that_o they_o shall_v fare_v the_o better_a for_o he_o nay_o they_o know_v that_o heshall_n one_o day_n condemn_v they_o and_o therefore_o their_o faith_n do_v not_o comfort_v they_o but_o make_v

how_o may_v a_o man_n know_v that_o he_o have_v true_a faith_n a._n two_o way_n by_o the_o nature_n of_o faith_n and_o by_o the_o effect_n and_o fruit_n of_o it_o q._n how_o may_v a_o man_n know_v it_o by_o the_o nature_n of_o faith_n a._n if_o a_o man_n feel_v himself_o inward_o persuade_v in_o his_o heart_n that_o god_n love_v he_o in_o christ_n and_o because_o he_o love_v he_o will_v provide_v he_o of_o all_o thing_n needful_a both_o for_o this_o life_n and_o for_o the_o life_n to_o come_v so_o that_o we_o run_v not_o out_o to_o any_o wicked_a and_o unlawful_a mean_n but_o rest_v ourselves_o on_o god_n with_o contentment_n in_o all_o estate_n this_o be_v a_o sure_a note_n that_o his_o faith_n be_v true_a job_n 13._o 15._o q._n how_o may_v a_o man_n know_v it_o by_o the_o
