whether_o we_o have_v be_v right_a in_o the_o first_o act_n but_o there_o have_v be_v as_o they_o say_v a_o error_n in_o the_o foundation_n a_o error_n in_o the_o first_o concoction_n as_o physician_n speak_v and_o can_v be_v mend_v so_o there_o have_v be_v a_o error_n in_o take_v christ_n and_o error_n in_o the_o foundation_n become_v error_n in_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o a_o man_n building_n a_o man_n say_v he_o have_v take_v christ_n and_o life_n under_o the_o power_n of_o his_o lust_n and_o the_o power_n of_o the_o world_n because_o he_o never_o look_v christ_n aright_o man_n will_v say_v here_o you_o be_v mistake_v in_o your_o profession_n that_o you_o can_v live_v holy_o which_o your_o profession_n bind_v you_o to_o but_o i_o say_v if_o the_o thing_n be_v but_o well_o trace_v and_o inquire_v into_o it_o will_v be_v find_v here_o be_v the_o great_a miss_n that_o your_o first_o action_n fly_v off_o and_o do_v not_o right_o take_v christ_n the_o second_o chapter_n of_o john_n be_v a_o scripture_n that_o will_v clear_v this_o that_o a_o man_n may_v take_v christ_n by_o a_o false_a action_n and_o lose_v he_o in_o the_o very_a first_o rudiment_n and_o the_o first_o beginning_n by_o a_o mistake_n as_o now_o it_o be_v in_o nature_n in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o embryo_n in_o the_o womb_n if_o there_o be_v a_o false_a formation_n a_o monstrous_a formation_n in_o the_o womb_n there_o be_v a_o irregularity_n all_o along_o the_o life_n so_o if_o faith_n be_v mistake_v in_o its_o first_o act_n in_o suppose_v it_o take_v christ_n and_o do_v not_o that_o error_n can_v be_v mend_v the_o latter_a error_n may_v be_v more_o apparent_a than_o the_o first_o but_o the_o first_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o john_n 2._o 23_o 24_o 25._o now_o when_o he_o be_v in_o jernsalem_n at_o the_o passover_n in_o the_o feast-day_n many_o believe_v in_o his_o name_n when_o they_o see_v the_o miracle_n that_o he_o do_v one_o will_v have_v think_v this_o be_v true_a faith_n as_o the_o great_a man_n of_o reason_n say_v because_o they_o be_v bring_v over_o to_o believe_v by_o see_v the_o miracle_n of_o christ_n but_o jesus_n do_v not_o commit_v himself_o unto_o they_o because_o he_o know_v all_o man_n and_o need_v not_o that_o any_o shall_v testify_v of_o man_n for_o he_o know_v what_o be_v in_o man_n if_o he_o do_v not_o commit_v himself_o to_o they_o we_o may_v very_o well_o understand_v he_o do_v not_o unite_n himself_o to_o they_o he_o know_v it_o be_v not_o that_o faith_n to_o which_o he_o unite_v himself_o and_o his_o righteousness_n christ_n do_v not_o commit_v himself_o to_o a_o faith_n that_o be_v not_o indeed_o as_o i_o say_v before_o a_o faith_n of_o god_n elect_n and_o the_o like_a precious_a faith_n and_o that_o be_v not_o give_v by_o that_o divine_a lot_n of_o grace_n as_o the_o expression_n be_v 2_o pet._n 1._o 1._o that_o i_o have_v former_o speak_v to_o you_o of_o to_o they_o who_o have_v obtain_v by_o lot_n by_o this_o divine_a lot_n like_o precious_a faith_n with_o we_o according_a to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n and_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n i_o know_v we_o can_v look_v into_o this_o but_o by_o the_o divine_a spirit_n and_o by_o feel_v the_o twist_n of_o the_o soul_n about_o christ_n through_o that_o great_a operation_n of_o god_n upon_o we_o but_o this_o we_o may_v see_v plain_o christ_n do_v not_o commit_v himself_o to_o they_o so_o he_o do_v not_o commit_v his_o righteousness_n his_o propitiation_n his_o redemption_n he_o do_v not_o commit_v it_o but_o where_o he_o see_v a_o