that_o we_o can_v call_v sanctification_n or_o grace_n in_o they_o by_o way_n of_o habit_n these_o man_n acknowledge_v yet_o here_o i_o think_v be_v a_o act_n and_o a_o high_a one_o too_o of_o grace_n if_o it_o must_v be_v by_o the_o word_n require_v it_o before_o the_o soul_n have_v faith_n in_o christ_n such_o a_o subjection_n to_o the_o holy_a will_n and_o sovereignty_n of_o god_n that_o if_o
