god_n to_o be_v the_o father_n maker_n of_o the_o world_n almighty_a the_o only_a true_a and_o live_a god_n we_o believe_v the_o incarnation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n we_o believe_v in_o the_o holy_a

the_o light_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o jesus_n christ_n lighten_v to_o i_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o darkness_n lead_v i_o out_o of_o all_o doubt_n and_o error_n and_o illuminate_v all_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n but_o that_o you_o mistake_v i_o not_o i_o do_v not_o deny_v when_o we_o have_v receive_v this_o faith_n but_o that_o we_o have_v our_o far_a grow_v in_o christ_n and_o increase_v in_o godliness_n by_o hear_v and_o read_v the_o word_n by_o meditation_n by_o prayer_n by_o receive_v our_o daily_a bread_n and_o drink_n of_o life_n in_o the_o sacrament_n by_o walk_v by_o motion_n by_o exercise_n and_o labour_v in_o our_o most_o holy_a faith_n the_o thing_n i_o intend_v be_v to_o show_v that_o all_o these_o spring_n from_o this_o fountain_n and_o move_v from_o the_o power_n of_o this_o life_n for_o our_o bodily_a life_n can_v consist_v or_o continue_v without_o daily_a food_n therefore_o it_o be_v natural_a to_o life_n to_o hunger_n for_o it_o daily_o and_o by_o food_n we_o receive_v strength_n and_o in_o our_o strength_n we_o travail_v and_o labour_n and_o do_v the_o thing_n which_o belong_v to_o this_o life_n this_o then_o be_v my_o purpose_n to_o show_v that_o all_o heavenly_a gift_n and_o power_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o faith_n so_o the_o apostle_n 2._o by_o faith_n we_o have_v a_o entrance_n into_o this_o grace_n wherein_o we_o stand_v but_o first_o we_o live_v by_o faith_n the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o 17._o faith_n by_o faith_n we_o feed_v therefore_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v most_o proper_o call_v the_o word_n 68_o of_o eternal_a life_n which_o be_v 8._o the_o word_n of_o faith_n which_o we_o preach_v and_o this_o word_n must_v be_v mix_v with_o faith_n and_o be_v as_o

christ_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n which_o be_v the_o bread_n of_o 56._o life_n by_o faith_n we_o be_v nourish_v as_o say_v paul_n of_o 6._o timotheus_n which_o have_v be_v nourish_v up_o in_o the_o

thou_o stand_v by_o faith_n by_o faith_n we_o walk_v for_o we_o 7._o walk_v by_o faith_n and_o not_o by_o sight_n by_o faith_n we_o work_v as_o saint_n paul_n say_v 11._o the_o work_n of_o your_o

of_o our_o faith_n in_o all_o earthly_a thing_n knowledge_n make_v faith_n for_o all_o the_o wise_a man_n of_o this_o world_n believe_v no_o far_a than_o they_o be_v lead_v by_o reason_n but_o of_o heavenly_a thing_n faith_n make_v the_o knowledge_n for_o these_o be_v above_o reason_n and_o captive_a our_o understanding_n therefore_o saint_n paul_n 3._o by_o faith_n we_o understand_v etc._n etc._n and_o saint_n peter_n i_o believe_v and_o know_v that_o thou_o be_v christ_n the_o son_n 69._o of_o the_o live_a god._n therefore_o our_o faith_n have_v her_o perfection_n in_o this_o life_n and_o knowledge_n do_v surrender_v to_o faith_n here_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v faith_n shall_v surrender_v to_o knowledge_n and_o faith_n shall_v be_v no_o more_o we_o believe_v not_o here_o
