what_o nature_n soever_o to_o think_v otherwise_o be_v to_o limit_v the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n trust_v perfect_o therefore_o faith_n it_o be_v not_o a_o little_a that_o will_v serve_v the_o turn_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 2_o pet._n 3._o ult._n grow_v in_o grace_n there_o be_v need_n of_o it_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o as_o you_o wade_v further_o in_o the_o profession_n of_o christianity_n so_o you_o shall_v have_v need_n of_o more_o strength_n you_o shall_v have_v great_a employment_n therefore_o you_o have_v more_o need_n of_o growth_n to_o go_v forward_o and_o persevere_v again_o you_o shall_v meet_v with_o great_a temptation_n and_o assault_n if_o you_o be_v not_o more_o strong_a then_o at_o the_o first_o you_o be_v not_o able_a to_o resist_v again_o if_o you_o grow_v in_o faith_n you_o shall_v grow_v likewise_o in_o joy_n and_o that_o be_v a_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v continual_a use_n of_o that_o be_v of_o only_a use_n to_o comfort_n and_o strengthen_v we_o to_o make_v we_o abound_v in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o help_v we_o to_o go_v through_o all_o variety_n of_o condition_n that_o enable_v we_o to_o abound_v and_o to_o want_v to_o pass_v through_o good_a report_n and_o evil_a report_n to_o suffer_v and_o endure_v persecution_n now_o the_o more_o you_o grow_v in_o faith_n the_o more_o you_o grow_v in_o joy_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v rom._n 15.13_o the_o god_n of_o peace_n fulfil_v you_o with_o all_o joy_n by_o believe_v so_o that_o the_o more_o we_o believe_v the_o more_o joy_n the_o more_o consolation_n we_o have_v again_o the_o more_o you_o grow_v in_o faith_n the_o more_o you_o shall_v gain_v the_o favour_n of_o god_n the_o more_o you_o shall_v win_v his_o love_n there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o world_n do_v so_o much_o win_v the_o favour_n of_o god_n as_o a_o great_a degree_n of_o faith_n and_o therefore_o though_o thou_o may_v be_v save_v with_o a_o less_o degree_n yet_o that_o thou_o may_v be_v in_o a_o great_a degree_n of_o favour_n seek_v more_o faith_n and_o this_o though_o it_o be_v reckon_v a_o small_a matter_n to_o have_v a_o great_a degree_n of_o god_n favour_n yet_o it_o be_v the_o great_a dignity_n in_o the_o world_n look_v upon_o all_o the_o difference_n of_o man_n it_o be_v their_o difference_n in_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n that_o make_v they_o so_o why_o be_v moses_n a_o man_n above_o all_o the_o rest_n say_v god_n i_o will_v have_v compassion_n upon_o who_o i_o will_v have_v compassion_n and_o i_o will_v show_v mercy_n to_o who_o i_o will_v show_v mercy_n i_o have_v choose_v moses_n look_v to_o what_o difference_n of_o man_n you_o will_v look_v into_o what_o estate_n what_o condition_n thou_o will_v have_v either_o thy_o soul_n or_o thy_o body_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v it_o be_v by_o the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n iesus_n that_o all_o thy_o comfort_n and_o consolation_n increase_v what_o shall_v make_v i_o grow_v in_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n i_o answer_v there_o be_v nothing_o that_o cause_v god_n to_o set_v so_o much_o by_o we_o as_o faith_n the_o woman_n of_o canaan_n see_v what_o cause_n christ_n have_v to_o give_v she_o such_o a_o great_a commendation_n great_a be_v thy_o faith_n and_o because_o her_o faith_n be_v great_a therefore_o he_o set_v she_o at_o so_o high_a a_o rate_n so_o the_o centurion_n say_v christ_n i_o have_v not_o find_v so_o great_a faith_n in_o israel_n and_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o he_o set_v so_o great_a a_o price_n upon_o so_o jacob_n when_o he_o get_v the_o name_n of_o israel_n when_o he_o prevail_v with_o god_n certain_o it_o be_v the_o great_a blessing_n that_o ever_o he_o have_v why_o be_v that_o because_o he_o show_v the_o great_a faith_n that_o ever_o he_o do_v it_o be_v a_o strong_a faith_n that_o prevail_v with_o god_n and_o what_o set_v he_o at_o so_o high_a a_o rate_n in_o god_n book_n it_o be_v the_o faith_n he_o have_v in_o god_n therefore_o he_o be_v remember_v in_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o god_n for_o his_o