of_o holiness_n it_o come_v by_o jesus_n christ_n he_o have_v as_o the_o apostle_n say_v implant_v the_o law_n by_o himself_o and_o the_o law_n be_v write_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o servant_n by_z and_o through_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n as_o you_o know_v that_o great_a place_n heb._n 8._o 10._o how_o come_v the_o law_n to_o be_v write_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n it_o be_v because_o of_o the_o new_a covenant_n of_o which_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o surety_n and_o the_o mediator_n this_o be_v the_o covenant_n that_o i_o will_v make_v with_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n after_o those_o day_n say_v the_o lord_n i_o will_v put_v my_o law_n into_o their_o mind_n and_o write_v they_o in_o their_o heart_n all_o the_o holy_a law_n of_o god_n they_o be_v write_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o mind_n through_o the_o new_a covenant_n of_o which_o you_o know_v every_o where_o the_o apostle_n declare_v christ_n to_o be_v the_o surety_n and_o the_o mediator_n and_o the_o testator_n of_o so_o that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v well_o speak_v in_o the_o whole_a world_n of_o morality_n it_o be_v proper_o transplant_v under_o the_o influence_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n of_o righteousness_n and_o the_o great_a sanctifier_n of_o his_o people_n and_o so_o if_o we_o take_v those_o place_n of_o scripture_n to_o be_v sure_a holiness_n and_o sanctification_n in_o the_o strict_a sense_n be_v not_o to_o be_v exclude_v that_o he_o may_v sanctify_v his_o people_n with_o his_o own_o blood_n for_o their_o sake_n i_o sanctify_v myself_o that_o they_o may_v be_v sanctify_v through_o the_o truth_n now_o faith_n be_v that_o as_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o by_o which_o we_o derive_v from_o jesus_n christ_n all_o sanctification_n in_o what_o sense_n soever_o i_o come_v to_o the_o four_o thing_n in_o which_o i_o will_v show_v the_o excellency_n of_o faith_n and_o that_o it_o be_v all_o in_o and_o through_o christ._n and_o that_o be_v those_o heroic_a act_n those_o extraordinary_a act_n that_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n have_v do_v in_o the_o world_n at_o any_o time_n they_o have_v be_v do_v by_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n as_o that_o power_n have_v be_v receive_v by_o faith_n from_o jesus_n christ_n in_o heb._n 11._o we_o have_v a_o great_a record_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n have_v do_v in_o the_o several_a age_n of_o the_o world_n the_o great_a many_o thing_n they_o have_v do_v those_o mighty_a act_n that_o they_o achieve_v as_o you_o see_v all_o along_o in_o that_o chapter_n the_o apostle_n begin_v with_o abel_n and_o so_o he_o come_v down_o to_o noah_n and_o to_o abraham_n and_o isaac_n and_o jacob_n and_o then_o to_o joseph_n and_o to_o moses_n and_o then_o to_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n together_o as_o you_o find_v verse_n 33._o gideon_n and_o barak_n and_o samson_n and_o jepthah_n and_o david_n and_o samuel_n and_o the_o prophet_n it_o come_v down_o to_o who_o through_o faith_n subdue_v kingdom_n wrought_v righteousness_n obtain_v promise_n stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o lion_n quench_v the_o violence_n of_o fire_n escape_v the_o edge_n of_o the_o sword_n out_o of_o weakness_n be_v make_v strong_a wax_v valiant_a in_o fight_n turn_v to_o flight_n the_o army_n of_o the_o alien_n woman_n receive_v their_o dead_a raise_v to_o life_n again_o and_o other_o be_v torture_v not_o accept_v deliverance_n that_o they_o may_v obtain_v a_o better_a resurrection_n and_o other_o have_v trial_n of_o cruel_a mock_n and_o scourge_n yea_o moreover_o of_o bond_n and_o imprisonment_n they_o be_v stone_v they_o be_v saw_v asunder_o be_v tempt_v be_v flain_v with_o the_o sword_n they_o wander_v about_o in_o sheepskin_n and_o goatskin_n be_v destitute_a afflict_a torment_v and_o these_o all_o say_v the_o apostle_n verse_n 39_o have_v obtain_v a_o good_a report_n indeed_o a_o good_a report_n be_v word_n in_o our_o ordinary_a use_n of_o they_o too_o low_a for_o the_o apostle_n mean_v they_o obtain_v a_o high_a renown_n for_o they_o be_v word_n of_o a_o celebrate_n nature_n they_o be_v of_o a_o holy_a great_a fame_n they_o obtain_v a_o great_a fame_n that_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o they_o be_v speak_v of_o with_o great_a honour_n in_o all_o age_n and_o all_o this_o