Answer.
It may be so, and yet your Faith may be right: there is a backwardness in Saints to believe, Luk. 24.25, 26. O fools and slow of heart to believe: Saints have but a little Faith they that have most have but a little Rev 3.8. this is the general complaint of the people of God, and generally it is from Faith, that they are burdened with unbelief: a spirit of Faith makes men qualified to discern their unbelief, and makes men see an heinous evil in it.
