upon_o the_o lord_n to_o see_v all_o that_o bring_v to_o pass_v which_o you_o have_v believe_v for_o i_o take_v notice_n by_o the_o eye_n that_o god_n have_v open_v in_o i_o by_o which_o he_o have_v make_v i_o to_o take_v care_n of_o his_o flock_n and_o sometime_o put_v his_o word_n in_o my_o mouth_n that_o i_o may_v speak_v a_o word_n in_o due_a season_n i_o say_v by_o this_o eye_n i_o take_v notice_n of_o many_o that_o have_v receive_v this_o precious_a faith_n and_o thereby_o have_v believe_v thereby_o have_v believe_v the_o great_a and_o high_a state_n their_o faith_n reach_v so_o far_o they_o know_v that_o power_n be_v able_a to_o bring_v they_o into_o a_o perfect_a dominion_n over_o their_o lust_n and_o passion_n and_o corruption_n and_o over_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o world_n over_o pride_n over_o anger_n over_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v opposite_a to_o the_o divine_a life_n their_o faith_n be_v as_o sound_a as_o we_o can_v preach_v it_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o extent_n of_o it_o but_o their_o faith_n have_v not_o reach_v thus_o far_o in_o its_o operation_n upon_o their_o heart_n they_o have_v not_o have_v the_o power_n go_v on_o to_o accomplish_v and_o fulfil_v that_o which_o remain_v be_v there_o not_o some_o here_o and_o there_o that_o be_v settle_v in_o the_o belief_n of_o the_o truth_n but_o be_v get_v into_o a_o ease_n from_o the_o labour_n of_o the_o truth_n but_o if_o i_o be_v sound_n in_o the_o faith_n my_o understanding_n be_v open_v i_o do_v not_o only_o believe_v this_o matter_n but_o have_v inward_a evidence_n and_o demonstration_n that_o i_o be_o certain_a past_o all_o doubt_n and_o question_n of_o it_o that_o the_o lord_n reveal_v the_o power_n in_o they_o that_o believe_v that_o purify_v they_o and_o make_v they_o every_o whit_n clean_o and_o here_o i_o have_v a_o fellowship_n and_o communion_n with_o they_o that_o preach_v and_o they_o that_o believe_v but_o my_o friend_n all_o this_o will_v not_o give_v you_o communion_n with_o god_n though_o there_o be_v communion_n with_o the_o church_n of_o god_n with_o respect_n to_o man_n who_o be_v come_v into_o one_o faith_n and_o doctrine_n yet_o for_o fellowship_n with_o god_n it_o stand_v in_o a_o life_n beyond_o all_o doctrine_n and_o beyond_o all_o word_n and_o expression_n therefore_o your_o business_n and_o i_o and_o every_o one_o that_o we_o first_o undertake_v when_o our_o face_n be_v first_o turn_v to_o god_n that_o we_o may_v be_v follower_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o regeneration_n for_o many_o may_v be_v firm_a in_o point_n of_o doctrine_n and_o yet_o may_v not_o follow_v christ_n jesus_n many_o hold_v the_o truth_n but_o do_v not_o hold_v it_o in_o righteousness_n but_o unrighteousness_n now_o my_o friend_n have_v a_o care_v your_o religion_n and_o your_o soul_n eternal_a welfare_n be_v concern_v this_o doctrine_n i_o leave_v you_o in_o charge_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n flatter_v not_o yourselves_o never_o a_o one_o of_o you_o because_o of_o the_o soundness_n of_o your_o belief_n but_o look_v for_o soundness_n of_o heart_n and_o for_o a_o right_a spirit_n to_o be_v create_v in_o you_o a_o spirit_n that_o can_v no_o way_n endure_v any_o thing_n that_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n have_v make_v manifest_a to_o be_v evil_a if_o it_o be_v truth_n you_o own_o then_o exercise_v faith_n upon_o it_o and_o whatsoever_o sin_n or_o temptation_n assault_v you_o say_v i_o shall_v overcome_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jehovah_n i_o shall_v bring_v thou_o under_o be_v what_o lust_n passion_n or_o corruption_n soever_o thou_o will_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n i_o shall_v overcome_v thou_o and_o bring_v thou_o under_o travel_v on_o in_o the_o faith_n commit_v to_o you_o and_o you_o will_v be_v more_o than_o conqueror_n you_o will_v not_o only_o grow_v into_o external_a fellowship_n with_o the_o people_n of_o god_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n but_o into_o fellowship_n with_o the_o church_n of_o the_o first_o bear_v who_o name_n be_v write_v in_o heaven_n and_o your_o communion_n will_v not_o be_v in_o word_n and_o doctrine_n and_o principle_n of_o faith_n but_o your_o communion_n will_v be_v with_o god_n the_o father_n and_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n and_o so_o in_o all_o your_o meeting_n together_o the_o joy_n of_o the_o lord_n will_v be_v your_o strength_n and_o the_o joy_n of_o his_o great_a salvation_n your_o cover_v and_o he_o will_v manifest_v his_o gracious_a presence_n with_o you_o and_o that_o power_n which_o have_v keep_v you_o to_o this_o day_n from_o your_o childhood_n and_o preserve_v you_o in_o all_o your_o battle_n and_o conflict_n with_o the_o world_n and_o strengthen_v and_o encourage_v you_o when_o you_o sometime_o go_v sorrow_v and_o mourn_a night_n and_o day_n and_o fear_v lest_o you_o shall_v not_o overcome_v your_o adversary_n that_o power_n that_o have_v keep_v you_o hitherto_o will_v do_v great_a thing_n for_o you_o than_o you_o have_v yet_o be_v witness_n of_o therefore_o dear_a friend_n this_o i_o will_v leave_v with_o you_o there_o be_v nothing_o will_v keep_v you_o and_o i_o in_o that_o little_a time_n that_o remain_v

we_o to_o the_o uttermost_a let_v we_o wait_v to_o see_v the_o power_n of_o god_n for_o sanctification_n and_o holiness_n that_o will_v reach_v as_o far_o as_o save_v we_o from_o our_o sin_n this_o have_v be_v the_o great_a reproach_n that_o ever_o our_o adversary_n have_v throw_v upon_o we_o that_o there_o be_v some_o among_o we_o that_o talk_v of_o believe_v in_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o

that_o ever_o our_o adversary_n have_v throw_v upon_o we_o whosoever_o have_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o reproach_n god_n will_v require_v it_o of_o they_o for_o the_o lord_n be_v jealous_a of_o
