and_o ability_n in_o man_n inward_a only_a but_o not_o outward_a that_o be_v to_o say_v a_o perfect_a affection_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o god_n precure_v in_o man_n and_o not_o man_n in_o himself_o for_o although_o such_o motion_n seem_v to_o be_v motion_n of_o freewill_n yet_o they_o can_v be_v such_o except_o god_n vouchsafe_v of_o his_o work_a grace_n to_o sanctify_v the_o will_n and_o to_o make_v it_o capable_a of_o such_o good_a affection_n these_o two_o opinion_n recite_v by_o the_o master_n of_o the_o sentence_n in_o the_o second_o book_n and_o 27_o distinction_n i_o refer_v to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o reader_n and_o allow_v they_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o they_o both_o agree_v that_o virtue_n be_v a_o work_n of_o god_n in_o man_n and_o not_o of_o man_n in_o himself_o but_o yet_o they_o differ_v because_o the_o first_o say_v that_o virtue_n be_v not_o a_o move_n of_o the_o soul_n for_o that_o it_o be_v the_o only_a work_n of_o god_n without_o man_n and_o of_o mere_a grace_n the_o other_o opinion_n say_v that_o virtue_n be_v a_o good_a motion_n of_o man_n not_o come_v of_o god_n in_o man_n i_o dare_v not_o judge_v rash_o in_o so_o high_a and_o secret_a a_o mystery_n and_o therefore_o i_o appeal_v to_o the_o determination_n of_o the_o learned_a it_o suffice_v to_o know_v that_o virtue_n be_v a_o work_n of_o god_n in_o man_n and_o not_o of_o man_n in_o himself_o and_o in_o this_o point_n as_o both_o opinion_n do_v consent_n so_o i_o approve_v they_o to_o be_v true_a cap_n iii_o the_o description_n of_o faith_n and_o how_o we_o ought_v to_o believe_v in_o god_n for_o our_o salvation_n faith_n be_v a_o virtue_n whereby_o we_o believe_v that_o which_o we_o see_v not_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o faith_n be_v a_o virtue_n it_o be_v most_o manifest_a that_o faith_n be_v the_o pure_a gift_n of_o god_n whereby_o we_o believe_v that_o which_o we_o see_v not_o but_o yet_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o we_o shall_v believe_v all_o that_o we_o hear_v and_o see_v not_o but_o this_o be_v mean_v only_o in_o thing_n touch_v religion_n and_o the_o worship_v of_o god_n faith_n be_v proper_o of_o thing_n not_o apparent_a for_o apparent_a thing_n have_v no_o faith_n but_o a_o certain_a demonstration_n as_o when_o our_o lord_n say_v to_o thomas_n because_o thou_o have_v see_v thou_o believe_v yet_o thomas_n believe_v more_o than_o he_o see_v a_o man_n and_o he_o believe_v that_o the_o same_o man_n be_v god_n also_o which_o he_o see_v not_o for_o he_o say_v thou_o be_v my_o god_n and_o my_o lord_n in_o this_o consist_v the_o merit_n of_o faith_n when_o a_o man_n at_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n believe_v that_o thing_n which_o he_o see_v not_o to_o believe_v say_v saint_n austin_n be_v to_o think_v upon_o a_o thing_n with_o consent_n to_o that_o thought_n as_o when_o thou_o think_v the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v bear_v of_o a_o virgin_n and_o toah_n man_n nature_n upon_o he_o and_o consente_v to_o that_o thought_n it_o be_v proper_o call_v belief_n this_o thought_n may_v come_v often_o by_o see_v and_o often_o by_o hear_v and_o when_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n he_o understand_v that_o by_o hear_v faith_n come_v into_o the_o mind_n and_o thought_n if_o we_o consent_v thereunto_o for_o we_o may_v hear_v a_o preacher_n without_o consent_v to_o that_o he_o say_v because_o man_n do_v not_o always_o believe_v what_o the_o preacher_n speak_v for_o that_o the_o consent_n wherein_o consist_v the_o perfection_n of_o faith_n come_v of_o the_o mere_a gift_n of_o god_n and_o not_o from_o see_v nor_o hear_v but_o from_o the_o light_n of_o grace_n speak_v in_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o believer_n believe_v the_o principal_a truth_n which_o be_v god_n and_o work_v in_o he_o a_o agreement_n