prosperity_n you_o see_v here_o be_v a_o plain_a promise_n make_v not_o for_o a_o day_n but_o always_o not_o temporary_a and_o for_o a_o time_n only_o but_o for_o ever_o the_o one_o estate_n not_o

of_o the_o scripture_n this_o must_v not_o seem_v strange_a unto_o we_o that_o this_o erroneous_a manner_n of_o application_n be_v in_o the_o jew_n since_o that_o the_o very_a apostle_n of_o our_o
