believe_v be_v that_o in_o our_o power_n be_v it_o not_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n be_v it_o not_o above_o the_o reach_n of_o humane_a reason_n and_o understanding_n be_v it_o a_o work_n of_o nature_n or_o grace_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v answer_v and_o acknowledge_v that_o faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n ephes_n 2.8_o but_o take_v this_o with_o it_o this_o god_n be_v a_o god_n of_o free_a grace_n which_o give_v salvation_n to_o his_o people_n and_o the_o hand_n of_o faith_n to_o lay_v hold_n on_o his_o salvation_n all_o in_o his_o own_o grace_n and_o therefore_o i_o tell_v my_o own_o soul_n and_o other_o of_o believe_v in_o god_n because_o he_o be_v a_o god_n of_o free_a grace_n i_o know_v faith_n be_v the_o work_n of_o divine_a power_n it_o be_v not_o of_o ourselves_o therefore_o i_o say_v again_o god_n be_v a_o god_n of_o free_a grace_n stay_v not_o in_o self_n lie_v at_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n as_o that_o poor_a man_n in_o the_o gospel_n lord_n i_o believe_v help_v thou_o my_o unbelief_n methinks_a he_o speak_v thus_o lord_n i_o believe_v that_o thou_o can_v help_v i_o against_o my_o unbelief_n that_o thou_o can_v destroy_v the_o unbelief_n that_o be_v in_o i_o and_o make_v i_o to_o believe_v upon_o thou_o to_o establishment_n and_o i_o think_v this_o be_v the_o language_n of_o the_o objection_n which_o say_v faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n be_v it_o not_o the_o same_o with_o this_o lord_n thou_o can_v make_v i_o believe_v in_o thou_o it_o be_v thy_o work_n to_o destroy_v my_o unbelief_n and_o to_o help_v my_o soul_n against_o it_o this_o be_v all_o i_o say_v god_n be_v a_o god_n of_o free_a grace_n and_o faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o his_o grace_n he_o wait_v to_o be_v gracious_a to_o give_v his_o free_a grace_n and_o all_o the_o gift_n of_o it_o free_o to_o those_o that_o need_v it_o nothing_o in_o creature_n but_o want_n make_v it_o a_o object_n for_o god_n grace_n for_o he_o give_v all_o free_o without_o price_n and_o without_o money_n now_o if_o faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n as_o thou_o do_v acknowledge_v then_o lie_v at_o the_o throne_n of_o his_o grace_n if_o thou_o want_v know_v all_o he_o have_v be_v for_o those_o that_o want_v wait_v on_o he_o and_o tell_v he_o he_o can_v help_v thou_o against_o thy_o unbelief_n but_o you_o demand_v whether_o faith_n be_v not_o above_o the_o reach_n of_o humane_a reason_n and_o understanding_n i_o acknowledge_v yes_o when_o it_o be_v under_o its_o natural_a darkness_n so_o that_o the_o soul_n it_o live_v in_o nothing_o but_o nature_n as_o it_o fall_v from_o the_o first_o adam_n so_o the_o natural_a man_n descerne_v not_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n neither_o can_v be_v because_o they_o be_v spiritual_o discern_v but_o when_o god_n come_v to_o work_v the_o work_n of_o his_o grace_n in_o any_o soul_n he_o do_v not_o destroy_v his_o own_o first_o and_o pure_a work_n of_o nature_n in_o the_o man_n the_o fall_n from_o grace_n corrupt_v the_o reason_n and_o understanding_n of_o man_n as_o it_o do_v the_o whole_a man_n so_o the_o restoration_n to_o grace_n do_v restore_v the_o first_o image_n of_o god_n in_o the_o reason_n and_o understanding_n of_o man_n though_o faith_n as_o it_o lead_v to_o god_n and_o pitch_v the_o soul_n upon_o god_n be_v above_o the_o light_n or_o reach_v of_o reason_n in_o itself_o yet_o when_o god_n work_v faith_n in_o the_o soul_n and_o so_o take_v the_o soul_n up_o to_o himself_o to_o live_v in_o he_o and_o to_o rest_v on_o he_o god_n do_v not_o thereby_o destroy_v reason_n and_o understanding_n in_o the_o man_n that_o be_v to_o make_v he_o a_o beast_n no_o god_n do_v inlighten_v and_o convince_v the_o soul_n in_o its_o reason_n and_o judgement_n though_o when_o it_o be_v in_o its_o corrupt_a nature_n it_o can_v not_o discern_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n nor_o understand_v the_o work_n of_o his_o salvation_n of_o free_a grace_n in_o christ_n through_o believe_v so_o as_o to_o choose_v god_n for_o a_o portion_n and_o to_o rest_v on_o the_o salvation_n of_o his_o free_a grace_n yet_o when_o god_n shall_v inlighten_v the_o reason_n and_o judgement_n of_o a_o man_n by_o his_o own_o spirit_n so_o