wicked_o i_o will_v not_o perform_v these_o thing_n which_o i_o have_v speak_v but_o we_o answer_v that_o the_o promise_n whereof_o paul_n here_o conditional_o paul_n speak_v not_o of_o such_o a_o

the_o law_n unto_o which_o pertain_v these_o threaten_n which_o be_v now_o allege_v yea_o the_o apostle_n himself_o sufficient_o express_v of_o what_o kind_n of_o promise_n he_o speak_v when_o he_o say_v by_o faith_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v of_o grace_n for_o if_o it_o consist_v frealy_a they_o hang_v it_o not_o of_o any_o condition_n or_o supposition_n and_o by_o this_o mean_v the_o promise_n can_v in_o no_o case_n be_v make_v frustrate_a this_o may_v the_o easy_o be_v understand_v by_o a_o similitude_n if_o a_o physician_n shall_v by_o take_v of_o any_o medicine_n promise_v health_n but_o yet_o upon_o this_o condition_n that_o he_o will_v have_v for_o his_o pain_n infinite_a sum_n of_o money_n &_o that_o the_o similitude_n a_o similitude_n sick_a person_n shall_v observe_v a_o very_a hard_a diet_n a_o poor_a man_n may_v easy_o answer_v that_o that_o promise_n of_o health_n be_v vain_a both_o for_o that_o he_o have_v not_o the_o money_n to_o pay_v and_o also_o for_o that_o be_v

require_v any_o work_n of_o the_o sick_a person_n but_o only_o that_o he_o will_v drink_v or_o some_o other_o way_n receive_v his_o medicine_n this_o promise_n be_v easy_o make_v firm_a so_o

the_o first_o principal_a point_n whereupon_o depend_v the_o certaynty_a of_o the_o promise_n namely_o for_o that_o the_o promise_n consist_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o be_v offer_v free_o the_o other_o principal_a point_n be_v the_o nature_n of_o faith_n for_o faith_n be_v a_o firm_a faith_n be_v not_o a_o uncertain_a or_o doubtful_a assent_n of_o the_o certainty_n of_o salvation_n we_o must_v not_o doubt_v of_o perseverance_n the_o testimony_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v firm_a assent_n not_o uncertain_a or_o doubtful_a but_o fix_v and_o constant_a as_o the_o apostle_n will_v afterward_o more_o at_o large_a declare_v when_o he_o discourse_v the_o example_n of_o abraham_n by_o these_o two_o principal_a point_n it_o be_v manifest_v how_o wicked_o they_o deal_v which_o teach_v man_n continual_o to_o doubt_v of_o the_o promise_n of_o salvation_n for_o if_o as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n teach_v we_o we_o ought_v to_o hope_v and_o such_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o hope_n not_o to_o confound_v we_o may_v manifest_o infer_v that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o doubt_v of_o our_o salvation_n there_o be_v which_o pretend_v that_o their_o doubt_n hereof_o spring_v for_o that_o they_o be_v uncertain_a whether_o they_o shall_v persevere_v unto_o the_o end_n or_o no._n but_o these_o man_n shall_v consider_v that_o we_o ought_v always_o to_o pray_v for_o perseverance_n for_o as_o say_v cyprian_n who_o also_o augustine_n follow_v in_o all_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o ask_v in_o the_o lord_n prayer_n be_v include_v perseverance_n and_o as_o james_n teach_v we_o must_v ask_v without_o doubt_v wherefore_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o we_o must_v by_o no_o mean_n doubt_v of_o preseverance_n and_o especial_o see_v we_o have_v in_o our_o heart_n the_o holy_a ghost_n always_o doubt_v they_z which_o believe_v that_o their_o sin_n be_v a_o let_v unto_o the_o promise_n be_v easy_o drive_v into_o desperation_n they_o which_o be_v not_o sure_a of_o their_o salvation_n can_v neither_o have_v peace_n nor_o tranquillity_n of_o conscience_n what_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v take_v heed_n of_o as_o touch_v certainty_n of_o salvation_n sin_n that_o waste_v the_o conscience_n we_o be_v never_o so_o assure_v but_o that_o there_o arise_v some_o doubt_n these_o thing_n be_v not_o repugnant_a in_o a_o man_n to_o be_v certain_a &_o yet_o somewhat_o to_o doubt_v bear_v a_o excellent_a testemony_n unto_o we_o thereof_o for_o as_o paul_n say_v in_o this_o epistle_n it_o be_v the_o spirit_n which_o bear_v witness_n unto_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o he_o which_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o he_o and_o paul_n write_v of_o himself_o that_o he_o be_v sure_a that_o nether_a life_n nor_o death_n nor_o principality_n nor_o power_n can_v pluck_v he_o from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n namely_o from_o that_o love_n wherewith_o god_n love_v he_o but_o that_o be_v frivoulous_a which_o some_o allege_v namely_o that_o paul_n speak_v these_o thing_n of_o himself_o only_o and_o that_o by_o a_o certain_a peculiar_a and_o assure_a revelation_n for_o when_o we_o come_v to_o that_o place_n we_o will_v declare_v that_o those_o thing_n pertain_v to_o all_o man_n universal_o other_o say_v that_o sin_n fear_v we_o away_o from_o the_o assure_a confidence_n of_o our_o salvation_n but_o so_o long_o as_o we_o be_v in_o this_o life_n we_o can_v not_o be_v without_o sin_n for_o john_n say_v if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v no_o sin_n we_o deceive_v ourselves_o and_o the_o truth_n be_v not_o in_o us._n wherefore_o so_o to_o

