recommend_v his_o glory_n and_o perfection_n what_o nature_n will_v teach_v we_o so_o great_a a_o darling_n of_o she_o the_o privado_n to_o all_o her_o mystery_n can_v be_v ignorant_a of_o but_o in_o my_o judgement_n he_o fetch_v a_o huge_a blow_n to_o do_v nothing_o we_o believe_v god_n be_v perfect_o happy_a from_o all_o eternity_n in_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o his_o own_o self_n and_o infinite_a perfection_n and_o need_v not_o have_v recommend_v his_o glory_n to_o his_o creature_n he_o make_v not_o the_o world_n because_o he_o need_v it_o but_o by_o our_o author_n good_a leave_n or_o without_o it_o suppose_v that_o god_n will_v recommend_v his_o glory_n he_o must_v have_v something_o out_o of_o himself_o to_o which_o he_o may_v recommend_v it_o and_o on_o like_a supposition_n that_o he_o will_v manifest_a his_o pardon_v grace_n and_o mercy_n there_o must_v be_v a_o fit_a object_n capable_a of_o that_o grace_n and_o mercy_n unless_o our_o author_n from_o his_o too_o much_o

to_o need_v sin_n and_o misery_n to_o recommend_v some_o of_o his_o perfection_n i_o be_o sure_a suppose_v sin_n and_o misery_n to_o exist_v god_n have_v recommend_v his_o son_n to_o we_o in_o that_o

be_v sure_a courteous_a reader_n you_o do_v not_o mistake_v for_o there_o be_v some_o weighty_a controversy_n depend_v upon_o it_o which_o the_o coffee-house_n and_o the_o inch_n of_o candle_n must_v

their_o sin_n and_o misery_n nature_n be_v a_o excellent_a school_n mistress_n i_o see_v and_o this_o be_v one_o of_o her_o high_a mystery_n that_o god_n delight_v in_o obedience_n more_o than_o sin_n but_o what_o now_o if_o sin_n and_o disobedience_n have_v get_v in_o for_o my_o part_n i_o question_v whether_o nature_n will_v teach_v he_o that_o god_n have_v rather_o much_o rather_o or_o however_o how_o much_o rather_o he_o have_v be_v more_o glorious_a in_o exact_v one_o attribute_n than_o another_o or_o whether_o god_n may_v not_o equal_o glorify_v himself_o in_o the_o execution_n of_o his_o

in_o these_o he_o know_v how_o to_o weigh_v which_o of_o god_n attribute_n weigh_v heavy_a and_o that_o he_o can_v do_v for_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o pardon_v mercy_n and_o vindictive_a justice_n be_v but_o secondary_a attribute_n what_o warrant_v he_o have_v to_o marshal_v god_n attribute_n in_o this_o order_n i_o dare_v not_o inquire_v which_o be_v first_o rate_n which_o second_o rate_n attribute_n be_v a_o nice_a enquiry_n but_o i_o expect_v a_o dish_n of_o colewort_n before_o he_o have_v do_v for_o these_o have_v be_v serve_v up_o to_o we_o in_o the_o racovian_a catechism_n let_v

from_o the_o different_a object_n and_o motive_n of_o it_o the_o apostle_n take_v notice_n of_o two_o kind_n of_o faith_n in_o this_o chapter_n hebr._n 11._o and_o faith_n in_o christ_n make_v a_o

