to_o see_v how_o other_o have_v be_v affect_v with_o the_o inordinate_a affection_n that_o we_o have_v be_v in_o ourselves_o and_o example_n do_v r●nne_v more_o into_o the_o sense_n than_o rule_n do_v therefore_o think_v of_o example_n to_o stir_v up_o affection_n either_o to_o cross_v they_o or_o subdue_v they_o we_o see_v by_o the_o read_n of_o history_n as_o of_o the_o valiant_a act_n of_o

in_o they_o lie_v to_o do_v the_o like_a so_o that_o example_n of_o other_o be_v very_o effectual_a in_o this_o kind_n if_o a_o man_n will_v consider_v paul_n how_o he_o carry_v himself_o in_o the_o

such_o as_o we_o have_v hear_v of_o to_o be_v holy_a and_o righteous_a man_n or_o such_o as_o we_o now_o know_v to_o be_v such_o be_v a_o great_a help_n to_o rectify_v the_o affection_n and_o to_o set_v the_o judgement_n straight_o the_o second_o cause_n of_o inordinate_a affection_n be_v weakness_n 2._o and_o impotency_n which_o do_v stick_v in_o a_o man_n ever_o since_o the_o fall_n of_o

be_v weak_a he_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o strong_a in_o passion_n and_o as_o his_o strength_n be_v more_o so_o have_v he_o more_o strength_n to_o resist_v they_o the_o way_n to_o remedy_v remedy_n this_o be_v to_o gather_v strength_n the_o more_o strength_n we_o have_v the_o more_o able_a we_o be_v to_o resist_v temptation_n and_o as_o a_o man_n be_v weak_a so_o he_o be_v the_o more_o subject_a unto_o they_o as_o when_o he_o be_v young_a but_o strength_n over-master_n they_o affection_n be_v in_o a_o man_n as_o humour_n be_v simile_n in_o a_o body_n when_o the_o body_n be_v in_o

strength_n now_o the_o mean_n to_o get_v strength_n against_o passion_n be_v to_o get_v a_o great_a measure_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o more_o spirit_n the_o more_o strength_n ephes._n 3._o 16._o

in_o affection_n they_o have_v a_o thousand_o way_n to_o draw_v to_o inordinatenesse_n man_n run_v up_o and_o down_o with_o their_o affection_n upon_o uncertainty_n and_o they_o never_o cast_v how_o to_o shun_v they_o afterward_o till_o the_o end_n of_o their_o day_n be_v run_v out_o now_o to_o remedy_v this_o remedy_n our_o way_n be_v to_o find_v out_o the_o right_a object_n whereon_o the_o affection_n shall_v be_v pitch_v and_o this_o object_n be_v god_n god_n that_o be_v the_o affection_n must_v all_o look_v towards_o god_n and_o have_v they_o fix_v upon_o he_o you_o be_v never_o

every_o man_n till_o his_o heart_n be_v set_v upon_o god_n his_o affection_n be_v wander_v up_o and_o down_o but_o when_o a_o man_n have_v god_n to_o set_v his_o affection_n on_o and_o they_o be_v once_o settle_v in_o he_o than_o he_o seek_v another_o kind_n of_o excellency_n and_o frame_v his_o life_n after_o another_o fashion_n he_o set_v his_o affection_n upon_o other_o excellency_n as_o when_o a_o man_n have_v a_o palace_n for_o to_o build_v if_o his_o mind_n simil●_n be_v to_o have_v it_o do_v with_o excellent_a workmanship_a than_o he_o will_v take_v none_o but_o principal_a

world_n nor_o their_o affection_n to_o be_v draw_v away_o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o he_o chastise_v every_o son_n who_o he_o do_v receive_v that_o be_v if_o a_o man_n or_o a_o woman_n do_v belong_v unto_o god_n they_o shall_v be_v sure_a of_o sorrow_n and_o affliction_n and_o these_o be_v send_v unto_o they_o to_o wean_v they_o from_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n to_o

if_o they_o be_v wicked_a man_n and_o do_v not_o belong_v wicked_a unto_o god_n yet_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o sweetness_n in_o they_o for_o if_o he_o be_v not_o regenerate_v outward_a thing_n be_v

peace_n of_o conscience_n which_o proceed_v from_o grace_n now_o howsoever_o worldly_a man_n may_v seem_v to_o the_o world_n to_o have_v true_a content_n and_o to_o be_v fill_v with_o joy_n yet_o the_o truth_n be_v it_o be_v a_o sick_a joy_n for_o their_o conscience_n be_v ever_o accuse_v of_o they_o and_o they_o be_v in_o a_o continual_a fear_n that_o they_o shall_v lose_v one_o another_o

out_o mindedness_n of_o the_o heart_n the_o fear_n of_o god_n in_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n now_o where_o god_n fear_v be_v not_o god_n grace_n will_v not_o help_v that_o man_n but_o this_o be_v not_o

with_o they_o here_o it_o be_v because_o their_o judgement_n may_v be_v the_o great_a that_o when_o they_o have_v heap_v up_o the_o measure_n of_o their_o sin_n than_o god_n will_v heap_v up_o the_o measure_n of_o their_o punishment_n and_o the_o measure_n of_o his_o wrath_n to_o press_v they_o down_o unto_o hell_n now_o what_o if_o god_n defer_v the_o execution_n of_o judgement_n it_o be_v not_o because_o there_o be_v any_o slackness_n in_o god_n as_o if_o he_o do_v not_o regard_v they_o but_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o it_o be_v his_o patience_n 1_o pet._n 3._o 20._o he_o take_v notice_n

to_o leave_v their_o earthly_a mindedness_n be_v because_o if_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v they_o earthly_a mind_v they_o can_v be_v save_v and_o who_o be_v there_o among_o we_o that_o will_v not_o

to_o such_o a_o desire_n for_o the_o apostle_n say_v he_o that_o have_v this_o hope_n purge_v himself_o that_o be_v he_o will_v take_v spiritual_a physic_n the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o

there_o be_v a_o necessity_n lay_v upon_o every_o man_n to_o be_v heavenly_a mind_v for_o so_o our_o saviour_n say_v mat._n 6._o 24._o no_o man_n can_v serve_v 24._o two_o master_n he_o can_v serve_v

again_o two_o contrary_n in_o nature_n can_v stand_v together_o now_o there_o be_v nothing_o so_o contrary_a as_o god_n and_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v if_o any_o man_n
