18.8_o and_o it_o bear_v upon_o this_o notion_n that_o i_o now_o hint_n it_o be_v say_v of_o babylon_n that_o all_o her_o plague_n shall_v come_v upon_o she_o in_o one_o day_n etc._n etc._n in_o one_o day_n why_o the_o intire_a of_o pride_n and_o honour_n idolatry_n and_o persecution_n that_o so_o many_o age_n be_v wind_v up_o to_o a_o height_n can_v this_o be_v destroy_v in_o so_o little_a time_n shall_v this_o be_v do_v in_o one_o day_n yes_o for_o strong_a in_o the_o lord_n god_n who_o judge_v she_o a_o great_a god_n be_v never_o confine_v to_o any_o time_n oh_o my_o beloved_n bear_v up_o your_o heart_n in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n time_n can_v no_o way_n prescribe_v he_o he_o can_v do_v what_o he_o will_v and_o when_o he_o will_n but_o there_o be_v one_o general_a point_n that_o i_o shall_v take_v up_o from_o the_o place_n and_o end_v this_o discourse_n and_o the_o general_a point_n be_v this_o doct._n that_o faithful_a come_n unto_o jesus_n christ_n do_v sometime_o prevail_v even_o in_o corporal_a case_n this_o woman_n of_o canaan_n come_v to_o christ_n and_o she_o come_v in_o faith_n here_o be_v a_o faithful_a comer_n to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o she_o prevail_v for_o she_o own_o soul_n i_o and_o she_o prevail_v for_o her_o daughter_n body_n she_o prevail_v eminent_o for_o she_o own_o spiritual_a concernment_n i_o and_o she_o prevail_v also_o for_o her_o daughter_n corporal_a concernment_n that_o faith_n prevail_v always_o in_o spiritual_a concernment_n that_o we_o have_v often_o open_v and_o my_o belove_a it_o be_v a_o mercy_n that_o if_o it_o do_v not_o always_o prevail_v for_o our_o body_n yet_o that_o it_o do_v for_o our_o soul_n but_o god_n have_v provide_v and_o do_v so_o order_v it_o that_o sometime_o it_o shall_v prevail_v for_o body_n and_o soul_n too_o indeed_o go_v to_o christ_n be_v good_a for_o every_o thing_n and_o they_o who_o true_o go_v to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v one_o day_n have_v cause_n to_o sing_v the_o song_n of_o david_n bless_v the_o lord_n oh_o my_o soul_n who_o forgive_v all_o thy_o sin_n and_o heal_v all_o thy_o disease_n you_o that_o go_v to_o jesus_n christ_n you_o shall_v have_v cause_n to_o say_v bless_a be_v god_n i_o have_v soul-mercy_n and_o bodily-mercy_n too_o if_o you_o look_v through_o the_o whole_a story_n of_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n you_o shall_v see_v this_o truth_n the_o whole_a history_n of_o the_o gospel_n give_v we_o instance_n that_o faithful_a come_n to_o christ_n do_v sometime_o prevail_v with_o he_o for_o corporal-mercy_n as_o well_o as_o for_o spiritual_a mercy_n a_o double_a instance_n i_o shall_v give_v first_o a_o instance_n of_o prevail_v for_o ourselves_o second_o a_o instance_n of_o prevail_v for_o other_o first_o a_o instance_n of_o prevail_v for_o ourselves_o say_v the_o leper_n in_o matth._n 8.2_o lord_n if_o thou_o will_v thou_o can_v make_v i_o clean_o and_o that_o of_o the_o blind_a man_n barthomeus_n in_o luk._n 18.41_o say_v christ_n what_o will_v thou_o that_o i_o shall_v do_v unto_o thou_o and_o he_o say_v lord_n that_o i_o may_v receive_v my_o sight_n and_o his_o sight_n be_v restore_v to_o he_o many_o a_o time_n the_o lord_n christ_n be_v prevail_v withal_o for_o corporal_a mercy_n but_o second_o as_o many_o do_v prevail_v for_o themselves_o so_o they_o do_v often_o prevail_v for_o other_o as_o in_o matth._n 15.30_o it_o be_v there_o say_v great_a multitude_n come_v to_o he_o have_v with_o they_o those_o that_o be_v lame_a blind_a dumb_a maim_v and_o many_o other_o and_o cast_v they_o down_o at_o jesus_n foot_n and_o he_o heal_v they_o etc._n etc._n the_o lord_n do_v many_o corporal_a kindness_n for_o other_o the_o like_a to_o this_o you_o have_v in_o matth._n 9.1_o 2._o they_o bring_v to_o he_o one_o sick_a of_o the_o palsy_n and_o jesus_n see_v their_o faith_n heal_v he_o but_o now_o here_o be_v one_o objection_n against_o this_o object_n