isaiah_n write_v be_v gospel_n he_o be_v a_o evangelicall_n prophet_n and_o in_o that_o description_n there_o be_v these_o thing_n first_o the_o occasion_n of_o this_o great_a humiliation_n they_o god_n humble_v his_o minister_n ere_o he_o send_v they_o of_o the_o prophet_n and_o that_o be_v that_o god_n be_v now_o set_v he_o forth_o in_o the_o gospel_n to_o preach_v the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o the_o people_n god_n when_o he_o send_v minister_n to_o his_o work_n he_o do_v first_o humble_v they_o they_o can_v never_o do_v any_o thing_n to_o purpose_n for_o god_n till_o they_o be_v undo_v woe_n be_v i_o i_o be_o undo_v say_v the_o prophet_n in_o this_o verse_n and_o then_o in_o the_o verse_n follow_v god_n send_v he_o to_o preach_v so_o that_o the_o main_a cause_n why_o you_o have_v not_o minister_n according_a to_o god_n that_o he_o do_v not_o bless_v their_o work_n according_a to_o your_o heart_n and_o desire_n it_o be_v not_o for_o want_v of_o part_n or_o understanding_n or_o for_o want_n of_o part_n or_o degree_n or_o the_o like_a but_o the_o general_a the_o main_a cause_n be_v because_o they_o be_v not_o humble_v god_n have_v not_o undo_v they_o second_o there_o be_v the_o humiliation_n itself_o which_o consist_v first_o of_o a_o act_n of_o the_o understanding_n whereby_o the_o prophet_n see_v some_o thing_n more_o than_o he_o know_v before_o and_o cry_v out_o i_o be_o undo_v he_o think_v he_o be_v in_o a_o good_a condition_n before_o but_o now_o he_o do_v not_o mere_o say_v i_o be_o undo_v but_o woe_n be_v i_o woe_n be_v i_o i_o be_o undo_v three_o there_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o the_o cause_n be_v twofold_a one_o be_v material_a as_o you_o call_v it_o that_o be_v sin_n woe_n be_v i_o i_o be_o undo_v why_o because_o i_o be_o a_o man_n say_v the_o septuagint_n indeed_o a_o man_n as_o a_o man_n will_v be_v undo_v if_o humiliation_n sin_n a_o cause_n of_o humiliation_n he_o see_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n if_o he_o be_v not_o a_o sinner_n but_o say_v he_o because_o i_o be_o a_o man_n of_o unclean_a lip_n and_o because_o i_o dwell_v among_o a_o people_n of_o unclean_a lip_n because_o i_o see_v i_o have_v many_o sin_n and_o because_o i_o see_v they_o now_o the_o least_o sin_n be_v exceed_o sinful_a even_o to_o dwell_v among_o wicked_a people_n a_o man_n can_v choose_v but_o be_v taint_v with_o they_o therefore_o woe_n be_v i_o i_o be_o undo_v the_o other_o cause_n be_v in_o these_o word_n i_o have_v see_v the_o king_n the_o lord_n of_o host_n for_o a_o man_n may_v have_v sinenough_fw-mi and_o yet_o never_o be_v humble_v or_o undo_v as_o you_o know_v wicked_a man_n now_o have_v and_o man_n and_o devil_n sight_n the_o sight_n of_o god_n a_o humble_v sight_n for_o ever_o will_v have_v hereafter_o in_o hell_n and_o yet_o they_o will_v never_o be_v humble_v they_o will_v never_o be_v undo_v in_o this_o sense_n but_o there_o be_v this_o thing_n to_o make_v it_o up_o my_o eye_n have_v see_v the_o king_n the_o lord_n of_o host_n as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o verse_n before_o in_o the_o vision_n how_o he_o have_v see_v the_o lord_n so_o now_o we_o come_v to_o these_o word_n for_o my_o eye_n have_v see_v the_o king_n the_o lord_n of_o host_n from_o which_o word_n you_o be_v to_o observe_v two_o thing_n the_o first_o be_v this_o that_o it_o be_v the_o peculiar_a privilege_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o ever_o be_v and_o ever_o will_v be_v to_o see_v god_n to_o see_v the_o king_n the_o lord_n of_o host_n second_o that_o a_o true_a save_a sight_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n jesus_n be_v that_o principal_o that_o undo_v man_n or_o true_o and_o save_o humble_v man_n i_o shall_v speak_v more_o particular_o of_o the_o latter_a but_o we_o can_v well_o understand_v the_o latter_a without_o we_o have_v a_o little_a understanding_n in_o the_o former_a for_o if_o you_o will_v know_v how_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n humble_v man_n you_o must_v understand_v a_o little_a what_o this_o sight_n what_o this_o see_v of_o god_n be_v i_o shall_v speak_v brief_o of_o the_o former_a lesson_n which_o be_v this_o that_o god_n doct._n 1._o the_o peculiar_a privilege_n of_o the_o saint_n to_o see_v god_n it_o be_v a_o peculiar_a privilege_n of_o a_o saint_n and_o ever_o be_v and_o ever_o will_v he_o to_o see_v god_n to_o see_v the_o