there_o be_v a_o faith_n require_v in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n there_o be_v a_o faith_n require_v in_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n to_o think_v that_o every_o particular_a thing_n be_v order_v by_o it_o there_o be_v also_o a_o faith_n in_o all_o the_o threaten_n of_o god_n now_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o propound_v when_o the_o scripture_n come_v to_o propound_v any_o thing_n it_o propound_v it_o thus_o and_o no_o more_o as_o you_o see_v in_o moses_n he_o write_v nothing_o but_o 1._o in_o the_o beginning_n god_n make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o the_o apostle_n write_v such_o a_o thing_n be_v do_v 2._o jesus_n christ_n be_v bear_v of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n thus_o and_o thus_o he_o do_v now_o when_o the_o naked_a object_n be_v propound_v other_o writer_n what_o they_o deliver_v or_o write_v be_v rational_a they_o use_v reason_n and_o argument_n to_o convince_v man_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o they_o deliver_v but_o when_o the_o scripture_n set_v down_o any_o proposition_n of_o faith_n it_o do_v but_o bare_o propound_v they_o for_o there_o be_v the_o majesty_n of_o god_n and_o authority_n of_o god_n in_o they_o to_o confirm_v they_o but_o now_o here_o you_o will_v demand_v quest._n the_o proposition_n be_v but_o naked_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o scripture_n what_o will_v enable_v a_o man_n to_o believe_v it_o i_o answer_v answ._n that_o certain_o there_o be_v a_o mighty_a power_n that_o go_v out_o from_o god_n &_o from_o christ_n that_o enable_v thou_o to_o believe_v with_o this_o efficacy_n that_o where_o the_o object_n be_v set_v before_o thou_o there_o go_v out_o a_o power_n from_o he_o to_o work_v faith_n in_o thy_o heart_n whereby_o thou_o true_o believe_v it_o and_o so_o it_o appear_v in_o thy_o life_n we_o think_v we_o believe_v those_o thing_n but_o our_o life_n do_v manifest_v the_o contrary_a namely_o that_o there_o be_v not_o a_o powerful_a faith_n wrought_v in_o we_o for_o all_o the_o error_n of_o our_o life_n though_o we_o observe_v they_o not_o arise_v from_o hence_o that_o these_o principle_n be_v not_o thorough_o believe_v if_o they_o be_v it_o can_v not_o be_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o inconvenience_n in_o the_o life_n of_o man_n therefore_o consider_v if_o this_o faith_n be_v wrought_v in_o thou_o whether_o such_o a_o power_n have_v go_v out_o to_o work_v such_o a_o faith_n that_o have_v change_v thy_o whole_a course_n as_o it_o will_v do_v if_o it_o be_v once_o wrought_v in_o thou_o by_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n so_o also_o consider_v whether_o there_o have_v a_o virtue_n go_v out_o from_o he_o to_o work_v love_n in_o thy_o heart_n to_o the_o lord_n for_o otherwise_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o be_v able_a to_o love_n god_n or_o to_o come_v near_o he_o for_o all_o love_n rise_v from_o similitude_n there_o must_v be_v a_o agreement_n and_o similitude_n between_o those_o two_o that_o love_n now_o every_o man_n by_o nature_n be_v as_o contrary_a to_o god_n pure_a nature_n as_o fire_n be_v to_o water_n and_o without_o a_o almighty_a power_n to_o change_v his_o nature_n and_o to_o work_v a_o particular_a affection_n of_o love_n in_o he_o he_o can_v never_o be_v able_a to_o love_n god_n therefore_o it_o be_v the_o baptism_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 11._o i_o will_v baptize_v you_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n that_o be_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v fire_n 16._o i_o will_v multiply_v thy_o sorrow_n and_o thy_o conception_n that_o be_v the_o sorrow_n of_o thy_o conception_n now_o love_n be_v as_o fire_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o one_o fire_n must_v beget_v another_o and_o therefore_o you_o have_v it_o in_o the_o common_a proverb_n love_n be_v a_o thing_n that_o can_v be_v buy_v with_o mountain_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n yet_o if_o thou_o be_v in_o christ_n there_o go_v out_o a_o virtue_n from_o he_o that_o