but_o you_o will_v say_v this_o be_v true_a of_o the_o time_n wherein_o christ_n live_v christ_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o earth_n heal_v simon_n peter_n wife_n mother_n of_o a_o fever_n and_o such_o a_o one_o daughter_n and_o such_o a_o one_o son_n but_o now_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n such_o thing_n be_v not_o to_o beee_v expect_v so_o some_o do_v think_v answ_n for_o answer_v first_o if_o we_o speak_v of_o his_o miraculous_a way_n of_o heal_a than_o it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o miraculous_a way_n of_o heal_a disease_n be_v a_o mercy_n more_o eminent_o put_v forth_o in_o those_o day_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o flesh_n but_o if_o you_o speak_v of_o the_o thing_n itself_o heal_v disease_n cure_v of_o body_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o we_o may_v expect_v the_o same_o mercy_n from_o jesus_n christ_n now_o that_o they_o do_v then_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o there_o be_v the_o same_o ground_n for_o christ_n to_o show_v corporal_a kindness_n now_o which_o be_v then_o where_o the_o ground_n of_o a_o thing_n be_v perpetual_a moral_a and_o eternal_o the_o same_o in_o all_o age_n the_o same_o thing_n may_v be_v do_v upon_o the_o same_o ground_n but_o etc._n etc._n i_o find_v in_o the_o gospel_n a_o double_a ground_n why_o christ_n do_v heal_v corporal_a disease_n the_o first_o ground_n be_v his_o pity_n and_o sympathy_n and_o second_o to_o fulfil_v prophecy_n and_o promise_n upon_o these_o two_o ground_n do_v christ_n heal_v either_o upon_o the_o ground_n of_o pity_n and_o compassion_n as_o a_o man_n or_o else_o upon_o the_o ground_n of_o prophecy_n or_o promise_n for_o the_o first_o ground_n you_o have_v it_o in_o matth._n 14.14_o it_o be_v say_v jesus_n go_v forth_o and_o see_v a_o great_a multitude_n and_o be_v move_v with_o compassion_n towards_o they_o and_o he_o heal_v their_o sick_a compassion_n do_v move_v christ_n and_o therefore_o he_o heal_v they_o now_o observe_v jesus_n christ_n now_o in_o heaven_n have_v the_o same_o compassion_n that_o he_o have_v here_o on_o earth_n and_o that_o be_v found_v upon_o his_o keep_n or_o retain_v of_o his_o humane_a nature_n still_o if_o christ_n have_v not_o now_o in_o heaven_n our_o humane_a nature_n he_o will_v not_o have_v have_v this_o compassion_n for_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o compassion_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n it_o be_v not_o build_v upon_o his_o godhead_n but_o upon_o his_o humane_a nature_n and_o therefore_o in_o heb._n 2.16_o 17._o it_o be_v say_v christ_n take_v not_o on_o he_o the_o nature_n of_o angel_n but_o he_o take_v on_o he_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n why_o so_o that_o he_o may_v be_v a_o merciful_a and_o faithful_a high_a priest_n etc._n etc._n he_o do_v therefore_o take_v man_n nature_n that_o he_o may_v have_v compassion_n now_o this_o jesus_n retain_v for_o ever_o and_o he_o have_v the_o same_o compassion_n now_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n that_o he_o have_v when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n the_o second_o ground_n be_v that_o which_o i_o find_v in_o isa_n 53.4_o compare_v with_o matth._n 8.17_o i_o pray_v mind_n it_o for_o it_o be_v good_a to_o know_v what_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o faith_n in_o isa_n 53._o say_v the_o prophet_n there_o sure_o he_o have_v bear_v our_o grief_n and_o carry_v our_o sorrow_n etc._n etc._n this_o be_v prophesy_v of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o only_o have_v compassion_n on_o our_o spiritual_a infirmity_n our_o sin_n but_o our_o corporal_n and_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n why_o he_o do_v heal_v disease_n in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o flesh_n matth._n 8.17_o it_o be_v say_v he_o heal_v all_o that_o be_v sick_a that_o it_o may_v be_v fulfil_v