Worldly joy is naturall this joy is spirituall 2 Worldly joy ariseth from externall things this joy ariseth from God love remission of sinne assurance of life everlasting 3. Worldly joy makes men secure this joy maketh a man serve God more earnestly and perfectly 4. Worldly joy fadeth in adversity this joy makes us rejoyce in tribulation under the hope of salvation Rom. 5.3 I never felt this joy in mée may some object and yet I hope I am as good a Christian as others Ans If it bée hidden it is hidden to them that are lost This is Abscondita Manna hidden Manna Revel 2.17 It is onely knowne to them that injoy it and to them that are elected It is Gods owne wine laid up in Gods owne Cellers for Gods owne Spouse the wicked of the World shall never lick their lipps of it 1. O let us begge of God for this joy this joy is Heaven upon Earth this joy is the earnest of our Heavenly inheritance this joy is the injoyment of Gods backparts this joy if it bee perfited in us is no lesse than life everlasting Davids suite above all other was for this ioy Psal 4. The greater sort crave worldly goods and riches doe imbrace but Lord shew mee thy countenance thy favour and thy grace For thou thereby shalt make my heart more ioyfull and more glad than they that of their Corne and Wine full great increase have had Thus Moses prayed upon the Mount Exod. 33.18 Lord shew mée thy glory The Lord grant us this ioy unspeakeable and glorious which the world can neither give nor take away Ioh. 16.22 This your ioyshall no man take from you that wée tasting of the Heavenly comforts in the way may enter into our Masters ioy in the end with that blessed welcome enter thou into the ioy of the Lord. Vse 2 2. Hée that hath tasted in any measure of this Heavenly Nectar let him blesse GOD for these comforts for these reioycings are given but to few LORD what is man that thus thou shouldst reioyce him or the best of the sonnes of men that thus in mercy thou shouldst ioy them Vse 3 3. No life so comfortable as the Christian life it is full of peace and ioy there is never an holy duety holy performed but brings meate in the mouth with it ioy unspeakeable When wée pray how are our soules refreshed When wée preach and heare the holy Word of GOD our hearts many times leape in our bellies for ioy The worldling thinkes otherwise of it It is true to respect the outward condition of a Christian it is very miserable therefore Paul saith 1. Cor. 15.19 If in this life onely wee had our hope and our hap of all men Christians were most miserable But to respect the inward estate of a Christian it is most ioyfull and comfortable The sufferings of this life are not worthy of the ioyes that are here and in Heaven prepared for us There is ioyntly ioy and iointly sorrow in every Christian sorrow uppon sinnes commission but ioy upon sinnes remission sorrow because by our sinnes wée have killed Christ but ioy because by his stripes wée are healed Heb. 12.11 There is no afliction but is grievous There is the part of sorrow but it brings the quiet fruit of righteousnesse There is the part of ioy and gladnesse The Kingdome of God is joy in the holy Ghost Vse 4 4. If the estate of a Christian bee so ioyous then surely the condition of the wicked is restlesss and terrible horrour attends the wicked conscience here and hell hereafter The very wicked in Hell confesse no lesse Wisedome 5 Wée have wearied our selves in the wayes of wickednesse wée have gone dangerous wayes the way of peace wée have not knowne What hath pride proffited us or what hath the pompe of riches done us good The Lord grant that wée may fly all sinne and wickednesse for there is no peace to the wicked saith the Lord.
