Wherein the nature, excellency, and usefulness of that noble grace is much cleared, and the practice thereof most powerfully pressed. Whereunto are added other three sermons, two concerning the great salvation, one of these not formerly printed, and a third concerning death. / By that pious and worthy servant of Jesus Christ, Mr. Andrew Gray, late minister of the Gospel in Glasgow. All these sermons being now carefully revised, and much corrected.	Gray, Andrew, 1633-1656.; Traill, Robert, 1642-1716.; Stirling, John, b. 1621?	1668 (1668)	Wing G1616; ESTC R177630	121,416	225

clear_a from_o heb._n 11.8_o by_o faith_n abraham_n when_o he_o be_v command_v to_o go_v to_o a_o strange_a land_n obey_v and_o go_v out_o not_o know_v whether_o he_o go_v the_o word_n may_v be_v

his_o precept_n be_v your_o cress_n it_o be_v because_o of_o this_o you_o do_v not_o believe_v and_o so_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o a_o christian_n to_o attain_v to_o a_o pleasant_a way_n of_o obedience_n without_o the_o exercise_n of_o faith_n faith_n hold_v up_o the_o crown_n to_o a_o christian_a and_o this_o crown_n make_v he_o to_o obey_v faith_n gather_v strength_n from_o christ_n and_o that_o strength_n make_v obedience_n very_o easy_a faith_n take_v up_o the_o excellency_n of_o christ_n and_o this_o make_v a_o christian_n to_o look_v upon_o his_o

we_o be_v more_o in_o the_o exercise_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o faith_n will_v you_o know_v a_o answer_n to_o that_o question_n what_o be_v first_o more_o requisite_a for_o a_o christian_a while_n

that_o which_o can_v be_v see_v but_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v this_o that_o faith_n discovery_n of_o god_n be_v as_o certain_a and_o sure_a as_o the_o discovery_n of_o our_o bodily_a eye_n be_v faith_n be_v a_o intelligent_a grace_n yea_o it_o be_v a_o most_o sure_a and_o infallible_a grace_n what_o will_v faith_n not_o do_v and_o what_o can_v you_o do_v who_o want_n faith_n now_o to_o enforce_v the_o advantage_n and_o excellency_n of_o faith_n a_o little_a more_o we_o shall_v propose_v to_o you_o the_o disadvantage_n of_o that_o woeful_a sin_n of_o unbelief_n 1._o there_o be_v this_o disadvantage_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o unbelief_n that_o all_o the_o action_n that_o proceed_v from_o a_o unbeliever_n they_o be_v impure_a and_o defile_v according_a to_o that_o in_o tit._n 1.15_o but_o unto_o they_o that_o be_v defile_v and_o unbelieving_a be_v nothing_o pure_a but_o even_o their_o mind_n and_o conscience_n be_v defile_v their_o prayer_n be_v unclean_a yea_o as_o

what_o ever_o be_v not_o of_o faith_n be_v sin_n so_o the_o want_n of_o faith_n be_v the_o great_a polluter_n of_o all_o our_o action_n and_o of_o all_o our_o performance_n 2._o there_o be_v this_o

of_o faith_n as_o be_v clear_a from_o isai_n 7.9_o except_o you_o believe_v you_o shall_v not_o be_v establish_v 4._o there_o be_v this_o disadvantage_n that_o wait_v on_o it_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o hardness_n and_o stupidity_n of_o heart_n according_a to_o that_o word_n in_o mark_n 16.14_o where_o he_o upbraid_v they_o because_o of_o their_o unbelief_n and_o then_o that_o danger_n follow_v
