o any_o other_o creature_n shall_v be_v able_a to_o separate_v we_o from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n nor_o any_o other_o creature_n here_o be_v a_o sufficient_a induction_n of_o

only_o can_v separate_v between_o god_n and_o we_o nothing_o can_v deprive_v we_o of_o he_o the_o aid_n and_o influence_n of_o his_o grace_n none_o can_v intercept_v and_o hinder_v the_o joy_n and_o comfort_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n none_o can_v take_v from_o we_o all_o other_o thing_n may_v leave_v we_o and_o forsake_v we_o we_o may_v be_v debar_v of_o our_o best_a friend_n and_o banish_v from_o all_o our_o acquaintance_n but_o man_n can_v send_v we_o no_o whither_o from_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n our_o communication_n with_o heaven_n can_v be_v prevent_v or_o interrupt_v our_o

can_v make_v we_o happy_a man_n have_v a_o immortal_a spirit_n and_o be_v design_v for_o a_o endless_a duration_n must_v have_v a_o happiness_n proportionable_a for_o which_o reason_v nothing_o in_o
