first_o be_v this_o every_o special_a faith_n must_v have_v a_o special_a word_n of_o god_n for_o his_o ground_n but_o there_o be_v no_o special_a word_n that_o thy_o sin_n or_o my_o sin_n be_v forgive_v by_o christ_n therefore_o there_o be_v no_o special_a faith_n ans._n we_o have_v that_o which_o in_o force_n and_o value_n be_v equivalent_a to_o a_o special_a word_n namely_o a_o general_a promise_n with_o a_o commandment_n to_o apply_v the_o say_a promise_n to_o ourselves_o second_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o word_n and_o promise_n of_o god_n general_o propound_v in_o scripture_n be_v make_v particular_a in_o the_o public_a ministry_n in_o which_o when_o the_o word_n be_v preach_v to_o any_o people_n god_n reveal_v two_o thing_n unto_o they_o one_o that_o his_o will_n be_v to_o save_v they_o by_o christ_n the_o other_o that_o his_o will_n be_v that_o man_n shall_v believe_v in_o christ._n and_o the_o word_n thus_o apply_v in_o the_o public_a ministry_n in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o a_o angel_n shall_v particular_o speak_v unto_o we_o from_o heaven_n the_o second_o argument_n special_a faith_n say_v they_o be_v absurd_a because_o by_o it_o a_o sinner_n must_v believe_v the_o pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n before_o he_o have_v it_o in_o as_o much_o as_o faith_n be_v the_o mean_n to_o obtain_v pardon_n ans._n the_o give_v and_o the_o receive_n of_o pardon_n and_o faith_n be_v both_o at_o one_o moment_n of_o time_n for_o when_o god_n give_v the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n at_o the_o same_o instant_n he_o cause_v man_n to_o receive_v the_o same_o pardon_n by_o faith_n for_o order_v of_o nature_n faith_n go_v before_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o pardon_n because_o faith_n be_v give_v to_o they_o that_o be_v to_o be_v ingraft_v into_o christ_n and_o pardon_v to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n for_o time_n it_o do_v not_o and_o therefore_o this_o second_o argument_n be_v absurd_a the_o three_o argument_n the_o full_a certainty_n and_o persuasion_n of_o god_n mercy_n in_o christ_n follow_v good_a conscience_n and_o good_a work_n and_o therefore_o faith_n follow_v after_o justification_n ans._n there_o be_v two_o degree_n of_o faith_n a_o weak_a faith_n and_o a_o strong_a faith_n a_o weak_a faith_n be_v that_o against_o which_o doubt_v much_o prevail_v in_o
by_o work_n of_o mercy_n tit._n 2._o 5._o it_o may_v be_v object_v that_o there_o be_v a_o cooperation_n of_o work_n and_o faith_n i_o be_o 2._o 21._o i_o answer_v that_o this_o cooperation_n be_v not_o in_o the_o act_n of_o justification_n nor_o in_o the_o work_n of_o our_o salvation_n but_o in_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o sincerity_n of_o our_o faith_n without_o hypocrisy_n and_o for_o the_o declaration_n and_o approbation_n of_o this_o faith_n and_o work_v joint_o concur_v here_o than_o we_o see_v it_o be_v a_o pestilent_a and_o damnable_a doctrine_n of_o the_o papist_n when_o they_o teach_v justification_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n let_v we_o here_o be_v warn_v to_o take_v heed_n of_o it_o the_o four_o point_n be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o our_o justification_n and_o that_o be_v christ._n here_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v what_o be_v that_o thing_n in_o christ_n by_o and_o for_o which_o we_o be_v justify_v i_o answer_v the_o
