A76707	The copy of the covenant of grace With a true discovery of several false pretenders to that eternal inheritance, and of the right heir thereunto. Together with such safe instructions as will inable him to clear his title, and to make it unquestionable. Exactly evidenced by many perspicuous and unconstrained testimonies of scripture. Penned, and published upon mature deliberation, and good advise. / By Robert Bidwel, a servant, and minister of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

david_n say_v the_o lord_n by_o his_o prophet_n isa_n 55._o 3._o and_o thus_o his_o only_a son_n very_o very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o he_o that_o hear_v my_o word_n and_o believe_v on_o he_o that_o

they_o be_v so_o unnecessary_a as_o you_o say_v it_o be_v good_a christian_n i_o pray_v mistake_v i_o not_o i_o do_v not_o say_v it_o be_v unnecessary_a but_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o so_o necessary_a or_o commodious_a for_o the_o get_n of_o faith_n as_o hear_v be_v the_o word_n which_o we_o read_v in_o the_o book_n be_v not_o so_o powerful_a so_o full_a of_o spirit_n and_o life_n as_o that_o which_o we_o hear_v from_o god_n by_o the_o mouth_n of_o his_o minister_n the_o word_n that_o i_o speak_v unto_o you_o they_o be_v spirit_n and_o they_o be_v life_n say_v our_o lord_n christ_n joh._n 6._o 63._o nevertheless_o i_o be_o so_o far_o from_o condemn_v read_v although_o it_o may_v be_v much_o abuse_v as_o the_o best_a thing_n too_o often_o be_v that_o i_o commend_v it_o for_o a_o beneficial_a and_o a_o bless_a excercise_n to_o all_o sort_n of_o people_n both_o unbeliever_n and_o believer_n for_o in_o relation_n to_o unbeliever_n first_o it_o prepare_v they_o for_o hear_v by_o acquaint_v they_o with_o the_o history_n and_o make_v they_o familiar_a with_o the_o body_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o you_o know_v that_o a_o man_n will_v more_o free_o and_o willing_o receive_v and_o entertain_v that_o which_o be_v familiar_a unto_o he_o then_o that_o which_o be_v strange_a or_o unknown_a unless_o he_o be_v of_o such_o a_o athenian_a or_o atheistical_a spirit_n as_o to_o