be_v by_o faith_n and_o their_o faith_n it_o rest_v upon_o jesus_n christ_n for_o as_o a_o captain_n as_o he_o speak_v to_o joshua_n who_o be_v here_o refer_v to_o he_o appear_v nay_o say_v he_o captain_n of_o the_o lord_n host_n be_o i_o now_o come_v and_o now_o thus_o appear_v unto_o thou_o it_o be_v very_o remarkable_a that_o all_o the_o great_a act_n that_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n have_v at_o any_o time_n do_v they_o have_v do_v it_o by_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n and_o that_o faith_n in_o christ_n josh_n 5._o 13._o and_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v when_o joshua_n be_v by_o jericho_n that_o he_o lift_v up_o his_o eye_n and_o look_v and_o behold_v there_o stand_v a_o man_n over_o against_o he_o with_o his_o sword_n draw_v in_o his_o hand_n and_o joshua_n go_v unto_o he_o and_o say_v unto_o he_o be_v thou_o for_o we_o or_o for_o our_o adversary_n and_o he_o say_v nay_o but_o as_o captain_n of_o the_o host_n of_o the_o lord_n be_o i_o now_o come_v and_o joshua_n fall_v on_o his_o face_n to_o the_o earth_n and_o do_v worship_n and_o say_v unto_o he_o what_o say_v my_o lord_n unto_o his_o servant_n now_o this_o we_o know_v be_v not_o what_o any_o holy_a angel_n will_v accept_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v certain_a it_o be_v christ_n he_o fall_v down_o and_o worship_v but_o when_o the_o angel_n in_o the_o revelation_n be_v offer_v to_o be_v worship_v you_o know_v he_o say_v see_v thou_o do_v it_o not_o for_o i_o be_o but_o a_o fellow_n servant_n but_o say_v joshua_n what_o say_v my_o lord_n unto_o his_o servant_n and_o the_o captain_n of_o the_o lord_n host_n say_v unto_o joshua_n lose_v thy_o shoe_n from_o thy_o foot_n for_o the_o place_n whereon_o thou_o stand_v be_v holy_a ground_n and_o joshua_n do_v so_o i_o speak_v this_o only_a as_o a_o evident_a argument_n that_o this_o be_v christ_n and_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o he_o be_v the_o captain_n of_o the_o lord_n host_n in_o any_o great_a thing_n that_o his_o servant_n do_v and_o therefore_o when_o any_o of_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n do_v extraordinary_a thing_n it_o be_v by_o the_o power_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o their_o faith_n it_o be_v a_o faith_n in_o christ_n and_o therefore_o certain_o if_o we_o have_v the_o power_n of_o faith_n there_o will_v be_v great_a thing_n that_o we_o shall_v do_v we_o do_v but_o very_o little_a thing_n because_o we_o have_v very_o little_a faith_n but_o if_o a_o abundance_n of_o faith_n be_v give_v to_o we_o we_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o do_v the_o great_a thing_n that_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n have_v do_v heretofore_o and_o when_o ever_o such_o thing_n as_o i_o can_v but_o upon_o all_o occasion_n say_v to_o you_o i_o hope_v the_o time_n be_v near_o that_o great_a thing_n shall_v be_v do_v they_o shall_v be_v do_v by_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n and_o by_o the_o captain_n of_o the_o lord_n host_n appear_v and_o come_v on_o our_o side_n and_o as_o a_o further_a proof_n if_o there_o need_v any_o but_o i_o think_v there_o need_v nothing_o more_o to_o be_v say_v the_o captain_n of_o the_o lord_n host_n be_v christ_n the_o apostle_n take_v that_o very_a expression_n sure_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o think_v so_o for_o scripture_n delight_v in_o its_o own_o language_n and_o to_o refer_v to_o it_o and_o to_o speak_v like_o itself_o heb._n 2._o 10._o for_o it_o become_v he_o for_o who_o be_v all_o thing_n and_o by_o who_o be_v all_o thing_n in_o bring_v many_o son_n unto_o glory_n to_o make_v the_o captain_n of_o their_o salvation_n perfect_a through_o suffering_n the_o captain_n of_o the_o lord_n host_n so_o that_o i_o say_v all_o the_o great_a thing_n that_o have_v be_v do_v by_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n have_v be_v do_v by_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n such_o thing_n have_v never_o be_v do_v if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v for_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n come_v in_o by_o jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v certain_a such_o thing_n have_v never_o be_v do_v so_o as_o to_o give_v glory_n to_o god_n in_o the_o do_n of_o they_o indeed_o i_o know_v you_o may_v be_v ready_a to_o say_v why_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n have_v do_v great_a thing_n have_v we_o not_o hear_v and_o read_v of_o great_a alexander_n of_o the_o great_a caesar_n of_o the_o world_n of_o the_o great_a prince_n of_o the_o turkish_a army_n they_o have_v do_v great_a thing_n

