his_o son_n and_o his_o spirit_n to_o relieve_v the_o misery_n and_o want_n of_o man_n to_o forgive_v sin_n to_o impute_v righteousness_n and_o to_o give_v life_n to_o such_o as_o obey_v his_o son_n

this_o doctrine_n be_v to_o be_v examine_v before_o we_o give_v it_o a_o let-pass_n for_o my_o part_n i_o distinguish_v not_o two_o calling_n but_o compound_v one_o calling_n of_o the_o word_n and_o

the_o cause_n not_o to_o arise_v from_o the_o call_v but_o from_o the_o call_v that_o obey_v not_o 1._o for_o declare_v of_o this_o point_n we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o the_o spirit_n do_v not_o go_v with_o the_o word_n to_o make_v the_o hearer_n perform_v that_o which_o he_o can_v do_v already_o by_o natural_a strength_n for_o the_o spirit_n be_v give_v to_o help_v where_o nature_n fail_v as_o to_o keep_v wake_v and_o to_o be_v attentive_a for_o that_o which_o man_n can_v bring_v of_o their_o own_o strength_n god_n expect_v to_o find_v and_o to_o meet_v one_o cause_n therefore_o why_o to_o many_o the_o spirit_n be_v not_o present_a to_o the_o word_n be_v when_o they_o be_v not_o present_a to_o the_o word_n through_o their_o sottish_a carelessness_n second_o it_o must_v not_o be_v

own_o and_o i_o and_o the_o scripture_n say_v it_o be_v god_n way_n to_o produce_v faith_n in_o all_o man_n as_o shall_v afterward_o be_v more_o full_o declare_v next_o you_o come_v to_o the_o seven_o
