this_o rest_n of_o faith_n for_o justification_n st._n paul_n show_v in_o the_o next_o word_n that_o they_o rather_o confirm_v and_o ratify_v the_o pardon_n than_o question_n or_o lessen_v it_o through_o that_o experience_n of_o god_n wise_a and_o faithful_a love_n in_o make_v all_o thing_n work_v together_o for_o good_a to_o those_o that_o love_v he_o above_o all_o who_o shall_v separate_v we_o from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n shall_v tribulation_n or_o distress_n persecution_n or_o nakedness_n famine_n or_o sword_n in_o all_o these_o we_o be_v more_o than_o conqueror_n through_o he_o that_o love_v we_o if_o weak_a christian_n come_v to_o christ_n with_o faithful_a desire_n and_o resolution_n to_o wear_v his_o yoke_n and_o bear_v his_o burden_n meek_o and_o humble_o find_v not_o this_o rest_n of_o justification_n with_o such_o a_o degree_n of_o peace_n and_o joy_n as_o st._n paul_n express_v it_o be_v not_o because_o christ_n give_v they_o not_o what_o he_o

to_o they_o in_o st._n matt._n 9.24_o be_v it_o unto_o you_o according_a to_o your_o faith_n if_o your_o faith_n be_v strong_a and_o lively_a both_o in_o believe_v my_o promise_n and_o merit_n and_o in_o undertake_v that_o yoke_n of_o his_o yoke_n though_o they_o find_v not_o as_o yet_o that_o rest_n and_o peace_n which_o their_o soul_n desire_v pray_v and_o stay_v for_o bless_a be_v he_o that_o

for_o ever_o neither_o will_v i_o be_v always_o wrath_n lest_o the_o spirit_n shall_v fail_v before_o i_o and_o the_o soul_n which_o i_o have_v make_v thus_o you_o have_v see_v the_o first_o rest_n which_o true_a believer_n enter_v into_o even_o here_o in_o this_o life_n the_o rest_n of_o pardon_n and_o justification_n upon_o their_o repentance_n and_o faith_n in_o christ_n the_o second_o be_v

of_o grace_n holiness_n and_o comfort_n which_o faith_n procure_v by_o earnest_a prayer_n now_o this_o be_v so_o necessary_o join_v with_o the_o other_o the_o rest_n of_o pardon_n that_o it_o be_v

justification_n from_o sin_n guilt_n and_o condemn_a power_n by_o his_o blood_n unless_o we_o so_o value_v that_o pardon_n and_o its_o price_n as_o sincere_o to_o hate_v and_o be_v hearty_o willing_a to_o forsake_v that_o sin_n which_o the_o wisdom_n and_o holy_a justice_n of_o god_n can_v not_o or_o will_v not_o remit_v or_o forgive_v but_o at_o such_o a_o price_n as_o his_o own_o eternal_a
