matth._n 2.1_o 2._o verse_n the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n can_v tell_v you_o where_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v bear_v and_o bid_v the_o wise_a man_n go_v to_o bethlem_n but_o they_o will_v not_o go_v themselves_o so_o these_o man_n have_v wisdom_n enough_o to_o say_v here_o be_v the_o way_n to_o heaven_n but_o their_o own_o heart_n be_v not_o humble_v nor_o frame_v to_o walk_v in_o that_o way_n and_o to_o go_v home_o to_o christ_n nor_o to_o receive_v mercy_n from_o he_o know_v therefore_o you_o that_o be_v weak_a that_o believe_v carry_v two_o thing_n with_o it_o in_o the_o phrase_n of_o scripture_n first_o the_o assent_n of_o a_o man_n judgement_n to_o the_o truth_n when_o a_o man_n be_v so_o far_o convince_v that_o he_o sit_v down_o and_o acknowledge_v that_o whatsoever_o the_o word_n have_v reveal_v his_o judgement_n say_v it_o be_v all_o true_a and_o yield_v full_o with_o the_o whole_a stream_n of_o his_o mind_n this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o scripture_n sometime_o call_v believe_v and_o it_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o bare_a assent_n to_o the_o truth_n say_v it_o be_v so_o second_o when_o the_o will_n embrace_v that_o good_a in_o the_o promise_n former_o reveal_v when_o the_o will_n of_o a_o man_n claim_v god_n statute_n and_o cast_v his_o heart_n and_o hope_n upon_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o promise_n now_o the_o judicious_a professor_n have_v faith_n in_o the_o first_o sense_n he_o assent_v to_o all_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o acknowledge_v that_o they_o be_v true_a the_o devil_n in_o hell_n have_v this_o faith_n too_o and_o all_o that_o have_v no_o more_o than_o this_o faith_n shall_v go_v to_o the_o devil_n too_o as_o james_n 2.19_o in_o the_o 14._o verse_n the_o apostle_n say_v if_o a_o man_n say_v he_o have_v faith_n and_o have_v not_o work_n will_v that_o profit_v he_o and_o in_o the_o 19_o verse_n thou_o believe_v there_o be_v one_o god_n thou_o do_v well_o the_o devil_n also_o believe_v and_o tremble_v that_o be_v they_o assent_n to_o all_o the_o truth_n of_o scripture_n that_o god_n reveal_v and_o this_o be_v the_o believe_a of_o this_o great_a man_n which_o we_o have_v discover_v in_o his_o fashion_n when_o a_o man_n can_v dive_v deep_a into_o the_o scripture_n and_o understand_v all_o the_o text_n and_o untie_v every_o knot_n and_o dispute_v all_o question_n and_o be_v able_a to_o judge_v of_o the_o reason_n of_o they_o be_v this_o thy_o faith_n the_o devil_n himself_o will_v outbid_v this_o faith_n if_o cunning_a and_o judgement_n and_o knowledge_n be_v thy_o faith_n the_o devil_n have_v this_o faith_n they_o know_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n they_o know_v that_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o lord_n christ_n be_v great_a and_o that_o they_o shall_v never_o taste_v of_o it_o they_o know_v that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v be_v the_o judge_n of_o all_o the_o world_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v condemn_v they_o they_o assent_n to_o it_o and_o tremble_v at_o it_o mark_v 5.8_o when_o our_o saviour_n come_v among_o the_o devil_n they_o say_v we_o know_v thou_o who_o thou_o be_v even_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o god_n and_o act_n 16.17_o there_o be_v a_o devil_n in_o a_o woman_n which_o be_v a_o divine_a and_o a_o witch_n and_o she_o say_v these_o man_n be_v the_o servant_n of_o the_o live_a god_n which_o show_v unto_o we_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n it_o be_v the_o devil_n in_o the_o woman_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n bid_v he_o go_v out_o of_o she_o because_o he_o hinder_v their_o work_n i_o wish_v that_o the_o devil_n in_o hell_n may_v not_o rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o many_o of_o our_o unbeliever_n which_o will_v not_o yield_v to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n this_o be_v the_o bottom_n which_o bear_v up_o that_o kind_n of_o boldness_n which_o many_o carnal_a creature_n have_v upon_o their_o deathbed_n which_o never_o have_v the_o power_n of_o grace_n in_o their_o soul_n come_v to_o a_o carnal_a man_n that_o know_v nothing_o saving_o and_o sanctify_o and_o he_o will_v say_v i_o believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n with_o all_o my_o heart_n i_o have_v admire_v at_o it_o and_o seek_v to_o know_v the_o bottom_n of_o it_o and_o it_o