all_o and_o yet_o you_o do_v not_o cry_v out_o but_o paul_n he_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o guilt_n of_o his_o sin_n yet_o the_o very_a remainder_n of_o sin_n in_o his_o heart_n be_v a_o burden_n to_o he_o there_o be_v much_o sin_n in_o many_o of_o your_o heart_n and_o you_o cry_v not_o out_o of_o it_o paul_n he_o be_v deliver_v and_o yet_o he_o crier_n out_o of_o it_o who_o shall_v deliver_v

so_o make_v some_o application_n of_o it_o first_o then_o in_o what_o respect_n the_o remain_a part_n of_o sin_n and_o corruption_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v a_o burden_n the_o first_o burden_n of_o corruption_n first_o it_o be_v a_o burden_n of_o grief_n unto_o they_o you_o know_v grief_n cause_v heaviness_n and_o sadness_n now_o the_o remainder_n of_o corruption_n that_o they_o find_v in_o they_o it_o be_v as_o lead_v and_o lie_v heavy_a upon_o their_o spirit_n in_o regard_n of_o grief_n it_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o their_o grief_n and_o trouble_n some_o will_v say_v perhaps_o sometime_o to_o other_o such_o and_o such_o that_o be_v professor_n of_o religion_n they_o go_v very_o sad_o and_o heavy_o and_o when_o once_o you_o come_v to_o be_v so_o strict_a in_o your_o way_n you_o will_v loose_v all_o your_o comfort_n for_o such_o and_o such_o be_v always_o sad_a and_o pensive_a but_o do_v you_o know_v what_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o their_o sadness_n you_o

how_o much_o cause_n of_o trouble_n and_o grief_n have_v i_o then_o that_o do_v nothing_o at_o all_o for_o god_n the_o second_o burden_n of_o corruption_n second_o the_o remain_a part_n of_o

upon_o they_o yet_o if_o their_o be_v a_o evil_n apprehend_v to_o come_v upon_o they_o it_o be_v a_o great_a burden_n to_o they_o as_o those_o that_o dare_v not_o go_v out_o of_o door_n in_o the_o

all_o the_o devil_n in_o hell_n can_v do_v to_o he_o for_o they_o can_v afflict_v more_o than_o the_o body_n i_o but_o this_o bring_v a_o evil_a upon_o the_o soul_n it_o break_v their_o communion_n

so_o be_v afraid_a of_o miscarry_v and_o afraid_a of_o the_o evil_a consequence_n of_o their_o sin_n they_o do_v not_o know_v what_o mischief_n their_o sin_n may_v possible_o bring_v upon_o they_o and_o so_o they_o go_v under_o this_o burden_n of_o fear_n along_o time_n together_o even_o those_o that_o be_v true_o godly_a the_o four_o burden_n of_o corruption_n four_o the_o remain_a part_n of_o

thou_o so_o much_o as_o from_o his_o son_n in_o one_o regard_n that_o be_v thou_o have_v not_o such_o a_o dreadful_a apprehension_n of_o god_n withdraw_v from_o thou_o as_o christ_n have_v for_o christ_n will_v never_o have_v cry_v out_o else_o my_o god_n my_o god_n why_o have_v thou_o forsake_v i_o this_o be_v a_o real_a thing_n christ_n do_v not_o speak_v at_o uncertainty_n he_o do_v feel_v a_o withdraw_n of_o the_o influence_n sweetness_n and_o comfort_n of_o the_o lord_n though_o still_o he_o have_v union_n with_o he_o by_o nature_n and_o he_o be_v his_o father_n as_o before_o but_o the_o human_a nature_n do_v not_o feel_v the_o influence_n of_o the_o grace_n and_o sweetness_n and_o the_o shine_n of_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n as_o at_o other_o time_n and_o therefore_o he_o cry_v out_o my_o god_n my_o god_n why_o have_v thou_o forsake_v i_o exercise_v thy_o faith_n upon_o christ_n as_o one_o that_o be_v in_o spiritual_a desertion_n it_o be_v true_a perhaps_o that_o christ_n do_v not_o come_v to_o determine_v himself_o that_o he_o be_v utter_o forsake_v as_o thou_o do_v but_o christ_n be_v apprehensive_a of_o god_n withdraw_v himself_o and_o therefore_o this_o may_v bring_v ease_n and_o rest_v unto_o thy_o soul_n and_o the_o rather_o because_o that_o his_o be_v so_o forsake_v it_o be_v to_o sanctify_v thy_o be_v forsake_v it_o be_v to_o take_v away_o the_o curse_n of_o those_o desertion_n that_o thou_o have_v in_o thyself_o such_o desertion_n as_o be_v in_o any_o affliction_n material_o they_o be_v a_o curse_n they_o be_v such_o thing_n as_o in_o their_o own_o nature_n be_v a_o curse_n christ_n be_v so_o forsake_v by_o the_o father_n do_v take_v away_o the_o curse_n that_o be_v in_o spiritual_a desertion_n and_o there_o be_v no_o such_o way_n

