the_o lord_n believe_v i_o that_o i_o be_o in_o the_o father_n if_o you_o believe_v this_o it_o shall_v be_v for_o your_o own_o weal_n it_o shall_v not_o only_o be_v for_o my_o glory_n but_o for_o

so_o i_o say_v faith_n be_v powerful_a in_o word_n and_o deed_n and_o he_o who_o want_v this_o faith_n he_o want_v power_n in_o word_n and_o deed_n and_o so_o bless_a be_v he_o who_o have_v this_o

work_n than_o himself_o wrought_v i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a indeed_o the_o disciple_n of_o jesus_n christ_n after_o his_o ascension_n wrought_v great_a work_n than_o the_o lord_n do_v in_o his_o own_o person_n but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o the_o disciple_n as_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o glory_n that_o wrought_v these_o work_n by_o the_o disciple_n he_o utter_v his_o power_n use_v they_o as_o minister_n yet_o shall_v not_o the_o lord_n have_v wrought_v great_a work_n himself_o in_o his_o own_o person_n than_o he_o wrought_v by_o his_o disciple_n shall_v he_o not_o himself_o have_v wrought_v great_a work_n when_o he_o be_v in_o the_o earth_n than_o he_o wrought_v by_o his_o disciple_n when_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n i_o answer_v no_o for_o the_o lord_n so_o long_o as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o earth_n be_v but_o humble_a &_o that_o divine_a power_n do_v keep_v itself_o close_o &_o utter_v not_o itself_o in_o the_o full_a measure_n and_o so_o it_o behove_v to_o be_v that_o the_o godhead_n shall_v not_o utter_v the_o self_n in_o his_o humiliation_n buâ—_n when_o he_o be_v glorify_v in_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n in_o the_o heaven_n than_o the_o power_n of_o that_o godhead_n in_o he_o utter_v itself_o in_o great_a power_n than_o in_o the_o earth_n and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o more_o to_o prove_v that_o christ_n glorify_v wrought_v great_a thing_n by_o his_o apostle_n than_o he_o do_v in_o his_o own_o person_n when_o he_o be_v humble_v this_o one_o
argument_n be_v sufficient_a that_o after_o his_o ascension_n by_o their_o ministry_n the_o whole_a world_n be_v convert_v which_o come_v not_o to_o pass_v while_o he_o himself_o be_v on_o the_o earth_n because_o the_o godhead_n keep_v the_o self_n close_o but_o to_o come_v to_o the_o word_n follow_v the_o lord_n lay_v down_o the_o ground_n of_o this_o i_o go_v to_o my_o glory_n and_o i_o be_o pass_v to_o the_o father_n and_o therefore_o my_o glory_n shall_v utter_v itself_o the_o power_n of_o jesus_n christ_n must_v appear_v in_o the_o world_n at_o that_o time_n of_o his_o ascension_n when_o he_o go_v to_o his_o father_n to_o heaven_n than_o the_o power_n strike_v wonderful_o upon_o the_o earth_n from_o the_o heaven_n when_o we_o have_v the_o lord_n jesus_n now_o glorify_v in_o the_o heaven_n we_o have_v a_o more_o glorious_a power_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n than_o the_o jew_n who_o have_v his_o bodily_a presence_n so_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o be_v to_o pass_v up_o to_o the_o father_n so_o you_o see_v brethren_n this_o gift_n the_o disciple_n shall_v get_v that_o they_o shall_v work_v great_a work_n than_o he_o do_v be_v nothing_o prejudicial_a to_o the_o glory_n of_o our_o saviour_n howbeit_o it_o please_v the_o lord_n to_o work_v more_o glorious_a work_n by_o such_o weak_a instrument_n than_o he_o do_v in_o his_o own_o person_n it_o be_v not_o prejudicial_a to_o his_o power_n if_o the_o instrument_n of_o themselves_o have_v do_v these_o work_n it_o will_v have_v prejudge_v his_o glory_n but_o see_v they_o do_v they_o by_o his_o power_n it_o hinder_v nothing_o his_o glory_n yea_o i_o say_v his_o glory_n seem_v the_o more_o in_o the_o world_n by_o their_o work_n because_o it_o testify_v that_o he_o who_o be_v so_o base_a in_o the_o world_n have_v such_o a_o power_n in_o he_o when_o he_o ascend_v he_o come_v to_o another_o ground_n of_o work_v of_o great_a work_n what_o ever_o you_o shall_v ask_v in_o my_o name_n you_o shall_v get_v it_o that_o be_v send_v up_o your_o prayer_n to_o i_o to_o the_o heaven_n when_o i_o be_o glorify_v and_o what_o you_o shall_v ask_v in_o my_o name_n it_o shall_v be_v grant_v so_o this_o be_v another_o ground_n wherefore_o the_o apostle_n wrought_v great_a work_n after_o his_o ascension_n they_o pray_v to_o he_o and_o draw_v down_o his_o power_n out_o of_o heaven_n by_o prayer_n it_o be_v a_o power_n incomprehensible_a that_o be_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n now_o if_o any_o man_n or_o woman_n will_v be_v partaker_n of_o that_o power_n he_o must_v send_v up_o his_o prayer_n to_o heaven_n by_o faith_n in_o he_o to_o draw_v down_o that_o power_n to_o the_o world_n we_o see_v the_o apostle_n act._n 4._o pray_v earnest_o that_o by_o their_o hand_n he_o will_v work_v sign_n and_o wonder_n and_o they_o obtain_v it_o it_o be_v a_o pity_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v so_o great_a a_o power_n in_o jesus_n christ_n to_o life_n and_o we_o miserable_a creature_n have_v so_o great_a need_n and_o want_v of_o it_o shall_v have_v no_o part_n of_o it_o the_o fault_n lie_v not_o in_o christ_n for_o there_o be_v power_n and_o virtue_n enough_o in_o he_o to_o save_v a_o thousand_o world_n but_o this_o be_v the_o fault_n man_n and_o woman_n can_v pray_v because_o they_o want_v faith_n so_o all_o the_o want_n that_o be_v in_o we_o that_o we_o want_n heaven_n and_o life_n everlasting_a all_o the_o fault_n be_v in_o ourselves_o that_o can_v pray_v and_o say_v lord_n there_o be_v a_o wonderful_a power_n in_o thou_o and_o thou_o can_v save_v a_o thousand_o world_n therefore_o lord_n by_o thy_o power_n save_o i_o it_o be_v a_o foul_a shame_n that_o this_o shall_v inlake_v on_o our_o part_n that_o we_o can_v open_v our_o mouth_n to_o seek_v grace_n see_v such_o abundance_n such_o a_o infinite_a power_n and_o treasure_n be_v in_o he_o and_o if_o there_o be_v a_o great_a treasure_n to_o be_v deal_v so_o that_o every_o man_n may_v have_v his_o part_n he_o will_v condemn_v

