and_o love_n be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o every_o one_o may_v try_v himself_o by_o love_n if_o he_o have_v name_v either_o give_v or_o do_v of_o this_o or_o that_o man_n may_v have_v say_v i_o can_v do_v it_o or_o i_o can_v part_v with_o it_o but_o when_o he_o name_v love_n there_o be_v none_o but_o they_o may_v love_v the_o point_n consider_v be_v that_o there_o must_v be_v a_o qualification_n of_o those_o that_o heaven_n be_v provide_v for_o they_o must_v be_v such_o as_o love_n god_n such_o as_o be_v alter_v and_o change_v and_o sanctify_v to_o love_v he_o because_o no_o unclean_a thing_n shall_v enter_v in_o thither_o because_o we_o can_v so_o much_o as_o desire_v heaven_n without_o a_o change_n we_o can_v have_v communion_n there_o with_o christ_n and_o those_o bless_a soul_n without_o likeness_n to_o they_o which_o must_v be_v by_o a_o spirit_n of_o love_n our_o nature_n must_v be_v alter_v therefore_o it_o be_v a_o vain_a presumption_n for_o any_o man_n to_o think_v of_o heaven_n unless_o he_o find_v his_o disposition_n alter_v for_o we_o may_v read_v our_o eternal_a condition_n in_o heaven_n 1._o by_o our_o disposition_n upon_o earth_n the_o apostle_n peter_n say_v 1_o pet._n 1._o bless_a be_v god_n the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o have_v beget_v we_o to_o a_o lively_a hope_n of_o a_o inheritance_n immortal_a and_o undefiled_a reserve_v in_o heaven_n so_o that_o the_o inheritance_n in_o heaven_n we_o be_v beget_v to_o it_o we_o must_v be_v new_o bear_v we_o must_v have_v a_o new_a birth_n before_o we_o can_v inherit_v it_o he_o have_v beget_v we_o to_o a_o inheritance_n immortal_a etc._n etc._n he_o that_o be_v not_o a_o child_n may_v not_o think_v of_o a_o inheritance_n put_v case_n there_o be_v never_o so_o many_o glorious_a thing_n in_o heaven_n that_o eye_n have_v never_o see_v nor_o ear_n ever_o hear_v etc._n etc._n if_o our_o name_n be_v not_o in_o christ_n will_n that_o we_o be_v not_o he_o and_o prove_v ourselves_o to_o be_v his_o by_o the_o alteration_n of_o our_o disposition_n what_o be_v all_o those_o good_a thing_n to_o we_o when_o our_o name_n be_v not_o contain_v there_o it_o be_v call_v a_o hope_n of_o life_n a_o lively_a hope_n because_o he_o that_o have_v this_o hope_n purge_v himself_o it_o make_v he_o vigorous_a and_o active_a in_o good_a if_o his_o hope_n of_o life_n make_v he_o not_o lively_a he_o have_v no_o hope_n of_o life_n at_o all_o therefore_o those_o that_o will_v look_v for_o heaven_n that_o satan_n abuse_v they_o not_o by_o false_a confidence_n let_v they_o look_v whether_o god_n have_v alter_v their_o heart_n that_o the_o work_n of_o grace_n be_v wrought_v in_o some_o measure_n for_o god_n have_v not_o ordain_v these_o great_a thing_n for_o his_o enemy_n for_o blasphemer_n that_o take_v god_n name_n in_o vain_a enemy_n that_o run_v on_o in_o course_n contrary_a to_o his_o will_n and_o word_n that_o live_v in_o sin_n against_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n do_v you_o think_v he_o have_v provide_v these_o great_a matter_n for_o they_o he_o have_v another_o place_n for_o they_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o be_v abuse_v by_o our_o own_o false_a heart_n to_o think_v of_o such_o a_o happy_a condition_n unless_o we_o find_v ourselves_o change_v unless_o we_o be_v new_o bear_v we_o shall_v never_o enter_v into_o heaven_n lord_n lord_n say_v they_o christ_n bring_v they_o in_o plead_v so_o lord_n lord_n not_o that_o they_o shall_v say_v so_o then_o that_o be_v not_o the_o meaning_n but_o now_o they_o cherish_v such_o a_o confidence_n oh_o we_o can_v speak_v well_o and_o we_o can_v pray_v well_o lord_n lord._n oh_o thou_o vain_a confident_a person_n thy_o confession_n and_o profession_n lord_n lord_n shall_v do_v thou_o no_o good_a i_o will_v not_o so_o much_o as_o own_v thou_o away_o hence_o thou_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n thy_o heart_n tell_v thou_o thou_o live_v in_o sin_n against_o conscience_n away_o avaunt_o i_o will_v none_o of_o thou_o god_n in_o mercy_n to_o we_o will_v have_v the_o trial_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o our_o evidence_n in_o we_o the_o ground_n of_o all_o our_o salvation_n be_v his_o grace_n his_o free_a favour_n and_o mercy_n in_o his_o own_o heart_n but_o we_o can_v go_v thither_o he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o