seed_n be_v call_v rom._n 9_o 7._o yet_o faithful_a abraham_n stagger_v not_o at_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n but_o do_v firm_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v what_o he_o have_v promise_v though_o in_o obedience_n to_o god_n he_o do_v offer_v up_o his_o son_n hence_o it_o be_v say_v by_o faith_n abraham_n when_o he_o be_v try_v offer_v up_o isaac_n and_o he_o that_o have_v receive_v the_o promise_n offer_v up_o his_o only_a beget_v son_n account_v that_o god_n be_v able_a to_o raise_v he_o up_o even_o from_o the_o dead_a from_o whence_o also_o he_o receive_v he_o in_o a_o figure_n heb._n 11._o 17_o 20._o and_o he_o be_v the_o same_o god_n still_o and_o be_v able_a to_o do_v for_o we_o exceed_o abundant_o above_o all_o that_o we_o can_v ask_v or_o think_v according_a to_o the_o power_n that_o work_v in_o we_o eph._n 3._o 20_o 21._o as_o st._n paul_n say_v i_o know_v who_o i_o have_v believe_v and_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v that_o which_o i_o have_v commit_v to_o he_o against_o that_o day_n 2_o tim._n 1._o 12._o he_o be_v not_o only_o able_a to_o give_v we_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v good_a and_o needful_a for_o the_o mortal_a body_n 2_o chron_n 25_o 9_o but_o also_o to_o raise_v up_o this_o body_n again_o when_o it_o be_v dead_a and_o lay_v in_o the_o grave_a and_o turn_v to_o corruption_n why_o shall_v it_o be_v think_v a_o thing_n incredible_a with_o you_o that_o god_n shall_v raise_v the_o dead_a act_n 26._o 8._o indeed_o it_o may_v well_o be_v think_v a_o thing_n incredible_a and_o impossible_a that_o any_o mere_a creature_n shall_v effect_v this_o great_a and_o wonderful_a work_n but_o be_v any_o thing_n impossible_a unto_o or_o too_o hard_a for_o the_o lord_n can_v he_o who_o at_o the_o first_o create_v all_o thing_n of_o nothing_o raise_v up_o this_o body_n again_o when_o it_o be_v dissolve_v and_o turn_v to_o dust_n and_o rottenness_n and_o reunite_v it_o to_o its_o proper_a soul_n and_o spirit_n yes_o without_o all_o peradventure_o he_o can_v do_v it_o and_o will_v do_v it_o in_o due_a season_n god_n have_v both_o raise_v up_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o will_v raise_v up_o we_o also_o by_o his_o own_o power_n 1_o cor._n 6._o 14._o with_o ephes_n 1._o 19_o 20._o 2_o cor._n 1._o 9_o 10._o though_o christ_n be_v crucify_a through_o weakness_n yet_o he_o live_v by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n for_o we_o also_o be_v weak_a in_o he_o but_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n 2_o cor._n 13._o 4._o he_o be_v able_a to_o change_v and_o transform_v these_o vile_a dusty_a body_n into_o excellent_a one_o to_o make_v these_o body_n which_o be_v corruptible_a weak_a dishonourable_a natural_a body_n to_o become_v spiritual_a glorious_a powerful_a and_o incorruptible_a body_n 1_o cor._n 15._o 42_o 44_o 48_o 49_o 53_o 54._o he_o shall_v change_v our_o vile_a body_n say_v the_o apostle_n that_o it_o may_v be_v fashion_v like_o unto_o his_o glorious_a body_n according_a to_o the_o work_n whereby_o he_o be_v able_a even_o to_o subdue_v all_o thing_n unto_o himself_o phil._n 3._o 21._o and_o so_o he_o have_v power_n to_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o in-being_a of_o sin_n and_o from_o all_o our_o spot_n and_o fault_n and_o will_v do_v so_o perfect_o in_o the_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a eph._n 5._o 25_o 27._o he_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v the_o believer_n from_o fall_v now_o in_o this_o day_n and_o hereafter_o even_o in_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o just_a to_o present_v they_o faultless_a before_o the_o presence_n of_o his_o glory_n with_o exceed_a joy_n judas_n 24._o 25._o yea_o in_o short_a he_o be_v able_a to_o save_v they_o to_o the_o uttermost_a who_o do_v sincere_o seek_v and_o serve_v he_o and_o to_o make_v they_o partaker_n glorious_o of_o eternal_a life_n as_o it_o be_v before_o speak_v to_o and_o in_o some_o weak_a and_o imperfect_a measure_n