may_v soon_o deceive_v himself_o and_o think_v in_o his_o own_o fantasy_n that_o he_o by_o faith_n know_v god_n love_v he_o fear_v he_o and_o belong_v to_o he_o when_o in_o very_a deed_n he_o do_v nothing_o less_o for_o the_o trial_n of_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v a_o very_a godly_a and_o christian_a life_n he_o that_o feel_v his_o heart_n set_v to_o seek_v god_n honour_n and_o study_v to_o

god_n love_v he_o fear_v he_o or_o trust_v in_o he_o some_o peradventure_o fancy_n in_o themselves_o that_o they_o belong_v to_o god_n although_o they_o live_v in_o sin_n and_o so_o they_o come_v to_o the_o church_n and_o show_v themselves_o as_o god_n dear_a child_n but_o st._n john_n say_v plain_o if_o we_o say_v 1_o 1_o john_n 1_o that_o we_o have_v any_o company_n with_o god_n and_o walk_v in_o

hereby_o we_o manif_n st_o know_v the_o child_n of_o god_n from_o the_o child_n of_o the_o devil_n he_o that_o do_v not_o righteous_o be_v not_o the_o child_n of_o god_n nor_o he_o that_o hate_v his_o brother_n deceive_v not_o yourselves_o therefore_o think_v that_o you_o have_v faith_n in_o god_n or_o that_o you_o love_v god_n or_o do_v trust_v in_o he_o or_o do_v fear_v he_o when_o you_o live_v in_o sin_n for_o than_o your_o ungodly_a and_o sinful_a life_n declare_v the_o contrary_a whatsoever_o you_o say_v or_o think_v it_o pertain_v to_o a_o christian_a man_n to_o have_v this_o true_a christian_a faith_n and_o to_o try_v himself_o whether_o he_o have_v it_o or_o no_o and_o to_o know_v what_o belong_v to_o it_o and_o how_o it_o do_v work_v in_o he_o it_o be_v not_o the_o world_n that_o we_o can_v trust_v to_o the_o world_n and_o all_o that_o be_v therein_o be_v but_o vanity_n it_o be_v god_n that_o must_v be_v our_o defence_n and_o protection_n against_o all_o temptation_n of_o wickedness_n and_o sin_n error_n superstition_n idolatry_n and_o all_o evil._n if_o all_o the_o world_n be_v on_o our_o side_n and_o god_n against_o we_o what_o can_v the_o world_n avail_v we_o therefore_o let_v we_o set_v our_o whole_a faith_n and_o trust_n in_o god_n and_o neither_o the_o world_n the_o devil_n nor_o all_o the_o power_n of_o they_o shall_v prevail_v against_o we_o let_v we_o therefore_o good_a christian_a poople_n try_v and_o examine_v our_o faith_n what_o it_o be_v let_v we_o not_o flatter_v ourselves_o but_o look_v upon_o our_o work_n and_o so_o judge_v of_o our_o

thereby_o declare_v our_o faith_n to_o be_v the_o lively_a christian_n faith_n let_v we_o by_o such_o virtue_n as_o aught_o to_o spring_v out_o of_o faith_n show_v our_o election_n to_o be_v sure_a and_o stable_a as_o st._n peter_n teach_v 1._o 2_o pet._n 1._o endeavour_v yourselves_o to_o make_v your_o call_n and_o election_n certain_a by_o good_a work_n and_o also_o he_o say_v minister_n or_o

brotherly_a charity_n love_n so_o shall_v we_o show_v indeed_o that_o we_o have_v the_o very_a lively_a christian_a faith_n and_o may_v so_o both_o certify_v our_o conscience_n the_o better_a that_o we_o be_v in_o the_o right_a faith_n and_o also_o by_o these_o mean_n confirm_v other_o men._n if_o these_o fruit_n do_v not_o follow_v we_o do_v but_o mock_v with_o god_n deceive_v ourselves_o and_o also_o other_o men._n well_o may_v we_o bear_v the_o name_n of_o christian_a man_n but_o we_o do_v lack_v the_o true_a faith_n that_o do_v belong_v thereunto_o for_o the_o true_a faith_n do_v ever_o bring_v forth_o good_a work_n as_o st._n james_n say_v 2._o james_n 2._o show_v i_o thy_o faith_n by_o thy_o deed_n thy_o deed_n and_o work_n must_v be_v a_o open_a testimonial_a of_o thy_o faith_n otherwise_o thy_o faith_n be_v without_o good_a work_v be_v but_o the_o devil_n faith_n the_o faith_n of_o the_o wicked_a a_o fantasy_n of_o faith_n and_o not_o a_o true_a christian_n faith_n and_o like_v as_o the_o devil_n and_o evil_a people_n be_v nothing_o the_o better_a for_o their_o counterfeit_a faith_n but_o it_o be_v unto_o they_o the_o more_o cause_n of_o damnation_n so_o they_o that_o be_v christian_n and_o have_v receive_v knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o of_o christ_n merit_n and_o yet_o of_o a_o set_a purpose_n do_v live_v idle_o without_o good_a work_v think_v the_o name_n of_o a_o naked_a faith_n to_o be_v either_o sufficient_a for_o they_o or_o else_o set_v their_o mind_n upon_o vain_a pleasure_n of_o this_o world_n do_v live_v in_o sin_n without_o repentance_n not_o utter_v the_o fruit_n that_o do_v belong_v to_o such_o a_o high_a profession_n upon_o such_o presumptuous_a person_n and_o wilful_a sinner_n must_v needs_o remain_v the_o great_a vengeance_n of_o god_n and_o eternal_a punishment_n in_o hell_n prepare_v for_o the_o unjust_a and_o wicked_a liver_n therefore_o as_o you_o profess_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n good_a christian_a people_n let_v no_o such_o fantasy_n and_o imagination_n of_o faith_n at_o any_o time_n beguile_v you_o but_o be_v sure_a of_o your_o faith_n try_v it_o by_o your_o live_n look_v upon_o the_o fruit_n that_o come_v of_o it_o mark_v the_o increase_n of_o love_n and_o charity_n by_o it_o towards_o god_n and_o your_o neighbour_n and_o so_o shall_v you_o perceive_v it_o to_o be_v a_o true_a lively_a faith_n if_o you_o feel_v and_o perceive_v such_o a_o faith_n in_o you_o rejoice_v in_o it_o and_o be_v diligent_a to_o maintain_v it_o and_o keep_v it_o still_o in_o you_o let_v it_o be_v daily_o increase_v and_o more_o and_o
