to_o query_n thing_n that_o call_v not_o into_o question_n any_o one_o article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n but_o further_a to_o clear_v the_o matter_n i_o do_v affirm_v that_o i_o never_o say_v to_o any_o nor_o do_v i_o ever_o conclude_v in_o my_o thought_n that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o revolution_n as_o they_o be_v common_o understand_v or_o as_o deliver_v in_o that_o book_n be_v the_o matter_n of_o my_o faith_n or_o be_v thing_n inward_o reveal_v or_o open_v to_o i_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n as_o i_o be_o free_a to_o say_v concern_v all_o thing_n of_o my_o christian_a faith_n which_o i_o both_o believe_v and_o profess_v nor_o have_v i_o ever_o have_v any_o controversy_n strife_n or_o contention_n with_o any_o man_n about_o the_o revolution_n so_o call_v and_o i_o have_v be_v very_o shy_a and_o backward_a either_o to_o lend_v or_o recommend_v the_o say_a book_n but_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n what_o a_o man_n may_v suppose_v to_o be_v a_o probable_a opinion_n or_o rational_a hypothesis_n either_o as_o touch_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o revolution_n of_o which_o there_o be_v many_o sort_n assert_v by_o author_n or_o as_o touch_v any_o other_o doctrine_n in_o astronomy_n or_o physic_n and_o it_o be_v far_o another_o thing_n what_o a_o man_n assert_n to_o be_v his_o christian_a faith_n ground_v upon_o the_o inward_a evidence_n and_o testimony_n of_o god_n spirit_n in_o the_o heart_n but_o as_o to_o my_o real_a sense_n of_o the_o opinion_n of_o that_o call_v the_o revolution_n which_o do_v general_o relate_v to_o time_n past_a and_o not_o with_o the_o least_o certainty_n to_o any_o one_o particular_a person_n to_o the_o time_n to_o come_v ever_o since_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n if_o any_o hold_v any_o such_o opinion_n or_o doctrine_n of_o they_o as_o i_o know_v none_o that_o do_v that_o do_v teach_v that_o man_n may_v delay_v their_o repentance_n or_o live_v a_o good_a life_n in_o hope_n that_o they_o shall_v live_v again_o after_o death_n i_o do_v sincere_o declare_v i_o have_v always_o abhor_v any_o such_o doctrine_n and_o judge_v it_o wicked_a and_o abominable_a and_o still_o i_o do_v so_o judge_v and_o hope_v so_o to_o do_v while_o i_o live_v and_o i_o have_v upon_o many_o occasion_n bear_v my_o zealous_a testimony_n both_o in_o public_a and_o in_o private_a to_o the_o contrary_a viz._n that_o to_o entertain_v any_o such_o hope_n to_o live_v again_o in_o order_n to_o repent_v and_o live_v a_o good_a life_n after_o a_o man_n have_v neglect_v the_o present_a opportunity_n wherein_o to_o repent_v etc._n etc._n in_o this_o present_a life_n be_v as_o wicked_a as_o it_o be_v vain_a for_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o bring_v salvation_n teach_v we_o to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o live_v sober_o righteous_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a world_n tit._n 2.11_o 12._o but_o it_o teach_v no_o man_n to_o delay_v his_o good_a live_n to_o any_o time_n after_o death_n either_o in_o hope_n of_o a_o purgatory_n while_o the_o soul_n be_v out_o of_o the_o body_n or_o in_o hope_n to_o live_v again_o in_o a_o mortal_a body_n for_o now_o be_v the_o accept_a time_n now_o be_v the_o day_n of_o salvation_n 2_o cor._n 6.2_o and_o it_o be_v the_o last_o time_n as_o john_n have_v declare_v 1_o john_n 2.18_o and_o also_o paul_n say_v rom._n 13.11_o and_o that_o know_v the_o time_n that_o now_o it_o be_v high_a time_n to_o awake_v out_o of_o sleep_n etc._n etc._n let_v we_o therefore_o cast_v off_o the_o work_v of_o darkness_n and_o put_v on_o the_o armour_n of_o light_n for_o the_o time_n of_o ignorance_n god_n wink_v at_o but_o now_o comenand_v all_o man_n every_o where_o to_o repent_v act_v 17.30_o and_o as_o john_n say_v mat._n 3._o 10._o and_o now_o also_o the_o axe_n be_v lay_v to_o the_o root_n of_o the_o tree_n therefore_o every_o tree_n that_o bring_v not_o forth_o good_a fruit_n be_v hew_v down_o and_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n and_o therefore_o if_o any_o hold_v such_o doctrine_n of_o revolution_n that_o put_v man_n upon_o delay_v their_o repentance_n or_o neglect_v to_o live_v a_o good_a life_n in_o hope_n to_o live_v again_o after_o death_n to_o repent_v and_o amend_v as_o i_o have_v always_o abhor_v it_o so_o i_o hope_v i_o shall_v always_o do_v and_o bear_v my_o faithful_a testimony_n against_o it_o and_o whereas_o the_o