stamp_v upon_o thy_o heart_n this_o holy_a affection_n that_o breed_v in_o thou_o this_o holy_a fire_n of_o love_n so_o that_o thy_o heart_n cleave_v to_o he_o thou_o love_v he_o with_o as_o true_a with_o as_o genuine_a as_o natural_a and_o as_o sensible_a love_n as_o thou_o love_v any_o friend_n as_o thou_o love_v any_o creature_n in_o the_o world_n consider_v if_o this_o be_v wrought_v in_o thou_o or_o no._n and_o so_o for_o thy_o knowledge_n there_o be_v also_o a_o power_n in_o it_o consider_v whether_o any_o such_o virtue_n have_v go_v out_o from_o christ_n to_o make_v the_o knowledge_n which_o thou_o have_v powerful_a you_o will_v say_v quest._n what_o be_v that_o that_o be_v answ._n to_o bring_v on_o these_o truth_n which_o thy_o heart_n assent_v unto_o to_o bring_v they_o with_o that_o evidence_n and_o fullness_n of_o demonstration_n that_o thou_o shall_v yield_v unto_o they_o and_o practice_v they_o according_a to_o thy_o knowledge_n belove_a there_o be_v much_o knowledge_n among_o we_o but_o who_o practise_v according_a to_o his_o knowledge_n 21._o we_o know_v god_n but_o we_o glorify_v he_o not_o as_o god_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o there_o have_v not_o go_v a_o power_n with_o that_o knowledge_n to_o make_v it_o lively_a and_o effectual_a to_o pass_v through_o all_o the_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o to_o over-rule_v they_o for_o if_o there_o be_v such_o knowledge_n it_o will_v always_o draw_v affection_n and_o practice_v with_o it_o so_o likewise_o consider_v whether_o there_o have_v go_v a_o power_n from_o he_o to_o mortify_v thy_o lust_n 24_o whosoever_o be_v in_o christ_n have_v crucify_v the_o flesh_n with_o the_o affection_n and_o lust_n not_o to_o lay_v they_o asleep_a only_o but_o to_o mortify_v and_o subdue_v they_o see_v likewise_o whether_o there_o have_v a_o power_n go_v out_o from_o christ_n to_o help_v thou_o to_o overcome_v the_o world_n 16._o the_o lust_n of_o thy_o eye_n the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o pride_n of_o life_n for_o whosoever_o be_v in_o christ_n overcome_v the_o world_n and_o all_o that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n the_o world_n have_v many_o thing_n to_o work_v upon_o we_o and_o to_o resist_v and_o oppose_v we_o it_o have_v persecution_n it_o have_v disgrace_n it_o have_v slander_n and_o reproach_n which_o it_o cast_v upon_o holy_a man_n and_o upon_o the_o holy_a way_n of_o god_n and_o the_o man_n that_o be_v actor_n in_o this_o be_v the_o devil_n factour_n though_o they_o think_v not_o so_o as_o the_o apostle_n james_n express_v it_o 6._o their_o tongue_n be_v set_v on_o fire_n of_o hell_n to_o devise_v slander_n and_o false_a report_n and_o to_o fasten_v they_o upon_o holy_a man_n especial_o upon_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o so_o upon_o all_o the_o way_n of_o god_n i_o say_v they_o be_v the_o devil_n factour_n though_o they_o think_v not_o so_o and_o those_o that_o believe_v they_o be_v the_o devil_n receiver_n the_o one_o have_v the_o devil_n in_o his_o tongue_n the_o other_o in_o his_o ear_n but_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v this_o this_o be_v one_o thing_n whereby_o the_o world_n fight_v against_o the_o way_n of_o god_n to_o discourage_v man_n and_o to_o hinder_v they_o that_o they_o may_v be_v stumble_a block_n to_o they_o so_o it_o be_v with_o christ_n he_o 34._o be_v the_o fall_n of_o many_o in_o israel_n by_o reason_n of_o this_o so_o be_v paul_n as_o a_o deceiver_n and_o yet_o true_a etc._n etc._n consider_v if_o thou_o have_v this_o efficacy_n put_v into_o thy_o heart_n that_o thou_o be_v able_a to_o overcome_v this_o that_o thou_o be_v able_a to_o overcome_v all_o the_o offence_n and_o persecution_n all_o the_o slander_n and_o reproach_n that_o be_v cast_v upon_o the_o way_n of_o god_n and_o notwithstanding_o that_o to_o think_v well_o of_o they_o and_o to_o walk_v in_o they_o and_o practice_v they_o likewise_o as_o it_o have_v these_o thing_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n so_o it_o have_v pleasure_n preferment_n glory_n riches_n credit_n and_o all_o thing_n of_o that_o nature_n on_o the_o