the_o apostle_n now_o show_v in_o the_o next_o place_n as_o namely_o if_o we_o continue_v in_o one_o spirit_n if_o we_o sight_n together_o in_o one_o mind_n through_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n &_o if_o we_o fear_v our_o adversary_n in_o nothing_o if_o we_o continue_v in_o one_o spirit_n that_o be_v if_o we_o stand_v fast_o and_o abide_v constant_a in_o one_o truth_n of_o christ_n by_o one_o

all_o assault_n whatsoever_o and_o quit_v yourselves_o like_o man_n and_o abide_v constant_a in_o the_o truth_n which_o i_o have_v teach_v you_o so_o you_o show_v yourselves_o to_o be_v my_o

to_o be_v such_o as_o become_v the_o gospel_n whereupon_o it_o be_v that_o we_o be_v so_o often_o exhort_v to_o continue_v in_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n to_o continue_v in_o the_o faith_n to_o abide_v constant_a in_o the_o truth_n to_o stand_v fast_o and_o shrink_v not_o beware_v then_o belove_a of_o revolt_a from_o the_o truth_n wherein_o you_o have_v be_v teach_v in_o christ_n jesus_n of_o be_v carry_v about_o with_o every_o wind_n of_o doctrine_n by_o the_o deceit_n of_o man_n and_o with_o craftiness_n whereby_o they_o lie_v in_o wait_n to_o deceive_v of_o yield_v and_o give_v ground_n unto_o the_o adversary_n of_o the_o truth_n he_o that_o continue_v unto_o the_o end_n he_o shall_v be_v save_v but_o if_o you_o start_v aside_o like_o a_o break_a bow_n sure_o you_o walk_v not_o as_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n look_v to_o it_o then_o that_o you_o continue_v in_o the_o thing_n which_o you_o have_v learn_v and_o that_o you_o fall_v not_o away_o from_o the_o hope_n of_o your_o profession_n another_o thing_n also_o hence_o i_o observe_v which_o be_v that_o to_o continue_v and_o abide_v constant_a in_o the_o the_o truth_n be_v whole_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o be_v not_o by_o our_o own_o wisdom_n power_n and_o strength_n but_o only_o by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n that_o we_o stand_v fast_o without_o which_o we_o can_v no_o more_o stand_v in_o the_o truth_n then_o can_v our_o body_n stand_v without_o our_o soul_n and_o spirit_n both_o therefore_o let_v we_o beware_v that_o we_o grieve_v not_o the_o holy_a spirit_n by_o our_o evil_a deed_n or_o by_o our_o evil_a word_n and_o let_v we_o always_o pour_v out_o fervent_a prayer_n unto_o he_o that_o he_o will_v vouchsafe_v ever_o to_o abide_v with_o we_o to_o strengthen_v we_o to_o abide_v in_o the_o truth_n it_o follow_v and_o in_o one_o mind_n etc._n etc._n whence_o i_o observe_v another_o special_a note_n of_o a_o conversation_n agreeable_a to_o the_o gospel_n of_o

we_o be_v injurious_a unto_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n for_o thus_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o gospel_n which_o we_o profess_v be_v evil_o speak_v of_o let_v we_o therefore_o be_v knit_v