discretion_n and_o the_o more_o ready_o to_o find_v out_o the_o several_a place_n of_o scripture_n cite_v by_o the_o minister_n either_o at_o the_o present_a or_o at_o their_o better_a leisure_n the_o jew_n to_o who_o paul_n preach_v at_o berea_n be_v commend_v for_o the_o more_o noble_a in_o that_o they_o receive_v the_o word_n with_o readiness_n of_o mind_n and_o search_v the_o scripture_n daily_o whether_o those_o thing_n be_v so_o act_n 17._o 11._o therefore_o many_o of_o they_o believe_v vers_fw-la 12._o and_o as_o for_o the_o true_a believer_n who_o be_v neither_o wed_v to_o their_o own_o understanding_n nor_o captivate_v by_o their_o own_o corruption_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v with_o they_o and_o where_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v there_o be_v liberty_n 2_o cor._n 3._o 17._o to_o they_o i_o say_v reading_z be_v yet_o more_o profitable_a and_o proper_a for_o it_o serve_v to_o assist_v their_o memory_n to_o improve_v their_o meditation_n and_o likewise_o to_o strengthen_v and_o confirm_v their_o faith_n and_o questionless_a it_o be_v principal_o for_o these_o end_n and_o purpose_n that_o the_o apostle_n do_v write_v their_o epistle_n to_o be_v read_v in_o divers_a church_n or_o congregation_n which_o they_o dedicate_v to_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n such_o be_v be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n by_o faith_n whereunto_o they_o have_v be_v former_o convert_v by_o hear_v the_o gospel_n preach_v unto_o they_o either_o by_o the_o author_n of_o the_o same_o epistle_n or_o by_o some_o other_o of_o the_o apostle_n or_o evangelist_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v unto_o all_o man_n woman_n and_o child_n concern_v read_v and_o hear_v as_o paul_n some_o time_n say_v to_o the_o corinthian_n concern_v spiritual_a gift_n and_o prophesy_v 1_o cor._n 14._o 1._o desire_n read_v but_o rather_o that_o you_o may_v hear_v for_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v and_o hear_v come_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n preach_v how_o can_v they_o hear_v without_o a_o preacher_n say_v the_o same_o apostle_n rom._n 10._o 14._o now_o the_o reason_n why_o i_o have_v thus_o take_v upon_o i_o to_o answer_v this_o question_n concern_v read_v be_v this_o because_o many_o think_v to_o excuse_v themselves_o very_o well_o from_o attend_v upon_o god_n in_o his_o public_a ordinance_n by_o pretend_v that_o they_o do_v benefit_n themselves_o as_o much_o by_o read_v good_a book_n at_o home_n but_o true_o they_o do_v very_o mighty_o deceive_v themselves_o he_o that_o know_v god_n hear_v we_o he_o that_o be_v not_o of_o god_n hear_v not_o we_o hereby_o know_v we_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o error_n say_v that_o love_a and_o belove_a disciple_n john_n 4._o 6._o we_o be_v now_o come_v to_o answer_v the_o five_o and_o last_o question_n complete_o pertinent_a to_o the_o examination_n of_o this_o believer_n evidence_n which_o be_v this_o how_o shall_v a_o man_n know_v whether_o he_o have_v this_o save_a faith_n or_o not_o that_o we_o may_v possess_v ourselves_o of_o a_o right_a understanding_n in_o a_o matter_n of_o such_o consequence_n let_v we_o exact_o consider_v that_o place_n of_o the_o prophet_n jeremy_n where_o he_o compare_v or_o liken_v a_o faithful_a person_n to_o a_o goodly_a tree_n that_o be_v rich_o plant_v well_o root_v full_a of_o sap_n flourish_v fair_a and_o fruitful_a you_o shall_v find_v in_o the_o seventeen_o of_o the_o prophecy_n of_o jeremy_n at_o the_o seven_o and_o eight_o verse_n in_o these_o word_n bless_a be_v the_o man_n that_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n and_o who_o hope_n the_o lord_n be_v for_o he_o shall_v be_v as_o a_o tree_n plant_v by_o the_o water_n and_o that_o spread_v out_o her_o root_n by_o the_o river_n and_o shall_v not_o see_v when_o heat_n come_v but_o her_o leaf_n shall_v be_v green_a and_o shall_v not_o be_v careful_a in_o the_o year_n of_o drought_n neither_o shall_v cease_v from_o yield_a fruit_n first_o this_o tree_n be_v rich_o plant_v for_o she_o be_v plant_v by_o the_o water_n and_o job_n tell_v we_o that_o though_o a_o tree_n be_v cut_v down_o and_o that_o the_o root_n thereof_o wax_v old_a in_o the_o earth_n yet_o through_o the_o send_v of_o water_n it_o will_v bud_v and_o bring_v forth_o bough_n like_o a_o plant_n job_n 14._o 7_o 8_o 9_o second_o she_o be_v well_o root_v for_o she_o spread_v out_o her_o root_n by_o the_o river_n she_o spread_v out_o her_o root_n and_o that_o by_o the_o river_n not_o by_o filthy_a miry_z or_o muddy_a water_n but_o by_o the_o pure_a and_o pleasant_a stream_n when_o the_o lord_n have_v plant_v a_o garden_n in_o eden_n with_o every_o tree_n that_o be_v pleasant_a to_o the_o sight_n and_o good_a for_o food_n he_o provide_v a_o river_n to_o water_v the_o garden_n genes_n 2._o 10._o and_o it_o be_v the_o first_o commendation_n of_o the_o land_n of_o promise_n that_o it_o be_v a_o good_a land_n a_o land_n of_o brook_n of_o water_n of_o fountain_n and_o depth_n that_o spring_n out_o of_o valley_n and_o hill_n deut._n 8._o 7._o three_o she_o be_v full_a of_o sap_n the_o tree_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v full_a of_o sap_n say_v the_o psalmist_n psal_n 104._o 16._o and_o how_o can_v she_o be_v otherwise_o see_v she_o be_v so_o rich_o plant_v and_o so_o well_o root_v and_o therefore_o she_o shall_v not_o see_v or_o be_v sensible_a when_o the_o parch_a heat_n pass_v over_o she_o four_o this_o tree_n be_v flourish_v for_o her_o leaf_n shall_v be_v green_a her_o leaf_n shall_v not_o wither_v say_v the_o prophet_n david_n upon_o the_o like_a occasion_n psal_n 1._o 3._o five_o she_o be_v fresh_a and_o fair_a and_o so_o she_o shall_v continue_v for_o she_o shall_v not_o be_v careful_a in_o the_o year_n of_o drought_n she_o shall_v put_v forth_o beautiful_a bud_n and_o blossom_n never_o the_o less_o six_o and_o last_o she_o be_v fruitful_a very_o fruitful_a for_o she_o shall_v not_o cease_v from_o yield_a fruit_n but_o you_o will_v say_v what_o resemblance_n or_o likeness_n be_v there_o between_o this_o flourish_a tree_n and_o a_o true_a believer_n i_o answer_v let_v this_o be_v always_o consider_v that_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v speak_v
