the_o heinousness_n of_o his_o sin_n have_v any_o just_a cause_n to_o despair_v of_o mercy_n for_o though_o our_o sin_n be_v many_o yet_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n be_v more_o though_o they_o be_v great_a yet_o his_o mercy_n be_v above_o they_o he_o be_v rich_a in_o mercy_n yea_o his_o mercy_n be_v infinite_a so_o that_o though_o he_o have_v spend_v much_o mercy_n already_o upon_o our_o forefather_n yet_o he_o have_v mercy_n enough_o in_o store_n for_o we_o also_o with_o he_o there_o be_v plenty_n of_o forgiveness_n and_o his_o mercy_n endure_v for_o ever_o and_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n for_o he_o be_v mighty_a to_o save_v and_o he_o be_v the_o same_o for_o ever_o and_o through_o the_o riches_n of_o these_o merit_n of_o christ_n there_o be_v a_o way_n set_v open_a even_o for_o the_o worst_a sinner_n to_o become_v partaker_n of_o the_o riches_n of_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n now_o if_o any_o man_n sin_n we_o have_v a_o advocate_n with_o the_o father_n jesus_n christ_n the_o righteous_a and_o he_o be_v the_o propitiation_n for_o our_o sin_n etc._n etc._n 1_o john_n 2.1_o 2._o and_o though_o the_o time_n of_o his_o abode_n upon_o earth_n in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o flesh_n be_v but_o short_a though_o his_o suffering_n be_v but_o for_o a_o season_n yet_o such_o be_v and_o be_v the_o dignity_n of_o his_o person_n be_v the_o eternal_a son_n of_o god_n that_o his_o suffering_n and_o obedience_n be_v infinite_o meritorious_a and_o his_o blood_n be_v able_a to_o cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o unrighteousness_n so_o that_o we_o may_v well_o say_v with_o the_o apostle_n who_o be_v he_o that_o condemn_v it_o be_v christ_n that_o die_v or_o rather_o who_o be_v rise_v again_o and_o now_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o rom._n 8.33_o 34._o but_o let_v no_o man_n turn_v this_o doctrine_n of_o comfort_n to_o a_o liberty_n of_o sin_v against_o the_o great_a sin_n there_o be_v hope_n in_o christ_n for_o penitent_a believer_n but_o because_o there_o be_v mercy_n with_o god_n shall_v we_o therefore_o go_v on_o in_o sin_n god_n forbid_v there_o be_v mercy_n with_o he_o and_o therefore_o he_o must_v be_v fear_v but_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v presume_v to_o sin_n because_o there_o be_v mercy_n with_o god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n instead_o of_o mercy_n that_o man_n be_v like_a to_o meet_v with_o nothing_o but_o justice_n for_o as_o merciful_a as_o god_n be_v and_o as_o all-sufficient_a as_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v there_o be_v no_o mercy_n for_o such_o as_o go_v on_o still_o in_o their_o wickedness_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o christ_n be_v mighty_a enough_o to_o save_v we_o from_o all_o our_o sin_n and_o to_o reconcile_v we_o unto_o god_n now_o that_o we_o may_v have_v benefit_n by_o this_o sufficiency_n of_o christ_n we_o must_v lay_v hold_v upon_o it_o by_o a_o lively_a faith_n this_o be_v that_o which_o unite_v we_o unto_o christ_n and_o make_v we_o one_o with_o he_o this_o be_v that_o which_o give_v we_o interest_n in_o he_o and_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o merit_n this_o make_v the_o death_n and_o obedience_n of_o christ_n as_o very_o our_o own_o and_o as_o effectual_a for_o the_o pardon_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v perform_v by_o our_o very_a self_n so_o that_o if_o we_o do_v true_o believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n then_o be_v god_n well_o please_v with_o we_o for_o his_o sake_n and_o by_o virtue_n of_o his_o merit_n be_v make_v we_o by_o faith_n our_o sin_n be_v all_o pardon_v and_o our_o soul_n and_o body_n shall_v be_v eternal_o save_v and_o so_o much_o the_o scripture_n do_v plain_o testify_v in_o several_a place_n as_o john_n 3.16_o god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v life_n everlasting_a and_o again_o act_v 10.43_o through_o his_o name_n whosoever_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v receive_v remission_n of_o sin_n be_v they_o never_o so_o many_o never_o so_o heinous_a and_o again_o act_v 13.38_o 39_o be_v it_o know_v unto_o you_o that_o through_o this_o man_n be_v preach_v unto_o you_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o by_o he_o all_o that_o believe_v be_v justify_v from_o all_o those_o thing_n from_o which_o they_o can_v