speak_v and_o say_v unto_o i_o rise_v up_o my_o love_n my_o fair_a one_o say_v the_o spouse_n 5._o we_o ought_v to_o believe_v till_o we_o be_v persuade_v that_o we_o do_v believe_v because_o the_o more_o we_o do_v believe_v the_o more_o we_o shall_v be_v persuade_v to_o believe_v according_a to_o that_o place_n in_o the_o ephesian_n in_o who_o also_o after_o you_o believe_v you_o be_v seal_v with_o the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o promise_n and_o he_o that_o believe_v have_v the_o witness_n though_o there_o be_v more_o to_o be_v say_v to_o this_o last_o scripture_n the_o way_n to_o be_v warm_a be_v not_o only_o to_o ask_v for_o a_o fire_n or_o whether_o there_o be_v a_o fire_n or_o no_o or_o to_o hold_v out_o the_o hand_n towards_o it_o and_o away_o and_o wish_v for_o a_o great_a but_o to_o stand_v close_o to_o that_o fire_n there_o be_v and_o to_o gather_v heat_n 6._o we_o ought_v i_o suppose_v no_o more_o to_o question_v our_o faith_n which_o be_v our_o first_o and_o foundation_n grace_n than_o we_o ought_v to_o question_v christ_n the_o foundation_n of_o our_o faith_n for_o as_o all_o christian_a religion_n be_v destroy_v by_o the_o one_o so_o all_o the_o salvation_n in_o that_o religion_n to_o any_o soul_n in_o particular_a by_o the_o other_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v they_o enter_v not_o in_o because_o of_o unbelief_n and_o again_o the_o word_n do_v not_o profit_v be_v not_o mix_v with_o faith_n in_o they_o that_o hear_v it_o and_o hence_o be_v the_o apostle_n caution_n take_v heed_n lest_o there_o be_v in_o any_o of_o you_o a_o heart_n of_o unbelief_n 7._o it_o be_v satan_n great_a policy_n to_o put_v a_o soul_n upon_o such_o a_o question_n for_o by_o this_o he_o set_v on_o the_o soul_n for_o evidence_n from_o thing_n which_o he_o know_v can_v afford_v little_a but_o a_o questionable_a assurance_n as_o persuasion_n most_o upon_o mark_n and_o sign_n of_o our_o own_o sanctification_n or_o work_n which_o can_v hold_v good_a without_o faith_n itself_o to_o bring_v down_o christ_n upon_o they_o for_o he_o put_v we_o clean_o back_o if_o we_o observe_v we_o be_v prove_v our_o faith_n by_o our_o work_n when_o as_o no_o work_n can_v be_v prove_v solid_o good_a but_o by_o our_o faith_n for_o without_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n we_o know_v that_o every_o piece_n of_o coin_n or_o money_n be_v value_v according_a to_o the_o image_n and_o superscription_n that_o it_o bear_v and_o if_o cesar_n be_v not_o there_o though_o it_o be_v still_o silver_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o coin_v it_o be_v not_o so_o currant_n and_o he_o that_o have_v it_o can_v make_v such_o use_n of_o it_o and_o so_o assure_v himself_o to_o trade_n with_o it_o as_o otherwise_o he_o may_v do_v so_o there_o be_v not_o any_o thing_n of_o sanctification_n currant_n and_o of_o true_a practical_a use_n and_o comfort_n to_o be_v a_o believer_n unless_o jesus_n christ_n be_v there_o and_o the_o image_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v righteousness_n etc._n etc._n or_o true_a holiness_n while_o satan_n puzzle_v we_o in_o question_v our_o faith_n or_o believe_v he_o keep_v we_o off_o from_o believe_v know_v that_o this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v condemn_v already_o we_o be_v first_o to_o believe_v and_o all_o other_o gift_n will_v follow_v etc._n etc._n here_o i_o can_v but_o wonder_v at_o any_o that_o keep_v soul_n in_o act_n of_o preparation_n and_o qualification_n from_o the_o act_n of_o believe_v as_o if_o we_o can_v believe_v too_o sudden_o and_o many_o a_o one_o lose_v some_o degree_n of_o faith_n while_o they_o be_v seek_v it_o thus_o in_o the_o evidence_n of_o their_o work_n for_o while_o faith_n be_v keep_v off_o from_o christ_n and_o the_o soul_n suspend_v faith_n decay_v and_o become_v weak_a and_o weak_a when_o as_o if_o it_o be_v still_o exercise_v upon_o christ_n in_o the_o