be_v fall_v into_o sin_n continue_v in_o it_o the_o guilt_n and_o power_n of_o it_o remain_v upon_o his_o soul_n and_o he_o excuse_v himself_o with_o the_o smallness_n of_o it_o 5.18_o this_o be_v a_o

the_o pharisy_n say_v adultery_n must_v not_o be_v commit_v but_o i_o say_v say_v christ_n he_o that_o lust_n have_v commit_v adultery_n in_o his_o heart_n they_o say_v you_o must_v not_o swear_v by_o

my_o wrath_n while_o he_o be_v zealous_a for_o my_o sake_n so_o that_o zeal_n turn_v away_o the_o lord_n wrath_n you_o shall_v see_v it_o exemplefy_v in_o elijah_n answer_n to_o the_o lord_n demand_v

and_o you_o may_v know_v it_o by_o the_o contrary_a that_o it_o be_v zeal_n that_o turn_v away_o the_o lord_n wrath_n because_o it_o be_v coldness_n and_o lukewarmenesse_a that_o bring_v on_o his_o

therefore_o the_o mean_n to_o continue_v or_o procure_v his_o favour_n be_v it_o not_o heat_n and_o zeal_n again_o rev._n 2.4_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n fall_v from_o her_o first_o love_n what_o then_o therefore_o i_o will_v come_v against_o thou_o short_o and_o remove_v thy_o candlestick_n then_o to_o abound_v in_o love_n so_o that_o our_o work_n may_v be_v more_o at_o last_o than_o at_o first_o to_o be_v zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o way_n to_o stay_v the_o lord_n among_o we_o and_o to_o continue_v his_o gospel_n of_o peace_n sin_n therefore_o by_o the_o way_n it_o be_v not_o only_o the_o great_a sin_n of_o the_o land_n that_o be_v cause_n of_o god_n wrath_n but_o the_o coldness_n of_o they_o that_o be_v otherwise_o good_a that_o cause_v the_o lord_n to_o remove_v the_o candlestick_n the_o very_a coldness_n of_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n in_o fall_v from_o her_o first_o love_n the_o lukewarmenesse_a of_o the_o laodicean_n the_o lord_n will_v not_o endure_v in_o they_o let_v every_o man_n consider_v this_o be_v his_o zeal_n now_o as_o much_o as_o it_o have_v be_v if_o not_o let_v we_o know_v that_o it_o be_v reckon_v coldness_n and_o lukewarmenesse_a the_o fall_v from_o our_o first_o love_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o bring_v god_n judgement_n on_o a_o nation_n but_o what_o be_v this_o zeal_n zeal_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o intention_n of_o all_o holy_a affection_n and_o action_n i_o will_v go_v no_o further_o than_o this_o text_n to_o show_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o phineas_n be_v zealous_a affection_n that_o be_v he_o not_o only_o do_v the_o thing_n but_o his_o heart_n burn_v within_o he_o with_o zeal_n for_o god._n so_o as_o first_o there_o must_v be_v a_o stir_v up_o of_o affection_n lord_n second_o it_o must_v be_v holy_a it_o must_v be_v for_o the_o lord_n and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o discover_v true_a zeal_n to_o look_v only_o to_o the_o lord_n to_o have_v no_o by-respect_n as_o there_o may_v be_v zeal_n that_o make_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o hea●e_n and_o yet_o it_o come_v from_o the_o earth_n although_o it_o make_v as_o great_a a_o show_n as_o the_o best_a again_o action_n there_o must_v be_v intention_n not_o only_o of_o affection_n but_o also_o of_o action_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v while_o he_o be_v zealous_a for_o my_o sake_n among_o they_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v this_o zeal_n of_o phineas_n be_v not_o keep_v smother_v in_o his_o own_o breast_n but_o it_o brak●_n forth_o into_o action_n he_o do_v something_o for_o the_o lord_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v action_n that_o glorify_v god_n and_o that_o benefit_n man_n only_a action_n stand_v on_o our_o reckon_n for_o you_o know_v god_n judge_v every_o man_n according_a to_o his_o work_n it_o be_v action_n that_o do_v ourselves_o good_a that_o make_v we_o useful_a and_o serviceable_a to_o man_n and_o the_o church_n that_o make_v we_o instrument_n of_o god_n glory_n therefore_o add_v action_n to_o affection_n and_o know_v that_o zeal_n stand_v in_o both_o for_o it_o be_v the_o intention_n of_o holy_a action_n and_o affection_n i_o will_v add_v no_o more_o in_o the_o explication_n but_o will_v brief_o apply_v it_o 1_o and_o first_o if_o it_o be_v zeal_n that_o turn_v away_o the_o lord_n wrath_n zealous_a then_o why_o shall_v we_o discourage_v zeal_n by_o it_o i_o dare_v be_v bold_a to_o say_v the_o city_n stand_v why_o do_v wicked_a man_n cry_v down_o all_o religion_n and_o zeal_n under_o the_o name_n of_o preciseness_n discouragement_n and_o overmuch_o strictness_n of_o life_n walk_v bold_o in_o the_o street_n and_o reckon_v it_o their_o glory_n to_o wound_n god_n through_o the_o side_n of_o man_n so_o that_o they_o make_v those_o that_o bear_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n effect_n ready_a to_o reckon_v that_o their_o shame_n which_o be_v their_o glory_n to_o hang_v down_o the_o wing_n and_o to_o seek_v corner_n to_o hide_v their_o head_n in_o whence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o servant_n of_o christ_n follow_v their_o master_n a_o far_o off_o as_o if_o they_o be_v half_o ashamed_a of_o his_o service_n when_o as_o they_o shall_v wear_v his_o livery_n in_o open_a view_n as_o account_v that_o their_o great_a

