there_o be_v a_o faith_n require_v in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n there_o be_v a_o faith_n require_v in_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n to_o think_v that_o every_o particular_a thing_n be_v order_v by_o it_o there_o be_v also_o a_o faith_n in_o all_o the_o threaten_n of_o god_n now_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o propound_v when_o the_o scripture_n come_v to_o propound_v any_o thing_n it_o propound_v it_o thus_o and_o no_o more_o as_o you_o see_v in_o moses_n he_o write_v nothing_o but_o 1._o in_o the_o beginning_n god_n make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o the_o apostle_n write_v such_o a_o thing_n be_v do_v 2._o jesus_n christ_n be_v bear_v of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n thus_o and_o thus_o he_o do_v now_o when_o the_o naked_a object_n be_v propound_v other_o writer_n what_o they_o deliver_v or_o write_v be_v rational_a they_o use_v reason_n and_o argument_n to_o convince_v man_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o they_o deliver_v but_o when_o the_o scripture_n set_v down_o any_o proposition_n of_o faith_n it_o do_v but_o bare_o propound_v they_o for_o there_o be_v the_o majesty_n of_o god_n and_o authority_n of_o god_n in_o they_o to_o confirm_v they_o but_o now_o here_o you_o will_v demand_v quest._n the_o proposition_n be_v but_o naked_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o scripture_n what_o will_v enable_v a_o man_n to_o believe_v it_o i_o answer_v answ._n that_o certain_o there_o be_v a_o mighty_a power_n that_o go_v out_o from_o god_n &_o from_o christ_n that_o enable_v thou_o to_o believe_v with_o this_o efficacy_n that_o where_o the_o object_n be_v set_v before_o thou_o there_o go_v out_o a_o power_n from_o he_o to_o work_v faith_n in_o thy_o heart_n whereby_o thou_o true_o believe_v it_o and_o so_o it_o appear_v in_o thy_o life_n we_o think_v we_o believe_v those_o thing_n but_o our_o life_n do_v manifest_v the_o contrary_a namely_o that_o there_o be_v not_o a_o powerful_a faith_n wrought_v in_o we_o for_o all_o the_o error_n of_o our_o life_n though_o we_o observe_v they_o not_o arise_v from_o hence_o that_o these_o principle_n be_v not_o thorough_o believe_v if_o they_o be_v it_o can_v not_o be_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o inconvenience_n in_o the_o life_n of_o man_n therefore_o consider_v if_o this_o faith_n be_v wrought_v in_o thou_o whether_o such_o a_o power_n have_v go_v out_o to_o work_v such_o a_o faith_n that_o have_v change_v thy_o whole_a course_n as_o it_o will_v do_v if_o it_o be_v once_o wrought_v in_o thou_o by_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n so_o also_o consider_v whether_o there_o have_v a_o virtue_n go_v out_o from_o he_o to_o work_v love_n in_o thy_o heart_n to_o the_o lord_n for_o otherwise_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o be_v able_a to_o love_n god_n or_o to_o come_v near_o he_o for_o all_o love_n rise_v from_o similitude_n there_o must_v be_v a_o agreement_n and_o similitude_n between_o those_o two_o that_o love_n now_o every_o man_n by_o nature_n be_v as_o contrary_a to_o god_n pure_a nature_n as_o fire_n be_v to_o water_n and_o without_o a_o almighty_a power_n to_o change_v his_o nature_n and_o to_o work_v a_o particular_a affection_n of_o love_n in_o he_o he_o can_v never_o be_v able_a to_o love_n god_n therefore_o it_o be_v the_o baptism_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 11._o i_o will_v baptize_v you_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n that_o be_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v fire_n 16._o i_o will_v multiply_v thy_o sorrow_n and_o thy_o conception_n that_o be_v the_o sorrow_n of_o thy_o conception_n now_o love_n be_v as_o fire_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o one_o fire_n must_v beget_v another_o and_o therefore_o you_o have_v it_o in_o the_o common_a proverb_n love_n be_v a_o thing_n that_o can_v be_v buy_v with_o mountain_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n yet_o if_o thou_o be_v in_o christ_n there_o go_v out_o a_o virtue_n from_o he_o that_o stamp_v upon_o thy_o heart_n this_o holy_a affection_n that_o breed_v in_o thou_o this_o holy_a fire_n of_o love_n so_o that_o thy_o heart_n cleave_v to_o he_o thou_o love_v he_o with_o as_o true_a with_o as_o genuine_a as_o natural_a and_o as_o sensible_a love_n as_o thou_o love_v any_o friend_n as_o thou_o love_v any_o creature_n in_o the_o world_n consider_v if_o this_o be_v wrought_v in_o thou_o or_o no._n and_o so_o for_o thy_o knowledge_n there_o be_v also_o a_o power_n in_o it_o consider_v whether_o any_o such_o virtue_n have_v go_v out_o from_o christ_n to_o make_v the_o knowledge_n which_o thou_o have_v powerful_a you_o will_v say_v quest._n what_o be_v that_o that_o be_v answ._n to_o bring_v on_o these_o truth_n which_o thy_o heart_n assent_v unto_o to_o bring_v they_o with_o that_o evidence_n and_o fullness_n of_o demonstration_n that_o thou_o shall_v yield_v unto_o they_o and_o practice_v they_o according_a to_o thy_o knowledge_n belove_a there_o be_v much_o knowledge_n among_o we_o but_o who_o practise_v according_a to_o his_o knowledge_n 21._o we_o know_v god_n but_o we_o glorify_v he_o not_o as_o god_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o there_o have_v not_o go_v a_o power_n with_o that_o knowledge_n to_o make_v it_o lively_a and_o effectual_a to_o pass_v through_o all_o the_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o to_o over-rule_v they_o for_o if_o there_o be_v such_o knowledge_n it_o will_v always_o draw_v affection_n and_o practice_v with_o it_o so_o likewise_o consider_v whether_o there_o have_v go_v a_o power_n from_o he_o to_o mortify_v thy_o lust_n 24_o whosoever_o be_v in_o christ_n have_v crucify_v the_o flesh_n with_o the_o affection_n and_o lust_n not_o to_o lay_v they_o asleep_a only_o but_o to_o mortify_v and_o subdue_v they_o see_v likewise_o whether_o there_o have_v a_o power_n go_v out_o from_o christ_n to_o help_v thou_o to_o overcome_v the_o world_n 16._o the_o lust_n of_o thy_o eye_n the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o pride_n of_o life_n for_o

