with_o noah_n be_v a_o faithful_a man_n but_o for_o his_o be_v such_o a_o faithful_a man_n who_o the_o lord_n please_v to_o choose_v and_o set_v out_o as_o a_o pattern_n to_o all_o believer_n rom._n

to_o affirm_v that_o every_o believer_n have_v now_o the_o same_o covenant_n and_o promise_v make_v to_o he_o and_o his_o seed_n as_o abraham_n have_v to_o he_o &_o his_o seed_n be_v very_o absurd_a

at_o the_o very_a instant_n of_o his_o believe_v that_o he_o do_v become_v a_o father_n of_o the_o faithful_a as_o well_o as_o abraham_n and_o if_o so_o where_o then_o will_v be_v any_o child_n to_o

rest_n of_o the_o phrase_n to_o wit_n and_o to_o thy_o seed_n will_v be_v in_o vain_a and_o superfluous_a which_o to_o think_v be_v very_o irrational_a but_o put_v case_n it_o be_v grant_v they_o to_o be_v father_n as_o they_o desire_v to_o be_v like_a to_o abraham_n then_o must_v they_o be_v father_n of_o only_a such_o as_o believe_v and_o not_o until_o they_o believe_v for_o according_a to_o the_o tenor_n of_o this_o new_a covenant_n and_o in_o the_o gospel_n sense_n abraham_n himself_o be_v father_n of_o none_o other_o nor_o otherwise_o and_o then_o be_v they_o father_n of_o their_o
