public_a faith_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n immortal_a faithful_a and_o omnipotent_a and_o there_o we_o may_v rest_v secure_a and_o no_o where_o else_o therefore_o by_o our_o faith_n we_o have_v

because_o the_o substance_n of_o this_o blessedness_n be_v moral_a righteousness_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a thing_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o blessedness_n whereto_o the_o accessary_n be_v

this_o inheritance_n for_o we_o and_o promise_v it_o unto_o we_o by_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n he_o will_v never_o have_v bid_v we_o to_o wait_v for_o it_o nor_o have_v give_v we_o his_o spirit_n

that_o which_o either_o be_v never_o offer_v or_o refuse_v by_o we_o when_o it_o be_v offer_v but_o now_o every_o faithful_a soul_n may_v just_o look_v for_o that_o which_o be_v their_o due_n from_o

heaven_n and_o earth_n may_v fail_v and_o shall_v fail_v but_o not_o the_o least_o title_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n shall_v ever_o fail_v god_n be_v faithful_a in_o promise_n and_o keep_v covenant_n for_o ever_o his_o word_n be_v a_o more_o sure_a word_n than_o the_o law_n of_o the_o mede_n and_o persian_n which_o be_v say_v not_o to_o alter_v though_o both_o their_o law_n and_o

can_v hinder_v assurance_n on_o god_n part_n but_o breach_n of_o faith_n on_o our_o part_n none_o therefore_o can_v fail_v of_o their_o hope_n but_o hypocrite_n because_o they_o be_v unfaithful_a in_o not_o keep_v the_o covenant_n make_v with_o god_n therefore_o their_o hope_n shall_v perish_v and_o their_o expectation_n shall_v be_v cut_v off_o as_o the_o spider_n web_n before_o he_o they_o be_v
