i_o do_v be_v according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n yet_o i_o may_v not_o please_v god_n in_o what_o i_o do_v except_o there_o be_v another_o faith_n which_o be_v this_o namely_o a_o actual_a exercise_n of_o the_o principle_n and_o habit_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o duty_n that_o we_o perform_v all_o our_o duty_n must_v be_v do_v with_o a_o act_n of_o faith_n it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a that_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v a_o believer_n and_o do_v go_v about_o this_o thing_n and_o that_o thing_n and_o run_v away_o with_o this_o notion_n that_o he_o please_v god_n in_o what_o he_o do_v but_o it_o be_v require_v that_o he_o must_v actual_o exercise_v faith_n in_o what_o he_o do_v as_o for_o example_n for_o prayer_n a_o man_n or_o woman_n that_o be_v a_o believer_n go_v to_o prayer_n and_o he_o be_v persuade_v in_o his_o conscience_n that_o what_o he_o pray_v for_o be_v according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n but_o this_o be_v not_o enough_o but_o if_o his_o prayer_n please_v god_n he_o must_v put_v forth_o a_o fresh_a act_n of_o faith_n in_o his_o prayer_n what_o he_o ask_v for_o he_o must_v ask_v in_o faith_n whatsoever_o you_o shall_v ask_v in_o prayer_n believe_v say_v christ_n you_o shall_v receive_v though_o a_o man_n be_v a_o believer_n yet_o he_o must_v believe_v still_o and_o in_o jam._n 1.5_o 6._o if_o any_o man_n lack_v wisdom_n let_v he_o ask_v it_o of_o god_n etc._n etc._n but_o let_v he_o ask_v it_o in_o faith_n though_o he_o be_v a_o believer_n yet_o let_v he_o ask_v in_o faith_n for_o if_o he_o ask_v without_o act_v his_o faith_n it_o be_v nothing_o it_o be_v not_o please_v to_o god_n he_o must_v act_v faith_n in_o his_o prayer_n and_o so_o for_o hear_v the_o word_n a_o believer_n come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o what_o he_o hear_v he_o be_v persuade_v it_o be_v according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n well_o but_o be_v this_o enough_o no_o he_o must_v act_v faith_n in_o hear_v the_o word_n or_o else_o it_o will_v be_v unprofitable_a to_o he_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o hebrew_n 4.2_o the_o word_n preach_v do_v not_o profit_v they_o not_o be_v mix_v with_o faith_n in_o they_o that_o hear_v it_o there_o must_v be_v a_o act_n of_o faith_n in_o hear_v the_o word_n we_o must_v mix_v faith_n in_o hear_v the_o word_n we_o must_v act_v faith_n in_o all_o our_o duty_n &_o performance_n so_o far_o as_o we_o be_v want_v in_o act_v &_o exercise_v of_o faith_n in_o what_o we_o do_v the_o lord_n help_v we_o to_o mind_v these_o thing_n so_o far_o forth_o our_o service_n be_v defective_a in_o please_v of_o god_n and_o so_o i_o may_v instance_n in_o other_o thing_n as_o in_o give_v of_o alm_n and_o other_o thing_n and_o so_o if_o you_o observe_v it_o abel_n be_v not_o only_o a_o believer_n and_o have_v the_o faith_n also_o of_o persuasion_n that_o what_o he_o do_v offer_n be_v according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n ay_o but_o abel_n go_v further_o also_o when_o he_o please_v god_n in_o his_o sacrifice_n in_o all_o his_o sacrifice_n that_o he_o offer_v up_o he_o do_v act_v faith_n and_o so_o by_o his_o act_n of_o faith_n be_v a_o believer_n his_o offering_n and_o sacrifice_n be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n and_o enoch_n our_o present_a example_n before_o we_o he_o be_v a_o believer_n and_o be_v persuade_v that_o what_o he_o do_v be_v according_a to_o to_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n but_o he_o walk_v with_o god_n that_o be_v he_o do_v act_v faith_n in_o all_o his_o service_n that_o he_o do_v in_o the_o step_n of_o his_o walk_n he_o please_v god_n in_o his_o walk_n which_o must_v be_v by_o faith_n by_o act_v of_o faith_n in_o his_o duty_n and_o service_n and_o walk_v with_o god_n by_o that_o mean_v he_o come_v to_o please_v god_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o brethren_n that_o i_o have_v a_o principle_n of_o faith_n in_o i_o that_o i_o do_v believe_v in_o christ_n and_o that_o what_o i_o do_v i_o be_o persuade_v be_v according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n this_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o please_v god_n in_o the_o duty_n and_o service_n that_o i_o perform_v but_o i_o must_v exercise_v faith_n in_o the_o duty_n and_o service_n that_o god_n require_v of_o i_o say_v the_o apostle_n paul_n in_o gal._n 7.2_o 20._o i_o be_o crucify_v with_o christ_n how_o do_v he_o know_v that_o say_v he_o christ_n