A89860 What the possession of the living faith is, and the fruits thereof and wherein it hath been found to differ from the dead faith of the world, in the learning and following of Christ in the regeneration. With an opening of Light to all sorts of people that waits for the Kingdom of God; and a candle lighted to give the sight of the good old way of God, from the wayes that now ensnares the simple.

of_o that_o spirit_n in_o the_o way_n i_o have_v make_v void_a my_o hope_n of_o glory_n the_o work_n of_o my_o redemption_n and_o that_o which_o christ_n do_v at_o jerusalem_n as_o to_o i_o and_o have_v deny_v my_o first_o faith_n and_o can_v not_o have_v be_v save_v from_o wrath_n to_o come_v that_o be_v the_o end_n of_o that_o faith_n commit_v to_o i_o that_o therein_o i_o may_v faithful_o without_o doubt_v follow_v he_o in_o spirit_n through_o all_o trial_n and_o temptation_n of_o which_o way_n he_o be_v a_o perfect_a example_n in_o his_o walk_n in_o that_o flesh_n at_o jerusalem_n that_o through_o the_o scripture_n i_o may_v have_v hope_n see_v he_o go_v the_o same_o way_n before_o i_o there_o in_o which_o he_o now_o lead_v and_o that_o therein_o i_o may_v see_v he_o to_o be_v the_o same_o to_o all_o generation_n as_o he_o be_v there_o and_o in_o his_o saint_n that_o follow_v he_o and_o as_o they_o exhort_v one_o another_o to_o look_v unto_o he_o in_o their_o travel_n who_o be_v the_o author_n and_o finisher_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o to_o consider_v he_o as_o a_o example_n who_o endure_v such_o contradiction_n of_o sinner_n against_o himself_o lest_o they_o shall_v be_v weary_a of_o suffer_v and_o faint_a in_o their_o mind_n and_o so_o their_o faith_n and_o hope_n be_v strengthen_v so_o also_o i_o look_v to_o the_o same_o in_o he_o and_o also_o in_o they_o after_o he_o my_o faith_n and_o patience_n may_v be_v double_v and_o my_o obedience_n make_v without_o doubt_v and_o my_o hope_n firm_a unto_o the_o end_n which_o end_n be_v the_o win_v christ_n in_o i_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n the_o great_a mystery_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v hide_v from_o all_o till_o the_o revelation_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o so_o when_o the_o saint_n and_o apostle_n have_v christ_n reveal_v in_o they_o they_o be_v able_a minister_n of_o he_o and_o have_v the_o mystery_n open_v and_o preach_v it_o without_o doubt_n that_o mystery_n of_o godliness_n which_o be_v great_a yet_o hide_v from_o the_o world_n but_o to_o they_o without_o all_o controversy_n god_n manifest_a in_o flesh_n not_o god_n flesh_n but_o manifest_a in_o flesh_n which_o mystery_n of_o faith_n they_o hold_v in_o a_o pure_a conscience_n and_o so_o i_o know_v my_o faith_n to_o be_v the_o same_o faith_n once_o deliver_v to_o the_o saint_n and_o the_o good_a fight_n of_o that_o faith_n i_o come_v to_o know_v and_o that_o faith_n which_o overcome_v the_o world_n which_o have_v the_o promise_n and_o inheritance_n of_o eternal_a life_n which_o all_o that_o go_v back_o from_o deny_v the_o faith_n of_o christ_n and_o set_v up_o a_o faith_n without_o christ_n which_o be_v not_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o in_o the_o learning_n of_o christ_n i_o come_v to_o see_v the_o faith_n of_o christ_n from_o faith_n to_o faith_n and_o the_o faith_n of_o devil_n the_o live_a work_a faith_n and_o the_o dead_a faith_n without_o work_n and_o i_o find_v that_o christ_n never_o believe_v that_o he_o can_v never_o be_v perfect_a nor_o overcome_v the_o devil_n nor_o overcome_v sin_n it_o be_v never_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n to_o make_v void_a the_o law_n of_o his_o father_n unfulfil_v in_o he_o it_o be_v never_o his_o faith_n to_o revenge_v evil_a but_o to_o overcome_v it_o with_o good_a it_o be_v never_o his_o faith_n to_o respect_v person_n or_o that_o he_o can_v commit_v sin_n and_o not_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o sin_n it_o be_v never_o his_o faith_n to_o sue_v contend_v or_o fight_v or_o persecute_v any_o to_o judge_v for_o reward_n or_o preach_v for_o hire_v or_o any_o way_n to_o serve_v the_o mammon_n of_o this_o world_n it_o be_v not_o his_o faith_n to_o observe_v his_o own_o will_n his_o own_o time_n or_o the_o world_n custom_n but_o to_o observe_v his_o father_n in_o all_o thing_n and_o only_o what_o he_o receive_v from_o he_o that_o he_o do_v and_o can_v do_v nothing_o of_o himself_o he_o never_o believe_v they_o to_o be_v child_n of_o god_n who_o say_v and_o do_v not_o and_o much_o such_o like_a thing_n as_o these_o be_v never_o by_o he_o believe_v but_o be_v the_o world_n faith_n to_o uphold_v they_o in_o sin_n &_o lust_n who_o be_v enemy_n to_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n which_o present_v perfect_a to_o god_n by_o work_v out_o such_o evil_n all_o whieh_n i_o eme_n to_o see_v not_o by_o man_n but_o in_o the_o revelation_n of_o christ_n as_o in_o his_o faith_n i_o learn_v he_o grow_v into_o his_o faith_n into_o he_o and_o his_o life_n therein_o make_v manifest_a in_o my_o body_n so_o i_o see_v what_o be_v his_o in_o truth_n as_o the_o truth_n be_v in_o jesus_n and_o what_o be_v the_o world_n and_o but_o call_v he_o to_o oppose_v he_o and_o i_o see_v that_o which_o love_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n to_o be_v none_o of_o his_o love_n nor_o that_o his_o joy_n that_o take_v pleasure_n in_o visible_a thing_n nor_o that_o his_o liberty_n which_o be_v in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o flesh_n nor_o