other_o be_v thou_o able_a to_o overcome_v all_o these_o so_o to_o shut_v up_o this_o point_n &_o prosecute_v it_o no_o further_o thus_o you_o shall_v know_v whether_o you_o be_v in_o christ_n for_o that_o be_v the_o point_n we_o have_v assurance_n in_o he_o that_o if_o we_o ask_v any_o thing_n we_o shall_v be_v hear_v but_o first_o we_o must_v be_v in_o he_o now_o to_o know_v whether_o we_o be_v in_o he_o as_o you_o have_v hear_v there_o must_v be_v a_o act_n of_o we_o and_o second_o a_o act_n of_o he_o which_o be_v this_o power_n that_o go_v out_o from_o he_o to_o change_v to_o take_v and_o comprehend_v we_o so_o much_o for_o the_o first_o thing_n now_o for_o the_o second_o if_o a_o man_n will_v apply_v or_o

receive_v the_o sacrament_n the_o very_a intention_n be_v increase_v but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o there_o be_v another_o thing_n in_o the_o sacrament_n that_o much_o increase_v it_o and_o that_o be_v a_o thing_n i_o will_v have_v you_o chief_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o that_o be_v the_o very_a sacrament_n itself_o the_o element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n deliver_v to_o thou_o with_o the_o very_a word_n of_o the_o minister_n 25._o take_v and_o eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n that_o be_v break_v for_o thou_o take_v and_o drink_v this_o be_v my_o blood_n that_o be_v shed_v etc._n etc._n for_o when_o these_o word_n be_v speak_v to_o we_o if_o we_o do_v consider_v well_o of_o they_o and_o think_v thus_o with_o ourselves_o these_o word_n that_o the_o lord_n he_o himself_o have_v appoint_v the_o minister_n to_o speak_v for_o therein_o be_v the_o force_n of_o they_o that_o they_o be_v of_o the_o lord_n own_o institution_n therefore_o the_o strength_n of_o every_o sacrament_n lie_v in_o the_o institution_n that_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o dininity_n the_o papist_n themselves_o who_o have_v add_v five_o other_o sacrament_n can_v deny_v but_o that_o every_o sacrament_n must_v have_v a_o immediate_a institution_n from_o christ_n himself_o even_o from_o his_o own_o mouth_n or_o else_o there_o be_v no_o strength_n in_o it_o so_o that_o even_o as_o it_o be_v with_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v symboll_n of_o other_o thing_n as_o take_v mark_n in_o field_n that_o stand_v for_o the_o division_n of_o several_a man_n right_n take_v counter_n that_o stand_v for_o thousand_o and_o hundred_o the_o very_a essence_n of_o these_o thing_n stand_v in_o the_o very_a institution_n of_o they_o so_o in_o the_o sacrament_n except_o these_o word_n be_v from_o the_o lord_n own_o mouth_n that_o deliver_v it_o this_o very_a deliver_v of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v a_o sign_n to_o you_o of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o your_o sin_n except_o the_o lord_n have_v thus_o institute_v it_o there_o have_v be_v no_o force_n in_o it_o i_o say_v consider_v they_o be_v word_n that_o the_o minister_n speak_v not_o in_o a_o ordinary_a course_n but_o he_o be_v appoint_v by_o the_o lord_n himself_o to_o speak_v they_o and_o now_o when_o these_o word_n make_v a_o new_a impression_n upon_o thy_o heart_n it_o add_v a_o intention_n to_o thy_o faith_n and_o love_n for_o example_n to_o make_v it_o a_o little_a more_o clear_a to_o you_o that_o you_o may_v understand_v it_o distinct_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v this_o he_o will_v forgive_v the_o sin_n of_o all_o those_o that_o come_v unto_o he_o he_o will_v forgive_v they_o that_o forsake_v their_o sin_n and_o take_v christ_n jesus_n and_o love_n and_o fear_v he_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v the_o lord_n may_v have_v suffer_v it_o to_o go_v thus_o in_o general_a that_o he_o have_v deliver_v it_o unto_o you_o and_o no_o more_o but_o he_o think_v good_a to_o go_v further_o and_o say_v thus_o to_o mankind_n it_o be_v true_a i_o have_v say_v it_o but_o i_o will_v not_o content_v myself_o with_o that_o but_o will_v add_v certain_a seal_n and_o symboll_n certain_a external_a sign_n that_o thou_o shall_v see_v and_o look_v on_o and_o i_o say_v to_o thou_o this_o