10.13_o god_n be_v faithful_a who_o will_v not_o permit_v you_o to_o be_v tempt_v above_o what_o you_o be_v able_a but_o now_o it_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o god_n do_v daily_o permit_v we_o to_o be_v tempt_v beyond_o our_o own_o power_n because_o no_o power_n we_o have_v of_o ourselves_o as_o of_o ourselves_o be_v able_a or_o sufficient_a to_o resist_v those_o temptation_n which_o daily_o set_v upon_o we_o see_v therefore_o it_o be_v clear_a scripture_n that_o god_n will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o be_v tempt_v above_o what_o we_o be_v able_a it_o hence_o demonstrative_o follow_v that_o god_n grace_n sufficient_o enable_v all_o man_n to_o resist_v any_o temptation_n whatsoever_o fall_v upon_o they_o this_o be_v that_o which_o we_o proper_o call_v give_v sufficient_a grace_n to_o all_o man_n though_o all_o will_v not_o resist_v the_o temptation_n which_o they_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v even_o as_o he_o sufficient_o by_o nature_n enable_v most_o man_n to_o lift_v their_o hand_n up_o to_o their_o head_n though_o some_o for_o laziness_n will_v not_o do_v it_o now_o the_o grace_n sufficient_o enable_v all_o to_o resist_v all_o kind_n of_o temptation_n be_v give_v they_o

can_v do_v any_o such_o meritorious_a action_n without_o the_o actual_a grace_n of_o god_n exciting_a he_o thereunto_o three_o we_o say_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n must_v be_v aid_v and_o assist_v he_o
