Robert Traill (Stedfast Adherence to the Profession of our Faith), Works 3:111-112:

When a great many Christians’ doubtings are thoroughly sifted and canvassed, it will be found that the shaking of their faith, as to their interest in Christ, proceeds much from the weakness of their faith as to the gospel-report concerning him. If people did firmly believe all that is said in the Old and New Testament, concerning that righteousness and salvation wrought out by the Son of God, they would find it an easier matter to apply it to themselves, and say, Surely, (1.) I have no righteousness of my own. (2.) Nor can any creature procure it for me. (3.) Enough is in Christ. (4.) All is offered to me in the gospel. (5.) My soul likes the offer. (6.) I willingly accept him for my only Saviour. Surely, shall one say, in the Lord have I righteousness and strength, Isa. 45:24.
