exceed_o precious_a such_o be_v the_o time_n of_o noah_n in_o the_o time_n in_o which_o noah_n live_v the_o whole_a world_n be_v corrupt_v and_o the_o whole_a earth_n be_v fill_v with_o violence_n

you_o have_v say_v it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o serve_v the_o lord_n and_o what_o profit_n be_v it_o that_o we_o have_v keep_v his_o ordinance_n and_o that_o we_o have_v walk_v mournful_o before_o the_o

which_o elijah_n live_v it_o be_v a_o time_n of_o great_a persecution_n jezebel_n have_v slay_v all_o the_o lord_n prophet_n there_o be_v none_o in_o all_o the_o land_n dare_v appear_v for_o god_n

of_o philadelphia_n because_o she_o stand_v it_o out_o in_o evil_a time_n because_o thou_o have_v keep_v the_o word_n of_o my_o patience_n thou_o have_v keep_v my_o word_n with_o patience_n thou_o have_v keep_v my_o truth_n notwithstanding_o all_o the_o opposition_n thou_o have_v meet_v with_o that_o truth_n which_o be_v most_o oppose_v that_o truth_n which_o be_v most_o persecute_v that_o

therefore_o i_o will_v keep_v thou_o in_o the_o hour_n of_o temptation_n that_o be_v come_v upon_o the_o world_n 3._o three_o time_n of_o temptation_n be_v evil_a time_n and_o then_o to_o walk_v close_o with_o god_n be_v acceptable_a when_o satan_n himself_o or_o by_o his_o instrument_n shall_v endeavour_v to_o beat_v soul_n from_o their_o stand_n when_o he_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o turn_v they_o aside_o from_o god_n then_o to_o hold_v fast_o be_v take_v exceed_v well_o it_o be_v the_o great_a design_n of_o the_o devil_n by_o himself_o or_o wicked_a man_n thus_o to_o strike_v at_o god_n people_n what_o do_v you_o get_v by_o your_o close_a walk_v with_o god_n why_o you_o get_v nothing_o but_o blow_n nothing_o but_o stripe_n and_o you_o be_v afflict_v more_o than_o any_o it_o be_v never_o worse_o with_o you_o than_o since_o you_o begin_v to_o follow_v hard_o after_o god_n this_o be_v satan_n temptation_n and_o now_o to_o hold_v fast_o be_v very_o acceptable_a thus_o it_o be_v with_o job_n job_n 2._o 9_o the_o devil_n tempt_v he_o by_o his_o wife_n say_v she_o to_o he_o do_v thou_o still_o retain_v thy_o integrity_n curse_v god_n and_o die_v do_v thou_o still_o retain_v thy_o integrity_n what_o will_v thou_o still_o walk_v with_o god_n what_o have_v thou_o get_v by_o walk_v with_o he_o thou_o see_v how_o sad_a a_o condition_n thou_o be_v bring_v into_o i_o will_v never_o follow_v that_o god_n any_o long_o i_o will_v curse_v he_o and_o die_v it_o be_v a_o sore_a temptation_n but_o job_n still_o stand_v in_o his_o integrity_n thou_o speak_v like_o one_o of_o the_o foolish_a woman_n shall_v we_o receive_v good_a at_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o shall_v not_o we_o receive_v evil_a thou_o speak_v like_o one_o of_o the_o foolish_a woman_n but_o again_o 4._o four_o time_n of_o affliction_n be_v time_n of_o trial_n and_o then_o it_o be_v most_o acceptable_a for_o saint_n to_o walk_v with_o god_n time_n of_o affliction_n when_o god_n seem_v to_o frown_v and_o god_n stretch_v his_o hand_n out_o against_o his_o own_o people_n for_o they_o yet_o to_o pursue_v after_o god_n in_o their_o spirit_n this_o be_v very_o acceptable_a to_o run_v to_o god_n when_o god_n seem_v to_o smite_v they_o to_o run_v into_o his_o arm_n when_o they_o see_v he_o be_v angry_a to_o run_v under_o his_o shadow_n when_o god_n seem_v to_o beat_v they_o sore_o why_o this_o be_v very_o please_v unto_o god_n thus_o it_o be_v with_o job_n though_o god_n stretch_v out_o his_o hand_n against_o he_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o stretch_v out_o his_o hand_n to_o iniquity_n but_o still_o he_o keep_v his_o integrity_n he_o be_v in_o a_o sad_a condition_n he_o be_v strip_v naked_a of_o all_o he_o have_v in_o the_o world_n as_o you_o read_v in_o job_n 