they_o to_o their_o right_a object_n and_o bring_v they_o by_o degree_n to_o this_o measure_n that_o they_o be_v spend_v upon_o christ_n without_o measure_n three_o our_o faith_n do_v show_v itself_o in_o our_o will_n when_o the_o soul_n have_v many_o time_n a_o bless_a experience_n of_o god_n love_n be_v persuade_v of_o it_o thus_o paul_n faith_n show_v itself_o when_o he_o say_v i_o be_o

christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n which_o persuasion_n as_o i_o take_v it_o do_v more_o natural_o belong_v unto_o the_o will_n it_o be_v more_o proper_a to_o the_o understanding_n to_o be_v convict_v and_o to_o the_o will_v to_o be_v persuade_v so_o that_o though_o the_o soul_n be_v many_o time_n toss_v with_o temptation_n fear_n and_o terror_n yet_o more_o or_o less_o it_o be_v much_o refresh_v with_o this_o persuasion_n thus_o we_o see_v how_o faith_n quicken_v the_o whole_a soul_n of_o the_o godly_a man_n in_o which_o respect_n if_o we_o be_v quicken_v from_o the_o death_n of_o our_o understanding_n and_o not_o of_o our_o desire_n if_o we_o perceive_v the_o inliving_a of_o our_o desire_n and_o not_o of_o our_o will_n and_o affection_n we_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o suspect_v that_o we_o have_v no_o faith_n for_o faith_n be_v in_o no_o part_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o any_o measure_n where_o it_o be_v not_o in_o all_o part_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o some_o measure_n for_o in_o this_o do_v the_o life_n of_o the_o soul_n differ_v from_o the_o life_n of_o the_o body_n that_o the_o life_n of_o the_o body_n do_v begin_v in_o the_o heart_n it_o be_v that_o which_o first_o live_v and_o do_v end_n there_o it_o be_v that_o which_o last_o die_v but_o the_o life_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o can_v never_o perish_v though_o it_o may_v seem_v not_o to_o work_v for_o some_o time_n like_o a_o member_n deaden_v with_o a_o blow_n as_o it_o be_v in_o our_o first_o regeneration_n like_o light_n in_o the_o air_n shed_v abroad_o through_o the_o whole_a soul_n so_o it_o be_v always_o to_o be_v find_v in_o all_o the_o power_n of_o the_o soul_n though_o in_o some_o man_n it_o be_v more_o predominant_a in_o the_o understanding_n in_o some_o in_o the_o desire_n and_o in_o some_o other_o in_o the_o will_n and_o affection_n now_o therefore_o let_v we_o from_o henceforth_o enter_v into_o our_o own_o soul_n to_o try_v whether_o we_o have_v faith_n yea_o or_o no._n if_o we_o have_v it_o be_v our_o life_n and_o if_o it_o be_v our_o life_n it_o quicken_v both_o our_o understanding_n to_o know_v christ_n our_o judgement_n to_o approve_v he_o as_o our_o only_a saviour_n and_o redeemer_n our_o memory_n to_o treasure_n up_o the_o promise_n our_o desire_n to_o have_v a_o unquenchable_a thirst_n after_o he_o our_o affection_n to_o be_v spend_v upon_o he_o our_o will_n in_o some_o measure_n to_o be_v persuade_v of_o his_o love_n to_o we_o and_o our_o whole_a soul_n to_o droop_v and_o mourn_v in_o our_o christian_a joy_n because_o we_o can_v receive_v he_o more_o full_o

which_o i_o shall_v observe_v from_o hence_o that_o be_v the_o exercise_n and_o expressement_n of_o that_o power_n which_o faith_n give_v we_o by_o our_o communion_n with_o christ_n in_o a_o

from_o the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o christ_n that_o we_o be_v quicken_v to_o all_o holy_a obedience_n though_o we_o have_v faith_n yet_o we_o must_v not_o pride_n ourselves_o in_o it_o for_o it_o