by_o the_o precept_n of_o man_n these_o be_v in_o the_o world_n and_o not_o in_o he_o but_o have_v only_o get_v the_o name_n to_o be_v his_o but_o be_v enemy_n to_o his_o life_n and_o be_v never_o beget_v of_o his_o father_n nor_o learned_a in_o the_o son_n all_o which_o and_o much_o like_a stuff_n i_o come_v to_o see_v the_o deceit_n of_o by_o that_o truth_n and_o simplicity_n i_o find_v in_o christ_n contrary_a to_o the_o will_n of_o man_n and_o so_o in_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n i_o have_v learned_a to_o know_v the_o growth_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o riches_n of_o it_o and_o the_o end_n of_o it_o which_o be_v christ_n jesus_n in_o all_o its_o work_n and_o i_o also_o know_v the_o world_n faith_n its_o uncleanness_n who_o end_n be_v not_o to_o attain_v the_o

have_v no_o mind_n to_o walk_v in_o themselves_o and_o so_o that_o faith_n work_v not_o by_o love_n which_o love_v not_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n but_o be_v enemy_n to_o his_o cross_n mind_v earthly_a thing_n and_o this_o be_v the_o earthly_a faith_n but_o the_o live_a faith_n work_v by_o love_n to_o holiness_n of_o life_n and_o therefore_o purify_v the_o heart_n and_o the_o mystery_n of_o it_o stand_v in_o a_o pure_a conscience_n within_o themselves_o that_o have_v it_o and_o not_o in_o tell_v and_o comprehend_v what_o be_v in_o another_o for_o the_o devil_n believe_v the_o holiness_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o can_v preach_v it_o but_o can_v inherit_v it_o because_o they_o love_v not_o to_o live_v the_o life_n of_o it_o and_o by_o this_o i_o know_v they_o both_o for_o ever_o and_o all_o that_o prove_v they_o in_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n shall_v witness_v with_o i_o the_o end_n of_o the_o one_o be_v the_o life_n of_o christ_n in_o which_o himself_o walk_v and_o the_o same_o obedience_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n to_o the_o same_o father_n by_o the_o same_o power_n according_a to_o the_o proportion_n of_o faith_n receive_v from_o god_n which_o faith_n be_v from_o above_o and_o so_o lay_v hold_v on_o heavenly_a thing_n for_o its_o strength_n and_o so_o bring_v forth_o heavenly_a fruit_n the_o other_o profess_v and_o promise_v great_a thing_n but_o

count_v it_o a_o error_n in_o such_o as_o press_v after_o such_o attainment_n and_o so_o the_o end_n of_o the_o conversation_n of_o one_o be_v christ_n jesus_n to_o hold_v forth_o in_o life_n and_o power_n the_o same_o yesterday_o and_o to_o day_n and_o for_o ever_o the_o end_n of_o the_o other_o be_v a_o liberty_n to_o sin_n here_o while_o they_o can_v take_v any_o pleasure_n in_o it_o and_o