king_n of_o glory_n the_o lord_n of_o host_n we_o do_v not_o now_o speak_v of_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n that_o we_o call_v the_o beatifical_a vision_n that_o sight_n of_o god_n we_o shall_v have_v in_o heaven_n for_o every_o one_o of_o you_o know_v that_o wicked_a man_n shall_v never_o see_v god_n that_o way_n but_o i_o say_v there_o be_v a_o sight_n of_o god_n in_o this_o world_n that_o every_o world_n a_o sight_n of_o god_n in_o this_o world_n saint_n in_o all_o age_n have_v have_v and_o no_o other_o son_n or_o daughter_n of_o man_n from_o the_o begin_n to_o the_o end_n ever_o have_v or_o shall_v have_v but_o those_o that_o be_v real_a s_n it_o be_v concern_v this_o sight_n or_o see_v of_o god_n we_o mean_v to_o speak_v if_o god_n will_v and_o that_o you_o may_v understand_v it_o you_o must_v corporeal_o man_n be_v say_v to_o see_v god_n 〈◊〉_d 1_o corporeal_o know_v that_o there_o be_v divers_a sort_n of_o sight_n of_o god_n man_n be_v say_v many_o way_n to_o see_v god_n as_o first_o there_o be_v a_o corporeal_a sight_n a_o bodily_a sight_n of_o god_n a_o see_v of_o god_n with_o bodily_a eye_n and_o so_o the_o scripture_n do_v often_o speak_v negative_o that_o no_o man_n have_v see_v god_n at_o any_o time_n that_o way_n no_o man_n have_v see_v his_o shape_n that_o be_v no_o man_n in_o this_o world_n with_o bodily_a eye_n do_v ever_o see_v god_n as_o though_o he_o be_v a_o body_n or_o a_o corporeal_a substance_n indeed_o man_n have_v see_v jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v god_n and_o christ_n jesus_n say_v joh._n 6_o 36._o you_o have_v see_v i_o and_o hear_v i_o and_o yet_o you_o believe_v not_o in_o i_o so_o that_o the_o pharisee_n the_o proud_a pharisee_n that_o never_o be_v humble_v see_v jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v god_n but_o yet_o that_o be_v not_o the_o sight_n here_o speak_v of_o that_o peculiar_a sight_n which_o none_o but_o saint_n have_v for_o the_o former_a no_o man_n ever_o have_v and_o the_o latter_a wicked_a man_n have_v as_o well_o as_o good_a that_o be_v wicked_a man_n see_v christ_n bodily_a as_o well_o as_o good_a man_n second_o there_o be_v a_o other_o sight_n of_o god_n that_o be_v we_o providence_n 2._o in_o work_n of_o creation_n or_o providence_n may_v be_v say_v to_o see_v god_n in_o his_o work_n of_o creation_n or_o providence_n or_o rather_o to_o speak_v more_o proper_o we_o see_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v rom._n 1._o they_o see_v the_o invisible_a thing_n of_o god_n in_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v make_v that_o be_v a_o natural_a man_n may_v see_v a_o great_a power_n in_o that_o finger_n which_o make_v the_o moon_n and_o great_a wisdom_n in_o he_o that_o contrive_v the_o sun_n moon_n star_n and_o all_o creature_n from_o the_o beginning_n now_o i_o say_v this_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o see_v or_o a_o know_n of_o god_n for_o in_o rom._n 1._o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o one_o place_n they_o see_v the_o invisible_a thing_n of_o god_n so_o afterward_o it_o be_v say_v they_o know_v god_n who_o because_o they_o know_v god_n and_o glorify_v he_o not_o as_o god_n god_n give_v they_o up_o etc._n etc._n there_o be_v some_o thing_n some_o fashion_n that_o they_o do_v see_v god_n in_o the_o creation_n in_o the_o creature_n but_o this_o sight_n of_o god_n be_v not_o that_o i_o mean_v to_o speak_v of_o that_o glorious_a and_o bless_a sight_n of_o which_o christ_n speak_v math._n 5._o bless_a be_v the_o pure_a in_o heart_n for_o they_o shall_v see_v god_n three_o beside_o the_o corporeal_a see_v and_o the_o natural_a illumination_n 3._o by_o common_a illumination_n see_v there_o be_v a_o sight_n of_o god_n by_o the_o illumination_n of_o god_n spirit_n i_o say_v god_n spirit_n may_v raise_v a_o man_n up_o to_o see_v thing_n which_o no_o man_n natural_o ever_o do_v or_o can_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o this_o sight_n now_o indeed_o that_o more_o proper_o as_o i_o say_v of_o the_o former_a be_v to_o see_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n only_o the_o former_a be_v a_o see_v of_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n in_o the_o creature_n and_o this_o be_v a_o see_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n in_o the_o gospel_n so_o in_o heb._n 6._o 6._o where_o mention_n be_v make_v of_o hypocrite_n that_o fall_v away_o
