of_o godliness_n as_o fire_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o heat_n and_o yet_o as_o the_o cause_n be_v such_o be_v the_o effect_n for_o powerful_a cause_n make_v powerful_a effect_n that_o be_v a_o undeniable_a truth_n in_o philosophy_n and_o that_o be_v the_o very_a reason_n why_o godliness_n be_v so_o powerful_a in_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n now_o will_v thou_o know_v the_o work_n of_o grace_n or_o of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o soul_n first_o then_o i_o will_v set_v down_o some_o of_o these_o fundamental_a grace_n which_o cause_n godliness_n and_o second_o how_o they_o be_v wrought_v in_o and_o upon_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n first_o then_o take_v these_o four_o grace_n faith_n repentance_n self-denial_n and_o love_n not_o that_o i_o intend_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n or_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o grace_n here_o mention_v but_o only_o to_o speak_v a_o word_n or_o two_o to_o each_o and_o so_o proceed_v to_o show_v how_o they_o be_v wrought_v and_o their_o footstep_n in_o the_o soul_n of_o believer_n and_o first_o to_o begin_v with_o faith_n not_o to_o trouble_v you_o with_o that_o which_o be_v historical_a temporary_a or_o legal_a but_o to_o speak_v of_o that_o true_a evangelical_n saving_n and_o justify_v faith_n i'faith_o than_o be_v a_o certain_a grace_n wrought_v in_o the_o soul_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n intellectus_fw-la fides_n est_fw-la actus_fw-la intellectus_fw-la and_o by_o the_o word_n preach_v and_o its_o a_o act_n of_o the_o understanding_n also_o now_o i_o put_v the_o word_n and_o the_o spirit_n together_o as_o they_o ordinary_o be_v appoint_v to_o work_v together_o to_o make_v a_o man_n a_o believer_n for_o i_o dare_v bold_o say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o itself_o never_o yet_o to_o this_o day_n wrought_v faith_n in_o any_o man_n without_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n work_v with_o it_o but_o i_o be_o confident_a that_o the_o spirit_n may_v and_o do_v where_o the_o word_n preach_v be_v not_o to_o be_v have_v work_v this_o faith_n in_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o elect_n 3.6_o 1_o cor._n 3.6_o paul_n may_v plant_v &_o apollo_n may_v water_v but_o it_o be_v god_n that_o give_v the_o increase_n a_o man_n may_v live_v all_o day_n of_o his_o life_n under_o a_o powerful_a ministry_n and_o stand_v by_o christ_n and_o hear_v the_o joyful_a sound_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o yet_o never_o the_o near_o they_o shall_v count_v it_o but_o as_o thunder_n as_o those_o do_v in_o john_n 12.29_o 12.29_o joh._n 12.29_o unless_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n bore_v the_o ear_n and_o sanctifi_v their_o heart_n to_o understand_v and_o believe_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n and_o though_o faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n yet_o as_o god_n put_v forth_o a_o hand_n in_o give_v of_o faith_n so_o he_o give_v a_o hand_n to_o his_o elect_n to_o receive_v faith_n otherwise_o they_o can_v never_o have_v it_o thus_o god_n illuminate_v the_o understanding_n whereby_o it_o come_v to_o know_v that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o christ_n be_v faith_n christ_n the_o object_n of_o faith_n and_o then_o he_o convince_v the_o judgement_n that_o this_o christ_n be_v very_o excellent_a and_o that_o of_o necessity_n he_o must_v be_v have_v or_o else_o the_o soul_n be_v undo_v then_o come_v the_o will_n say_v if_o christ_n be_v so_o good_a and_o that_o of_o necessity_n i_o must_v have_v he_o o_o then_o i_o will_v receive_v he_o thus_o at_o length_n be_v faith_n beget_v in_o the_o soul_n yet_o we_o must_v take_v heed_n of_o attribute_v any_o thing_n to_o man_n in_o this_o for_o all_o this_o be_v god_n own_o work_n and_o none_o of_o man_n now_o the_o other_o three_o grace_n may_v be_v style_v faith_n subsequent_o or_o concomitant_n faith_n companion_n or_o the_o fruit_n of_o faith_n yet_o i_o shall_v speak_v a_o word_n to_o each_o of_o they_o and_o first_o to_o repentance_n i_o say_v of_o the_o work_n of_o this_o grace_n in_o the_o soul_n of_o god_n elect_n as_o i_o have_v say_v of_o faith_n and_o in_o this_o work_n of_o repentance_n we_o must_v note_v these_o four_o step_n or_o degree_n repentance_n true_a repentance_n there_o be_v a_o sight_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o sin_n a_o convince_a judgement_n of_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n there_o be_v a_o cordial_a and_o hearty_a sorrow_n for_o sin_n there_o be_v a_o dislike_n of_o or_o a_o abhor_v and_o forsake_v of_o sin_n for_o the_o first_o of_o these_o namely_o the_o sight_n of_o sin_n in_o its_o own_o nature_n and_o proper_a colour_n now_o sin_n vail_v begin_v to_o be_v pluck_v off_o before_o sin_n be_v pleasurable_a and_o delightful_a now_o it_o be_v odious_a and_o loathsome_a now_o the_o soul_n discover_v sin_n to_o be_v a_o scorpion_n a_o serpent_n who_o sting_n will_v have_v cause_v eternal_a death_n that_o which_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o pleasant_a and_o delightfull_a companion_n be_v now_o the_o ugly_a base_a and_o contemptible_a thing_n that_o ever_o the_o soul_n

the_o soul_n look_v on_o sin_n as_o god_n great_a enemy_n yea_o as_o that_o whereby_o the_o soul_n have_v cast_v dirt_n in_o the_o very_a face_n of_o god_n and_o have_v grieve_v and_o do_v despite_n
