say_v there_o be_v a_o expectation_n in_o this_o patience_n even_o as_o the_o hireling_n wait_v for_o the_o end_n of_o the_o day_n and_o the_o watchman_n watch_v for_o the_o morning_n so_o do_v the_o people_n of_o god_n wait_v for_o the_o promise_a redemption_n we_o through_o the_o spirit_n do_v wait_v for_o the_o hope_n of_o righteousness_n by_o faith_n for_o we_o be_v save_v by_o hope_n as_o

as_o your_o duty_n i_o say_v it_o be_v your_o interest_n to_o study_v the_o promise_n to_o study_v the_o prophecy_n and_o to_o study_v the_o time_n these_o three_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v study_v it_o be_v your_o interest_n as_o well_o as_o your_o duty_n to_o do_v it_o i_o know_v that_o you_o will_v grant_v the_o first_o that_o it_o be_v your_o interestto_n study_v the_o promise_n but_o alas_o this_o be_v a_o lame_a business_n the_o study_v of_o the_o promise_n if_o you_o do_v not_o study_v the_o prophecy_n and_o study_v the_o time_n for_o to_o have_v a_o promise_n that_o some_o time_n or_o other_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o new_a state_n of_o thing_n and_o not_o have_v the_o time_n discover_v to_o you_o this_o be_v but_o a_o languish_a tomfort_n alas_o say_v many_o it_o will_v not_o be_v in_o our_o day_n as_o that_o good_a man_n comfort_v himself_o that_o the_o evil_n threaten_v will_v not_o be_v in_o his_o day_n so_o patience_n be_v very_o lame_a upon_o this_o account_n because_o they_o know_v not_o whether_o it_o will_v be_v in_o their_o day_n or_o nor_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o so_o great_a slightness_n in_o this_o respect_n they_o leave_v these_o thing_n to_o other_o say_v they_o you_o have_v leisure_n you_o can_v study_v the_o time_n and_o the_o promise_n and_o so_o they_o take_v it_o upon_o the_o word_n of_o other_o man_n but_o we_o may_v speak_v long_o enough_o ere_o we_o can_v bear_v a_o solid_a ground_n of_o comfort_n into_o your_o heart_n if_o you_o have_v it_o only_o from_o our_o word_n unless_o as_o the_o samaritan_n say_v to_o the_o woman_n you_o

those_o obscure_a period_n that_o be_v deliver_v so_o dark_o in_o the_o revelation_n and_o other_o place_n let_v i_o tell_v you_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v free_a with_o you_o i_o know_v not_o whether_o

these_o heaven_n as_o they_o lie_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n so_o do_v they_o in_o the_o principle_n of_o regeneration_n of_o say_v and_o love_n as_o it_o be_v in_o
