father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n whence_o i_o lie_v down_o this_o conclusion_n that_o they_o and_o none_o but_o they_o who_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n for_o the_o clear_n of_o this_o there_o be_v this_o querie_n to_o be_v make_v as_o to_o the_o term_n what_o be_v we_o to_o understand_v by_o the_o will_n and_o by_o the_o do_n of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n which_o be_v answer_v we_o may_v more_o safe_o proceed_v to_o prove_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o proposition_n but_o before_o i_o can_v do_v this_o it_o be_v requisite_a to_o premise_v these_o two_o thing_n 1._o that_o the_o will_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n be_v one_o the_o father_n and_o he_o be_v one_o and_o agree_v in_o one_o and_o indeed_o it_o be_v in_o he_o and_o by_o he_o that_o we_o know_v the_o will_n of_o god_n no_o man_n say_v john_n chap._n 1.18_o have_v see_v god_n at_o any_o time_n the_o only_o beget_v son_n which_o be_v in_o the_o bosom_n of_o the_o father_n he_o have_v declare_v he_o and_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 1_o cor._n 2.16_o who_o have_v know_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n but_o we_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n wherein_o and_o whereby_o we_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n the_o father_n say_v of_o the_o son_n as_o pharaoh_n do_v of_o joseph_n gen_n 41.55_o go_v unto_o joseph_n what_o he_o say_v unto_o you_o do_v and_o as_o his_o mother_n say_v to_o the_o servant_n at_o the_o wedding_n john_n 2.5_o whatsoever_o he_o say_v unto_o you_o do_v it_o just_o so_o his_o father_n say_v this_o be_v my_o belove_a son_n in_o who_o i_o be_o well_o please_v hear_v you_o he_o so_o that_o whatever_o christ_n say_v unto_o you_o be_v his_o father_n will_n and_o therefore_o verse_n 24._o he_o call_v they_o his_o say_n and_o pronounce_v they_o bless_v that_o hear_v and_o do_v they_o for_o they_o be_v his_o father_n will._n 2._o as_o to_o the_o term_n i_o premise_v this_o also_o that_o these_o phrase_n the_o will_n of_o god_n the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o work_n of_o god_n the_o command_v of_o god_n etc._n etc._n be_v all_o equivalent_a and_o signify_v the_o same_o thing_n so_o then_o i_o answer_v that_o by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v 1._o the_o credenda_fw-la faith_n 2._o the_o agenda_fw-la holiness_n good_a work_n or_o the_o 26._o the_o rom._n 16_o 26._o obedience_n of_o faith_n not_o either_o but_o each_o of_o they_o not_o one_o or_o the_o other_o but_o both_o one_o and_o the_o other_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n or_o thing_n to_o be_v believe_v and_o the_o doctrine_n of_o holiness_n or_o thing_n to_o be_v do_v and_o practise_v as_o faith_n exclude_v not_o do_v with_o respect_n to_o salvation_n so_o do_v exclude_v not_o faith_n for_o as_o faith_n without_o work_n be_v dead_a so_o work_v without_o faith_n be_v dead_a also_o as_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o faith_n without_o work_n can_v please_v god_n so_o no_o less_o impossible_a for_o work_n without_o faith_n to_o please_v god_n and_o therefore_o what_o god_n have_v join_v together_o man_n shall_v not_o put_v asunder_o yea_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o believe_v be_v express_o call_v the_o will_n of_o god_n john_n 6.27_o etc._n etc._n labour_v not_o say_v christ_n for_o the_o meat_n which_o perish_v but_o for_o that_o which_o endure_v unto_o everlasting_a life_n which_o the_o son_n of_o man_n give_v you_o whence_o by_o the_o way_n observe_v that_o god_n give_v and_o man_n labour_a be_v not_o inconsistent_a free_a grace_n and_o full_a duty_n may_v join_v heart_n and_o hand_n but_o say_v they_o ver_fw-la 28._o what_o shall_v we_o do_v that_o we_o may_v work_v the_o work_n of_o god_n jesus_n answer_v v._o
his_o will_n be_v do_v go_v to_o now_o then_o you_o that_o say_v as_o james_z 4.13_o etc._n etc._n to_o day_n or_o to_o motrow_v we_o will_v go_v into_o such_o a_o city_n whereas_o you_o shall_v say_v

because_o they_o can_v have_v their_o will_n but_o alas_o we_o see_v that_o if_o our_o will_n be_v do_v god_n will_v not_o and_o then_o wo_n unto_o we_o for_o we_o reward_v evil_a to_o our_o own_o
