i_o go_v unto_o my_o father_n but_o this_o be_v a_o notion_n so_o general_o understand_v that_o i_o need_v not_o insist_v upon_o it_o now_o if_o the_o prayer_n of_o faith_n be_v make_v for_o the_o recovery_n of_o the_o sick_a man_n it_o stand_v to_o reason_n that_o his_o be_v anoint_v with_o oil_n shall_v refer_v to_o the_o same_o matter_n for_o the_o apostle_n lay_v down_o this_o motive_n to_o the_o use_n of_o prayer_n and_o unction_n that_o the_o prayer_n of_o faith_n shall_v save_v the_o sick_a and_o thus_o these_o passage_n go_v easy_o and_o consonant_o together_o whereas_o if_o the_o extreme_a unction_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v suppose_v in_o this_o place_n the_o whole_a must_v run_v after_o this_o manner_n be_v any_o man_n sick_a let_v he_o send_v for_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o church_n and_o let_v they_o administer_v to_o he_o the_o sacrament_n and_o office_n of_o extreme_a unction_n to_o prepare_v his_o soul_n for_o its_o departure_n out_o of_o this_o life_n for_o if_o they_o know_v by_o the_o spirit_n that_o the_o gift_n of_o healing_n be_v now_o to_o be_v exercise_v and_o do_v thereupon_o pray_v for_o his_o recovery_n he_o shall_v not_o depart_v out_o of_o this_o life_n but_o the_o lord_n will_v raise_v he_o up_o and_o who_o do_v not_o see_v that_o at_o this_o rate_n the_o passage_n of_o the_o text_n be_v not_o only_o incoherent_a but_o inconsistent_a with_o one_o another_o and_o now_o it_o be_v easy_a from_o hence_o to_o answer_v one_o of_o bellarmin_n principal_a objection_n against_o our_o sense_n of_o this_o place_n etc._n place_n bellar._n de_fw-fr extr._n unct._n c._n iii._o §._o quarto_o &_o oran_n etc._n etc._n this_o promise_n say_v he_o the_o prayer_n of_o faith_n shall_v save_v the_o sick_a etc._n etc._n be_v absolute_a and_o therefore_o its_o principal_a relation_n can_v be_v to_o the_o health_n of_o the_o body_n for_o the_o sick_a who_o be_v anoint_v as_o st._n james_n prescribe_v be_v either_o always_o heal_v or_o not_o always_o if_o always_o then_o none_o have_v die_v in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o apostle_n but_o some_o very_o few_o who_o neglect_v st._n james_n his_o rule_n moreover_o bodily_a health_n be_v not_o always_o profitable_a to_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o always_o obtain_v from_o god_n though_o it_o be_v pray_v for_o by_o one_o that_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o healing_n they_o therefore_o that_o be_v anoint_v be_v not_o always_o heal_v so_o that_o either_o that_o absolute_a promise_n of_o st._n james_n be_v false_a which_o can_v be_v or_o which_o be_v most_o true_a it_o be_v principal_o and_o absolute_o to_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o soul_n we_o be_v agree_v then_o that_o the_o promise_n upon_o unction_n and_o the_o prayer_n of_o faith_n be_v absolute_a but_o the_o cardinal_n will_v not_o have_v bodily_a health_n to_o be_v the_o thing_n promise_v for_o than_o none_o have_v die_v but_o those_o few_o that_o neglect_v to_o procure_v unction_n now_o one_o will_v think_v that_o this_o objection_n be_v every_o whit_n as_o strong_a against_o make_v the_o promise_a effect_n of_o unction_n to_o be_v the_o health_n of_o the_o soul_n for_o thus_o it_o will_v be_v impossible_a for_o any_o to_o be_v damn_a but_o those_o few_o that_o neglect_v to_o be_v anoint_v which_o be_v very_o comfortable_a doctrine_n indeed_o to_o some_o people_n but_o so_o false_a withal_o that_o i_o believe_v our_o adversary_n themselves_o will_v be_v ashamed_a to_o defend_v it_o open_o but_o there_o be_v no_o such_o inconvenience_n belong_v to_o our_o interpretation_n of_o this_o place_n as_o the_o cardinal_n pretend_v i_o grant_v that_o all_o they_o be_v heal_v who_o be_v anoint_v as_o st._n james_n prescribe_v but_o that_o very_o few_o must_v therefore_o have_v dye_v in_o those_o day_n do_v by_o no_o mean_n follow_v unless_o that_o be_v suppose_v also_o which_o can_v never_o be_v prove_v viz._n that_o the_o presbyter_n without_o make_v any_o difference_n be_v to_o anoint_v all_o the_o sick_a in_o those_o day_n but_o that_o they_o do_v not_o anoint_v all_o seem_v very_o evident_a from_o this_o