be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n get_v to_o themselves_o hereby_o such_o sorrow_n and_o anguish_n as_o none_o be_v able_a to_o comprehend_v but_o those_o that_o have_v themselves_o feel_v and_o try_v they_o to_o help_v then_o to_o the_o consolation_n of_o the_o soul_n so_o dangerous_o and_o so_o mighty_o afflict_v first_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o this_o disease_n come_v to_o many_o of_o this_o that_o they_o pretend_v to_o resolve_v themselves_o of_o their_o salvation_n examine_v themselves_o whether_o they_o be_v worthy_a to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n or_o no._n and_o as_o there_o be_v none_o that_o be_v or_o can_v be_v worthy_a so_o this_o be_v at_o the_o last_o to_o turn_v doubt_n into_o despair_n other_o discourse_n whether_o they_o be_v of_o the_o number_n of_o the_o elect_a and_o whether_o their_o name_n be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n to_o wit_n if_o god_n love_v they_o and_o hold_v they_o for_o his_o child_n but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o high_a that_o we_o must_v mount_v but_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n it_o be_v where_o we_o shall_v search_v the_o revelation_n hereof_o and_o resolve_v ourselves_o if_o god_n have_v love_v we_o if_o he_o do_v love_v we_o and_o will_v hold_v we_o for_o his_o child_n in_o jesus_n christ_n for_o as_o a_o man_n if_o he_o be_v of_o credit_n make_v the_o hide_a thought_n of_o his_o heart_n to_o be_v know_v by_o speak_v even_o so_o god_n who_o be_v the_o truth_n itself_o reveal_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n his_o counsel_n and_o his_o will_n touch_v our_o adoption_n &_o salvation_n and_o confirm_v this_o revelation_n by_o the_o use_n of_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n but_o we_o must_v note_v that_o this_o revelation_n of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o the_o gospel_n comprehend_v first_o two_o point_n to_o wit_n that_o there_o be_v perfect_a &_o entire_a salvation_n in_o one_o only_a jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o the_o mean_a to_o obtain_v it_o be_v to_o believe_v in_o he_o moreover_o when_o this_o gospel_n be_v preach_v unto_o we_o god_n reveal_v unto_o we_o yet_o two_o point_n more_o first_o that_o he_o will_v make_v we_o partaker_n of_o this_o salvation_n in_o christ_n secondlie_o that_o he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o believe_v the_o testimony_n that_o he_o have_v give_v we_o of_o this_o his_o will_n to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v be_v save_v now_o the_o difficulty_n of_o believe_v lie_v in_o the_o persuasion_n of_o these_o two_o last_o point_n which_o notwithstanding_o be_v certain_a and_o true_a behold_v say_v s._n john_n 5.11_o 1._o joh._n 5.11_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o of_o everlasting_a life_n and_o this_o life_n be_v in_o his_o son_n he_o say_v not_o only_o that_o the_o life_n be_v in_o his_o son_n but_o say_v further_o that_o he_o give_v we_o this_o life_n &_o that_o the_o gospel_n be_v the_o witness_n and_o have_v protest_v a_o little_a before_o that_o he_o which_o believe_v not_o this_o testimony_n of_o god_n 5.10_o 1._o joh._n 5.10_o make_v he_o a_o liar_n he_o show_v sufficient_o that_o he_o will_v that_o we_o shall_v believe_v it_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o hebrews_n pass_v further_a &_o say_v that_o god_n 6.17_o heb._n 6.17_o willing_a to_o show_v the_o immutable_a stableness_n of_o his_o counsel_n to_o the_o heir_n of_o the_o promise_n interpose_v himself_o by_o a_o oath_n that_o by_o two_o thing_n immutable_a in_o which_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o god_n shall_v lie_v we_o may_v have_v firm_a consolation_n we_o i_o say_v who_o have_v our_o refuge_n to_o the_o hope_n that_o be_v set_v before_o we_o the_o which_o we_o hold_v as_o the_o anchor_n of_o the_o soul_n sure_a &_o stable_a pierce_v even_o into_o the_o sanctuary_n of_o heaven_n where_o jesus_n christ_n our_o forerunner_n be_v enter_v for_o us._n by_o this_o he_o teach_v we_o first_o that_o when_o we_o hear_v the_o gospel_n we_o ought_v to_o hold_v for_o certain_a that_o the_o counsel_n of_o god_n which_o be_v hide_v in_o his_o heart_n touch_v his_o will_n to_o save_v we_o and_o to_o take_v we_o for_o his_o child_n be_v there_o make_v manifest_a unto_o us._n second_o that_o he_o will_v that_o we_o believe_v it_o see_v he_o confirm_v it_o by_o two_o thing_n immutable_a in_o which_o he_o can_v lie_v to_o wit_n his_o word_n and_o his_o oath_n to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v have_v firm_a consolation_n which_o can_v be_v in_o we_o if_o we_o believe_v not_o moreover_o he_o call_v the_o revelation_n of_o his_o counsel_n the_o hope_v set_v before_o us._n speak_v then_o to_o we_o he_o will_v that_o we_o shall_v have_v hope_n yea_o and_o he_o will_v that_o this_o reveal_n of_o his_o counsel_n shall_v be_v unto_o we_o a_o sure_a anchor_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o show_v that_o as_o a_o ship_n be_v hold_v fast_o by_o the_o anchor_n that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v carry_v away_o of_o the_o wind_n so_o god_n will_v that_o this_o reveal_n of_o his_o counsel_n by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v hold_v we_o fast_o &_o assure_v we_o against_o all_o doubt_n of_o our_o adoption_n yea_o and_o to_o pierce_v even_o into_o the_o very_a heaven_n with_o assurance_n whereof_o our_o forerunner_n jesus_n christ_n have_v take_v possession_n both_o for_o himself_o and_o for_o us._n see_v then_o one_o place_n show_v very_o express_o that_o when_o thou_o hear_v the_o gospel_n god_n declare_v and_o reveal_v unto_o thou_o that_o it_o be_v his_o will_n to_o save_v thou_o by_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o this_o end_n he_o will_v further_o that_o thou_o believe_v it_o and_o indeed_o when_o s._n paul_n say_v 10.17_o ro._n 10.17_o that_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v the_o gospel_n he_o show_v that_o thou_o can_v not_o believe_v except_o that_o thou_o hear_v now_o faith_n be_v a_o knowledge_n and_o certainty_n that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o save_v thou_o &_o to_o take_v thou_o for_o his_o well-beloved_a child_n in_o jesus_n christ_n then_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v preach_v unto_o thou_o and_o which_o thou_o hear_v contain_v the_o reveal_n and_o testimony_n first_o that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o save_v thou_o by_o christ_n secondlie_o that_o thou_o shall_v believe_v this_o testimony_n which_o he_o give_v thou_o that_o thou_o may_v have_v everlasting_a life_n who_o now_o be_v he_o that_o ought_v or_o can_v doubt_v see_v also_o he_o be_v not_o content_a to_o say_v in_o general_a 3.36_o joh._n 3.36_o he_o that_o believe_v have_v everlasting_a life_n but_o he_o command_v thou_o to_o believe_v
