A75536	Comfort for beleevers about their sinnes & troubles. In a treatise shevving. That true beleevers, how weake soever in faith, should not be opprest, or perplext in heart; by any thing whatever befalls them; either in sinne, or afflictions. Together with divers other comfortable observations; gathered out of that counsell, given by Christ to his Apostles: and in them, to all beleevers. In John chap. 14. verses 1,2,3,4. / By John Archer, Master of Art, sometime preacher of All-hallowes Lumbard-street. London.	Archer, John, Master of Art.	1645 (1645)	Wing A3612; Thomason E289_7; ESTC R200122	80,025	82

what_o or_o else_o the_o heart_n be_v comfort_v discoursive_o when_o such_o strong_a thing_n be_v present_v by_o the_o understanding_n as_o weaken_v and_o exceed_v the_o cause_n of_o trouble_n as_o when_o the_o wife_n be_v comfort_v by_o consider_v her_o husband_n love_n his_o promise_n faithfullnes_n ability_n to_o right_v her_o etc._n etc._n though_o now_o absent_a from_o she_o now_o this_o

yea_o &_o sometime_o putt_v fresh_a ground_n before_o we_o and_o partly_o it_o be_v our_o work_n whilst_o we_o use_v our_o memory_n &_o judgement_n we_o partly_o we_o &_o will_n to_o consider_v of_o

3._o mean_v express_v be_v to_o believe_v in_o christ_n as_o in_o god_n which_o be_v express_v in_o the_o text_n be_v to_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v illustrate_v by_o its_o

you_o do_v believe_v in_o god_n the_o indicative_a mood_n &_o do_v you_o believe_v in_o i_o for_o the_o word_n may_v be_v indicative_a or_o imparative_fw-it for_o if_o it_o be_v both_o

he_o direct_v they_o to_o believe_v in_o himself_o as_o they_o do_v in_o god_n not_o so_o much_o in_o respect_n to_o himself_o as_o his_o due_n &_o their_o duty_n to_o he_o though_o it_o be_v so_o but_o in_o respect_n to_o they_o as_o aspecial_a mean_n &_o help_n to_o they_o against_o trouble_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v though_o you_o believe_v in_o god_n &_o that_o will_v help_v you_o some_o what_o against_o trouble_n yet_o proceed_v to_o believe_v in_o i_o also_o for_o this_o will_v help_v you_o much_o more_o now_o by_o believe_v in_o god_n he_o mean_v the_o father_n not_o exclude_v faith_n in_o christ_n as_o by_o believe_v in_o christ_n he_o exclud_v not_o faith_n in_o what._n believe_v in_o god_n what._n god_n the_o father_n &_o holy_a ghost_n also_o but_o by_o believe_v in_o god_n the_o father_n be_v mean_v the_o faith_n they_o have_v before_o christ_n incarnation_n which_o be_v call_v believe_v in_o god_n the_o father_n first_o because_o though_o they_o have_v some_o knowledge_n of_o &_o respect_n to_o the_o messiah_n yet_o it_o be_v so_o dark_a &_o with_o such_o want_n of_o distinct_a knowledge_n incarnation_n why_o mean_v of_o faith_n before_o the_o incarnation_n of_o he_o as_o that_o it_o may_v be_v count_v as_o if_o they_o have_v not_o know_v he_o but_o god_n only_o therefore_o the_o disciple_n hitherto_o be_v say_v to_o have_v ask_v nothing_o in_o his_o name_n they_o do_v not_o understand_v so_o much_o of_o he_o so_o their_o faith_n be_v rather_o in_o god_n then_o in_o he_o for_o how_o can_v they_o believe_v in_o he_o of_o who_o they_o have_v not_o hear_v second_o because_o till_o christ_n do_v come_v &_o finish_v the_o work_n he_o be_v but_o the_o father_n promise_n &_o so_o the_o faith_n which_o look_v on_o he_o be_v foot_v only_o on_o god_n the_o father_n inasmuch_o as_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o christ_n but_o god_n the_o father_n promise_n and_o so_o it_o be_v fit_o call_v a_o believe_a in_o god_n now_o by_o believe_v in_o christ_n be_v mean_v the_o faith_n which_o be_v since_o christ_n w●at_n believe_v in_o c●●●●t_a w●at_n incarnation_n which_o be_v call_v believe_v in_o christ_n both_o because_o he_o

father_n promise_v &_o so_o now_o we_o believe_v not_o in_o the_o father_n for_o he_o promise_v but_o we_o believe_v in_o he_o who_o the_o father_n promise_v before_o we_o believe_v in_o god_n the_o father_n who_o promise_v a_o redeemer_n shall_v come_v but_o now_o we_o believe_v in_o christ_n who_o be_v come_v &_o have_v redeem_v now_o these_o disciple_n be_v direct_v to_o believe_v in_o christ_n not_o because_o they_o have_v not_o at_o all_o do_v it_o yet_o for_o they_o have_v faith_n in_o christ_n before_o now_o but_o because_o as_o yet_o their_o knowledge_n of_o &_o say_v in_o christ_n be_v but_o dark_a &_o weak_a they_o have_v but_o slender_a &_o general_a knowledge_n and_o faith_n of_o he_o wherefore_o they_o be_v direct_v to_o increase_v their_o knowledge_n and_o say_v in_o christ_n as_o a_o mean_n to_o keep_v they_o from_o trouble_n of_o heart_n so_o that_o one_o notable_a mean_n to_o fence_v the_o heart_n against_o trouble_n be_v faith_n for_o though_o it_o be_v

present_v to_o reason_n those_o ground_n of_o comfort_n without_o faith_n reason_n oft_o can_v see_v any_o ground_n so_o strong_a as_o those_o of_o trouble_n but_o faith_n show_v they_o as_o that_o

18._o though_o these_o thing_n be_v absent_a &_o far_o of_o yet_o faith_n make_v they_o present_a and_o nigh_o as_o a_o prospective_n glass_n do_v &_o it_o show_v they_o in_o their_o life_n &_o