spirit_n he_o teach_v not_o as_o man_n will_v teach_v who_o will_v teach_v this_o year_n and_o leave_v off_o the_o next_o year_n but_o if_o he_o take_v a_o man_n or_o a_o woman_n in_o hand_n continual_o he_o teach_v they_o and_o if_o this_o be_v true_a that_o continual_o he_o reveal_v and_o teach_v that_o be_v also_o true_a there_o be_v no_o man_n nor_o woman_n who_o have_v begin_v to_o get_v knowledge_n by_o his_o teach_n but_o that_o man_n or_o woman_n must_v grow_v and_o can_v go_v back_o it_o be_v a_o vain_a thing_n to_o say_v a_o man_n or_o a_o woman_n who_o have_v get_v true_a faith_n in_o some_o measure_n although_o it_o be_v no_o great_a than_o a_o grain_n of_o mustardseed_n that_o he_o can_v lose_v the_o faith_n which_o he_o have_v once_o get_v as_o jesus_n christ_n can_v rest_v in_o thy_o soul_n but_o aye_o go_v forward_o till_o faith_n be_v turn_v into_o sight_n so_o i_o say_v thus_o to_o refute_v those_o who_o say_v that_o they_o who_o have_v get_v true_a faith_n can_v lose_v it_o he_o that_o have_v get_v the_o holy_a spirit_n can_v never_o lose_v he_o when_o he_o have_v set_v down_o before_o the_o father_n first_o his_o knowledge_n of_o the_o father_n and_o secondlie_o the_o knowledge_n that_o the_o disciple_n have_v of_o the_o father_n partly_o that_o which_o they_o have_v present_o and_o partly_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v now_o he_o come_v to_o the_o end_n and_o say_v all_o this_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o thy_o love_n may_v be_v in_o they_o and_o i_o in_o they_o all_o this_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o all_o this_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n look_v to_o the_o end_n of_o it_o all_o tend_v to_o this_o end_n that_o god_n may_v love_v we_o and_o we_o may_v feel_v in_o our_o heart_n this_o love_n of_o god_n therefore_o brethren_n mark_v it_o well_o count_v not_o of_o knowledge_n even_o of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n except_o that_o thou_o feel_v the_o love_n of_o god_n follow_v upon_o it_o look_v that_o all_o thy_o knowledge_n of_o god_n be_v with_o a_o sense_n and_o feel_n of_o this_o love_n that_o god_n love_v thou_o whereto_o serve_v the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n unto_o thou_o if_o thou_o have_v no_o sense_n and_o no_o feel_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n some_o man_n and_o woman_n will_v glory_v that_o they_o know_v this_o and_o that_o and_o thus_o far_o of_o god_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n they_o take_v no_o heed_n to_o that_o sense_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o the_o heart_n i_o have_v rather_o have_v a_o little_a knowledge_n with_o the_o sense_n of_o that_o love_n wherewith_o he_o love_v i_o than_o all_o the_o knowledge_n under_o the_o sun_n if_o my_o heart_n be_v void_a of_o that_o sweet_a love_n count_n never_o of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n although_o thou_o have_v all_o the_o scripture_n perâ—uiere_n if_o thou_o find_v not_o this_o love_n flow_v from_o that_o knowledge_n and_o a_o sweetness_n and_o joy_n in_o thy_o heart_n arise_v of_o this_o love_n and_o aye_o
