christ_n himself_o in_o come_v into_o the_o world_n not_o to_o condemn_v we_o but_o to_o save_v we_o be_v lose_v then_o must_v we_o with_o a_o true_a faith_n accept_v this_o mercy_n the_o same_o may_v

the_o father_n have_v thus_o anoint_v his_o son_n in_o our_o nature_n and_o therefore_o call_v he_o christ_n and_o fill_v he_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n without_o measure_n that_o he_o may_v

our_o salvation_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n they_o who_o hear_v these_o be_v not_o draw_v hereby_o to_o believe_v in_o christ_n for_o their_o salvation_n do_v either_o deny_v the_o truth_n of_o

and_o these_o brief_o for_o those_o two_o name_n jesus_n christ_n proper_o belong_v to_o our_o saviour_n which_o do_v summary_o contain_v all_o and_o so_o to_o a_o wise_a regarder_n hereof_o may_v

that_o we_o may_v better_o make_v our_o use_n of_o they_o be_v this_o that_o god_n do_v proclaim_v in_o the_o gospel_n his_o son_n christ_n and_o all_o his_o benefit_n general_o to_o all_o all_o general_n promise_v offer_v to_o all_o and_o every_o soul_n to_o who_o the_o gospel_n come_v so_o that_o every_o one_o who_o hear_v the_o gospel_n aught_o to_o believe_v which_o if_o he_o do_v not_o which_o none_o can_v without_o special_a grace_n yet_o this_o be_v his_o sin_n and_o shall_v be_v his_o condemnation_n for_o wilful_a refuse_v mercy_n offer_v and_o therefore_o every_o one_o that_o will_v not_o perish_v must_v believe_v that_o there_o be_v such_o mercy_n in_o god_n as_o he_o offer_v and_o that_o god_n be_v able_a willing_a and_o faithful_a to_o perform_v his_o promise_n that_o so_o believe_v he_o may_v enjoy_v the_o benefit_n of_o which_o otherwise_o he_o deprive_v himself_o this_o therefore_o i_o do_v before_o hand_n make_v know_v that_o see_v many_o worthy_a promise_n be_v thus_o general_o propound_v and_o set_v out_o that_o we_o may_v by_o believe_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o christ_n therefore_o none_o do_v shut_v out_o themselves_o and_o so_o bring_v upon_o themselves_o more_o just_a damnation_n as_o john_n 3._o 18._o be_v plain_o express_v he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v condemn_v already_o ver_fw-la 19_o this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n that_o light_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n etc._n etc._n there_o be_v also_o many_o special_a promise_n make_v to_o special_a person_n perform_v such_o duty_n as_o to_o faith_n and_o trust_n in_o god_n to_o confession_n of_o sin_n to_o prayer_n and_o so_o to_o all_o obedience_n for_o god_n require_v no_o duty_n but_o there_o be_v a_o reward_n belong_v thereto_o though_o not_o always_o express_v which_o reward_n though_o it_o may_v move_v the_o heart_n to_o desire_v it_o yet_o it_o can_v beget_v faith_n but_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o promiser_n must_v draw_v we_o to_o believe_v and_o our_o belief_n of_o have_v the_o reward_n which_o we_o desire_v will_v move_v to_o obedience_n and_o therefore_o every_o one_o who_o hear_v such_o reward_n promise_v must_v be_v thereby_o move_v to_o believe_v second_o to_o obey_v as_o be_v before_o say_v these_o well_o consider_v will_v better_o guide_v the_o weak_a sort_n to_o apply_v and_o make_v the_o right_a use_n of_o all_o the_o promise_n in_o the_o scripture_n which_o may_v any_o way_n concern_v they_o now_o then_o because_o these_o promise_n be_v exceed_v many_o we_o must_v needs_o bring_v they_o to_o some_o order_n and_o that_o as_o plain_a and_o short_a as_o may_v be_v lest_o the_o weak_a memory_n be_v overladen_a and_o so_o their_o understanding_n confound_v by_o many_o division_n as_o be_v too_o oft_o see_v i_o can_v think_v of_o any_o more_o easy_a way_n to_o teach_v the_o full_a use_n of_o our_o faith_n in_o every_o part_n of_o our_o life_n then_o to_o lay_v open_a the_o most_o principal_a matter_n in_o which_o we_o be_v

these_o six_o special_a occasion_n of_o doubt_v wherein_o we_o have_v most_o need_n to_o be_v relieve_v by_o faith_n 1._o first_o and_o above_o all_o head_n 6._o choice_n head_n we_o be_v most_o

in_o faith_n so_o as_o god_n will_v accept_v they_o 4._o four_o how_o to_o endure_v and_o profit_v by_o all_o affliction_n and_o persecution_n 5._o five_o how_o to_o be_v provide_v for_o of_o all_o

second_o for_o this_o bodily_a life_n in_o both_o which_o be_v we_o so_o strengthen_v in_o faith_n as_o to_o rest_v upon_o god_n for_o all_o sufficient_a relief_n i_o well_o see_v not_o what_o may_v be_v much_o want_v to_o make_v we_o rejoice_v always_o in_o the_o lord_n and_o sure_o i_o be_o no_o other_o state_n in_o this_o life_n herewith_o be_v to_o be_v compare_v let_v we_o therefore_o come_v to_o particular_n and_o see_v how_o in_o all_o of_o these_o we_o may_v gather_v out_o of_o god_n word_n strength_n of_o faith_n and_o so_o comfort_v to_o our_o soul_n for_o the_o better_a finish_v of_o our_o warfare_n in_o this_o life_n and_o more_o full_a assurance_n of_o our_o final_a victory_n and_o glory_n hereafter_o in_o and_o through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n and_o now_o to_o begin_v with_o that_o salvation_n first_o point_n wherein_o we_o live_v by_o faith_n be_v for_o assurance_n of_o our_o salvation_n which_o as_o it_o be_v first_o in_o order_n so_o be_v it_o in_o degree_n above_o all_o to_o be_v most_o seek_v for_o see_v upon_o it_o all_o the_o rest_n do_v depend_v and_o yet_o we_o be_v usual_o in_o nothing_o more_o want_v namely_o to_o be_v sure_a of_o our_o salvation_n by_o

special_o in_o time_n of_o tentation_n i_o hope_v it_o will_v be_v find_v no_o lose_a labour_n to_o gather_v some_o store_n of_o these_o promise_n and_o to_o show_v the_o right_a use_n of_o they_o to_o come_v then_o to_o the_o practice_n of_o this_o first_o point_n how_o we_o may_v daily_o come_v to_o more_o certainty_n that_o we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n and_o so_o his_o adopt_a child_n
