our_o good_a that_o god_n send_v he_o to_o be_v bread_n and_o water_n of_o life_n unto_o we_o that_o we_o may_v live_v through_o he_o god_n send_v he_o to_o be_v our_o mediator_n our_o saviour_n our_o

building_n and_o top_n stone_n of_o our_o salvation_n 1_o cor._n 3.11_o other_o foundation_n can_v no_o man_n lay_v then_o that_o be_v lay_v which_o be_v jesus_n christ_n to_o take_v the_o lord_n christ_n to_o be_v our_o prophet_n to_o be_v our_o king_n to_o be_v our_o high_a priest_n to_o be_v all_o in_o all_o unto_o we_o three_o it_o be_v to_o rely_v upon_o he_o and_o trust_v in_o he_o for_o the_o removal_n of_o all_o our_o sin_n supply_v of_o all_o our_o want_n and_o investment_n of_o we_o in_o his_o own_o righteousness_n this_o be_v to_o believe_v in_o the_o name_n or_o in_o the_o son_n and_o to_o depend_v upon_o he_o for_o redemption_n for_o sanctification_n for_o reconciliation_n for_o adoption_n for_o salvation_n so_o than_o you_o see_v the_o point_n be_v that_o believe_v lie_v

all_o our_o sufficiency_n be_v from_o he_o if_o we_o be_v sufficient_v of_o ourselves_o to_o think_v any_o thing_n of_o ourselves_o as_o good_a but_o our_o sufficiency_n be_v of_o god_n sure_o we_o

the_o further_o clear_v of_o the_o point_n know_v first_o that_o as_o god_n command_v we_o to_o believe_v so_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o give_v we_o faith_n mat._n 12.21_o it_o be_v say_v in_o he_o

of_o ourselves_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n none_o but_o god_n can_v give_v christ_n and_o none_o but_o god_n can_v give_v power_n to_o believe_v in_o christ_n as_o faith_n be_v the_o command_n of_o god_n so_o faith_n be_v likewise_o the_o work_n of_o god_n joh._n 6.29_o this_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n that_o you_o believe_v on_o he_o who_o he_o have_v send_v that_o be_v the_o first_o

and_o ordain_v for_o that_o very_a purpose_n and_o therefore_o the_o gospel_n be_v call_v faith_n gal._n 1.23_o speak_v of_o paul_n that_o he_o which_o persecute_v we_o in_o time_n past_a now_o preach_v the_o faith_n which_o once_o he_o destroy_v preach_v the_o faith_n that_o be_v the_o gospel_n which_o work_v faith_n and_o be_v the_o mean_n that_o god_n use_v to_o work_v faith_n in_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n the_o brazen_a serpent_n be_v appoint_v of_o god_n to_o cure_v the_o stinging_n of_o the_o fiery_a serpent_n no_o other_o serpent_n will_v do_v it_o nor_o no_o other_o mean_n will_v do_v it_o if_o they_o have_v use_v all_o the_o physician_n in_o the_o world_n they_o can_v not_o have_v do_v it_o but_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n which_o god_n have_v appoint_v so_o no_o other_o word_n will_v work_v it_o but_o the_o gospel_n which_o he_o have_v appoint_v to_o work_v faith_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n tell_v you_o that_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v hear_v of_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v appoint_v by_o god_n for_o that_o very_a end_n three_o the_o lord_n he_o do_v accompany_v his_o word_n with_o his_o spirit_n to_o make_v it_o effectual_a the_o word_n without_o the_o spirit_n will_v not_o be_v effectual_a and_o therefore_o god_n do_v accompany_v his_o word_n with_o his_o spirit_n that_o it_o may_v be_v effectual_a to_o work_v faith_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o spirit_n be_v call_v the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n 2_o cor._n 4.13_o we_o have_v faith_n the_o apostle_n the_o same_o spirit_n of_o faith_n it_o be_v call_v the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n because_o by_o the_o gospel_n it_o do_v work_v faith_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o merrand_n woman_n and_o gal._n 3.2_o this_o will_v i_o know_v of_o you_o say_v the_o apostle_n receive_v you_o the_o spirit_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n or_o by_o the_o hear_n of_o faith_n why_o you_o hear_v the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n the_o gospel_n and_o by_o the_o hear_n of_o faith_n you_o receive_v the_o spirit_n for_o the_o gospel_n be_v the_o ministration_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o chariot_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o god_n do_v by_o the_o gospel_n convey_v the_o spirit_n into_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n and_o by_o the_o spirit_n work_v faith_n in_o their_o soul_n four_o the_o lord_n command_v thing_n that_o be_v hard_a for_o we_o yea_o impossible_a unto_o we_o that_o so_o we_o may_v seek_v to_o he_o to_o who_o nothing_o be_v impossible_a luke_n 1.37_o for_o with_o god_n nothing_o shall_v be_v impossible_a no_o word_n be_v impossible_a to_o god_n whatever_o he_o have_v say_v he_o be_v able_a to_o make_v it_o good_a and_o you_o know_v in_o the_o gospel_n that_o blind_a bartemeus_fw-la he_o seek_v unto_o christ_n for_o the_o cure_n of_o his_o eye_n the_o blind_a man_n in_o joh._n 9_o that_o be_v bear_v blind_a his_o eye_n be_v open_v so_o we_o that_o be_v bear_v blind_a and_o bear_v dead_a still-born_a without_o grace_n without_o faith_n without_o spiritual_a life_n the_o lord_n command_v we_o to_o believe_v that_o we_o may_v look_v to_o he_o to_o convey_v life_n and_o work_v grace_n and_o faith_n in_o our_o soul_n but_o five_o there_o be_v in_o the_o gospel_n the_o offer_n of_o christ_n to_o sinner_n you_o shall_v see_v it_o clear_a in_o 13_o act_n that_o the_o offer_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v offer_v in_o the_o gospel_n and_o tender_v unto_o sinner_n v._o 26._o man_n and_o brethren_n child_n of_o the_o stock_n of_o abraham_n and_o whosoever_o among_o you_o fear_v god_n to_o you_o be_v the_o word_n of_o this_o salvation_n send_v to_o you_o it_o be_v send_v and_o v._o 38._o be_v it_o know_v unto_o you_o therefore_o man_n and_o brethren_n that_o through_o this_o man_n be_v preach_v unto_o you_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o in_o the_o 46._o and_o 47._o verse_n paul_n and_o barnabas_n wax_v bold_a and_o say_v it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n shall_v first_o have_v be_v speak_v to_o you_o but_o see_v you_o put_v it_o from_o you_o and_o judge_v yourselves_o unworthy_a of_o everlasting_a life_n lo_o we_o turn_v to_o the_o gentile_n for_o so_o have_v the_o lord_n command_v we_o say_v i_o have_v set_v thou_o to_o be_v a_o light_n to_o the_o gentile_n so_o that_o christ_n and_o salvation_n and_o all_o spiritual_a mercy_n be_v offer_v and_o tender_v in_o the_o gospel_n unto_o we_o unto_o we_o gentile_n unto_o we_o sinner_n and_o sure_o such_o a_o offer_n be_v worthy_a of_o acceptation_n this_o very_a offer_n have_v some_o efficacy_n and_o virtue_n in_o it_o to_o stir_v up_o soul_n to_o receive_v christ_n 1_o tim._n 1.15_o this_o be_v a_o faithful_a say_n and_o worthy_a of_o all_o acceptation_n that_o jesus_n christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o save_v sinner_n o_o it_o be_v a_o faithful_a