1._o 21._o and_o though_o god_n make_v he_o naked_a he_o will_v walk_v with_o god_n though_o god_n lay_v he_o naked_a destitute_a of_o all_o comfort_n he_o bless_v the_o name_n of_o god_n when_o all_o be_v take_v from_o he_o and_o it_o be_v say_v in_o all_o this_o job_n sin_v not_o nor_o charge_v god_n foolish_o that_o be_v the_o four_o evil_a time_n in_o which_o walk_v with_o god_n be_v acceptable_a but_o i_o shall_v speak_v most_o to_o the_o first_o of_o these_o because_o that_o concern_v enoch_n most_o viz._n time_n of_o general_a corruption_n time_n of_o decline_a time_n of_o apostasy_n then_o to_o walk_v with_o god_n be_v exceed_o acceptable_a quest_n then_o what_o be_v it_o to_o walk_v with_o god_n in_o corrupt_a time_n or_o when_o do_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n walk_v with_o he_o in_o corrupt_a time_n answ_n 1._o i_o answer_v first_o of_o all_o when_o they_o embrace_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o time_n those_o truth_n that_o be_v most_o oppose_v when_o they_o shall_v countenance_v those_o truth_n that_o be_v most_o discountenance_v when_o they_o will_v not_o shut_v out_o the_o light_n the_o truth_n that_o god_n hold_v forth_o in_o their_o generation_n though_o the_o truth_n cost_v they_o dear_a though_o they_o must_v buy_v it_o though_o they_o suffer_v the_o loss_n of_o all_o for_o the_o truth_n though_o it_o cost_v they_o the_o loss_n of_o their_o comfort_n the_o loss_n of_o their_o good_a name_n the_o loss_n of_o their_o friend_n the_o loss_n of_o estate_n yet_o it_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o christ_n and_o it_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o time_n when_o god_n shall_v thus_o cause_v his_o servant_n to_o embrace_v those_o scorn_v persecute_a and_o oppose_v truth_n of_o the_o time_n in_o which_o they_o live_v as_o every_o age_n have_v its_o special_a truth_n wherein_o they_o be_v to_o walk_v with_o god_n in_o a_o corrupt_a generation_n but_o again_o 2._o second_o to_o walk_v with_o god_n in_o a_o corrupt_a generation_n be_v to_o practice_v those_o way_n of_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n and_o to_o show_v forth_o those_o grace_n which_o be_v most_o contrary_a to_o the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o time_n this_o be_v walk_v with_o god_n
in_o a_o corrupt_a time_n i_o say_v to_o practice_v those_o way_n of_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n and_o hold_v forth_o those_o grace_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o time_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v job_n great_a commendation_n that_o he_o be_v upright_o that_o he_o be_v a_o upright_a man_n in_o a_o crooked_a generation_n he_o live_v among_o a_o crooked_a people_n and_o it_o be_v the_o great_a commendation_n of_o noah_n that_o he_o practise_v righteousness_n it_o be_v say_v he_o be_v a_o just_a man_n when_o the_o world_n be_v most_o unjust_a it_o be_v say_v the_o earth_n be_v fill_v with_o violence_n there_o be_v no_o righteousness_n in_o noah_n day_n and_o then_o noah_n be_v a_o just_a man_n he_o be_v a_o lover_n of_o justice_n and_o righteousness_n he_o be_v a_o follower_n of_o it_o a_o pattern_n at_o that_o time_n when_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o unjustness_n and_o violence_n in_o those_o time_n and_o thus_o to_o walk_v with_o god_n in_o a_o corrupt_a time_n be_v very_o please_a and_o acceptable_a but_o again_o 3._o three_o to_o walk_v with_o god_n in_o a_o corrupt_a time_n be_v then_o when_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n shall_v stir_v up_o other_o to_o cleave_v close_o to_o god_n at_o that_o time_n this_o be_v part_n of_o their_o service_n at_o such_o time_n to_o endeavour_v to_o strengthen_v and_o to_o hold_v up_o the_o hand_n and_o the_o heart_n of_o one_o