shall_v be_v save_v and_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o adam_n faith_n to_o believe_v if_o he_o obey_v perfect_o he_o shall_v be_v save_v now_o it_o be_v accidental_a to_o this_o that_o man_n be_v sinner_n and_o need_v pardon_n and_o so_o must_v believe_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v pardon_v and_o yet_o with_o these_o man_n pardon_n be_v nothing_o but_o nolle_fw-la punire_fw-la that_o god_n will_v not_o condemn_v fo●_n sin_n and_o thus_o when_o we_o believe_v god_n will_v save_v we_o if_o we_o obey_v sincere_o we_o do_v consequent_o and_o implicit_o believe_v he_o will_v not_o condemn_v we_o i_o e._n will_v pardon_v we_o all_o our_o sin_n but_o thi●_n be_v implicit_a and_o indirect_a therefore_o the_o belief_n of_o pardon_n can_v be_v a_o reason_n why_o gospel_n obedience_n shall_v

in_o their_o sin_n or_o senselesness_n after_o it_o they_o must_v perish_v for_o ever_o but_o we_o do_v not_o find_v in_o scripture_n any_o word_n of_o this_o we_o read_v of_o the_o fall_n of_o some_o as_o noah_n lot_n samson_n and_o read_v nothing_o of_o their_o recovery_n and_o yet_o no_o question_n make_v of_o their_o salvation_n we_o read_v also_o of_o david_n and_o peter_n repentance_n and_o

he_o will_v not_o take_v his_o spirit_n utter_o from_o they_o psal_n 51.11_o 12._o all_o their_o complaint_n and_o prayer_n argue_v want_v of_o present_a fence_n of_o god_n favour_n and_o the_o quickning_n of_o his_o spirit_n not_o that_o they_o be_v utter_o out_o of_o favour_n or_o a_o reconcile_a state_n it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v not_o safe_a for_o young_a or_o unexperienced_a christian_n when_o guilty_a of_o foul_a sin_n or_o great_a decay_n of_o zeal_n to_o retain_v mueh_a confidence_n of_o their_o good_a state_n but_o rather_o to_o remember_v from_o whence_o they_o be_v fall_v and_o to_o repent_v and_o do_v their_o first_o work_n because_o they_o may_v be_v easy_o mistake_v about_o the_o truth_n of_o grace_n when_o there_o have_v be_v but_o little_a proof_n of_o it_o but_o well-rooted_n and_o experience_a christian_n upon_o their_o miscarriage_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o question_v their_o justification_n but_o to_o humble_v themselves_o great_o for_o abuse_v the_o grace_n and_o kindness_n of_o god_n and_o submit_v to_o his_o fatherly_a correction_n and_o shall_v they_o doubt_v as_o some_o do_v yet_o be_v not_o that_o the_o best_a and_o most_o proper_a motive_n to_o

the_o want_n of_o god_n presence_n and_o other_o effect_n of_o his_o fatherly_a displeasure_n be_v more_o suitable_a and_o more_o effectual_a to_o grow_v christian_n nor_o do_v the_o scripture_n
