This must be done with a constant faith, and a sure confidence in Christ. Faith, faith, faith. We are undone for lack of faith. Christ nameth faith here, Faith is altogether. When the son of man shall come, shall he find faith on the earth? Why ⟨image 103⟩speaketh he so much of faith? because it is hard to find a true faith. He speaketh not of a political faith, a faith set up for a time, but a constant, a permanent, a durable faith, as durable as God's word. He came many times. First in the time of Noah, when he preached, but he found little faith. He came also when Loth preached, when he destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.

He speaketh not of a politicall faythe, a fayth set vp for a tyme, but a constante, a permanent, a durable faythe, as durable as goddes word. He came many tymes.
