reason_n be_v because_o their_o mind_n by_o contrary_a habit_n be_v uncapable_a of_o a_o depth_n or_o settle_a reception_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o life_n as_o be_v the_o rock_n to_o retain_v any_o seed_n to_o fructification_n and_o therefore_o these_o can_v abide_v no_o force_n of_o trial_n but_o fall_v away_o and_o come_v to_o nothing_o again_o the_o three_o sort_n of_o man_n mind_n on_o which_o fall_v the_o seed_n of_o life_n be_v further_o dispose_v for_o reception_n of_o christ_n the_o object_n of_o faith_n as_o verse_n 14._o and_o that_o which_o fall_v among_o thorn_n which_o when_o they_o have_v hear_v go_v forth_o and_o be_v choke_v with_o the_o care_n and_o the_o pleasure_n of_o this_o life_n and_o bring_v no_o fruit_n to_o perfection_n imply_v they_o go_v forward_o in_o the_o profession_n of_o true_a religion_n yet_o their_o fruit_n fall_v short_a of_o perfection_n because_o they_o come_v too_o much_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o cain_n glue_v to_o the_o possession_n and_o pleasure_n of_o this_o world_n so_o extinguish_v in_o their_o soul_n the_o operation_n of_o god_n spirit_n in_o the_o seed_n of_o life_n and_o therefore_o come_v to_o nothing_o again_o the_o four_o sort_n of_o man_n be_v further_o dispose_v to_o the_o object_n of_o faith_n for_o they_o in_o a_o honest_a and_o good_a heart_n from_o the_o force_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o enliven_a as_o in_o all_o the_o rest_n the_o principle_n of_o amity_n to_o god_n and_o of_o enmity_n to_o satan_n and_o it_o be_v careful_o preserve_v by_o they_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o oracle_n of_o life_n and_o so_o they_o receive_v the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n to_o receive_v the_o object_n of_o faith_n and_o so_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n with_o patience_n for_o verse_n 15._o the_o text_n say_v but_o that_o on_o the_o good_a ground_n be_v they_o which_o with_o a_o honest_a and_o good_a heart_n have_v hear_v the_o word_n keep_v it_o and_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n with_o patience_n now_o that_o all_o this_o be_v speak_v by_o christ_n with_o respect_n to_o future_a time_n in_o the_o ordinary_a course_n of_o his_o ambassador_n in_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o life_n be_v plain_a in_o the_o 3_o next_o ensue_a verse_n for_o when_o he_o have_v say_v that_o the_o end_n of_o this_o heavenly_a light_n be_v to_o be_v divulge_v imply_v in_o the_o 16._o verse_n and_o that_o by_o it_o all_o secret_n shall_v be_v discover_v as_o in_o the_o 17._o verse_n thereupon_o in_o the_o 18._o verse_n he_o exhort_v say_v take_v heed_n therefore_o bow_v you_o hear_v for_o whosoever_o have_v that_o be_v his_o principle_n of_o amity_n and_o enmity_n to_o satan_n preserve_v in_o disposition_n to_o god_n to_o he_o shall_v be_v give_v that_o be_v the_o power_n of_o faith_n

take_v away_o even_o that_o which_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o precedent_a sort_n of_o ground_n all_o be_v take_v away_o and_o come_v to_o nothing_o only_o in_o this_o four_o sort_n of_o man_n the_o seed_n of_o life_n and_o glory_n remain_v therefore_o o_o man_n be_v faithful_a in_o thy_o little_a and_o god_n which_o give_v thou_o that_o to_o receive_v more_o likewise_o will_v replenish_v thou_o with_o more_o as_o from_o the_o first_o disposition_n to_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n and_o in_o it_o lead_v thou_o from_o degree_n to_o degree_n of_o a_o honest_a and_o good_a heart_n to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n with_o patience_n for_o in_o it_o be_v a_o threefold_a strength_n in_o the_o object_n of_o faith_n faith_n a_o threefold_a degree_n of_o justify_v faith_n namely_o of_o babe_n young_a man_n and_o father_n in_o the_o faith_n and_o brief_o of_o these_o in_o their_o order_n and_o first_o of_o babe_n and_o of_o they_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n one_o by_o backslide_v from_o christ_n the_o object_n of_o faith_n these_o i_o will_v only_o point_v at_o as_o hebr._n 6._o verse_n 4.5_o 6._o be_v employ_v the_o strength_n which_o former_o they_o have_v and_o hebr._n 5.12.13_o be_v express_v their_o weakness_n into_o which_o they_o be_v fall_v even_o such_o as_o need_v milk_n unskilful_a in_o the_o word_n of_o righteousness_n need_v to_o be_v teach_v again_o what_o be_v the_o