work_v eternal_a rest_n and_o peace_n but_o how_o do_v this_o follow_n faith_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o eternal_a quiet_a and_o rest_v from_o our_o labour_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n ergo_fw-la it_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o affiance_n and_o rest_a upon_o christ_n here_o in_o this_o life_n for_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o that_o which_o cause_v the_o one_o shall_v also_o cause_v the_o other_o but_o if_o in_o your_o conclusion_n when_o you_o say_v faith_n be_v not_o a_o rest_n you_o mean_v it_o be_v not_o that_o eternal_a rest_n what_o be_v that_o to_o i_o who_o define_v not_o faith_n by_o such_o a_o rest_n so_o then_o your_o therefore_o either_o conclude_v beside_o the_o question_n or_o be_v infer_v upon_o no_o premise_n deserve_v of_o i_o no_o answer_n at_o all_o yet_o to_o take_v away_o all_o scruple_n let_v we_o see_v what_o may_v be_v say_v for_o it_o bellarmine_n to_o prove_v that_o affiance_n be_v a_o effect_n of_o faith_n 6._o de_fw-fr iustif_a

assurance_n nevertheless_o let_v we_o examine_v those_o place_n several_o and_o particular_o the_o first_o be_v that_o of_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o ephesian_n 3.12_o eph._n 3.12_o in_o who_o we_o have_v boldness_n and_o entrance_n with_o confidence_n by_o the_o faith_n of_o he_o whence_o it_o follow_v say_v he_o if_o confidence_n or_o affiance_n be_v by_o faith_n that_o faith_n be_v not_o

that_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o confidence_n oftentimes_o signify_v persuasion_n or_o assurance_n be_v derive_v of_o a_o verb_n that_o signify_v firm_o to_o be_v persuade_v as_o where_o the_o apostle_n say_v 2.19_o rom._n 2.19_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d thou_o strong_o persuade_v thyself_o that_o thou_o be_v a_o guide_n of_o the_o blind_a 1.25_o phil._n 1.25_o and_o again_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d this_o be_o i_o well_o assure_v of_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a here_o to_o understand_v it_o of_o my_o affiance_n second_o grant_v that_o by_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d this_o affiance_n be_v mean_v yet_o do_v it_o not_o follow_v that_o it_o be_v a_o effect_n of_o justify_v faith_n see_v by_o faith_n not_o justify_v but_o historical_a faith_n may_v be_v understand_v which_o be_v the_o mean_n by_o which_o we_o grow_v unto_o affiance_n last_o let_v it_o be_v far_o yield_v that_o both_o by_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d affiance_n and_o by_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d justify_v faith_n be_v mean_v yet_o may_v affiance_n this_o notwithstanding_o be_v that_o faith_n neither_o will_v any_o such_o absurdity_n ensue_v thereon_o for_o as_o when_o you_o say_v we_o be_v assure_v by_o faith_n you_o will_v think_v yourself_o wrong_v if_o i_o shall_v infer_v thereupon_o that_o faith_n be_v not_o assurance_n but_o the_o cause_n thereof_o or_o that_o otherwise_o the_o sense_n will_v be_v we_o be_v assure_v by_o assurance_n so_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o affiance_n by_o faith_n why_o shall_v he_o not_o also_o count_v himself_o as_o much_o abuse_v if_o you_o gather_v from_o hence_o that_o faith_n be_v not_o affiance_n but_o the_o cause_n thereof_o or_o that_o else_o the_o speech_n will_v be_v absurd_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v in_o affiance_n by_o affiance_n the_o reason_n of_o all_o in_o a_o word_n be_v because_o this_o form_n of_o word_n may_v import_v that_o affiance_n be_v the_o next_o and_o immediate_a act_n of_o justify_v faith_n the_o second_o place_n be_v that_o say_n of_o our_o saviour_n unto_o the_o woman_n disease_v with_o a_o issue_n of_o blood_n 9.22_o mat._n 9.22_o be_v confident_a daughter_n thy_o

who_o be_v already_o heal_v by_o faith_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o word_n which_o our_o saviour_n use_v to_o the_o woman_n be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d which_o signify_v to_o be_v

of_o faith_n nay_o oftentimes_o a_o effect_n of_o the_o effect_n of_o faith_n namely_o hope_v for_o as_o despair_n of_o victory_n cause_v fearfulness_n and_o dejection_n of_o spirit_n so_o

with_o all_o your_o skill_n you_o can_v never_o do_v they_o be_v of_o so_o different_a nature_n you_o can_v never_o conclude_v from_o hence_o that_o affiance_n be_v a_o effect_n of_o faith_n the_o
