difficulty_n and_o hazard_n of_o that_o holy_a war_n and_o s._n paul_n apply_v the_o promise_n to_o all_o the_o faithful_a 13.5_o in_o any_o straits_n or_o distress_n of_o life_n as_o the_o lord_n

he_o will_v not_o fail_v thou_o nor_o forsake_v thou_o christ_n make_v a_o particular_a promise_n unto_o peter_n i_o have_v pray_v for_o thou_o that_o thy_o faith_n fail_v not_o 32_o and_o the_o

not_o anticipate_v nor_o perturb_v the_o order_n which_o god_n have_v put_v in_o his_o promise_n but_o wait_v upon_o he_o in_o his_o own_o way_n grace_n and_o glory_n will_v he_o give_v sin_n but_o

shall_v not_o depart_v from_o i_o but_o this_o perseverance_n be_v not_o so_o certain_a but_o that_o it_o admit_v of_o false_a slip_n and_o miscarriage_n therefore_o in_o that_o case_n he_o promise_v
