the_o work_n be_v so_o far_o accept_v as_o it_o have_v a_o operation_n on_o our_o heart_n and_o affection_n duty_n it_o be_v so_o in_o every_o duty_n as_o in_o prayer_n when_o you_o call_v on_o god_n in_o private_a do_v god_n regard_v the_o word_n of_o a_o prayer_n no_o but_o '_o its_o work_n on_o your_o heart_n '_o it_o be_v humble_v of_o they_o '_o it_o be_v bring_v of_o they_o into_o frame_n and_o make_v they_o perfect_a with_o god_n every_o day_n by_o a_o thorough_a renew_n of_o your_o repentance_n and_o this_o be_v the_o do_v of_o the_o thing_n among_o your_o self_n if_o a_o servant_n do_v only_o make_v a_o show_n of_o do_v a_o thing_n it_o be_v not_o regard_v but_o he_o that_o bring_v the_o thing_n to_o pass_v be_v accept_v of_o you_o and_o that_o be_v it_o which_o the_o lord_n require_v and_o accept_v in_o our_o performance_n now_o we_o shall_v see_v that_o this_o text_n will_v help_v we_o to_o all_o that_o be_v require_v in_o a_o fast_a as_o will_v appear_v in_o the_o particular_n 1.2_o phineas_n the_o son_n of_o eleazar_n etc._n etc._n in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o the_o chapter_n the_o disease_n be_v set_v down_o wrath_n and_o that_o be_v sin_n which_o be_v indeed_o the_o only_a disease_n of_o the_o soul_n illustrate_v from_o two_o consequent_n first_o from_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n who_o as_o the_o text_n say_v be_v very_o angry_a with_o israel_n for_o they_o have_v commit_v whoredom_n and_o join_v with_o baal-peor_n 3._o that_o be_v the_o disease_n the_o sin_n for_o which_o they_o have_v bring_v on_o they_o god_n wrath_n plague_n and_o second_o from_o a_o effect_n of_o that_o wrath_n the_o plague_n god_n strike_v they_o with_o pestilence_n that_o be_v the_o punishment_n wrath_n in_o this_o verse_n be_v set_v down_o the_o remedy_n and_o that_o be_v the_o turn_v away_o of_o god_n wrath_n for_o as_o the_o physician_n say_v morbi_fw-la curantur_fw-la contrarijs_fw-la so_o it_o be_v true_a in_o divinity_n as_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o plague_n so_o the_o turn_v away_o thereof_o be_v the_o remedy_n this_o turn_v away_o of_o his_o wrath_n be_v set_v forth_o by_o the_o cause_n of_o its_o turn_n away_o reason_n and_o that_o be_v the_o zeal_n of_o phineas_n while_o he_o be_v zealous_a for_o my_o sake_n and_o that_o be_v make_v good_a by_o two_o reason_n one_o be_v in_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o my_o text_n therefore_o have_v i_o not_o consume_v they_o in_o my_o jealousy_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v if_o phineas_n have_v not_o be_v zealous_a my_o jealous_a shall_v have_v burn_v more_o and_o more_o and_o the_o jealousy_n of_o that_o shall_v have_v be_v utter_a destruction_n the_o second_o be_v god_n own_o testimony_n set_v down_o before_o my_o text._n the_o lord_n himself_o say_v unto_o moses_n that_o his_o wrath_n be_v turn_v away_o i_o will_v say_v no_o more_o for_o open_v the_o word_n but_o in_o they_o you_o shall_v see_v these_o five_o point_n lie_v evident_o before_o you_o text_n first_o in_o that_o the_o removal_n of_o the_o plague_n be_v attribute_v to_o god_n and_o to_o the_o turn_v away_o of_o his_o anger_n this_o be_v clear_o deduce_v that_o it_o be_v god_n only_o that_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a for_o you_o see_v his_o anger_n bring_v the_o plague_n on_o they_o and_o the_o turn_n away_o of_o his_o anger_n heal_v they_o again_o second_o it_o be_v sin_n that_o cause_v god_n anger_n anger_n in_o god_n have_v always_o relation_n to_o sin_n for_o sin_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o three_o the_o way_n to_o turn_v away_o the_o lord_n anger_n be_v zeal_n for_o his_o sake_n four_o if_o there_o be_v want_n of_o this_o zeal_n among_o we_o his_o jealousy_n shall_v grow_v hot_a