word_n which_o promise_v forgiveness_n of_o all_o sin_n &_o peace_n to_o all_o they_o which_o accept_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n uere_o i_o say_v that_o he_o which_o upon_o these_o promise_n

of_o a_o certain_a record_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v common_o yield_v to_o all_o such_o as_o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n then_o if_o the_o holy_a ghost_n assure_v we_o that_o

that_o god_n have_v give_v they_o what_o marvel_v then_o be_v it_o if_o we_o know_v that_o god_n have_v certain_o give_v we_o everlasting_a life_n but_o there_o be_v some_o which_o say_v that_o no_o

but_o i_o will_v have_v they_o too_o tell_v i_o how_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o separate_v faith_n &_o the_o holy_a ghost_n asunder_o see_v that_o faith_n be_v the_o peculiar_a work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n if_o it_o be_v presumption_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v in_o we_o christian_n why_o do_v saint_n paul_n bid_v the_o corinthian_n try_v themselves_o whither_o they_o

that_o we_o say_v that_o faith_n make_v man_n righteous_a without_o the_o help_n of_o work_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v ready_a namely_o because_o that_o by_o faith_n we_o put_v on_o christ_n 3_n and_o
