&_o so_o by_o consequent_a of_o his_o righteousness_n now_o saint_n paul_n show_v that_o this_o temporal_a life_n hinder_v not_o but_o that_o we_o may_v always_o live_v that_o be_v to_o say_v may_v

at_o this_o that_o we_o live_v in_o death_n and_o that_o we_o be_v in_o heaven_n &_o be_v citizen_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n although_o we_o shall_v dwell_v in_o this_o world_n &_o shall_v

which_o have_v always_o be_v in_o god_n and_o his_o counsel_n and_o his_o power_n true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o have_v not_o in_o this_o place_n the_o thing_n declare_v and_o set_v out_o as_o they_o

and_o plain_o declare_v as_o that_o we_o be_v able_a too_o understand_v the_o same_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o we_o understand_v the_o matter_n of_o the_o world_n but_o let_v we_o content_v ourselves_o with_o that_o which_o be_v here_o simple_o declare_v untoo_o we_o child_n god_n have_v in_o his_o word_n reveal_v sufficient_a for_o his_o child_n for_o our_o lord_n know_v that_o which_o be_v

these_o matter_n man_n have_v overwhelm_v themselves_o in_o asmuch_o as_o they_o mean_v beside_o the_o revelation_n of_o of_o the_o doctrine_n to_o search_v out_o with_o a_o certain_a curiosity_n

unless_o that_o god_n do_v strengthen_v they_o against_o assault_n let_v we_o take_v then_o the_o most_o valiant_a man_n in_o the_o world_n god_n the_o best_a be_v not_o able_a to_o stand_v without_o
