he_o just_o as_o the_o load_n stone_n fetch_v in_o the_o iron_n and_o call_v it_o to_o itself_o and_o so_o when_o christ_n come_v near_o to_o the_o soul_n he_o draw_v it_o near_o to_o himself_o etc._n

lord_n jesus_n christ_n from_o what_o i_o have_v discourse_v in_o the_o last_o sermon_n that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n in_o such_o a_o sense_n only_o as_o that_o nothing_o can_v be_v attribute_v to_o faith_n but_o only_o to_o christ_n two_o objection_n may_v arise_v which_o i_o will_v answer_v before_o i_o pass_v on_o to_o the_o main_a point_n i_o now_o intend_v object_n 1._o what_o then_o be_v it_o may_v it_o be_v say_v in_o faith_n upon_o which_o justification_n be_v attribute_v to_o faith_n rather_o than_o to_o any_o other_o grace_n answ_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v like_o take_v possession_n the_o have_a livery_n and_o seize_v in_o a_o estate_n become_v we_o or_o like_o the_o consent_n of_o a_o mean_a person_n in_o marriage_n to_o a_o prince_n or_o indeed_o to_o speak_v yet_o more_o plain_a to_o our_o apprehension_n if_o any_o one_o will_v give_v we_o a_o gift_n before_o we_o come_v to_o be_v real_o invest_v in_o that_o gift_n we_o must_v take_v it_o and_o have_v it_o in_o possession_n and_o we_o have_v not_o a_o true_a title_n to_o it_o else_o though_o it_o do_v not_o depend_v upon_o our_o take_n but_o it_o be_v only_o a_o consummative_a and_o perfect_a thing_n that_o we_o take_v it_o into_o our_o possession_n we_o accept_v it_o from_o the_o giver_n as_o his_o gift_n and_o we_o take_v it_o into_o possession_n as_o our_o own_o and_o thus_o i_o say_v it_o be_v and_o that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n and_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o except_o any_o one_o shall_v show_v i_o wherein_o i_o be_o in_o a_o mistake_n in_o thus_o say_v i_o shall_v conclude_v it_o to_o be_v the_o very_a sense_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o all_o those_o expression_n that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n and_o live_v by_o faith_n these_o thing_n i_o say_v show_v to_o we_o the_o worthlessness_n of_o faith_n in_o itself_o and_o yet_o that_o it_o be_v consummative_a and_o a_o consummation_n of_o our_o title_n to_o christ_n and_o to_o his_o righteousness_n i_o will_v only_o first_o answer_n one_o more_o seem_v great_a objection_n against_o this_o representation_n of_o faith_n i_o have_v give_v as_o if_o it_o be_v only_o the_o imprint_v of_o christ_n gift_n of_o himself_o and_o his_o righteousness_n to_o the_o soul_n why_o be_v it_o then_o so_o often_o say_v repent_v and_o believe_v the_o gospel_n and_o whoever_o believe_v in_o he_o etc._n etc._n and_o we_o be_v call_v on_o as_o if_o it_o be_v our_o act_n to_o believe_v now_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v true_a we_o be_v so_o though_o i_o be_o full_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n of_o that_o judgement_n that_o i_o have_v declare_v to_o you_o concern_v the_o nature_n of_o faith_n and_o that_o it_o be_v christ_n imprint_v his_o gift_n the_o gift_n of_o his_o righteousness_n and_o of_o himself_o upon_o we_o and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o i_o think_v myself_o bind_v in_o all_o the_o discourse_n of_o this_o grace_n of_o faith_n to_o move_v you_o to_o persuade_v you_o to_o exhort_v you_o to_o receive_v to_o press_v you_o to_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n because_o this_o be_v the_o rational_a way_n that_o god_n do_v deal_v with_o those_o as_o i_o have_v say_v he_o give_v understanding_n and_o rationality_n to_o and_o because_o this_o be_v that_o ordinance_n of_o god_n and_o for_o great_a and_o wise_a reason_n both_o to_o his_o servant_n who_o he_o draw_v thus_o to_o believe_v by_o the_o obedience_n 〈◊〉_d faith_n to_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o in_o regard_n of_o those_o that_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o he_o may_v justify_v and_o vindicate_v himself_o that_o he_o have_v go_v that_o way_n which_o be_v proper_a unto_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n he_o have_v draw_v with_o the_o cord_n of_o a_o man_n and_o with_o the_o band_n of_o his_o love_n in_o offer_v christ_n to_o they_o i_o now_o come_v to_o what_o i_o propose_v in_o the_o next_o place_n to_o show_v you_o the_o great_a assu●…nce_n of_o faith_n the_o assurance_n of_o it_o from_o these_o word_n of_o our_o lord_n they_o have_v know_v they_o have_v know_v and_o they_o have_v sure_o know_v and_o yet_o whe●_n it_o come_v to_o be_v explain_v what_o