you_o do_v these_o thing_n you_o shall_v never_o fall_v 2._o our_o second_o and_o best_a assurance_n be_v the_o testimony_n of_o god_n spirit_n which_o sometime_o may_v suggest_v and_o testify_v to_o the_o sanctify_a conscience_n thus_o or_o in_o the_o like_a manner_n thou_o shall_v be_v save_v thou_o shall_v be_v with_o i_o in_o paradise_n but_o here_o i_o must_v satisfy_v two_o doubt_n first_o by_o what_o mean_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n give_v this_o particular_a assurance_n second_o how_o a_o man_n may_v discern_v betwixt_o the_o assurance_n of_o this_o spirit_n and_o the_o illusion_n of_o satan_n who_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o lie_n to_o the_o first_o we_o say_v the_o mean_n be_v either_o by_o a_o immediate_a revelation_n or_o by_o a_o particular_a application_n of_o the_o promise_n in_o the_o gospel_n 3.36_o john_n 3.36_o in_o form_n of_o a_o experimental_a syllogism_n as_o whosoever_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n shall_v be_v save_v but_o i_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n therefore_o i_o shall_v be_v save_v the_o major_n be_v scripture_n the_o minor_a be_v confirm_v by_o our_o faith_n which_o if_o i_o have_v i_o may_v say_v i_o believe_v true_a flesh_n and_o blood_n can_v say_v this_o it_o be_v the_o operation_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o if_o the_o work_n be_v wrought_v and_o i_o feel_v this_o faith_n within_o my_o soul_n what_o need_v i_o doubt_v but_o this_o assumption_n be_v true_a i_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n yet_o i_o hear_v some_o complain_v they_o have_v neither_o sight_n nor_o sense_n of_o faith_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v often_o with_o god_n dear_a child_n the_o sun_n that_o in_o a_o clear_a sky_n discover_v and_o manifest_v it_o self_n may_v sometime_o with_o cloud_n be_v overcast_v and_o darken_v and_o faith_n that_o in_o the_o calmness_n of_o a_o christian_a course_n shine_v &_o show_v itself_o clear_o to_o the_o sanctify_a heart_n may_v sometime_o in_o the_o damp_n of_o spiritual_a desertion_n or_o darkness_n of_o temptation_n lie_v hide_v and_o obscure_v there_o be_v therefore_o in_o the_o saint_n adhaerentiae_fw-la certitudo_fw-la evidentiae_fw-la &_o adhaerentiae_fw-la the_o assurance_n of_o evidence_n and_o the_o assurance_n of_o adherence_n the_o assurance_n of_o evidence_n be_v that_o which_o be_v without_o scruple_n and_o bring_v a_o admirable_a joy_n with_o it_o and_o this_o more_o especial_o appear_v either_o in_o our_o more_o fervent_a prayer_n or_o in_o our_o heavenly_a meditation_n or_o in_o time_n of_o martyrdom_n or_o in_o some_o quicken_a exercise_n of_o extraordinary_a humiliation_n or_o in_o beginning_n of_o our_o spiritual_a or_o end_n of_o our_o natural_a life_n as_o most_o needful_a time_n then_o do_v god_n spirit_n speak_v comfortable_o to_o we_o whisper_v to_o our_o soul_n the_o assurance_n of_o our_o happiness_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v inheritor_n of_o his_o kingdom_n the_o assurance_n of_o adherence_n be_v that_o which_o i_o doubt_v not_o the_o saint_n have_v in_o their_o great_a extremity_n for_o instance_n many_o a_o faithful_a soul_n that_o make_v conscience_n of_o sin_n lie_v and_o languish_v upon_o the_o rack_n of_o fear_n and_o terror_n he_o shell_n nothing_o but_o a_o dead_a heart_n and_o a_o spiritual_a desertion_n yet_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n his_o soul_n cleave_v unto_o christ_n as_o to_o the_o sure_a rock_n he_o cry_v and_o belong_v after_o he_o and_o for_o all_o his_o fear_n and_o sorrow_n he_o will_v still_o rest_v upon_o he_o job-like_a though_o he_o slay_v i_o yet_o will_v i_o trust_v in_o he_o