our_o church_n speak_v 12._o spring_v out_o necessary_o of_o a_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n in_o so_o much_o that_o a_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n may_v be_v know_v by_o they_o as_o a_o tree_n

which_o be_v to_o bring_v down_o all_o faith_n to_o be_v a_o mere_a creature_n of_o reason_n to_o be_v no_o long_o that_o which_o the_o school_n call_v a_o infuse_a habit_n or_o the_o inspiration_n of_o god_n but_o only_o a_o bare_a rational_a belief_n upon_o divine_a testimony_n now_o as_o to_o his_o notion_n of_o faith_n its_o be_v a_o branch_n of_o justice_n and_o that_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n we_o be_v teach_v to_o believe_v god_n upon_o his_o testimony_n this_o be_v in_o some_o measure_n most_o certain_o true_a as_o appear_v by_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o heathen_n

natural_a religion_n do_v believe_v any_o thing_n upon_o god_n testimony_n our_o author_n may_v if_o he_o please_v call_v this_o faith_n but_o theological_a faith_n or_o faith_n under_o the_o gospel_n be_v quite_o of_o another_o kind_n this_o be_v not_o only_o a_o assent_n of_o the_o understanding_n but_o a_o divine_a grace_n or_o habit_n infuse_v though_o our_o author_n will_v have_v they_o the_o

know_v not_o how_o some_o man_n may_v abuse_v this_o doctrine_n by_o talk_v so_o much_o of_o and_o infuse_v such_o notion_n of_o christ_n impute_a righteousness_n into_o their_o disciple_n as_o to_o
