of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o a_o all_o sufficient_a most_o merciful_a and_o faithful_a advocate_n and_o saviour_n do_v go_v quite_o out_o of_o himself_o and_o accept_v lay_v hold_v rely_v and_o rest_n upon_o he_o and_o he_o alone_o for_o pardon_v and_o grace_n and_o everlasting_a happiness_n or_o more_o brief_o thus_o faith_n be_v a_o grace_n of_o god_n whereby_o the_o humble_a sinner_n do_v accept_v and_o rely_v upon_o christ_n alone_o for_o salvation_n as_o he_o be_v hold_v forth_o in_o the_o promise_v of_o the_o gospel_n if_o you_o will_v attain_v this_o grace_n of_o faith_n take_v these_o direction_n 1._o you_o must_v be_v full_o persuade_v that_o the_o scripture_n which_o reveal_v christ_n be_v indeed_o the_o word_n of_o god_n this_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o all_o faith_n therefore_o i_o shall_v brief_o suggest_v some_o argument_n to_o prove_v the_o divine_a authority_n of_o the_o scripture_n as_o 1._o because_o of_o that_o majesty_n purity_n holiness_n heavenliness_n which_o do_v appear_v in_o the_o scripture_n beyond_o all_o other_o writing_n 2._o because_o of_o the_o design_n and_o drift_n of_o the_o scripture_n to_o debase_v man_n and_o exalt_v god_n and_o his_o glory_n above_o all_o 3._o because_o of_o the_o admirable_a contexture_n and_o contrivance_n and_o sweet_a harmony_n of_o the_o scripture_n in_o all_o the_o part_n thereof_o though_o write_v by_o so_o many_o several_a man_n in_o several_a age_n and_o place_n which_o show_v that_o they_o be_v all_o act_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n of_o god_n 4._o because_o of_o the_o wonderful_a work_n of_o man_n redemption_n there_o set_v forth_o at_o first_o more_o dark_o afterward_o more_o clear_o which_o no_o mortal_a brain_n can_v have_v invent_v much_o less_o can_v any_o create_a power_n have_v effect_v 5._o because_o of_o the_o great_a power_n which_o this_o word_n have_v to_o convince_v convert_v and_o comfort_n 6._o because_o of_o the_o confirmation_n of_o the_o scripture_n by_o miracle_n 7._o because_o of_o the_o acknowledgement_n of_o the_o scripture_n to_o be_v god_n word_n in_o all_o age_n 8._o because_o of_o the_o many_o million_o of_o martyr_n who_o have_v seal_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o word_n with_o their_o blood_n 9_o because_o of_o the_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o and_o with_o the_o word_n which_o do_v bear_v testimony_n to_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n people_n that_o the_o scripture_n be_v his_o word_n and_o be_v indict_v by_o his_o spirit_n whence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v true_a because_o god_n the_o author_n of_o they_o be_v true_a and_o can_v lie_v and_o whatever_o be_v there_o reveal_v be_v as_o certain_a as_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v most_o demonstrable_a to_o sense_n or_o reason_n this_o be_v the_o first_o step_n to_o your_o believe_v in_o christ_n who_o be_v make_v know_v in_o the_o scripture_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v god_n word_n 2._o if_o you_o will_v attain_v a_o save_a faith_n in_o christ_n you_o must_v be_v convince_v and_o full_o persuade_v of_o your_o lose_a estate_n without_o christ_n and_o your_o absolute_a need_n of_o he_o of_o which_o before_o 3._o you_o must_v be_v persuade_v that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o your_o own_o power_n to_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v not_o of_o yourselves_o but_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n ephes_n 2._o 8._o and_o therefore_o must_v apply_v yourselves_o to_o god_n that_o he_o will_v not_o only_o give_v you_o his_o son_n but_o also_o give_v you_o the_o hand_n of_o faith_n to_o lay_v hold_n on_o he_o that_o he_o will_v work_v in_o you_o this_o grace_n of_o faith_n by_o his_o spirit_n 4._o you_o must_v consider_v those_o argument_n of_o scripture_n which_o encourage_v faith_n as_o for_o instance_n i_o shall_v mention_v four_o head_n of_o argument_n for_o
