that_o thou_o shall_v go_v but_o now_o if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o you_o must_v wander_v you_o shall_v go_v in_o by_o way_n you_o will_v have_v a_o unsound_a heart_n and_o perish_v for_o ever_o second_o if_o you_o will_v have_v heart_n neither_o unsound_a nor_o such_o as_o shall_v make_v you_o ashamed_a at_o the_o last_o day_n keep_v your_o heart_n humble_a and_o low_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n be_v who_o heart_n be_v lift_v up_o in_o he_o be_v not_o right_a as_o habbak_v 2.4_o his_o soul_n be_v not_o sound_a keep_v your_o heart_n humble_a and_o low_a through_o the_o sense_n of_o your_o

will_v he_o guide_v in_o judgement_n and_o the_o meek_a will_v he_o teach_v his_o way_n god_n love_v humble_a and_o low_a and_o meek_a spirit_n and_o v._o 12._o what_o man_n be_v he_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n he_o shall_v he_o teach_v in_o the_o way_n that_o he_o shall_v choose_v no_o man_n fear_v god_n that_o be_v proud_a and_o lift_v up_o no_o man_n that_o be_v humble_a and_o meek_a but_o

let_v i_o entreat_v you_o to_o receive_v the_o whole_a word_n of_o god_n into_o your_o heart_n receive_v the_o whole_a truth_n and_o with_o love_n and_o as_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n first_o receive_v the_o whole_a truth_n for_o if_o you_o be_v partial_a and_o will_v receive_v some_o truth_n and_o not_o all_o you_o show_v your_o heart_n to_o be_v unsound_a and_o you_o will_v be_v ashamed_a psal_n 119.6_o then_o shall_v i_o not_o be_v ashamed_a when_o i_o have_v respect_n unto_o all_o thy_o commandment_n what_o if_o david_n shall_v have_v respect_n to_o all_o but_o one_o he_o will_v be_v ashamed_a and_o confound_v if_o he_o shall_v not_o have_v respect_n unto_o all_o he_o that_o break_v one_o command_n say_v james_n be_v guilty_a of_o all_o second_o receive_v all_o with_o love_n and_o unless_o you_o do_v so_o all_o be_v nothing_o receive_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n because_o they_o be_v holy_a truth_n because_o they_o have_v the_o stamp_n of_o god_n upon_o they_o because_o they_o will_v bring_v you_o to_o god_n and_o glory_n three_o receive_v they_o as_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n 1_o thess_n 2.13_o for_o this_o cause_n also_o thank_v we_o god_n without_o cease_v because_o when_o you_o receive_v the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o you_o hear_v of_o we_o you_o receive_v it_o not_o as_o the_o word_n of_o man_n mark_v many_o say_v the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o minister_n be_v the_o word_n of_o man_n and_o they_o will_v not_o receive_v it_o nor_o hear_v it_o but_o mark_v you_o receive_v it_o as_o it_o be_v in_o truth_n the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o effectual_o work_v in_o you_o that_o believe_v the_o word_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n let_v they_o say_v what_o they_o will_v and_o it_o work_v and_o work_v effectual_o in_o they_o that_o receive_v it_o so_o therefore_o receive_v the_o whole_a word_n receive_v it_o with_o love_n receive_v it_o as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o not_o as_o the_o word_n of_o man_n four_o last_o if_o you_o will_v be_v neither_o unsound_a heart_a nor_o ashamed_a in_o time_n of_o affliction_n in_o a_o hour_n of_o death_n in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n make_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n your_o friend_n whosoever_o have_v christ_n for_o a_o friend_n shall_v never_o be_v ashamed_a but_o if_o christ_n be_v not_o your_o friend_n let_v who_o will_v plead_v for_o you_o you_o will_v be_v ashamed_a you_o must_v be_v confound_v 1_o joh._n 2.1_o if_o any_o man_n sin_n we_o have_v a_o advocate_n with_o the_o father_n jesus_n christ_n the_o righteous_a it_o be_v as_o if_o the_o apostle_n have_v say_v we_o do_v know_v christ_n and_o we_o have_v union_n with_o christ_n and_o interest_n in_o christ_n and_o christ_n be_v our_o friend_n and_o our_o advocate_n and_o he_o will_v plead_v our_o cause_n though_o devil_n accuse_v and_o conscience_n accuse_v yet_o christ_n will_v keep_v we_o from_o shame_n see_v then_o that_o you_o get_v the_o lord_n christ_n to_o be_v your_o friend_n how_o be_v that_o how_o give_v up_o yourselves_o whole_o to_o he_o let_v your_o understanding_n conceive_v of_o his_o worth_n and_o excellency_n that_o he_o have_v all_o fullness_n in_o he_o that_o he_o be_v the_o mediator_n that_o he_o be_v the_o prince_n of_o life_n that_o he_o be_v the_o great_a reconciler_n of_o man_n to_o god_n the_o father_n and_o that_o christ_n invite_v man_n to_o come_v to_o himself_o in_o isa_n 55._o ho_o every_o one_o that_o thirst_v its_o christ_n invitation_n come_v you_o to_o the_o water_n and_o he_o that_o have_v no_o money_n come_v you_o buy_v and_o eat_v yea_o come_v buy_v wine_n

