love_n now_o in_o short_a what_o reason_n why_o this_o be_v the_o gospel_n method_n to_o our_o welfare_n useful_a first_o consider_v single_o truth_n and_o love_n as_o they_o be_v in_o themselves_o

have_v a_o sovereign_a virtue_n to_o prevent_v and_o to_o cure_v those_o spiritual_a malady_n which_o be_v most_o obstructive_a to_o the_o good_a of_o person_n and_o church_n truth_n keep_v from_o

all_o man_n see_v not_o by_o the_o same_o light_n if_o there_o be_v love_n it_o will_v keep_v they_o from_o make_v a_o difference_n in_o affection_n 30._o or_o keep_v they_o from_o all_o unwarrantableness_n disclaim_v communion_n with_o their_o brethren_n it_o be_v want_n of_o love_n that_o do_v that_o second_o truth_n if_o there_o be_v difference_n in_o judgement_n as_o there_o may_v

teach_v they_o not_o to_o use_v their_o liberty_n unseasonable_o to_o the_o offence_n of_o their_o brethren_n the_o truth_n make_v you_o free_a if_o you_o know_v the_o truth_n in_o john_n 8._o 32._o truth_n will_v give_v we_o a_o freedom_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o suffer_v ourselves_o to_o be_v under_o unnecessary_a and_o unwarrantable_a human_a imposition_n but_o shall_v see_v our_o freedom_n 13._o and_o in_o the_o use_n of_o indifferent_a thing_n love_n will_v make_v i_o so_o tender_a and_o so_o indulgent_a to_o the_o conscience_n of_o my_o brother_n that_o i_o will_v rather_o deny_v
