i_o know_v not_o the_o particular_n of_o the_o design_n but_o the_o king_n have_v the_o lord_n howard_n mr._n west_n and_o other_o that_o know_v more_o than_o i._o i_o be_v never_o in_o council_n

of_o people_n do_v not_o only_o come_v here_o to_o see_v i_o die_v but_o also_o to_o hear_v what_o i_o shall_v say_v and_o because_o i_o will_v not_o be_v reproach_v and_o think_v to_o be_v a_o

believe_v that_o the_o scripture_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o they_o be_v not_o write_v according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o man_n but_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n write_v they_o as_o they_o be_v inspire_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n i_o believe_v that_o these_o scripture_n ought_v to_o be_v the_o rule_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o the_o method_n of_o our_o worship_v of_o god_n i_o believe_v that_o as_o christ_n be_v the_o head_n of_o his_o church_n so_o he_o be_v then_o law_n giver_n that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o any_o council_n

word_n of_o god_n i_o believe_v it_o be_v not_o because_o the_o jew_n reject_v and_o crucify_a christ_n that_o he_o reject_v they_o but_o because_o they_o reject_v his_o word_n which_o appear_v by_o the_o three_o thousand_o that_o god_n by_o one_o sermon_n of_o peter_n convert_v they_o be_v prick_v in_o their_o heart_n and_o touch_v in_o their_o conscience_n cry_v out_o man_n and_o brethren_n what_o shall_v we_o do_v and_o they_o be_v that_o day_n add_v to_o the_o church_n it_o be_v certain_o because_o the_o jew_n reject_v the_o word_n and_o gospel_n of_o christ_n that_o the_o thing_n be_v hide_v from_o their_o eye_n which_o belong_v to_o their_o peace_n it_o be_v a_o dreadful_a thing_n to_o reject_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o it_o be_v a_o dreadful_a thing_n to_o live_v in_o a_o sinful_a course_n of_o life_n till_o god_n withdraw_v his_o spirit_n from_o we_o for_o it_o be_v say_v it_o shall_v not_o always_o strive_v with_o man_n death_n be_v the_o wage_n of_o sin_n i_o believe_v have_v not_o adam_n sin_v he_o and_o we_o his_o posterity_n have_v not_o dye_v death_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o king_n of_o terror_n but_o it_o be_v only_o so_o to_o those_o that_o be_v

no_o assurance_n of_o pardon_n but_o those_o that_o be_v christ_n he_o take_v away_o the_o terror_n and_o horror_n and_o sting_v of_o death_n he_o enable_v they_o to_o say_v with_o paul_n to_o i_o to_o live_v be_v christ_n and_o to_o die_v be_v gain_v he_o enable_v not_o only_o to_o get_v unto_o christ_n but_o into_o christ_n and_o so_o they_o have_v communion_n and_o fellowship_n with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n it_o be_v no_o hard_a matter_n to_o get_v the_o notion_n of_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o gospel_n into_o our_o head_n but_o unless_o the_o lord_n be_v please_v to_o apply_v they_o to_o our_o heart_n we_o can_v believe_v except_o we_o be_v in_o christ_n as_o branch_n in_o the_o vine_n we_o be_v not_o christian_n indeed_o it_o be_v the_o case_n of_o poor_a francis_n spira_n he_o be_v certain_o a_o know_a man_n but_o notwithstanding_o he_o have_v not_o faith_n to_o apply_v the_o promise_n christ_n have_v say_v that_o he_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o though_o he_o be_v dead_a yet_o shall_v he_o live_v and_o he_o that_o live_v and_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v never_o die_v so_o if_o we_o be_v able_a to_o apply_v the_o promise_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n we_o may_v have_v comfort_n through_o faith_n but_o then_o faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o receive_v it_o in_o the_o love_n of_o
