though_o we_o be_v admonish_v of_o god_n do_v thou_o love_v god_n glory_n then_o will_v thou_o sure_o admonish_v thy_o brother_n of_o sin_n do_v thou_o love_v thy_o brother_n then_o will_v thou_o

that_o the_o offender_n be_v wherefore_o many_o faithful_a minister_n of_o god_n when_o they_o be_v most_o hot_a they_o have_v most_o heaviness_n in_o their_o soul_n lest_o the_o curse_n which_o they_o must_v needs_o threaten_v do_v turn_n to_o the_o confusion_n of_o the_o person_n who_o they_o threaten_v thus_o we_o see_v this_o zeal_n will_v teach_v we_o neither_o to_o rebuke_v sin_n too_o cold_o nor_o yet_o too_o hot_o for_o we_o shall_v not_o so_o love_n god_n as_o we_o shall_v abuse_v man_n the_o image_n of_o god_n neither_o shall_v we_o so_o love_v man_n as_o we_o shall_v hinder_v or_o impair_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n for_o if_o we_o be_v sorrowful_a that_o god_n be_v offend_v and_o that_o man_n have_v offend_v we_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o make_v a_o holy_a medley_n vers._n 140._o thy_o word_n be_v prove_v most_o pure_a and_o thy_o servant_n love_v it_o here_o the_o prophet_n show_v his_o love_n to_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o zeal_n repeat_v in_o effect_n that_o which_o he_o say_v before_o it_o may_v seem_v strange_a why_o the_o man_n of_o god_n shall_v make_v mention_n of_o this_o so_o oft_o that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v true_a but_o we_o must_v know_v that_o he_o do_v it_o to_o strengthen_v his_o faith_n in_o the_o time_n of_o trouble_n and_o that_o then_o he_o may_v not_o faint_v we_o think_v not_o that_o there_o be_v such_o need_n of_o faith_n because_o we_o feel_v not_o the_o like_a temptation_n for_o they_o that_o zeal_n have_v no_o sight_n of_o their_o corruption_n know_v not_o their_o unbelief_n and_o they_o that_o feel_v not_o their_o

may_v make_v this_o our_o rule_n for_o examination_n why_o be_v we_o so_o cold_a in_o zeal_n even_o because_o we_o be_v cold_a in_o the_o love_n of_o the_o word_n for_o as_o our_o love_n increase_v

this_o than_o we_o see_v in_o the_o nature_n of_o true_a love_n to_o rejoice_v to_o see_v the_o person_n love_v advance_a or_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o love_v esteem_v and_o grieve_v to_o see_v either_o the_o person_n or_o thing_n so_o love_v to_o be_v cast_v down_o and_o contemn_v it_o be_v a_o grief_n even_o to_o the_o heathenish_a philosopher_n to_o see_v their_o doctrine_n not_o regard_v be_v they_o so_o move_v for_o the_o small_a regard_n of_o that_o earthly_a doctrine_n which_o have_v no_o exact_a truth_n in_o it_o but_o be_v mingle_v with_o infinite_a error_n and_o untruth_n and_o

have_v not_o this_o godly_a grief_n in_o we_o it_o be_v a_o manifest_a argument_n that_o our_o love_n be_v very_o cold_a for_o as_o our_o love_n be_v the_o great_a so_o undoubted_o our_o grief_n will_v be_v the_o great_a and_o so_o as_o our_o love_n be_v the_o less_o so_o will_v our_o grief_n to_o see_v the_o thing_n deface_v be_v also_o the_o less_o when_o we_o have_v much_o delight_n in_o any_o thing_n we_o be_v much_o grieve_v and_o who_o be_v more_o grieve_v to_o see_v the_o word_n of_o god_n tread_v down_o than_o the_o godly_a because_o of_o all_o other_o their_o delight_n be_v

to_o make_v that_o a_o occasion_n of_o slothful_a carelessness_n which_o shall_v be_v as_o a_o spur_n to_o make_v we_o more_o careful_a therefore_o when_o the_o thing_n be_v do_v when_o the_o work_n