job_n 13.15_o 13.15_o job_n 13.15_o now_o this_o adherence_n unto_o christ_n may_v assure_v he_o of_o salvation_n for_o if_o we_o speak_v punctual_o and_o proper_o faith_n justify_v be_v not_o to_o be_v assure_v of_o pardon_n but_o to_o trust_v whole_o upon_o christ_n for_o pardon_n and_o thus_o if_o he_o do_v then_o may_v he_o with_o freedom_n of_o spirit_n say_v i_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n whence_o arise_v this_o conclusion_n which_o be_v the_o testimony_n of_o god_n spirit_n therefore_o i_o shall_v be_v save_v to_o our_o second_o doubt_n how_o we_o may_v discern_v betwixt_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o the_o illusion_n of_o satan_n i_o answer_v first_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v ever_o agreeable_a to_o the_o word_n and_o thus_o to_o try_v we_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o whosoever_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n do_v not_o commit_v sin_n 1_o john_n 3.9_o which_o be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v simple_o of_o the_o act_n of_o sin_v for_o who_o can_v say_v my_o heart_n be_v clean_a but_o in_o this_o sense_n he_o do_v not_o commit_v sin_n that_o be_v he_o make_v not_o a_o trade_n of_o sin_n it_o do_v not_o reign_v in_o he_o if_o then_o thou_o allow_v any_o lust_n in_o thy_o heart_n or_o go_v on_o in_o the_o willing_a practice_n of_o any_o one_o know_v sin_n &_o yet_o have_v a_o conceit_n that_o thou_o be_v sure_a of_o salvation_n alas_o thou_o be_v deceive_v thou_o have_v make_v a_o lie_n thy_o refuge_n and_o hide_v thyself_o under_o falsehood_n second_o god_n spirit_n breed_v in_o the_o soul_n a_o reverend_a love_n and_o insatiable_a longing_n after_o all_o good_a mean_n appoint_v and_o sanctify_v for_o our_o spiritual_a good_a and_o therefore_o that_o heart_n which_o sweet_o be_v affect_v and_o inflame_v with_o the_o word_n and_o prayer_n and_o meditation_n and_o conference_n and_o vow_n and_o sing_v of_o psalm_n and_o use_v of_o good_a book_n we_o doubt_v not_o but_o it_o be_v breathe_v on_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n whilst_o other_o that_o use_n all_o these_o ordinance_n out_o of_o custom_n or_o formality_n or_o some_o other_o sinister_a end_n alas_o their_o conceit_n of_o be_v right_a be_v build_v on_o the_o sand_n and_o therefore_o down_o it_o fall_v at_o death_n flood_n and_o be_v overwhelm_v in_o destruction_n three_o god_n spirit_n be_v ever_o attend_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n and_o therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n we_o know_v not_o how_o to_o pray_v but_o the_o spirit_n itself_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o with_o groan_n which_o can_v be_v utter_v rom._n 8.26_o 8.26_o rom._n 8.26_o o_o the_o bless_a operation_n of_o this_o spirit_n it_o even_o warm_v the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n with_o quicken_a life_n to_o pour_v out_o itself_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o lord_n his_o god_n sometime_o in_o more_o hearty_a prayer_n and_o sometime_o in_o more_o faint_a and_o cold_a yet_o always_o edge_v with_o infinite_a desire_n that_o they_o be_v far_o more_o fervent_a than_o they_o be_v but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n every_o delude_a pharisee_n be_v a_o mere_a stranger_n to_o the_o power_n of_o prayer_n if_o he_o pray_v often_o as_o i_o make_v it_o a_o question_n yet_o never_o pray_v he_o from_o a_o break_a heart_n and_o this_o argue_v that_o all_o his_o confidence_n be_v no_o better_a than_o a_o weed_n which_o grow_v of_o its_o own_o accord_n &_o therefore_o like_o jonahs_n gourd_n when_o affliction_n come_v it_o wither_v on_o a_o sudden_a