may_v be_v something_o in_o this_o as_o one_o reason_n of_o it_o namely_o the_o way_n of_o god_n dispensation_n which_o have_v be_v and_o it_o be_v to_o put_v death_n be_v upon_o his_o promise_n not_o only_o before_o the_o fulfil_a time_n of_o a_o promise_n come_v but_o even_o when_o the_o fulfil_a time_n be_v come_v and_o in_o the_o fulfil_a time_n god_n will_v put_v a_o death_n upon_o his_o promise_n though_o abraham_n have_v a_o bless_a promise_n make_v to_o he_o by_o god_n that_o he_o shall_v have_v seed_n and_o god_n tell_v he_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v in_o bondage_n four_o hundred_o

and_o yet_o without_o any_o that_o shall_v be_v the_o heir_n of_o the_o promise_n and_o sarah_n be_v old_a and_o her_o womb_n dead_a before_o the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o promise_n and_o after_o the_o

of_o the_o promise_n and_o must_v i_o go_v and_o offer_v he_o up_o where_o will_v god_n promise_v be_v here_o be_v a_o death_n upon_o a_o death_n upon_o it_o and_o after_o this_o isaac_n the_o son_n of_o the_o promise_n in_o who_o loin_n as_o i_o may_v say_v the_o promise_n run_v the_o promise_a seed_n be_v to_o come_v forth_o from_o he_o yet_o isaac_n after_o abraham_n have_v no_o seed_n a_o great_a while_n so_o that_o before_o the_o fulfil_a time_n of_o the_o promise_n come_v there_o be_v death_n upon_o death_n upon_o it_o yet_o notwithstanding_o when_o the_o time_n be_v come_v for_o the_o fulfil_n it_o when_o the_o lord_n be_v now_o give_v forth_o that_o that_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o abraham_n and_o when_o he_o have_v send_v moses_n into_o egypt_n to_o bring_v israel_n out_o yet_o then_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o very_a fulfil_a time_n bring_v death_n upon_o it_o when_o the_o lord_n have_v raise_v up_o some_o measure_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o people_n of_o god_n expect_v deliverance_n yet_o the_o bondage_n grow_v so_o great_a that_o their_o heart_n grow_v dead_a as_o to_o hope_v and_o they_o think_v they_o be_v further_o off_o than_o ever_o before_o and_o afterward_o when_o they_o think_v they_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v but_o to_o run_v to_o the_o land_n of_o caâ—aan_n no_o but_o there_o be_v great_a death_n in_o the_o way_n they_o must_v go_v through_o a_o sea_n and_o through_o a_o wilderness_n and_o this_o not_o all_o but_o they_o must_v wander_v forty_o year_n in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o there_o the_o whole_a generation_n that_o come_v out_o of_o egypt_n die_v what_o death_n be_v there_o upon_o the_o promise_n in_o the_o fulfil_a time_n so_o god_n make_v a_o promise_n to_o his_o people_n in_o jeremiah_n time_n that_o after_o 70_o year_n captivity_n in_o babylon_n they_o shall_v come_v to_o jerusalem_n again_o and_o that_o shall_v be_v build_v but_o when_o the_o fulfil_a time_n be_v come_v what_o death_n be_v put_v upon_o the_o promise_n so_o that_o for_o many_o year_n together_o the_o build_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o the_o temple_n be_v hinder_v i_o do_v urge_v this_o notion_n to_o this_o purpose_n that_o though_o the_o new_a testament_n administration_n be_v the_o administration_n in_o which_o the_o saint_n be_v to_o wait_v for_o the_o fulfil_n of_o this_o great_a promise_n yet_o in_o the_o fulfil_a time_n there_o may_v be_v very_o great_a death_n upon_o the_o promise_n and_o such_o as_o we_o may_v see_v very_o little_a of_o the_o spirit_n give_v forth_o and_o it_o may_v be_v for_o age_n and_o generation_n together_o as_o in_o some_o generation_n it_o have_v be_v but_o little_a of_o the_o spirit_n may_v appear_v second_o because_o although_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o great_a new_a testament_n promise_n that_o be_v make_v to_o those_o time_n yet_o the_o fulfil_n of_o this_o premise_v may_v not_o be_v alike_o to_o all_o but_o may_v be_v especial_o make_v good_a to_o some_o period_n of_o that_o time_n the_o promise_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o great_a old_a testament_n promise_n that_o which_o saint_n all_o along_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n wait_v for_o but_o that_o be_v not_o

little_a of_o the_o spirit_n though_o this_o be_v the_o great_a new_a testament_n promise_n it_o may_v be_v from_o saint_n darkness_n in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n saint_n go_v out_o of_o the_o way_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o that_o legality_n that_o be_v in_o and_o upon_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o saint_n as_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o great_a

such_o a_o remarkable_a way_n at_o such_o and_o such_o a_o time_n and_o thereupon_o he_o lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o his_o hope_n if_o you_o lay_v too_o much_o upon_o this_o your_o faith_n will_v be_v but_o upon_o a_o providence_n and_o this_o will_v not_o be_v a_o sure_a foundation_n there_o may_v be_v a_o great_a deceit_n in_o this_o for_o satan_n may_v give_v in_o a_o word_n as_o well_o as_o the_o lord_n a_o soul_n may_v take_v in_o a_o word_n from_o satan_n as_o well_o as_o from_o the_o lord_n himself_o beside_o a_o word_n may_v be_v give_v in_o of_o the_o lord_n too_o and_o yet_o this_o not_o a_o evidence_n of_o our_o eternal_a commition_n therefore_o when_o we_o conclude_v our_o eternal_a condition_n from_o the_o give_v in_o of_o a_o word_n we_o err_v in_o this_o for_o this_o
