that_o i_o can_v partake_v of_o except_o i_o believe_v i_o will_v like_v it_o well_o but_o for_o that_o one_o thing_n i_o will_v but_o i_o can_v believe_v to_o answer_v this_o if_o the_o gospel_n hold_v forth_o christ_n answ_n faith_n the_o gospel_n breed_v faith_n and_o salvation_n upon_o believe_v as_o many_o oft_o preach_v it_o be_v little_o better_a tiding_n than_o the_o law_n for_o it_o be_v as_o easy_a for_o a_o man_n of_o himself_o to_o keep_v the_o ten_o comandment_n by_o obey_v as_o to_o believe_v of_o himself_o to_o have_v faith_n to_o receive_v christ_n therefore_o that_o be_v a_o misunderstanding_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o gospel_n say_v not_o bring_v faith_n with_o thou_o and_o then_o here_o be_v all_o grace_n &_o salvation_n no_o for_o whence_o shall_v i_o have_v faith_n whatsoever_o be_v of_o the_o flesh_n be_v flesh_n and_o what_o be_v of_o i_o be_v flesh_n and_o abominable_a to_o god_n therefore_o the_o gospel_n expect_v not_o that_o any_o sinner_n shall_v bring_v faith_n for_o he_o have_v it_o not_o nay_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n to_o endeavour_v to_o have_v it_o of_o himself_o but_o the_o gospel_n as_o it_o bring_v salvation_n so_o it_o breed_v faith_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o sinner_n the_o same_o word_n that_o make_v know_v salvation_n the_o same_o word_n breed_v and_o beget_v faith_n in_o the_o heart_n to_o receive_v it_o that_o god_n that_o

shall_v expect_v faith_n from_o a_o poor_a sinner_n whereas_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v and_o learned_a man_n hold_v that_o adam_n in_o innocence_n have_v not_o the_o faith_n that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o and_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n have_v it_o not_o and_o whence_o shall_v a_o poor_a sinner_n have_v it_o it_o be_v god_n that_o give_v repentance_n to_o israel_n and_o

it_o be_v as_o harsh_a as_o the_o law_n therefore_o never_o stand_v off_o about_o faith_n for_o he_o that_o give_v grace_n and_o salvation_n will_v work_v faith_n again_o object_n gospel_n
