for_o the_o former_a nothing_o can_v be_v more_o unquestionable_a and_o plain_a if_o you_o do_v but_o survey_v what_o have_v be_v large_o speak_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o christ_n yoke_n and_o the_o

the_o bring_v you_o under_o the_o gospel_n and_o there_o by_o his_o word_n and_o spirit_n to_o open_v your_o eye_n to_o renew_v you_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o your_o mind_n to_o slay_v the_o enmity_n

6._o 13._o or_o a_o cordial_a unfeigned_a surrender_n upon_o the_o gospel-proclamation_n which_o may_v be_v shadow_v forth_o thus_o suppose_v in_o a_o well-governed_a state_n there_o shall_v be_v a_o

spare_v not_o his_o one_o and_o only_a son_n but_o deliver_v he_o up_o to_o the_o death_n for_o poor_a sinner_n and_o enter_v a_o new_a covenant_n issue_v out_o the_o gospel-proclamation_n viz._n that_o notwithstanding_o all_o your_o sin_n and_o unworthiness_n and_o that_o dreadful_a charge_n and_o sentence_n of_o the_o law_n that_o lie_v against_o you_o yet_o have_v the_o great_a god_n make_v

now_o forsake_v his_o evil_a way_n and_o turn_v in_o unto_o this_o strong_a hold_n and_o make_v peace_n and_o he_o shall_v make_v peace_n i_o will_v have_v mercy_n i_o will_v abundant_o pardon_v