cherish_v they_o that_o be_v zealous_a be_v not_o religion_n and_o zeal_n the_o two_o which_o hold_v all_o up_o commonwealth_n be_v they_o not_o the_o pillar_n that_o bear_v up_o the_o church_n and_o

the_o work_n be_v so_o far_o accept_v as_o it_o have_v a_o operation_n on_o our_o heart_n and_o affection_n duty_n it_o be_v so_o in_o every_o duty_n as_o in_o prayer_n when_o you_o call_v on_o god_n in_o private_a do_v god_n regard_v the_o word_n of_o a_o prayer_n no_o but_o '_o its_o work_n on_o your_o heart_n '_o it_o be_v humble_v of_o they_o '_o it_o be_v bring_v of_o they_o into_o frame_n

require_v and_o accept_v in_o our_o performance_n now_o we_o shall_v see_v that_o this_o text_n will_v help_v we_o to_o all_o that_o be_v require_v in_o a_o fast_a as_o will_v appear_v in_o the_o particular_n 1.2_o phineas_n the_o son_n of_o eleazar_n etc._n etc._n in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o the_o chapter_n the_o disease_n be_v set_v down_o wrath_n and_o that_o be_v sin_n which_o be_v indeed_o the_o only_a disease_n of_o the_o soul_n illustrate_v from_o two_o consequent_n first_o from_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n who_o as_o the_o text_n say_v be_v very_o angry_a with_o israel_n for_o they_o have_v commit_v whoredom_n and_o join_v with_o baal-peor_n 3._o that_o be_v the_o disease_n the_o sin_n for_o which_o they_o have_v bring_v on_o they_o god_n wrath_n plague_n and_o second_o from_o a_o effect_n of_o that_o wrath_n the_o plague_n god_n strike_v they_o with_o pestilence_n that_o be_v the_o punishment_n wrath_n in_o this_o verse_n be_v set_v down_o the_o remedy_n and_o that_o be_v the_o turn_v away_o of_o god_n wrath_n for_o as_o the_o physician_n say_v morbi_fw-la curantur_fw-la contrarijs_fw-la so_o it_o be_v true_a in_o divinity_n as_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o plague_n so_o the_o turn_v away_o thereof_o be_v the_o remedy_n this_o turn_v away_o of_o his_o wrath_n be_v set_v forth_o by_o the_o cause_n of_o its_o turn_n away_o reason_n and_o that_o be_v the_o zeal_n of_o phineas_n while_o he_o be_v zealous_a for_o my_o sake_n and_o that_o be_v make_v good_a by_o two_o reason_n one_o be_v in_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o my_o text_n therefore_o have_v i_o not_o consume_v they_o in_o my_o jealousy_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v if_o phineas_n have_v not_o be_v zealous_a my_o jealous_a shall_v have_v burn_v more_o and_o more_o and_o the_o jealousy_n of_o that_o shall_v have_v be_v utter_a destruction_n the_o second_o be_v god_n own_o testimony_n set_v down_o before_o my_o text._n the_o lord_n himself_o say_v unto_o moses_n that_o his_o wrath_n be_v turn_v away_o i_o will_v say_v no_o more_o for_o open_v the_o word_n but_o in_o they_o you_o shall_v see_v these_o five_o point_n lie_v evident_o before_o you_o text_n first_o in_o that_o the_o removal_n of_o the_o plague_n be_v attribute_v to_o god_n and_o to_o the_o turn_v away_o of_o his_o anger_n this_o be_v clear_o deduce_v that_o it_o be_v god_n only_o that_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a for_o you_o see_v his_o anger_n bring_v the_o plague_n on_o they_o and_o the_o turn_n away_o of_o his_o anger_n heal_v they_o again_o second_o it_o be_v sin_n that_o cause_v god_n anger_n anger_n in_o god_n have_v always_o relation_n to_o sin_n for_o sin_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o three_o the_o way_n to_o turn_v away_o the_o lord_n anger_n be_v zeal_n for_o his_o sake_n four_o if_o there_o