and_o this_o i_o shall_v dispatch_v in_o a_o few_o word_n we_o have_v as_o great_a assurance_n as_o the_o thing_n be_v capable_a of_o and_o it_o lie_v in_o these_o four_o particular_n first_o in_o

only_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o show_v you_o what_o reason_n you_o have_v to_o acquiesce_v and_o rest_v satisfy_v in_o these_o promise_n and_o that_o both_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o his_o power_n and_o of_o his_o truth_n and_o faithfulness_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o his_o power_n he_o be_v omnipotent_a he_o be_v almighty_a he_o can_v do_v whatever_o he_o please_v man_n may_v promise_v and_o not_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v but_o we_o can_v conceive_v any_o such_o thing_n concern_v god_n without_o do_v he_o the_o great_a injury_n imaginable_a he_o that_o make_v the_o world_n of_o nothing_o and_o frame_v these_o body_n of_o we_o out_o of_o the_o dust_n how_o easy_a a_o thing_n be_v it_o for_o he_o to_o change_v these_o vile_a body_n of_o we_o and_o transform_v they_o into_o the_o likeness_n of_o that_o of_o our_o glorious_a redeemer_n again_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o depend_v and_o rely_v without_o scruple_n upon_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n if_o we_o consider_v his_o truth_n and_o faithfulness_n he_o can_v lie_v nor_o deceive_v his_o creature_n those_o be_v weakness_n and_o imperfection_n utter_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o holy_a nature_n of_o god_n and_o
