of_o our_o nature_n and_o the_o great_a defect_n of_o our_o heart_n as_o he_o do_v of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o earth_n 3.17_o gene._n 3.17_o notwithstanding_o the_o same_o be_v accurse_v for_o man_n sin_n a_o point_n that_o may_v comfort_v we_o great_o in_o those_o assault_n that_o the_o child_n of_o god_n feel_v in_o themselnes_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o corruption_n and_o imperfection_n that_o cling_v and_o cleave_v unto_o the_o best_a thing_n they_o do_v whereof_o also_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n not_o that_o god_n delight_v in_o imperfection_n for_o that_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o nature_n which_o be_v most_o absolute_a and_o perfect_a in_o itself_o but_o because_o if_o man_n not_o only_o in_o holy_a but_o worldly_a wisdom_n also_o have_v learned_a now_o and_o then_o to_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o good_a and_o evil_a yea_o between_o their_o own_o good_a thing_n that_o other_o man_n have_v of_o they_o and_o those_o man_n ill_a like_v notwithstanding_o their_o own_o

as_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o grace_n themfelue_n that_o though_o man_n good_a thing_n may_v be_v mar_v by_o other_o man_n evil_a and_o not_o only_o the_o quality_n but_o the_o nature_n of_o they_o change_v yet_o god_n grace_n can_v be_v so_o pervert_v and_o therefore_o good_a reason_n why_o we_o shall_v comfort_v ourselves_o three_o it_o be_v as_o seem_v unto_o i_o very_o comfortable_a in_o a_o other_o respect_n namely_o that_o as_o that_o of_o the_o first_o fruit_n that_o be_v dedicate_v to_o the_o lord_n be_v a_o pledge_n of_o the_o sanctification_n of_o that_o that_o remain_v behind_o

even_o the_o begin_n of_o god_n grace_n in_o his_o child_n shall_v assure_v they_o of_o continuance_n and_o grow_v in_o the_o same_o notwithstanding_o their_o weakness_n and_o want_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o god_n deal_v not_o as_o man_n put_v his_o hand_n to_o a_o excellent_a work_n and_o by_o leave_v off_o but_o accomplish_v and_o make_v perfect_a 1.6_o phil._n 1.6_o and_o that_o until_o
