that_o do_v ask_v it_o out_o of_o singleness_n of_o heart_n as_o i_o do_v believe_v you_o do_v but_o this_o i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o consider_v that_o a_o prophet_n can_v give_v faith_n and_o revelation_n unto_o any_o whereby_o they_o may_v find_v those_o refreshment_n and_o joy_n of_o heart_n it_o must_v arise_v from_o your_o own_o seed_n of_o faith_n neither_o can_v it_o arise_v so_o in_o you_o as_o it_o do_v in_o other_o neither_o can_v it_o be_v expect_v of_o you_o because_o you_o be_v not_o neither_o have_v you_o be_v exercise_v with_o the_o trouble_n of_o this_o world_n as_o

which_o will_v be_v a_o great_a refreshment_n unto_o nature_n as_o it_o where_o the_o assurance_n of_o eternal_a life_n be_v which_o nature_n have_v deny_v unto_o you_o but_o it_o be_v well_o for_o you_o that_o ever_o you_o be_v bear_v that_o you_o be_v of_o that_o bless_a seed_n that_o will_v be_v happy_a in_o the_o end_n i_o shall_v be_v glad_a that_o your_o faith_n may_v grow_v as_o strong_a as_o that_o woman_n be_v do_v which_o be_v trouble_v with_o a_o bloody_a issue_n that_o if_o she_o can_v but_o touch_v our_o lord_n garment_n she_o shall_v be_v whole_a and_o according_a to_o her_o faith_n it_o be_v unto_o she_o and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o she_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o eternal_a life_n beside_o for_o virtue_n go_v out_o of_o our_o lord_n not_o only_o to_o cure_v the_o bloody_a issue_n but_o the_o peace_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o her_o mind_n concern_v the_o life_n to_o come_v therefore_o it_o be_v say_v he_o look_v round_o about_o to_o see_v she_o that_o have_v do_v the_o thing_n and_o he_o say_v daughter_n thy_o faith_n have_v make_v the_o whole_a go_v in_o peace_n here_o you_o may_v see_v it_o be_v not_o our_o lord_n that_o give_v her_o faith_n but_o it_o be_v she_o own_o faith_n which_o make_v her_o whole_a both_o natural_a and_o spiritual_a neither_o can_v any_o prophet_n give_v faith_n to_o any_o neither_o do_v god_n himself_o give_v faith_n to_o any_o it_o must_v arise_v from_o its_o own_o seed_n you_o may_v say_v then_o why_o do_v the_o scripture_n say_v that_o faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v for_o these_o two_o reason_n because_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n be_v of_o his_o own_o divine_a nature_n and_o that_o breath_n of_o life_n which_o god_n breathe_v into_o adam_n be_v that_o breath_n or_o seed_n of_o faith_n and_o whoever_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o adam_n they_o be_v of_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n so_o in_o time_n it_o do_v arise_v out_o of_o the_o seed_n into_o act_n so_o that_o the_o creature_n come_v to_o the_o peace_n of_o assurance_n of_o eternal_a life_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n because_o god_n give_v the_o seed_n in_o the_o original_a unto_o adam_n and_o not_o in_o particular_a unto_o every_o person_n as_o have_v be_v vain_o imagine_v through_o the_o ignorance_n of_o man_n not_o know_v the_o two_o seed_n second_o it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n in_o that_o he_o have_v choose_v prophet_n and_o ambassador_n to_o preach_v faith_n therefore_o say_v paul_n faith_n come_v by_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n preach_v and_o how_o can_v he_o preach_v except_o he_o be_v send_v the_o mean_v be_v this_o that_o the_o act_n of_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n preach_v by_o i_o or_o more_o that_o be_v send_v of_o god_n but_o the_o seed_n and_o root_n of_o faith_n be_v in_o they_o that_o do_v believe_v before_o and_o not_o immediate_o give_v of_o god_n as_o i_o say_v before_o but_o in_o regard_n god_n do_v send_v messenger_n to_o preach_v faith_n and_o so_o that_o seed_n be_v awaken_v and_o come_v to_o act_v itself_o forth_o in_o power_n so_o as_o to_o justify_v themselves_o towards_o god_n and_o towards_o man_n for_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n we_o have_v peace_n with_o god_n and_o in_o this_o regard_n it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o faith_n be_v a_o gift_n of_o god_n in_o that_o he_o have_v send_v man_n to_o declare_v truth_n and_o so_o they_o that_o believe_v may_v be_v say_v to_o receive_v faith_n from_o god_n for_o he_o that_o receive_v a_o prophet_n in_o the_o name_n of_o a_o prophet_n receive_v he_o that_o send_v he_o and_o whoever_o receive_v a_o prophet_n in_o the_o name_n of_o a_o prophet_n shall_v receive_v a_o prophet_n reward_n which_o reward_n be_v eternal_a life_n for_o prophet_n have_v little_a else_o to_o give_v and_o if_o it_o be_v well_o consider_v it_o be_v enough_o and_o as_o the_o woman_n faith_n do_v draw_v virtue_n from_o our_o lord_n so_o there_o will_v virtue_n go_v from_o the_o commission_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o to_o your_o eternal_a happiness_n let_v your_o faith_n whole_o depend_v upon_o it_o and_o you_o shall_v fare_v no_o worse_o than_o myself_o do_v you_o shall_v have_v the_o end_n of_o your_o faith_n even_o the_o salvation_n of_o your_o soul_n and_o that_o you_o may_v be_v