faith_n which_o he_o himself_o have_v give_v that_o be_v indeed_o of_o the_o true_a and_o excellent_a alloy_n for_o he_o know_v at_o the_o very_a first_o he_o see_v many_o that_o pretend_v to_o believe_v and_o that_o think_v they_o believe_v but_o he_o know_v very_o well_o where_o their_o faith_n be_v wrong_a and_o where_o it_o lose_v that_o great_a prize_n that_o pearl_n of_o price_n that_o it_o be_v to_o obtain_v he_o himself_o not_o commit_v or_o give_v himself_o know_v a_o true_a action_n of_o faith_n in_o receive_v he_o will_v not_o follow_v for_o that_o be_v the_o first_o action_n of_o faith_n to_o receive_v christ_n give_v himself_o the_o second_o kind_n of_o the_o action_n of_o faith_n they_o be_v those_o that_o though_o they_o be_v not_o immediate_o as_o the_o first_o act_n of_o take_v of_o christ_n by_o faith_n yet_o they_o immediate_o result_v and_o rise_v up_o when_o any_o man_n have_v take_v christ_n there_o be_v some_o action_n that_o do_v immediate_o result_v and_o arise_v they_o bear_v the_o hue_n they_o carry_v the_o complexion_n they_o have_v upon_o they_o the_o lineament_n of_o the_o death_n of_o the_o die_v of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n they_o have_v such_o peculiar_a respect_n to_o his_o blood_n to_o his_o death_n to_o his_o redemption_n i_o will_v instance_n in_o two_o of_o these_o we_o find_v in_o scripture-saint_n and_o then_o i_o shall_v draw_v out_o in_o brief_a expression_n the_o general_a action_n of_o christian_n according_a to_o their_o pattern_n the_o first_o be_v that_o in_o the_o 11_o chapter_n of_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n it_o be_v say_v of_o moses_n v._o 28._o through_o faith_n he_o keep_v the_o passover_n and_o the_o sprinkle_n of_o blood_n lest_o he_o that_o destroy_v the_o first_o bear_v shall_v touch_v they_o this_o he_o do_v by_o faith_n god_n command_v he_o indeed_o to_o keep_v the_o passover_n but_o moses_n have_v a_o eye_n upon_o the_o redemption_n of_o christ_n in_o it_o and_o by_o faith_n he_o keep_v the_o passover_n so_o every_o act_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o which_o it_o make_v recourse_n to_o christ_n upon_o all_o occasion_n after_o it_o have_v take_v he_o it_o be_v like_o keep_v the_o passover_n every_o act_n i_o say_v wherein_o we_o do_v especial_o depend_v upon_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o make_v close_a recourse_n and_o application_n to_o it_o it_o be_v a_o action_n result_v from_o true_a save_v justify_v faith_n that_o true_a faith_n by_o which_o we_o be_v save_v and_o justify_v for_o so_o indeed_o i_o observe_v though_o we_o call_v it_o justify_v faith_n the_o scripture_n never_o call_v it_o so_o but_o the_o faith_n by_o which_o we_o be_v justify_v to_o make_v good_a that_o point_n that_o i_o have_v always_o press_v upon_o you_o that_o we_o be_v not_o justify_v by_o faith_n as_o a_o act_n but_o we_o be_v justify_v only_o as_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v give_v to_o it_o for_o that_o righteousness_n alone_o be_v our_o justification_n but_o this_o i_o say_v there_o be_v act_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o which_o it_o do_v make_v recourse_n to_o christ_n and_o to_o his_o blood_n another_o example_n and_o i_o choose_v to_o give_v it_o you_o because_o it_o be_v seat_v in_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n james_n that_o be_v make_v the_o great_a objection_n against_o the_o faith_n by_o which_o we_o be_v justify_v through_o the_o righteousness_n and_o propitiation_n of_o christ_n james_n 2._o 21._o say_v the_o apostle_n be_v not_o abraham_n our_o father_n justify_v by_o