through_o he_o so_o i_o say_v if_o there_o be_v as_o i_o may_v speak_v with_o reverence_n somewhat_o of_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o god_n in_o the_o old_a world_n condemnation_n why_o then_o

heaven_n and_o salvation_n to_o be_v of_o one_o piece_n he_o will_v have_v the_o work_n of_o heaven_n to_o be_v all_o the_o same_o now_o there_o be_v many_o angel_n that_o fall_v and_o many_o

man_n and_o angel_n in_o heaven_n be_v of_o the_o same_o choir_n and_o sing_v the_o same_o song_n and_o therefore_o those_o man_n that_o be_v fate_v o_o who_o be_v they_o why_o they_o be_v the_o

shall_v miss_v of_o salvation_n as_o god_n will_v punish_v and_o condemn_v all_o the_o proud_a all_o the_o wicked_a that_o none_o shall_v escape_v so_o he_o will_v also_o save_v all_o that_o he_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o save_v by_o free_a grace_n because_o they_o shall_v not_o miss_v of_o salvation_n five_o god_n will_v save_v man_n in_o such_o a_o way_n as_o whereby_o he_o may_v be_v glorify_v to_o all_o eternity_n and_o therefore_o he_o save_v they_o in_o a_o way_n of_o free_a grace_n and_o love_n for_o what_o have_v we_o to_o praise_n god_n for_o in_o heaven_n but_o only_o for_o free_a grace_n free_a grace_n to_o glorify_v his_o name_n for_o that_o therefore_o i_o say_v god_n will_v save_v man_n in_o this_o way_n of_o free_a love_n and_o grace_n that_o he_o may_v be_v thereby_o

by_o free_a grace_n if_o free_a grace_n and_o love_n be_v the_o foundation_n of_o our_o salvation_n why_o shall_v we_o not_o then_o stand_v clear_a from_o all_o our_o own_o work_n as_o to_o the_o meritorious_a end_n of_o they_o for_o grace_n and_o work_n be_v oppose_v and_o therefore_o faith_n as_o a_o work_n can_v neither_o justify_v nor_o save_v i_o confess_v the_o apostle_n say_v work_v out_o your_o own_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a but_o what_o follow_v for_o it_o be_v god_n that_o work_v in_o you_o both_o to_o will_v and_o to_o do_v of_o his_o good_a pleasure_n phil._n 2.12_o 13._o second_o if_o we_o be_v save_v by_o grace_n why_o shall_v we_o not_o be_v tender_a of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n of_o the_o free_a grace_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o great_a name_n of_o god_n be_v you_o save_v by_o grace_n and_o will_v you_o turn_v grace_n into_o wantonness_n oh_o my_o friend_n i_o say_v if_o you_o be_v save_v by_o grace_n and_o by_o grace_n alone_o how_o tender_a shall_v you_o be_v of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o free_a grace_n of_o god_n three_o if_o we_o be_v save_v by_o grace_n than_o we_o may_v here_o see_v the_o reason_n why_o many_o do_v take_v so_o much_o pain_n as_o they_o think_v for_o heaven_n and_o yet_o fall_v short_a of_o it_o and_o go_v to_o hell_n why_o it_o be_v because_o salvation_n lie_v under_o the_o conduct_n of_o free_a grace_n some_o man_n abstain_v from_o sin_n that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v damn_v other_o perform_v holy_a duty_n read_v and_o hear_v etc._n etc._n that_o they_o may_v go_v to_o heaven_n yea_o many_o strive_v and_o shall_v not_o enter_v because_o salvation_n be_v of_o free_a grace_n four_o if_o by_o grace_n you_o be_v save_v and_o that_o there_o be_v much_o of_o the_o free_a grace_n of_o god_n in_o our_o salvation_n why_o then_o shall_v you_o doubt_v of_o it_o i_o confess_v it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n to_o have_v assurance_n of_o your_o salvation_n and_o if_o you_o have_v it_o it_o be_v free_a grace_n to_o you_o more_o than_o to_o another_o and_o free_a grace_n be_v the_o founder_n of_o it_o if_o you_o have_v it_o but_o yet_o o_o soul_n if_o by_o grace_n we_o be_v save_v let_v we_o not_o then_o doubt_v of_o it_o for_o it_o be_v most_o sure_a if_o you_o be_v save_v by_o grace_n i_o say_v why_o doubt_v you_o then_o o_o you_o of_o little_a faith_n o_o christian_n comfort_v yourselves_o with_o these_o word_n it_o be_v your_o father_n good_a pleasure_n to_o give_v you_o the_o kingdom_n luke_n 12.32_o it_o be_v his_o good_a will_n and_o pleasure_n it_o be_v in_o a_o way_n of_o free_a grace_n and_o love_n but_o you_o may_v say_v though_o it_o be_v in_o a_o way_n of_o free_a grace_n and_o love_n yet_o it_o may_v not_o be_v for_o i_o it_o may_v none_o of_o it_o be_v i_o say_v the_o soul_n nay_o say_v not_o so_o but_o mark_v what_o a_o inference_n the_o psalmist_n make_v and_o draw_v up_o from_o this_o general_n psalm_n 130.4_o 5._o but_o there_o be_v forgiveness_n with_o thou_o that_o thou_o may_v be_v fear_v i_o wait_v for_o the_o lord_n my_o soul_n do_v wait_v and_o in_o his_o word_n do_v i_o hope_v and_o so_o in_o psal_n 103._o speak_v at_o large_a of_o the_o grace_n mercy_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n in_o the_o 8._o verse_n he_o say_v the_o lord_n be_v merciful_a and_o gracious_a slow_a to_o anger_n and_o