another_o in_o decline_v and_o sinful_a time_n you_o may_v remember_v the_o place_n before_o mal._n 3._o 16._o then_o they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n speak_v often_o one_o to_o another_o when_o the_o time_n be_v woeful_o corrupt_v this_o be_v the_o service_n of_o that_o generation_n than_o they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n speak_v often_o one_o to_o another_o they_o speak_v word_n of_o encouragement_n to_o strengthen_v one_o another_o that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v dismay_v that_o they_o may_v go_v on_o with_o boldness_n in_o profess_v the_o name_n and_o truth_n of_o jesus_n christ_n notwithstanding_o all_o opposition_n 4._o again_o four_o when_o the_o saint_n shall_v rest_v upon_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n which_o seem_v to_o be_v far_o off_o this_o be_v part_n of_o their_o walk_n with_o god_n in_o a_o evil_a time_n i_o say_v then_o to_o act_v faith_n in_o the_o promise_n which_o seem_v to_o be_v far_o off_o when_o you_o see_v nothing_o but_o corruption_n nothing_o but_o darkness_n yet_o even_o then_o to_o look_v to_o the_o promise_n of_o life_n and_o holiness_n and_o grace_n which_o shall_v be_v give_v out_o and_o shall_v be_v fulfil_v when_o there_o be_v little_a or_o no_o knowledge_n of_o god_n then_o to_o close_v with_o the_o promise_n that_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v full_a of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o the_o water_n cover_v the_o sea_n so_o the_o promise_n that_o god_n have_v make_v to_o roll_n away_o the_o reproach_n of_o his_o servant_n when_o they_o meet_v with_o nothing_o but_o reproach_n from_o man_n then_o to_o look_v upon_o the_o promise_n that_o he_o will_v roll_n away_o their_o reproach_n and_o cause_v their_o righteousness_n to_o break_v forth_o as_o the_o sun_n at_o noonday_n that_o be_v another_o again_o 5._o five_o when_o they_o shall_v vindicate_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n though_o never_o so_o seem_o cross_a unto_o promise_n and_o so_o clear_a all_o dispensation_n of_o god_n both_o to_o the_o righteous_a and_o the_o wicked_a and_o though_o he_o suffer_v the_o righteous_a to_o be_v tread_v underfoot_n yet_o they_o shall_v then_o vindicate_v god_n in_o his_o dispensation_n and_o say_v that_o the_o lord_n be_v good_a and_o righteous_a and_o just_a and_o there_o be_v no_o iniquity_n in_o he_o there_o be_v a_o time_n a_o come_n when_o he_o shall_v clear_v up_o this_o truth_n and_o they_o shall_v discern_v between_o the_o righteous_a and_o the_o wicked_a there_o be_v a_o time_n a_o come_n when_o it_o shall_v be_v say_v very_o there_o be_v a_o reward_n for_o the_o righteous_a there_o be_v a_o reward_n for_o the_o just_a of_o the_o earth_n they_o shall_v vindicate_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o the_o wicked_a behold_v the_o lord_n come_v with_o ten_o thousand_o of_o his_o saint_n to_o execute_v judgement_n upon_o all_o there_o be_v a_o day_n of_o reckon_v come_v when_o the_o wicked_a shall_v pay_v for_o all_o this_o he_o resolve_v on_o and_o this_o be_v a_o second_o part_n of_o that_o service_n viz._n what_o it_o be_v to_o walk_v with_o god_n in_o evil_a time_n but_o 3._o three_o it_o be_v exceed_v please_a to_o god_n that_o his_o servant_n thus_o shall_v walk_v and_o stick_v close_o to_o he_o in_o evil_a time_n i_o shall_v look_v no_o further_o than_o that_o of_o the_o prophet_n malachi_n mal._n 4._o 16._o which_o we_o before_o speak_v of_o then_o they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n speak_v often_o one_o to_o another_o and_o the_o lord_n hearken_v and_o hear_v and_o then_o a_o book_n of_o remembrance_n be_v set_v before_o they_o for_o they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o think_v upon_o his_o name_n you_o may_v