that_o the_o unction_n be_v to_o go_v along_o with_o the_o prayer_n of_o faith_n but_o the_o prayer_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o offer_v for_o all_o and_o therefore_o neither_o be_v all_o anoint_v for_o i_o have_v already_o show_v that_o by_o the_o prayer_n of_o faith_n in_o that_o place_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v ask_v a_o miracle_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n by_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o such_o prayer_n be_v not_o offer_v for_o all_o indifferent_o but_o for_o those_o only_o who_o it_o please_v god_n so_o to_o restore_v to_o their_o health_n the_o cardinal_n say_v most_o true_o that_o bodily_a health_n be_v not_o always_o profitable_a to_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o always_o obtain_v from_o god_n but_o it_o be_v rash_o do_v to_o add_v though_o it_o be_v pray_v for_o by_o one_o that_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o healing_n for_o those_o that_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o healing_n be_v under_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o divine_a spirit_n when_o to_o show_v the_o miraculous_a gift_n of_o god_n and_o when_o to_o forbear_v they_o know_v by_o that_o supernatural_a direction_n when_o it_o be_v for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o good_a of_o the_o church_n or_o the_o spiritual_a advantage_n of_o the_o sick_a person_n that_o he_o shall_v recover_v and_o then_o follow_v the_o prayer_n accompany_v with_o a_o assurance_n of_o the_o event_n here_o call_v the_o prayer_n of_o faith_n together_o with_o unction_n the_o usual_a rite_n of_o miraculous_a heal_n we_o have_v already_o remember_v how_o our_o lord_n promise_v to_o his_o disciple_n that_o whatever_o they_o shall_v ask_v in_o his_o name_n he_o will_v do_v it_o and_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v think_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v able_a at_o their_o own_o pleasure_n to_o do_v miracle_n either_o for_o the_o gratify_n of_o a_o wanton_a curiosity_n or_o when_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n do_v not_o require_v it_o but_o that_o they_o will_v still_o be_v under_o the_o impulse_n and_o guidance_n of_o the_o spirit_n when_o to_o undertake_v a_o miraculous_a operation_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n thus_o before_o some_o notable_a miracle_n it_o be_v say_v of_o they_o that_o they_o be_v full_a of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n i._n e._n they_o be_v raise_v by_o a_o strong_a suggestion_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o the_o assure_a expectation_n of_o those_o great_a thing_n that_o be_v present_o do_v there_o be_v not_o only_o a_o divine_a power_n that_o wrought_v those_o thing_n but_o there_o be_v also_o a_o divine_a impulse_n upon_o the_o mind_n of_o christ_n servant_n warrant_v they_o to_o undertake_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v do_v and_o therefore_o such_o wonderful_a thing_n be_v not_o do_v upon_o every_o occasion_n when_o perhaps_o the_o wisdom_n of_o man_n will_v have_v call_v for_o they_o but_o only_o when_o it_o seem_v good_a to_o the_o unerring_a wisdom_n of_o god_n miracle_n flourish_v in_o the_o church_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n but_o yet_o even_o then_o they_o be_v under_o the_o restraint_n of_o the_o divine_a pleasure_n st._n peter_n be_v once_o deliver_v out_o of_o prison_n by_o a_o miracle_n but_o st._n paul_n more_o than_o once_o use_v his_o prudence_n to_o gain_v his_o liberty_n and_o to_o save_v himself_o in_o particular_a the_o gift_n of_o heal_v flourish_v in_o the_o church_n in_o those_o day_n and_o yet_o st._n paul_n advise_v timothy_n to_o drink_v a_o 23._o a_o 1_o tim._n v._o

that_o the_o prayer_n of_o faith_n always_o prevail_v that_o when_o the_o presbyter_n anoint_v the_o sick_a with_o oil_n and_o ask_v his_o health_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v assure_v of_o the_o event_n that_o the_o sick_a person_n at_o that_o time_n be_v heal_v and_o that_o the_o lord_n raise_v he_o up_o but_o that_o they_o ask_v not_o this_o in_o behalf_n of_o the_o sick_a
