promise_v unto_o his_o elect_n and_o perfect_v in_o they_o the_o prescribe_a condition_n of_o faith_n and_o repentance_n these_o be_v gomarus_n his_o own_o word_n true_o translate_v which_o together_o

be_v a_o positive_a law_n according_a to_o which_o god_n proceed_v in_o his_o deal_n with_o men._n 2._o that_o the_o say_v positive_a law_n be_v not_o only_o a_o law_n to_o god_n himself_o but_o that_o it_o be_v a_o positive_a law_n to_o we_o appoint_v unto_o we_o a_o set_n and_o state_v order_n of_o walk_v and_o prescribe_v a_o condition_n to_o be_v perform_v by_o we_o through_o grace_n that_o we_o may_v obtain_v salvation_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o righteousness_n only_o 3._o that_o the_o say_a order_n be_v by_o necessary_a consequence_n a_o conditional_a order_n with_o respect_n to_o we_o and_o that_o it_o be_v require_v of_o we_o to_o observe_v the_o conditional_a order_n and_o to_o perform_v the_o condition_n in_o order_n to_o obtain_v the_o blessing_n

that_o he_o do_v not_o exhort_v he_o to_o faith_n in_o christ_n and_o repentance_n towards_o god_n he_o must_v not_o tell_v he_o that_o faith_n and_o repentance_n be_v both_o duty_n indispensable_o

you_o may_v take_v thus_o poor_a sinner_n by_o the_o covenant_n of_o life_n and_o salvation_n god_n require_v neither_o faith_n nor_o repentance_n of_o thou_o he_o require_v no_o duty_n of_o thou_o
