The life of faith in three parts, the first is a sermon on Heb.…

So that much of the objects of our faith to us invisible, have yet been seen by those that have instrumentally revealed them; and the glory of Heaven it self is seen by many millions of souls, that are now possessing it. And the tradition of the Testimony of the Apostles unto us, is more full and satisfactory, than the tradition of any Laws of the Land, or History of the most unquestionable affairs that have been done among the people of the earth: (as I have manifested elsewhere.) So that faith hath the infallible Testimony of God, and of them that have seen, and therefore is to us instead of sight.

6. Lastly, Even the enemy of faith himself doth against his will confirm our faith by the violence and rage of malice, that he stirreth up in the ungodly against the life of faith and holiness; ⟨p. 9⟩and by the importunity of his oppositions and temptations, discovering that it is not for nothing that he is so maliciously solicitous, industrious, and violent.
