he_o so_o the_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n be_v his_o belove_a spouse_n and_o her_o legitimate_a child_n be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n will_v not_o be_v fearful_a &_o distrustful_a whether_o god_n

unto_o we_o first_o that_o the_o saint_n in_o this_o life_n avouch_v that_o they_o be_v the_o lord_n in_o his_o favour_n and_o in_o his_o love_n and_o that_o we_o may_v understand_v how_o certain_o they_o be_v assure_v thereof_o they_o double_v the_o same_o asseveration_n say_v that_o they_o do_v not_o go_v by_o guess_n or_o stand_v upon_o blind_a hope_n but_o that_o they_o know_v indeed_o that_o they_o be_v the_o lord_n second_o the_o mean_n be_v ●et_o down_o whereby_o they_o know_v that_o they_o be_v god_n even_o because_o he_o have_v give_v to_o they_o a_o true_a knowledge_n of_o himself_o we_o be_v thou_o say_v they_o for_o we_o know_v thy_o power_n three_o they_o avouch_v that_o their_o sin_n of_o ignorance_n and_o infirmity_n do_v not_o take_v from_o they_o this_o assurance_n of_o their_o faith_n for_o say_v they_o though_o we_o sin_n yet_o be_v we_o thou_o four_o they_o avouch_v that_o this_o assurance_n of_o god_n love_n be_v a_o most_o powerful_a mean_n to_o keep_v they_o that_o they_o do_v not_o willing_o give_v themselves_o over_o to_o sin_n for_o say_v they_o we_o sin_v not_o know_v that_o we_o be_v thou_o and_o therefore_o herein_o also_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o plain_a and_o direct_a evidence_n give_v in_o by_o all_o the_o saint_n in_o that_o they_o affirm_v that_o the_o assurance_n of_o god_n love_n be_v a_o spur_n to_o sin_n whereas_o the_o saint_n avouch_v and_o that_o no_o doubt_n upon_o their_o own_o experience_n that_o it_o be_v a_o bridle_n to_o restrain_v from_o the_o same_o grace_n conceal_v from_o such_o as_o be_v leave_v to_o their_o own_o headstrong_a affection_n may_v be_v a_o occasion_n that_o many_o be_v carry_v headlong_o into_o sin_n but_o grace_v reveal_v give_v

that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n not_o only_o will_v &_o command_v her_o follower_n to_o doubt_v of_o their_o salvation_n and_o to_o fear_v whether_o they_o be_v in_o the_o estate_n of_o grace_n