declare_v that_o the_o faithful_a be_v certain_a of_o their_o salvation_n otherwise_o there_o can_v be_v no_o tranquillity_n &_o peace_n in_o the_o conscience_n howbeit_o there_o be_v certain_a thing_n to_o be_v take_v heed_n of_o that_o we_o be_v not_o dangerous_o deceive_v in_o this_o certaynty_a for_o first_o we_o ought_v to_o knowâ—_n that_o it_o spring_v not_o of_o any_o righteousness_n which_o be_v in_o our_o mind_n and_o far_o that_o they_o which_o be_v most_o assure_v do_v not_o for_o all_o that_o want_v tremble_v and_o fear_n but_o be_v sore_o afraid_a of_o fall_n and_o of_o offend_v of_o god_n neither_o can_v that_o certaynty_a which_o we_o speak_v of_o have_v join_v with_o it_o that_o kind_a of_o sin_n which_o as_o augustine_n speak_v waste_v away_o the_o conscience_n and_o we_o must_v chief_o beware_v that_o this_o certain_o be_v not_o apply_v
offer_v and_o god_n have_v symplye_o and_o without_o condition_n promise_v unto_o we_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o eternal_a life_n and_o life_n the_o promise_n of_o the_o forgevenes_n of_o sin_n

again_o yâ—_z we_o may_v attain_v unto_o eternal_a life_n wherefore_o it_o be_v not_o mete_v that_o the_o certainty_n of_o hope_n shall_v be_v fix_v in_o one_o of_o these_o part_n only_o which_o thing_n if_o sometime_o good_a man_n do_v yâ—_z spring_v of_o humane_a affection_n and_o not_o of_o christian_a hope_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n if_o they_o sometime_o be_v deceive_v but_o now_o to_o return_v unto_o paul_n he_o of_o a_o certain_a great_a love_n hope_v to_o abide_v long_o with_o the_o phillippians_n &_o to_o edify_v they_o and_o for_o that_o he_o have_v not_o hope_n why_o paul_n be_v sometime_o deceive_v in_o his_o hope_n this_o out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n it_o easy_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o he_o be_v deceive_v but_o the_o sum_n of_o the_o piety_n

saint_n be_v disturb_v as_o though_o they_o doubt_v of_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n or_o of_o their_o salvation_n this_o happn_v not_o through_o the_o default_n either_o of_o faith_n or_o of_o hope_n but_o because_o so_o long_o as_o we_o live_v here_o we_o be_v not_o perfect_o salvation_n in_o the_o saint_n arise_v certain_a doubt_n of_o salvation_n furnish_v wherefore_o this_o doubt_n spring_v of_o the_o flesh_n &_o of_o humane_a wisdone_v we_o agree_v indeed_o with_o our_o adversary_n in_o this_o that_o certain_a doubt_n arise_v sometime_o of_o salvation_n even_o in_o the_o godly_a but_o herein_o we_o disagree_v from_o they_o for_o that_o they_o attribute_v this_o unto_o hope_n but_o we_o say_v that_o it_o come_v of_o humane_a infirmity_n only_o and_o that_o it_o be_v daily_o to_o be_v correct_v so_o that_o let_v a_o man_n think_v that_o he_o have_v so_o much_o profit_v in_o faith_n and_o hope_n how_o much_o he_o fele_v himself_o the_o more_o constant_a and_o firm_a but_o how_o

again_o no_o man_n can_v deny_v but_o that_o the_o mathematical_a science_n be_v most_o certain_a wherefore_o he_o which_o have_v learn_v they_o exact_o bold_o pronounce_v &_o nothing_o doubt_v of_o
