6._o last_o for_o in_o they_o god_n seek_v the_o praise_n of_o his_o grace_n eph_n 1._o 6._o and_o so_o they_o must_v be_v gift_n &_o free_a thing_n now_o a_o gift_n must_v not_o be_v deserve_v for_o

why_o god_n so_o magnify_v faith_n as_o to_o make_v it_o the_o only_a mean_n of_o obtain_v christ_n &_o salvation_n because_o faith_n only_o magnify_v god_n free_a grace_n for_o if_o any_o thing_n be_v do_v then_o christ_n &_o heaven_n can_v not_o be_v gift_n and_o this_o also_o show_v that_o faith_n only_o as_o it_o be_v a_o receive_v christ_n and_o no_o other_o way_n not_o as_o it_o be_v a_o

to_o come_v to_o christ_n receive_v &_o believe_v in_o he_o than_o it_o be_v not_o so_o hard_a a_o work_n to_o be_v save_v as_o it_o be_v make_v to_o be_v for_o that_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a &_o short_a

but_o it_o be_v all_o above_o the_o power_n of_o nature_n and_o contrary_a to_o man_n inclination_n as_o to_o go_v whole_o out_o of_o one_o self_n and_o rest_n on_o a_o other_o for_o all_o good_a to_o apprehend_v sin_n &_o its_o misery_n therefore_o the_o spirit_n must_v come_v from_o heaven_n to_o convince_v of_o sin_n john_n 16_o 8._o and_o then_o to_o apprehend_v a_o way_n of_o be_v justify_v from_o sin_n the_o spirit_n must_v likewise_o come_v from_o heaven_n to_o convince_v of_o righteousness_n which_o need_v not_o if_o any_o thing_n but_o god_n can_v do_v it_o and_o so_o for_o a_o man_n to_o renounce_v his_o own_o will_n &_o way_n and_o give_v up_o himself_o to_o christ_n who_o law_n be_v so_o contrary_a to_o man_n will_n this_o be_v above_o nature_n also_o the_o devil_n be_v most_o strong_o against_o this_o hence_o so_o many_o discouragement_n &_o subtle_a tentation_n be_v put_v on_o they_o that_o endeavour_n to_o believe_v for_o satan_n know_v that_o this_o only_a give_v christ_n the_o kingdom_n and_o turn_v he_o out_o to_o conclude_v therefore_o be_v it_o so_o hard_a to_o be_v save_v and_o so_o few_o be_v save_v because_o it_o be_v so_o hard_a to_o believe_v and_o so_o few_o do_v believe_v but_o it_o be_v far_o object_v against_o this_o doctrine_n thus_o the_o scripture_n call_v for_o many_o thing_n beside_o faith_n of_o they_o that_o be_v save_v as_o legal_a humiliation_n mortification_n holiness_n obedience_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o it_o seem_v that_o believe_v or_o come_v to_o christ_n be_v not_o all_o that_o god_n require_v i_o answer_v the_o legal_a humiliation_n and_o all_o wound_n of_o spirit_n with_o the_o sight_n of_o sin_n be_v require_v not_o as_o mean_n by_o which_o we_o partake_v of_o christ_n &_o salvation_n for_o many_o have_v they_o that_o never_o obtain_v christ_n or_o salvation_n but_o as_o preparation_n whereby_o people_n be_v fit_v &_o incline_v and_o draw_v to_o come_v to_o christ_n to_o receive_v &_o believe_v on_o he_o and_o they_o be_v one_o mean_n by_o which_o the_o father_n draw_v and_o the_o minister_n compel_v people_n to_o come_v and_o mortification_n holiness_n obedience_n &c_n &c_n be_v only_o the_o fruit_n &_o effect_n of_o our_o believe_v that_o which_o christ_n do_v in_o they_o he_o mean_v to_o save_v after_o they_o have_v believe_v in_o he_o these_o be_v the_o begining_n of_o salvation_n &_o glory_n which_o christ_n begin_v and_o perfect_v in_o they_o that_o come_v to_o he_o for_o salvation_n so_o that_o although_o these_o must_v be_v in_o all_o that_o be_v save_v yet_o there_o be_v no_o other_o mean_v require_v of_o god_n for_o obtain_v christ_n and_o salvation_n but_o only_o believe_v uses_n use_v 1_o first_o use_v may_v serve_v for_o instruction_n in_o three_o particular_n instruction_n instruction_n 1._o to_o show_v we_o in_o the_o general_n what_o to_o observe_v in_o man_n salvation_n viz_o free_a grace_n certainty_n and_o that_o god_n be_v all_o in_o all_o in_o itt_n these_o as_o you_o hear_v in_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o point_n be_v manifest_v abundant_o in_o god_n require_v no_o other_o mean_n of_o get_v christ_n and_o salvation_n by_o christ_n but_o only_o believe_v therefore_o let_v we_o see_v these_o in_o god_n his_o save_n of_o people_n this_o be_v indeed_o the_o sweetness_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o which_o make_v it_o so_o much_o glorify_v god_n &_o encourage_v miserable_a man_n that_o it_o assure_v we_o all_o happiness_n be_v to_o be_v have_v in_o christ_n for_o receive_v it_o 2._o to_o show_v their_o error_n that_o labour_v most_o for_o pleasure_n wealth_n honour_n content_a etc._n etc._n whereas_o these_o neither_o be_v mean_n nor_o be_v require_v by_o god_n for_o our_o get_n christ_n &_o salvation_n therefore_o folly_n it_o be_v to_o labour_v for_o they_o more_o then_o to_o believe_v 3._o to_o show_v the_o error_n both_o of_o papist_n who_o seek_v

