many_o wise_a not_o many_o mighty_a not_o many_o noble_a be_v call_v now_o if_o god_n have_v choose_v the_o rich_a mighty_a and_o wise_a thing_n of_o the_o world_n than_o many_o rich_a mighty_a and_o

all_o man_n it_o be_v paul_n petition_n for_o the_o ephesian_n that_o they_o may_v comprehend_v the_o large_a dimension_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o so_o it_o shall_v be_v our_o earnest_a petition_n and_o endeavour_v to_o know_v and_o to_o make_v know_v the_o same_o when_o john_n describe_v the_o divine_a nature_n to_o be_v love_n he_o declare_v this_o as_o the_o most_o eminent_a

be_v root_v and_o ground_v in_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o this_o truth_n of_o the_o full_a free_a universal_a and_o individual_a love_n of_o god_n towards_o they_o in_o christ_n for_o that_o will_v fill_v their_o heart_n with_o love_n to_o god_n the_o apprehension_n of_o his_o love_n beget_v love_n in_o we_o we_o love_v he_o because_o he_o love_v we_o first_o and_o the_o reason_n why_o so_o few_o man_n love_v god_n be_v because_o so_o few_o man_n know_v he_o to_o be_v love_n and_o those_o that_o have_v some_o affection_n and_o love_n to_o god_n if_o they_o see_v more_o of_o his_o love_n will_v love_v he_o more_o and_o be_v more_o establish_v in_o his_o love_n they_o will_v not_o be_v so_o toss_v too_o and_o fro_o with_o every_o wind_n of_o temptation_n for_o they_o may_v quench_v all_o the_o fiery_a dart_n of_o satan_n the_o grand_a enemy_n of_o their_o peace_n and_o comfort_n with_o this_o consideration_n god_n be_v love_n love_n afford_v we_o a_o excellent_a argument_n to_o prevail_v with_o our_o heart_n to_o trust_v god_n in_o every_o strait_a and_o to_o close_v with_o he_o in_o every_o promise_n what_o can_v he_o deny_v we_o that_o spare_v not_o his_o son_n but_o give_v he_o to_o death_n for_o we_o the_o apprehension_n of_o this_o love_n will_v fill_v we_o with_o joy_n and_o contentment_n in_o all_o condition_n it_o will_v make_v we_o to_o do_v and_o suffer_v with_o delight_n love_n make_v we_o one_o with_o god_n it_o quicken_v and_o enlarge_v we_o add_v fullness_n and_o perfection_n to_o all_o our_o service_n make_v we_o fervent_a in_o spirit_n serve_v the_o lord_n but_o where_o there_o be_v little_a love_n there_o be_v little_a life_n in_o what_o be_v do_v for_o love_n be_v the_o soul_n love_n be_v the_o substance_n of_o religion_n knowledge_n puff_v up_o love_n build_v up_o knowledge_n make_v a_o man_n seem_v to_o be_v but_o love_n make_v a_o man_n to_o be_v indeed_o for_o he_o that_o be_v full_a of_o love_n be_v full_a of_o god_n for_o god_n be_v love_n he_o be_v the_o fountain_n and_o father_n of_o love_n love_n will_v teach_v we_o to_o deny_v all_o ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o live_v righteous_o and_o holy_o in_o this_o present_a world_n for_o love_n will_v do_v nothing_o unpleasing_a to_o the_o thing_n it_o love_v therefore_o see_v this_o truth_n be_v so_o excellent_a how_o shall_v we_o labour_v to_o preserve_v it_o in_o its_o fullness_n beauty_n and_o glory_n it_o be_v the_o ground_n and_o foundation_n of_o all_o our_o hope_n it_o be_v our_o life_n all_o our_o spring_n be_v in_o