say_a person_n have_v accuse_v i_o before_o divers_a witness_n that_o my_o manner_n of_o preach_v the_o faith_n of_o christ_n crucify_a and_o raise_v again_o its_o be_v necessary_a to_o make_v man_n christian_n and_o son_n of_o god_n of_o the_o free_a woman_n and_o child_n of_o the_o new-covenant_n do_v infer_v my_o hold_n of_o the_o revolution_n to_o wit_n that_o all_o pious_a gentile_n die_v without_o all_o bearing_n christ_n crucify_v and_o raise_v again_o preach_v to_o they_o must_v of_o necessity_n live_v again_o in_o a_o mortal_a body_n in_o order_n to_o hear_v that_o doctrine_n outward_o preach_v to_o they_o or_o then_o be_v damn_v the_o which_o alternative_a i_o positive_o deny_v and_o by_o this_o his_o accusation_n he_o have_v show_v what_o a_o changeling_n he_o be_v from_o better_a to_o worse_o in_o so_o find_v fault_n with_o my_o doctrine_n for_o preach_v or_o print_v the_o necessity_n of_o this_o faith_n to_o salvation_n which_o he_o have_v so_o frequent_o hold_v forth_o himself_o &_o own_a and_o approve_v in_o my_o book_n and_o i_o propose_v it_o to_o the_o serious_a consideration_n of_o all_o sincere_a christian_n whether_o this_o difficulty_n show_v much_o so_o ever_o real_a or_o seem_a do_v more_o pinch_n or_o straiten_v i_o than_o all_o christendom_n that_o universal_o assert_v the_o necessity_n of_o faith_n in_o christ_n crucify_v and_o raise_v again_o to_o make_v man_n true_a and_o sincere_a christian_n and_o that_o by_o this_o faith_n man_n be_v justify_v sanctify_a and_o attain_v to_o eternal_a life_n and_o that_o therefore_o no_o jew_n or_o turk_n can_v be_v a_o true_a christian_a because_o they_o have_v not_o this_o faith_n however_o otherwise_o just_a and_o conscientious_a they_o may_v be_v and_o whither_o see_v the_o whole_a strain_n and_o current_n of_o the_o scripture_n both_o of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n be_v such_o as_o do_v demonstrate_v the_o necessity_n of_o this_o faith_n and_o gospel_n to_o be_v preach_v to_o all_o nation_n to_o wit_n that_o christ_n jesus_n the_o son_n of_o god_n die_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o rise_v again_o for_o our_o justification_n and_o that_o it_o be_v plain_a from_o express_a scripture_n that_o this_o justification_n be_v not_o obtain_v nor_o salvation_n to_o wit_n final_o full_o and_o perfect_o without_o this_o faith_n i_o say_v whether_o in_o opposition_n to_o and_o in_o prejudice_n of_o the_o revolution_n and_o for_o avoid_v that_o doctrine_n and_o lay_v it_o aside_o we_o must_v and_o aught_o to_o lay_v aside_o the_o preach_a and_o faith_n of_o christ_n as_o he_o outward_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n on_o the_o tree_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o rise_v again_o for_o our_o ●ustification_n as_o a_o thing_n unnecessary_a and_o indifferent_a as_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v if_o man_n may_v be_v complete_a and_o perfect_a christian_n without_o this_o faith_n and_o perfect_o overcome_v all_o sin_n and_o attain_v to_o a_o perfect_a state_n of_o sanctification_n without_o it_o and_o may_v be_v child_n of_o god_n and_o son_n of_o the_o free_a woman_n and_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n without_o this_o faith_n and_o if_o so_o then_o do_v not_o this_o whole_o render_v pious_a paganism_n or_o gentilism_n to_o be_v perfect_a christianity_n and_o perfect_a christianity_n to_o be_v nothing_o else_o than_o pious_a gentilism_n and_o do_v not_o this_o make_v the_o faith_n and_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n both_o without_o we_o and_o within_o we_o of_o none_o effect_v for_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v that_o ever_o any_o have_v the_o true_a knowledge_n or_o faith_n of_o christ_n within_o they_o but_o who_o have_v the_o true_a knowledge_n and_o faith_n of_o christ_n without_o they_o for_o though_o christ_n be_v and_o be_v in_o pious_a and_o conscientious_a gentile_n in_o th●ir_n mere_a gentile_a state_n yet_o they_o do_v not_o know_v he_o as_o such_o nor_o do_v they_o believe_v in_o he_o as_o christ_n as_o all_o sincere_a christian_n do_v and_o do_v and_o shall_v not_o this_o be_v of_o most_o evil_a tendency_n thus_o to_o make_v void_a the_o faith_n of_o christ_n crucify_v without_o we_o and_o raise_v again_o in_o prejudice_n of_o and_o in_o opposition_n to_o that_o call_v the_o revolution_n as_o my_o accuser_n have_v do_v though_o he_o himself_o have_v declare_v his_o favour_v of_o the_o revolution_n as_o a_o probable_a
