4._o to_o believe_v all_o that_o the_o devil_n do_v believe_v and_o not_o by_o faith_n to_o apply_v the_o mercy_n of_o god_n to_o thyself_o in_o christ_n will_v ●o_o more_o keep_v thy_o soul_n &_o

of_o god_n be_v clear_a in_o this_o case_n and_o that_o god_n require_v in_o the_o scripture_n not_o only_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o story_n but_o also_o by_o faith_n a_o application_n of_o mercy_n to_o a_o man_n own_o soul_n i_o will_v make_v manifest_a unto_o you_o by_o four_o principal_a argument_n whereof_o the_o first_o shall_v be_v draw_v from_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o

in_o christ_n and_o say_v l●e_z here_o be_v water_n etc._n etc._n now_o it_o have_v be_v show_v before_o that_o creder●_n in_o christum_fw-la to_o believe_v in_o christ_n be_v a_o great_a deal_n

this_o i_o must_v add_v that_o after_o this_o confirmation_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o confutation_n of_o falsehood_n this_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n apprehend_v and_o apply_v the_o mercy_n of_o god_n
