The assurance of our saluation is many times ac∣companied with feares & doubts, which doe perplex the soule of the most righteous.
The true worke of Faith, is, to assure vs of Gods loue, and to enioy that comfort, without let to cherish the same, and resist the contra∣ry,
but the weaknesse of our faith, and strength of cor∣ruption is such, that we doe not alwayes attaine these, but as in the practice of good actions we sometime reioyce, and finding great infirmity in sinning, wee mourne for them, (such change by turnes are in the most regenerate) so in faith, wherein we receiue a Testi∣mony of Gods loue, there is a change, because we appre∣hend not this assurance im∣mediatly, as a principle, but by collection or conclusiō: so the alteration is in appre∣hēding of the premises wher¦upon the cōclusiō arose: for Gods promises and effects of grace appeare not al∣wayes the same: yea, some∣times
contrarie.