search_v within_o ourselves_o and_o there_o we_o shall_v find_v love_n god_n have_v prepare_v for_o those_o that_o love_v he_o obseru._n in_o particular_a therefore_o those_o that_o god_n have_v provide_v so_o excellent_a thing_n for_o they_o be_v such_o as_o love_v he_o they_o be_v such_o first_o of_o all_o that_o be_v belove_v of_o he_o and_o show_v that_o they_o be_v belove_v of_o he_o by_o their_o love_n to_o he_o therefore_o when_o the_o papist_n meet_v with_o such_o phrase_n they_o think_v of_o merit_n confute_v he_o have_v provide_v heaven_n for_o they_o that_o love_v he_o and_o show_v their_o love_n in_o good_a work_n but_o we_o must_v know_v that_o this_o be_v not_o bring_v in_o as_o a_o cause_n why_o but_o as_o a_o qualification_n of_o the_o person_n who_o who_o shall_v inherit_v heaven_n and_o who_o shall_v have_v these_o great_a thing_n it_o be_v idle_a for_o they_o to_o think_v that_o these_o thing_n be_v prepare_v for_o those_o who_o god_n foresee_v will_v do_v such_o and_o such_o good_a work_n it_o be_v as_o if_o we_o shall_v think_v he_o have_v provide_v these_o happy_a thing_n for_o those_o that_o be_v his_o enemy_n for_o how_o can_v he_o look_v for_o love_n from_o we_o in_o a_o state_n of_o corruption_n when_o the_o best_a thing_n in_o we_o be_v enmity_n to_o he_o be_v it_o not_o a_o vain_a thing_n to_o look_v for_o light_n from_o darkness_n to_o look_v for_o love_n from_o enmity_n and_o hatred_n therefore_o how_o can_v god_n foresee_v any_o thing_n in_o we_o when_o he_o can_v see_v nothing_o but_o enmity_n and_o darkness_n in_o our_o disposition_n by_o nature_n and_o then_o as_o we_o shall_v see_v afterward_o this_o love_n in_o we_o it_o must_v be_v with_o all_o our_o heart_n and_o soul_n and_o might_n it_o be_v require_v and_o command_v and_o when_o we_o do_v all_o this_o we_o do_v but_o what_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o do_v but_o they_o abuse_v such_o place_n upon_o so_o shallow_a ground_n that_o indeed_o it_o deserve_v not_o so_o much_o as_o to_o be_v mention_v to_o come_v then_o to_o the_o point_n itself_o the_o disposition_n of_o those_o that_o shall_v come_v to_o heaven_n then_o be_v they_o must_v be_v such_o as_o love_v god_n now_o he_o name_v this_o because_o these_o two_o go_v always_o together_o there_o go_v somewhat_o of_o we_o together_o with_o somewhat_o of_o god_n to_o witness_v to_o we_o what_o god_n do_v there_o go_v our_o choice_n of_o god_n with_o his_o choose_n of_o we_o our_o know_v of_o god_n with_o his_o knowledge_n of_o we_o our_o love_n to_o he_o with_o his_o love_n to_o we_o therefore_o because_o these_o be_v so_o connex_v and_o knit_v together_o he_o take_v the_o one_o for_o the_o other_o and_o to_o make_v it_o familiar_a to_o we_o he_o take_v that_o which_o be_v most_o familiar_a to_o we_o our_o love_n to_o he_o now_o he_o name_v this_o above_o all_o other_o affection_n because_o love_n be_v the_o command_a affection_n of_o the_o soul_n affection_n it_o be_v that_o affection_n that_o rule_v all_o other_o affection_n hatred_n and_o anger_n and_o joy_n and_o delight_n and_o desire_n they_o all_o spring_n from_o love_n &_o because_o all_o duty_n spring_v from_o love_n both_o to_o god_n and_o man_n therefore_o both_o table_n be_v include_v in_o love_n and_o when_o the_o apostle_n will_v set_v down_o the_o qualification_n of_o those_o that_o shall_v enjoy_v these_o thing_n he_o say_v they_o be_v for_o those_o that_o love_v he_o because_o it_o stir_v up_o to_o all_o duty_n and_o add_v a_o sweet_a qualification_n to_o every_o duty_n and_o make_v it_o acceptable_a and_o to_o relish_v with_o god_n it_o stir_v up_o to_o do_v and_o qualify_v the_o action_n that_o come_v from_o love_n to_o be_v accept_v all_o duty_n to_o man_n spring_n from_o love_n to_o man_n and_o love_v to_o man_n from_o love_n to_o god_n it_o be_v the_o affection_n that_o stir_v up_o the_o duty_n and_o stir_v up_o the_o affection_n fit_a for_o the_o duty_n it_o stir_v up_o to_o do_v the_o thing_n and_o to_o do_v all_o in_o love_n whatsoever_o we_o do_v to_o god_n or_o man_n it_o must_v be_v in_o love_n all_o that_o god_n do_v to_o we_o it_o be_v in_o love_n he_o choose_v we_o in_o love_n and_o do_v every_o thing_n in_o love_n and_o all_o that_o we_o do_v to_o god_n it_o must_v be_v in_o love_n therefore_o he_o name_v no_o other_o affection_n but_o this_o because_o it_o be_v
