a_o fiducial_a look_v for_o and_o hasten_v to_o the_o come_n of_o the_o day_n of_o god_n 1._o one_o main_a part_n of_o a_o holy_a conversation_n as_o to_z man_n consist_v in_o a_o irreprochable_a and_o blameless_a course_n of_o righteousness_n when_o christian_n fill_v up_o every_o relation_n capacity_n condition_n opportunity_n and_o duty_n god_n entrust_v they_o with_o when_o man_n perform_v the_o duty_n of_o their_o place_n in_o their_o proper_a place_n such_o christian_n do_v by_o their_o action_n demonstrate_v the_o truth_n of_o their_o principle_n and_o profession_n their_o deed_n as_o well_o as_o their_o word_n be_v a_o good_a apology_n for_o what_o they_o profess_v and_o when_o man_n can_v judge_v concern_v their_o principle_n yet_o they_o may_v and_o do_v judge_n of_o their_o holy_a practice_n and_o conversation_n now_o what_o more_o efficacious_a to_o produce_v such_o a_o irreprochable_a and_o righteous_a conversation_n than_o serious_a expectation_n of_o our_o lord_n approach_v this_o make_v paul_n so_o conscientious_a and_o exact_a in_o his_o conversation_n towards_o all_o man_n act._n 24.15_o 16._o act._n 24.15_o 16._o and_o have_v hope_n towards_o god_n which_o they_o themselves_o also_o allow_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a both_o of_o the_o just_a and_o unjust_a paul_n here_o make_v a_o apology_n for_o himself_o against_o the_o false_a imputation_n of_o the_o pharisee_n and_o he_o bottom_n all_o upon_o a_o principle_n allow_v by_o they_o namely_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o resurrection_n of_o the_o

love_n a_o christian_n shall_v be_v most_o severe_a towards_o himself_o but_o exceed_o moderate_a as_o to_o other_o our_o bless_a lord_n instruct_v we_o both_o by_o his_o exemple_n and_o precept_n that_o there_o be_v not_o a_o more_o evident_a mark_n of_o a_o generous_a heroic_a spirit_n than_o in_o all_o humility_n and_o submission_n to_o condescend_v to_o the_o infirmity_n of_o other_o by_o christian_a moderation_n this_o moderation_n which_o be_v so_o essential_a to_o a_o holy_a conversation_n contain_v in_o it_o several_a ingredient_n i_o shall_v only_o mention_v such_o as_o receive_v a_o peculiar_a influence_n from_o a_o serious_a look_v for_o and_o hasten_v to_o the_o come_n of_o the_o day_n of_o god_n that_o daily_a expectation_n of_o our_o lord_n approach_v have_v a_o very_a sovereign_a influence_n on_o christian_a moderation_n be_v evident_a from_o that_o exhortation_n of_o paul_n 4.5_o phil._n 4.5_o philip._n 4.5_o let_v your_o moderation_n be_v know_v unto_o all_o man_n the_o lord_n be_v at_o hand_n some_o among_o the_o philippian_n be_v as_o it_o seem_v from_o phil._n 3.15_o too_o tenacious_a and_o stiff_a as_o to_o their_o own_o sentiment_n and_o opinion_n the_o philippian_n be_v very_o affectionate_a christian_n but_o want_v knowledge_n and_o jugement_n as_o it_o appear_v from_o phil._n 1.9_o their_o love_n be_v ardent_a but_o not_o so_o judicious_a as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v and_o such_o affectionate_a christian_n be_v most_o prone_a to_o exceed_v in_o intemperate_a immoderate_a zele_n hence_o paul_n here_o exhort_v they_o to_o moderation_n not_o only_o towards_o christian_n but_o to_o all_o man_n and_o what_o argument_n do_v he_o urge_v to_o induce_v they_o hereto_o that_o follow_v the_o lord_n be_v at_o hand_n the_o grand_a motive_n from_o which_o he_o enforce_v his_o exhortation_n be_v the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n but_o i_o descend_v to_o particular_n 1._o serious_n expectation_n of_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n have_v a_o special_a efficace_n on_o moderation_n in_o jugement_n and_o opinion_n it_o be_v no_o small_a piece_n of_o immoderation_n and_o intemperance_n too_o commun_v among_o many_o professor_n to_o impose_v our_o own_o private_a dogme_n and_o opinion_n no_o way_n essential_a or_o fundamental_a to_o save_v faith_n as_o a_o rule_n