i_o to_o answer_v to_o these_o doubt_n of_o thou_o i_o say_v my_o right_a dear_a brother_n that_o thou_o must_v assure_v thyself_o that_o all_o these_o be_v but_o temptation_n of_o the_o devil_n who_o by_o all_o mean_n seek_v to_o rob_v we_o of_o that_o faith_n and_o confidence_n that_o spring_v of_o faith_n and_o assure_v we_o of_o god_n good_a will_n towards_o us._n he_o labour_v to_o strip_v our_o soul_n out_o of_o this_o precious_a garment_n for_o he_o know_v that_o none_o be_v a_o true_a christian_a except_o he_o believe_v god_n word_n which_o promise_v forgiveness_n of_o all_o sin_n and_o peace_n to_o all_o they_o which_o accept_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n very_o i_o say_v that_o he_o which_o upon_o these_o promise_n of_o god_n persuade_v not_o himself_o assure_o that_o god_n be_v a_o merciful_a and_o love_a father_n unto_o he_o nor_o with_o steadfast_a confidence_n look_v to_o receive_v the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o heavenly_a kingdom_n at_o his_o hand_n be_v not_o faithful_a in_o deed_n and_o make_v himself_o utter_o unworthy_a of_o god_n grace_n in_o respect_n whereof_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o we_o be_v the_o temple_n 3_o of_o god_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o we_o firm_o maintain_v the_o confidence_n and_o glory_n of_o our_o hope_n unto_o the_o end_n and_o in_o another_o place_n he_o exhort_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o give_v over_o our_o trust_n 10._o which_o have_v great_a reward_n of_o recompense_n and_o therefore_o my_o brethren_n let_v we_o give_v our_o whole_a endeavour_n to_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n as_o it_o become_v good_a child_n and_o beware_v that_o we_o sin_v not_o as_o near_o as_o we_o can_v and_o although_o we_o fall_v oftentimes_o into_o sin_n through_o our_o own_o frailty_n yet_o let_v we_o not_o by_o and_o by_o surmise_n that_o we_o be_v vessel_n of_o wrath_n or_o that_o we_o be_v utter_o forsake_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o we_o have_v our_o advocate_n jesus_n christ_n before_o gud_n the_o father_n and_o he_o be_v the_o atonementmaker_n for_o our_o sin_n let_v we_o bethink_v we_o of_o the_o opinion_n of_o s._n austin_n who_o say_v that_o none_o of_o the_o saint_n be_v righteous_a and_o without_o sin_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o that_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v righteous_a and_o holy_a so_o farforth_o as_o he_o retain_v his_o holiness_n with_o affection_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o have_v affliction_n reprobation_n and_o tribulation_n let_v we_o not_o think_v that_o god_n send_v they_o because_o he_o be_v our_o enemy_n but_o because_o he_o be_v our_o most_o love_a father_n the_o lord_n say_v solomon_n chastise_v he_o who_o he_o love_v and_o scourge_v every_o child_n of_o his_o who_o he_o receive_v wherefore_o if_o we_o have_v 5._o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n whereby_o man_n be_v receive_v of_o god_n for_o his_o child_n we_o must_v not_o doubt_v of_o god_n grace_n and_o good_a will_n towards_o us._n and_o when_o we_o perceive_v ourselves_o to_o delight_n in_o god_n word_n and_o to_o have_v a_o desire_n to_o follow_v the_o life_n of_o jesus_n by_o christ_n we_o must_v steadfast_o believe_v that_o we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o those_o thing_n can_v be_v do_v by_o the_o power_n of_o man_n wisdom_n but_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o dwell_v in_o we_o by_o faith_n and_o be_v

out_o in_o jesus_n christ_n all_o we_o that_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n say_v saint_n paul_n be_v 3._o become_v the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o because_o we_o be_v his_o child_n he_o have_v

the_o same_o spirit_n bear_v our_o spirit_n record_n that_o we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n now_o then_o if_o we_o be_v child_n we_o be_v also_o heir_n and_o we_o must_v mark_v well_o that_o in_o these_o two_o place_n the_o apostle_n s_o paul_n speak_v plain_o not_o of_o any_o special_a revelation_n but_o of_o a_o certain_a record_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v common_o yield_v to_o all_o such_o as_o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n then_o if_o the_o holy_a ghost_n assure_v we_o that_o we_o be_v god_n child_n and_o heir_n why_o shall_v we_o doubt_v of_o our_o

our_o side_n who_o can_v be_v against_o we_o and_o therefore_o if_o i_o plain_o perceive_v that_o god_n have_v call_v i_o by_o give_v i_o faith_n and_o the_o fruit_n of_o faith_n that_o be_v to_o

