the_o passover_n not_o a_o jot_n of_o old_a leaven_n but_o we_o must_v part_v with_o it_o now_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o leaven_n it_o be_v always_o purge_v out_o and_o it_o will_v be_v purge_v out_o while_o we_o be_v here_o only_o the_o efficacy_n and_o strength_n thereof_o remain_v not_o then_o think_v with_o thyself_o be_v all_o new_a in_o i_o look_v what_o natural_a disposition_n i_o

creature_n a_o new_a nature_n that_o be_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o a_o man_n to_o have_v a_o new_a course_n for_o a_o fit_a to_o have_v new_a purpose_n and_o a_o new_a change_n that_o come_v

therefore_o its_o impossible_a that_o any_o man_n shall_v be_v save_v or_o have_v part_n in_o christ_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v in_o christ_n and_o christ_n in_o he_o except_o his_o heart_n be_v purify_v so_o as_o to_o be_v zealous_a of_o good_a work_n if_o christ_n dwell_v in_o thy_o heart_n thou_o may_v easy_o know_v it_o for_o do_v thou_o think_v that_o christ_n will_v dwell_v in_o a_o foul_a and_o unclean_a place_n have_v he_o not_o 13._o pure_a eye_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v certain_a wheresoever_o he_o dwell_v that_o place_n must_v be_v a_o fit_a temple_n for_o he_o to_o dwell_v in_o wherefore_o of_o necessity_n he_o must_v cleanse_v thy_o heart_n he_o must_v fashion_v it_o and_o keep_v it_o pure_a and_o clean_o and_o sweet_a so_o as_o it_o may_v be_v a_o fit_a

it_o not_o be_v say_v like_a man_n like_o master_n will_v it_o not_o reflect_v upon_o he_o certain_o it_o will_v and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n so_o order_v it_o that_o those_o who_o he_o have_v

be_v save_v through_o christ_n and_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n when_o there_o go_v out_o no_o such_o virtue_n and_o power_n from_o christ_n to_o change_v he_o to_o work_v on_o he_o to_o

yourselves_o if_o this_o be_v wrought_v in_o you_o or_o no_o whether_o you_o find_v any_o experiment_n &_o effect_n of_o this_o mighty_a power_n efficacy_n and_o virtue_n and_o let_v i_o bring_v you_o a_o little_a to_o particular_n have_v there_o go_v out_o a_o virtue_n from_o he_o to_o enable_v thou_o to_o believe_v there_o be_v a_o faith_n require_v in_o the_o deity_n there_o be_v a_o faith_n

there_o be_v a_o faith_n require_v in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n there_o be_v a_o faith_n require_v in_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n to_o think_v that_o every_o particular_a thing_n be_v order_v by_o it_o there_o be_v also_o a_o faith_n in_o all_o the_o threaten_n of_o god_n now_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o propound_v when_o the_o scripture_n come_v to_o propound_v any_o thing_n it_o propound_v it_o thus_o and_o no_o more_o as_o you_o see_v in_o moses_n he_o write_v nothing_o but_o 1._o in_o the_o beginning_n god_n make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o the_o

but_o now_o here_o you_o will_v demand_v quest._n the_o proposition_n be_v but_o naked_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o scripture_n what_o will_v enable_v a_o man_n to_o believe_v it_o i_o answer_v answ._n that_o certain_o there_o be_v a_o mighty_a power_n that_o go_v out_o from_o god_n &_o from_o christ_n that_o enable_v thou_o to_o believe_v with_o this_o efficacy_n that_o where_o the_o object_n be_v set_v before_o thou_o there_o go_v out_o a_o power_n from_o he_o to_o work_v faith_n in_o thy_o heart_n whereby_o thou_o true_o believe_v it_o and_o so_o it_o appear_v in_o thy_o life_n we_o think_v we_o believe_v those_o thing_n but_o our_o life_n do_v manifest_v the_o contrary_a namely_o that_o there_o be_v not_o a_o powerful_a faith_n wrought_v in_o we_o for_o all_o the_o error_n of_o our_o

inconvenience_n in_o the_o life_n of_o man_n therefore_o consider_v if_o this_o faith_n be_v wrought_v in_o thou_o whether_o such_o a_o power_n have_v go_v out_o to_o work_v such_o a_o faith_n that_o have_v change_v thy_o whole_a course_n as_o it_o will_v do_v if_o it_o be_v once_o wrought_v in_o thou_o by_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n so_o also_o consider_v whether_o there_o have_v a_o virtue_n go_v out_o from_o he_o to_o work_v love_n in_o thy_o heart_n to_o the_o lord_n for_o otherwise_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o be_v able_a to_o love_n

that_o can_v be_v buy_v with_o mountain_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n yet_o if_o thou_o be_v in_o christ_n there_o go_v out_o a_o virtue_n from_o he_o that_o stamp_v upon_o thy_o heart_n this_o holy_a