have_v joh._n 15.15_o henceforth_o i_o call_v you_o not_o servant_n for_o the_o servant_n know_v not_o what_o his_o lord_n do_v but_o i_o have_v call_v you_o friend_n if_o you_o choose_v christ_n to_o be_v your_o friend_n he_o will_v own_v you_o and_o call_v you_o friend_n therefore_o receive_v all_o that_o christ_n have_v give_v out_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o all_o that_o i_o have_v hear_v of_o

confusion_n shall_v be_v upon_o you_o to_o all_o eternity_n the_o lord_n teach_v you_o all_o to_o mind_v these_o thing_n and_o to_o remember_v the_o text_n and_o make_v use_n of_o that_o and_o pray_v it_o over_o once_o a_o day_n at_o least_o to_o the_o lord_n lord_n let_v my_o heart_n be_v find_v in_o thy_o statute_n that_o i_o be_v not_o ashamed_a if_o the_o heart_n be_v not_o sound_a you_o

who_o do_v not_o mind_v the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n as_o well_o as_o truth_n itself_o and_o receive_v the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n 2._o thess_n 2.9.10_o say_v the_o apostle_n there_o because_o

unless_o you_o have_v the_o love_n and_o the_o power_n your_o heart_n will_v be_v rot_v and_o unsound_a for_o ever_o therefore_o see_v what_o be_v say_v here_o and_o for_o this_o cause_n god_n shall_v

we_o do_v will_v not_o be_v warrantable_a in_o the_o court_n of_o heaven_n if_o it_o be_v not_o do_v in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n six_o last_o we_o shall_v do_v all_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n because_o this_o be_v to_o live_v a_o christian_a life_n indeed_o it_o be_v say_v of_o all_o man_n that_o in_o god_n they_o live_v and_o move_v all_o man_n in_o the_o common_a providence_n of_o god_n they_o live_v and_o move_v but_o christian_n live_v in_o christ_n he_o be_v their_o life_n and_o hence_o paul_n say_v i_o live_v not_o but_o christ_n live_v in_o i_o i_o do_v not_o live_v as_o a_o man_n or_o as_o a_o learned_a man_n or_o as_o a_o pharisee_fw-mi but_o i_o live_v as_o a_o christian_a i_o live_v nay_o christ_n live_v in_o i_o i_o dont_fw-fr live_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o a_o learned_a man_n or_o a_o natural_a man_n and_o the_o like_a but_o christ_n live_v in_o i_o and_o i_o live_v in_o he_o in_o his_o life_n in_o his_o strength_n in_o his_o will_n in_o his_o mind_n as_o a_o servant_n a_o true_a servant_n when_o he_o come_v to_o a_o house_n where_o he_o be_v to_o be_v a_o servant_n he_o must_v lay_v down_o his_o own_o will_n and_o mind_n and_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o foot_n he_o must_v do_v nothing_o now_o in_o his_o own_o name_n and_o strength_n but_o he_o must_v live_v in_o his_o master_n will_n and_o in_o his_o master_n command_n and_o in_o his_o master_n authority_n so_o a_o christian_a he_o live_v in_o christ_n when_o we_o lie_v down_o our_o own_o will_n and_o reason_n and_o the_o like_a and_o make_v the_o reason_n and_o end_n of_o all_o we_o do_v to_o be_v christ_n then_o be_v we_o christian_n indeed_o christ_n reason_n be_v my_o reason_n christ_n will_n be_v my_o will_n christ_n glory_n be_v my_o end_n christ_n word_n be_v my_o rule_n this_o now_o be_v true_a live_v the_o life_n of_o a_o christian_a thus_o you_o see_v several_a reason_n why_o we_o shall_v do_v all_o in_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n christ_n i_o shall_v now_o come_v to_o some_o inference_n or_o improvement_n of_o the_o point_n inf._n first_o if_o we_o be_v to_o do_v all_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n than_o i_o infer_v from_o hence_o here_o be_v matter_n of_o humiliation_n to_o we_o all_o we_o have_v great_a cause_n to_o be_v humble_v every_o one_o of_o we_o not_o only_o because_o we_o have_v do_v evil_a which_o call_v for_o humble_v to_o or_o because_o we_o have_v neglect_v good_a which_o call_v for_o humble_v also_o but_o humble_v because_o we_o have_v do_v good_a do_v good_a the_o wrong_a way_n do_v good_a in_o our_o own_o name_n in_o our_o own_o strength_n and_o not_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n who_o be_v there_o among_o we_o that_o can_v say_v he_o have_v do_v and_o speak_v all_o in_o

shall_v be_v weigh_v in_o the_o balance_n of_o the_o sanctuary_n there_o will_v be_v defect_n find_v and_o thyself_o will_v be_v too_o light_a and_o thy_o best_a action_n will_v be_v defective_a and_o

be_v as_o filthy_a rag_n what_o filthy_a rag_n thy_o righteousness_n yea_o all_o our_o righteousness_n as_o filthy_a rag_n why_o filthy_a rag_n defile_v we_o many_o think_v o_o their_o good_a work_n

in_o they_o and_o especial_o when_o they_o be_v not_o do_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n according_a to_o his_o will_n and_o in_o his_o strength_n and_o for_o his_o honour_n and_o

and_o deed_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n then_o i_o infer_v that_o no_o thought_n no_o word_n no_o action_n be_v to_o be_v conceive_v utter_v or_o do_v which_o be_v not_o authorize_v
