be_v b._n confident_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v the_o very_a soul_n or_o life_n of_o faith_n &_o the_o true_a difference_n of_o it_o that_o can_v be_v give_v because_o say_v he_o none_o can_v trust_v in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n but_o such_o a_o one_o as_o earnest_o long_v after_o god_n viz._n by_o b._n exposition_n love_v god_n wherein_o he_o shameful_o fail_v both_o in_o mistake_v the_o word_n and_o the_o matter_n itself_o he_o be_v deceive_v in_o the_o word_n because_o he_o call_v this_o earnest_a longing_n or_o desire_v by_o the_o name_n of_o love_n he_o err_v in_o the_o matter_n because_o he_o say_v it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o faith_n for_o although_o we_o grant_v that_o this_o fervent_a desire_n and_o wonderful_a seek_v after_o god_n must_v needs_o go_v before_o faith_n yet_o we_o avouch_v that_o it_o be_v no_o part_n of_o faith_n but_o of_o repentance_n as_o hereafter_o shall_v be_v declare_v and_o furthermore_o to_o call_v this_o desire_n by_o the_o name_n of_o love_n prove_v he_o to_o be_v a_o most_o erroneous_a fellow_n for_o to_o speak_v proper_o in_o thing_n divine_a there_o be_v great_a difference_n betwixt_o desire_n and_o love_n for_o we_o desire_v such_o thing_n as_o we_o have_v not_o but_o exceed_o fain_o will_v have_v again_o we_o be_v say_v in_o matter_n divine_a to_o love_v those_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v already_o and_o which_o we_o seek_v to_o enjoy_v for_o ever_o which_o point_v though_o some_o other_o may_v miss_v yet_o to_o thou_o so_o great_a a_o doctor_n this_o shall_v not_o have_v be_v unknown_a namely_o that_o none_o can_v love_v god_n unless_o he_o be_v first_o sanctify_v by_o faith_n and_o by_o that_o very_a mean_n do_v indeed_o possess_v god_n who_o he_o love_v for_o until_o thou_o be_v persuade_v in_o thy_o own_o heart_n that_o all_o thy_o sin_n be_v remit_v and_o that_o thou_o be_v eternal_o belove_v of_o god_n thou_o can_v not_o possible_o love_n god_n again_o as_o it_o be_v write_v therefore_o we_o love_v god_n because_o he_o love_v we_o first_o 4.19_o 1._o joh._n 4.19_o now_o it_o follow_v that_o we_o speak_v of_o this_o three_o effect_n or_o work_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o b._n call_v trust_v or_o confidence_n where_o that_o none_o may_v mistake_v he_o he_o understand_v the_o confidence_n of_o grace_n wherein_o i_o can_v but_o bewail_v the_o woeful_a blindness_n of_o this_o nicodemus_n because_o he_o have_v place_v and_o set_v the_o last_o and_o high_a stone_n of_o our_o regeneration_n before_o ever_o he_o once_o lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o repentance_n especial_o see_v that_o it_o be_v most_o unpossible_a for_o any_o one_o to_o obtain_v this_o confidence_n of_o grace_n except_o he_o first_o repent_v himself_o of_o his_o former_a life_n serious_o and_o from_o the_o bottom_n of_o his_o heart_n for_o even_o as_o the_o faith_n of_o knowledge_n namely_o to_o believe_v without_o all_o doubt_n that_o god_n be_v and_o that_o he_o be_v a_o rewarder_n of_o all_o they_o that_o do_v seek_v he_o in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o contrary_o one_o that_o take_v vengeance_n on_o all_o those_o which_o turn_v away_o from_o he_o for_o all_o their_o sin_n and_o wicked_a deed_n that_o ever_o they_o commit_v even_o as_o i_o say_v this_o faith_n must_v of_o necessity_n go_v before_o true_a repentance_n towards_o god_n so_o our_o repentance_n viz._n that_o we_o convert_n from_o our_o own_o way_n unto_o god_n shall_v return_v into_o the_o right_a way_n must_v needs_o go_v before_o the_o faith_n of_o jesus_n christ_n therefore_o this_o be_v the_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o gospel_n of_o god_n and_o the_o gospel_n of_o b._n the_o beginning_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o god_n be_v repentance_n as_o it_o be_v write_v the_o beginning_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n prepare_v you_o the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n viz_o perform_v repentance_n on_o the_o contrary_a b._n bestow_v