any_o time_n trouble_v in_o our_o conscience_n we_o present_o call_v some_o promise_n or_o other_o to_o mind_n in_o the_o scripture_n or_o think_v of_o some_o comfortable_a text_n and_o so_o slight_v

speak_v peace_n to_o we_o afterward_o by_o his_o spirit_n in_o the_o scripture_n apply_v some_o promise_n to_o we_o and_o have_v learned_a and_o know_v these_o thing_n we_o believe_v we_o can_v

enough_o in_o christ_n and_o for_o our_o sin_n they_o can_v separate_v we_o from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o our_o holiness_n or_o righteousness_n though_o we_o be_v never_o so_o strict_a commend_v we_o not_o to_o god_n for_o if_o we_o be_v elect_v our_o sin_n shall_v not_o destroy_v or_o damn_v we_o and_o if_o we_o be_v reprobate_v by_o god_n our_o righteousness_n or_o

we_o to_o be_v justify_v by_o he_o who_o work_v in_o we_o and_o not_o for_o our_o work_n be_v that_o which_o we_o look_v upon_o as_o legal_a and_o dangerous_a to_o be_v lead_v and_o guide_v and_o

care_v for_o nothing_o and_o be_v grow_v stranger_n to_o the_o world_n and_o have_v no_o fellowship_n with_o it_o but_o keep_v out_o of_o all_o its_o custom_n and_o way_n and_o fashion_n as_o if_o they_o be_v redeem_v out_o of_o it_o while_o they_o walk_v up_o and_o down_o in_o it_o but_o this_o way_n we_o like_v not_o but_o rather_o a_o zeal_n for_o outward_a ordinance_n and_o outward_a
