peace_n of_o your_o soul_n only_o until_o you_o come_v at_o some_o full_a fountain_n of_o these_o water_n where_o you_o may_v quench_v your_o thirst_n thorough_o i_o shall_v be_v willing_a to_o give_v you_o a_o taste_n of_o one_o main_a difference_n between_o that_o kind_n of_o faith_n and_o dependence_n on_o god_n which_o will_v open_v the_o door_n and_o lead_v you_o into_o this_o bless_a

raise_v in_o the_o soul_n by_o the_o help_n or_o mean_n of_o that_o ignorance_n of_o god_n or_o of_o the_o mind_n and_o counsel_n of_o god_n which_o be_v within_o a_o man_n be_v a_o dependence_n which_o god_n will_v reject_v and_o with_o which_o the_o creature_n may_v perish_v as_o on_o the_o contrary_a that_o which_o either_o spring_n out_o of_o a_o true_a light_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o

the_o almighty_a to_o his_o creature_n and_o carry_v heaven_n and_o salvation_n before_o it_o this_o difference_n be_v build_v upon_o the_o sure_a foundation_n of_o the_o scripture_n this_o be_v life_n eternal_a say_v our_o saviour_n to_o his_o father_n in_o that_o solemn_a prayer_n of_o he_o a_o little_a before_o his_o death_n joh._n 17._o 3._o that_o they_o know_v thou_o the_o only_a true_a

without_o the_o other_o be_v a_o unquestionable_a mean_n of_o eternal_a life_n it_o must_v be_v this_o mean_n thus_o as_o it_o produce_v and_o work_v a_o true_a and_o live_a faith_n in_o man_n according_a to_o that_o which_o david_n affirm_v psal_n 9_o 10._o they_o that_o know_v thy_o name_n will_v trust_v in_o thou_o because_o without_o such_o a_o faith_n or_o trust_v in_o god_n eternal_a

speak_v of_o psal_n 18._o who_o be_v there_o reject_v in_o their_o prayer_n and_o consequent_o in_o their_o dependence_n such_o as_o it_o be_v on_o god_n be_v man_n destitute_a of_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o god_n for_o they_o be_v say_v verse_n 40._o to_o have_v hate_v david_n a_o dear_a child_n and_o faithful_a servant_n of_o god_n now_o the_o scripture_n teach_v express_o that_o he_o that_o hate_v his_o brother_n be_v in_o darkness_n and_o walk_v in_o darkness_n 1_o joh._n 2._o 11._o that_o be_v be_v in_o a_o worse_a condition_n than_o he_o think_v or_o be_v aware_a of_o and_o know_v not_o how_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n to_o perform_v any_o work_n or_o service_n in_o a_o holy_a and_o right_a manner_n as_o he_o ought_v and_o again_o 1_o joh._n 4._o 8._o he_o that_o love_v not_o know_v not_o god_n for_o god_n be_v love_n that_o be_v god_n true_o know_v always_o fill_v the_o heart_n with_o love_n towards_o man_n so_o for_o those_o mat._n 7._o who_o soul_n miscarry_v under_o a_o kind_n of_o hope_n or_o trust_v and_o rely_v upon_o god_n or_o christ_n as_o apparent_a it_o be_v that_o neither_o have_v these_o any_o right_a knowledge_n nor_o due_a apprehension_n of_o either_o because_o it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o be_v worker_n of_o iniquity_n verse_n 23._o and_o that_o they_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o christ_n and_o do_v they_o not_o verse_n 26._o that_o be_v they_o live_v in_o know_a sin_n now_o concern_v such_o the_o scripture_n also_o speak_v plain_o that_o whosoever_o sin_v willing_o and_o against_o light_n and_o knowledge_n have_v not_o see_v he_o that_o be_v god_n neither_o have_v know_v he_o that_o be_v have_v not_o have_v so_o much_o as_o a_o clear_a sight_n or_o interview_n of_o he_o much_o less_o any_o settle_a experience_a or_o more_o profound_a knowledge_n of_o he_o the_o sight_n of_o a_o man_n we_o know_v be_v but_o the_o first_o degree_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o he_o 26._o so_o that_o the_o rule_n be_v universal_o true_a that_o that_o faith_n or_o dependence_n on_o god_n which_o either_o arise_v out_o of_o a_o true_a knowledge_n of_o he_o or_o be_v accompany_v with_o such_o knowledge_n in_o its_o arise_v always_o prosper_v &_o triumph_v in_o its_o acceptation_n as_o on_o the_o contrary_a when_o man_n will_v claim_v friendship_n and_o acquaintance_n with_o god_n and_o will_v needs_o depend_v upon_o he_o for_o favour_n out_o of_o ignorant_a and_o fond_a imagination_n and_o persuasion_n of_o he_o such_o claim_n and_o dependence_n be_v still_o reject_v and_o cast_v out_o by_o he_o the_o reason_n hereof_o may_v well_o be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n deliver_v and_o lay_v down_o rom._n 11._o 16._o as_o a_o ground_n or_o principle_n upon_o which_o god_n build_v many_o other_o of_o the_o way_n of_o his_o providence_n and_o dispensation_n in_o the_o world_n if_o the_o root_n be_v holy_a so_o be_v the_o branch_n as_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n job_n reason_v and_o demand_v who_o can_v bring_v a_o clean_a thing_n out_o of_o a_o unclean_a job_n 14._o so_o if_o the_o root_n of_o our_o dependence_n on_o god_n be_v holy_a that_o be_v if_o this_o dependence_n spring_v and_o shoot_v as_o it_o be_v out_o of_o righteous_a thought_n and_o apprehension_n of_o god_n and_o of_o christ_n it_o can_v but_o be_v holy_a &_o so_o accept_v with_o he_o as_o on_o the_o contrary_a if_o it_o be_v any_o common_a unclean_a or_o pollute_a conceit_n or_o notion_n of_o god_n that_o give_v the_o raise_v and_o advantage_n to_o our_o trust_n or_o be_v the_o basis_n and_o bottom_n of_o our_o dependence_n on_o he_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n if_o such_o trust_n or_o dependence_n be_v profane_v by_o he_o and_o reject_v with_o disdain_n and_o indignation_n as_o for_o example_n the_o wicked_a of_o who_o david_n speak_v psal_n 50._o 16._o be_v say_v verse_n 21._o to_o have_v this_o conceit_n or_o thought_n of_o god_n that_o he_o be_v altogether_o such_o a_o one_o as_o himself_o that_o be_v that_o he_o like_v and_o approve_v those_o way_n and_o practice_n of_o sin_n wherein_o he_o be_v engage_v and_o harden_v as_o well_o as_o himself_o do_v now_o if_o such_o a_o thought_n or_o opinion_n of_o god_n as_o
