word_n therefore_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o as_o all_o good_a thing_n be_v come_v upon_o you_o which_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n promise_v you_o so_o shall_v the_o lord_n bring_v upon_o you_o all_o evil_a thing_n until_o be_v have_v destroy_v you_o from_o off_o this_o good_a land_n which_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n have_v give_v you_o the_o like_a attestation_n here_o of_o give_v

not_o fail_v one_o word_n of_o all_o his_o good_a promise_n which_o he_o promise_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n his_o 8.56_o his_o 1_o kin._n 8.56_o servant_n another_o reason_n that_o shall_v urge_v all_o man_n to_o believe_v this_o word_n be_v this_o because_o he_o that_o believe_v it_o not_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n so_o much_o as_o in_o he_o lie_v in_o that_o hereby_o he_o deni_v in_o his_o heart_n the_o truth_n of_o that_o which_o god_n have_v speak_v so_o say_v s._n john_n he_o that_o believe_v not_o god_n have_v make_v he_o a_o liar_n because_o he_o believe_v not_o the_o record_n that_o god_n give_v of_o his_o 5.10_o his_o 1_o john_n 5.10_o son_n and_o this_o be_v a_o grievous_a sin_n by_o god_n own_o testimony_n the_o house_n of_o israel_n and_o the_o house_n of_o

therefore_o take_v heed_n how_o they_o remain_v incredulous_a of_o this_o word_n or_o any_o part_n of_o it_o see_v it_o be_v a_o sin_n so_o dishonourable_a and_o offensive_a to_o almighty_a god_n how_o weak_o then_o do_v those_o man_n project_n for_o themselves_o who_o believe_v so_o much_o of_o this_o word_n as_o they_o like_v so_o much_o as_o be_v please_v and_o plausible_a to_o their_o carnal_a desire_n and_o fleshly_a wisdom_n namely_o all_o the_o gracious_a promise_n of_o mercy_n and_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n but_o as_o for_o the_o condition_n of_o these_o promise_n which_o be_v upon_o condition_n of_o repentance_n and_o faith_n in_o christ_n and_o new_a obedience_n and_o the_o judgement_n threaten_v against_o impenitent_a sinner_n wherein_o the_o scripture_n be_v very_o

by_o consequence_n condemn_v themselves_o for_o their_o apprehension_n and_o belief_n of_o the_o promise_n of_o mercy_n be_v a_o silent_a confession_n of_o their_o credence_n that_o scripture_n be_v

must_v necessary_o speak_v truth_n in_o one_o part_n as_o well_o as_o another_o three_o see_v we_o be_v sure_o that_o scripture_n be_v god_n word_n it_o be_v wisdom_n for_o all_o person_n to_o join_v
