see_v they_o worship_v other_o god_n &_o therefore_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o the_o word_n shall_v be_v a_o conditional_a word_n again_o the_o lord_n say_v to_o israel_n you_o shall_v keep_v my_o

appear_v that_o the_o word_n shall_v be_v not_o without_o any_o condition_n and_o then_o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o israel_n you_o shall_v walk_v in_o all_o the_o way_n that_o i_o have_v command_v as_o you_o may_v see_v deut._n 15._o 33._o now_o if_o this_o word_n shall_v have_v be_v without_o any_o condition_n than_o they_o shall_v never_o have_v disobey_v the_o command_n but_o we_o see_v they_o do_v and_o therefore_o the_o word_n shall_v be_v a_o conditional_a word_n and_o so_o they_o shall_v be_v my_o people_n be_v but_o a_o conditional_a word_n that_o be_v this_o if_o they_o embrace_v my_o

will_n be_v a_o conditional_a word_n as_o do_v appear_v for_o as_o i_o live_v say_v the_o lord_n i_o will_v not_o the_o death_n of_o a_o sinner_n now_o if_o there_o be_v no_o condition_n in_o this_o

than_o all_o man_n shall_v be_v draw_v and_o he_o will_v that_o all_o man_n shall_v be_v save_v and_o he_o will_v not_o that_o any_o man_n shall_v perish_v 1_o tim._n 2._o 2_o pet._n 3._o now_o if_o

1._o &_o therefore_o you_o see_v that_o the_o word_n shall_v &_o will_v be_v conditional_a &_o therefore_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v a_o conditional_a covenant_n for_o as_o i_o have_v show_v
