they_o be_v go_v no_o certain_o but_o that_o thou_o may_v reason_v for_o thy_o comfort_n if_o such_o a_o cedar_n be_v blow_v over_o by_o the_o wind_n though_o i_o be_v so_o i_o need_v not_o despair_v three_o affliction_n be_v cail_v tentation_n because_o there_o be_v no_o affliction_n but_o it_o also_o have_v a_o tentation_n accompany_v it_o and_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o so_o try_v by_o the_o

the_o affliction_n as_o all_o that_o turn_v aside_o to_o sinful_a course_n to_o cshew_a the_o cross_n be_v yea_o 2_o we_o by_o this_o guard_n against_o the_o great_a hazard_n from_o affliction_n the_o least_o sin_n be_v worse_a than_o the_o great_a cross_n and_o if_o we_o guard_v against_o the_o tentation_n of_o the_o affliction_n we_o be_v keep_v from_o the_o sin_n that_o satan_n by_o the_o affliction_n dryves_fw-mi at_o as_o in_o job_n case_n he_o do_v at_o that_o that_o he_o shall_v curse_v god_n and_o die_v two_o whatever_o be_v the_o design_n of_o instrument_n and_o secondary_a cause_n in_o our_o affliction_n yet_o it_o be_v certain_a satan_n who_o use_v to_o take_v the_o advantage_n of_o our_o affliction_n in_o misrepresent_v god_n to_o we_o design_n principal_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v overcome_v by_o the_o tentation_n of_o the_o affliction_n and_o a_o believer_n come_v brave_o through_o his_o trial_n when_o he_o can_v say_v as_o david_n ps_n 18_o which_o psalm_n be_v

i_o from_o my_o iniquity_n the_o scope_n and_o use_n of_o this_o point_n be_v to_o press_v the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o look_v aright_o on_o their_o affliction_n as_o have_v tentation_n accompany_v they_o you_o be_v all_o fear_v a_o cloud_n gather_v and_o be_v ready_a to_o be_v perplex_v with_o the_o difficulty_n you_o forecast_v but_o be_v exhort_v to_o look_v most_o to_o the_o tentation_n this_o warning_n christ_n give_v his_o disciple_n when_o he_o be_v about_o to_o suffer_v watch_n and_o pray_v that_o you_o enter_v not_o into_o tentation_n he_o say_v not_o into_o affliction_n but_o