see_v the_o lord_n be_v exceed_a intent_n upon_o his_o servant_n that_o walk_v close_o with_o he_o in_o evil_a time_n he_o do_v eye_n they_o and_o his_o ear_n be_v towards_o they_o he_o listen_v to_o every_o word_n they_o speak_v they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n speak_v often_o one_o to_o another_o and_o it_o be_v say_v there_o the_o lord_n hearken_v and_o hear_v the_o lord_n hearken_v he_o do_v as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v listen_v to_o hear_v what_o his_o servant_n shall_v say_v one_o unto_o another_o they_o have_v other_o listener_n its_o like_a in_o that_o evil_a time_n the_o wicked_a hearken_v and_o listen_v that_o they_o may_v trap_v they_o ay_o but_o god_n listen_v for_o another_o end_n he_o hearken_v and_o hear_v and_o a_o book_n of_o remembrance_n be_v write_v before_o they_o there_o be_v another_o particular_a which_o do_v declare_v how_o acceptable_a it_o be_v to_o god_n that_o they_o walk_v before_o he_o in_o evil_a time_n a_o book_n of_o remembrance_n be_v set_v before_o they_o while_o they_o speak_v god_n write_v and_o take_v notice_n of_o what_o they_o say_v a_o book_n of_o remembrance_n he_o write_v a_o book_n of_o chronicle_n that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v forget_v what_o they_o speak_v of_o god_n and_o one_o to_o another_o a_o allusion_n to_o the_o custom_n of_o prince_n that_o they_o have_v their_o book_n in_o which_o they_o write_v what_o any_o man_n do_v for_o they_o what_o good_a service_n they_o have_v do_v for_o the_o state_n as_o mordecai_n good_a service_n be_v write_v in_o a_o book_n the_o king_n call_v for_o the_o book_n in_o which_o the_o service_n of_o mordecai_n be_v write_v so_o the_o lord_n look_v in_o his_o book_n a_o book_n of_o remembrance_n be_v write_v but_o again_o further_n a_o book_n be_v write_v for_o they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o think_v upon_o his_o name_n nothing_o that_o they_o do_v for_o god_n and_o speak_v of_o god_n and_o think_v of_o god_n there_o be_v nothing_o shall_v be_v lose_v it_o be_v a_o evil_a time_n and_o it_o may_v be_v they_o dare_v not_o speak_v all_o their_o thought_n yet_o all_o their_o good_a thought_n be_v take_v notice_n of_o by_o the_o lord_n they_o be_v not_o let_v go_v but_o set_v down_o in_o his_o book_n even_o their_o thought_n be_v write_v down_o god_n will_v write_v they_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v forget_v oh_o i_o remember_v the_o kindness_n of_o thy_o youth_n jer._n 2._o 2._o and_o the_o love_n of_o thy_o espousal_n when_o thou_o follow_v i_o in_o the_o wilderness_n to_o follow_v god_n alone_o in_o a_o wilderness_n when_o there_o be_v little_a or_o no_o company_n god_n take_v this_o as_o a_o special_a respect_n and_o kindness_n but_o why_o do_v god_n take_v notice_n of_o his_o people_n in_o special_a who_o walk_v most_o close_o with_o he_o in_o evil_a time_n 1._o first_o of_o all_o i_o answer_v brief_o it_o discover_v that_o the_o very_a life_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n be_v in_o that_o soul_n god_n rejoice_v in_o the_o image_n of_o his_o life_n which_o he_o behold_v in_o his_o child_n it_o be_v a_o argument_n that_o the_o fish_n have_v life_n when_o it_o swim_v against_o the_o stream_n the_o dead_a fish_n that_o be_v carry_v down_o the_o stream_n it_o can_v make_v any_o resistance_n it_o be_v a_o argument_n the_o life_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o that_o soul_n that_o be_v enable_v to_o walk_v with_o god_n in_o evil_a time_n to_o go_v against_o the_o stream_n of_o corruption_n and_o looseness_n 2._o second_o again_o as_o it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o life_n so_o it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o strength_n that_o soul_n have_v get_v much_o strength_n from_o god_n
