which_o be_v these_o four_o thing_n chief_o 1._o that_o sanctification_n faith_n etc._n etc._n may_v be_v no_o evidence_n at_o all_o to_o a_o christian_a of_o a_o good_a estate_n for_o this_o they_o say_v be_v a_o doubtful_a evidence_n and_o a_o unsettle_a way_n of_o assurance_n because_o they_o will_v hereby_o be_v as_o bone_n out_o of_o joint_n in_o and_o out_o humble_v to_o day_n and_o then_o comfort_v but_o hard-hearted_a to_o morrow_n and_o then_o at_o a_o loss_n whereas_o to_o see_v one_o self_n a_o sinner_n that_o be_v a_o constant_a evidence_n for_o we_o be_v always_o sinner_n and_o the_o gospel_n proclaim_v peace_n to_o sinner_n as_o sinner_n 2._o that_o so_o man_n may_v keep_v their_o lust_n and_o sin_n and_o yet_o keep_v their_o peace_n too_o for_o if_o peace_n be_v the_o portion_n of_o a_o man_n under_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n and_o satan_n look_v then_o as_o he_o may_v have_v it_o why_o may_v he_o not_o keep_v it_o upon_o the_o same_o term_n and_o therefore_o w._n c._n say_v that_o if_o conscience_n object_n thou_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n perhaps_o true_o yet_o a_o hypocrite_n be_v but_o a_o sinner_n and_o god_n love_n belong_v to_o sinner_n as_o sinner_n and_o if_o this_o be_v thus_o what_o do_v this_o doctrine_n aim_v at_o but_o to_o reconcile_v god_n and_o belial_n christ_n and_o mammon_n not_o only_o to_o open_v the_o door_n to_o all_o manner_n of_o wickedness_n but_o to_o comfort_v man_n therein_o 3._o that_o so_o he_o may_v bring_v man_n in_o time_n purposely_o to_o sin_v the_o more_o free_o that_o so_o they_o may_v have_v the_o clear_a evidence_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n for_o if_o god_n love_v be_v reveal_v to_o sinner_n as_o sinner_n then_o the_o more_o sinful_a the_o more_o clear_a evidence_n he_o have_v of_o god_n love_n
