frequency_n in_o prayer_n we_o can_v be_v say_v to_o do_v always_o what_o we_o do_v not_o often_o but_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o ordinary_a with_o all_o sort_n of_o people_n and_o in_o all_o languague_n then_o to_o express_v frequency_n by_o such_o a_o note_n of_o universality_n so_o we_o use_v to_o say_v that_o a_o child_n who_o often_o eat_v be_v always_o eat_v that_o a_o diligent_a student_n be_v always_o at_o his_o book_n and_o a_o laborious_a tradesman_n be_v always_o busy_a at_o his_o work_n etc._n etc._n and_o the_o place_n of_o scripture_n in_o which_o the_o particle_n always_o do_v import_v frequency_n be_v so_o many_o and_o obvious_a that_o it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n to_o stay_v on_o citation_n only_o let_v we_o offer_v some_o few_o instance_n in_o the_o subject-matter_n and_o where_o the_o saint_n be_v say_v to_o pray_v always_o and_o to_o ask_v such_o and_o such_o a_o particular_a without_o cease_v whereas_o it_o be_v evident_a from_o the_o very_a context_n that_o they_o do_v not_o can_v not_o without_o intermission_n continue_v in_o that_o exercise_n though_o ordinary_o and_o frequent_o they_o do_v so_o thus_o act._n 10.2_o it_o be_v say_v that_o cornelius_n pray_v ãâã_d pray_v ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d always_o and_o yet_o he_o be_v a_o centurion_n and_o must_v needs_o have_v be_v much_o employ_v in_o military_a affair_n thus_o also_o paul_n profess_v that_o he_o pray_v for_o the_o corinthian_n ãâã_d corinthian_n ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d always_o or_o without_o cease_v 1_o cor._n 1.4_o and_o always_o ãâã_d always_o ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d for_o the_o colossian_n col._n 1.3_o and_o ãâã_d and_o ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d always_o for_o the_o thessalonian_o 1_o thes_n 1.2_o and_o 2_o thes_n 1.11_o and_o p_o always_o for_o the_o roman_n rom._n 1.9_o thus_o also_o the_o apostle_n peter_n protest_v that_o he_o will_v put_v those_o christian_n to_o who_o he_o write_v q_o always_o in_o remembrance_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o he_o have_v then_o mention_v 2_o pet._n 1.12_o and_o will_v any_o be_v so_o absurd_a as_o to_o imagine_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v nothing_o else_o but_o continual_o
