of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n in_o jesus_n christ_n whereby_o he_o be_v able_a to_o supply_v and_o succour_v all_o those_o that_o be_v tempt_v if_o a_o man_n have_v have_v a_o straight_a shoe_n upon_o his_o foot_n or_o a_o straight_a garment_n he_o know_v where_o it_o pinch_v and_o according_o he_o be_v able_a to_o get_v it_o mend_v now_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o have_v put_v on_o our_o

therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n he_o be_v in_o all_o thing_n tempt_v like_o unto_o we_o 2.18_o heb._n 2.18_o that_o he_o may_v be_v able_a to_o succour_v those_o that_o be_v tempt_v jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o only_o the_o lord-treasurer_n of_o all_o our_o comfort_n but_o the_o lord_n keeper_n of_o all_o our_o grace_n the_o near_a any_o thing_n come_v unto_o the_o fountain_n of_o excellency_n the_o more_o excellent_a it_o be_v the_o sun_n be_v the_o fountain_n of_o light_n and_o the_o near_o any_o thing_n come_v to_o the_o sun_n the_o more_o light_a it_o have_v fire_n be_v the_o fountain_n

of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n in_o jesus_n christ_n so_o whatever_o grace_n and_o holiness_n christ_n as_o mediator_n have_v receive_v by_o god_n the_o father_n he_o have_v not_o receive_v it_o for_o

if_o jesus_n christ_n do_v work_v all_o our_o work_n why_o be_v it_o not_o rather_o say_v that_o christ_n do_v repent_v and_o christ_n do_v believe_v and_o christ_n do_v obey_v i_o answer_v no._n
