501     IV,  XVIII |             the plain principles of reason, and the evident knowledge
502     IV,  XVIII |           and distinct ideas; there reason must be hearkened to, as
503     IV,  XVIII |          judge of it as a matter of reason, and not swallow it, without
504     IV,  XVIII |         Revelation in matters where reason cannot judge, or but probably,
505     IV,  XVIII |          matter of faith, and above reason.~Secondly, All propositions
506     IV,  XVIII |       acquired ideas, are matter of reason; with this difference still,
507     IV,  XVIII |   overturning the principles of all reason; in such probable propositions,
508     IV,  XVIII |             where the principles of reason have not evidenced a proposition
509     IV,  XVIII |            faith, and be also above reason. Because reason, in that
510     IV,  XVIII |          also above reason. Because reason, in that particular matter,
511     IV,  XVIII |             the determination where reason came short; and revelation
512     IV,  XVIII |           lay.~10. In matters where reason can afford certain knowledge,
513     IV,  XVIII |            violence or hindrance to reason; which is not injured or
514     IV,  XVIII |            divine revelation or no, reason must judge; which can never
515     IV,  XVIII |           that of the principles of reason: and therefore Nothing that
516     IV,  XVIII |            self-evident dictates of reason, has a right to he urged
517     IV,  XVIII |            matter of faith, wherein reason hath nothing to do. Whatsoever
518     IV,  XVIII |          submission as this, of our reason to faith, takes not away
519     IV,  XVIII |       shakes not the foundations of reason, but leaves us that use
520     IV,  XVIII |           not set between faith and reason, no enthusiasm or extravagancy
521     IV,  XVIII |          the provinces of faith and reason are not kept distinct by
522     IV,  XVIII |            religion, be no room for reason at all; and those extravagant
523     IV,  XVIII |           of faith in opposition to reason, we may, I think, in good
524     IV,  XVIII |          that they must not consult reason in the things of religion,
525     IV,  XIX   |             of enthusiasm, in which reason is taken away. Upon this
526     IV,  XIX   |        relied on as either faith or reason; I mean enthusiasm: which,
527     IV,  XIX   |        enthusiasm: which, laying by reason, would set up revelation
528     IV,  XIX   |           effect it takes away both reason and revelation, and substitutes
529     IV,  XIX   |             opinion and conduct.~4. Reason and revelation. Reason is
530     IV,  XIX   |              Reason and revelation. Reason is natural revelation, whereby
531     IV,  XIX   |    faculties: revelation is natural reason enlarged by a new set of
532     IV,  XIX   |           by God immediately; which reason vouches the truth of, by
533     IV,  XIX   |             that he that takes away reason to make way for revelation,
534     IV,  XIX   |         knowledge and principles of reason. Hence we see that, in all
535     IV,  XIX   |           though founded neither on reason nor divine revelation, but
536     IV,  XIX   |         freed from all restraint of reason and check of reflection,
537     IV,  XIX   |       matter to get them out of it. Reason is lost upon them, they
538     IV,  XIX   |            need not the twilight of reason to show it us. This light
539     IV,  XIX   |    celestial ray by our dim candle, reason.~9. Enthusiasm how to be
540     IV,  XIX   |            self-evidence to natural reason, or by the rational proofs
541     IV,  XIX   |            revelation from God, the reason is good: but then it will
542     IV,  XIX   |       revelation, and have no other reason for its being a revelation,
543     IV,  XIX   |        persuaded, without any other reason, that it is true, then they
544     IV,  XIX   |     Revelation must be judged of by reason. He, therefore, that will
545     IV,  XIX   |            usual methods of natural reason, or else makes it known
546     IV,  XIX   |            him, by some marks which reason cannot be mistaken in. Reason
547     IV,  XIX   |       reason cannot be mistaken in. Reason must be our last judge and
548     IV,  XIX   |           mean that we must consult reason, and examine whether a proposition
549     IV,  XIX   |   revelation from God or no: and if reason finds it to be revealed
550     IV,  XIX   |            to be revealed from God, reason then declares for it as
551     IV,  XIX   |        judge of our persuasions: if reason must not examine their truth
552     IV,  XIX   |    conformable to the principles of reason, or to the word of God,
553     IV,  XIX   |             is attested revelation, reason warrants it, and we may
554     IV,  XIX   |           in such cases too we have reason and Scripture; unerring
555     IV,  XIX   |            to the dictates of right reason or holy writ, we may be
556     IV,  XIX   |             us, or that standard of reason which is common to us with
557     IV,  XIX   |           to us with all men. Where reason or Scripture is express
558     IV,  XX    |             their estates, who have reason to fear their affairs are
559     IV,  XX    |            That he must believe his reason (for so men improperly call
560     IV,  XX    |            some proofs in matter of reason, being suppositions upon
561     IV,  XX    |             or by the assistance of reason, I can no more refuse to
562     IV,  XX    |             much less would he have reason to think that they took
563     IV,  XX    |       regard for religion; for what reason should we think that he
