ere_o long_o will_v not_o be_v it_o be_v near_o part_v with_o we_o and_o we_o shall_v be_v so_o with_o it_o eternity_n be_v at_o hand_n and_o we_o live_v upon_o the_o border_n of_o it_o this_o world_n have_v not_o long_o to_o be_v nor_o we_o long_v to_o be_v in_o it_o when_o you_o go_v out_o of_o it_o you_o enter_v upon_o eternity_n you_o go_v to_o a_o eternal_a world_n where_o you_o must_v have_v a_o eternal_a be_v now_o compare_v these_o two_o world_n together_o upon_o all_o these_o account_n and_o judge_v rational_o which_o be_v most_o worthy_a of_o your_o conformity_n thus_o for_o the_o

ahaziah_n be_v it_o because_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o israel_n that_o thou_o send_v to_o baalzebub_a the_o god_n of_o ekron_n so_o you_o that_o call_v yourselves_o christian_n let_v i_o ask_v

they_o as_o they_o be_v of_o christ_n he_o call_v you_o out_o of_o the_o world_n and_o to_o be_v unlike_o it_o and_o to_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o it_o by_o way_n of_o conform_v in_o the_o

be_v christian_n indeed_o meet_v with_o so_o much_o trouble_v and_o opposition_n in_o and_o from_o the_o world_n the_o cause_n be_v nonconformity_n to_o the_o world_n the_o ground_n of_o the_o quarrel_n between_o the_o world_n and_o they_o be_v that_o they_o be_v unlike_o the_o world_n that_o they_o will_v not_o do_v as_o the_o most_o do_v that_o they_o will_v not_o do_v as_o their_o

the_o world_n and_o the_o man_n of_o it_o hate_v those_o that_o be_v true_o godly_a every_o thing_n love_v its_o like_a and_o the_o unlikeness_n of_o the_o saint_n to_o the_o world_n be_v the_o
