gospel_n and_o be_v condemn_v because_o they_o believe_v not_o on_o the_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n i_o set_v down_o these_o assertion_n for_o a_o answer_n 1._o assertion_n the_o question_n be_v often_o not_o so_o much_o whether_o a_o poor_a soul_n will_v have_v christ_n or_o no_o for_o there_o be_v no_o question_n of_o that_o as_o if_o he_o will_v have_v christ_n to_o be_v his_o god_n in_o his_o own_o legal_a way_n that_o be_v if_o he_o will_v first_o be_v holy_a and_o worthy_a and_o then_o take_v christ_n for_o his_o saviour_n 2._o assertion_n god_n decree_n of_o election_n or_o his_o intention_n to_o save_v i_o be_v not_o the_o proper_a object_n of_o my_o faith_n but_o rather_o of_o my_o sense_n and_o feeling_n we_o go_v mighty_o beside_o the_o line_n in_o the_o method_n of_o believe_v when_o we_o go_v to_o believe_v at_o first_o god_n intention_n to_o save_v i_o the_o order_n be_v be_v humble_v for_o sin_n we_o be_v to_o adhere_v to_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o promise_n not_o to_o look_v to_o his_o intention_n to_o person_n but_o to_o his_o complacency_n and_o tenderness_n of_o heart_n to_o all_o humble_a sinner_n so_o paul_n 1_o tim._n 1._o 15._o embrace_v by_o

believe_v first_o the_o king_n grace_n and_o clemency_n to_o all_o humble_a supplicant_n who_o sue_v for_o grace_n before_o he_o believe_v grace_n to_o himself_o and_o if_o this_o be_v not_o the_o method_n of_o apply_v christ_n be_v unreasonable_a the_o woman_n disease_v with_o the_o bloody_a issue_n hear_v of_o jesus_n and_o therefore_o come_v and_o touch_v the_o hem_n of_o his_o garment_n