be_v in_o suffering_n many_o that_o be_v first_o shall_v be_v last_o and_o so_o it_o shall_v be_v in_o service_n in_o employment_n and_o in_o labour_n for_o after_o he_o have_v speak_v this_o

in_o the_o way_n of_o free_a grace_n or_o free_a love_n first_o i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o great_a mercy_n to_o be_v use_v for_o god_n or_o by_o god_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o service_n or_o suffering_n it_o be_v a_o great_a mercy_n to_o be_v employ_v in_o any_o work_n for_o god_n for_o first_o the_o more_o serviceable_a any_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v for_o god_n the_o more_o they_o honour_n god_n and_o the_o more_o they_o honour_n god_n the_o more_o will_v god_n honour_v they_o when_o i_o testify_v of_o any_o excellency_n in_o god_n than_o i_o honour_v god_n when_o god_n testify_v of_o any_o

put_v any_o honour_n upon_o a_o common_a soldier_n he_o call_v he_o forth_o to_o special_a service_n so_o it_o be_v a_o honour_n for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v serviceable_a to_o god_n this_o be_v the_o honour_n of_o moses_n moses_n the_o servant_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n put_v a_o honour_n upon_o david_n he_o say_v the_o psalm_n of_o david_n the_o servant_n of_o the_o

second_o the_o more_o serviceable_a any_o man_n be_v for_o god_n in_o his_o generation_n the_o more_o apt_a god_n be_v to_o accept_v of_o his_o work_n though_o there_o be_v fail_n in_o the_o work_n observe_v what_o great_a fail_n there_o be_v in_o aaron_n yet_o god_n accept_v of_o the_o work_n three_o the_o more_o serviceable_a any_o man_n be_v while_o he_o live_v the_o more_o comfortable_o he_o will_v die_v when_o he_o come_v to_o die_v what_o be_v a_o man_n comfort_n upon_o his_o deathbed_n but_o that_o according_a to_o his_o measure_n he_o have_v serve_v god_n say_v christ_n glorify_v i_o

will_v be_v his_o comfort_n at_o the_o day_n of_o death_n four_o the_o more_o serviceable_a any_o man_n be_v whilst_o he_o live_v the_o more_o he_o shall_v speak_v when_o he_o be_v dead_a there_o be_v they_o that_o be_v dead_a yet_o speak_v why_o what_o speak_v abel_n but_o faith_n good_a work_n good_a example_n he_o offer_v a_o better_a sacrifice_n than_o cain_n he_o be_v true_o serviceable_a to_o

be_v serviceable_a to_o the_o devil_n and_o that_o write_v wicked_a and_o wanton_a book_n that_o speak_v when_o he_o be_v dead_a so_o be_v it_o with_o a_o man_n that_o be_v serviceable_a unto_o god_n this_o honour_n be_v in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n above_o all_o other_o and_o to_o say_v no_o more_o this_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v desire_v more_o in_o some_o respect_n than_o the_o

it_o be_v a_o great_a mercy_n to_o serve_v for_o god_n so_o be_v it_o not_o a_o great_a mercy_n to_o suffer_v for_o god_n to_o be_v call_v out_o to_o suffer_v for_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n for_o say_v the_o former_a chapter_n we_o have_v forsake_v father_n and_o mother_n wife_n and_o child_n house_n and_o land_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o christ_n but_o say_v christ_n he_o that_o forsake_v so_o
