of_o this_o doctrine_n be_v know_v in_o experience_n by_o some_o serious_n though_o much_o toss_v and_o puzzle_v soul_n who_o have_v some_o honest_a and_o earnest_a long_n after_o he_o and_o after_o

who_o john_n 21._o will_v fain_o have_v christ_n and_o come_v to_o the_o grave_n to_o seek_v he_o and_o miss_v he_o weep_v and_o when_o the_o angel_n speak_v to_o she_o to_o comfort_v she_o that_o

diligent_a pursuit_n after_o his_o presence_n this_o may_v proceed_v partly_o in_o the_o first_o place_n from_o believer_n their_o infirmity_n and_o their_o not_o be_v through_o in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o gospel_n mystery_n from_o their_o ignorance_n of_o the_o party_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o nature_n property_n and_o promise_n of_o it_o if_o they_o know_v how_o kind_a

in_o knowledge_n be_v say_v to_o be_v weak_a in_o faith_n because_o through_o their_o ignorance_n they_o have_v many_o doubt_n this_o make_v i_o to_o think_v that_o if_o many_o of_o you_o have_v sincerity_n and_o seriousness_n in_o the_o great_a concern_v of_o your_o salvation_n you_o will_v be_v much_o and_o almost_o inextricable_o puzzle_v how_o to_o rid_v yourselves_o in_o many_o thing_n you_o will_v meet_v with_o in_o your_o condition_n because_o of_o the_o abund_a of_o your_o ignorance_n you_o can_v alas_o tell_v what_o repentance_n be_v what_o close_v with_o christ_n in_o the_o covenant_n be_v what_o christ_n office_n be_v and_o what_o use_n shall_v be_v make_v of_o they_o and_o therefore_o if_o you_o be_v put_v in●o_o any_o strait_a or_o dump_n through_o the_o sense_n of_o

you_o study_v the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o covenant_n that_o if_o ever_o god_n do_v you_o good_a you_o may_v have_v some_o clearness_n and_o distinctness_n in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o

if_o you_o be_v to_o communicate_v will_v you_o take_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n and_o misken_fw-mi and_o slight_a christ_n if_o so_o you_o will_v eat_v and_o drink_v your_o own_o damnation_n will_v
