manifold_a salvation_n and_o deliverance_n yea_o the_o deliverance_n have_v in_o some_o sort_n bear_v the_o resemblance_n and_o proportion_n of_o the_o mean_n a_o piece_n of_o a_o deliverance_n have_v follow_v a_o piece_n of_o repentance_n and_o such_o be_v that_o of_o rehoboam_n 14._o 2_o chron._n 12._o 7._o 12._o 14._o who_o heart_n be_v not_o perfect_a with_o the_o lord_n 29._o 1_o king_n 21._o

the_o temporal_a deal_v not_o foolish_o and_o speak_v not_o with_o a_o stiff_a neck_n say_v not_o ashur_n shall_v save_v we_o and_o we_o will_v fly_v into_o egypt_n natural_a help_n be_v like_o the_o

and_o they_o all_o shall_v fail_v together_o man_n and_o horse_n be_v thing_n visible_a god_n and_o spirit_n be_v thing_n invisible_a and_o therefore_o do_v visible_a man_n fail_v to_o help_v because_o they_o be_v not_o equal_a in_o power_n to_o the_o invisible_a god_n and_o therefore_o shall_v horse_n fail_v because_o they_o be_v not_o equal_a to_o spiritual_a and_o invisible_a strength_n wherefore_o henceforth_o do_v thou_o especial_o choose_v those_o help_n which_o be_v spiritual_a and_o invisible_a because_o they_o be_v strong_a and_o believe_v more_o strength_n to_o be_v in_o the_o

god_n to_o open_v thy_o eye_n for_o then_o shall_v thou_o see_v a_o most_o mighty_a power_n in_o they_o and_o that_o when_o spiritual_a help_n be_v on_o our_o side_n there_o be_v more_o with_o we_o than_o there_o be_v with_o they_o that_o have_v earthly_a and_o visible_a help_n wherefore_o henceforth_o far_o be_v from_o we_o the_o trust_n and_o rest_n in_o natural_a thing_n which_o be_v the_o

a_o three_o and_o i_o wish_v it_o have_v not_o be_v speak_v before_o the_o late_a pestilence_n in_o my_o hear_n that_o the_o new_a river_n have_v wash_v away_o the_o plague_n for_o ever_o from_o the_o

be_v the_o soul_n of_o help_n and_o as_o the_o body_n without_o the_o soul_n be_v dead_a so_o all_o bodily_a help_n without_o spiritual_a help_n be_v without_o life_n and_o power_n wherefore_o we_o