any_o share_n or_o possession_n in_o he_o that_o faith_n which_o be_v not_o holy_a come_v not_o from_o god_n and_o so_o can_v build_v up_o to_o god_n that_o be_v not_o save_v faith_n that_o do_v not_o save_v from_o sin_n but_o be_v deceive_a faith_n which_o deceive_v the_o soul_n and_o suffer_v lust_n to_o defile_v it_o and_o destroy_v it_o and_o so_o bring_v it_o under_o condemnation_n by_o believe_v lie_n and_o so_o let_v in_o sin_n upon_o the_o soul_n by_o consent_n persuade_v that_o it_o can_v be_v otherwise_o and_o so_o give_v the_o devil_n victory_n and_o the_o world_n victory_n and_o the_o flesh_n victory_n and_o sin_n victory_n over_o the_o soul_n which_o shall_v give_v the_o soul_n victory_n over_o all_o and_o what_o great_a deceit_n can_v there_o be_v to_o the_o soul_n than_o this_o be_v and_o therefore_o for_o ever_o that_o which_o i_o have_v see_v and_o learn_v do_v i_o declare_v open_o that_o this_o be_v the_o deceive_a faith_n indeed_o rather_o unbelief_n than_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n which_o make_v way_n for_o the_o god_n of_o this_o world_n to_o reign_v and_o act_n in_o thing_n contrary_a to_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o creature_n and_o the_o life_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o that_o faith_n which_o give_v way_n to_o the_o least_o sin_n be_v not_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n who_o work_n and_o come_n be_v to_o destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o redeem_v the_o soul_n from_o sin_n and_o the_o least_o measure_n of_o that_o faith_n that_o stand_v in_o his_o life_n overcome_v the_o world_n and_o sin_n in_o that_o measure_n and_o he_o that_o commit_v sin_n go_v out_o of_o that_o faith_n and_o act_n against_o it_o and_o a_o lie_a faith_n i_o have_v find_v that_o to_o be_v which_o persuade_v the_o soul_n of_o freedom_n from_o condemnation_n but_o give_v it_o not_o freedom_n from_o sin_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o condemnation_n and_o all_o shall_v witness_v this_o with_o i_o now_o or_o hereafter_o that_o where_o sin_n have_v power_n there_o death_n have_v power_n and_o the_o grave_n and_o hell_n and_o condemnation_n have_v power_n also_o for_o these_o be_v the_o wage_n of_o sin_n then_o shall_v you_o say_v you_o be_v deceive_v who_o believe_v the_o contrary_a and_o may_v not_o such_o true_o be_v say_v to_o be_v past_a feel_n indeed_o who_o can_v commit_v sin_n and_o feel_v no_o condemnation_n for_o it_o already_o and_o this_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o their_o false_a faith_n to_o harden_v themselves_o against_o the_o faithful_a witness_n of_o god_n in_o their_o own_o conscience_n and_o the_o sear_a conscience_n have_v make_v ship_n wrack_n of_o the_o faith_n christ_n and_o the_o doctrine_n of_o devil_n preach_v the_o faith_n of_o devil_n to_o give_v way_n to_o the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n which_o all_o sin_n be_v from_o the_o least_o to_o the_o great_a and_o he_o that_o plead_v for_o it_o be_v a_o father_n to_o it_o and_o he_o that_o commit_v it_o a_o servant_n and_o