to_o hear_v be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o speak_n of_o a_o man_n that_o you_o be_v go_v to_o attend_v upon_o but_o that_o you_o be_v now_o go_v to_o attend_v upon_o god_n

you_o find_v that_o the_o apostle_n write_v to_o the_o thessalonian_n he_o give_v they_o the_o reason_n why_o the_o word_n do_v they_o so_o much_o good_a as_o it_o do_v it_o be_v because_o they_o do_v

by_o god_n to_o convey_v spiritual_a good_a to_o my_o soul_n and_o this_o be_v a_o very_a useful_a consideration_n and_o especial_o it_o concern_v man_n of_o understanding_n and_o part_n for_o the_o help_a of_o they_o to_o hear_v for_o man_n that_o be_v of_o understanding_n and_o part_n when_o they_o come_v to_o hear_v this_o temptation_n be_v ready_a to_o come_v upon_o they_o that_o except_o

be_v say_v and_o when_o i_o have_v come_v and_o hear_v many_o time_n i_o have_v hear_v but_o that_o i_o know_v before_o and_o upon_o that_o they_o think_v there_o be_v no_o use_n of_o come_v to_o hear_v now_o this_o be_v a_o great_a mistake_n when_o you_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n you_o do_v not_o come_v always_o to_o hear_v what_o you_o do_v not_o know_v it_o may_v be_v sometime_o god_n may_v dart_v in_o something_o that_o you_o do_v not_o think_v of_o before_o or_o so_o full_o understand_v but_o suppose_v it_o be_v not_o so_o you_o be_v to_o come_v to_o it_o as_o a_o ordinance_n of_o god_n for_o the_o conveyance_n of_o spiritual_a good_a to_o your_o soul_n you_o will_v say_v can_v we_o sit_v at_o home_n and_o read_v a_o sermon_n but_o have_v god_n appoint_v that_o the_o great_a ordinance_n for_o the_o convert_n and_o the_o edify_n of_o soul_n in_o the_o way_n to_o eternal_a life_n true_o there_o be_v some_o use_n of_o it_o but_o the_o great_a ordinance_n be_v the_o preach_v of_o the_o word_n faith_n come_v by_o hear_v the_o scripture_n say_v and_o never_o by_o read_v so_o that_o though_o when_o you_o come_v to_o hear_v you_o do_v not_o hear_v that_o which_o you_o hear_v not_o before_o yet_o you_o come_v to_o attend_v upon_o this_o ordinance_n for_o the_o conveyance_n of_o some_o spiritual_a good_a that_o it_o may_v be_v have_v not_o be_v convey_v before_o or_o in_o a_o further_a degree_n than_o it_o have_v be_v convey_v before_o and_o so_o you_o shall_v come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n with_o your_o heart_n possess_v with_o that_o meditation_n that_o it_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o great_a ordinance_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v for_o the_o conveyance_n of_o spiritual_a good_a so_o that_o i_o come_v now_o in_o obedience_n to_o god_n and_o in_o this_o i_o do_v testify_v my_o respect_n to_o god_n that_o i_o will_v attend_v upon_o this_o ordinance_n of_o his_o for_o the_o conveyance_n of_o spiritual_a good_a to_o i_o and_o although_o i_o may_v think_v that_o this_o or_o the_o other_o mean_n may_v do_v the_o deed_n as_o well_o yet_o because_o god_n have_v appoint_v this_o to_o be_v his_o ordinance_n therefore_o in_o obedience_n to_o he_o i_o will_v attend_v upon_o this_o mean_n rather_o than_o upon_o other_o mean_n as_o you_o know_v naaman_n he_o think_v the_o other_o water_n will_v have_v be_v as_o good_a as_o the_o water_n of_o jordan_n to_o have_v heal_v he_o but_o if_o god_n will_v appoint_v he_o the_o water_n of_o jordan_n that_o they_o shall_v heal_v he_o rather_o than_o other_o water_n he_o must_v wash_v there_o no_o question_n but_o other_o water_n have_v as_o much_o natural_a virtue_n in_o they_o as_o they_o have_v but_o because_o the_o water_n of_o jordan_n be_v the_o ordinance_n that_o god_n for_o that_o time_n have_v appoint_v to_o cure_v his_o leprosy_n withal_o he_o must_v come_v and_o wash_v in_o those_o water_n rather_o than_o in_o any_o other_o so_o because_o preach_v of_o the_o word_n be_v the_o great_a ordinance_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v to_o convey_v himself_o by_o therefore_o he_o do_v require_v that_o thou_o shall_v show_v thy_o respect_n to_o he_o so_o far_o as_o to_o attend_v upon_o he_o in_o this_o ordinance_n the_o second_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o be_v do_v in_o way_n of_o preparation_n it_o be_v to_o plough_v up_o the_o fallow_a ground_n of_o

