of_o the_o jew_n for_o of_o the_o gentile_n he_o say_v i_o be_v find_v of_o they_o that_o seek_v i_o not_o but_o to_o israel_n he_o say_v all_o the_o day_n long_o i_o have_v stretch_v out_o my_o

but_o in_o hypocrisy_n they_o be_v in_o their_o heart_n a_o gainsay_n and_o rebellious_a people_n whereas_o the_o gentile_n many_o of_o they_o have_v not_o such_o a_o show_n of_o external_a devotion_n

of_o truth_n as_o it_o be_v outward_o publish_v by_o the_o apostle_n than_o do_v the_o jew_n notwithstanding_o all_o their_o great_a profession_n oh_o that_o the_o late_a professor_n can_v read_v their_o figure_n in_o this_o at_o this_o day_n some_o may_v object_v that_o it_o be_v say_v there_o be_v no_o difference_n betwixt_o jew_n and_o gentile_n but_o the_o same_o lord_n be_v rich_a unto_o all_o that_o call_v upon_o he_o which_o will_v seem_v to_o import_v that_o such_o a_o rich_a mercy_n as_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v only_o give_v to_o believer_n and_o they_o that_o call_v on_o his_o name_n as_o it_o be_v else_o where_o say_v he_o give_v grace_n to_o the_o humble_a whereas_o we_o say_v he_o give_v grace_n unto_o all_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v these_o scripture_n do_v not_o

that_o they_o may_v become_v believer_n and_o true_a and_o humble_a seeker_n of_o he_o as_o many_o have_v become_v such_o who_o be_v as_o bad_a as_o any_o but_o who_o do_v resist_v the_o lord_n and_o

because_o there_o be_v a_o universal_a principle_n of_o faith_n and_o godliness_n in_o all_o man_n which_o be_v the_o free_a gift_n of_o god_n therefore_o it_o be_v that_o man_n can_v be_v so_o

the_o punishment_n of_o their_o sin_n no_o that_o be_v false_a it_o be_v the_o punishment_n and_o consequent_a of_o adam_n sin_n only_o and_o as_o to_o these_o word_n levi_n pay_v tithe_n in_o
