in_o the_o plain_a and_o evident_a word_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o master_n christ_n jesus_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o a_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n carry_v with_o it_o undoubted_o the_o grace_n of_o perseverance_n unto_o the_o end_n the_o same_o may_v be_v confirm_v from_o charity_n i_o mean_v such_o charity_n whereby_o such_o a_o faith_n work_v as_o be_v last_o describe_v of_o charity_n the_o apostle_n have_v these_o word_n charity_n never_o fail_v though_o prophecy_n fail_v and_o tongue_n shall_v cease_v and_o knowledge_n shall_v vanish_v away_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v here_o say_v

these_o grace_n that_o fail_v the_o apostle_n observe_v a_o difference_n here_o between_o grace_n and_o grace_n some_o for_o the_o use_n of_o this_o life_n only_o other_o for_o this_o life_n and_o for_o that_o to_o come_v of_o these_o that_o be_v both_o for_o this_o life_n and_o for_o that_o to_o come_v he_o name_v charity_n which_o fail_v never_o if_o charity_n never_o fail_v no_o not_o in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v than_o it_o must_v follow_v that_o it_o never_o fail_v in_o this_o life_n because_o if_o it_o shall_v fail_v in_o this_o life_n than_o it_o must_v needs_o fail_v in_o the_o

charity_n never_o fail_v therefore_o it_o abide_v for_o ever_o therefore_o there_o be_v grace_n wherein_o true_a believer_n persevere_v to_o the_o end_n hereupon_o some_o schoolman_n say_v that_o

may_v fail_v but_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n can_v fail_v and_o those_o grace_n that_o proceed_v from_o god_n purpose_n never_o fail_v they_o to_o who_o they_o be_v so_o give_v but_o because_o