that_o now_o it_o be_v spiritual_a reason_n and_o judgement_n then_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o it_o it_o come_v to_o apprehend_v and_o to_o close_v with_o the_o salvation_n of_o god_n free_a grace_n in_o christ_n through_o believe_v it_o be_v now_o reason_n and_o judgement_n sanctify_v and_o make_v light_n in_o the_o lord_n so_o that_o now_o it_o see_v a_o beauty_n in_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n the_o gift_n of_o his_o grace_n now_o it_o be_v no_o more_o its_o own_o under_o its_o corruption_n but_o god_n in_o his_o renew_v grace_n by_o which_o in_o christ_n he_o have_v redeem_v it_o out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n and_o the_o region_n of_o darkness_n into_o his_o own_o marvellous_a light_n though_o ●t_a first_fw-mi it_o may_v only_o fee_v man_n walk_v as_o tree_n yet_o god_n will_v not_o leave_v it_o till_o he_o make_v it_o see_v plain_o god_n be_v light_n and_o in_o he_o be_v no_o darkness_n at_o all_o so_o that_o as_o god_n come_v into_o the_o reason_n and_o judgement_n of_o his_o people_n they_o have_v light_n in_o the_o lord_n the_o work_n be_v nevertheless_o but_o the_o more_o a_o work_n of_o grace_n in_o god_n that_o he_o do_v thus_o sanctify_v and_o inlighten_v the_o reason_n and_o judgement_n of_o his_o people_n carry_v on_o the_o work_n of_o his_o salvation_n in_o the_o soul_n god_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o work_v thus_o for_o the_o whole_a work_n of_o his_o salvation_n be_v free_a but_o that_o he_o choose_v to_o work_v thus_o i_o think_v be_v the_o experience_n of_o all_o saint_n that_o ever_o have_v reason_n and_o judgement_n in_o which_o saint_n have_v much_o joy_n and_o by_o which_o doubtless_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n free_a grace_n be_v much_o manifest_v and_o declare_v and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v in_o the_o next_o place_n hold_v forth_o some_o ground_n and_o reason_n to_o the_o sanctify_a reason_n and_o judgement_n of_o saint_n why_o to_o believe_v in_o god_n why_o to_o take_v his_o word_n and_o to_o rest_v upon_o the_o salvation_n of_o his_o free_a grace_n ground_n for_o faith_n from_o reason_n first_o because_o there_o be_v truth_n in_o none_o but_o god_n and_o his_o word_n by_o god_n here_o i_o mean_v father_n son_n and_o spirit_n all_o truth_n be_v in_o this_o fountain_n and_o what_o ever_o truth_n be_v in_o the_o creature_n it_o be_v a_o stream_n from_o this_o fountain_n so_o much_o of_o truth_n so_o much_o a_o beama_n of_o god_n in_o any_o soul_n it_o be_v one_o of_o god_n attribute_n which_o we_o have_v mention_v to_o be_v a_o god_n of_o truth_n which_o be_v the_o true_a god_n i_o shall_v add_v little_a to_o the_o proof_n of_o it_o only_o a_o scripture_n or_o two_o psal_n 18.30_o as_o for_o god_n 18.30_o psalm_n 18.30_o his_o way_n be_v perfect_a the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v try_v be_v be_v a_o buckler_n to_o all_o those_o that_o trust_v in_o he_o as_o if_o the_o prophet_n have_v say_v i_o have_v try_v god_n by_o trust_v he_o and_o i_o find_v he_o true_a and_o perfect_a in_o all_o his_o word_n and_o way_n his_o word_n be_v perfect_o true_a if_o her_o say_v he_o will_v be_v a_o buckler_n to_o you_o you_o may_v trust_v he_o he_o be_v a_o try_a god_n of_o truth_n he_o never_o deceive_v any_o foul_a that_o trust_v in_o he_o his_o truth_n reach_v to_o the_o cloud_n 57.10_o psalm_n 57.10_o say_v the_o prophet_n psalm_n 57.10_o it_o be_v boundless_a truth_n it_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n who_o be_v all_o truth_n so_o psalm_n 117.2_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o lord_n endure_v for_o ever_o that_o be_v god_n be_v for_o ever_o a_o god_n of_o truth_n he_o be_v

god_n of_o truth_n now_o i_o will_v argue_v with_o reason_n and_o ask_v it_o whether_o it_o will_v choose_v truth_n or_o untruth_n to_o believe_v in_o doubtless_o this_o will_v be_v the_o answer_n of_o a_o rational_a man_n i_o do_v choose_v truth_n for_o this_o it_o my_o misery_n i_o know_v not_o what_o to_o believe_v there_o be_v so_o much_o untruth_n be_v the_o world_n nor_o can_v i_o find_v any_o man_n or_o sort_n of_o man_n to_o trust_v all_o man_n be_v so_o false_a if_o man_n word_n promise_n or_o engagement_n be_v any_o safety_n we_o have_v have_v enough_o of_o they_o but_o man_n