covenant_n have_v i_o make_v with_o thou_o and_o when_o thou_o see_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n deliver_v by_o the_o minister_n know_v this_o that_o the_o thing_n that_o thou_o see_v be_v a_o witness_n between_o thou_o and_o i_o that_o as_o it_o be_v say_v by_o laban_n and_o jacob_n when_o they_o make_v a_o covenant_n 48._o this_o stone_n be_v witness_n between_o we_o and_o god_n say_v to_o 15._o noah_n when_o i_o look_v upon_o the_o rainbow_n it_o shall_v be_v a_o sign_n that_o i_o will_v destroy_v the_o earth_n no_o more_o after_o this_o manner_n when_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v it_o and_o have_v appoint_v this_o outward_a symbol_n that_o thy_o eye_n look_v upon_o i_o remember_v the_o covenant_n and_o this_o be_v a_o sign_n between_o we_o this_o shall_v bind_v i_o to_o it_o and_o he_o likewise_o now_o when_o this_o be_v do_v anew_o it_o may_v be_v every_o month_n this_o be_v a_o wondrous_a great_a mercy_n this_o be_v a_o marvellous_a great_a help_n if_o it_o be_v right_o understand_v to_o strengthen_v our_o faith_n do_v it_o not_o help_v we_o when_o we_o see_v the_o rainbow_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v to_o put_v he_o in_o mind_n of_o his_o covenant_n 15._o i_o will_v remember_v my_o covenant_n when_o i_o look_v on_o the_o bow_n in_o the_o cloud_n it_o shall_v confirm_v i_o and_o i_o will_v not_o break_v my_o covenant_n to_o destroy_v the_o world_n with_o a_o flood_n so_o this_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n when_o the_o lord_n look_v upon_o it_o he_o can_v but_o remember_v his_o promise_n and_o his_o covenant_n of_o pardon_v our_o sin_n and_o when_o thou_o look_v on_o it_o thou_o be_v assure_v of_o it_o for_o he_o have_v say_v it_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o sign_n and_o a_o witness_n between_o we_o now_o i_o say_v that_o new_a impression_n that_o these_o word_n thus_o contrive_v and_o understand_v and_o deliver_v by_o the_o minister_n make_v upon_o the_o heart_n intend_v our_o faith_n and_o love_n as_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o great_a matter_n to_o have_v it_o speak_v to_o we_o by_o a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n send_v from_o christ_n from_o his_o own_o mouth_n 25._o take_v and_o

four_o qvalification_n that_o be_v reqvire_v that_o our_o faith_n and_o love_n be_v intend_v and_o our_o union_n increase_v that_o the_o will_n resolution_n and_o purpose_n of_o take_v christ_n for_o our_o lord_n receive_v more_o degree_n that_o so_o we_o may_v be_v more_o fast_o and_o firm_o unite_v and_o knit_v to_o he_o which_o i_o say_v be_v do_v partly_o by_o the_o repetition_n on_o both_o

which_o be_v require_v still_o remember_v the_o main_a thing_n we_o be_v upon_o that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o thou_o to_o be_v in_o christ_n but_o if_o thou_o will_v be_v a_o worthy_a receiver_n thou_o must_v have_v these_o four_o qualification_n in_o thou_o that_o i_o have_v name_v already_o thou_o must_v reconcile_v thyself_o anew_o thou_o must_v rub_v off_o the_o rust_n from_o thy_o soul_n which_o it_o have_v gather_v thou_o must_v recover_v the_o distance_n that_o be_v grow_v between_o god_n and_o thou_o thou_o must_v add_v a_o intend_v and_o a_o increase_n thou_o must_v add_v more_o degree_n to_o thy_o faith_n and_o love_n and_o after_o all_o these_o five_o and_o last_o this_o be_v also_o require_v which_o be_v much_o for_o our_o benefit_n and_o comfort_n namely_o to_o put_v up_o thy_o request_n when_o thou_o come_v near_o to_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o sacrament_n now_o thou_o must_v not_o only_o do_v this_o but_o thou_o must_v also_o make_v some_o use_n of_o the_o covenant_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v make_v with_o thou_o for_o his_o part_n so_o that_o thou_o may_v think_v this_o with_o thyself_o when_o i_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n i_o

of_o all_o thing_n you_o have_v all_o the_o promise_n belong_v to_o you_o that_o belong_v to_o this_o life_n and_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v this_o be_v the_o covenant_n which_o the_o lord_n