live_v in_o i_o there_o be_v a_o principle_n of_o life_n and_o say_v he_o the_o life_n that_o i_o live_v in_o the_o flesh_n i_o live_v by_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n paul_n have_v not_o only_a christ_n in_o he_o as_o a_o principle_n of_o life_n but_o paul_n do_v also_o act_v from_o that_o principle_n of_o life_n the_o life_n that_o i_o now_o live_v in_o the_o flesh_n i_o live_v by_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o for_o example_n a_o natural_a man_n that_o have_v a_o soul_n in_o his_o body_n have_v a_o principle_n of_o natural_a life_n but_o this_o be_v not_o enough_o but_o now_o to_o every_o natural_a action_n of_o life_n that_o he_o put_v forth_o there_o must_v be_v a_o influence_n from_o that_o principle_n of_o life_n or_o else_o he_o can_v act_v so_o though_o christ_n be_v a_o principle_n of_o spiritual_a life_n in_o we_o yet_o notwithstanding_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n must_v act_v spiritual_o he_o must_v derive_v strength_n and_o virtue_n and_o influence_n from_o christ_n to_o every_o duty_n and_o service_n that_o he_o perform_v to_o make_v it_o acceptable_a to_o god_n it_o be_v not_o else_o a_o spiritual_a action_n this_o be_v now_o the_o faith_n that_o be_v require_v in_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n in_o the_o world_n that_o will_v please_v god_n and_o without_o this_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n i_o pray_v mind_n it_o though_o i_o can_v come_v to_o the_o application_n now_o yet_o remember_v it_o and_o observe_v it_o possible_o you_o may_v think_v yourselves_o what_o may_v be_v reduce_v from_o it_o i_o say_v without_o this_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n but_o now_o with_o this_o faith_n though_o our_o performance_n and_o service_n be_v defective_a yet_o we_o come_v to_o please_v god_n in_o do_v of_o they_o quest_n you_o will_v say_v how_o shall_v we_o be_v sure_a of_o that_o that_o whatsoever_o i_o do_v be_v a_o believer_n and_o act_v faith_n in_o it_o how_o may_v i_o be_v sure_a that_o i_o please_v god_n in_o what_o i_o do_v possible_o here_o may_v be_v a_o great_a temptation_n that_o some_o may_v be_v exercise_v with_o whether_o may_v i_o venture_v upon_o it_o and_o be_v persuade_v in_o my_o soul_n that_o i_o please_v god_n in_o what_o i_o do_v act_v and_o exercise_v faith_n in_o it_o shall_v i_o speak_v brief_o to_o that_o which_o be_v the_o four_o thing_n propound_v namely_o answ_n four_o that_o by_o faith_n though_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n have_v many_o fail_n yet_o by_o faith_n they_o do_v please_v god_n though_o it_o be_v impossible_a without_o faith_n to_o please_v he_o how_o do_v this_o appear_v brief_o in_o three_o or_o four_o word_n 1._o from_o the_o example_n of_o all_o the_o believer_n that_o ever_o have_v be_v in_o the_o world_n all_o the_o faithful_a that_o have_v be_v in_o the_o world_n have_v please_v god_n by_o their_o faith_n there_o be_v never_o any_o one_o believer_n in_o the_o world_n that_o do_v act_v faith_n but_o do_v please_v god_n in_o it_o and_o if_o so_o than_o we_o may_v be_v confident_a of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v a_o sure_a and_o certain_a thing_n that_o by_o faith_n we_o come_v to_o please_v god_n look_v into_o the_o catalogue_n of_o believer_n the_o faithful_a in_o all_o age_n read_v over_o the_o 11_o of_o the_o hebrew_n at_o your_o leisure_n and_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o all_o of_o they_o do_v please_v god_n by_o their_o faith_n abel_n he_o please_v god_n by_o his_o faith_n enoch_n please_v god_n by_o faith_n and_o noah_n please_v god_n by_o faith_n these_o be_v before_o the_o flood_n afterward_o abraham_n by_o faith_n please_v god_n for_o he_o be_v the_o friend_n of_o god_n isaac_n and_o jacob_n be_v faithful_a and_o they_o please_v god_n they_o may_v have_v their_o fail_n and_o infirmity_n and_o weakness_n as_o noah_n have_v he_o be_v overtake_v with_o drink_v of_o wine_n and_o so_o the_o rest_n have_v their_o weakness_n but_o for_o all_o that_o they_o please_v god_n by_o their_o faith_n god_n overlook_v their_o infirmity_n and_o abraham_n though_o he_o be_v a_o faithful_a man_n yet_o he_o have_v sometime_o a_o tang_n of_o unbelief_n as_o when_o he_o go_v a_o great_a while_n without_o a_o son_n but_o yet_o god_n overlookt_v that_o and_o he_o be_v please_v with_o