know_v and_o then_o say_v they_o believe_v but_o faith_n be_v a_o sure_o know_v and_o therefore_o i_o propose_v in_o the_o last_o discourse_n to_o speak_v of_o the_o assurance_n of_o faith_n as_o it_o be_v a_o full_a assurance_n of_o understanding_n as_o i_o open_v to_o you_o from_o col._n 2._o 2._o 2._o a_o full_a assurance_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o pardon_n and_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n as_o i_o open_v to_o you_o from_o heb._n 10._o 22._o 3._o a_o full_a assurance_n of_o hope_n that_o i_o do_v not_o speak_v to_o before_o but_o this_o of_o all_o thing_n be_v most_o general_o agree_v that_o the_o servant_n of_o christ_n may_v come_v to_o a_o full_a assurance_n of_o hope_n no_o one_o will_v deny_v that_o to_o a_o christian_a that_o he_o shall_v have_v a_o full_a assurance_n of_o hope_n now_o and_o when_o he_o come_v to_o die_v i_o say_v of_o hope_n man_n will_v say_v you_o may_v may_v hope_v but_o you_o must_v not_o take_v upon_o you_o to_o be_v assure_v beyond_o hope_n now_o indeed_o full_a assurance_n of_o hope_n be_v a_o very_a great_a assurance_n be_v a_o very_a great_a and_o excellent_a kind_n of_o assurance_n i_o may_v give_v you_o several_a scripture_n that_o speak_v of_o this_o as_o 1._o pet._n 1._o 3_o he_o call_v it_o a_o live_a hope_n bless_a be_v the_o god_n and_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v beget_v we_o again_o unto_o a_o live_a hope_n we_o translate_v it_o a_o lively_a hope_n but_o if_o live_v will_v agrandize_v the_o thing_n and_o make_v it_o more_o emphatical_a the_o original_a be_v a_o live_a hope_n a_o hope_n that_o do_v not_o die_v when_o we_o die_v that_o do_v not_o die_v when_o our_o spirit_n be_v languid_a and_o our_o eye_n be_v ready_a to_o close_v and_o all_o the_o terror_n of_o death_n be_v about_o we_o yet_o this_o hope_n will_v survive_v so_o the_o apostle_n call_v it_o a_o good_a hope_n through_o grace_n and_o a_o hope_n that_o make_v not_o ashamed_a that_o be_v another_o expression_n and_o now_o this_o great_a assurance_n of_o hope_n you_o shall_v see_v on_o who_o or_o wherein_o the_o apostle_n place_n it_o col._n 1._o 27._o last_o word_n of_o that_o verse_n which_o be_v christ_n in_o you_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n so_o as_o i_o have_v show_v you_o all_o along_o faith_n be_v whole_o depend_v upon_o christ_n and_o all_o its_o power_n and_o excellency_n be_v in_o christ_n now_o can_v you_o have_v a_o full_a expression_n that_o the_o full_a assurance_n of_o hope_n in_o christ_n christ_n in_o you_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n it_o be_v he_o himself_o that_o bear_v up_o this_o hope_n alas_o this_o hope_n can_v no_o more_o live_v than_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o hypocrite_n as_o job_n call_v it_o that_o be_v but_o like_o a_o spider_n web_n and_o that_o be_v but_o like_o a_o stream_n cut_v off_o by_o the_o drought_n of_o summer_n so_o will_v hope_n be_v but_o christ_n be_v in_o his_o servant_n the_o hope_n of_o glory_n therefore_o their_o hope_n live_v but_o because_o i_o have_v design_v otherwise_o the_o discourse_n at_o this_o time_n and_o that_o another_o great_a point_n be_v before_o we_o i_o shall_v address_v myself_o whole_o to_o that_o and_o that_o be_v the_o assurance_n of_o holy_a action_n the_o full_a assurance_n which_o i_o ground_v in_o a_o former_a discourse_n upon_o the_o general_n i_o be_v to_o lay_v down_o upon_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 2_o thes_n 1._o 11._o wherefore_o also_o we_o pray_v always_o for_o you_o that_o our_o god_n will_v count_v you_o worthy_a of_o his_o call_n and_o fulfil_v that_o he_o will_v give_v you_o a_o plerophoria_fw-la all_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n with_o power_n that_o the_o name_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n may_v be_v glorify_v in_o you_o and_o you_o in_o he_o according_a to_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o god_n and_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n here_o every_o one_o may_v see_v plain_o that_o here_o be_v a_o mighty_a work_n of_o god_n through_o the_o heart_n into_o the_o life_n and_o conversation_n of_o his_o people_n and_o that_o it_o be_v carry_v on_o with_o a_o full_a sail_n by_o god_n and_o then_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o in_o the_o 11_o to_o the_o