that_o ordinary_a mean_n be_v prescribe_v by_o god_n not_o only_o for_o the_o first_o beget_n but_o also_o for_o the_o increase_n and_o continuance_n of_o all_o these_o grace_n to_o wit_n the_o word_n

the_o most_o holy_a person_n natural_a corruption_n which_o be_v sometime_o so_o strong_a as_o it_o not_o only_o hinder_v the_o work_n of_o these_o grace_n so_o as_o a_o regenerate_a man_n can_v do_v

that_o they_o so_o 257._o see_v a_o excellent_a discourse_n of_o this_o in_o bishop_n abbot_n answer_n to_o bishop_n in_o this_o point_n of_o the_o certainty_n of_o salvation_n pag._n 257._o humble_v themselves_o 〈◊〉_d cry_n and_o call_v as_o if_o they_o be_v forsake_v four_o that_o this_o faith_n and_o these_o grace_n be_v not_o see_v nor_o feel_v to_o be_v at_o all_o time_n alike_o in_o

which_o in_o some_o agony_n of_o spirit_n cause_v they_o to_o utter_v some_o uncomfortable_a word_n savour_v rather_o of_o desperation_n then_o of_o any_o hope_n of_o salvation_n even_o as_o christ_n on_o the_o cross_n cry_v my_o god_n my_o god_n why_o have_v thou_o forsake_v i_o and_o as_o david_n sometime_o do_v in_o the_o psalm_n ps_n 13._o 1._o &_o 6._o 1_o 6._o &_o 22._o 1_o 2._o &_o 31._o 22._o &_o 38._o 1_o 8._o &_o 55._o 4_o 5._o five_o and_o last_o that_o albeit_o the_o imperfection_n of_o grace_n and_o corruption_n of_o nature_n do_v weaken_v thus_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n and_o other_o accompany_v grace_n much_o trouble_v the_o soul_n of_o a_o true_a believer_n yet_o do_v none_o of_o they_o hereby_o alter_v their_o nature_n nor_o change_v their_o quality_n but_o faith_n hold_v its_o hold_n though_o sometime_o as_o do_v a_o palsy_n hand_n and_o strive_v against_o doubt_v till_o it_o conquer_v in_o the_o combat_n as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o david_n conflict_n first_o he_o will_v say_v to_o his_o soul_n as_o he_o do_v in_o a_o psalm_n why_o be_v thou_o so_o disquiet_v within_o i_o yet_o trust_v in_o god_n second_o he_o will_v run_v to_o god_n in_o prayer_n which_o be_v the_o true_a fruit_n of_o faith_n three_o he_o will_v profess_v his_o faith_n and_o trust_v in_o god_n so_o job_n in_o his_o great_a terror_n say_v if_o he_o kill_v i_o yet_o will_v i_o trust_v in_o he_o so_o that_o faith_n give_v assurance_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o trouble_n and_o save_v daniel_n in_o the_o very_a den_n of_o lion_n and_o other_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o a_o fiery_a oven_n therefore_o for_o all_o the_o defect_n of_o grace_n and_o power_n of_o corruption_n overswaying_a too_o often_o yet_o see_v they_o destroy_v not_o faith_n in_o the_o elect_a nor_o annihilate_v their_o