and_o good_a work_n they_o be_v not_o faith_n and_o without_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n reckon_v what_o you_o can_v reckon_v and_o say_v what_o you_o can_v for_o yourselves_o yet_o consider_v be_v this_o faith_n or_o no_o if_o it_o be_v not_o faith_n it_o can_v please_v god_n possible_o you_o may_v desire_v and_o endeavour_v to_o walk_v in_o the_o strict_a way_n of_o profession_n and_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o close_a way_n suppose_v you_o do_v so_o you_o desire_v to_o walk_v in_o church-fellowship_n with_o the_o saint_n but_o this_o be_v not_o faith_n still_o and_o without_o faith_n be_v be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n i_o pray_v consider_v the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v paul_n before_o he_o be_v convert_v and_o be_v bring_v to_o believe_v on_o christ_n in_o act_n 16.5_o say_v he_o after_o the_o most_o straight_a sect_n of_o our_o religion_n i_o live_v a_o pharisee_n and_o say_v he_o in_o another_o place_n in_o phil._n 3.7_o 8_o 9_o as_o concern_v the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v in_o the_o law_n i_o be_v blameless_a say_v he_o at_o verse_n 6._o but_o now_o mark_v say_v he_o this_o be_v not_o faith_n though_o when_o he_o come_v to_o believe_v on_o christ_n now_o say_v he_o i_o look_v at_o all_o that_o ever_o i_o do_v as_o nothing_o and_o i_o count_v all_o but_o dung_n that_o i_o may_v win_v christ_n brethren_n whatever_o we_o do_v without_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a for_o we_o to_o please_v god_n but_o possible_o you_o will_v say_v to_o i_o i_o hope_v i_o do_v believe_v if_o you_o do_v it_o be_v well_o but_o i_o pray_v do_v you_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o believe_v ask_v this_o question_n to_o your_o own_o heart_n do_v you_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o believe_v it_o be_v not_o to_o believe_v that_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v speak_v in_o the_o gospel_n be_v true_a no_o no_o this_o faith_n whereby_o we_o come_v to_o please_v god_n be_v another_o manner_n of_o faith_n but_o suppose_v now_o that_o you_o do_v believe_v indeed_o and_o in_o truth_n i_o pray_v have_v you_o do_v all_o that_o ever_o you_o have_v do_v in_o a_o way_n of_o faith_n and_o believe_v true_o without_o faith_n you_o see_v it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n even_o you_o that_o be_v believer_n without_o act_v of_o faith_n in_o what_o you_o do_v you_o can_v please_v god_n quest_n but_o you_o will_v say_v to_o i_o then_o how_o shall_v a_o christian_a man_n or_o woman_n so_o perform_v duty_n in_o faith_n so_o as_o they_o may_v be_v please_v unto_o god_n as_o suppose_v now_o the_o duty_n of_o prayer_n how_o shall_v we_o perform_v the_o duty_n of_o prayer_n so_o as_o it_o may_v be_v please_v unto_o god_n or_o for_o hear_v the_o word_n how_o shall_v we_o so_o hear_v the_o word_n in_o faith_n that_o it_o may_v be_v please_v unto_o god_n and_o how_o shall_v we_o partake_v of_o the_o lords-table_n in_o faith_n so_o as_o to_o please_v god_n i_o can_v come_v to_o answer_v this_o now_o but_o possible_o if_o the_o lord_n please_v i_o may_v speak_v something_o to_o that_o at_o some_o other_o time_n all_o that_o i_o have_v to_o say_v for_o the_o present_a be_v this_o you_o see_v friend_n brethren_n and_o belove_a what_o cause_n we_o have_v all_o of_o we_o i_o speak_v not_o only_o to_o unbeliever_n but_o to_o those_o that_o be_v believer_n as_o for_o unbeliever_n what_o cause_n have_v they_o to_o go_v home_o and_o bewail_v and_o bemoan_v their_o condition_n before_o the_o lord_n look_v back_o upon_o all_o that_o you_o have_v do_v throughout_o your_o whole_a life_n and_o you_o may_v write_v this_o upon_o it_o all_o you_o have_v displease_v god_n you_o have_v make_v many_o prayer_n and_o confess_v many_o sin_n and_o give_v thanks_o to_o god_n often_o you_o have_v read_v and_o hear_v the_o

and_o all_o for_o loss_n he_o be_v the_o worse_o and_o not_o the_o better_a as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o woman_n that_o have_v the_o bloody_a issue_n she_o go_v to_o the_o physician_n and_o use_v

instead_o of_o please_a god_n by_o what_o he_o have_v do_v he_o have_v rather_o displease_v god_n for_o certain_o we_o be_v either_o the_o better_o or_o the_o worse_a for_o every_o ordinance_n that_o

far_a prayer_n if_o we_o be_v not_o the_o better_a we_o be_v the_o worse_o when_o our_o duty_n and_o service_n have_v not_o be_v do_v in_o faith_n they_o have_v not_o be_v please_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o when_o a_o man_n come_v to_o cast_v up_o his_o account_n he_o will_v find_v himself_o the_o worse_a for_o all_o the_o service_n that_o ever_o he_o perform_v because_o they_o have_v not_o be_v
