his_o surety_n in_o who_o hand_n the_o pardon_n be_v to_o give_v it_o he_o that_o so_o he_o may_v be_v set_v at_o liberty_n let_v i_o tell_v you_o satan_n many_o time_n assault_v the_o soul_n and_o

the_o scripture_n it_o be_v frequent_a to_o ask_v the_o thing_n produce_v a_o benefit_n for_o the_o effect_n sake_n as_o for_o instance_n we_o may_v desire_v to_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n when_o we_o mean_v the_o benefit_n that_o redound_v to_o we_o from_o it_o so_o that_o the_o sum_n and_o substance_n of_o what_o i_o have_v say_v be_v first_o that_o sin_n be_v full_o satisfy_v for_o

though_o he_o may_v be_v free_v yet_o be_v in_o trouble_n or_o fear_v again_o for_o according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o his_o faith_n such_o be_v his_o assurance_n and_o consolation_n &_o then_o he_o may_v pray_v for_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o full_a assurance_n of_o it_o and_o may_v ask_v for_o pardon_n of_o sin_n as_o it_o include_v his_o right_n to_o be_v

you_o say_v that_o a_o saint_n after_o believe_v may_v fear_v again_o which_o if_o it_o be_v true_a object_n why_o do_v the_o apostle_n say_v we_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n again_o to_o fear_v in_o answer_n to_o this_o we_o must_v know_v paul_n be_v not_o there_o go_v about_o sol._n to_o tell_v they_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o they_o to_o fear_v again_o but_o his_o intent_n be_v there_o to_o hold_v forth_o the_o excellency_n of_o the_o spirit_n it_o be_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n engender_v to_o fear_v that_o they_o have_v receive_v through_o

to_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o wrath_n or_o condemnation_n for_o he_o be_v bless_v who_o sin_n be_v cover_v or_o pardon_v the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n prove_v the_o second_o say_v there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n if_o all_o sin_n be_v not_o pardon_v at_o once_o than_o some_o be_v not_o cover_v arg._n 2_o which_o be_v evident_a if_o we_o