with_o that_o sovereign_a truth_n above_o all_o other_o thing_n so_o that_o faith_n be_v a_o foundation_n unmovable_a our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o only_a foundation_n of_o true_a blessedness_n dwell_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o believer_n and_o so_o long_o as_o faith_n be_v in_o man_n he_o shall_v be_v sure_a not_o to_o perish_v but_o faith_n without_o charity_n be_v no_o foundation_n because_o such_o faith_n be_v in_o vain_a and_o unprofitable_a i'faith_o then_o join_v with_o love_n or_o charity_n belong_v to_o good_a christian_n and_o faith_n without_o love_n belong_v to_o evil_a christian_n it_o be_v necessary_a therefore_o that_o we_o note_v the_o difference_n in_o these_o three_o saying_n or_o speech_n namely_o to_o believe_v a_o god_n to_o believe_v of_o god_n to_o believe_v in_o god_n to_o believe_v a_o god_n be_v to_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v the_o only_a true_a god_n so_o the_o devil_n do_v believe_v as_o well_o as_o the_o evil_a christian_n to_o believe_v of_o god_n be_v to_o believe_v that_o all_o be_v true_a which_o god_n say_v and_o so_o believe_v the_o evil_a christian_n as_o well_o as_o the_o good_a unless_o they_o be_v heretic_n but_o to_o believe_v in_o god_n be_v to_o love_n god_n and_o in_o believe_v to_o join_v thyself_o to_o god_n by_o love_n and_o obedience_n incorporate_n thou_o with_o his_o member_n that_o be_v to_o say_v his_o church_n this_o faith_n justi_v the_o sinner_n and_o this_o faith_n be_v knit_v with_o love_n and_o with_o charity_n begin_v to_o do_v good_a deed_n which_o can_v be_v do_v without_o love_n the_o faith_n which_o evil_a christian_n have_v be_v indeed_o a_o quality_n of_o free_a will_n but_o it_o be_v not_o knit_v with_o love_n and_o charity_n which_o be_v the_o bond_n of_o perfection_n and_o the_o life_n of_o faith_n as_o faith_n be_v the_o life_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o yet_o such_o a_o unshape_a faith_n be_v naked_a and_o void_a of_o charity_n may_v be_v term_v a_o gift_n of_o god_n for_o that_o the_o evil_a man_n may_v have_v some_o gift_n of_o god_n but_o that_o can_v proper_o be_v call_v virtue_n because_o that_o by_o virtue_n we_o learn_v to_o live_v right_o and_o for_o that_o the_o devil_n and_o evil_n christian_n do_v live_v wicked_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o the_o faith_n which_o they_o have_v be_v dead_a and_o therefore_o be_v not_o proper_o virtue_n nor_o yet_o a_o work_n of_o virtue_n if_o thou_o will_v then_o have_v thy_o faith_n to_o be_v good_a and_o save_a it_o must_v have_v four_o property_n that_o be_v to_o say_v it_o must_v be_v plain_a and_o simple_a it_o must_v be_v whole_a and_o sound_a it_o must_v be_v constant_a and_o unmovable_a it_o must_v be_v quick_a and_o lively_a touch_v the_o first_o that_o it_o must_v be_v plain_a and_o simple_a that_o teach_v thou_o thus_o much_o in_o effect_n that_o thou_o must_v believe_v the_o word_n of_o god_n simple_o and_o whatsoever_o be_v therein_o contain_v without_o inquire_v into_o god_n mystical_a matter_n by_o humane_a reason_n and_o simple_o believe_v in_o thy_o heart_n that_o every_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o holy_a bible_n be_v most_o true_a second_o thy_o faith_n must_v be_v whole_a and_o sound_a that_o be_v thou_o must_v not_o take_v part_n with_o heretic_n or_o cleave_v to_o the_o erroneous_a opinion_n of_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n truth_n for_o this_o be_v no_o good_a faith_n and_o therefore_o for_o a_o testimony_n of_o thy_o faith_n be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o make_v open_a confession_n in_o the_o congregation_n of_o thy_o belief_n with_o the_o fellowship_n and_o communion_n of_o saint_n that_o thou_o believe_v in_o god_n the_o creator_n and_o governor_n of_o all_o thing_n &_o in_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n the_o redeemer_n
