the_o first_o chapter_n practise_v indeed_o be_v a_o excellent_a mean_n to_o prevent_v the_o fall_n as_o we_o shall_v show_v when_o we_o come_v to_o the_o doctrine_n but_o it_o be_v not_o the_o main_a we_o have_v a_o high_a cause_n of_o stand_v then_o our_o own_o endeavour_n to_o wit_n the_o divine_a power_n or_o else_o we_o shall_v quick_o fall_v for_o any_o thing_n we_o be_v able_a to_o do_v by_o

add_v grace_n unto_o grace_n be_v a_o especial_a mean_n to_o prevent_v backesliding_a and_o that_o practice_n be_v a_o especial_a mean_n to_o prevent_v backslide_n it_o be_v manifest_a out_o of_o

be_v likewise_o a_o mean_n to_o prevent_v backslide_n it_o be_v evident_a for_o these_o word_n in_o the_o text_n if_o you_o do_v these_o thing_n you_o shall_v never_o fall_v have_v relation_n to_o that_o which_o go_v before_o in_o the_o five_o sixth_o and_o seven_o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n where_o we_o be_v exhort_v to_o add_v grace_n unto_o grace_n which_o if_o we_o do_v we_o have_v

grace_n unto_o grace_n must_v needs_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o prevent_v backslide_n use_v use_v this_o serve_v to_o descry_v unto_o we_o the_o reason_n that_o so_o many_o carnal_a gospeler_n fall_v off_o

it_o if_o they_o do_v turn_v their_o talk_n into_o practice_n they_o shall_v stand_v more_o firm_o than_o they_o do_v 2._o this_o show_v the_o very_a cause_n why_o many_o of_o god_n child_n do_v fall_v from_o the_o first_o forwardness_n it_o be_v partly_o want_v of_o practice_n and_o partly_o want_v of_o add_v grace_n unto_o grace_n many_o of_o the_o child_n of_o god_n for_o want_v of_o