faith_n upon_o his_o elect_a never_o so_o much_o as_o once_o name_v repentance_n i_o can_v easy_o imagine_v why_o it_o be_v namely_o because_o according_a to_o fleshly_a wisdom_n he_o perhaps_o suppose_v that_o repentance_n be_v a_o companion_n of_o none_o but_o fool_n therefore_o he_o have_v utter_o reject_v it_o as_o not_o well_o beseem_v the_o dignity_n or_o credit_n of_o one_o that_o be_v wise_a o_o vile_a and_o ungracious_a fellow_n sure_o i_o can_v scarce_o hold_v in_o myself_o yet_o i_o will_v refrain_v oh_o wretched_a man_n i_o say_v how_o dare_v thou_o so_o seditiouslie_o disturb_v that_o most_o holy_a order_n which_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n have_v establish_v first_o therefore_o i_o will_v inform_v this_o erroneous_a doctor_n that_o true_a repentance_n towards_o god_n must_v of_o necessity_n go_v before_o the_o faith_n of_o jesus_n christ_n then_o what_o this_o true_a repentance_n towards_o god_n be_v shall_v likewise_o in_o order_n be_v declare_v but_o to_o the_o end_n that_o these_o thing_n more_o clear_o may_v be_v understand_v it_o behoove_v we_o not_o only_o to_o call_v to_o mind_n those_o thing_n which_o have_v be_v abovesaid_a but_o to_o make_v somewhat_o a_o further_a repetition_n of_o the_o whole_a matter_n the_o first_o benefit_n therefore_o which_o god_n vouchsafe_v i_o speak_v only_o of_o those_o blessing_n which_o pertain_v to_o salvation_n be_v the_o seed_n and_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n unto_o this_o outward_a benefit_n and_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n there_o be_v sometime_o add_v a_o certain_a inward_a virtue_n and_o efficacy_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o as_o he_o leave_v some_o in_o unbelief_n so_o he_o incline_v other_o and_o cause_v they_o to_o cleave_v fast_o unto_o the_o truth_n with_o the_o whole_a assent_n of_o their_o mind_n and_o to_o believe_v it_o and_o this_o kind_n of_o faith_n because_o it_o be_v a_o solitary_a or_o barren_a exercise_n of_o the_o understanding_n only_o we_o call_v the_o faith_n of_o knowledge_n and_o such_o like_a faithful_a because_o they_o profess_v the_o faith_n of_o christ_n we_o call_v by_o a_o common_a and_o general_a name_n christian_n now_o after_o this_o the_o holy_a ghost_n cause_v his_o wheel_n as_o it_o be_v to_o run_v about_o the_o second_o time_n go_v to_o his_o work_n again_o and_o of_o those_o which_o be_v believer_n some_o he_o reform_v and_o make_v new_a creature_n other_o he_o reserve_v to_o their_o more_o just_a condemnation_n because_o the_o truth_n which_o they_o know_v they_o obey_v not_o but_o betwixt_o these_o general_a christian_n and_o those_o which_o be_v regenerate_v there_o be_v no_o less_o difference_n then_o betwixt_o the_o altar_n and_o the_o temple_n the_o sanctuary_n and_o the_o porch_n betwixt_o he_o the_o foreskin_n of_o who_o heart_n be_v circumcise_v and_o he_o who_o house_n only_o be_v clean_o

whoremonger_n and_o such_o as_o take_v pleasure_n in_o lie_n but_o in_o the_o reform_n of_o these_o or_o make_v they_o new_a creature_n the_o holy_a ghost_n observe_v this_o order_n first_o he_o mollifi_v or_o soften_v they_o and_o cause_v they_o to_o bewail_v their_o sin_n and_o by_o earnest_a prayer_n to_o make_v sure_a for_o pardon_n and_o with_o restless_a and_o unspeakable_a desire_n to_o seek_v the_o favour_n of_o that_o god_n who_o without_o all_o reason_n they_o have_v offend_v and_o this_o be_v that_o second_o effect_n or_o work_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o our_o regeneration_n which_o b._n himself_o call_v the_o second_o effect_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o teach_v the_o same_o perfect_o that_o he_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o name_v it_o right_o for_o he_o call_v it_o a_o certain_a motion_n or_o action_n of_o the_o will_n unfit_o and_o philosophical_o the_o scripture_n contrary_o call_v it_o repentance_n which_o be_v not_o only_o a_o certain_a motion_n of_o the_o will_n but_o a_o full_a change_n altogether_o of_o the_o whole_a man_n when_o that_o which_o before_o be_v pleasant_a and_o delightful_a
