yet_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n as_o we_o trust_v the_o promise_n so_o we_o also_o use_v the_o rite_n both_o in_o obedience_n to_o christ_n and_o we_o use_v the_o rite_n or_o the_o sacrament_n

be_v more_o gracious_a and_o effective_a than_o adam_n be_v hurtful_a and_o that_o therefore_o it_o seem_v very_o agreeable_a to_o god_n goodness_n to_o bring_v they_o to_o happiness_n by_o christ_n who_o be_v bring_v to_o misery_n by_o adam_n and_o that_o he_o will_v do_v this_o by_o himself_o alone_o in_o way_n of_o his_o own_o find_v out_o and_o yet_o if_o god_n will_v not_o give_v they_o heaven_n by_o christ_n he_o will_v not_o throw_v they_o into_o hell_n by_o adam_n if_o his_o goodness_n will_v not_o do_v the_o first_o his_o goodness_n and_o his_o justice_n will_v not_o suffer_v
