their_o soul_n at_o peace_n with_o themselves_o because_o they_o have_v then_o be_v satisfy_v that_o god_n have_v be_v at_o peace_n with_o their_o soul_n now_o such_o comfort_n and_o small_a

by_o grow_v in_o grace_n and_o by_o improve_n in_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o goodness_n they_o shall_v fit_v themselves_o for_o a_o eternal_a happiness_n for_o by_o what_o have_v be_v say_v they_o may_v now_o begin_v to_o be_v satisfy_v that_o when_o their_o saviour_n require_v of_o they_o to_o love_v the_o lord_n their_o god_n with_o all_o their_o heart_n with_o all_o their_o soul_n with_o all_o their_o strength_n and_o with_o all_o their_o mind_n he_o do_v in_o effect_n require_v of_o they_o to_o love_v their_o own_o soul_n since_o it_o be_v by_o this_o time_n notorious_a that_o what_o in_o this_o case_n be_v their_o duty_n will_v prove_v not_o only_o their_o true_a way_n to_o happiness_n but_o that_o it_o will_v also_o put_v they_o into_o the_o actual_a possession_n of_o such_o happiness_n 2._o i_o will_v add_v in_o the_o second_o place_n that_o if_o we_o do_v not_o sincere_o love_v holiness_n and_o by_o consequence_n desire_v it_o we_o shall_v never_o attain_v to_o the_o perfection_n of_o it_o and_o if_o we_o fall_v short_a of_o a_o perfect_a holiness_n we_o shall_v by_o consequence_n fall_v short_a of_o eternal_a happiness_n for_o our_o saviour_n will_v not_o bestow_v a_o perfect_a holiness_n there_o where_o it_o be_v not_o desire_v and_o it_o can_v be_v desire_v there_o where_o it_o be_v not_o love_v we_o must_v therefore_o fit_v our_o self_n to_o be_v

if_o it_o be_v find_v true_a it_o may_v perhaps_o be_v find_v useful_a also_o for_o the_o resolve_v of_o more_o difficulty_n in_o religion_n than_o what_o it_o express_o pretend_v to_o but_o i_o be_v unwilling_a to_o adventure_v too_o far_o and_o therefore_o desire_v the_o reader_n to_o take_v it_o in_o good_a part_n such_o as_o it_o at_o present_a offer_v itself_o to_o he_o t._n s._n a_o short_a inquiry_n etc._n etc._n it_o have_v be_v our_o profess_a business_n in_o the_o forego_n discourse_n to_o make_v it_o out_o that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o name_n under_o heaven_n but_o that_o of_o jesus_n christ_n give_v to_o man_n whereby_o they_o must_v be_v save_v which_o because_o it_o be_v a_o truth_n only_o make_v know_v by_o revelation_n and_o because_o it_o be_v attend_v with_o some_o difficulty_n which_o our_o natural_a reason_n can_v easy_o surmount_v have_v therefore_o of_o late_a especial_o be_v slight_v to_o say_v no_o worse_o by_o some_o man_n who_o call_v themselves_o christian_n but_o who_o for_o all_o that_o will_v allow_v nothing_o to_o be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n but_o the_o belief_n of_o a_o god_n and_o that_o natural_a religion_n which_o be_v consequent_a to_o such_o belief_n and_o therefore_o who_o be_v desirous_a at_o least_o to_o lay_v aside_o all_o revelation_n whatsoever_o now_o though_o other_o who_o have_v look_v far_o into_o the_o matter_n can_v persuade_v themselves_o to_o renounce_v god_n revelation_n concern_v a_o saviour_n make_v to_o man_n in_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n which_o do_v indeed_o carry_v sufficient_a evidence_n in_o themselves_o of_o their_o divine_a authority_n the_o main_a drift_n and_o design_n of_o the_o first_o be_v to_o foretell_v and_o prefigure_v the_o come_v of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n the_o messiah_n with_o other_o thing_n relate_v to_o his_o birth_n life_n