in_o vs._n if_o it_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o meditation_n of_o heavenly_a thing_n than_o it_o note_n that_o we_o can_v never_o set_v our_o affection_n on_o thing_n that_o be_v above_o till_o we_o have_v mortify_v our_o member_n that_o be_v on_o earth_n the_o corruption_n of_o our_o nature_n and_o life_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o such_o disability_n to_o contemplate_v of_o or_o affect_v

it_o import_v that_o mortification_n be_v of_o great_a necessity_n unto_o our_o preparation_n to_o the_o last_o judgement_n and_o will_v be_v of_o great_a request_n in_o the_o day_n of_o christ._n

the_o earth_n 55.10_o which_o may_v teach_v we_o as_o to_o live_v by_o faith_n so_o not_o to_o trust_v the_o judgement_n of_o the_o world_n or_o the_o flesh_n in_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n but_o the_o manifest_a doctrine_n from_o this_o word_n be_v this_o that_o true_a repentance_n have_v in_o it_o the_o mortification_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o it_o imply_v diverse_a thing_n first_o that_o we_o must_v not_o let_v sin_n alone_o till_o it_o die_v itself_o note_v but_o we_o must_v kill_v sin_n while_o it_o may_v yet_o live_v it_o be_v no_o repentance_n to_o leave_v sin_n when_o it_o leave_v we_o or_o to_o give_v it_o over_o when_o we_o can_v commit_v it_o no_o long_o second_o that_o true_a repentance_n make_v a_o great_a alteration_n in_o a_o man_n three_o that_o it_o have_v in_o it_o pain_n and_o sorrow_n man_n use_v not_o to_o die_v ordinary_o without_o much_o pain_n and_o sure_o it_o be_v sin_n have_v a_o strong_a heart_n note_n it_o be_v not_o soon_o kill_v it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o sleep_v another_o thing_n to_o die_v many_o man_n with_o less_o ado_n get_v sin_n asleep_a that_o it_o do_v not_o so_o stir_v in_o they_o but_o alas_o there_o must_v be_v more_o ado_n to_o get_v it_o dead_a by_o true_a mortification_n four_o true_a repentance_n extinguish_v the_o power_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o vigour_n of_o it_o it_o make_v it_o like_o a_o dead_a corpse_n that_o neither_o it_o stir_v itself_o nor_o will_v be_v stir_v by_o occasion_n persuasion_n commandment_n or_o stroke_n it_o be_v a_o wonderful_a testimony_n of_o sound_a mortification_n when_o we_o have_v get_v our_o old_a corruption_n to_o this_o pass_n and_o constancy_n in_o prayer_n and_o hear_n and_o daily_a confession_n and_o sorrow_n for_o sin_n will_v bring_v it_o to_o be_v thus_o with_o we_o especial_o if_o we_o strive_v with_o god_n and_o be_v earnest_a with_o spiritual_a importunity_n watch_v the_o way_n of_o our_o own_o heart_n to_o wound_v sin_n so_o soon_o as_o we_o see_v it_o begin_v to_o stir_v yet_o i_o will_v not_o be_v mistake_v as_o if_o i_o mean_v that_o a_o christian_n can_v attain_v such_o a_o victory_n over_o sin_n that_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v in_o he_o at_o all_o nor_o that_o he_o shall_v ever_o be_v stir_v with_o the_o temptation_n or_o enticement_n or_o occasion_n of_o evil_a but_o my_o meaning_n be_v that_o in_o some_o measure_n and_o in_o the_o most_o sin_n a_o christian_n do_v find_v it_o so_o and_o in_o every_o sin_n his_o desire_n and_o endeavour_n be_v daily_o to_o have_v it_o so_o and_o his_o desire_n be_v not_o without_o some_o happy_a success_n so_o as_o sin_n die_v or_o lie_v a_o die_a every_o day_n but_o here_o a_o question_n may_v arise_v que._n do_v not_o the_o apostle_n grant_v they_o be_v dead_a before_o and_o if_o they_o be_v dead_a to_o the_o world_n they_o be_v without_o question_n dead_a to_o sin_n also_o how_o then_o do_v he_o speak_v to_o they_o to_o mortify_v sin_n do_v it_o not_o imply_v they_o have_v not_o be_v mortify_v before_o i_o answer_v the_o apostle_n may_v well_o use_v this_o exhortation_n for_o diverse_a reason_n ans._n first_o many_o of_o they_o perhaps_o be_v dead_a but_o in_o appearance_n they_o profess_v mortification_n but_o be_v not_o mortify_v second_o it_o may_v be_v some_o of_o they_o have_v begin_v to_o use_v some_o exercise_n of_o mortification_n but_o have_v not_o finish_v their_o mortification_n sure_o it_o be_v and_o we_o may_v see_v it_o by_o daily_a experience_n that_o many_o be_v win_v by_o the_o word_n and_o smite_v with_o remorse_n have_v sometime_o the_o pang_n of_o