work_n when_o he_o have_v offer_v isaac_n his_o son_n upon_o the_o altar_n see_v thou_o how_o faith_n wrought_v with_o his_o work_n and_o by_o work_n be_v faith_n make_v perfect_a now_o this_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o i_o observe_v to_o you_o the_o offer_v of_o isaac_n it_o be_v as_o great_a a_o conversant_a act_n about_o the_o death_n blood_n and_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n as_o any_o can_v possible_o be_v represent_v in_o scripture_n to_o we_o for_o there_o can_v not_o be_v a_o great_a type_n and_o representation_n of_o the_o father_n give_v his_o son_n to_o die_v for_o sinner_n and_o to_o become_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o they_o than_o that_o of_o abraham_n the_o affectionate_a father_n of_o isaac_n offer_v up_o his_o son_n isaac_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n use_v this_o for_o a_o argument_n of_o a_o work_a faith_n this_o be_v a_o work_n of_o faith_n indeed_o it_o be_v not_o a_o work_n of_o faith_n take_v christ_n but_o it_o be_v a_o work_n of_o faith_n conversant_a about_o the_o death_n and_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n be_v express_v in_o it_o see_v thou_o how_o faith_n wrought_v with_o his_o work_n this_o be_v a_o great_a act_n in_o which_o faith_n wrought_v mighty_o when_o abraham_n offer_v up_o isaac_n but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o proper_o a_o work_n of_o moral_a obedience_n as_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n in_o christ_n if_o we_o consider_v the_o greatness_n and_o excellency_n of_o it_o and_o the_o eye_n it_o have_v to_o christ_n though_o it_o be_v a_o high_a act_n of_o obedience_n of_o self_n resigning_n also_o so_o i_o say_v there_o be_v many_o act_n which_o be_v

conversant_a about_o take_v christ_n and_o yet_o be_v not_o take_v he_o as_o when_o a_o man_n lay_v himself_o low_a before_o christ_n after_o his_o take_v christ_n and_o pl●…es_v his_o whole_a hope_n and_o expectation_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n when_o man_n in_o prayer_n lift_v up_o his_o soul_n to_o god_n through_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o jesus_n christ_n here_o be_v a_o act_n of_o faith_n now_o these_o act_n of_o faith_n they_o be_v not_o take_v of_o christ_n but_o they_o be_v conversant_a about_o jesus_n christ_n and_o his_o redemption_n take_v and_o many_o such_o there_o be_v the_o three_o kind_n of_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n be_v when_o faith_n go_v out_o into_o the_o noble_a and_o heroic_a act_n that_o be_v more_o extraordinary_a in_o believer_n like_v to_o the_o die_v of_o christ_n and_o the_o way_n of_o justify_v sinner_n that_o god_n have_v take_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n when_o they_o in_o their_o kind_n and_o in_o their_o degree_n bear_v a_o image_n of_o that_o extraordinary_a these_o i_o look_v upon_o to_o be_v the_o work_v peculiarly_a of_o faith_n so_o in_o the_o 2d_o of_o james_n abraham_n offer_v isaac_n which_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a act_n if_o you_o look_v upon_o it_o in_o the_o way_n of_o obedience_n and_o such_o a_o one_o as_o can_v not_o be_v account_v for_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n or_o standard_n of_o reason_n what!