be_v want_n of_o this_o zeal_n among_o we_o his_o jealousy_n shall_v grow_v hot_a and_o hot_a it_o shall_v increase_v upon_o we_o more_o and_o more_o five_o and_o last_o the_o issue_n of_o this_o jealousy_n of_o he_o will_v be_v utter_a destruction_n we_o will_v begin_v with_o the_o first_o point_n which_o be_v that_o it_o be_v god_n only_o evil_a that_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a to_o every_o nation_n to_o every_o church_n and_o kingdom_n yea_o to_o every_o particular_a person_n as_o you_o see_v here_o it_o be_v not_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o air_n that_o bring_v the_o plague_n nor_o the_o clear_n of_o it_o with_o frost_n and_o wind_n that_o turn_v it_o away_o but_o the_o cloud_n of_o the_o lord_n wrath_n shed_v this_o storm_n on_o they_o and_o when_o he_o be_v appease_v with_o they_o there_o follow_v health_n and_o peace_n the_o lord_n wound_n and_o the_o lord_n heal_v for_o what_o be_v the_o plague_n but_o a_o sword_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o angel_n who_o draw_v it_o out_o and_o put_v it_o into_o its_o sheath_n again_o at_o his_o master_n appointment_n and_o be_v not_o there_o the_o same_o reason_n of_o all_o other_o evil_n war_n you_o know_v be_v a_o terrible_a thing_n when_o enemy_n come_v as_o bee_n on_o a_o land_n but_o do_v not_o the_o lord_n hiss_v for_o they_o and_o again_o they_o be_v drive_v away_o as_o with_o a_o breath_n at_o his_o appointment_n famine_n be_v a_o lean_a devour_a evil_a which_o cause_v the_o land_n to_o eat_v up_o the_o inhabitant_n thereof_o but_o be_v not_o the_o lord_n the_o only_a cause_n of_o it_o do_v not_o he_o make_v the_o heaven_n as_o brass_n and_o the_o earth_n as_o iron_n do_v not_o he_o when_o he_o will_v open_v the_o window_n of_o heaven_n and_o unstop_v the_o bottle_n of_o the_o cloud_n and_o power_n outraine_v unreasonable_o and_o be_v not_o he_o the_o cause_n of_o death_n which_o be_v the_o journey_n end_n of_o both_o the_o former_a to_o which_o every_o one_o of_o we_o be_v subject_a yet_o we_o consider_v it_o not_o though_o we_o see_v man_n fall_v from_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n every_o moment_n yet_o we_o regard_v it_o not_o this_o the_o lord_n take_v only_o to_o himself_o psal._n 68.20_o to_o the_o lord_n belong_v the_o issue_n from_o death_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o give_v to_o the_o lord_n this_o great_a prerogative_n of_o he_o that_o he_o only_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a and_o let_v no_o man_n question_v it_o you_o will_v say_v who_o do_v question_v it_o it_o be_v very_o true_a we_o do_v not_o question_v it_o in_o word_n but_o if_o we_o question_v it_o in_o our_o deed_n it_o be_v a_o argument_n that_o our_o heart_n make_v a_o doubt_n of_o it_o though_o our_o tongue_n do_v not_o question_v it_o therefore_o let_v we_o examine_v the_o matter_n if_o we_o think_v the_o lord_n only_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a point_n why_o then_o will_v not_o we_o obey_v he_o and_o serve_v he_o and_o please_v he_o in_o all_o thing_n but_o provoke_v he_o to_o anger_n by_o our_o word_n and_o by_o our_o work_n as_o the_o prophet_n speak_v perhaps_o you_o will_v say_v to_o i_o sin_v as_o saul_n answer_v samuel_n when_o he_o come_v from_o the_o war_n

for_o frequency_n though_o the_o great_a exceed_v they_o in_o that_o they_o take_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o vain_a again_o what_o mean_v the_o breach_n of_o the_o sabbath_n of_o which_o i_o will_v