in_o the_o world_n and_o that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n have_v not_o come_v and_o that_o the_o will_n of_o god_n have_v not_o be_v do_v have_v these_o thing_n take_v up_o your_o heart_n in_o

take_v up_o your_o heart_n in_o prayer_n then_o when_o you_o be_v at_o sea_n you_o will_v remember_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o church_n as_o much_o as_o yourselves_o the_o church_n be_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o sea_n toss_v up_o and_o down_o and_o in_o a_o great_a storm_n now_o why_o do_v not_o you_o pray_v as_o earnest_o for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n among_o his_o church_n as_o for_o yourselves_o when_o you_o be_v in_o a_o storm_n at_o sea_n yea_o and_o spiritual_a thing_n shall_v be_v the_o chief_a matter_n of_o your_o prayer_n for_o they_o be_v the_o near_a to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n though_o god_n have_v his_o glory_n from_o other_o thing_n yet_o spiritual_a thing_n be_v near_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n now_o in_o these_o day_n of_o prayer_n many_o will_v come_v to_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v be_v free_v from_o danger_n that_o they_o may_v have_v outward_a peace_n this_o be_v good_a but_o spiritual_a thing_n be_v the_o chief_a thing_n and_o therefore_o the_o strength_n of_o your_o spirit_n shall_v be_v thus_o power_v forth_o to_o god_n oh_o that_o i_o can_v get_v my_o heart_n to_o god_n and_o the_o assurance_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n oh_o that_o i_o can_v get_v the_o shine_n of_o his_o face_n oh_o that_o i_o can_v get_v power_n over_o such_o and_o such_o corruption_n and_o i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v this_o that_o spiritual_a thing_n may_v be_v pray_v for_o absolute_o but_o outward_a thing_n must_v be_v pray_v for_o conditional_o i_o may_v pray_v and_o never_o put_v any_o condition_n in_o at_o all_o that_o the_o lord_n will_v pardon_v my_o sin_n and_o help_v i_o against_o my_o corruption_n etc._n etc._n but_o when_o i_o pray_v for_o the_o health_n of_o my_o body_n i_o ought_v to_o pray_v if_o this_o be_v according_a to_o thy_o will_n then_o restore_v i_o to_o the_o health_n of_o my_o body_n or_o the_o health_n of_o my_o husband_n or_o the_o health_n of_o my_o wife_n but_o thou_o may_v pray_v lord_n convert_v the_o soul_n of_o my_o husband_n or_o the_o soul_n of_o my_o wife_n without_o any_o condition_n at_o all_o when_o your_o estate_n at_o sea_n be_v in_o danger_n when_o you_o pray_v for_o they_o you_o must_v make_v condition_n lord_n as_o thou_o see_v best_a for_o i_o so_o do_v thou_o deal_v with_o i_o this_o show_v the_o excellency_n that_o there_o be_v in_o spiritual_a thing_n above_o outward_a thing_n sure_o spiritual_a thing_n be_v more_o to_o be_v desire_v for_o they_o be_v to_o be_v pray_v for_o absolute_o and_o the_o other_o to_o be_v pray_v for_o only_o conditional_o that_o be_v for_o the_o first_o in_o the_o second_o place_n we_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o our_o own_o good_a god_n do_v give_v we_o leave_v to_o do_v so_o only_o here_o come_v in_o a_o question_n quest_n whether_o it_o be_v sinful_a to_o pray_v for_o affliction_n as_o sometime_o some_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o do_v answ_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v first_o take_v it_o absolute_o consider_v we_o may_v not_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v afflict_v we_o because_o afflione_n be_v in_o its_o self_n material_o a_o evil_a thing_n and_o a_o fruit_n of_o the_o curse_n therefore_o we_o may_v not_o i_o say_v absolute_o pray_v for_o it_o but_o thus_o far_o we_o may_v pray_v for_o affliction_n disjunctive_o conditional_o comparative_o disjunctive_o thus_o lord_n either_o grant_n unto_o i_o a_o sanctify_a use_n of_o such_o a_o mercy_n or_o otherwise_o let_v i_o rather_o be_v without_o it_o let_v i_o have_v a_o sanctify_a use_n of_o my_o siknes_n or_o otherwise_o let_v my_o sickness_n