the_o prayer_n of_o a_o saint_n and_o the_o prayer_n of_o a_o wicked_a man_n it_o may_v be_v if_o you_o look_v upon_o the_o petition_n or_o whatsoever_o be_v in_o the_o prayer_n itself_o you_o shall_v

to_o be_v hear_v for_o that_o make_v he_o fervent_a this_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v and_o also_o he_o will_v have_v it_o faithful_a james_n the_o first_o when_o the_o apostle_n exhort_v they_o to_o prayer_n 6_o if_o any_o man_n want_v wisdom_n say_v he_o let_v he_o ask_v it_o of_o god_n but_o then_o mark_v he_o careful_o put_v in_o this_o condition_n see_v that_o he_o pray_v in_o faith_n that_o be_v believe_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v do_v unto_o he_o now_o this_o faith_n include_v repentance_n for_o no_o man_n can_v believe_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v hear_v except_o he_o make_v his_o heart_n perfect_a with_o god_n if_o he_o allow_v any_o sin_n in_o himself_o he_o can_v believe_v upon_o any_o good_a ground_n therefore_o when_o i_o say_v it_o must_v be_v faithful_a that_o also_o be_v include_v we_o must_v 18._o regard_v no_o wickedness_n in_o our_o heart_n for_o in_o such_o a_o case_n the_o lord_n hear_v not_o 31._o he_o hear_v not_o sinner_n so_o that_o this_o you_o must_v remember_v first_o the_o person_n must_v be_v righteous_a and_o the_o prayer_n must_v be_v fervent_a and_o faithful_a second_o con_v the_o other_o condition_n you_o shall_v hear_v in_o the_o text_n it_o must_v be_v according_a to_o his_o will_n you_o must_v not_o think_v whatsoever_o you_o ask_v if_o you_o ask_v it_o loose_o at_o god_n hand_n that_o it_o shall_v present_o be_v grant_v you_o no_o

ask_v it_o be_v deny_v it_o with_o this_o reason_n you_o know_v not_o what_o you_o ask_v 22._o likewise_o to_o sit_v at_o his_o right_a hand_n and_o at_o his_o left_a in_o heaven_n which_o be_v another_o request_n of_o the_o disciple_n he_o put_v they_o by_o with_o this_o you_o understand_v not_o what_o you_o ask_v of_o the_o father_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v according_a to_o his_o

you_o know_v the_o foolish_a virgin_n knock_v &_o it_o be_v not_o open_v to_o they_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o it_o because_o they_o ask_v when_o the_o time_n be_v pass_v for_o there_o be_v a_o

in_o time_n it_o be_v a_o condition_n that_o shall_v be_v careful_o think_v on_o by_o we_o for_o for_o the_o most_o part_n we_o fly_v to_o prayer_n as_o joab_n do_v to_o the_o altar_n he_o go_v not_o
