of_o god_n against_o he_o yet_o he_o shall_v never_o so_o provoke_v god_n as_o to_o cause_v he_o to_o revoke_v this_o mercy_n of_o pardon_n to_o all_o eternity_n if_o thou_o be_v once_o pardon_v thou_o be_v pardon_v for_o ever_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o god_n in_o pardon_v as_o it_o be_v with_o man_n a_o king_n pardon_v a_o malefactor_n on_o condition_n of_o his_o good_a behaviour_n afterward_o though_o it_o be_v true_a a_o believer_n will_v be_v more_o careful_a of_o offend_v after_o he_o be_v pardon_v than_o ever_o before_o but_o yet_o god_n do_v not_o pardon_v i_o so_o much_o

another_o if_o he_o strike_v a_o man_n it_o be_v but_o a_o assault_n and_o battery_n in_o he_o but_o he_o that_o have_v his_o pardon_n for_o his_o life_n for_o such_o a_o thing_n do_v by_o he_o his_o

therefore_o a_o believer_n shall_v not_o question_v his_o justification_n upon_o every_o fail_n in_o his_o sanctification_n this_o be_v a_o dishonour_n to_o the_o free_a and_o rich_a grace_n of_o