evil_a observat_fw-la iv_o that_o a_o believer_n must_v not_o only_o expect_v tentation_n from_o sarhan_n but_o from_o god_n god_n tempt_v abraham_n after_o these_o thing_n so_o deut_n 13_o 3._o i_o mark_v this_o point_n because_o some_o if_o they_o take_v up_o a_o trial_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o a_o tentation_n they_o think_v it_o their_o duty_n present_o to_o lay_v it_o aside_o it_o be_v true_a if_o it_o lead_v to_o sin_n it_o be_v wisdom_n to_o do_v so_o but_o if_o it_o tend_v to_o discovery_n of_o sin_n or_o grace_n that_o be_v not_o thy_o duty_n i_o shall_v not_o insist_v on_o this_o point_n only_o offer_v three_o character_n how_o you_o may_v discern_v betwixt_o tentation_n from_o god_n and_o from_o satan_n first_o usual_o god_n in_o his_o tentation_n assault_v most_o the_o outward_a man_n some_o duty_n that_o be_v heavy_a to_o the_o flesh_n as_o to_o job_n david_n and_o other_o who_o he_o tempt_v and_o here_o to_o abraham_n it_o be_v true_a satan_n sometime_o assault_v the_o body_n but_o then_o as_o some_o archer_n he_o seem_v to_o look_v one_o way_n and_o shoot_v another_o his_o attempt_n be_v against_o the_o spirit_n principal_o curse_n god_n and_o die_v he_o bark_v only_o at_o the_o outward_a man_n but_o his_o bit_n be_v deep_a as_o in_o peter_n he_o winnow_v he_o that_o he_o may_v deny_v his_o master_n second_o they_o may_v be_v distinguish_v by_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o procedure_n usual_o when_o god_n tempt_v it_o be_v to_o somewhat_o that_o nature_n loathe_v as_o here_o to_o abraham_n to_o offer_v his_o son_n his_o only_a son_n satan_n practic_a divyn_v say_v observe_v what_o way_n the_o tree_n bend_v and_o shak_v it_o that_o way_n suit_v his_o tentation_n to_o our_o inclination_n three_o god_n always_o attain_v his_o end_n that_o he_o tempt_v for_o if_o discovery_n of_o grace_n or_o of_o weakness_n or_o corruption_n or_o what_o else_o satan_n may_v winnow_v as_o he_o do_v peter_n and_o yet_o his_o faith_n not_o fail_v but_o that_o i_o may_v come_v to_o the_o last_o observation_n i_o purpose_v a_o little_a more_o largerly_a to_o insist_v upon_o it_o be_v one_o which_o i_o find_v both_o popish_a and_o protestant_n interpreter_n on_o the_o place_n take_v notice_n of_o partly_o out_o of_o scripture_n and_o partly_o out_o of_o some_o jewish_a doctor_n abraham_n have_v ten_o trial_n before_o as_o to_o forsake_v his_o country_n to_o flee_v again_o and_o again_o to_o aegrpt_v and_o abimelech_n where_o his_o life_n be_v in_o hazard_n he_o have_v controversy_n with_o his_o friend_n as_o with_o lot_n for_o well_n division_n in_o his_o family_n sarah_n and_o hagar_n and_o their_o child_n wrangle_v he_o be_v put_v to_o wrestle_v with_o four_o king_n for_o lot_n and_o many_o such_o yet_o none_o of_o these_o go_v under_o the_o name_n of_o tentation_n till_o it_o come_v to_o this_o the_o offering_z up_o of_o isaac_n than_o god_n tempt_v abraham_n not_o before_o notwithstanding_o of_o all_o these_o trial_n and_o so_o this_o afford_v we_o a_o new_a foundation_n for_o that_o observation_n i_o will_v insist_v a_o little_a upon_o observat_fw-la v._o that_o though_o the_o lord_n often_o exercise_v his_o people_n with_o lesser_a trial_n yet_o be_v usual_o reserve_v some_o great_a one_o for_o they_o that_o may_v be_v full_o call_v a_o tentation_n or_o a_o least_o after_o many_o trial_n one_o may_v be_v reserve_v for_o we_o of_o such_o a_o nature_n it_o be_v often_o god_n way_n by_o lesser_a trial_n to_o ●rt_n we_o for_o great_a i_o deny_v not_o but_o sometime_o he_o will_v measure_v out_o to_o some_o of_o his_o people_n their_o difficulty_n by_o small_a be_v tender_a plant_n a_o flood_n together_o will_v drown_v they_o which_o be_v distil_v by_o drop_n make_v they_o grow_v and_o prosper_v but_o often_o with_o other_o this_o be_v his_o way_n by_o lesser_a trial_n to_o prepare_v they_o for_o great_a revel_v 3_o 10._o i_o will_v keep_v thou_o in_o the_o hour_n of_o tentation_n that_o seem_v to_o relat_n to_o some_o signal_n trial_n which_o by_o a_o special_a designation_n may_v go_v under_o the_o name_n of_o a_o tentation_n i_o will_v not_o go_v to_o search_v after_o reason_n of_o this_o how_o it_o may_v make_v for_o his_o honour_n and_o how_o his_o people_n case_n may_v sometime_o require_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o only_o i_o shall_v inquire_v what_o shall_v be_v the_o ingredient_n of_o which_o a_o trial_n be_v compose_v when_o it_o may_v fit_o be_v denominat_fw-la a_o tentation_n and_o in_o search_v this_o i_o shall_v confine_v myself_o to_o this_o trial_n of_o abraham_n in_o which_o as_o learned_a interpreter_n observe_v there_o be_v a_o threefold_a assault_n on_o abraham_n all_o at_o once_o 1._o on_o his_o faith_n two_o on_o his_o obedience_n three_o on_o his_o love_n to_o his_o near_a relation_n first_o in_o this_o tentation_n abraham_n faith_n be_v assault_v abraham_n have_v receive_v two_o promise_n in_o reference_n to_o isaac_n in_o isaac_n shall_v
