And though you are not able at present to evidence him such a God to you, as he hath manifested himself in his Word, yet by faith conclude him so, when you cannot clear him so. Thus Job did; so Job. 13. These things hast thou hid in thy heart, 1yet J know that this is with thee, though I ⟨p. 168⟩cannot see it; yet I do believe it, though I cannot clear it, yet I do conclude it. And thus the Church, 36. Isaiah, 16. Doubtless thou art our Father; 2She will not be reasoned out of her faith, she will hold the conclusion of faith against all the evidence that sense and reason can bring to the contrary: This is with Ulysses, to bind our selves fast to the mast, and not suffer our selves to be charmed away, to the destruction and undoing of our own souls.