faith_n therefore_o the_o more_o faith_n you_o have_v the_o more_o god_n prize_v you_o it_o be_v it_o that_o win_v his_o love_n i_o can_v stand_v upon_o the_o argument_n why_o we_o shall_v grow_v in_o faith_n they_o be_v many_o the_o more_o faith_n we_o have_v the_o more_o powerful_a be_v our_o prayer_n in_o prevail_a with_o god_n for_o faith_n give_v strength_n to_o they_o again_o the_o more_o faith_n you_o have_v the_o more_o you_o bring_v glory_n to_o god_n if_o there_o be_v much_o faith_n there_o will_v be_v much_o fruit_n it_o be_v the_o root_n of_o all_o grace_n as_o john_n 15.8_o herein_o be_v my_o father_n glorify_v that_o you_o bring_v forth_o much_o fruit_n get_v much_o faith_n then_o if_o you_o will_v have_v much_o fruit_n that_o you_o may_v bring_v glory_n to_o god_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v if_o a_o man_n have_v but_o some_o faith_n he_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n yet_o there_o shall_v be_v something_o

may_v be_v many_o delusion_n in_o this_o kind_n many_o hypocrite_n may_v have_v great_a rapture_n they_o may_v have_v great_a joy_n as_o if_o they_o be_v lift_v up_o into_o the_o three_o heaven_n they_o may_v have_v a_o great_a and_o strong_a persuasion_n that_o their_o estate_n be_v good_a satan_n be_v very_o apt_a to_o delude_v we_o in_o this_o kind_n to_o put_v a_o counterfeit_n upon_o we_o in_o stead_n of_o true_a faith_n therefore_o we_o will_v not_o content_v ourselves_o with_o this_o but_o give_v other_o mark_n that_o will_v not_o deceive_v at_o this_o time_n you_o be_v to_o consider_v you_o that_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n be_v it_o not_o a_o main_a thing_n to_o consider_v whether_o you_o have_v faith_n or_o no_o what_o do_v you_o here_o else_o you_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o christ_n you_o have_v no_o interest_n in_o he_o and_o if_o you_o have_v no_o interest_n in_o he_o what_o do_v you_o with_o the_o element_n which_o represent_v his_o body_n and_o his_o blood_n and_o therefore_o you_o have_v cause_n to_o attend_v to_o it_o first_o therefore_o if_o thou_o find_v such_o a_o work_n in_o thy_o heart_n for_o if_o thou_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o work_n thou_o need_v not_o examine_v further_o thou_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o thou_o have_v not_o faith_n but_o if_o thou_o have_v such_o a_o work_n if_o thou_o will_v know_v whether_o it_o be_v real_o and_o true_o or_o whether_o it_o be_v a_o fancy_n or_o delusion_n consider_v first_o heart_n if_o it_o be_v true_a it_o purify_v the_o heart_n in_o act_n 15.9_o say_v the_o apostle_n peter_n there_o god_n have_v put_v no_o difference_n between_o we_o and_o they_o 15.9_o after_o that_o by_o faith_n he_o have_v purify_v their_o heart_n so_o in_o act_n 26.18_o 26.18_o and_o thou_o shall_v preach_v forgiveness_n of_o sin_n to_o those_o that_o be_v sanctify_v by_o faith_n so_o that_o this_o you_o must_v take_v as_o a_o sure_a rule_n if_o thy_o faith_n be_v true_a it_o purify_v thy_o heart_n it_o sanctify_v thou_o and_o therefore_o you_o see_v why_o faith_n and_o repentance_n be_v always_o put_v together_o repent_v and_o believe_v for_o they_o be_v never_o disjoin_v if_o thou_o find_v the_o work_n of_o repentance_n be_v not_o wrought_v thorough_o &_o sound_o in_o thou_o repentance_n if_o thou_o find_v thy_o heart_n not_o purify_v if_o thou_o be_v not_o sanctify_v if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o sanctify_a disposition_n in_o thou_o be_v sure_a it_o be_v a_o delusion_n it_o be_v not_o faith_n or_o if_o faith_n be_v as_o you_o hear_v heretofore_o a_o take_v of_o christ_n not_o as_o a_o saviour_n only_o be_v but_o as_o a_o priest_n and_o not_o as_o a_o priest_n only_o but_o as_o a_o king_n too_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o there_o must_v be_v real_a obedience_n or_o else_o it_o be_v not_o faith_n obedience_n thou_o have_v not_o take_v he_o if_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o a_o mere_a assent_n as_o the_o papist_n affirm_v in_o another_o case_n for_o faith_n be_v a_o take_n of_o christ_n and_o a_o give_v of_o ourselves_o to_o he_o again_o so_o that_o there_o be_v a_o match_n there_o be_v a_o bargain_n a_o covenant_n between_o we_o as_o he_o say_v in_o
