and_o precious_a soul_n who_o have_v clear_o and_o whole_o give_v up_o themselves_o to_o christ_n to_o be_v save_v by_o he_o his_o own_o way_n and_o who_o at_o their_o first_o conversion_n as_o also_o at_o time_n of_o desertion_n have_v make_v a_o entire_a and_o immediate_a close_n with_o christ_n alone_o for_o their_o justification_n who_o yet_o in_o the_o ordinary_a course_n and_o way_n of_o their_o spirit_n have_v be_v too_o much_o carry_v away_o with_o the_o rudiment_n of_o christ_n in_o their_o own_o heart_n and_o not_o after_o christ_n himself_o the_o stream_n of_o their_o more_o constant_a thought_n and_o deep_a intention_n run_v in_o the_o channel_n of_o reflect_v upon_o and_o search_v into_o the_o gracious_a disposition_n of_o their_o own_o heart_n so_o to_o bring_v down_o or_o to_o raise_v up_o as_o the_o apostle_n word_n be_v rom._n 10._o 8._o and_o so_o get_v a_o sight_n of_o christ_n by_o they_o whereas_o christ_n himself_o be_v nigh_o they_o as_o the_o apostle_n there_o speak_v if_o they_o will_v but_o naked_o look_v upon_o himself_o through_o thought_n of_o pure_a and_o single_a faith_n and_o although_o the_o use_n of_o our_o own_o grace_n by_o way_n of_o

be_v not_o too_o inordinate_a and_o immoderate_a in_o pore_v too_o long_o or_o too_o much_o on_o they_o to_o fetch_v their_o comfort_n from_o they_o unto_o a_o neglect_n of_o christ_n yet_o as_o pleasure_n that_o be_v lawful_a be_v unlawful_o use_v when_o our_o thought_n and_o intention_n be_v too_o long_o or_o too_o frequent_a or_o too_o vehement_a in_o they_o so_o as_o to_o dead_a the_o heart_n either_o to_o the_o present_a delight_v in_o god_n or_o pursue_v after_o he_o with_o the_o joint_a strength_n of_o our_o soul_n as_o our_o only_a chief_a good_n so_o a_o immoderate_a recourse_n unto_o sign_n though_o bare_o consider_v as_o such_o be_v as_o unwarrantable_a when_o thereby_o we_o be_v divert_v and_o take_v off_o from_o a_o more_o constant_a actual_a exercise_n of_o daily_a thought_n of_o faith_n towards_o christ_n immediate_o as_o he_o be_v set_v forth_o to_o be_v our_o righteousness_n either_o by_o the_o way_n of_o assurance_n which_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o

as_o the_o psalmist_n say_v of_o god_n christ_n be_v scarce_o in_o all_o their_o thought_n but_o let_v these_o consider_v what_o a_o dishonour_n this_o must_v needs_o be_v unto_o christ_n that_o his_o

likewise_o what_o a_o shame_n also_o it_o be_v for_o believer_n themselves_o who_o be_v his_o spouse_n to_o look_v upon_o their_o husband_n no_o otherwise_o but_o by_o reflection_n and_o at_o second_o hand_n through_o the_o intervention_n and_o assistance_n of_o their_o own_o grace_n as_o mediator_n between_o he_o and_o they_o now_o to_o rectify_v this_o error_n the_o way_n be_v not_o whole_o to_o

down_o into_o our_o own_o heart_n and_o take_v a_o view_n of_o our_o grace_n let_v we_o be_v sure_a first_o to_o look_v whole_o out_o of_o ourselves_o unto_o christ_n as_o our_o justification_n and_o to_o close_v with_o he_o immediate_o and_o this_o as_o if_o we_o have_v no_o present_a or_o by_o past_a grace_n to_o evidence_n our_o be_v in_o he_o and_o if_o than_o whilst_o faith_n be_v thus_o immediate_o clasp_v about_o christ_n as_o sit_v upon_o his_o throne_n of_o grace_n we_o find_v either_o present_a or_o forepast_a grace_n come_v in_o as_o handmaid_n to_o attend_v and_o witness_v to_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o adherence_n unto_o christ_n as_o after_o such_o single_a and_o absolute_a act_n of_o faith_n it_o oftentimes_o fall_v out_o the_o holy_a ghost_n without_o who_o light_n they_o shine_v not_o bear_v witness_n with_o our_o spirit_n that_o be_v our_o grace_n as_o well_o as_o to_o our_o spirit_n and_o then_o again_o for_o the_o issue_n of_o they_o if_o in_o the_o
