will_v be_v nothing_o to_o the_o soul_n that_o love_v he_o love_n be_v as_o strong_a as_o death_n you_o see_v it_o in_o the_o apostle_n they_o count_v not_o their_o life_n too_o dear_a to_o give_v

and_o he_o that_o dwell_v in_o love_n dwell_v in_o god_n and_o god_n in_o he_o etc._n etc._n we_o love_v he_o because_o he_o love_v we_o first_o and_o that_o of_o mary_n much_o be_v forgive_v she_o and_o therefore_o she_o love_v much_o while_o a_o man_n look_v upon_o god_n as_o a_o enemy_n who_o hate_v he_o he_o can_v never_o love_v he_o but_o when_o once_o the_o soul_n by_o faith_n do_v apprehend_v god_n love_n to_o he_o then_o do_v the_o soul_n love_n god_n again_o the_o love_n of_o god_n beget_v love_n in_o the_o soul_n to_o god_n parit_fw-la amor_fw-la dei_fw-la amorem_fw-la

2._o strong_a in_o faith_n and_o strong_a in_o hope_n and_o expectation_n of_o the_o thing_n believe_v which_o be_v that_o which_o hold_v up_o our_o head_n and_o keep_v the_o soul_n from_o sink_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o these_o worldly_a trouble_n 3._o strong_a faith_n and_o strong_a patience_n a_o strong_a faith_n will_v bear_v strong_a affliction_n with_o strong_a patience_n faith_n do_v strengthen_v a_o man_n shoulder_n to_o bear_v evil_n and_o trouble_n with_o patience_n a_o weak_a tree_n be_v blow_v down_o with_o that_o which_o move_v not_o a_o strong_a tree_n weak_a shoulder_n sink_v under_o that_o burden_n which_o a_o strong_a one_o will_v bear_v away_o so_o a_o weak_a faith_n will_v sink_v with_o that_o trial_n which_o a_o strong_a faith_n be_v able_a to_o undergo_v with_o strength_n of_o patience_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v god_n goodness_n still_o to_o proportion_v the_o trial_n to_o the_o strength_n a_o strong_a faith_n can_v receive_v a_o mercy_n and_o be_v thankful_a and_o can_v render_v a_o mercy_n and_o be_v patient_a a_o strong_a faith_n can_v enjoy_v a_o blessing_n and_o be_v cheerful_a and_o can_v lose_v it_o and_o be_v content_v hence_o say_v

and_o the_o ground_n of_o all_o be_v this_o because_o a_o strong_a faith_n have_v dear_a evidence_n and_o apprehension_n that_o god_n be_v a_o father_n do_v conclude_v that_o all_o his_o deal_n be_v for_o good_a all_o thing_n shall_v work_v together_o for_o good_a to_o they_o that_o love_n god_n and_o he_o have_v say_v he_o will_v never_o depart_v from_o we_o from_o do_v we_o good_a i'faith_o like_o the_o philosopher_n stone_n turn_v all_o into_o gold_n see_v all_o god_n deal_n to_o be_v for_o good_a if_o god_n then_o afflict_v a_o man_n why_o will_v faith_n say_v it_o be_v for_o good_a i_o have_v need_n of_o such_o affliction_n to_o work_v out_o such_o a_o strong_a corruption_n be_v the_o affliction_n many_o why_o will_v faith_n say_v i_o have_v need_n of_o many_o affliction_n because_o i_o have_v many_o corruption_n be_v they_o long_o why_o i_o have_v need_n of_o that_o too_o because_o sin_n and_o i_o be_v so_o hardly_o part_v it_o be_v so_o hard_a to_o make_v a_o divorce_n betwixt_o sin_n and_o my_o soul_n and_o therefore_o the_o affliction_n have_v need_v to_o continue_v long_o faith_n see_v that_o god_n aim_v at_o this_o to_o wean_v we_o from_o the_o world_n to_o win_v we_o close_o to_o he_o to_o exercise_v and_o increase_v our_o grace_n to_o weaken_v sin_n and_o corruption_n to_o make_v we_o more_o fruitful_a therefore_o do_v he_o prune_v we_o that_o we_o may_v grow_v more_o if_o a_o man_n lop_v tree_n at_o sometime_o they_o will_v wither_v and_o die_v but_o if_o at_o other_o time_n they_o will_v be_v make_v more_o fruitful_a god_n use_v to_o afflict_v the_o wicked_a at_o such_o time_n but_o the_o saint_n when_o they_o may_v grow_v the_o more_o therefore_o god_n winnow_v we_o fan_n we_o to_o blow_v away_o the_o chaff_n therefore_o he_o put_v we_o as_o gold_n into_o the_o fire_n that_o we_o may_v come_v out_o much_o more_o pure_a strong_a faith_n and_o strong_a obedience_n obedience_n be_v proportionable_a to_o our_o faith_n the_o great_a the_o faith_n the_o more_o the_o obedience_n a_o little_a tree_n a_o young_a tree_n may_v bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n as_o well_o as_o a_o great_a but_o not_o in_o equal_a quantity_n to_o the_o great_a so_o he_o that_o have_v the_o least_o degree_n of_o true_a faith_n live_v a_o godly_a life_n bring_v forth_o some_o fruit_n of_o obedience_n but_o they_o be_v not_o so_o plentiful_a in_o good_a work_n as_o those_o who_o faith_n be_v come_v to_o a_o high_a degree_n weak_a faith_n do_v obey_v and_o this_o obedience_n be_v a_o willing_a a_o cheerful_a a_o fruitful_a a_o constant_a a_o universal_a obedience_n both_o 1._o in_o respect_n of_o the_o subject_a the_o whole_a man_n and_o 2._o in_o respect_n of_o the_o object_n the_o whole_a law_n there_o be_v a_o willing_a yield_v of_o the_o soul_n up_o to_o god_n to_o walk_v in_o every_o way_n of_o god_n as_o david_n lord_n i_o be_o thou_o or_o as_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n one_o shall_v say_v i_o be_o the_o lord_n otherwise_o it_o be_v not_o true_a obedience_n but_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o act_v so_o much_o as_o the_o strong_a they_o be_v as_o large_a in_o desire_n in_o affection_n to_o obey_v but_o not_o in_o

believer_n may_v pray_v hear_v etc._n etc._n but_o not_o pray_v so_o strong_o so_o powerful_o as_o other_o who_o have_v more_o faith_n so_o that_o you_o see_v where_o there_o be_v strong_a faith_n there_o be_v strong_a obedience_n a_o strong_a faith_n will_v follow_v god_n full_o in_o every_o way_n in_o lose_v way_n as_o well_o as_o in_o gain_v way_n in_o suffer_a way_n as_o well_o as_o in_o
