be_v say_v that_o they_o be_v reprobate_n but_o now_o as_o to_o the_o principal_a subject_a matter_n that_o be_v before_o i_o it_o be_v this_o that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o every_o one_o that_o

all_o one_o to_o have_v the_o faith_n to_o be_v in_o we_o or_o for_o we_o to_o be_v in_o it_o it_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n i_o say_v we_o be_v in_o the_o faith_n as_o well_o as_o it_o be_v in_o we_o i_o say_v too_o many_o deceive_v themselves_o many_o think_v they_o have_v the_o faith_n or_o be_v in_o the_o faith_n which_o have_v it_o not_o and_o be_v not_o in_o it_o this_o be_v

be_v nothing_o comparative_o to_o the_o deceit_n of_o a_o counterfeit_a faith_n when_o man_n shall_v deceive_v themselves_o to_o their_o die_a moment_n and_o fancy_n they_o have_v true_a faith_n when_o they_o have_v it_o not_o they_o that_o die_v want_v the_o true_a faith_n they_o die_v in_o their_o sin_n if_o you_o believe_v not_o say_v our_o lord_n christ_n that_o i_o be_o he_o you_o shall_v die_v in_o your_o sin_n and_o whither_o i_o go_v you_o can_v come_v therefore_o examine_v yourselves_o and_o examine_v effectual_o that_o you_o may_v know_v whether_o you_o have_v the_o true_a