be_v continue_v to_o i_o thus_o now_o you_o may_v pray_v for_o continue_v in_o sickness_n or_o thus_o conditional_o '_o lord_n if_o thou_o see_v that_o my_o heart_n be_v so_o vile_a and_o wretched_a that_o i_o will_v abuse_v through_o my_o corruption_n such_o and_o such_o mercy_n lord_n rather_o take_v they_o from_o i_o and_o let_v i_o be_v without_o they_o if_o thou_o see_v that_o there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o break_v this_o proud_a heart_n of_o i_o but_o such_o a_o way_n lord_n let_v that_o be_v thy_o way_n to_o break_v it_o if_o thou_o see_v it_o according_a to_o thy_o will_n as_o the_o fit_a way_n then_o comparative_o thus_o lord_n rather_o let_v i_o have_v any_o afffiction_n than_o sin_n rather_o let_v i_o suffer_v loss_n of_o my_o estate_n than_o sin_n against_o thou_o than_o depart_v from_o thou_o any_o thing_n lord_n rather_o than_o sin_n thus_o you_o may_v pray_v for_o affliction_n but_o not_o absolute_o you_o must_v not_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v send_v you_o affliction_n absolute_o for_o you_o do_v not_o know_v your_o heart_n it_o may_v be_v if_o affliction_n shall_v come_v your_o heart_n may_v be_v as_o stubborn_a under_o your_o affliction_n as_o they_o be_v now_o for_o affliction_n have_v no_o power_n in_o itself_o to_o do_v we_o any_o good_a and_o then_o for_o the_o good_a of_o other_o for_o christ_n teach_v we_o to_o pray_v our_o father_n etc._n etc._n there_o come_v in_o here_o a_o rebuke_n of_o the_o wicked_a practice_n of_o divers_a in_o curse_v and_o then_o a_o question_n about_o it_o it_o be_v a_o wicked_a thing_n to_o use_v curse_n but_o it_o be_v a_o most_o wicked_a thing_n to_o wish_v evil_a to_o other_o in_o way_n of_o prayer_n yet_o how_o many_o do_v so_o though_o it_o may_v be_v they_o do_v not_o think_v it_o they_o speak_v to_o god_n and_o desire_v he_o to_o bring_v such_o and_o such_o evil_n upon_o their_o neighbour_n yea_o sometime_o parent_n upon_o their_o child_n this_o be_v a_o wicked_a practice_n of_o man_n what_o be_v it_o not_o wickedness_n enough_o for_o thou_o to_o have_v any_o desire_n that_o there_o shall_v any_o evil_a befall_v thy_o brother_n but_o will_v thou_o dare_v to_o presume_v to_o call_v god_n to_o be_v a_o instrument_n of_o the_o execution_n of_o thy_o base_a sinful_a wrath_n that_o god_n must_v be_v a_o drudge_n as_o it_o be_v to_o thy_o wrath_n and_o to_o thy_o passion_n this_o be_v abominable_a wickedness_n any_o of_o you_o that_o ever_o have_v be_v guilty_a of_o this_o sin_n of_o curse_v other_o wives_z child_n servant_n or_o friend_n the_o lord_n rebuke_v you_o for_o this_o sin_n how_o far_o have_v thou_o be_v from_o sanctify_a god_n name_v in_o prayer_n whereas_o instead_o of_o sanctify_v the_o holy_a name_n of_o god_n thou_o have_v call_v god_n to_o be_v a_o servant_n and_o a_o drudge_n to_o thy_o passion_n god_n must_v be_v call_v to_o help_v the_o vent_n of_o thy_o passion_n oh_o remember_v this_o you_o that_o have_v be_v at_o sea_n and_o have_v be_v angry_a and_o thing_n not_o go_v according_o to_o your_o mind_n have_v fall_v a_o curse_v and_o wish_v such_o and_o such_o evil_n may_v come_v upon_o those_o you_o be_v angry_a with_o that_o be_v a_o kind_a of_o prayer_n but_o it_o be_v a_o most_o fearful_a take_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o vain_a in_o the_o high_a degree_n and_o certain_o god_n will_v not_o hold_v he_o guiltless_a that_o shall_v so_o take_v his_o name_n in_o vain_a therefore_o be_v humble_v for_o this_o sin_n object_n but_o you_o will_v say_v do_v not_o we_o read_v in_o the_o book_n of_o psalm_n where_o many_o time_n the_o prophet_n david_n do_v curse_v the_o enemy_n of_o god_n and_o wish_n evil_a to_o come_v upon_o they_o answ_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o prophet_n and_o those_o that_o pen_v the_o psalm_n they_o have_v a_o prophetical_a spirit_n and_o those_o place_n that_o you_o read_v that_o be_v in_o a_o way_n of_o curse_v they_o be_v rather_o prophetical_a prediction_n of_o evil_a than_o direful_a