_o shall_v abraham_n receive_v from_o god_n a_o only_a son_n and_o then_o go_v and_o sacrifice_v he_o to_o god_n and_o be_v satisfy_v and_o resign_v in_o do_v of_o it_o o_o how_o be_v this_o above_o the_o power_n beyond_o the_o compass_n of_o all_o the_o ordinary_a action_n of_o man_n any_o one_o that_o shall_v have_v come_v to_o look_v upon_o he_o and_o see_v he_o prepare_v to_o do_v it_o will_v think_v he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v obedient_a to_o god_n that_o they_o will_v look_v upon_o he_o as_o a_o most_o frenzick_n distract_v man_n that_o have_v lose_v all_o understanding_n and_o all_o the_o affection_n of_o a_o father_n or_o as_o a_o cruel_a and_o wicked_a person_n but_o faith_n fetch_v its_o compass_n round_o about_o the_o whole_a consideration_n of_o the_o thing_n and_o transcend_v all_o the_o ordinary_a rule_n by_o which_o man_n proceed_v in_o their_o action_n as_o see_v god_n give_v christ_n his_o only_a son_n in_o it_o and_o so_o rahab_n she_o be_v justify_v by_o send_v the_o spy_n another_o way_n this_o be_v a_o great_a act_n of_o faith_n and_o yet_o if_o it_o be_v look_v upon_o according_a as_o i_o have_v several_a time_n mention_v by_o the_o eye_n of_o reason_n it_o be_v a_o berray_v she_o own_o country_n therefore_o i_o say_v extraordinary_a and_o unaccountable_a act_n many_o time_n god_n call_v his_o servant_n to_o by_o faith_n when_o man_n come_v to_o suffer_v and_o to_o lose_v their_o estate_n to_o lose_v all_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o their_o family_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o a_o principle_n of_o the_o gospel_n either_o in_o truth_n of_o doctrine_n or_o in_o purity_n of_o worship_n a_o man_n will_v be_v ready_a to_o think_v as_o of_o the_o martyr_n in_o queen_n mary_n day_n they_o do_v not_o understand_v at_o all_o what_o they_o do_v when_o they_o lay_v down_o their_o life_n upon_o the_o denial_n of_o that_o idolatrous_a principle_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v himself_o bodily_a as_o they_o understand_v it_o in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o so_o all_o along_o in_o heb._n 11._o the_o heroic_a action_n of_o christian_n of_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n be_v instance_a in_o as_o i_o have_v instance_a heretofore_o to_o you_o in_o moses_n man_n will_v have_v think_v he_o one_o of_o the_o foolish_a and_o soft_a man_n in_o the_o world_n when_o he_o shall_v refuse_v to_o be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o pharaoh_n daughter_n v._o 28._o and_o that_o he_o shall_v esteem_v the_o reproach_n of_o christ_n great_a riches_n than_o the_o treasure_n of_o egypt_n these_o be_v extraordinary_a act_n of_o faith_n as_o i_o have_v say_v to_o you_o if_o it_o have_v be_v any_o of_o our_o case_n at_o this_o day_n to_o have_v refuse_v to_o be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o pharaoh_n daughter_n how_o many_o appearance_n plausible_a appearance_n of_o reason_n shall_v we_o have_v to_o take_v up_o as_o that_o we_o may_v be_v serviceable_a to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n that_o we_o may_v have_v do_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o good_a to_o the_o oppress_a afflict_a israel_n but_o moses_n faith_n it_o fetch_v a_o compass_n as_o i_o say_v far_o above_o all_o the_o general_a rule_n man_n go_v by_o and_o see_v that_o it_o be_v his_o duty_n to_o do_v so_o and_o to_o esteem_v the_o reproach_n of_o christ_n great_a riches_n than_o the_o treasure_n of_o egypt_n now_o when_o god_n do_v lift_v up_o his_o servant_n and_o enlarge_v they_o beyond_o the_o line_n of_o all_o the_o reason_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n therein_o be_v peculiar_o the_o action_n of_o faith_n the_o great_a work_n be_v of_o faith_n be_v find_v there_o so_o there_o be_v many_o case_n in_o which_o he_o work_v so_o now_o in_o the_o soul_n of_o his_o people_n the_o four_o and_o last_o kind_n of_o the_o action_n