death_n resurrection_n etc._n etc._n and_o the_o main_a drift_n and_o design_n of_o the_o last_o be_v to_o exhibit_v to_o we_o the_o accomplishment_n of_o what_o have_v be_v so_o foretell_v and_o prefigure_v for_o the_o testimony_n of_o jesus_n be_v the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n yet_o even_o some_o of_o these_o man_n do_v so_o treat_v the_o acknowledge_v revelation_n as_o to_o employ_v their_o reason_n rather_o to_o expound_v away_o those_o difficulty_n than_o to_o resolve_v they_o by_o that_o mean_n reject_v the_o most_o express_a mean_v of_o a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o so_o cut_v those_o knot_n which_o they_o perhaps_o therefore_o only_o can_v because_o they_o will_v not_o try_v to_o untie_v now_o though_o we_o have_v attempt_v to_o resolve_v several_a such_o difficulty_n and_o some_o of_o they_o in_o such_o a_o way_n which_o we_o hope_v may_v persuade_v think_v man_n that_o provide_v they_o hold_v fast_o the_o foundation_n they_o be_v not_o always_o oblige_v to_o tread_v in_o beat_a path_n yet_o one_o grand_a difficulty_n still_o remain_v and_o that_o be_v that_o if_o man_n be_v to_o obtain_v salvation_n by_o jesus_n christ_n alone_o and_o if_o such_o a_o doctrine_n can_v only_o be_v know_v by_o revelation_n than_o it_o may_v seem_v strange_a at_o least_o that_o the_o revelation_n be_v not_o make_v know_v to_o all_o men._n and_o it_o may_v seem_v the_o more_o strange_a that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o because_o in_o those_o very_a revelation_n which_o we_o have_v of_o it_o we_o find_v express_o that_o the_o salvation_n design_v in_o christ_n jesus_n be_v intend_v for_o all_o man_n and_o it_o be_v natural_a to_o think_v that_o that_o which_o be_v design_v for_o the_o benefit_n of_o all_o shall_v be_v exhibit_v to_o all_o and_o that_o especial_o when_o such_o design_n be_v the_o counsel_n of_o wisdom_n and_o omnipotence_n beside_o if_o the_o revelation_n of_o a_o saviour_n be_v necessary_a for_o any_o then_o either_o immediate_o or_o mediate_o it_o must_v be_v necessary_a for_o all_o because_o if_o any_o of_o those_o man_n to_o who_o it_o be_v not_o make_v may_v be_v save_v without_o it_o then_o so_o may_v those_o to_o who_o it_o be_v make_v and_o so_o the_o revelation_n as_o to_o its_o necessity_n to_o salvation_n may_v have_v be_v whole_o spare_v for_o which_o reason_n we_o can_v think_v it_o sufficient_a to_o say_v that_o the_o saviour_n know_v all_o man_n and_o so_o can_v save_v they_o though_o all_o man_n do_v not_o know_v the_o saviour_n and_o so_o can_v believe_v on_o he_o and_o therefore_o the_o scripture_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n do_v express_o assign_v our_o salvation_n on_o our_o part_n to_o our_o belief_n and_o they_o do_v as_o express_o make_v our_o saviour_n the_o save_v object_n of_o such_o our_o belief_n and_o therefore_o though_o the_o author_n of_o the_o reasonableness_n of_o christianity_n have_v show_v himself_o no_o great_a friend_n to_o article_n of_o christian_a faith_n and_o therefore_o do_v at_o least_o pretend_v to_o wipe_v away_o the_o necessity_n of_o all_o other_o article_n in_o our_o creed_n but_o this_o that_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n be_v the_o messiah_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o adventure_v so_o far_o as_o to_o exclude_v the_o necessity_n of_o that_o article_n my_o business_n be_v not_o with_o that_o author_n at_o present_a and_o therefore_o have_v take_v notice_n that_o he_o do_v so_o far_o
