so_o as_o idolatry_n be_v that_o violation_n of_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n which_o do_v eminentér_n contain_v all_o the_o rest_n in_o it_o so_o be_v unbelief_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n and_o as_o the_o formal_a nature_n of_o idolatry_n lie_v in_o disclaim_v god_n from_o be_v god_n or_o form_n be_v our_o god_n or_o from_o be_v our_o alone_a god_n even_o so_o the_o formal_a nature_n of_o unbelief_n lie_v in_o disclaim_v christ_n either_o from_o be_v a_o redeemer_n and_o lord_n or_o from_o be_v our_o redeemer_n and_o lord_n or_o from_o be_v our_o only_a redeemer_n and_o lord_n this_o be_v well_o consider_v will_v direct_v you_o true_o and_o punctual_o where_o to_o find_v the_o very_a formal_a be_v and_o nature_n of_o faith_n not_o in_o believe_v the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n or_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n or_o our_o salvation_n nor_o in_o affiance_n or_o recumbency_n though_o that_o be_v a_o most_o immediate_a product_n of_o it_o nor_o in_o assurance_n as_o divine_n be_v wont_a to_o teach_v 80._o year_n ago_o nor_o in_o obedience_n or_o follow_v of_o christ_n as_o a_o guide_n to_o heaven_n or_o as_o a_o captain_n or_o mere_a pattern_n and_o lawgiver_n as_o the_o wretched_a socinian_o teach_v but_o in_o the_o three_o act_n above_o mention_v 1._o take_v christ_n for_o a_o redeemer_n and_o lord_n which_o be_v by_o assent_n 2._o take_v he_o for_o our_o redeemer_n saviour_n and_o lord_n which_o be_v by_o consent_n 3._o take_v he_o for_o our_o only_a redeemer_n saviour_n and_o lord_n which_o be_v the_o moral_a sincerity_n of_o the_o former_a and_o the_o essential_a difference_v property_n of_o it_o not_o whereby_o faith_n be_v difference_v from_o love_n or_o joy_n etc._n etc._n but_o whereby_o that_o faith_n in_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o gospel_n

assent_n consent_n and_o preference_n of_o christ_n before_o all_o other_o do_v speak_v the_o whole_a essence_n of_o faith_n for_o the_o common_a opinion_n that_o justify_v faith_n as_o justify_v do_v consist_v in_o any_o one_o single_a act_n be_v a_o wretched_a mistake_n as_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o further_o anon_o thesis_n lxv_o scripture_n do_v not_o take_v the_o word_n faith_n as_o strict_o

such_o or_o for_o itself_o the_o object_n of_o this_o faith_n but_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n as_o clothe_v with_o his_o office_n and_o authority_n be_v this_o object_n explication_n i_o put_v all_o these_o together_o as_o aim_v at_o one_o scope_n &_o i_o shall_v now_o explain_v they_o distinct_o to_o the_o 65._o first_o that_o faith_n be_v not_o take_v for_o any_o one_o single_a act_n i_o prove_v thus_o 1._o if_o it_o be_v but_o one_o single_a act_n i_o mean_v specifical_o not_o numerical_o than_o it_o can_v not_o according_a to_o the_o common_a opinion_n of_o philosopher_n be_v the_o act_n of_o the_o whole_a soul_n but_o faith_n must_v be_v the_o act_n of_o the_o whole_a soul_n or_o else_o part_v of_o the_o soul_n will_v receive_v christ_n and_o part_n will_v not_o and_o part_n of_o it_o will_v entertain_v he_o and_o part_v not_o some_o think_v the_o soul_n be_v as_o the_o body_n which_o have_v a_o hand_n to_o receive_v thing_n in_o the_o name_n and_o for_o the_o use_n of_o the_o whole_a but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o christ_n be_v not_o only_o take_v into_o the_o hand_n but_o as_o the_o blood_n and_o spirit_n which_o be_v receive_v into_o every_o live_a part_n though_o i_o intend_v not_o the_o comparison_n shall_v reach_v to_o the_o manner_n of_o receive_v neither_o be_v the_o soul_n so_o divisible_a into_o part_n as_o the_o body_n be_v and_o therefore_o have_v not_o several_a part_n for_o several_a office_n 2._o the_o most_o of_o our_o accurate_a studious_a divine_n of_o late_a do_v take_v faith_n to_o be_v seat_v in_o both_o faculty_n understanding_n and_o will_n but_o if_o so_o according_a to_o the_o common_a philosophy_n it_o can_v be_v any_o one_o single_a act._n neither_o second_o be_v it_o in_o various_a act_n of_o one_o single_a faculty_n for_o 1._o it_o will_v in_o my_o judgement_n never_o be_v prove_v that_o the_o soul_n have_v faculty_n which_o be_v real_o distinct_a from_o itself_o or_o from_o each_o other_o these_o faculty_n be_v but_o the_o soul_n itself_o able_a to_o do_v thus_o and_o thus_o from_o its_o natural_a be_v vide_fw-la scaliger_n exercit._fw-la 107._o sect._n 3_o understanding_n and_o willing_a be_v its_o immediate_a act_n and_o perhaps_o those_o very_a act_n be_v more_o diversify_v or_o distinct_a in_o their_o object_n then_o in_o themselves_o the_o soul_n apprehension_n of_o a_o object_n as_o true_a we_o call_v understanding_n in_o regard_n of_o its_o metaphysical_a truth_n it_o be_v a_o simple_a apprehension_n as_o we_o receive_v this_o truth_n upon_o the_o word_n of_o another_o it_o be_v assent_v and_o belief_n as_o this_o object_n be_v consider_v as_o good_a our_o motion_n towards_o it_o be_v call_v will_v if_o absent_a desire_v hope_v if_o present_a complacency_n joy_v when_o we_o will_v a_o thing_n as_o good_a any_o thing_n strong_o and_o apprehend_v its_o goodness_n any_o thing_n clear_o this_o we_o call_v love_n etc._n etc._n but_o whether_o all_o these_o be_v real_o distinct_a kind_n of_o act_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v very_o doubtful_a much_o more_o whether_o they_o proceed_v from_o distinct_a faculty_n as_o i_o be_o not_o of_o my_o lord_n brook_n mind_n concern_v the_o unity_n of_o all_o thing_n so_o neither_o will_v i_o unnecessary_o admit_v of_o any_o division_n especial_o in_o so_o spiritual_a and_o perfect_a a_o piece_n as_o the_o sell_v know_v how_o much_o of_o

christ_n be_v a_o object_n suit_v to_o both_o and_o than_o what_o doubt_n be_v it_o whether_o faith_n be_v in_o both_o 1._o for_o the_o will_v no_o man_n will_v question_v it_o that_o it_o be_v capable_a of_o receive_v christ_n and_o christ_n a_o suitable_a object_n for_o it_o 2._o and_o for_o the_o understanding_n it_o do_v as_o much_o incline_v to_o truth_n as_o the_o will_n to_o goodness_n and_o as_o true_o receive_v its_o object_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o true_a as_o the_o will_n do_v receive_v its_o object_n as_o good_n if_o you_o will_v see_v it_o prove_v full_o that_o
