god_n and_o read_v god_n word_n the_o mean_n be_v his_o mean_n under_o his_o authority_n and_o for_o his_o glory_n you_o can_v separate_v god_n and_o they_o when_o man_n speak_v ill_a of_o professor_n

to_o god_n therefore_o they_o be_v call_v god_n worship_n because_o they_o do_v defer_v and_o carry_v worship_n and_o honour_n to_o god_n yea_o the_o great_a honour_n more_o than_o the_o work_n of_o god_n for_o they_o do_v declare_v god_n worth_n more_o than_o his_o work_n more_o clear_o more_o abundant_o and_o they_o do_v work_v more_o deep_a and_o constant_a expression_n of_o god_n honour_n in_o our_o thought_n affection_n word_n and_o action_n than_o the_o work_n of_o god_n that_o which_o convey_v honour_n to_o god_n as_o appoint_v mean_n be_v honourable_a that_o which_o convey_v most_o honour_n to_o god_n be_v most_o honourable_a so_o do_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n therefore_o they_o be_v most_o honourable_a as_o the_o ordinance_n do_v convey_v the_o great_a honour_n to_o god_n so_o they_o convey_v the_o great_a good_a to_o we_o in_o god_n providence_n we_o have_v many_o sweet_a mercy_n which_o we_o can_v not_o want_v as_o health_n estate_n friend_n guidance_n protection_n but_o in_o the_o ordinance_n we_o find_v god_n and_o christ_n and_o eternal_a life_n prov._n 8.34.35_o they_o that_o wait_v at_o the_o gate_n of_o wisdom_n and_o attend_v at_o the_o post_n of_o her_o

and_o especial_o when_o we_o be_v to_o come_v to_o they_o let_v we_o consider_v of_o their_o worth_n make_v present_a our_o knowledge_n by_o meditation_n 2._o to_o increase_v our_o knowledge_n of_o the_o worth_n of_o god_n ordinance_n let_v we_o observe_v and_o remember_v the_o effect_n and_o working_n of_o god_n ordinance_n sometime_o in_o one_o sometim_o be_v in_o another_o our_o heart_n be_v

much_o hear_n and_o use_n of_o private_a mean_n will_v do_v no_o good_a these_o be_v sensible_a argument_n of_o the_o worth_n of_o god_n ordinance_n we_o know_v they_o have_v do_v we_o good_a when_o
