come_v to_o christ_n the_o dignation_n and_o grace_n which_o he_o give_v to_o infant_n which_o vocation_n be_v the_o introduction_n into_o our_o state_n of_o salvation_n in_o this_o present_a life_n wherefore_o usual_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o frontispiece_n &_o forehead_n of_o their_o letter_n to_o the_o church_n speak_v of_o this_o vocation_n 1.2_o rom._n 1.7.8_o 1._o cor._n 1.2_o inscribe_v

while_o we_o become_v new_a creature_n by_o he_o and_o so_o the_o son_n of_o god_n not_o only_o by_o adoption_n but_o by_o regeneration_n also_o for_o christ_n when_o he_o justifi_v we_o he_o not_o

the_o four_o objection_n be_v thus_o lay_v in_o against_o us._n there_o can_v be_v no_o justification_n where_o there_o be_v not_o faith_n and_o repentance_n but_o no_o man_n can_v be_v certain_a by_o the_o certainty_n of_o faith_n of_o his_o unfeigned_a repentance_n of_o his_o sin_n past_a and_o of_o such_o a_o faith_n as_o god_n require_v of_o we_o in_o asmuch_o as_o the_o word_n perform_v no_o

be_v this_o that_o a_o man_n by_o his_o faith_n shall_v be_v certain_a of_o his_o faith_n and_o repentance_n there_o be_v no_o such_o necessity_n because_o the_o object_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o of_o

any_o way_n be_v undoubted_o certain_a that_o he_o have_v they_o and_o albeit_o some_o man_n fond_o feed_v upon_o their_o own_o fancy_n as_o upon_o a_o restorative_n that_o they_o have_v faith_n and_o have_v it_o not_o as_o they_o that_o dream_v that_o they_o be_v great_a person_n &_o when_o they_o be_v out_o of_o their_o dream_n find_v the_o contrary_a yet_o the_o true_a believer_n know_v aswell_o that_o he_o believe_v as_o he_o that_o understand_v know_v he_o understand_v and_o as_o he_o that_o believe_v a_o man_n on_o his_o word_n know_v he_o believe_v he_o and_o as_o he_o that_o hold_v

be_v of_o sufficiency_n or_o no_o for_o our_o security_n in_o this_o cause_n we_o answer_v that_o true_a faith_n not_o blind_v with_o hypocrisy_n in_o the_o mediocrity_n and_o imperfection_n thereof_o
