of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n worthy_a consideration_n on_o this_o manner_n there_o be_v a_o threefold_a certainty_n the_o first_o be_v certainty_n of_o reason_n or_o of_o general_a faith_n when_o a_o man_n by_o force_n of_o argument_n be_v convict_v of_o the_o certainty_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o bible_n this_o may_v be_v in_o the_o wicked_a and_o ungodly_a without_o faith_n in_o christ._n after_o this_o in_o the_o elect_a by_o a_o more_o special_a work_n of_o god_n spirit_n follow_v a_o faith_n in_o christ_n and_o the_o certainty_n of_o justify_v or_o special_a faith_n express_v in_o the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o former_a syllogism_n three_o after_o this_o certainty_n of_o special_a faith_n follow_v a_o other_o experimental_a certainty_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o bible_n which_o also_o faith_n conclude_v on_o this_o manner_n that_o doctrine_n which_o assure_v we_o to_o be_v god_n child_n be_v certain_o of_o god_n but_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n believe_v or_o mingle_v with_o our_o faith_n assure_v we_o to_o be_v god_n child_n therefore_o it_o be_v of_o god_n the_o major_n be_v grant_v of_o all_o the_o minor_a be_v in_o effect_n the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o former_a syllogism_n and_o it_o be_v know_v by_o a_o experience_n of_o that_o spiritual_a comfort_n which_o the_o godly_a feel_v in_o their_o heart_n the_o conclusion_n set_v down_o the_o certainty_n of_o the_o bible_n upon_o a_o further_a ground_n than_o any_o wit_n or_o learning_n of_o man_n can_v attain_v unto_o without_o the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n namely_o upon_o a_o inward_a assurance_n of_o our_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n of_o this_o certainty_n our_o saviour_n christ_n speak_v notable_o if_o any_o man_n will_v do_v my_o father_n will_n 7.17_o that_o be_v believe_v it_o and_o subject_n himself_o to_o it_o he_o shall_v know_v namely_o by_o that_o comfort_n which_o he_o shall_v feel_v upon_o his_o subjection_n of_o the_o doctrine_n whether_o

first_o of_o all_o humble_a themselves_o and_o endeavour_n in_o their_o heart_n true_o to_o believe_v in_o christ._n because_o hence_o flow_v the_o best_a experience_n of_o the_o certainty_n and_o consequent_o of_o the_o unspeakable_a excellency_n of_o the_o bible_n thus_o than_o we_o see_v how_o we_o be_v to_o receive_v hold_v and_o enjoy_v our_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n in_o christ_n by_o no_o other_o thing_n within_o we_o but_o by_o mean_n of_o our_o faith_n alone_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v have_v special_a care_n that_o we_o may_v by_o the_o use_n of_o god_n mean_v attain_v to_o a_o lively_a faith_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n we_o must_v do_v two_o thing_n first_o we_o be_v to_o labour_v to_o be_v convict_v in_o conscience_n of_o the_o certainty_n of_o the_o word_n this_o do_v we_o must_v they_o subject_v our_o will_n to_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n that_o bid_v we_o believe_v in_o christ_n we_o must_v bewail_v our_o unbelief_n we_o must_v strive_v against_o the_o same_o and_o pray_v unto_o god_n to_o confirm_v and_o increase_v our_o faith_n by_o establish_v our_o heart_n in_o his_o love_n the_o second_o part_n of_o spiritual_a life_n be_v peace_n of_o
