they_o have_v believe_v and_o again_o believe_v after_o they_o have_v deny_v no_o doubt_n as_o they_o confess_v in_o word_n who_o condemnation_n be_v nevertheless_o their_o not_o believe_v for_o

but_o if_o they_o have_v do_v this_o their_o faith_n have_v clear_o fail_v yet_o because_o they_o sin_v notorious_o &_o grievous_o commit_v that_o which_o they_o know_v to_o be_v express_o forbid_v by_o the_o law_n which_o say_v thou_o shall_v worship_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o he_o only_o shall_v thou_o serve_v necessary_a it_o be_v that_o he_o which_o purpose_v to_o save_v their_o soul_n

that_o i_o shall_v deny_v that_o they_o be_v his_o sheep_n if_o i_o shall_v grant_v that_o through_o error_n they_o perish_v it_o be_v a_o perilous_a opinion_n that_o they_o hold_v perilous_a even_o
