posture_n and_o thus_o the_o jew_n which_o have_v be_v dead_a in_o sin_n and_o in_o trespass_n this_o sixteen_o hundred_o year_n this_o spirit_n of_o christ_n will_v inlve_v their_o dead_a spirit_n

which_o as_o yet_o have_v not_o the_o gift_n of_o faith_n be_v to_o be_v careful_a that_o they_o be_v faithful_a in_o that_o little_a they_o have_v receive_v but_o especial_o not_o to_o resist_v this_o spirit_n strive_v with_o their_o spirit_n as_o we_o see_v do_v cain_n the_o old_a world_n noah_n posterity_n at_o babel_n as_o do_v shem_n in_o terah_n and_o israel_n god_n elect_v the_o

and_o effect_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o invisible_a member_n of_o christ_n true_a faith_n and_o love_n and_o other_o grace_n then_o hence_o observe_v that_o although_o in_o attain_v eternal_a life_n they_o can_v do_v nothing_o but_o in_o that_o christ_n alone_o do_v all_o and_o also_o that_o in_o the_o gift_n of_o internal_a light_n of_o christ_n and_o in_o the_o gift_n of_o faith_n and_o

that_o by_o the_o same_o spirit_n of_o faith_n and_o love_n they_o be_v enable_v to_o keep_v their_o heart_n with_o care_n and_o diligence_n so_o that_o no_o man_n or_o power_n shall_v take_v away_o their_o crown_n of_o comfort_n and_o hope_v of_o glory_n first_o because_o in_o the_o say_a gift_n they_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n of_o love_n of_o power_n and_o of_o a_o sound_a mind_n in_o

to_o adam_n in_o his_o innocency_n before_o the_o fall_n in_o pursuance_n of_o god_n say_v final_a end_n for_o proof_n of_o this_o point_n the_o oracle_n
be_v to_o choose_v and_o refuse_v all_o object_n as_o it_o like_v or_o as_o it_o like_v they_o not_o and_o so_o from_o this_o understanding_n and_o will_n man_n from_o his_o own_o council_n and_o

god_n make_v these_o twofold_a faculty_n a_o four_o mean_n to_o his_o say_a final_a end_n again_o god_n implant_v in_o man_n internal_a knowable_a power_n in_o his_o first_o estate_n the_o law_n of_o

3.8_o mar._n 5.9_o 1_o john_n 3.8_o than_o they_o lay_v their_o platform_n how_o to_o confound_v and_o frustrate_v god_n final_a end_n in_o reference_n to_o his_o glory_n in_o one_o particular_a
