little_a of_o your_o heart_n or_o case_n deal_v not_o with_o such_o as_o resolve_v to_o humour_v you_o 4._o they_o must_v be_v man_n of_o fidelity_n and_o well_o try_v to_o be_v such_o that_o you_o may_v trust_v they_o with_o those_o secret_n which_o you_o be_v call_v to_o reveal_v 5._o they_o must_v be_v man_n of_o great_a stayedness_n and_o wisdom_n that_o they_o may_v neither_o rash_o pass_v

your_o secret_n and_o serve_v themselves_o deep_a into_o your_o private_a thought_n and_o way_n than_o be_v meet_v yet_o a_o compassionate_a minister_n when_o he_o see_v that_o poor_a christian_n do_v endanger_v themselves_o by_o keep_v secret_a their_o trouble_n or_o else_o that_o they_o hazard_v themselves_o by_o hide_v the_o great_a of_o their_o sin_n like_o achan_n saul_n or_o ananias_n and_o

that_o free_a grace_n which_o they_o so_o much_o talk_v of_o and_o the_o great_a dishonorer_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n who_o they_o seem_v so_o high_o to_o extol_v they_o be_v those_o mountebank_n and_o quacksalver_n that_o delude_v the_o world_n by_o vain_a ostentation_n and_o kill_v more_o than_o they_o well_o cure_n 2._o next_o to_o they_o take_v heed_n of_o the_o papist_n who_o will_v go_v to_o rome_n to_o saint_n to_o angel_n to_o merit_n to_o the_o most_o carnal_a delusory_a mean_n for_o comfort_n when_o they_o shall_v go_v to_o scripture_n and_o to_o heaven_n for_o it_o and_o then_o take_v heed_n that_o you_o fall_v not_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o separate_a divider_n of_o christ_n church_n the_o most_o notorious_a and_o dangerous_a of_o they_o be_v of_o these_o three_o sort_n 1._o the_o last_o mention_v the_o papist_n they_o be_v the_o most_o notorious_a schismatic_n and_o separatist_n that_o ever_o god_n church_n do_v know_v on_o earth_n for_o my_o part_n i_o think_v their_o schism_n be_v more_o dangerous_a and_o wicked_a then_o the_o rest_n of_o their_o false_a doctrine_n the_o unmerciful_a proud_a self-seeking_a wretch_n will_v like_v the_o donatist_n make_v we_o believe_v that_o god_n have_v no_o true_a church_n on_o earth_n but_o they_o and_o that_o all_o the_o christian_n in_o ethiopia_n asia_n germany_n hungary_n france_n england_n scotland_n

church_n nor_o ever_o be_v thus_o do_v they_o separate_v from_o all_o the_o church_n on_o earth_n and_o confine_v all_o religion_n and_o salvation_n to_o themselves_o who_o so_o notorious_o depart_v from_o christ_n way_n of_o salvation_n indeed_o the_o extreme_a diligence_n that_o they_o use_v in_o visit_v the_o sick_a and_o solicit_v all_o man_n to_o their_o church_n and_o way_n be_v plain_o to_o get_v themselves_o follower_n and_o they_o be_v everywhere_o more_o industrious_a to_o enlarge_v the_o pope_n kingdom_n than_o christ_n so_o far_o be_v they_o from_o study_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n which_o they_o so_o much_o talk_v of_o that_o they_o will_v admit_v none_o to_o be_v of_o that_o church_n nor_o to_o be_v save_v but_o their_o own_o party_n as_o if_o indeed_o the_o pope_n have_v the_o key_n of_o heaven_n indeed_o they_o be_v the_o most_o impudent_a sectary_n and_o schismatic_n on_o earth_n 2._o the_o next_o to_o they_o be_v the_o anabaptist_n who_o doctrine_n be_v not_o in_o itself_o so_o dangerous_a as_o their_o schism_n and_o gather_a disciple_n so_o zealous_o to_o themselves_o and_o so_o strange_a a_o curse_n of_o god_n have_v follow_v

earth_n yet_o do_v the_o judicious_a see_v god_n heavy_a judgement_n upon_o they_o in_o their_o congregation_n and_o conversation_n 3._o last_o meddle_v not_o with_o those_o common_o call_v

