quicken_v to_o obedience_n as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n find_v it_o in_o himself_o when_o he_o say_v the_o love_n of_o christ_n constrain_v we_o 5.14_o 2_o cor._n 5.14_o since_o none_o can_v

according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n 8.9_o rom._n 8.9_o you_o be_v not_o in_o the_o flesh_n but_o in_o the_o spirit_n i._n e._n you_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o

sin_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o high_a expression_n of_o love_n imaginable_a 4.10_o 1._o joh._n 4.10_o as_o the_o apostle_n john_n cry_v out_o herein_o be_v love_n i._o e._n love_n to_o a_o hyperbole_n love_n beyond_o any_o degree_n of_o comparison_n not_o that_o we_o love_v god_n but_o that_o he_o love_v we_o and_o send_v his_o son_n to_o be_v the_o propitiation_n of_o our_o sin_n 2._o since_o this_o expression_n of_o love_n on_o god_n part_n can_v be_v embrace_v by_o faith_n on_o we_o but_o it_o must_v needs_o beget_v love_n again_o as_o the_o sun_n beam_n can_v fix_v

always_o actuate_a and_o blow_v up_o this_o love_n and_o improve_n the_o strength_n of_o it_o especial_o in_o the_o subdue_a of_o sin_n upon_o this_o consideration_n because_o sin_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n and_o to_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n from_o hence_o it_o demonstrable_o follow_v that_o the_o best_a way_n to_o mortify_v sin_n be_v right_o to_o conceive_v of_o the_o

that_o faith_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o confident_a persuasion_n that_o our_o sin_n be_v pardon_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o christ_n without_o any_o other_o notable_a effect_n upon_o we_o this_o be_v at_o the_o best_a a_o ungrounded_a fancy_n which_o will_v in_o the_o end_n deceive_v we_o from_o what_o i_o have_v say_v it_o may_v appear_v that_o true_a justifyfy_a faith_n carry_v along_o with_o it_o these_o two_o inseparable_a effect_n 1._o it_o pacify_v the_o conscience_n it_o beget_v a_o calm_a within_o when_o a_o sinner_n first_o begin_v to_o be_v trouble_v for_o sin_n there_o