spirit_n in_o the_o heart_n then_o it_o be_v a_o sound_a heart_n there_o may_v be_v seem_a grace_n and_o seem_a comfort_n but_o these_o do_v not_o cause_v soundness_n take_v brass_n tin_n cooper_n let_v it_o be_v silver_v over_o by_o the_o art_n of_o man_n this_o be_v not_o sound_a it_o be_v not_o currant_n money_n so_o many_o have_v part_n and_o they_o may_v have_v seem_a grace_n and_o seem_a

false_a peace_n and_o false_a joy_n but_o you_o read_v of_o these_o wrought_v by_o the_o spirit_n and_o love_v shed_v abroad_o in_o the_o heart_n by_o the_o spirit_n you_o read_v of_o a_o lively_a

when_o grace_n be_v real_a in_o the_o heart_n and_o comfort_n be_v real_a in_o the_o heart_n and_o there_o be_v a_o real_a truth_n in_o they_o then_o the_o heart_n be_v sound_a and_o so_o soundness_n be_v oppose_v to_o the_o fancy_n conceit_n and_o dream_n of_o man_n and_o their_o mistake_n but_o their_o heart_n be_v rot_v notwithstanding_o all_o their_o dream_n and_o fancy_n five_o soundness_n of_o heart_n do_v lie_v in_o sincerity_n let_v my_o heart_n be_v sound_a in_o thy_o statute_n let_v it_o be_v sincere_a and_o upright_a and_o so_o some_o read_v the_o word_n and_o the_o word_n

heart_n where_o there_o be_v hypocrisy_n in_o man_n and_o woman_n there_o be_v a_o unsound_a heart_n there_o be_v a_o rot_a heart_n the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o love_n without_o dissimulation_n rom._n 12.9_o so_o all_o must_v be_v without_o dissimulation_n where_o there_o be_v soundness_n and_o here_o both_o the_o end_n and_o the_o mean_n and_o the_o manner_n be_v respect_v first_o where_o the_o

likewise_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o mean_n a_o sound_a heart_n will_v use_v all_o the_o mean_n psal_n 119.6_o then_o shall_v i_o not_o be_v confound_v when_o i_o have_v respect_n to_o all_o thy_o