may_v look_v for_o the_o wage_n thereof_o if_o he_o repent_v not_o notwithstanding_o he_o believe_v the_o contrary_n and_o many_o may_v feel_v this_o truth_n at_o this_o day_n who_o have_v a_o long_a time_n believe_v with_o this_o faith_n deceive_v their_o own_o soul_n day_n after_o day_n believe_v they_o shall_v not_o be_v condemn_v when_o they_o be_v condemn_v already_o in_o their_o own_o heart_n and_o feel_v the_o weight_n of_o sin_n daily_o press_v their_o soul_n and_o burden_v the_o pure_a conscience_n and_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n and_o sin_n keep_v their_o soul_n still_o in_o bondage_n and_o lie_v upon_o they_o all_o their_o life_n and_o yet_o they_o will_v force_v themselves_o to_o believe_v contrary_a to_o holy_a faith_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n that_o they_o be_v save_v and_o redeem_v and_o thus_o make_v ship_n wrack_n of_o save_a faith_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n by_o believe_v a_o lie_n contrary_a to_o their_o own_o daily_a feel_n no_o other_o thing_n to_o encourage_v they_o therein_o but_o this_o persuasion_n which_o suit_n well_o with_o such_o as_o take_v pleasure_n in_o unrighteousness_n which_o persuasion_n come_v not_o of_o god_n but_o condemn_v by_o that_o of_o god_n in_o themselves_o and_o this_o be_v the_o state_n of_o many_o at_o this_o day_n though_o some_o there_o be_v who_o conscience_n be_v sear_v and_o feel_v not_o this_o witness_n live_v in_o they_o though_o their_o damnation_n slumber_v not_o though_o they_o have_v lose_v their_o call_v and_o election_n also_o and_o this_o have_v i_o learn_v in_o christ_n that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n both_o in_o effect_n and_o nature_n betwixt_o that_o faith_n which_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o that_o faith_n which_o man_n make_v to_o themselves_o for_o that_o which_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n be_v of_o his_o own_o nature_n clean_a pure_a and_o perfect_a as_o be_v all_o his_o gift_n and_o so_o it_o work_v natural_o the_o work_n and_o will_n of_o god_n in_o all_o who_o receive_v it_o free_o and_o mix_v nothing_o with_o it_o to_o darken_v it_o or_o stop_v his_o work_n and_o by_o this_o faith_n i_o be_o save_v from_o sin_n and_o condemnation_n and_o beget_v to_o the_o father_n thereof_o in_o christ_n jesus_n which_o faith_n be_v not_o of_o myself_o but_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n to_o perfect_a holiness_n in_o the_o

that_o it_o be_v not_o my_o own_o work_n but_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o this_o effect_n have_v save_a work_a faith_n and_o this_o be_v its_o nature_n

to_o believe_v it_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o and_o so_o form_v a_o faith_n in_o himself_o and_o though_o this_o faith_n be_v not_o perfect_a when_o he_o have_v form_v it_o and_o make_v it_o with_o all_o his_o strength_n but_o many_o thing_n in_o scripture_n and_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o saint_n but_o especial_o that_o of_o god_n in_o his_o own_o conscience_n will_v not_o suit_v with_o it_o