of_o faith_n on_o other_o this_o seem_v to_o have_v be_v the_o case_n of_o some_o among_o the_o philippian_n who_o paul_n exhort_v to_o moderation_n herein_o and_o that_o from_o this_o ground_n phil._n 3.15_o if_o in_o any_o thing_n you_o be_v otherwise_o mind_v god_n shall_v revele_v even_o this_o unto_o you_o and_o oh_o what_o a_o prevalence_n have_v a_o serious_a expectation_n of_o our_o lord_n second_o come_v to_o keep_v professor_n from_o the_o imposition_n of_o their_o own_o persuasion_n as_o a_o rule_n of_o faith_n on_o other_o such_o as_o daily_o look_v for_o this_o great_a day_n though_o they_o can_v follow_v yet_o they_o dare_v not_o by_o force_n lead_v or_o rule_v other_o perhaps_o they_o can_v embrace_v the_o sentiment_n of_o other_o yet_o they_o dare_v not_o impose_v their_o own_o as_o a_o rule_n of_o faith_n 2._o another_o piece_n of_o christian_a moderation_n consist_v in_o toleration_n or_o forbearance_n of_o other_o as_o to_z injury_n do_v unto_o we_o christian_n love_n be_v exceed_o meek_a and_o passive_a it_o can_v suffer_v much_o injury_n without_o the_o least_o reaction_n special_o when_o it_o have_v the_o come_n of_o the_o day_n of_o god_n in_o its_o eye_n what_o make_v man_n so_o vindictive_a and_o impatient_a under_o injury_n receive_v but_o put_v far_o from_o they_o the_o approach_n of_o their_o lord_n so_o mat._n 24.48_o 49._o but_o and_o if_o that_o evil_a servant_n shall_v say_v in_o his_o heart_n my_o lord_n delay_v his_o come_n and_o shall_v begin_v to_o smite_v his_o fellow_n servant_n etc._n etc._n here_o you_o see_v the_o cause_n why_o the_o evil_a servant_n smite_v his_o fellow_n servant_n be_v because_o he_o say_v in_o his_o heart_n my_o lord_n delay_v his_o come_n what_o make_v the_o rigorous_a servant_n so_o severe_a in_o exact_v the_o hundred_o penny_n due_a from_o his_o fellow_n servant_n but_o a_o groundless_a persuasion_n that_o his_o lord_n will_v not_o call_v he_o to_o a_o account_n for_o the_o ten_o thousand_o talent_n mat._n 18.32_o &_o c_o 3._o serious_n thought_n of_o our_o lord_n approach_v be_v exceed_o efficacious_a to_o keep_v man_n from_o uncharitable_a censure_n which_o be_v another_o part_n of_o christian_a moderation_n wherein_o much_o of_o a_o holy_a conversation_n do_v consist_v oh_o what_o a_o severe_a censorious_a spirit_n have_v many_o professor_n while_o they_o blame_v and_o censure_v other_o how_o just_o do_v they_o fall_v under_o the_o blame_n and_o censure_n of_o uncharitable_a severity_n yea_o how_o rigid_a be_v some_o in_o their_o censure_n of_o other_o man_n rigidness_n yea_o be_v not_o many_o who_o be_v most_o indulgent_a as_o to_o their_o own_o faut_n most_o severe_a in_o censure_v the_o faut_n of_o other_o and_o if_o their_o action_n be_v good_a yet_o how_o prone_a be_v they_o to_o censure_v their_o intention_n and_o whence_o spring_v this_o unchristian_a severity_n but_o from_o a_o want_n of_o regard_n to_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n this_o seem_v to_o have_v be_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o corinthian_n which_o paul_n caution_n they_o against_o 1_o cor._n 4.5_o 4.5_o 1_o cor._n 4.5_o therefore_o judge_v nothing_o before_o the_o time_n until_o the_o lord_n come_v who_o will_v both_o bring_v to_o light_v the_o hide_a thing_n of_o darkness_n and_o will_v make_v manifest_a the_o counsel_n of_o the_o heart_n the_o corinthian_n be_v break_v into_o many_o party_n and_o each_o party_n be_v prone_a to_o judge_v and_o censure_v the_o different_a party_n paul_n here_o give_v check_v to_o these_o censorious_a humour_n and_o what_o argument_n do_v he_o use_v sure_o no_o other_o than_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o that_o universal_a jugement_n which_o will_v ensue_v thereon_o 4._o another_o piece_n of_o christian_a moderation_n consist_v in_o freedom_n from_o secret_a animosity_n grudge_n and_o envy_v against_o other_o some_o professor_n be_v so_o intemperate_a and_o
