the_o article_n of_o our_o creed_n god_n have_v pardon_v and_o forgive_v i_o my_o sin_n and_o my_o fellow_n brethren_n their_o sin_n yet_o will_v i_o pray_v daily_o &_o hourly_o for_o their_o

our_o pardon_n so_o be_v it_o well_o do_v on_o our_o part_n by_o renew_v &_o reiterated_a supplication_n to_o renew_v and_o reiterate_v our_o confidence_n and_o assurance_n of_o mercy_n not_o that_o i_o think_v in_o any_o case_n the_o eternal_a and_o immutable_a pardon_n of_o god_n give_v we_o from_o eternity_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n can_v ever_o be_v full_o or_o final_o lose_v or_o invert_v no_o no_o the_o gift_n and_o calling_n of_o god_n be_v without_o change_n or_o alteration_n but_o because_o the_o frequency_n of_o our_o sin_n do_v weaken_v our_o confidence_n and_o hope_n of_o pardon_n therefore_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o by_o the_o reiteration_n of_o our_o prayer_n we_o may_v strengthen_v and_o renew_v our_o hope_n &_o confidence_n of_o remission_n and_o that_o

pray_v for_o the_o great_a sinner_n in_o the_o world_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n concern_v the_o salvation_n or_o condemnation_n of_o man_n though_o one_o in_o itself_o yet_o be_v two_o way_n to_o be_v consider_v of_o we_o first_o as_o hide_a and_o keep_v close_o in_o the_o bosom_n of_o the_o father_n second_o as_o reveal_v and_o manifest_v by_o his_o word_n whilst_o the_o salvation_n and_o reprobation_n of_o man_n be_v only_o know_v to_o god_n we_o be_v bind_v to_o pray_v for_o they_o and_o the_o pardon_n of_o their_o sin_n but_o if_o at_o any_o time_n god_n in_o his_o word_n make_v their_o rejection_n manifest_a then_o and_o then_o only_o be_v it_o time_n for_o we_o to_o shut_v up_o our_o mouth_n and_o not_o to_o pray_v for_o they_o this_o truth_n shall_v be_v clear_v by_o example_n whilst_o samuel_n be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n concern_v saul_n he_o cease_v not_o continual_o to_o pray_v for_o he_o but_o how_o soon_o god_n once_o make_v his_o secret_a purpose_n of_o rejection_n know_v to_o samuel_n he_o stop_v his_o mouth_n &_o pray_v no_o more_o for_o he_o whilst_o david_n know_v not_o the_o will_n of_o god_n concern_v his_o child_n beget_v with_o bathsheba_n he_o fast_v pray_v and_o will_v not_o be_v comfort_v but_o how_o soon_o god_n make_v his_o secret_n will_v manifest_v by_o the_o death_n of_o the_o child_n he_o mourn_v no_o more_o but_o rise_v straight_o refresh_v himself_o and_o eat_v bread_n final_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o all_o that_o partiality_n which_o by_o many_o be_v condemn_v in_o rebecca_n concern_v her_o son_n esau_n she_o be_v acquaint_v with_o the_o secret_a purpose_n of_o god_n concern_v he_o i_o have_v love_v jacob_n and_o hate_v esau_n and_o again_o the_o elder_a shall_v serve_v the_o young_a thus_o so_o long_o as_o god_n make_v not_o his_o secret_a purpose_n know_v concern_v man_n we_o be_v bind_v to_o pray_v for_o all_o man_n but_o so_o soon_o as_o god_n make_v know_v his_o
