serve_v to_o declare_v god_n glory_n but_o the_o doctrine_n of_o election_n do_v manifest_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n for_o first_o it_o show_v that_o we_o be_v elect_v to_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n

of_o the_o truth_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n worthy_a to_o be_v learn_v second_o that_o doctrine_n be_v necessary_o to_o be_v learn_v which_o be_v profitable_a to_o we_o in_o the_o course_n of_o christianity_n but_o the_o doctrine_n of_o election_n will_v avail_v we_o much_o in_o the_o run_n of_o this_o race_n for_o first_o it_o relieve_v our_o faith_n against_o diffidence_n show_v that_o our_o salvation_n hang_v not_o like_o a_o meteour_n in_o the_o air_n but_o be_v firm_o fix_v upon_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n second_o it_o further_v our_o spiritual_a joy_n in_o that_o it_o teach_v that_o the_o love_n of_o god_n be_v constant_a 2.19_o and_o his_o decree_n concern_v our_o welfare_n be_v eternal_a three_o it_o eclipse_v the_o pride_n of_o the_o heart_n show_v that_o god_n dignation_n and_o not_o man_n dignity_n his_o favour_n &_o not_o man_n faith_n his_o mercy_n and_o not_o man_n merit_n be_v the_o fountain_n and_o foundation_n of_o man_n felicity_n four_o it_o provoke_v we_o to_o true_a gratitude_n and_o the_o practice_n of_o all_o good_a work_n 3.5_o because_o it_o teach_v to_o ascribe_v our_o salvation_n whole_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n 1.4_o and_o not_o to_o our_o own_o goodness_n as_o also_o that_o we_o be_v elect_v to_o be_v holy_a and_o not_o to_o follow_v the_o swinge_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o to_o go_v a_o whore_v after_o our_o own_o lust_n five_o this_o doctrine_n minister_v comfort_n to_o we_o and_o help_v our_o patience_n in_o adversity_n ●●_o for_o it_o teach_v that_o we_o be_v predestinate_v to_o wear_v the_o

this_o world_n so_o we_o shall_v be_v honour_v with_o immortal_a glory_n in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v therefore_o this_o doctrine_n ought_v to_o be_v learned_a and_o remember_v four_o it_o be_v