we_o know_v that_o god_n have_v certain_o give_v we_o everlasting_a life_n but_o there_o be_v some_o which_o say_v that_o no_o man_n ought_v to_o presume_v so_o far_o as_o to_o boast_v himself_o to_o

and_o mere_a mercy_n of_o god_n and_o as_o though_o it_o be_v a_o presumptuousnesse_n to_o profess_v himself_o a_o christian_n or_o as_o though_o a_o man_n can_v be_v a_o christian_a without_o the_o

possible_a to_o separate_v faith_n and_o christian_n the_o holy_a ghost_n asunder_o see_v that_o faith_n be_v the_o peculiar_a work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n if_o it_o be_v presumption_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v in_o we_o why_o do_v saint_n paul_n bid_v the_o corinthian_n try_v themselves_o whether_o they_o have_v faith_n or_o no_o affirm_v they_o to_o be_v reprobate_n if_o they_o know_v not_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v in_o they_o but_o in_o very_a deed_n it_o be_v a_o great_a blindness_n to_o accuse_v the_o christian_n of_o presumptuousnesse_n for_o

to_o paradise_n by_o this_o false_a conclusion_n thou_o may_v know_v my_o brother_n in_o what_o a_o error_n thou_o be_v for_o thou_o ween_v to_o have_v the_o faith_n that_o make_v man_n righteous_a and_o thou_o have_v it_o not_o thou_o say_v thou_o 3_o be_v rich_a and_o have_v no_o need_n of_o any_o thing_n and_o thou_o see_v not_o how_o thou_o be_v poor_a wretched_a blind_a and_o naked_a i_o

rich_a and_o to_o clothe_v thyself_o with_o white_a raiment_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n with_o christ_n innocency_n to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o shame_n of_o thy_o nakedness_n which_o be_v the_o great_a filthiness_n of_o thy_o comparison_n sin_n be_v not_o see_v to_o the_o whole_a world_n then_o be_v the_o justify_n faith_n as_o it_o be_v a_o flame_n of_o fire_n which_o can_v but_o cast_v forth_o

that_o faith_n alone_o consume_v and_o burn_v away_o sin_n without_o the_o help_n of_o work_n and_o yet_o that_o the_o same_o faith_n can_v be_v without_o good_a work_n wherefore_o like_a as_o if_o we_o see_v a_o flame_n of_o fire_n that_o give_v no_o light_n we_o know_v by_o and_o by_o that_o it_o be_v but_o vain_a and_o paint_a even_o so_o when_o we_o see_v not_o some_o light_n of_o good_a

the_o effect_n of_o faith_n also_o we_o may_v liken_v this_o holy_a faith_n to_o the_o godhead_n which_o be_v in_o jesus_n comparison_n christ_n who_o be_v very_a man_n but_o without_o sin_n do_v

not_o the_o cause_n that_o he_o be_v god_n for_o before_o he_o do_v any_o of_o those_o thing_n he_o be_v god_n and_o the_o lawful_a and_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n and_o he_o need_v not_o to_o work_v those_o miracle_n to_o make_v himself_o god_n by_o they_o but_o forasmuch_o as_o he_o be_v god_n therefore_o he_o do_v they_o and_o so_o the_o miracle_n that_o christ_n wrought_v make_v he_o not_o to_o be_v god_n but_o show_v open_o that_o he_o be_v god_n in_o like_o wise_a true_a faith_n be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o godhead_n in_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o christian_a which_o do_v wondrous_a work_n and_o be_v never_o weary_a of_o well-doing_n and_o yet_o those_o work_n be_v not_o the_o cause_n that_o a_o christian_n be_v a_o christian_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o he_o be_v righteous_a good_a holy_a and_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n neither_o need_v he_o to_o work_v all_o those_o good_a work_n to_o become_v such_o a_o one_o but_o forasmuch_o as_o he_o be_v a_o christian_n by_o faith_n like_a as_o jesus_n christ_n be_v a_o man_n be_v also_o god_n by_o his_o godhead_n he_o do_v all_o those_o good_a work_n which_o make_v not_o the_o christian_n to_o be_v righteous_a and_o good_a but_o show_v he_o to_o be_v good_a righteous_a and_o holy_a so_o then_o like_a as_o christ_n godhead_n be_v the_o cause_n that_o he_o wrought_v miracy_n even_o so_o faith_n work_v through_o love_n be_v

those_o miracle_n beside_o that_o they_o glorify_v god_n be_v also_o a_o great_a honour_n unto_o jesus_n christ_n as_o he_o be_v man_n who_o for_o his_o obedience_n even_o unto_o death_n be_v