that_o i_o may_v not_o be_v eternal_o forsake_v so_o there_o be_v these_o three_o thing_n in_o look_v up_o to_o christ_n as_o forsake_v first_o thou_o see_v that_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v the_o belove_a son_n of_o god_n be_v forsake_v forsake_v by_o god_n second_o here_o thou_o may_v see_v the_o merit_n of_o this_o that_o it_o be_v to_o sanctify_v thy_o forsake_v that_o thy_o forsake_v may_v not_o be_v a_o curse_n to_o thou_o three_o it_o be_v that_o thou_o may_v not_o be_v eternal_o forsake_v by_o god_n so_o that_o by_o exercise_v of_o thy_o faith_n thus_o upon_o he_o thou_o may_v get_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o rest_n and_o ease_n unto_o thy_o soul_n a_o carnal_a heart_n when_o he_o find_v this_o terror_n of_o spirit_n he_o run_v to_o his_o company_n music_n good_a cheer_n and_o business_n of_o the_o world_n but_o a_o gracious_a heart_n run_v to_o christ_n and_o go_v to_o he_o that_o be_v thus_o forsake_v of_o the_o lord_n for_o he_o second_o if_o thou_o be_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o spiritual_a desertion_n then_o look_v up_o to_o christ_n as_o be_v such_o a_o mediator_n as_o be_v full_a of_o grace_n and_o goodness_n there_o be_v such_o a_o fullness_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o he_o as_o make_v he_o a_o sufficient_a object_n for_o the_o faith_n of_o adherence_n when_o he_o can_v be_v unto_o i_o a_o object_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o evidence_n i_o say_v we_o be_v to_o exercise_v faith_n upon_o christ_n when_o we_o be_v under_o this_o burden_n of_o spiritual_a desertion_n thus_o we_o be_v to_o look_v upon_o christ_n as_o be_v the_o fullness_n of_o the_o godhead_n of_o all_o the_o treasure_n of_o grace_n and_o goodness_n have_v so_o much_o of_o the_o grace_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o he_o as_o shall_v make_v he_o a_o fit_a object_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o adherence_n though_o he_o be_v not_o now_o to_o i_o a_o object_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o evidence_n quest_n you_o will_v say_v what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o i_o mean_v by_o the_o faith_n of_o evidence_n that_o i_o be_o able_a to_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v i_o and_o i_o have_v a_o argument_n to_o persuade_v my_o conscience_n that_o he_o be_v i_o that_o be_v the_o faith_n of_o evidence_n but_o yet_o there_o be_v enough_o in_o christ_n to_o draw_v forth_o the_o soul_n to_o re●t_v upon_o he_o from_o the_o faith_n of_o adherence_n that_o be_v thus_o though_o i_o can_v draw_v argument_n to_o rely_v upon_o christ_n as_o i_o yet_o i_o will_v cleave_v to_o he_o and_o adhere_v to_o he_o i_o know_v there_o be_v no_o help_n but_o here_o and_o therefore_o here_o i_o will_v cleave_v and_o cling_v here_o now_o be_v the_o faith_n of_o adherence_n now_o because_o there_o be_v so_o much_o grace_n in_o it_o therefore_o christ_n may_v be_v a_o great_a object_n of_o thy_o faith_n of_o adherence_n when_o thou_o can_v not_o see_v he_o to_o be_v a_o object_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o evidence_n and_o that_o be_v a_o way_n to_o help_v the_o soul_n in_o time_n of_o spiritual_a desertion_n when_o many_o poor_a soul_n be_v under_o spiritual_a affliction_n and_o desertion_n they_o think_v of_o no_o other_o faith_n to_o rest_v upon_o christ_n but_o bare_o upon_o the_o faith_n of_o evidence_n and_o when_o they_o have_v evidence_n to_o their_o soul_n that_o christ_n be_v they_o and_o that_o from_o some_o fruit_n of_o grace_n in_o they_o than_o they_o rely_v upon_o he_o but_o now_o learn_v that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o faith_n the_o faith_n of_o adherence_n and_o christ_n may_v appear_v to_o a_o soul_n as_o a_o fit_a object_n to_o the_o soul_n for_o the_o faith_n of_o adherence_n when_o he_o can_v be_v to_o it_o a_o object_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o evidence_n three_o another_o help_n to_o the_o soul_n that_o be_v under_o spiritual_a desertion_n

