in_o your_o natural_a condition_n you_o have_v some_o thing_n which_o you_o call_v your_o gain_n phil._n 3._o 7._o and_o if_o you_o shall_v present_o die_v you_o have_v something_o to_o trust_v unto_o and_o while_o these_o remain_n with_o you_o it_o be_v not_o a_o hard_a thing_n for_o you_o to_o believe_v and_o therefore_o a_o man_n trust_v to_o his_o fleshly_a confidence_n till_o he_o come_v to_o know_v christ_n jesus_n the_o lord_n but_o when_o the_o soul_n be_v unhorse_v of_o her_o false_a confidence_n and_o true_a faith_n have_v dismantle_v all_o man_n strong_a hold_n 10._o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o to_o relieve_v it_o but_o faith_n in_o christ_n when_o a_o man_n be_v leave_v naked_a as_o adam_n be_v of_o himself_o and_o his_o own_o righteousness_n and_o a_o man_n have_v nothing_o to_o trust_v unto_o but_o the_o word_n of_o god_n who_o he_o have_v offend_v and_o yet_o now_o he_o must_v trust_v to_o it_o and_o venture_v his_o soul_n upon_o it_o when_o trouble_n and_o fearful_a question_n do_v arise_v than_o you_o will_v find_v no_o sea_n no_o euripus_n be_v more_o unconstant_a than_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n nothing_o more_o hard_a to_o fix_v this_o will_v make_v he_o cry_v out_o with_o francis_n spira_n oh_o that_o i_o have_v but_o one_o dram_n of_o faith_n o_o that_o my_o faith_n be_v fix_v and_o my_o heart_n by_o faith_n these_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o that_o opinion_n the_o easiness_n of_o believe_v now_o i_o must_v show_v the_o contrary_a to_o this_o opinion_n about_o the_o easiness_n of_o faith_n and_o to_o that_o end_n i_o shall_v say_v thus_o much_o that_o it_o be_v not_o proper_o say_v to_o be_v hard_o for_o a_o natural_a man_n to_o come_v to_o christ_n for_o that_o may_v denote_v a_o possibility_n but_o that_o man_n can_v come_v without_o god_n draw_v which_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o prove_v first_o because_o the_o scripture_n make_v it_o the_o work_n of_o god_n and_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n the_o work_n of_o god_n for_o he_o draw_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n for_o it_o be_v give_v to_o believe_v and_o in_o some_o place_n give_v that_o as_o the_o reason_n why_o man_n can_v believe_v of_o themselves_o as_o in_o the_o text_n no_o man_n can_v except_v god_n draw_v which_o be_v give_v as_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o unbelief_n of_o these_o murmurer_n against_o christ_n doctrine_n and_o ver_fw-la 64._o 65._o its_o say_a christ_n know_v from_o the_o beginning_n who_o shall_v not_o believe_v for_o no_o man_n can_v come_v to_o i_o except_o it_o be_v give_v he_o of_o my_o father_n and_o our_o saviour_n as_o appear_v by_o this_o

may_v see_v that_o assign_v of_o our_o faith_n to_o god_n work_n and_o god_n gift_n do_v deny_v man_n to_o be_v the_o social_a as_o well_o as_o sole_a cause_n of_o his_o faith_n and_o that_o god_n
