hour_n and_o say_v i_o know_v that_o my_o redeemer_n live_v and_o that_o i_o shall_v see_v he_o for_o myself_o and_o my_o eye_n shall_v behold_v and_o not_o another_o though_o my_o reins_n be_v consume_v within_o i_o but_o sense_n be_v not_o like_o the_o night_n horologue_n but_o like_o the_o sun-dial_n that_o can_v point_v the_o hour_n in_o the_o night_n nay_o nor_o yet_o in_o daylight_n if_o the_o same_o be_v under_o cloud_n sense_n must_v have_v daylight_n and_o a_o shine_a sun_n and_o can_v do_v nothing_o for_o christ_n upon_o trust_n and_o this_o be_v a_o great_a unthankfulness_n in_o our_o sense_n for_o it_o be_v faith_n and_o not_o sense_n that_o lay_v hold_v on_o relation_n and_o such_o a_o relation_n as_o be_v between_o husband_n and_o wife_n so_o the_o lord_n speak_v

our_o own_o state_n if_o the_o light_n of_o the_o spirit_n concur_v to_o make_v the_o promise_n visible_a to_o our_o spiritual_a sense_n not_o only_o as_o true_a but_o also_o as_o good_a and_o sweet_a for_o we_o see_v colour_n and_o apprehend_v they_o both_o as_o colour_n and_o as_o pleasant_a and_o delectable_a so_o a_o man_n may_v see_v a_o great_a heap_n of_o gold_n which_o belong_v to_o another_o man_n he_o see_v it_o as_o of_o such_o a_o colour_n and_o as_o it_o offer_v itself_o to_o the_o eye_n but_o because_o it_o be_v not_o his_o own_o nor_o have_v he_o any_o hope_v it_o can_v be_v his_o own_o he_o see_v it_o possible_o with_o grief_n but_o if_o it_o be_v offer_v and_o give_v to_o he_o he_o shall_v then_o see_v it_o as_o good_a and_o acceptable_a now_o the_o ground_n of_o a_o weak_a faith_n be_v a_o weak_a evidence_n of_o our_o interest_n in_o christ_n small_a and_o weak_a evidence_n produce_v weak_a act_n of_o believe_v it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v sometime_o little_a evidence_n of_o knowledge_n where_o there_o be_v strong_a adherence_n and_o strong_a faith_n as_o many_o unlettered_a martyr_n of_o no_o great_a knowledge_n in_o the_o scripture_n have_v die_v with_o great_a adherence_n and_o strength_n of_o faith_n but_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a evidence_n one_o literal_a another_o spiritual_a it_o be_v unpossible_a there_o can_v be_v a_o strong_a faith_n but_o there_o must_v be_v a_o strong_a spiritual_a evidence_n proportionable_a thereunto_o to_o convey_v it_o for_o faith_n walk_v not_o without_o eye_n and_o therefore_o the_o weakness_n of_o spiritual_a evidence_n of_o our_o interest_n in_o christ_n as_o here_o the_o apostle_n see_v not_o but_o christ_n have_v forget_v they_o and_o care_v not_o that_o they_o perish_v must_v produce_v a_o weak_a faith_n again_o faith_n come_v not_o only_o from_o discourse_n and_o the_o moral_a persuasion_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n make_v use_n of_o sanctify_a reason_n discourse_n but_o also_o sometime_o from_o a_o mere_a spiritual_a instinct_n as_o where_o there_o be_v no_o discourse_n especial_o when_o we_o first_o believe_v and_o have_v nothing_o but_o a_o mere_a command_n and_o know_v not_o whether_o the_o promise_n and_o the_o saviour_n belong_v to_o we_o or_o not_o even_o as_o the_o infant_n that_o can_v make_v no_o use_n of_o discourse_n rely_v and_o trust_v to_o the_o mother_n or_o nurse_n for_o milk_n by_o mere_a instinct_n have_v neither_o promise_n nor_o experience_n for_o it_o and_o the_o young_a chicken_n confide_v in_o the_o cover_n of_o the_o hen_n wing_n and_o the_o lamb_n for_o food_n from_o the_o dam_n mere_o by_o natural_a instinct_n so_o when_o we_o be_v new_o bear_v again_o the_o first_o act_n of_o fiducial_a adherence_n seem_v to_o be_v from_o the_o new_a nature_n and_o instinct_n of_o grace_n as_o the_o child_n in_o a_o sudden_a danger_n without_o discourse_n or_o promise_n that_o his_o father_n will_v help_v he_o run_v to_o his_o father_n and_o the_o coney_n in_o danger_n to_o their_o hole_n of_o the_o rock_n and_o so_o a_o weak_a instinct_n of_o grace_n may_v produce_v weak_a act_n and_o by_o the_o way_n the_o promise_n may_v be_v forget_v and_o out_o of_o mind_n and_o the_o assurance_n that_o christ_n love_v i_o before_o the_o world_n be_v none_o at_o all_o and_o a_o believer_n yet_o may_v rely_v and_o confide_v in_o christ_n through_o instinct_n and_o know_v no_o ground_n as_o through_o some_o secret_a sympathy_n of_o nature_n one_o may_v love_v another_o and_o they_o know_v not_o the_o reason_n and_o proportional_o may_v trust_v in_o another_o also_o for_o love_n produce_v some_o confidence_n so_o some_o be_v kind_a and_o their_o heart_n warm_v with_o christ_n and_o they_o do_v not_o well_o know_v christ_n as_o the_o disciple_n go_v to_o emmaus_n have_v heart_n burn_v with_o the_o love_n of_o god_n but_o they_o know_v not_o it_o be_v christ_n who_o be_v there_o the_o three_o man_n confer_v with_o they_o 5._o conclus_fw-la infirmity_n the_o chief_a cause_n as_o of_o all_o sin_n of_o infirmity_n so_o of_o a_o weak_a and_o infirm_a faith_n be_v not_o so_o much_o from_o want_n of_o will_n as_o want_v of_o power_n and_o rather_o from_o want_n of_o grace_n and_o a_o large_a measure_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n than_o from_o malice_n and_o wickedness_n i_o deny_v not_o but_o the_o corruption_n of_o a_o wicked_a nature_n have_v influence_n in_o sin_n of_o infirmity_n and_o in_o a_o weak_a faith_n as_o it_o have_v in_o all_o sin_n as_o some_o of_o the_o mother_n seed_n must_v always_o be_v in_o the_o child_n but_o i_o speak_v comparative_o and_o in_o regard_n of_o that_o which_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o sin_n therefore_o sin_n of_o infirmity_n and_o a_o weak_a faith_n though_o they_o be_v not_o venial_a sin_n as_o papist_n vain_o teach_v yet_o they_o be_v sin_n of_o a_o low_a size_n for_o there_o be_v less_o activeness_n and_o more_o passiveness_n in_o these_o sin_n and_o so_o less_o will_v and_o more_o renitency_n and_o reluctancy_n then_o in_o reign_v sin_n and_o all_o sin_n of_o infirmity_n have_v but_o the_o half_a of_o the_o will_n sometime_o nothing_o but_o a_o virtual_a
