Answ. It is of moment indeed, if a man be deceived here, he is undone to eternity, unless by the discovery of it in this life […] be awakened to look out for faith […] and 2 Tim. 1.5. But sad it is to […] where so common and dangerous as […] and eternal concernment; and […] careless of deceits. If a man be to […] forty shillings per annum, let but a man give him […] of some deceit that may be in the Title, lot but one intelligent man but once hint such a thing, he hath said enough, the man now looks about him; tell the same man, there are great deceits in mens faith, repentance, and that he hath a deceitful heart as well as any, therefore look to your faith, make sure work, the salvation of your Soul lies upon it; he answers you with a tush, look you to your self, let me alone with my faith, I shall do well enough I warrant you. Oh the power of Atheism.