which_o christ_n be_v free_o tender_v to_o every_o one_o on_o the_o term_n of_o believe_a and_o labour_n to_o believe_v therefore_o against_o all_o malicious_a suggestion_n of_o satan_n and_o against_o all_o carnal_a reason_n of_o thy_o own_o heart_n bold_o endeavour_v to_o rely_v on_o christ_n merit_n for_o thy_o justification_n and_o so_o do_v thou_o shall_v be_v save_v thus_o reason_n with_o yourself_o do_v god_n free_o offer_v christ_n to_o save_v all_o that_o entertain_v he_o and_o require_v nothing_o but_o our_o accept_v he_o why_o then_o shall_v not_o i_o venture_v my_o soul_n on_o he_o and_o rest_v confident_a how_o can_v the_o god_n of_o truth_n but_o be_v as_o good_a as_o his_o word_n and_o if_o he_o be_v so_o how_o can_v i_o but_o obtain_v salvation_n by_o christ_n if_o i_o trust_v in_o christ_n i_o will_v believe_v a_o man_n who_o i_o think_v honest_a upon_o his_o word_n and_o shall_v i_o not_o god_n when_o i_o have_v his_o word_n &_o oath_n 2._o i_o be_o to_o speak_v to_o another_o sort_n of_o people_n viz_o such_o of_o you_o as_o mind_v not_o christ_n at_o all_o or_o if_o you_o do_v yet_o not_o so_o much_o as_o to_o let_v he_o reign_v over_o you_o but_o be_v still_o bend_v on_o your_o lust_n &_o your_o old_a &_o former_a way_n you_o be_v they_o who_o yet_o mind_n some_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n to_o much_o and_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o entertain_v christ_n for_o your_o king_n be_v you_o now_o exhort_v to_o receive_v he_o and_o let_v he_o reign_v over_o you_o he_o may_v be_v have_v upon_o these_o term_n even_o by_o you_o for_o he_o be_v free_a for_o every_o one_o on_o these_o term_n therefore_o entertain_v he_o let_v the_o world_n &_o your_o lust_n go_v and_o choose_v christ_n reason_n thus_o with_o yourselves_o be_v not_o the_o love_n of_o the_o world_n enmity_n to_o god_n so_o that_o he_o that_o be_v a_o friend_n to_o the_o world_n must_v be_v god_n enemy_n the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n they_o be_v but_o perish_v uncertain_a insufficient_a helper_n &_o comforter_n and_o as_o for_o my_o lust_n &_o way_n be_v they_o not_o deceitful_a vanish_v &_o damnable_a be_v not_o the_o fruit_n of_o every_o sin_n shame_n and_o the_o wage_n death_n must_v i_o not_o leave_v they_o &_o get_v pardon_n for_o they_o or_o go_v to_o hell_n why_o then_o shall_v i_o prefer_v the_o world_n &_o sin_n before_o christ_n and_o as_o the_o jew_n in_o a_o other_o case_n choose_v barrabas_n a_o murderer_n and_o let_v christ_n go_v at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n i_o shall_v need_v christ_n but_o how_o can_v i_o think_v christ_n will_v own_v i_o hereafter_o if_o i_o now_o will_v not_o own_v he_o and_o let_v he_o rule_v over_o i_o will_v he_o not_o one_o day_n bid_v i_o depart_v and_o say_v he_o know_v i_o not_o if_o i_o be_v a_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n wherefore_o since_o christ_n be_v so_o free_a that_o i_o may_v receive_v he_o as_o well_o as_o any_o other_o so_o that_o i_o will_v but_o renounce_v all_o my_o sinful_a

persuade_v this_o day_n to_o abandon_v the_o world_n &_o your_o sin_n and_o entertain_v christ_n for_o your_o lord_n &_o king_n do_v it_o when_o as_o you_o hear_v that_o if_o you_o now_o accept_v christ_n you_o shall_v be_v wellcome_v and_o though_o hitherto_o you_o have_v be_v great_a sinner_n yet_o now_o if_o you_o abandon_v your_o lust_n and_o embrace_v christ_n you_o shall_v have_v he_o
