than_o he_o can_v do_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o regenerate_a man_n be_v able_a to_o do_v more_o than_o he_o can_v do_v in_o these_o two_o particular_n 1._o first_o he_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v any_o duty_n or_o any_o thing_n 1_o god_n command_v according_a to_o the_o proportion_n of_o grace_n man_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v but_o if_o the_o duty_n or_o thing_n exceed_v the_o grace_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v than_o he_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o a_o extraordinary_a help_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o he_o can_v not_o do_v this_o before_o neither_o be_v it_o in_o the_o power_n of_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n to_o do_v it_o second_o he_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v any_o temptation_n or_o sin_n 2_o if_o it_o be_v not_o great_a or_o above_o the_o measure_n of_o grace_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v if_o it_o be_v a_o temptation_n of_o distrust_n or_o impatiency_n or_o presumption_n if_o it_o exceed_v not_o the_o measure_n of_o grace_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v he_o be_v able_a to_o put_v it_o to_o flight_n but_o if_o it_o do_v exceed_v than_o he_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o a_o extraordinary_a help_n of_o the_o spirit_n now_o the_o unregenerate_a man_n have_v no_o power_n to_o resist_v sin_n or_o temptation_n in_o this_o case_n but_o you_o will_v say_v again_o that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o power_n in_o the_o regenerate_a man_n for_o the_o apostle_n say_v gal._n 5._o 17._o 2._o the_o flesh_n lust_v against_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o spirit_n against_o 17._o the_o flesh_n and_o these_o be_v contrary_a one_o to_o the_o other_o so_o that_o you_o can_v do_v the_o thing_n that_o you_o will_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a that_o in_o the_o most_o sanctify_a man_n thatis_o there_o be_v corruption_n and_o this_o corruption_n 2._o will_v fight_v against_o the_o spirit_n and_o may_v sometime_o hinder_v good_a but_o it_o be_v then_o when_o it_o exceed_v the_o measure_n of_o grace_n he_o have_v receive_v neither_o be_v it_o always_o prevail_v in_o this_o kind_n for_o when_o it_o exceed_v not_o the_o grace_n the_o spirit_n overcome_v it_o neither_o do_v it_o always_o continue_v it_o may_v be_v in_o the_o heart_n but_o it_o can_v reign_v in_o the_o heart_n it_o may_v be_v in_o the_o heart_n as_o a_o thief_n in_o a_o house_n not_o to_o have_v residence_n and_o a_o dwell_a place_n but_o for_o a_o night_n and_o be_v go_v so_o this_o lust_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o regenerate_a man_n dwell_v not_o there_o that_o be_v it_o do_v not_o always_o hinder_v he_o from_o good_a but_o for_o a_o time_n and_o then_o depart_v but_o it_o be_v not_o thus_o with_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n sin_n take_v possession_n and_o keep_v possession_n of_o his_o heart_n the_o three_o consectary_n or_o use_n stand_v thus_o see_v the_o apostle_n say_v mortify_v that_o be_v do_v not_o only_o abstain_v from_o the_o 3_o outward_a action_n of_o sin_n but_o from_o the_o thought_n of_o the_o heart_n for_o mortification_n be_v a_o slay_v of_o the_o evil_a disposition_n of_o the_o heart_n aswell_o as_o the_o slay_v of_o the_o action_n of_o the_o body_n mortification_n be_v first_o inward_a and_o then_o outward_a hence_o we_o gather_v this_o point_n that_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a for_o a_o man_n to_o abstain_v from_o the_o action_n heart_n of_o sin_n but_o he_o must_v abstain_v from_o sin_n in_o his_o heart_n if_o he_o will_v prove_v his_o mortification_n to_o be_v true_a 2_o pet._n 2._o 14._o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o their_o eye_n be_v fullof_o adultery_n now_o lust_n be_v not_o in_o the_o eye_n but_o in_o the_o heart_n but_o by_o this_o he_o fhewe_v that_o it_o be_v the_o fullness_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o heart_n that_o fill_v the_o eye_n therefore_o look_v unto_o the_o heart_n for_o the_o action_n be_v but_o the_o

remove_v the_o effect_n you_o must_v first_o remove_v the_o cause_n now_o the_o cause_n if_o it_o bring_v forth_o a_o evil_a effect_n be_v the_o great_a evil_n as_o the_o cause_n of_o good_a be_v great_a than_o the_o effect_n it_o produce_v even_o so_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o heart_n because_o it_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o evil_a action_n be_v great_a than_o the_o evil_a that_o it_o produce_v then_o think_v not_o with_o you_o self_n that_o if_o you_o abstain_v from_o the_o outward_a gross_a action_n of_o sin_n that_o sin_n be_v mortify_v in_o you_o but_o go_v first_o unto_o the_o cause_n and_o see_v whether_o that_o evil_a disposition_n of_o the_o heart_n be_v mortify_v whether_o there_o be_v wrought_v in_o you_o a_o new_a disposition_n to_o good_a and_o a_o wither_a of_o all_o inordinate_a affection_n but_o you_o will_v say_v unto_o i_o our_o saviour_n say_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v judge_v by_o his_o work_n and_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v

or_o the_o evil_a that_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n so_o that_o he_o will_v judge_v the_o heart_n first_o as_o the_o cause_n and_o then_o the_o action_n as_o the_o effect_n rom._n 8._o 27._o it_o be_v

unregenerate_a part_n now_o as_o the_o sap_n be_v great_a in_o the_o root_n than_o in_o the_o branch_n so_o the_o great_a sin_n be_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o therefore_o it_o shall_v receive_v great_a

already_o hence_o we_o note_v this_o point_n that_o no_o man_n be_v so_o holy_a or_o sanctify_a but_o he_o have_v need_v still_o to_o be_v exhort_v to_o mortification_n mortification_n for_o howsoever_o it_o be_v true_a that_o in_o the_o regenerate_a sin_n have_v receive_v a_o deadly_a wound_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o so_o kill_v but_o there_o be_v still_o sap_n in_o the_o root_n from_o whence_o spring_v many_o branch_n and_o therefore_o have_v need_n of_o continual_a mortification_n because_o the_o flesh_n will_v still_o lust_n against_o the_o spirit_n and_o although_o there_o be_v
