that_o do_v but_o delude_v and_o mock_v and_o intend_v not_o to_o give_v what_o he_o speak_v of_o and_o reveal_v now_o the_o soul_n begin_v to_o have_v better_a thought_n of_o god_n and_o to_o think_v that_o he_o be_v kind_a and_o real_a and_o whereas_o before_o it_o look_v upon_o the_o thing_n of_o christ_n as_o of_o no_o value_n and_o care_v not_o for_o the_o knowledge_n of_o they_o now_o it_o

for_o his_o name_n sake_n now_o say_v david_n as_o one_o that_o be_v draw_v after_o christ_n my_o reins_o instruct_v i_o in_o the_o night_n season_n the_o reins_o be_v the_o seat_n of_o the_o

to_o give_v glory_n to_o god_n it_o be_v to_o give_v a_o praise_n and_o commendation_n of_o his_o work_n unto_o he_o which_o be_v to_o set_v out_o the_o attribute_n lively_a which_o he_o have_v put_v

he_o will_v never_o have_v speak_v that_o i_o shall_v have_v have_v a_o child_n and_o not_o have_v do_v it_o and_o he_o will_v not_o have_v make_v i_o believe_v that_o all_o the_o generation_n of_o

commend_v one_o another_o so_o when_o the_o soul_n begin_v to_o commend_v god_n and_o can_v tell_v how_o to_o think_v so_o and_o so_o of_o god_n as_o unbelief_n suggest_v than_o he_o begin_v to_o love_v and_o that_o indeed_o be_v a_o beginning_n of_o faith_n the_o papist_n tell_v we_o that_o faith_n be_v unformed_a and_o as_o a_o body_n without_o a_o soul_n until_o there_o be_v love_n that_o be_v a_o error_n for_o the_o formal_a act_n of_o faith_n be_v in_o the_o understanding_n to_o assent_v which_o be_v not_o comptiable_a unto_o the_o will_n and_o affection_n but_o in_o this_o sense_n much_o may_v be_v say_v concern_v love_n though_o it_o give_v not_o a_o philosophical_a yet_o it_o give_v a_o divine_a be_v unto_o faith_n that_o be_v it_o put_v a_o excellency_n upon_o it_o whatever_o come_v from_o love_n unto_o god_n be_v thereby_o you_o know_v make_v more_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n and_o this_o love_n or_o desire_v of_o god_n be_v necessary_a both_o to_o make_v a_o

have_v be_v and_o that_o man_n that_o get_v our_o love_n get_v our_o trust_n that_o therefore_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n which_o faith_n do_v in_o the_o will_n it_o beget_v a_o pious_a affection_n and_o like_n of_o the_o goodness_n in_o god_n and_o the_o goodness_n that_o be_v in_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v promise_v by_o he_o unto_o we_o it_o be_v not_o say_v the_o soul_n i_o perceive_v now_o such_o a_o hardness_n and_o such_o a_o ill_a condition_n to_o be_v marry_v to_o jesus_n christ_n as_o i_o think_v of_o before_o it_o be_v not_o a_o way_n that_o bring_v with_o it_o so_o many_o

promise_n the_o understanding_n say_v i_o do_v very_o that_o these_o thing_n be_v true_a you_o do_v well_o say_v the_o will_n hold_v you_o there_o hold_v fast_o that_o word_n that_o be_v a_o word_n worthy_a of_o all_o acceptation_n receive_v that_o rather_o than_o any_o thing_n as_o a_o steward_n let_v a_o lease_n unto_o a_o tenant_n and_o afterward_o bring_v it_o to_o the_o grand-lord_n and_o he_o take_v cognizance_n of_o it_o and_z gives_z consent_n to_o it_o so_o the_o understanding_n bring_v the_o promise_n to_o the_o soul_n and_o say_v i_o have_v believe_v these_o thing_n to_o be_v

the_o desire_n to_o be_v after_o he_o three_o where_o ever_o there_o be_v faith_n there_o be_v love_n even_o a_o high_a esteem_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o god_n the_o father_n in_o he_o and_o a_o

there_o be_v a_o love_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o so_o you_o have_v it_o describe_v in_o rom._n 4.21_o that_o abraham_n do_v believe_v and_o give_v glory_n unto_o god_n while_o he_o be_v

in_o all_o that_o ever_o he_o say_v and_o do_v what_o ever_o become_v of_o the_o soul_n nay_o say_v a_o believer_n in_o this_o case_n the_o fault_n be_v not_o in_o god_n but_o in_o i_o the_o reason_n lie_v not_o in_o any_o want_n of_o love_n in_o he_o but_o in_o the_o folly_n and_o carelessness_n of_o my_o own_o spirit_n the_o reason_n why_o i_o want_v any_o thing_n be_v not_o because_o i_o
