our_o salvation_n by_o christ_n but_o salvation_n for_o so_o much_o as_o all_o our_o comfort_n stand_v in_o this_o that_o god_n who_o justify_v the_o ungodly_a have_v free_o give_v his_o son_n and_o in_o he_o be_v reconcile_v to_o we_o be_v his_o enemy_n and_o have_v by_o his_o gospel_n call_v we_o and_o by_o his_o spirit_n wrought_v faith_n in_o our_o heart_n to_o receive_v christ_n so_o give_v

evident_a that_o many_o trial_n of_o the_o carefull_a christian_n see_v their_o infirmity_n do_v most_o doubt_n whether_o they_o have_v faith_n who_o yet_o for_o the_o most_o part_n in_o time_n of_o

of_o their_o justification_n and_o in_o behold_v the_o effect_n justification_n through_o ignorance_n and_o fear_n judge_v amiss_o not_o see_v the_o true_a effect_n of_o faith_n in_o they_o be_v blind_v with_o their_o want_n 5._o this_o be_v find_v in_o many_o true_a christian_n that_o they_o oft_o doubt_v of_o their_o salvation_n and_o fear_v they_o be_v not_o god_n child_n because_o they_o see_v such_o sin_n and_o want_n in_o themselves_o and_o hereupon_o be_v oft_o move_v to_o great_a care_n of_o a_o holy_a life_n think_v that_o otherways_o life_n they_o may_v not_o believe_v and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n that_o if_o they_o see_v more_o mortification_n of_o their_o corruption_n and_o more_o strength_n to_o good_a duty_n that_o they_o may_v bold_o believe_v wherein_o they_o pitiful_o deceive_v themselves_o many_o way_n 1._o that_o they_o often_o obtain_v not_o their_o desire_n in_o mortification_n 2._o that_o if_o they_o by_o this_o mean_n prick_v themselves_o to_o more_o care_n for_o a_o season_n yet_o so_o soon_o as_o their_o fear_n be_v slack_v their_o care_n be_v end_v 3._o that_o if_o their_o care_n shall_v continue_v yet_o this_o be_v not_o that_o which_o can_v either_o cause_n they_o first_o to_o believe_v or_o else_o any_o way_n increase_v their_o faith_n only_o this_o can_v more_o certain_o prove_v that_o they_o have_v and_o do_v indeed_o believe_v and_o so_o may_v comfort_v they_o for_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o can_v beget_v or_o increase_v faith_n but_o god_n promise_n and_o seal_v thereof_o true_o apply_v they_o therefore_o who_o doubt_v do_v thus_o think_v to_o increase_v faith_n by_o lead_v a_o better_a life_n do_v take_v a_o wrong_a course_n and_o plain_o show_v that_o in_o their_o holy_a life_n they_o seek_v themselves_o and_o not_o the_o lord_n and_o be_v not_o move_v thereto_o by_o the_o true_a love_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o chief_a mother_n of_o true_a obedience_n whereas_o they_o ought_v rather_o have_v good_a cause_n to_o doubt_v whether_o they_o have_v sound_o believe_v see_v they_o find_v in_o themselves_o no_o comfortable_a fruit_n of_o their_o faith_n to_o labour_v more_o steadfast_o to_o believe_v that_o so_o their_o faith_n as_o fire_n increase_v by_o the_o heat_n of_o it_o may_v send_v forth_o more_o fervent_a effect_n of_o love_n to_o god_n and_o obedience_n which_o shall_v then_o effectual_o comfort_v they_o see_v such_o fruit_n of_o such_o a_o root_n 6._o in_o the_o deep_a thought_n of_o our_o salvation_n faith_n this_o oft_o rise_v up_o to_o weaken_v our_o faith_n that_o

and_o to_o leave_v the_o other_o to_o themselves_o what_o warrant_v we_o have_v to_o believe_v that_o we_o be_v of_o they_o to_o who_o god_n have_v determine_v to_o give_v his_o grace_n and_o who_o indeed_o shall_v receive_v it_o and_o not_o of_o those_o who_o herein_o deep_o deceive_v themselves_o whereunto_o the_o thereof_o sound_a answer_n be_v this_o that_o the_o secret_a determination_n
