A76707	The copy of the covenant of grace With a true discovery of several false pretenders to that eternal inheritance, and of the right heir thereunto. Together with such safe instructions as will inable him to clear his title, and to make it unquestionable. Exactly evidenced by many perspicuous and unconstrained testimonies of scripture. Penned, and published upon mature deliberation, and good advise. / By Robert Bidwel, a servant, and minister of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

contract_v fix_a and_o confirm_v by_o his_o affection_n and_o their_o lively_a faith_n second_o the_o lord_n require_v faith_n that_o so_o this_o gift_n of_o he_o may_v be_v beneficial_a to_o the_o whole_a world_n in_o all_o place_n and_o at_o all_o time_n indifferent_o for_o be_v christ_n to_o be_v receive_v any_o other_o way_n then_o by_o faith_n all_o man_n can_v not_o have_v be_v capable_a

shall_v say_v in_o his_o heart_n who_o shall_v ascend_v into_o heaven_n that_o be_v to_o bring_v down_o christ_n from_o above_o or_o who_o shall_v descend_v into_o the_o deep_a that_o be_v to_o