open_v and_o explain_v and_o he_o have_v give_v his_o son_n our_o lord_n jesus_n power_n to_o give_v unto_o they_o eternal_a life_n he_o have_v already_o give_v we_o mankind_n in_o his_o son_n eternal_a life_n hence_o the_o apostle_n john_n say_v he_o that_o believe_v not_o god_n have_v make_v he_o a_o liar_n because_o he_o believe_v not_o the_o record_n that_o god_n give_v of_o his_o son_n and_o this_o be_v the_o record_n that_o god_n have_v give_v to_o we_o eternal_a life_n and_o this_o life_n be_v in_o his_o son_n 1_o john_n 5._o 10_o 11._o and_o not_o only_o have_v he_o so_o do_v but_o he_o have_v also_o empower_v his_o son_n to_o make_v they_o partaker_n of_o this_o eternal_a life_n who_o hear_v his_o voice_n and_o diligent_o and_o constant_o follow_v he_o now_o in_o a_o first-fruit_n by_o faith_n and_o hereafter_o full_o in_o the_o glorious_a enjoyment_n and_o fruition_n of_o it_o as_o our_o saviour_n in_o his_o address_n to_o his_o father_n signify_v say_v thou_o have_v give_v he_o power_n over_o all_o flesh_n that_o he_o shall_v give_v eternal_a life_n to_o as_o many_o as_o thou_o have_v give_v he_o john_n 17._o 2._o with_o chap._n 10._o 27_o 28._o now_o this_o be_v a_o very_a powerful_a and_o forcible_a encouragement_n to_o encourage_v and_o strengthen_v we_o to_o expect_v the_o performance_n of_o the_o exceed_a great_a and_o excellent_a promise_n which_o he_o have_v make_v unto_o godliness_n and_o so_o unto_o we_o upon_o our_o sincere_o exercise_v ourselves_o thereunto_o and_o patient_o continue_v so_o to_o do_v that_o he_o who_o have_v promise_v be_v a_o god_n of_o infinite_a and_o eternal_a power_n and_o so_o able_a to_o accomplish_v whatever_o he_o have_v promise_v if_o man_n make_v promise_n and_o intend_v real_o to_o perform_v they_o yet_o there_o may_v be_v and_o oftentimes_o be_v a_o failure_n find_v with_o they_o therein_o because_o though_o their_o will_n and_o purpose_n be_v never_o so_o strong_a and_o firm_a yet_o their_o hand_n and_o power_n be_v very_o short_a and_o weak_a but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n his_o hand_n be_v not_o shorten_v at_o all_o but_o power_n do_v belong_v unto_o he_o as_o well_o as_o with_o he_o be_v mercy_n psal_n 62._o 11_o 12._o in_o thy_o hand_n be_v there_o not_o power_n and_o may_v so_o that_o none_o be_v able_a to_o withstand_v thou_o 2_o chron._n 20._o 6._o he_o that_o have_v make_v these_o promise_n to_o godliness_n and_o unto_o they_o that_o sincere_o exercise_v themselves_o thereto_o who_o walk_v before_o he_o and_o be_v perfect_a be_v the_o lord_n almighty_n gen._n 17._o 1_o 8._o 2_o cor._n 6._o 16_o 18._o with_o chap._n 7._o 1._o 3._o and_o he_o who_o have_v entail_v the_o promise_n on_o godliness_n be_v also_o a_o god_n of_o righteousness_n and_o truth_n and_o who_o will_v therefore_o undoubtted_o perform_v his_o good_a word_n he_o be_v abundant_a in_o goodness_n and_o truth_n exod._n 34._o 6._o thus_o when_o moses_n say_v i_o will_v publish_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n he_o present_o thus_o proclaim_v it_o he_o be_v the_o rock_n his_o work_n be_v perfect_a for_o all_o his_o way_n be_v judgement_n a_o god_n of_o truth_n and_o without_o iniquity_n just_a and_o right_o be_v

make_v unto_o his_o ancient_a people_n in_o bring_v they_o into_o and_o poss_n ss_v they_o of_o the_o typical_a rest_n the_o land_n of_o canaan_n hence_o it_o be_v say_v the_o lord_n give_v they_o rest_v round_o about_o according_a to_o all_o that_o he_o swear_v unto_o our_o father_n there_o fail_v not_o aught_o of_o any_o good_a thing_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v speak_v unto_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n all_o come_v to_o pass_v josh_n 21._o 43_o 45._o and_o chap._n 23._o 14_o 15._o and_o now_o he_o have_v most_o clear_o and_o comfortable_o manifest_v his_o truth_n and_o faithfulness_n in_o send_v his_o well-beloved_a son_n into_o the_o world_n that_o we_o may_v live_v through_o he_o and_o in_o not_o spare_v his_o own_o son_n but_o deliver_v he_o up_o for_o we_o all_o and_o in_o