four_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v often_o exercise_v and_o accompany_v with_o fear_n and_o jealousy_n and_o doubt_n and_o distrust_n and_o variety_n of_o temptation_n which_o many_o time_n will_v drive_v the_o soul_n thus_o distress_v to_o cry_v mighty_o to_o god_n to_o re-examine_a her_o ground_n to_o confirm_v her_o watch_n to_o resort_v for_o counsel_n where_o it_o may_v be_v have_v while_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o pharisee_n groundless_a conceit_n lie_v in_o his_o bosom_n without_o fear_n or_o jealousy_n or_o doubt_n or_o distrust_n or_o any_o such_o ado_n why_o so_o alas_o satan_n be_v too_o subtle_a to_o trouble_v he_o in_o that_o case_n he_o know_v his_o foundation_n be_v falsehood_n his_o hope_n of_o heaven_n no_o better_o than_o a_o golden_a dream_n and_o therefore_o in_o policy_n he_o hold_v his_o peace_n that_o he_o may_v hold_v he_o the_o fast_o five_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v ever_o most_o refresh_a at_o those_o time_n when_o we_o retire_v ourselves_o to_o converse_v with_o god_n in_o a_o more_o solemn_a manner_n when_o we_o feel_v that_o we_o have_v conquer_v or_o well_o curb_v some_o corruption_n of_o nature_n when_o we_o be_v well_o exercise_v in_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n or_o in_o our_o suffering_n by_o man_n for_o a_o good_a cause_n and_o conscience_n sake_n then_o or_o at_o such_o time_n shall_v we_o feel_v that_o sweetness_n of_o the_o spirit_n cherish_v our_o heart_n with_o a_o lightsome_a comfort_n that_o can_v be_v utter_v while_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o delude_a man_n be_v always_o alike_o peremptory_a in_o his_o confidence_n you_o shall_v not_o take_v he_o at_o any_o time_n without_o a_o bold_a persuasion_n that_o he_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v as_o well_o as_o the_o best_a thus_o like_o a_o man_n who_o lie_v

that_o it_o may_v shine_v in_o heaven_n but_o this_o be_v but_o the_o begin_n of_o his_o day_n now_o they_o be_v pass_v they_o have_v be_v go_v a_o little_a further_o we_o leave_v he_o at_o school_n but_o how_o learned_a he_o christ_n 8.2_o 1._o cor._n 2.2_o psal_n 8.2_o and_o he_o crucify_v this_o be_v the_o knowledge_n teach_v he_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o a_o wonderful_a manner_n out_o of_o the_o mouth_n of_o babe_n and_o suckling_n have_v thou_o o_o god_n ordain_v strength_n to_o consider_v again_o his_o religious_a word_n his_o upright_a action_n his_o hearty_a devotion_n his_o fear_n of_o god_n all_o then_o conclude_v as_o they_o do_v of_o john_n 1.66_o luke_n 1.66_o what_o manner_n of_o child_n shall_v this_o be_v no_o question_n the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v with_o

wonder_v at_o god_n power_n in_o this_o child_n poor_a weakness_n excuse_v i_o while_o i_o tell_v nothing_o but_o truth_n and_o i_o hope_v they_o will_v tend_v to_o our_o own_o instruction_n in_o the_o morning_n he_o will_v not_o stir_v out_o of_o door_n before_o he_o have_v pour_v out_o his_o prayer_n at_o noon_n he_o will_v not_o eat_v any_o meat_n before_o he_o have_v give_v the_o lord_n thanks_o at_o night_n he_o will_v not_o lie_v down_o on_o his_o bed_n before_o he_o have_v kneel_v down_o on_o his_o knee_n we_o may_v remember_v those_o time_n when_o sometime_o that_o he_o have_v

or_o meat_n without_o a_o grace_n his_o check_n be_v usual_a dare_v you_o do_v thus_o unless_o god_n be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o this_o bit_n of_o bread_n may_v choke_v we_o the_o wise_a sentence_n the_o religious_a word_n which_o often_o drop_v from_o his_o mouth_n like_o honey_n can_v we_o remember_v they_o and_o not_o grieve_v at_o the_o death_n of_o he_o that_o speak_v they_o what_o
