Of unbelief; or the want of readiness to lay hold on the comfort given by Christ. II. Not going to Christ for life and salvation is an exceeding great sin, yet it is pardonable. In the first book is shewed (besides many other things) 1 What unbelief it is that is here spoken of ... 7 Helps to attain readiness in beleeving. In the second book is shewed, 1 That unbelief is a great sin, and exceeding provoking unto God ... 7 God hath pardoned unbelief, and wil pardon it.

if_o you_o do_v not_o believe_v the_o truth_n you_o may_v be_v damn_v so_o the_o text_n say_v in_o the_o second_o epistle_n to_o the_o thessalonian_o 2.12_o that_o they_o all_o may_v be_v damn_v that_o believe_v not_o the_o truth_n that_o word_n all_o be_v put_v in_o to_o show_v both_o how_o great_a the_o punishment_n be_v of_o those_o that_o do_v not_o believe_v as_o a_o fire_n grow_v hot_a by_o have_v much_o timber_n so_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v hot_a against_o such_o kind_n of_o man_n it_o be_v a_o increase_n of_o coal_n upon_o they_o god_n put_v in_o all_n there_o because_o he_o

error_n of_o those_o time_n which_o be_v rank_a now_o as_o they_o be_v then_o that_o man_n do_v not_o abide_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o 2_o joh._n 10._o if_o any_o man_n come_v unto_o you_o and_o bring_v not_o this_o doctrine_n receive_v he_o not_o nor_o bid_v he_o god_n speed_n for_o this_o will_v hinder_v your_o of_o receive_v a_o full_a reward_n and_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o the_o corinthian_n you_o shall_v be_v save_v it_o may_v be_v but_o as_o it_o be_v by_o fire_n it_o will_v cost_v you_o many_o a_o heart_n break_v and_o many_o a_o frown_n from_o god_n and_o

treasure_n for_o himself_o look_v you_o therefore_o unto_o your_o understanding_n i_o think_v this_o shall_v make_v a_o man_n very_o cautious_a yea_o very_a obstinate_a against_o error_n when_o he_o once_o understand_v that_o he_o must_v sustain_v so_o great_a a_o loss_n and_o be_v hinder_v from_o so_o great_a a_o gain_n by_o it_o as_o a_o man_n sometime_o say_v unto_o his_o friend_n if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o you_o i_o may_v

but_o most_o plain_o in_o 2_o cor._n 4.13_o the_o apostle_n speak_v to_o this_o purpose_n have_v say_v he_o the_o same_o spirit_n of_o faith_n according_a as_o it_o be_v write_v i_o believe_v therefore_o have_v i_o speak_v we_o also_o believe_v and_o therefore_o speak_v as_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o 1_o pet._n 1.11_o that_o whatsoever_o the_o prophet_n speak_v the_o spirit_n speak_v in_o they_o it_o be_v not_o they_o that_o speak_v but_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o father_n that_o speak_v in_o they_o so_o the_o apostle_n give_v the_o reason_n why_o he_o do_v deliver_v that_o doctrine_n to_o the_o corinthian_n because_o say_v he_o it_o be_v suggest_v unto_o i_o by_o faith_n and_o if_o you_o ask_v he_o how_o he_o come_v by_o that_o faith_n he_o say_v he_o have_v it_o by_o the_o spirit_n it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o the_o grace_n of_o faith_n as_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n which_o make_v he_o both_o to_o believe_v and_o speak_v it_o be_v indeed_o we_o that_o do_v believe_v as_o the_o prophet_n mouth_n and_o lip_n and_o understanding_n be_v all_o use_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n but_o as_o what_o they_o speak_v be_v put_v into_o they_o so_o what_o we_o do_v when_o we_o do_v believe_v be_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n have_v the_o same_o spirit_n of_o faith_n we_o believe_v say_v the_o apostle_n and_o therefore_o speak_v believe_v be_v our_o act_n but_o it_o be_v by_o his_o virtue_n and_o that_o i_o may_v open_v this_o more_o plain_o to_o you_o i_o shall_v insist_v upon_o these_o three_o particular_n i._o that_o that_o faith_n whereby_o we_o do_v believe_v be_v not_o of_o or_o from_o ourselves_o but_o we_o receive_v it_o ii_o that_o in_o that_o act_n whereunto_o we_o be_v enable_v by_o god_n we_o act_n as_o little_a as_o can_v be_v but_o be_v act_v we_o be_v rather_o receiver_n than_o doer_n iii_o that_o though_o we_o do_v believe_v never_o so_o little_a yet_o the_o least_o degree_n of_o faith_n will_v give_v we_o jesus_n christ_n and_o all_o his_o privilege_n as_o many_o as_o receive_v he_o have_v this_o dignity_n say_v he_o to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n though_o they_o do_v but_o receive_v he_o for_o the_o first_o of_o these_o i._o we_o can_v of_o ourselves_o believe_v or_o receive_v christ_n therefore_o faith_n be_v say_v in_o ephe._n 2.8_o to_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n not_o of_o ourselves_o but_o through_o grace_n you_o be_v save_v through_o faith_n and_o not_o of_o yourselves_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n he_o lay_v no_o more_o upon_o faith_n but_o only_o this_o that_o it_o be_v the_o mean_n of_o our_o salvation_n god_n be_v the_o chief_n and_o principal_n and_o efficient_a cause_n you_o be_v save_v through_o faith_n but_o even_o that_o you_o have_v not_o of_o yourselves_o in_o

19.1_o that_o be_v none_o can_v do_v and_o frame_v so_o glorious_a a_o thing_n beside_o himself_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o add_v one_o degree_n unto_o our_o faith_n when_o we_o have_v get_v it_o and_o therefore_o we_o can_v obtain_v of_o ourselves_o the_o least_o degree_n before_o we_o have_v it_o it_o be_v far_o more_o easy_a for_o a_o man_n to_o increase_v a_o stock_n then_o to_o get_v it_o
