be_v not_o so_o the_o apostle_n state_n their_o case_n heb._n 11.4_o by_o faith_n abel_n offer_v unto_o god_n a_o more_o excellent_a sacrifice_n than_o cain_n by_o which_o he_o obtain_v witness_v

with_o our_o service_n by_o acceptance_n second_o as_o this_o be_v true_a in_o reference_n to_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n so_o in_o reference_n to_o somewhat_o in_o the_o present_a act_n or_o disposition_n of_o those_o who_o be_v gracious_a it_o be_v possible_a for_o a_o godly_a man_n to_o act_v so_o sinful_o and_o to_o be_v so_o ill_o dispose_v to_o the_o frame_n of_o his_o heart_n that_o god_n may_v seem_v to_o deny_v acceptation_n to_o his_o prayer_n and_o service_n david_n say_v psal_n 66.18_o if_o i_o regard_v iniquity_n in_o my_o heart_n the_o lord_n will_v not_o hear_v i_o and_o

a_o state_n interest_n in_o christ_n walk_v unworthy_a of_o it_o they_o be_v under_o the_o frown_n of_o god_n and_o his_o dis-acceptation_n of_o all_o their_o duty_n till_o they_o renew_v their_o repentance_n and_o humble_a themselves_o and_o i_o conceive_v this_o be_v the_o case_n of_o the_o sick_a man_n in_o the_o text_n in_o who_o doubtless_o he_o aim_v at_o job_n who_o elihu_n grant_v to_o

favourable_a to_o he_o or_o give_v he_o testimony_n of_o his_o favour_n thus_o we_o see_v in_o both_o these_o reference_n how_o the_o person_n of_o a_o man_n must_v be_v respect_v and_o in_o favour_n before_o his_o prayer_n can_v for_o as_o we_o can_v have_v no_o benefit_n by_o the_o intercession_n of_o christ_n till_o we_o accept_v his_o person_n so_o god_n will_v not_o give_v we_o any_o benefit_n by_o our_o supplication_n till_o himself_o accept_v our_o person_n which_o he_o do_v only_o in_o christ_n many_o will_v be_v save_v by_o christ_n they_o will_v be_v pardon_v and_o get_v to_o

with_o his_o person_n now_o i_o say_v as_o unless_o we_o have_v respect_n to_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n and_o desire_v union_n with_o he_o we_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o his_o benefit_n

or_o what_o be_v it_o to_o bear_v they_o i_o will_v answer_v the_o question_n under_o two_o head_n first_o negative_o to_o bear_v chastisement_n be_v not_o first_o mere_o to_o find_v or_o feel_v it_o upon_o our_o shoulder_n as_o a_o burden_n which_o pinch_v or_o press_v we_o so_o a_o beast_n may_v bear_v second_o it_o be_v not_o a_o bear_v mere_o because_o we_o can_v help_v it_o or_o be_v rid_v of_o our_o burden_n for_o so_o the_o worst_a of_o man_n may_v bear_v they_o bear_v the_o great_a burden_n that_o god_n lay_v upon_o they_o because_o they_o can_v avoid_v they_o nor_o ease_v themselves_o of_o they_o three_o it_o be_v not_o a_o bear_v stout_o or_o slight_o to_o make_v nothing_o of_o it_o so_o proud_a man_n bear_v man_n of_o unsubdued_a spirit_n unto_o god_n and_o his_o word_n regard_v not_o what_o they_o bear_v nor_o what_o god_n do_v to_o they_o four_o it_o be_v not_o a_o bear_v they_o sowrly_a or_o sullen_o for_o so_o discontent_a person_n bear_v yea_o so_o the_o devil_n bear_v the_o burden_n which_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n have_v lay_v upon_o he_o five_o nor_o be_v it_o a_o bear_a chastisement_n faint_o or_o dispond_o so_o weak_a believer_n bear_v to_o bear_v and_o faint_v be_v not_o the_o bear_n of_o faith_n neither_o of_o these_o be_v the_o bear_n of_o chastisement_n which_o elihu_n intend_v in_o this_o counsel_n when_o he_o say_v it_o be_v meet_v to_o be_v say_v unto_o god_n i_o have_v bear_v chastisement_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o negative_a what_o the_o bear_n of_o it_o be_v not_o second_o i_o answer_v affirmative_o to_o bear_v a_o chastisement_n as_o a_o act_n or_o work_v of_o grace_n be_v first_o to_o bear_v it_o sensible_o that_o be_v feel_v the_o weight_n of_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o taste_v the_o bitterness_n of_o that_o cup_n of_o

let_v he_o do_v what_o seem_v he_o good_a or_o as_o david_n 2_o sam._n 15.26_o behold_v here_o i_o be_o let_v he_o do_v to_o i_o as_o seem_v good_a unto_o he_o we_o never_o bear_v any_o evil_n of_o

say_v nothing_o can_v hurt_v a_o godly_a man_n which_o seem_v good_a to_o god_n three_o it_o be_v a_o contentful_a bear_n or_o a_o bearing_n content_o thus_o christ_n speak_v psal_n 40._o and_o it_o be_v cite_v by_o the_o apostle_n heb._n 10._o lo_o i_o come_v to_o do_v thy_o will_n i_o be_o content_a to_o do_v it_o what_o be_v that_o it_o be_v to_o bear_v or_o suffer_v the_o great_a part_n of_o what_o christ_n be_v to_o do_v be_v to_o bear_v or_o suffer_v the_o chastisement_n of_o our_o peace_n isa_n 53.5_o and_o in_o suffer_v to_o be_v make_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o we_o his_o contentment_n

this_o be_v hard_a but_o this_o can_v be_v leave_v out_o in_o the_o full_a exercise_n of_o that_o grace_n four_o it_o be_v to_o bear_v it_o more_o than_o content_o will_o how_o free_a be_v christ_n
