the_o live_a god_n reas_n 3._o such_o person_n as_o be_v justify_v have_v faith_n now_o faith_n be_v a_o part_n of_o sanctification_n nay_o further_o where_o this_o grace_n of_o faith_n be_v there_o

justification_n have_v no_o degree_n why_o yet_o sanctification_n have_v and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o apostle_n john_n 1_o john_n 2.12_o etc._n etc._n tell_v we_o of_o little_a child_n young_a man_n and_o father_n intimate_v thereby_o the_o several_a degree_n of_o grace_n that_o they_o have_v who_o be_v sanctify_v hence_o mention_n be_v also_o make_v of_o babe_n in_o christ_n as_o in_o

to_o a_o great_a and_o they_o that_o attain_v to_o the_o most_o grace_n in_o this_o life_n be_v but_o babe_n in_o grace_n in_o comparison_n of_o the_o great_a measure_n of_o grace_n they_o shall_v have_v in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v as_o 1_o john_n 5.21_o little_a child_n keep_v yourselves_o from_o idol_n the_o exhortation_n be_v general_a to_o all_o the_o regenerate_v upon_o earth_n they_o that_o before_o he_o call_v young_a man_n and_o father_n here_o he_o call_v little_a child_n to_o wit_n comparative_o compare_v the_o measure_n of_o grace_n they_o have_v in_o this_o world_n with_o that_o measure_n they_o shall_v have_v in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v and_o so_o we_o understand_v the_o apostle_n paul_n to_o compare_v his_o little_a measure_n of_o grace_n in_o this_o world_n with_o the_o great_a measure_n he_o shall_v have_v in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v 1_o cor._n 13.11_o when_o i_o be_v a_o child_n i_o speak_v as_o a_o child_n i_o understand_v as_o a_o child_n i_o

4._o what_o be_v the_o part_n of_o sanctification_n ans_fw-fr sanctification_n have_v two_o part_n 1_o mortification_n 2._o vivification_n mortification_n be_v that_o part_n of_o sanctification_n whereby_o the_o power_n tyranny_n and_o strength_n of_o original_a sin_n be_v weaken_v and_o decay_a and_o by_o little_a and_o little_o abolish_v the_o ground_n of_o this_o be_v the_o virtue_n of_o christ_n death_n apply_v the_o same_o power_n weaken_v sin_n in_o we_o which_o sustain_v he_o upon_o the_o cross_n as_o rom._n 6.6_o know_v this_o that_o our_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v with_o he_o that_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v destroy_v that_o henceforth_o we_o shall_v not_o serve_v sin_n vivification_n the_o second_o part_n of_o sanctification_n be_v that_o whereby_o the_o special_a image_n of_o god_n or_o inherent_a righteousness_n be_v restore_v and_o the_o foundation_n of_o this_o be_v the_o virtue_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n the_o same_o power_n raise_v we_o up_o to_o newness_n of_o life_n which_o raise_v he_o from_o the_o dead_a as_o pilip_n 3.10_o that_o i_o may_v know_v he_o to_o wit_n christ_n and_o the_o power_n of_o his_o resurrection_n yet_o this_o we_o must_v remember_v that_o both_o the_o part_n of_o sanctification_n be_v imperfect_a in_o this_o life_n the_o godly_a whilst_o they_o be_v in_o this_o world_n consist_v partly_o of_o flesh_n and_o
