A41843	The mystery of faith opened up, or, Some sermons concerning faith (two whereof were not formerly printed) wherein the nature, excellency, and usefulnesse of that noble grace is much cleared, and the practice thereof most powerfully pressed : whereunto are added other three sermons, two concerning death / by Mr. Andrew Gray ...; all these sermons being now carefully revised, and much corrected.

love_n do_v flow_v three_o faith_n make_v christ_n more_o precious_a than_o sense_n because_o faith_n look_v not_o only_o to_o what_o christ_n be_v present_o but_o unto_o what_o christ_n be_v from_o

the_o sweet_a travel_v of_o faith_n betwixt_o infinite_a love_n from_o eternity_n before_o and_o infinite_a love_n unto_o eternity_n after_o must_v make_v faith_n to_o fall_v in_o a_o sea_n of_o wonder_v and_o raise_v the_o thought_n to_o the_o high_a pitoâ—_n of_o desire_n and_o estimation_n four_o we_o may_v likewise_o add_v that_o the_o impression_n of_o the_o preciousness_n of_o christ_n which_o sense_n make_v upon_o the_o soul_n it_o be_v not_o so_o constant_a not_o so_o single_a as_o that_o which_o faith_n do_v make_v o_o but_o the_o grace_n of_o faith_n give_v the_o christian_a a_o broad_a look_n of_o christ_n and_o let_v he_o see_v christ_n clothe_v with_o ornament_n of_o glory_n and_o divine_a majesty_n sense_n follow_v christ_n rather_o that_o it_o may_v see_v his_o miracle_n and_o love_n that_o it_o may_v be_v feed_v with_o loaf_n but_o faith_n follow_v christ_n for_o himself_o above_o all_o ii_o the_o second_o consideration_n to_o speak_v the_o advantage_n of_o it_o be_v that_o the_o grace_n of_o faith_n it_o have_v as_o it_o be_v a_o arbitrary_a power_n with_o god_n so_o that_o whatsoever_o a_o christian_a shall_v seek_v in_o faith_n he_o shall_v receive_v it_o it_o

christ_n put_v a_o blank_a in_o a_o christian_n hand_n who_o be_v much_o in_o the_o exercise_n of_o faith_n according_a to_o that_o in_o matth._n 20._o 32._o be_v there_o not_o a_o ample_a blank_n

of_o this_o that_o faith_n be_v that_o grace_n that_o present_v to_o a_o christian_a the_o absolute_a purity_n and_o spotless_a holiness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o also_o because_o it_o make_v