heb._n the_o apostle_n go_v throughout_o that_o chapter_n upon_o the_o action_n of_o faith_n and_o therefore_o if_o any_o one_o will_v expound_v as_o i_o say_v to_o you_o that_o in_o the_o 2d_o of_o james_n a_o man_n be_v justify_v not_o by_o faith_n only_o but_o by_o work_n he_o shall_v compare_v it_o with_o this_o of_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 11_o to_o the_o hebrew_n for_o there_o be_v the_o work_n of_o faith_n record_v and_o recollect_v all_o along_o by_o which_o the_o elder_n obtain_v a_o good_a report_n a_o great_a fame_n a_o great_a renown_n therefore_o for_o the_o open_n of_o this_o to_o you_o because_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o difficult_a point_n and_o that_o which_o seem_v to_o shake_v all_o that_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o our_o be_v justify_v not_o by_o faith_n as_o a_o work_n but_o only_o as_o christ_n choose_v to_o unite_n the_o soul_n to_o himself_o and_o so_o to_o communicate_v his_o righteousness_n his_o obedience_n and_o the_o value_n and_o merit_n of_o his_o suffering_n by_o faith_n for_o when_o the_o apostle_n james_n shall_v lay_v down_o in_o such_o express_a term_n that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v not_o by_o faith_n only_o but_o by_o work_v and_o shall_v discourse_v it_o so_o as_o he_o have_v do_v in_o that_o james_n 2._o 14._o to_o the_o very_a end_n of_o that_o chapter_n it_o look_v like_o a_o very_a great_a objection_n and_o the_o enemy_n of_o free_a grace_n and_o of_o the_o justify_v grace_n of_o god_n by_o his_o own_o righteousness_n in_o jesus_n christ_n make_v that_o chapter_n as_o i_o may_v say_v the_o top-gallant_n of_o all_o their_o discourse_n it_o be_v the_o great_a and_o mighty_a fort_n to_o which_o they_o retire_v upon_o all_o occasion_n therefore_o these_o three_o head_n of_o discourse_n i_o hope_v within_o the_o limit_n of_o time_n that_o be_v allot_v though_o it_o may_v seem_v something_o straight_o to_o make_v out_o to_o you_o first_o of_o all_o i_o will_v lay_v down_o to_o you_o what_o be_v proper_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n second_o i_o will_v show_v you_o how_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n be_v dependent_a upon_o christ_n and_o upon_o his_o righteousness_n and_o then_o three_o i_o will_v clear_v to_o you_o how_o the_o apostle_n james_n discourse_v so_o much_o of_o work_v and_o that_o faith_n only_o can_v do_v we_o no_o good_a to_o clear_v that_o to_o you_o and_o so_o to_o conclude_v with_o a_o brief_a application_n of_o it_o i_o begin_v with_o the_o first_o and_o that_o be_v to_o show_v you_o the_o work_v of_o faith_n in_o general_a and_o i_o shall_v do_v little_o more_o than_o point_n and_o direct_v your_o thought_n to_o these_o great_a concernment_n because_o there_o will_v not_o be_v opportunity_n to_o handle_v they_o so_o full_o and_o at_o large_a the_o first_o kind_n of_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n be_v this_o those_o act_n of_o faith_n which_o do_v immediate_o concern_v our_o receive_v of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o take_n of_o himself_o and_o his_o righteousness_n these_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o may_v be_v call_v the_o immanent_a act_n of_o faith_n those_o near_a close_a private_a act_n of_o faith_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o soul_n betwixt_o christ_n himself_o and_o the_o soul_n itself_o for_o i_o look_v upon_o it_o thus_o and_o i_o desire_v you_o to_o mind_v it_o whatever_o faith_n be_v not_o the_o faith_n of_o god_n elect_n of_o god_n operation_n a_o faith_n of_o the_o operation_n of_o god_n it_o certain_o miss_v in_o this_o first_o act_n pray_v consider_v in_o this_o first_o act_n of_o take_v christ_n it_o be_v certain_a the_o first_o activity_n of_o faith_n be_v in_o unite_n to_o christ_n in_o take_v he_o for_o our_o head_n for_o our_o husband_n in_o lay_v hold_n upon_o his_o righteousness_n as_o in_o a_o reflex_n return_v act_n of_o the_o soul_n its_o take_n receive_v christ_n give_v himself_o now_o a_o false_a faith_n miss_v here_o it_o do_v not_o take_v christ_n it_o think_v it_o take_v he_o and_o do_v not_o take_v he_o it_o be_v but_o faith_n in_o a_o dream_n as_o the_o prophet_n speak_v the_o hungry_a man_n dream_n that_o he_o eat_v and_o he_o awake_v and_o behold_v he_o be_v empty_a and_o he_o dream_n he_o drink_v and_o wake_v and_o find_v himself_o scorch_v with_o thirst_n so_o a_o man_n dream_n he_o take_v christ_n but_o he_o miss_v he_o and_o lo_o nothing_o be_v in_o his_o