this_o knowledge_n be_v it_o come_v to_o this_o it_o be_v believe_v for_o pray_v observe_v the_o course_n of_o the_o word_n jo._n 17._o 7._o they_o have_v know_v to_o know_v be_v of_o great_a certainty_n and_o of_o great_a assurance_n and_o again_o in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o verese_n they_o have_v know_v sure_o that_o i_o come_v out_o from_o thou_o and_o they_o have_v believe_v that_o thou_o do_v send_v i_o they_o have_v know_v sure_o and_o yet_o when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o issue_n they_o have_v believe_v therefore_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v i_o say_v to_o make_v out_o to_o you_o the_o great_a assurance_n of_o faith_n and_o i_o shall_v propose_v these_o four_o kind_n of_o assurance_n that_o faith_n have_v and_o there_o be_v scripture_n very_o full_a for_o each_o of_o they_o i_o will_v lay_v they_o first_o before_o you_o together_o the_o first_o assurance_n of_o faith_n be_v the_o assurance_n of_o understanding_n so_o you_o find_v col._n 2._o 2._o that_o their_o heart_n may_v be_v comfort_v be_v knit_v together_o in_o love_n and_o unto_o all_o riches_n of_o the_o full_a assurance_n of_o understanding_n in_o the_o acknowledgement_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o christ_n there_o be_v the_o first_o assurance_n of_o faith_n the_o assurance_n of_o understanding_n when_o all_o the_o great_a truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o man_n be_v ready_a to_o say_v how_o do_v you_o prove_v they_o how_o will_v you_o make_v they_o out_o either_o by_o sense_n or_o by_o reason_n how_o shall_v we_o know_v that_o these_o thing_n be_v indeed_o true_a why_o now_o when_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n do_v fix_v these_o truth_n upon_o soul_n they_o have_v riches_n of_o the_o full_a assurance_n of_o understanding_n the_o second_o full_a assurance_n of_o faith_n it_o be_v in_o that_o great_a point_n of_o pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o peace_n of_o conscience_n by_o jesus_n christ_n for_o if_o a_o man_n come_v and_o say_v to_o another_o as_o you_o know_v man_n be_v ready_a to_o do_v you_o talk_v at_o a_o strange_a rate_n do_v you_o know_v that_o your_o sin_n be_v pardon_v do_v you_o know_v that_o god_n and_o christ_n have_v do_v this_o and_o that_o you_o shall_v be_v save_v from_o wrath_n for_o ever_o observe_v now_o what_o the_o apostle_n say_v to_o this_o in_o heb._n 10._o 22._o let_v we_o draw_v near_o with_o a_o true_a heart_n you_o know_v it_o be_v a_o phrase_n in_o our_o english_a such_o a_o man_n when_o we_o do_v speak_v of_o he_o as_o fearful_a or_o a_o person_n of_o no_o valour_n we_o say_v he_o be_v a_o false-hearted_a man_n and_o that_o man_n that_o be_v resolve_v and_o valiant_a and_o great_a in_o prowess_n we_o say_v he_o be_v a_o man_n of_o a_o true_a heart_n of_o a_o true_a valour_n now_o whereas_o some_o be_v apt_a to_o think_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v stand_v tremble_v and_o doubt_v and_o say_v i_o do_v know_v whether_o my_o sin_n be_v pardon_v or_o not_o i_o dare_v not_o be_v so_o bold_a or_o presumptuous_a as_o once_o to_o say_v i_o be_o sure_a that_o i_o be_o free_v from_o wrath_n to_o come_v why_o now_o say_v the_o apostle_n let_v we_o draw_v near_o with_o a_o true_a heart_n have_v our_o heart_n sprinkle_v from_o a_o evil_a conscience_n and_o our_o body_n wash_v with_o pure_a water_n so_o here_o be_v a_o second_o great_a assurance_n of_o faith_n a_o three_o assurance_n of_o faith_n be_v in_o this_o o_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o i_o for_o ever_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o i_o when_o i_o die_v where_o will_v be_v my_o dwell_n where_o will_v be_v my_o reception_n my_o receptacle_n for_o ever_o when_o i_o go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n can_v i_o hope_v for_o such_o a_o state_n as_o the_o scripture_n describe_v heaven_n to_o be_v can_v i_o bear_v up_o in_o those_o hope_n why_o then_o consider_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v heb._n 6._o latter_a part_n of_o the_o 11_o ver_fw-la we_o desire_n that_o every_o one_o of_o you_o do_v show_v the_o same_o diligence_n to_o the_o full_a assurance_n of_o hope_n unto_o the_o end_n so_o here_o you_o see_v be_v another_o assurance_n the_o