of_o faith_n be_v in_o walk_v by_o those_o general_n agree_v rule_n of_o holiness_n according_a to_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n which_o be_v give_v we_o in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n both_o of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n they_o be_v true_o to_o be_v call_v the_o work_n of_o faith_n also_o when_o man_n walk_v in_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n purify_n themselves_o even_o as_o god_n be_v pure_a be_v holy_a in_o all_o manner_n of_o conversation_n these_o be_v proper_o the_o work_n and_o action_n of_o faith_n also_o so_o i_o have_v represent_v they_o to_o you_o each_o in_o their_o degree_n the_o first_o great_a act_n of_o faith_n be_v to_o unite_v with_o christ_n and_o he_o that_o miss_v in_o that_o miss_v in_o all_o the_o rest_n the_o second_o kind_n be_v of_o those_o act_n that_o result_n from_o our_o continual_a application_n to_o christ_n and_o his_o blood_n and_o then_o three_o the_o great_a and_o extraordinary_a action_n god_n call_v his_o servant_n to_o when_o all_o the_o world_n think_v they_o mad_a and_o obstinate_a and_o the_o most_o unreasonable_a man_n in_o the_o world_n to_o do_v so_o and_o yet_o faith_n by_o that_o compass_n that_o be_v give_v to_o it_o it_o see_v clear_o through_o all_o and_o then_o last_o those_o state_v rule_n of_o holiness_n i_o need_v not_o show_v because_o every_o one_o know_v the_o proper_a work_n of_o faith_n be_v guide_v thereby_o also_o and_o the_o power_n flow_v from_o jesus_n christ_n by_o faith_n i_o come_v therefore_o to_o the_o second_o thing_n and_o that_o be_v the_o great_a interest_n jesus_n christ_n have_v in_o all_o the_o great_a work_n of_o faith_n and_o that_o true_o christ_n be_v the_o author_n as_o well_o as_o finisher_n as_o the_o apostle_n call_v he_o heb._n 12._o 2._o after_o he_o have_v set_v forth_o all_o the_o great_a example_n have_v so_o great_a a_o cloud_n of_o witness_n v._n 1._o let_v we_o lay_v aside_o every_o weight_n etc._n etc._n look_v unto_o jesus_n the_o author_n and_o finisher_n of_o our_o faith_n all_o the_o action_n of_o faith_n they_o be_v by_o jesus_n christ_n the_o alpha_n and_o the_o omega_n of_o all_o the_o beginning_n and_o the_o end_n of_o all_o and_o that_o i_o will_v brief_o represent_v to_o you_o in_o these_o four_o thing_n the_o first_o be_v this_o because_o he_o have_v purchase_v these_o action_n of_o faith_n for_o believer_n or_o else_o they_o can_v never_o have_v do_v they_o if_o he_o have_v not_o purchase_v that_o they_o shall_v do_v they_o we_o indeed_o be_v call_v to_o all_o the_o action_n of_o faith_n as_o our_o duty_n i_o acknowledge_v it_o but_o it_o be_v jesus_n christ_n that_o have_v redeem_a we_o to_o those_o holy_a action_n or_o else_o we_o can_v never_o have_v do_v they_o there_o be_v abundant_a scripture_n that_o prove_v this_o plain_o to_o you_o the_o second_o chap._n of_o the_o epist_n to_z titus_n for_o i_o can_v but_o just_a name_n and_o intimate_v they_o to_o you_o tit._n 2._o 14._o say_v the_o apostle_n who_o give_v himself_o for_o we_o that_o he_o may_v redeem_v we_o from_o all_o iniquity_n and_o purify_v unto_o himself_o a_o peculiar_a people_n zealous_a of_o good_a work_n all_o the_o good_a work_n of_o faith_n there_o be_v a_o purchase_n of_o christ_n upon_o they_o or_o else_o they_o can_v never_o have_v be_v perform_v by_o any_o of_o his_o saint_n and_o so_o in_o the_o 1_o pet._n 1._o 18._o you_o be_v redeem_v from_o a_o vain_a conversation_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o vain_a conversation_n receive_v by_o tradition_n from_o your_o father_n the_o tradition_n of_o
