these_o word_n it_o be_v first_o to_o believe_v to_o acknowledge_v and_o to_o profess_v the_o same_o not_o to_o deny_v the_o power_n of_o they_o in_o their_o life_n and_o conversation_n no_o not_o

that_o have_v very_o smooth_a forehead_n and_o carry_v a_o goodly_a profession_n of_o religion_n yet_o notwithstanding_o their_o hand_n be_v full_a of_o iniquity_n job_n be_v as_o well_o in_o life_n

labour_v to_o eschew_v evil_a so_o that_o he_o deny_v not_o the_o power_n of_o that_o he_o profess_v he_o perform_v the_o power_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o life_n and_o conversation_n and_o that_o not_o only_o in_o prosperity_n but_o in_o his_o extremity_n in_o sickness_n and_o misery_n it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n not_o to_o deny_v the_o word_n of_o god_n so_o long_o as_o the_o lord_n

the_o tempest_n so_o this_o be_v the_o only_a pillow_n whereon_o a_o man_n must_v rest_v when_o his_o conscience_n tell_v he_o he_o be_v upright_o though_o through_o infirmity_n yet_o he_o have_v do_v his_o poor_a endeavour_n to_o keep_v the_o word_n of_o the_o holy_a one_o &_o indeed_o without_o this_o clear_a conscience_n let_v never_o any_o man_n presume_v of_o faith_n for_o it_o be_v but_o a_o counterfeit_a faith_n the_o word_n of_o the_o holy_a one_o being_n first_o sow_v as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o heart_n that_o seed_n knit_v unto_o the_o root_n of_o faith_n that_o root_n bring_v out_o a_o tree_n of_o charity_n that_o tree_n bear_v the_o fruit_n of_o good_a work_n so_o as_o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o we_o be_v ourselves_o justify_v before_o god_n only_o by_o faith_n but_o our_o faith_n be_v justify_v to_o our_o own_o conscience_n by_o charity_n and_o our_o charity_n must_v be_v justify_v before_o the_o world_n by_o our_o fruit_n of_o charity_n and_o by_o our_o godly_a life_n and_o conversation_n i'faith_o it_o be_v a_o illumination_n it_o be_v hard_o to_o distinguish_v between_o the_o illumination_n of_o the_o true_a spirit_n and_o the_o illusion_n of_o the_o false_a therefore_o it_o have_v please_v almighty_a god_n with_o that_o heavenly_a faith_n to_o join_v another_o virtue_n of_o charity_n that_o a_o man_n own_o conscience_n may_v testify_v whether_o his_o faith_n be_v counterfeit_a or_o no_o and_o because_o the_o world_n can_v see_v into_o the_o heart_n therefore_o that_o charity_n must_v be_v justify_v by_o work_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n join_v all_o these_o together_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o the_o resolution_n of_o that_o holy_a man_n job_n wherefore_o he_o do_v desire_n to_o be_v out_o of_o this_o world_n you_o have_v hear_v