first_o principle_n of_o religion_n even_o babe_n say_v the_o text_n but_o these_o i_o pass_v a_o second_o sort_n of_o babe_n be_v those_o which_o for_o their_o union_n by_o faith_n in_o christ_n but_o new_o begin_v have_v not_o have_v time_n for_o further_a growth_n in_o faith_n and_o love_n to_o such_o saint_n peter_n write_v as_o new_o bear_v babe_n to_o desire_v the_o sincere_a milk_n of_o the_o word_n that_o they_o may_v grow_v thereby_o 1_o pet._n 2.2_o so_o saint_n paul_n say_v he_o can_v not_o write_v unto_o they_o as_o unto_o spiritual_a but_o as_o unto_o carnal_a as_o unto_o babe_n in_o that_o i_o have_v feed_v you_o with_o milk_n 1_o cor._n 3.1_o so_o such_o be_v the_o apostle_n themselves_o at_o their_o first_o union_n with_o christ_n by_o belief_n of_o truth_n as_o for_o instance_n james_n and_o john_n esteem_v the_o glory_n of_o this_o world_n before_o their_o sacred_a function_n desire_v to_o be_v chief_a in_o it_o but_o christ_n instruct_v they_o the_o contrary_a mat_n 20.26_o so_o likewise_o saint_n peter_n childish_o esteem_v his_o strength_n in_o faith_n and_o love_n to_o christ_n above_o his_o fellow_n or_o what_o indeed_o it_o be_v but_o christ_n inform_v he_o to_o judge_v better_o of_o himself_o and_o other_o joh._n 21_o 15.17_o and_o in_o a_o word_n at_o first_o they_o in_o their_o undergo_n their_o function_n or_o belief_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o christ_n be_v but_o weakling_n for_o he_o say_v i_o have_v many_o thing_n to_o say_v unto_o you_o but_o you_o can_v bear_v they_o now_o joh._n 6.12.13_o so_o much_o for_o the_o first_o degree_n in_o the_o second_o degree_n they_o be_v more_o strong_a as_o have_v overcome_v much_o of_o this_o childishness_n hence_o saint_n john_n say_v i_o have_v write_v to_o you_o young_a man_n because_o you_o be_v strong_a and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n abide_v in_o you_o and_o you_o have_v overcome_v that_o wicked_a one_o the_o first_o epistle_n of_o saint_n john_n 2._o &_o 14._o and_o in_o the_o 15._o and_o 16._o verse_n he_o leave_v they_o a_o rule_n to_o prefer_v this_o strength_n as_o not_o to_o love_v the_o world_n neither_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n etc._n etc._n and_o he_o foresee_v the_o danger_n in_o this_o second_o degree_n of_o strength_n in_o a_o honest_a and_o good_a heart_n namely_o to_o fall_v final_o from_o their_o union_n with_o christ_n special_o when_o youth_n in_o nature_n and_o youth_n in_o faith_n meet_v in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o subject_n whence_o s._n paul_n forbid_v a_o young_a scholar_n in_o christ_n school_n to_o meddle_v public_o with_o the_o mystery_n of_o christ_n or_o with_o great_a wariness_n at_o least_o and_o his_o reason_n be_v lest_o he_o be_v puff_v up_o and_o fall_v into_o the_o condemnation_n of_o the_o devil_n so_o saint_n john_n lay_v down_o another_o rule_n to_o preserve_v this_o strength_n say_v he_o let_v that_o abide_v therefore_o in_o you_o which_o you_o have_v hear_v from_o the_o beginning_n if_o that_o which_o you_o have_v hear_v from_o the_o beginning_n remain_v in_o you_o you_o also_o shall_v continue_v in_o the_o son_n and_o in_o the_o father_n 1_o epist_n 2._o ch_z 14._o &_o 24._o 1_o tim._n 3.6_o imply_v if_o young_a man_n strong_a in_o the_o faith_n careful_o avoid_v the_o reflect_v act_n of_o faith_n as_o tend_v to_o pride_n and_o humble_o follow_v the_o object_n of_o life_n and_o glory_n they_o may_v attain_v to_o a_o perfect_a age_n in_o the_o object_n of_o faith_n for_o although_o in_o this_o second_o degree_n be_v more_o danger_n to_o fall_v by_o pride_n then_o in_o the_o former_a yet_o here_o be_v more_o strength_n to_o press_v forward_o to_o the_o sacred_a object_n of_o justification_n for_o a_o continue_a acception_n in_o that_o righteousness_n impute_v also_o further_a power_n to_o follow_v it_o in_o point_n of_o imitation_n in_o a_o honest_a and_o good_a heart_n to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n with_o patience_n to_o a_o perfect_a man_n in_o christ_n and_o so_o much_o for_o the_o second_o degree_n of_o justify_v faith_n in_o open_v the_o three_o degree_n i_o will_v first_o define_v what_o this_o justify_v faith_n be_v second_o define_v what_o the_o perfection_n of_o this_o justify_v faith_n be_v three_o in_o the_o eleven_o chap._n follow_v show_v how_o this_o three_o degree_n or_o this_o perfection_n of_o faith_n