which_o be_v speak_v by_o isaiah_n the_o prophet_n say_v himself_o take_v our_o infirmity_n and_o bear_v our_o sickness_n here_o be_v the_o ground_n why_o christ_n do_v heal_v then_o because_o it_o be_v prophesy_v he_o shall_v bear_v our_o sickness_n now_o this_o prophecy_n be_v a_o eternal_a truth_n and_o if_o in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o flesh_n he_o do_v show_v corporal_a kindness_n that_o that_o prophecy_n may_v be_v fulfil_v he_o will_v now_o do_v the_o same_o that_o the_o same_o prophecy_n may_v be_v fulfil_v even_o in_o these_o day_n we_o may_v expect_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n upon_o our_o faithful_a come_n to_o he_o shall_v show_v corporal_a kindness_n to_o we_o and_o we_o as_o well_o as_o spiritual_a one_o scripture_n i_o shall_v add_v for_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o and_o that_o be_v in_o james_n 5.14_o be_v any_o man_n sick_a among_o you_o let_v he_o call_v for_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o church_n and_o let_v they_o pray_v over_o he_o etc._n etc._n and_o the_o prayer_n of_o faith_n shall_v save_v the_o sick_a etc._n etc._n here_o observe_v that_o faithful_a prayer_n shall_v prevail_v for_o
say_v they_o hunger_n who_o yet_o have_v not_o a_o spiritual_a stomach_n at_o all_o to_o christ_n the_o bread_n of_o life_n they_o ask_v bread_n but_o it_o be_v only_o a_o ask_n now_o christ_n will_v try_v we_o and_o by_o this_o strange_a carriage_n he_o tri_v we_o indeed_o and_o for_o we_o to_o continue_v beg_v cry_v bread_n after_o christ_n have_v speak_v to_o we_o as_o to_o this_o woman_n after_o he_o have_v say_v i_o be_o not_o send_v for_o you_o it_o be_v not_o meet_v to_o give_v unto_o you_o be_v go_v what_o shall_v a_o dog_n have_v child_n bread_n after_o this_o i_o say_v to_o wait_v and_o worship_n to_o beg_v and_o reiterate_v cry_n for_o bread_n this_o will_v make_v christ_n say_v this_o longing_n be_v sincere_a and_o strong_a believe_v it_o here_o be_v a_o hungry_a soul_n indeed_o many_o wish_v for_o christ_n who_o do_v not_o hearty_o hunger_n for_o he_o second_o christ_n will_v try_v faith_n too_o and_o it_o be_v good_a for_o we_o to_o be_v try_v in_o our_o faith_n say_v christ_n here_o come_v a_o soul_n to_o i_o he_o look_v as_o if_o he_o will_v take_v hold_n of_o i_o i_o will_v try_v whether_o he_o be_v one_o of_o jacob_n child_n that_o will_v wrestle_v a_o fall_n and_o keep_v his_o hold_n when_o i_o seek_v and_o seem_v to_o cast_v he_o off_o i_o will_v see_v if_o i_o call_v he_o dog_n whether_o he_o will_v trust_v and_o believe_v he_o may_v be_v a_o child_n it_o be_v a_o trial_n and_o demonstration_n that_o job_n faith_n be_v right_a when_o he_o will_v trust_v in_o a_o kill_a god_n and_o it_o will_v try_v our_o faith_n indeed_o to_o wait_v upon_o and_o cling_v to_o a_o seem_o reject_v redeemer_n and_o this_o be_v the_o great_a matter_n in_o the_o case_n of_o this_o poor_a woman_n oh_o woman_n great_a be_v thy_o faith_n jesus_n christ_n do_v all_o this_o to_o try_v the_o woman_n faith_n god_n will_v see_v whether_o the_o soul_n will_v take_v hold_n of_o a_o angry_a christ_n and_o run_v after_o a_o going-away_a christ_n in_o 1_o pet._n 1.7_o say_v the_o apostle_n there_o that_o the_o trial_n of_o your_o faith_n be_v much_o more_o precious_a than_o of_o gold_n that_o perish_v etc._n etc._n it_o be_v not_o

faith_n be_v a_o precious_a thing_n now_o that_o christ_n may_v try_v our_o faith_n as_o well_o as_o our_o hunger_n therefore_o he_o deal_v a_o little_a harsh_o with_o we_o three_o the_o lord_n have_v

any_o as_o hunger_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n will_v take_v the_o soul_n upon_o the_o hip_n and_o make_v the_o soul_n full_o deny_v itself_o and_o now_o say_v god_n if_o thou_o will_v come_v to_o

to_o this_o end_n or_o for_o this_o reason_n do_v christ_n sometime_o deal_v with_o we_o as_o with_o the_o woman_n of_o canaan_n he_o will_v seem_o deny_v we_o that_o we_o may_v real_o deny_v