not_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n by_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n we_o can_v never_o have_v be_v acquit_v either_o from_o the_o guiltiness_n of_o sin_n or_o from_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n but_o we_o be_v deliver_v from_o both_o by_o faith_n in_o christ_n for_o by_o it_o we_o obtain_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o christ_n be_v the_o way_n by_o which_o we_o be_v to_o obtain_v the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o peace_n with_o god_n and_o that_o faith_n be_v the_o way_n whereby_o we_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n for_o our_o justification_n and_o salvation_n proceed_v we_o now_o in_o a_o word_n to_o show_v that_o nothing_o but_o christ_n can_v reconcile_v we_o unto_o god_n and_o that_o nothing_o but_o faith_n can_v make_v we_o partaker_n of_o christ_n for_o our_o reconciliation_n there_o be_v no_o way_n whereby_o to_o come_v unto_o god_n but_o only_o christ_n it_o be_v only_o in_o christ_n that_o god_n be_v well_o please_v neither_o be_v there_o salvation_n in_o any_o other_o for_o there_o be_v no_o other_o name_n under_o the_o heaven_n give_v among_o man_n whereby_o we_o must_v be_v save_v act_v 4.12_o neither_o be_v there_o any_o other_o mean_n on_o our_o part_n whereby_o to_o receive_v christ_n but_o only_a faith_n and_o yet_o unless_o we_o do_v receive_v he_o we_o get_v no_o benefit_n by_o he_o and_o therefore_o unless_o we_o do_v believe_v in_o he_o we_o shall_v perish_v in_o our_o sin_n and_o to_o this_o purpose_n speak_v our_o saviour_n john_n 3.36_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n have_v everlasting_a life_n and_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o the_o son_n shall_v not_o see_v life_n but_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n abide_v on_o he_o see_v the_o sum_n of_o all_o this_o in_o that_o place_n of_o st._n john_n 1_o epist_n 5._o chap._n 11_o 12_o and_o 13_o verse_n god_n have_v give_v to_o we_o eternal_a life_n and_o this_o life_n be_v in_o his_o son_n he_o that_o have_v the_o son_n have_v life_n and_o he_o that_o have_v not_o the_o son_n have_v not_o life_n these_o thing_n have_v i_o write_v to_o you_o that_o believe_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n that_o you_o may_v know_v that_o you_o have_v eternal_a life_n and_o that_o you_o may_v believe_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n by_o which_o place_n it_o be_v plain_a that_o there_o be_v a_o way_n to_o life_n that_o christ_n be_v the_o way_n to_o it_o that_o life_n be_v so_o in_o he_o that_o it_o be_v in_o no_o other_o but_o he_o that_o it_o be_v so_o in_o he_o that_o by_o believe_v in_o he_o we_o obtain_v life_n and_o that_o it_o be_v so_o in_o he_o that_o without_o believe_v in_o he_o we_o get_v no_o benefit_n at_o all_o by_o he_o and_o thus_o you_o have_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o former_a answer_n enlarge_v and_o confirm_v according_a to_o it_o be_v several_a branch_n by_o which_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o faith_n in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o nothing_o else_o but_o only_a faith_n in_o he_o can_v help_v we_o to_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o the_o salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n hereupon_o it_o may_v be_v thus_o reply_v the_o second_o question_n if_o i_o can_v obtain_v the_o pardon_n of_o my_o sin_n and_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n without_o faith_n in_o christ_n i_o doubt_v my_o condition_n be_v woeful_a and_o that_o i_o be_o yet_o in_o my_o sin_n and_o liable_a unto_o wrath_n for_o i_o fear_v that_o i_o have_v not_o this_o faith_n in_o christ_n and_o that_o i_o do_v not_o as_o yet_o believe_v in_o he_o show_v i_o therefore_o i_o pray_v you_o how_o i_o may_v be_v comfort_v against_o this_o fear_n and_o how_o i_o may_v know_v whether_o i_o do_v believe_v in_o christ_n yea_o or_o no_o answer_n doutless_o if_o we_o do_v not_o believe_v in_o christ_n our_o condition_n be_v woeful_a for_o there_o be_v no_o salvation_n in_o any_o other_o and_o without_o faith_n in_o he_o we_o get_v no_o benefit_n by_o he_o but_o we_o be_v in_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o obligation_n unto_o wrath_n be_v in_o full_a power_n and_o force_v against_o we_o for_o though_o the_o ransom_n which_o christ_n pay_v by_o his_o death_n upon_o the_o cross_n be_v a_o ransom_n