do_v from_o we_o and_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o they_o nor_o acknowledge_v they_o christian_n but_o seek_v not_o their_o advice_n and_o make_v they_o not_o of_o your_o counsel_n you_o will_v do_v as_o one_o that_o go_v to_o a_o physician_n that_o have_v the_o plague_n to_o be_v cure_v of_o a_o cut_a finger_n if_o you_o go_v for_o your_o comfort_n to_o any_o of_o these_o seducer_n but_o if_o you_o have_v a_o pastor_n that_o be_v sound_a in_o the_o main_a doctrine_n of_o religion_n and_o be_v studious_a of_o the_o unity_n and_o peace_n of_o the_o church_n such_o a_o man_n you_o may_v use_v though_o in_o many_o thing_n mistake_v for_o he_o will_v not_o seek_v to_o make_v a_o prey_n of_o you_o by_o draw_v you_o to_o his_o party_n let_v he_o be_v lutheran_n calvinist_n arminian_n episcopal_n independent_a or_o presbyterian_a so_o he_o be_v sound_a in_o the_o main_a and_o free_a from_o division_n thus_o i_o have_v show_v you_o the_o qualification_n of_o these_o man_n that_o

understand_v the_o true_a nature_n of_o assurance_n faith_n doubt_v and_o desperation_n i_o will_v have_v you_o observe_v this_o that_o god_n do_v not_o command_v every_o man_n nor_o proper_o any_o man_n ordinary_o by_o his_o word_n to_o bel●eve_v that_o his_o sin_n be_v forgive_v and_o himself_o be_v justify_v adopt_a and_o shall_v be_v save_v but_o he_o have_v prescribe_v a_o way_n by_o which_o they_o may_v attain_v to_o assurance_n of_o these_o in_o which_o way_n it_o be_v man_n duty_n to_o seek_v it_o so_o that_o our_o assurance_n be_v not_o proper_o that_o which_o be_v call_v a_o certainty_n of_o belief_n i_o have_v say_v enough_o for_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o proposition_n in_o the_o three_o part_n of_o my_o book_n of_o rest_n chap._n 1●_n whither_o i_o must_v refer_v you_o but_o there_o be_v more_o to_o be_v say_v yet_o for_o the_o application_n of_o it_o but_o first_o i_o must_v brief_o tell_v you_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n 1._o god_n command_v we_o all_o to_o believe_v wicked_a and_o godly_a that_o our_o sin_n be_v make_v pardonable_a by_o the_o sufficient_a satisfaction_n of_o christ_n for_o they_o and_o that_o god_n be_v very_o merciful_a and_o ready_a to_o forgive_v and_o that_o he_o have_v conditional_o forgive_v we_o all_o in_o the_o new_a covenant_n make_v a_o deed_n of_o gift_n of_o christ_n and_o pardon_n and_o life_n in_o he_o to_o all_o on_o condition_n they_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o accept_v what_o be_v give_v 2._o but_o no_o man_n be_v command_v to_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v actual_o forgive_v 3._o therefore_o i_o say_v our_o assurance_n be_v not_o strict_o to_o be_v call_v belief_n or_o a_o certainty_n of_o belief_n for_o it_o be_v only_o our_o certain_a belief_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o we_o take_v on_o the_o mere_a credit_n of_o the_o witness_a or_o revealer_n which_o we_o call_v certainty_n of_o faith_n indeed_o we_o common_o in_o english_a use_n the_o word_n belief_n to_o express_v any_o confident_a but_o uncertain_a opinion_n or_o persuasion_n and_o if_o any_o will_v so_o take_v it_o than_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o our_o assurance_n be_v a_o belief_n but_o it_o be_v common_o take_v by_o divine_n for_o a_o assent_n to_o any_o thing_n on_o the_o credit_n of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o revealer_n and_o so_o be_v distinguish_v both_o from_o the_o sensible_a apprehension_n of_o thing_n and_o
still_o you_o can_v delight_n in_o god_n i_o say_v again_o do_v but_o acknowledge_v it_o the_o great_a work_n that_o god_n require_v of_o you_o and_o make_v it_o your_o daily_a aim_n and_o care_n and_o business_n and_o then_o you_o will_v more_o easy_o and_o certain_o attain_v it_o but_o while_o you_o know_v not_o your_o work_n or_o so_o far_o mistake_v it_o as_o to_o think_v it_o consist_v