that_o point_n of_o pardon_n of_o sin_n peace_n of_o conscience_n and_o deliverance_n from_o wrath_n to_o come_v but_o as_o i_o say_v before_o take_v any_o of_o the_o great_a truth_n of_o scripture_n and_o they_o be_v never_o separate_v from_o that_o justify_n faith_n all_o the_o action_n of_o creation_n and_o government_n of_o providence_n be_v never_o separate_v from_o the_o divine_a be_v the_o father_n word_n and_o spirit_n creation_n and_o providence_n you_o know_v be_v attribute_v to_o they_o all_o and_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o this_o may_v much_o help_v your_o thought_n because_o man_n discourse_v promiscuous_o as_o if_o we_o be_v as_o well_o justify_v by_o love_n to_o christ_n and_o by_o mortify_v a_o lust_n as_o by_o take_v hold_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n and_o ransom_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o as_o if_o one_o truth_n be_v as_o essential_a to_o justify_v faith_n as_o another_o now_o i_o acknowledge_v they_o be_v never_o separate_v to_o take_v off_o all_o scandal_n and_o offence_n from_o man_n and_o yet_o i_o say_v there_o be_v a_o immanence_n in_o the_o act_n of_o faith_n when_o it_o be_v act_v upon_o jesus_n christ_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o second_o point_n that_o i_o will_v be_v something_o more_o large_a in_o and_o that_o be_v concern_v full_a assurance_n of_o faith_n in_o point_n of_o conscience_n or_o the_o peace_n of_o conscience_n and_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o assurance_n that_o god_n be_v we_o now_o if_o i_o can_v here_o make_v out_o to_o you_o how_o that_o assurance_n come_v into_o the_o soul_n and_o how_o it_o be_v bear_v up_o by_o christ_n and_o by_o the_o father_n and_o by_o the_o spirit_n i_o shall_v think_v it_o be_v to_o great_a edification_n i_o say_v if_o i_o be_v in_o any_o measure_n able_a to_o make_v it_o out_o according_a to_o the_o excellency_n of_o the_o thing_n i_o shall_v therefore_o go_v as_o far_o as_o the_o lord_n shall_v please_v to_o assist_v by_o his_o spirit_n in_o it_o therefore_o the_o first_o thing_n that_o i_o shall_v say_v to_o you_o by_o which_o a_o man_n come_v to_o have_v a_o assurance_n of_o the_o pardon_n and_o forgiveness_n of_o his_o sin_n i_o shall_v speak_v it_o in_o the_o very_a scripture_n language_n it_o be_v first_o of_o all_o by_o a_o immediate_a voice_n of_o the_o blood_n i_o say_v by_o a_o immediate_a voice_n of_o the_o blood_n and_o then_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o it_o be_v by_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o water_n from_o christ_n and_o then_o in_o the_o three_o piace_n by_o the_o spirit_n and_o then_o in_o the_o four_o place_n that_o the_o father_n from_o heaven_n come_v and_o ratify_v and_o assure_v this_o testimony_n of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o blood_n and_o in_o the_o water_n first_o i_o say_v it_o proceed_v immediate_o for_o i_o will_v speak_v of_o the_o thing_n in_o the_o order_n of_o nature_n from_o the_o blood_n for_o nothing_o do_v so_o immediate_o speak_v peace_n to_o a_o sinner_n as_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o so_o many_o thing_n be_v speak_v of_o christ_n of_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o of_o his_o death_n and_o of_o his_o suffering_n i_o may_v give_v you_o many_o place_n of_o scripture_n that_o put_v most_o upon_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o sacrifice_n as_o to_o our_o sense_n and_o apprehension_n than_o upon_o any_o thing_n i_o say_v upon_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n how_o much_o more_o shall_v the_o blood_n offer_v by_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n you_o know_v heb._n 9_o and_o the_o blood_n of_o sprinkle_v that_o speak_v better_a thing_n than_o that_o of_o abel_n c._n 12._o and_o heb._n 10_o 24._o have_v boldness_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n to_o enter_v into_o the_o holy_a it_o be_v put_v upon_o the_o blood_n the_o blood_n of_o the_o everlasting_a covenant_n heb._n 13._o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n cleanse_v from_o all_o unrighteousness_n 1_o john_n 1_o who_o love_v we_o and_o wash_v in_o his_o blood_n rev._n 1._o and_o rev._n c._n 7._o they_o have_v wash_v their_o robe_n white_a in_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lamb_n and_o so_o the_o apostle_n speak_v proportionable_o in_o this_o 1_o john_n 5._o there_o be_v three_o that_o bear_v witness_n in_o heaven_n the_o father_n the_o word_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o then_o there_o be_v the_o spirit_n the_o water_n and_o the_o blood_n the_o blood_n it_o have_v a_o immediate_a voice_n and_o this_o be_v he_o say_v the_o apostle_n that_o come_v by_o water_n and_o by_o blood_n not_o by_o water_n only_o pray_v observe_v