and_o therefore_o read_v i_o say_v the_o epistle_n and_o you_o shall_v find_v there_o be_v no_o one_o particular_a duty_n that_o the_o gospel_n so_o call_v for_o from_o man_n beside_o faith_n in_o

so_o in_o the_o story_n of_o the_o act_n present_o as_o soon_o as_o you_o read_v of_o any_o that_o the_o gospel_n do_v prevail_v withal_o they_o have_v one_o heart_n and_o one_o mind_n oh_o how_o do_v they_o cleave_v one_o to_o another_o their_o heart_n be_v one_o and_o so_o we_o find_v in_o the_o story_n of_o the_o primitive_a time_n i_o remember_v tertullian_n say_v that_o that_o be_v the_o way_n that_o the_o heathen_n and_o persecutor_n do_v use_v to_o find_v out_o who_o be_v christian_n for_o the_o christian_n do_v meet_v at_o night_n for_o fear_n of_o danger_n &_o do_v as_o wise_o as_o they_o can_v to_o keep_v themselves_o from_o their_o persecutor_n but_o they_o find_v this_o by_o experience_n that_o when_o they_o be_v convert_v to_o christian_a religion_n than_o there_o be_v another_o kind_n of_o spirit_n in_o they_o that_o do_v act_v they_o and_o especial_o a_o spirit_n of_o love_n one_o to_o another_o there_o be_v another_o kind_n of_o love_n of_o christian_n one_o towards_o another_o then_o than_o of_o any_o other_o society_n of_o man_n kind_a the_o heathen_n see_v this_o and_o wonder_v at_o it_o and_o it_o be_v by_o this_o that_o they_o find_v out_o who_o be_v christian_n if_o they_o see_v any_o people_n beginning_n to_o have_v a_o spirit_n of_o love_n more_o than_o before_o they_o will_v think_v sure_o these_o have_v hear_v of_o this_o christian_a

among_o they_o the_o apostle_n john_n will_v have_v such_o love_n as_o that_o christian_n shall_v be_v willing_a to_o die_v one_o for_o another_o and_o they_o do_v so_o in_o the_o primitive_a time_n oh_o this_o be_v become_v the_o gospel_n indeed_o but_o oh_o how_o far_o how_o far_o be_v we_o from_o such_o a_o conversation_n in_o such_o time_n as_o we_o live_v in_o now_o as_o if_o so_o be_v that_o the_o gospel_n be_v go_v from_o we_o we_o speak_v of_o the_o gospel_n as_o if_o it_o be_v reveal_v more_o now_o than_o ever_o and_o much_o concern_v free_a grace_n in_o the_o gospel_n but_o

of_o christian_n my_o brethren_n malicious_a disposition_n be_v extreme_o unbecoming_a the_o gospel_n hateful_a and_o malicious_a disposition_n what_o do_v a_o beastly_a brutish_a savigeness_n do_v the_o fierceness_n of_o beast_n do_v in_o the_o breast_n of_o a_o christian_a oh_o it_o be_v infinite_o unbeseeming_a a_o christian_n to_o have_v a_o unloving_a disposition_n a_o hateful_a

according_a to_o your_o master_n that_o you_o profess_v your_o life_n be_v unsuitable_a to_o your_o master_n even_o one_o that_o be_v but_o a_o heathen_a himself_o speak_v this_o oh_o if_o we_o

of_o christ_n but_o that_o it_o may_v appear_v in_o he_o that_o his_o heart_n be_v sweeten_v with_o love_n and_o that_o he_o do_v live_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o very_a element_n of_o love_n and_o

that_o we_o hear_v so_o much_o of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n or_o otherwise_o we_o be_v no_o gospeler_n we_o be_v no_o true_a professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n whatever_o profession_n we_o make_v of_o the_o gospel_n yet_o except_o there_o do_v appear_v divine_a love_n to_o act_v we_o in_o all_o that_o we_o do_v god_n will_v not_o own_v we_o for_o gospeler_n for_o certain_o it_o be_v a_o main_a scope_n that_o god_n have_v in_o the_o reveal_n the_o gospel_n to_o sweeten_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n with_o love_n either_o deny_v the_o profession_n or_o walk_v

to_o i_o a_o sinner_n but_o they_o think_v not_o of_o a_o way_n of_o god_n show_v mercy_n so_o as_o yet_o he_o may_v have_v the_o glory_n of_o infinite_a justice_n god_n seal_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o court_n of_o justice_n as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o court_n of_o mercy_n few_o think_v of_o this_o and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o people_n be_v ready_a many_o time_n to_o

sink_v like_o a_o stone_n within_o their_o breast_n but_o now_o the_o soul_n that_o see_v the_o way_n of_o god_n in_o the_o gospel_n see_v that_o god_n be_v infinite_o set_v upon_o mercy_n and_o likewise_o see_v a_o way_n how_o god_n infinite_a justice_n may_v be_v satisfy_v and_o see_v both_o these_o this_o be_v a_o mighty_a help_n to_o faith_n now_o let_v there_o come_v never_o so_o many_o

to_o any_o sin_n that_o i_o shall_v think_v to_o cover_v it_o by_o another_o sin_n by_o add_v one_o sin_n to_o another_o to_o think_v to_o shift_v for_o my_o credit_n or_o esteem_v by_o add_v more_o
