be_v there_o assurance_n by_o charity_n no_o such_o matter_n for_o he_o have_v tell_v we_o before_o that_o charity_n be_v seat_v in_o the_o 6._o the_o sect._n 6._o dark_a corner_n of_o the_o will_n and_o we_o can_v tell_v whether_o we_o have_v it_o or_o not_o and_o so_o whereas_o the_o apostle_n and_o by_o he_o s._n austin_n say_v that_o we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v translate_v from_o death_n to_o life_n because_o we_o love_v the_o brethren_n he_o contrariwise_o say_v we_o can_v know_v that_o we_o be_v translate_v from_o death_n to_o life_n because_o we_o can_v know_v that_o we_o love_v

of_o faith_n be_v no_o denial_n of_o the_o mean_n and_o help_v from_o which_o it_o gather_v and_o increase_v this_o assurance_n faith_n give_v assurance_n of_o salvation_n by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n not_o only_o by_o apprehend_v the_o promise_n of_o life_n &_o salvation_n but_o also_o by_o observe_v such_o mark_n and_o token_n as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n set_v down_o to_o describe_v they_o to_o who_o this_o salvation_n do_v appertain_v which_o when_o a_o man_n find_v in_o himself_o his_o faith_n thereby_o give_v he_o the_o comfort_n of_o salvation_n because_o it_o believe_v that_o which_o the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v deliver_v concern_v they_o in_o who_o those_o sign_n &_o mark_n be_v find_v therefore_o it_o do_v not_o only_o look_v to_o that_o which_o christ_n say_v that_o 3.16_o that_o john_n 3.16_o whosoever_o believe_v shall_v have_v everlasting_a life_n but_o because_o christ_n also_o say_v 8.47_o say_v john_n 8.47_o he_o that_o be_v of_o god_n hear_v god_n word_n therefore_o the_o faithful_a man_n delight_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n believe_v concern_v himself_o that_o he_o be_v of_o god_n because_o the_o apostle_n say_v 10.13_o say_v rom._n 10.13_o every_o one_o that_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v save_v therefore_o the_o faithful_a man_n unfeigned_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n believe_v of_o himself_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v save_v and_o so_o whereas_o s._n john_n say_v that_o we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v translate_v from_o death_n to_o life_n because_o we_o love_v the_o brethren_n it_o be_v our_o faith_n whereby_o we_o take_v this_o knowledge_n that_o we_o be_v translate_v from_o death_n to_o life_n because_o we_o love_v the_o brethren_n for_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v it_o but_o that_o our_o faith_n believe_v that_o which_o the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v teach_v we_o in_o that_o behalf_n how_o idle_o then_o do_v he_o argue_v that_o we_o need_v not_o seek_v for_o charity_n for_o assurance_n of_o salvation_n if_o we_o be_v assure_v thereof_o by_o faith_n when_o charity_n itself_o be_v appoint_v for_o a_o help_n of_o that_o assurance_n which_o we_o have_v by_o faith_n when_o
