truth_n distrust_v and_o despair_a of_o victory_n against_o my_o flesh_n i_o be_o wont_a diverse_a time_n to_o quail_v p._n these_o doutinge_n of_o the_o power_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v dangerous_a

the_o flesh_n to_o live_v after_o the_o like_n of_o the_o flesh_n &_o to_o obey_v the_o corruptnes_n thereof_o but_o rather_o to_o the_o spirit_n to_o indever_n to_o obey_v he_o in_o all_o thing_n

after_o the_o like_n of_o the_o flesh_n you_o shall_v sure_o die_v but_o if_o that_o by_o the_o spirit_n you_o vanquishe_v the_o do_n work_n device_n desire_n &_o in_o dever_n of_o the_o flesh_n &_o fight_v against_o the_o lust_n thereof_o out_o of_o all_o doubt_n you_o shall_v live_v &_o you_o shall_v continue_v in_o the_o life_n that_o you_o have_v receive_v by_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o life_n of_o the_o faithful_a even_o in_o who_o mind_n the_o quicken_a spirit_n utter_v his_o power_n r._n hereafter_o i_o will_v bid_v such_o doubtinge_n farewell_n and_o sift_v

in_o all_o point_n at_o our_o hand_n which_o we_o be_v never_o able_a to_o perform_v except_o the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v work_n &_o fulfil_v the_o thing_n in_o we_o which_o he_o

love_n of_o god_n whereby_o we_o perceive_v god_n goodness_n to_o be_v so_o great_a that_o we_o not_o only_o call_v upon_o he_o but_o also_o cry_v unto_o he_o with_o inward_a familiarity_n &_o

in_o christ_n for_o god_n spirit_n witness_v inward_o to_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v god_n child_n by_o grace_n and_o adoption_n as_o who_o be_v partaker_n of_o his_o divine_a nature_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n in_o christ_n r._n you_o tell_v i_o of_o a_o great_a dignity_n p._n true_o so_o be_v it_o and_o if_o we_o be_v child_n then_o must_v it_o needs_o be_v confess_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v heir_n also_o very_o the_o heir_n of_o god_n because_o we_o be_v his_o child_n and_o fellow_n heir_n with_o christ_n because_o we_o be_v his_o brethren_n r._n he_o that_o have_v such_o a_o record_n in_o himself_o neither_o waver_v nor_o stagger_v in_o his_o mind_n but_o what_o other_o inward_a motion_n require_v you_o in_o the_o regenerate_v p._n that_o they_o shall_v know_v themselves_o to_o be_v the_o true_a member_n of_o christ_n and_o enter_v into_o the_o way_n of_o the_o cross_n arm_v with_o the_o remembrance_n thereof_o for_o since_o it_o behove_v christ_n to_o

christ_n r._n true_o this_o promise_n be_v very_o sweet_a but_o the_o way_n to_o attain_v to_o it_o be_v very_o sour_a p._n but_o i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o the_o adversity_n which_o we_o suffer_v in_o this_o world_n be_v not_o equal_a or_o comparable_a to_o the_o glory_n that_o shall_v be_v utter_v upon_o we_o in_o time_n to_o come_v r._n unhappy_a certesse_n be_v the_o state_n of_o mankind_n for_o only_o man_n feel_v sorrow_n and_o trouble_n only_a man_n bear_v all_o thing_n only_a man_n grow_v only_a man_n be_v vex_v and_o pine_v away_o p._n nay_o rather_o if_o you_o behold_v this_o frame_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n advise_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o all_o kind_n of_o thing_n yea_o even_o of_o the_o senseless_a creature_n do_v with_o very_o great_a thoughtful_a and_o vehement_a desire_n long_o for_o the_o discovery_n of_o god_n child_n because_o that_o be_v very_o near_o of_o kin_n to_o we_o they_o desire_v our_o full_a and_o perfect_a glory_n and_o also_o because_o that_o day_n they_o themselves_o also_o shall_v be_v repair_v and_o make_v immortal_a r._n why_o so_o p._n because_o the_o nature_n of_o thing_n be_v subject_a to_o vanity_n and_o corruption_n not_o willing_o for_o that_o be_v against_o their_o natural_a like_n but_o for_o his_o sake_n by_o who_o they_o be_v so_o make_v subject_a to_o decay_v for_o god_n be_v content_v that_o they_o shall_v dec●y_v to_o do_v we_o service_n withal_o howbeit_o in_o hope_n that_o they_o shall_v come_v much_o more_o beautiful_a and_o less_o subject_a to_o decay_v else_o the_o desire_n of_o a_o everlasting_a state_n be_v breed_v in_o they_o in_o vain_a therefore_o they_o themselves_o also_o shall_v be_v set_v free_a from_o the_o thraldom_n of_o destruction_n and_o be_v make_v likewise_o immortal_a and_o enjoy_v like_o liberty_n in_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v from_o perish_v when_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n child_n appear_v for_o we_o know_v how_o all_o thing_n groan_v and_o mourn_v with_o we_o unto_o this_o day_n and_o shall_v do_v till_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n therefore_o we_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o complain_v r._n sure_o the_o state_n of_o the_o godly_a be_v miserable_a notwithstanding_o that_o all_o creature_n be_v fellow_n of_o their_o affliction_n p._n nay_o very_o the_o faithful_a have_v also_o even_o the_o chief_a pillar_n of_o godliness_n to_o be_v their_o

while_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n our_o own_o conscience_n waver_v for_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v do_v against_o a_o man_n own_o conscience_n can_v be_v dom_o without_o sin_n therefore_o when_o thou_o

all_o slander_n reproach_n 69._o psa_fw-la 69._o and_o final_o torment_v and_o infamy_n according_a to_o this_o say_n which_o the_o kingly_a prophet_n have_v write_v of_o he_o the_o revile_n of_o