be_v this_o they_o think_v this_o be_v believe_v to_o acknowledge_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o that_o they_o be_v not_o infidel_n they_o assent_n unto_o the_o truth_n and_o yield_v unto_o it_o in_o their_o judgement_n they_o think_v this_o be_v faith_n and_o that_o it_o be_v sufficient_a too_o oh_o you_o poor_a creature_n that_o have_v your_o friend_n or_o parent_n or_o husband_n that_o thus_o lie_v hold_v upon_o christ_n and_o be_v persuade_v that_o this_o be_v faith_n understand_v what_o the_o meaning_n be_v they_o only_o assent_v to_o the_o truth_n but_o never_o make_v application_n to_o their_o own_o soul_n what_o be_v that_o to_o thou_o that_o thou_o know_v the_o way_n to_o life_n and_o salvation_n and_o never_o walk_v in_o it_o and_o what_o be_v that_o to_o thou_o to_o hear_v that_o the_o lord_n christ_n come_v to_o save_v sinner_n and_o to_o know_v that_o there_o be_v mercy_n enough_o in_o he_o and_o yet_o never_o partake_v of_o it_o three_o i_o come_v to_o the_o evidence_n which_o make_v it_o clear_a to_o we_o that_o he_o have_v no_o more_o than_o this_o and_o those_o evidence_n be_v two_o first_o you_o shall_v find_v this_o man_n past_o fear_n and_o almost_o careless_a but_o he_o be_v without_o doubt_n of_o the_o difficulty_n either_o of_o get_v or_o maintain_v his_o faith_n he_o never_o come_v to_o question_v whether_o he_o have_v faith_n or_o no_o and_o he_o account_v they_o silly_a christian_n that_o be_v so_o daily_o trouble_v and_o disquiet_v for_o their_o estate_n whereas_o he_o carry_v the_o matter_n very_o confident_o and_o scarce_o look_v after_o it_o but_o bear_v it_o out_o with_o marvellous_a boldness_n and_o confidence_n which_o in_o truth_n be_v a_o undoubted_a argument_n that_o this_o man_n never_o know_v what_o this_o faith_n be_v our_o saviour_n say_v strive_v to_o enter_v in_o at_o the_o straight_a gate_n for_o the_o gate_n be_v narrow_a that_o lead_v to_o life_n and_o few_o there_o be_v that_o find_v it_o and_o so_o the_o apostle_n 2_o pet._n 1.5_o give_v all_o diligence_n to_o make_v your_o call_n and_o election_n sure_a yet_o this_o man_n make_v it_o a_o matter_n of_o nothing_o nay_o when_o many_o seek_v and_o labour_v and_o take_v much_o pain_n and_o never_o attain_v it_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o former_a strength_n of_o it_o as_o prov._n 1.28_o they_o shall_v call_v upon_o i_o but_o i_o will_v not_o answer_v they_o shall_v seek_v i_o early_o but_o they_o shall_v not_o find_v i_o yet_o this_o man_n think_v to_o have_v it_o with_o a_o wet_a finger_n that_o faith_n which_o be_v wrought_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o soul_n and_o be_v thereby_o keep_v it_o have_v daily_a opposition_n in_o the_o soul_n so_o that_o every_o godly_a man_n that_o have_v faith_n he_o must_v fight_v against_o the_o devil_n and_o all_o enemy_n and_o opposition_n yet_o this_o man_n never_o come_v to_o blow_n the_o lord_n christ_n find_v it_o thus_o by_o experience_n and_o thus_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n find_v it_o yet_o this_o man_n have_v find_v out_o a_o short_a cut_n and_o a_o easy_a way_n to_o heaven_n and_o he_o be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o confess_v it_o and_o say_v if_o a_o man_n be_v exercise_v in_o the_o word_n and_o if_o man_n have_v but_o his_o skill_n and_o be_v but_o train_v up_o in_o his_o school_n it_o be_v not_o such_o a_o hard_a matter_n to_o get_v faith_n and_o so_o it_o be_v true_a for_o they_o may_v easy_o get_v that_o faith_n which_o thou_o have_v second_o follow_v this_o man_n home_o and_o close_o with_o he_o in_o his_o private_a chamber_n and_o attend_v upon_o he_o in_o his_o other_o occasion_n and_o there_o he_o have_v no_o power_n of_o godliness_n in_o his_o life_n he_o have_v practice_n without_o any_o pith_n and_o a_o course_n without_o any_o kernel_n and_o he_o perform_v superficial_a duty_n without_o any_o strength_n all_o his_o duty_n be_v as_o dry_a as_o a_o chip_n only_o he_o carry_v all_o out_o with_o this_o he_o be_v wise_a and_o learned_a and_o judicious_a and_o this_o answer_v all_o if_o he_o do_v omit_v or_o neglect_v duty_n and_o do_v they_o careless_o this_o comfort_v he_o that_o he_o be_v a_o judicious_a man_n it_o be_v certain_a this_o man_n want_v that_o grace_n which_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v he_o that_o have_v so_o much_o faith_n without_o waver_v must_v needs_o have_v his_o conversation_n answerable_a he_o that_o have_v so_o much_o faith_n in_o