promise_n it_o will_v soon_o bring_v a_o clear_a and_o more_o undeceivable_a evidence_n with_o it_o then_o can_v any_o other_o way_n be_v minister_v unto_o it_o in_o the_o gospel_n all_o be_v immediate_o call_v to_o believe_v to_o day_n if_o you_o will_v hear_v his_o voice_n sir_n say_v the_o jailor_n what_o must_v i_o do_v to_o be_v save_v believe_v say_v they_o on_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o this_o be_v the_o work_n that_o you_o believe_v on_o he_o who_o he_o have_v send_v say_v christ_n and_o say_v philip_n to_o the_o eunuch_n if_o thou_o believe_v with_o all_o thy_o heart_n thou_o may_v and_o he_o answer_v and_o say_v i_o believe_v so_o as_o i_o shall_v draw_v this_o conclusion_n for_o many_o that_o be_v in_o the_o dark_a in_o this_o point_n both_o preacher_n and_o people_n that_o none_o can_v believe_v too_o hasty_o in_o jesus_n christ_n our_o righteousness_n because_o righteousness_n be_v reveal_v from_o faith_n to_o faith_n and_o while_o we_o believe_v not_o we_o live_v not_o proper_o for_o the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o faith_n and_o while_o we_o believe_v not_o we_o may_v after_o a_o sort_n be_v say_v to_o be_v under_o condemnation_n for_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v condemn_v so_o as_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o stay_v the_o exercise_n of_o our_o faith_n either_o for_o repentance_n or_o humiliation_n or_o any_o other_o grace_n but_o we_o ought_v to_o believe_v that_o we_o may_v have_v these_o for_o faith_n work_v by_o love_n etc._n etc._n and_o add_v to_o your_o faith_n virtue_n say_v the_o apostle_n and_o to_o virtue_n knowledge_n and_o to_o knowledge_n temperance_n and_o to_o temperance_n patience_n and_o to_o patience_n godliness_n and_o to_o godliness_n brotherly_a kindness_n all_o these_o be_v to_o be_v add_v to_o faith_n or_o work_v from_o faith_n nor_o be_v we_o to_o stay_v our_o believe_n till_o we_o be_v assure_v by_o some_o sign_n that_o we_o do_v believe_v we_o must_v believe_v that_o we_o may_v know_v that_o we_o do_v believe_v for_o the_o witness_n come_v by_o believe_v the_o spirit_n bear_v witness_n yet_o to_o these_o i_o allow_v you_o any_o examination_n or_o trial_n of_o your_o faith_n which_o may_v consist_v with_o believe_v well_o i_o shall_v put_v some_o question_n to_o you_o after_o these_o ground_n quest_n be_v faith_n always_o with_o full_a assurance_n answ_n nay_o quest_n can_v you_o conclude_v you_o have_v no_o faith_n because_o you_o have_v no_o full_a assurance_n answ_n nay_o quest_n you_o say_v well_o for_o there_o be_v degree_n of_o believe_v one_o degree_n be_v to_o believe_v another_o be_v to_o be_v assure_v you_o believe_v there_o be_v in_o the_o word_n believer_n of_o several_a age_n some_o be_v call_v little_a one_o weak_a one_o babe_n child_n strong_a man_n some_o be_v such_o as_o have_v be_v sound_a believer_n and_o be_v make_v weak_a through_o sin_n and_o temptation_n and_o ignorance_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o freegrace_n and_o their_o righteousness_n in_o christ_n and_o the_o glorious_a estate_n of_o a_o believer_n under_o grace_n as_o a_o man_n that_o be_v not_o perfect_o heal_v of_o some_o infirmity_n for_o the_o nature_n and_o property_n of_o true_a save_a faith_n which_o i_o tell_v you_o on_o they_o be_v better_o discern_v in_o the_o word_n and_o christ_n then_o in_o the_o soul_n that_o have_v they_o because_o they_o be_v not_o in_o the_o soul_n pure_o but_o with_o mixture_n of_o corruption_n which_o like_o mud_n in_o the_o

own_o righteousness_n but_o in_o christ_n as_o paul_n and_o be_v find_v in_o he_o not_o have_v my_o own_o righteousness_n the_o nature_n and_o property_n of_o true_a save_a faith_n be_v almost_o the_o business_n of_o the_o whole_a new_a testament_n 1._o the_o nature_n of_o faith_n be_v this_o it_o be_v call_v the_o ground_n of_o thing_n hope_v for_o and_o the_o evidence_n of_o thing_n that_o be_v
