to_o you_o therefore_o obey_v he_o in_o believe_v or_o upon_o the_o same_o reason_n cast_v of_o all_o religion_n and_o disobey_v he_o in_o every_o other_o thing_n but_o if_o you_o fear_v to_o do_v

if_o you_o say_v you_o see_v you_o see_v your_o misery_n enough_o in_o unbelief_n but_o you_o want_v boldness_n to_o believe_v that_o you_o think_v that_o there_o be_v no_o proportion_n between_o

will_v but_o then_o consider_v that_o the_o thing_n wherein_o god_n use_v man_n in_o the_o way_n to_o salvation_n be_v indeed_o nothing_o or_o as_o nothing_o by_o the_o foolishness_n that_o be_v by_o

to_o he_o and_o though_o our_o reward_n be_v heaven_n yet_o our_o merit_n be_v nothing_o just_o nothing_o and_o therefore_o if_o faith_n in_o respect_n of_o its_o own_o internal_a value_n or_o as_o a_o grace_n in_o this_o case_n be_v any_o thing_n we_o shall_v never_o be_v save_v by_o it_o but_o now_o our_o comfort_n and_o assurance_n be_v that_o it_o be_v nothing_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a though_o there_o be_v no_o proportion_n between_o sin_n and_o faith_n yet_o there_o be_v a_o proportion_n between_o sin_n and_o christ_n or_o if_o you_o will_v have_v i_o speak_v the_o truth_n there_o be_v no_o proportion_n in_o this_o regard_n christ_n dye_v christ_n suffering_n make_v sin_n nothing_o so_o that_o that_o which_o hold_v the_o great_a proportion_n before_o god_n before_o and_o be_v

about_o which_o our_o hope_n be_v conversant_a and_o the_o proportion_n lie_v thus_o we_o hope_v say_v he_o ver_fw-la 2._o when_o he_o shall_v appear_v to_o be_v like_o he_o for_o we_o shall_v see_v

you_o must_v be_v like_o he_o here_o and_o your_o hope_n for_o the_o one_o must_v help_v you_o to_o the_o other_o now_o as_o in_o heaven_n he_o be_v glorious_a so_o here_o he_o be_v pure_a you_o be_v