accurateness_n in_o divinity_n for_o 1._o what_o a_o mad_a way_n be_v this_o to_o distinguish_v faith_n into_o its_o several_a kind_n and_o sort_n from_o the_o multiplicity_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o it_o believe_v for_o at_o this_o rate_n he_o can_v have_v mint_v not_o three_o only_a or_o threescore_o but_o three_o hundred_o sort_n and_o kind_n of_o faith_n the_o different_a sort_n or_o kind_n of_o faith_n result_v say_v he_o from_o the_o different_a object_n and_o motive_n of_o it_o but_o say_v i_o in_o his_o sense_n the_o object_n and_o motive_n of_o faith_n be_v innumerable_a and_o therefore_o the_o sort_n and_o kind_n of_o faith_n be_v innumerable_a also_o the_o object_n of_o faith_n say_v he_o must_v be_v unseen_a thing_n the_o be_v or_o providence_n of_o god_n or_o a_o future_a state_n something_o pass_v or_o to_o come_v etc._n etc._n now_o according_a to_o this_o doctrine_n we_o must_v believe_v the_o be_v of_o god_n with_o one_o sort_n of_o faith_n his_o providence_n with_o another_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n with_o one_o kind_n of_o faith_n its_o dissolution_n with_o another_o heaven_n with_o one_o kind_n of_o faith_n hell_n with_o another_o thing_n pass_v with_o one_o kind_n thing_n to_o come_v with_o another_o prophecy_n with_o one_o kind_n of_o faith_n promise_v with_o another_o and_o then_o for_o the_o motive_n of_o faith_n they_o be_v various_a the_o power_n of_o god_n the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n our_o experience_n of_o god_n the_o goodness_n of_o god_n so_o when_o i_o believe_v any_o thing_n and_o take_v the_o power_n of_o god_n able_a to_o accomplish_v it_o for_o my_o motive_n i_o believe_v it_o with_o a_o faith_n of_o another_o kind_n from_o that_o whereby_o i_o believe_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o take_v the_o goodness_n of_o god_n for_o my_o motive_n and_o now_o there_o be_v a_o foundation_n lay_v for_o one_o of_o his_o plain_a demonstration_n that_o abraham_n faith_n differ_v toto_fw-la genere_fw-la from_o paul_n because_o abraham_n in_o believe_v take_v his_o encouragement_n from_o the_o faithfulness_n of_o he_o that_o have_v promise_v and_o paul_n from_o his_o ability_n to_o keep_v what_o he_o have_v commit_v unto_o he_o so_o that_o i_o think_v i_o have_v not_o over-shot_a myself_o in_o say_v that_o he_o may_v upon_o these_o principle_n coin_n as_o many_o several_a sort_n and_o distinct_a kind_n of_o justify_v faith_n as_o he_o can_v possible_o spend_v in_o seven_o year_n time_n and_o as_o he_o grow_v out_o of_o sort_n he_o may_v stamp_v as_o many_o more_o 2._o i_o be_o not_o satisfy_v that_o the_o apostle_n mention_n two_o and_o but_o just_a two_o sort_n of_o justify_v faith_n in_o this_o chapter_n for_o the_o apostle_n mention_n one_o and_o the_o same_o faith_n by_o faith_n we_o believe_v the_o world_n be_v create_v by_o faith_n abel_n sacrifice_v by_o faith_n enoch_n walk_v with_o god_n by_o faith_n the_o elder_n obtain_v a_o good_a report_n by_o faith_n noah_n take_v god_n warning_n by_o faith_n sarah_n conceive_v by_o faith_n abraham_n offer_v up_o isaac_n etc._n etc._n but_o if_o these_o faith_n be_v of_o several_a sort_n and_o kind_n the_o apostle_n can_v not_o manage_v his_o argument_n with_o consistency_n nor_o shall_v he_o so_o insensible_o have_v pass_v from_o one_o sort_n of_o faith_n to_o another_o without_o fair_a warning_n that_o he_o have_v no_o plot_n upon_o his_o reader_n imbecility_n 3._o it_o be_v full_a as_o easy_a to_o make_v all_o the_o sort_n of_o faith_n appear_v in_o the_o chapter_n as_o two_o if_o it_o have_v please_v the_o painter_n for_o 1._o here_o be_v evident_o the_o faith_n of_o christian_n vers_fw-la 3._o through_o faith_n we_o understand_v we_o christians_o that_o the_o world_n be_v frame_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n 2._o there_o be_v enoch_n and_o abel_n faith_n which_o our_o author_n allot_v for_o a_o second_o kind_n of_o faith_n and_o then_o 3._o the_o faith_n of_o noah_n abraham_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n and_o there_o be_v constitute_v the_o three_o sort_n o●…_n faith_n 4._o much_o less_o be_o i_o satisfy_v that_o faith_n in_o christ_n make_v a_o three_o kind_n of_o justify_v faith_n distinct_a from_o the_o other_o two_o faith_n be_v but_o one_o the_o reason_n into_o which_o our_o faith_n be_v ultimate_o resolve_v be_v but_o one_o the_o mean_a whereby_o we_o believe_v in_o god_n be_v but_o one_o even_o jesus_n christ_n by_o who_o we_o believe_v in_o god_n but_o the_o thing_n the_o good_a thing_n propound_v in_o the_o promise_n be_v infinite_a so_o that_o i_o doubt_v not_o when_o any_o necessity_n shall_v urge_v he_o he_o can_v reduce_v all_o these_o three_o sort_n of_o faith_n into_o one_o again_o by_o synaeresis_fw-la or_o split_v any_o one_o of_o they_o into_o a_o couple_n by_o a_o diaeresis_fw-la but_o now_o let_v we_o look_v into_o his_o three_o sort_n of_o faith_n 1._o §_o the_o first_o say_v he_o we_o may_v call_v a_o natural_a faith_n i_o confess_v he_o may_v call_v thing_n what_o he_o please_v only_o let_v he_o be_v sure_a he_o do_v not_o miscall_v they_o the_o rather_o because_o he_o have_v not_o adam_n faculty_n to_o make_v inspection_n into_o their_o nature_n but_o what_o be_v this_o natural_a faith_n a_o belief_n say_v he_o of_o the_o principle_n of_o natural_a religion_n which_o be_v found_v on_o natural_a demonstration_n and_o moral_a argument_n as_o that_o god_n be_v and_o that_o hei_n a_o rewarder_n of_o they_o that_o diligent_o seek_v he_o but_o i_o be_o still_o of_o the_o same_o mind_n that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n nor_o ever_o be_v as_o a_o religion_n of_o sinner_n whereby_o they_o can_v draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n and_o worship_v he_o with_o acceptation_n but_o what_o suppose_v divine_a revelation_n as_o the_o mean_n of_o manifestation_n and_o a_o redeemer_n as_o the_o medium_n of_o reconciliation_n it_o be_v own_v that_o this_o be_v a_o principle_n of_o all_o religion_n that_o god_n be_v and_o that_o he_o be_v a_o rewarder_n of_o they_o that_o diligent_o seek_v he_o but_o there_o must_v be_v somewhat_o more_o than_o this_o namely_o ability_n and_o strength_n from_o god_n that_o we_o may_v diligent_o seek_v he_o and_o a_o mediator_n through_o who_o we_o may_v seek_v he_o with_o he_o
