true_o repent_v he_o must_v seek_v to_o mend_v it_o we_o see_v in_o nature_n that_o if_o a_o bone_n be_v set_v awry_o awry_o the_o surgeon_n have_v no_o way_n to_o help_v it_o but_o to_o break_v it_o

conceive_v new_a grief_n shed_v fresh_a tear_n and_o practice_v all_o the_o good_a rule_n of_o penitency_n we_o see_v in_o reason_n if_o a_o man_n come_v to_o a_o great_a ditch_n to_o leap_v over_o if_o he_o miss_v his_o rise_n yet_o he_o will_v go_v ditch_n back_o again_o and_o again_o and_o take_v his_o best_a advantage_n rather_o than_o he_o will_v fall_v in_o the_o midst_n even_o so_o must_v

other_o grace_n the_o second_o thing_n we_o be_v to_o consider_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o repentance_n be_v the_o order_n of_o it_o compare_v with_o other_o grace_n for_o this_o i_o conceive_v that_o in_o order_n of_o nature_n faith_n be_v before_o repentance_n but_o ordinary_o repentance_n show_v itself_o before_o faith_n in_o the_o life_n of_o a_o christian._n even_o as_o when_o a_o candle_n be_v bring_v into_o a_o room_n the_o candle_n light_n first_o show_v itself_o before_o the_o candle_n come_v into_o candle_n the_o room_n though_o it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v the_o candle_n before_o there_o be_v light_a so_o it_o be_v with_o these_o two_o grace_n faith_n and_o repentance_n first_o there_o must_v be_v faith_n before_o there_o can_v be_v repentance_n and_o yet_o common_o we_o see_v the_o fruit_n of_o repentance_n before_o we_o can_v see_v the_o fruit_n of_o faith_n and_o so_o they_o be_v usual_o so_o place_v in_o the_o scripture_n act._n 20._o 21._o repentance_n towards_o god_n and_o faith_n towards_o our_o 21._o lord_n jesus_n and_o heb._n 6._o 1._o say_v he_o not_o lay_v again_o 1._o the_o foundation_n of_o repentance_n from_o dead_a work_n and_o of_o faith_n towards_o god_n now_o that_o faith_n be_v before_o repentance_n in_o order_n of_o grace_n it_o be_v make_v probable_a by_o this_o one_o reason_n in_o stead_n of_o many_o repentance_n as_o we_o know_v be_v a_o sanctify_a grace_n of_o god_n for_o no_o man_n can_v repent_v unless_o he_o hate_v sin_n and_o no_o man_n can_v hate_v sin_n unless_o he_o be_v sanctify_v but_o there_o can_v be_v no_o sanctify_a grace_n in_o a_o christian_a without_o faith_n argument_n heb._n 11._o 6._o but_o without_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n for_o he_o that_o come_v to_o god_n must_v believe_v that_o he_o be_v 6._o and_o that_o he_o be_v a_o rewarder_n of_o those_o who_o diligent_o seek_v he_o so_o then_o we_o see_v that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o repentance_n without_o faith_n and_o faith_n in_o order_n of_o nature_n be_v before_o repentance_n so_o it_o may_v be_v a_o general_a comfort_n to_o a_o man_n that_o howsoever_o he_o do_v not_o feel_v faith_n in_o himself_o yet_o he_o may_v assure_v himself_o that_o he_o have_v faith_n if_o he_o have_v repentance_n for_o his_o sin_n and_o a_o desire_n to_o reform_v himself_o from_o a_o sorrow_n and_o shame_n that_o he_o have_v thus_o long_o offend_v god_n because_o there_o be_v no_o repentance_n without_o faith_n therefore_o be_v assure_v whosoever_o thou_o be_v if_o there_o be_v a_o repentance_n and_o humiliation_n for_o sin_n make_v no_o doubt_n of_o thy_o faith_n though_o as_o i_o say_v thou_o do_v not_o feel_v it_o see_v faith_n go_v before_o repentance_n now_o for_o the_o better_a consideration_n of_o this_o we_o must_v know_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n and_o true_a repentance_n first_o the_o act_n or_o work_n of_o true_a faith_n be_v faith_n general_o to_o believe_v the_o promise_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o all_o man_n who_o repent_v and_o believe_v shall_v be_v save_v the_o second_o act_n or_o work_n of_o faith_n be_v to_o believe_v that_o the_o promise_n be_v propose_v