to_o that_o from_o hence_o follow_v exceed_v help_n unto_o believer_n against_o divers_a temptation_n that_o do_v exceed_o trouble_v the_o peace_n and_o rest_n of_o their_o soul_n if_o they_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o law_n in_o those_o several_a respect_n as_o at_o large_a have_v be_v open_v to_o you_o 1._o then_o first_o from_o the_o meditation_n of_o this_o their_o delivery_n they_o may_v have_v rest_n and_o ease_n from_o this_o temptation_n that_o because_o of_o some_o imperfection_n weakness_n and_o distemper_n of_o heart_n and_o sin_n that_o they_o be_v guilty_a of_o therefore_o they_o have_v no_o interest_n at_o all_o in_o christ_n they_o have_v no_o interest_n to_o believe_v in_o christ_n because_o of_o that_o the_o strength_n of_o this_o temptation_n can_v stand_v with_o the_o right_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n as_o deliver_v from_o the_o law_n if_o christ_n deliver_v from_o the_o law_n than_o a_o interest_n in_o christ_n may_v stand_v though_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o keep_v the_o law_n yea_o and_o further_o we_o know_v this_o that_o it_o be_v usual_a with_o believer_n upon_o the_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n in_o any_o thing_n to_o call_v their_o estate_n

will_v marvellous_o help_v against_o this_o temptation_n likewise_o that_o god_n accept_v not_o of_o what_o we_o do_v because_o it_o be_v not_o perfect_a because_o it_o be_v not_o complete_a when_o believer_n look_v upon_o their_o duty_n that_o they_o do_v perform_v and_o see_v so_o many_o imperfection_n in_o they_o they_o dare_v not_o tender_v they_o up_o to_o god_n god_n be_v a_o infinite_a

have_v to_o deal_v with_o he_o in_o christ_n through_o a_o better_a covenant_n than_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o law_n 3._o further_o this_o will_v help_v against_o this_o temptation_n also_o that_o many_o time_n be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o saint_n that_o because_o they_o hear_v of_o divers_a that_o have_v seem_v to_o have_v more_o than_o they_o have_v that_o have_v have_v more_o ability_n

have_v they_o the_o strength_n of_o a_o angel_n yet_o if_o not_o bring_v under_o this_o covenant_n of_o grace_n make_v with_o believer_n in_o christ_n they_o will_v fall_v and_o come_v to_o nothing_o

this_o in_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o law_n in_o that_o sense_n as_o have_v be_v show_v before_o likewise_o from_o hence_o there_o be_v a_o great_a many_o lesson_n to_o be_v learn_v as_o the_o first_o lesson_n first_o from_o this_o deliverance_n we_o be_v teach_v to_o entertain_v the_o hear_n of_o the_o threat_n of_o the_o law_n i_o speak_v to_o believer_n though_o other_o may_v make_v a_o

the_o law_n you_o hear_v dreadful_a threat_n of_o the_o law_n out_o of_o god_n word_n against_o sin_n now_o how_o shall_v thou_o entertain_v these_o threat_n the_o way_n be_v this_o when_o thou_o hear_v such_o threat_n know_v that_o god_n by_o this_o will_v have_v thou_o to_o consider_v what_o his_o mercy_n be_v in_o deliver_v of_o thou_o from_o what_o thou_o have_v deserve_v god_n will_v have_v thou_o to_o consider_v what_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n be_v in_o itself_o and_o to_o consider_v what_o christ_n have_v do_v god_n will_v have_v thou_o to_o be_v drive_v to_o christ_n by_o this_o mean_n to_o see_v thy_o need_n of_o christ_n to_o bless_v his_o name_n for_o christ_n and_o to_o prize_n christ_n who_o have_v deliver_v thou_o from_o these_o threaten_n a_o believer_n when_o he_o hear_v the_o threat_n of_o the_o law_n be_v like_o a_o man_n that_o stand_v upon_o the_o shore_n when_o there_o be_v a_o grievous_a tempest_n and_o storm_n he_o see_v the_o wave_n rise_v high_a hear_v the_o wind_n blow_v and_o the_o wave_n roar_v but_o he_o stand_v safe_a upon_o the_o haven_n indeed_o he_o be_v in_o the_o storm_n and_o tempest_n but_o god_n have_v bring_v he_o to_o the_o haven_n and_o there_o he_o stand_v and_o bless_v god_n it_o may_v be_v he_o see_v other_o ship_n a_o great_a way_n off_o ready_a to_o be_v split_v upon_o the_o rock_n or_o swallow_v up_o but_o he_o be_v safe_a on_o the_o shore_n so_o it_o shall_v be_v with_o all_o believer_n when_o they_o hear_v the_o threaten_n of_o the_o law_n they_o shall_v entertain_v they_o with_o blessing_n