that_o it_o put_v a_o emphasis_n upon_o the_o blood_n not_o by_o water_n only_o but_o by_o water_n and_o blood_n so_o i_o say_v whenever_o our_o soul_n come_v indeed_o to_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o peace_n with_o god_n it_o be_v by_o blood_n the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n which_o be_v carry_v into_o the_o holy_a place_n not_o make_v with_o hand_n we_o be_v purge_v by_o the_o blood_n offer_v by_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n we_o have_v confidence_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n o_o therefore_o when_o christ_n be_v please_v to_o send_v out_o the_o mighty_a efflux_n the_o efluvium_n of_o his_o blood_n when_o he_o send_v they_o out_o and_z draws_z and_o twist_n and_o bring_v back_o the_o conscience_n and_o the_o heart_n upon_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n when_o he_o be_v please_v to_o do_v thus_o those_o strong_a act_n upon_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n they_o do_v as_o it_o be_v recoil_v and_o come_v back_o upon_o the_o soul_n and_o upon_o the_o conscience_n with_o the_o assurance_n of_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n in_o that_o blood_n therefore_o bless_a be_v he_o that_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o hear_v in_o his_o own_o conscience_n the_o blood_n of_o sprinkle_v speak_v better_a thing_n than_o that_o of_o abel_n and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n because_o i_o treat_v as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v of_o it_o i_o come_v to_o the_o second_o thing_n and_o that_o be_v to_o give_v you_o a_o account_n of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n come_v in_o by_o the_o water_n now_o i_o confess_v i_o shall_v give_v somewhat_o another_o interpretation_n than_o i_o have_v know_v give_v concern_v water_n for_o i_o look_v upon_o the_o water_n not_o as_o some_o will_v very_a chilly_n and_o cold_o understand_v it_o of_o baptism_n except_o that_o spiritual_a baptism_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o i_o always_o desire_v to_o magnify_v or_o that_o it_o be_v mere_o sanctification_n which_o the_o generality_n of_o interpreter_n give_v it_o to_o be_v but_o by_o water_n i_o understand_v the_o very_a obedience_n and_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n separate_v from_o his_o suffering_n that_o great_a obedience_n which_o be_v like_o a_o river_n pure_a as_o crystal_n that_o run_v through_o the_o whole_a obedience_n of_o jesus_n christ_n from_o the_o very_a beginning_n to_o the_o end_n and_o the_o reason_n why_o i_o take_v it_o so_o and_o not_o to_o be_v sanctification_n be_v this_o because_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o this_o 5_o chapter_n of_o the_o one_a epistle_n of_o john_n this_o be_v he_o that_o come_v by_o water_n and_o by_o blood_n not_o by_o water_n only_o but_o by_o water_n and_o blood_n he_o come_v himself_o by_o water_n and_o by_o blood_n he_o himself_o come_v this_o he_o take_v notice_n of_o he_o he_o come_v by_o water_n and_o he_o come_v by_o blood_n he_o come_v by_o the_o water_n of_o a_o pure_a and_o perfect_a righteousness_n in_o which_o there_o be_v nothing_o at_o all_o of_o imperfection_n or_o soil_n or_o the_o least_o of_o blemish_n he_o come_v by_o this_o water_n and_o so_o you_o find_v the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n be_v often_o mention_v in_o scripture_n i_o shall_v give_v you_o that_o place_n for_o all_o rom._n 5._o v._n 18._o say_v the_o apostle_n there_o by_o the_o obedience_n he_o speak_v often_o of_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n but_o by_o the_o obedience_n of_o one_o shall_v many_o be_v make_v righteous_a ver_fw-la 19_o and_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o one_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o and_o the_o righteousness_n of_o one_o the_o disobedience_n of_o one_o and_o the_o obedience_n of_o one_o so_o obedience_n and_o righteousness_n they_o be_v of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o import_n and_o the_o come_n by_o water_n i_o say_v be_v come_v by_o the_o perfect_a obedience_n righteousness_n of_o the_o whole_a nature_n and_o action_n and_o performance_n of_o jesus_n christ_n now_o therefore_o when_o the_o soul_n be_v salute_v as_o i_o may_v so_o express_v it_o by_o christ_n with_o this_o obedience_n in_o his_o hand_n when_o he_o come_v say_v christ_n to_o the_o soul_n i_o have_v obey_v i_o have_v fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n i_o have_v do_v always_o the_o