and_o hot_a it_o shall_v increase_v upon_o we_o more_o and_o more_o five_o and_o last_o the_o issue_n of_o this_o jealousy_n of_o he_o will_v be_v utter_a destruction_n we_o will_v begin_v with_o the_o first_o point_n which_o be_v that_o it_o be_v god_n only_o evil_a that_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a to_o every_o nation_n to_o every_o church_n and_o kingdom_n yea_o to_o every_o particular_a person_n as_o you_o see_v here_o it_o be_v not_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o air_n that_o bring_v the_o plague_n nor_o the_o clear_n of_o it_o with_o frost_n and_o wind_n that_o turn_v it_o away_o but_o the_o cloud_n of_o the_o lord_n wrath_n shed_v this_o storm_n on_o they_o and_o when_o he_o be_v appease_v with_o they_o there_o follow_v health_n and_o peace_n the_o lord_n wound_n and_o the_o lord_n heal_v for_o what_o be_v the_o plague_n but_o a_o sword_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o angel_n who_o draw_v it_o out_o and_o put_v it_o into_o its_o sheath_n again_o at_o his_o master_n appointment_n and_o be_v not_o there_o the_o same_o reason_n of_o all_o other_o evil_n war_n you_o know_v be_v a_o terrible_a thing_n when_o enemy_n come_v as_o bee_n on_o a_o land_n but_o do_v not_o the_o lord_n hiss_v for_o they_o and_o again_o they_o be_v drive_v away_o as_o with_o a_o breath_n at_o his_o appointment_n famine_n be_v a_o lean_a devour_a evil_a which_o cause_v the_o land_n to_o eat_v up_o the_o inhabitant_n thereof_o but_o be_v not_o the_o lord_n the_o only_a cause_n of_o it_o do_v not_o he_o make_v the_o heaven_n as_o brass_n and_o the_o earth_n as_o iron_n do_v not_o he_o when_o he_o will_v open_v the_o window_n of_o heaven_n and_o unstop_v the_o bottle_n of_o the_o cloud_n and_o power_n outraine_v unreasonable_o and_o be_v not_o he_o the_o cause_n of_o death_n which_o be_v the_o journey_n end_n of_o both_o the_o former_a to_o which_o every_o one_o of_o we_o be_v subject_a yet_o we_o consider_v it_o not_o though_o we_o see_v man_n fall_v from_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n every_o moment_n yet_o we_o regard_v it_o not_o this_o the_o lord_n take_v only_o to_o himself_o psal._n 68.20_o to_o the_o lord_n belong_v the_o issue_n from_o death_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o give_v to_o the_o lord_n this_o great_a prerogative_n of_o he_o that_o he_o only_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a and_o let_v no_o man_n question_v it_o you_o will_v say_v who_o do_v question_v it_o it_o be_v very_o true_a we_o do_v not_o question_v it_o in_o word_n but_o if_o we_o question_v it_o in_o our_o deed_n it_o be_v a_o argument_n that_o our_o heart_n make_v a_o doubt_n of_o it_o though_o our_o tongue_n do_v not_o question_v it_o therefore_o let_v we_o examine_v the_o matter_n if_o we_o think_v the_o lord_n only_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a point_n why_o then_o will_v not_o we_o obey_v he_o and_o serve_v he_o and_o please_v he_o in_o all_o thing_n but_o provoke_v he_o to_o anger_n by_o our_o word_n and_o by_o our_o work_n as_o the_o prophet_n speak_v perhaps_o you_o will_v say_v to_o i_o sin_v as_o saul_n answer_v samuel_n when_o he_o come_v from_o the_o war_n of_o the_o amalekite_n oh_o thou_o bless_a of_o the_o lord_n i_o have_v full_o keep_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o say_v samuel_n if_o thou_o have_v do_v so_o what_o mean_v the_o bleat_a of_o the_o sheep_n and_o the_o low_v of_o the_o ox_n so_o i_o say_v to_o you_o if_o you_o obey_v the_o lord_n what_o mean_v so_o many_o sin_n among_o we_o what_o mean_v fornication_n and_o whoredom_n which_o be_v so_o frequent_a what_o mean_v those_o oath_n among_o we_o for_o which_o the_o land_n mourn_v not_o only_o great_a oath_n but_o small_a oath_n which_o exceed_v the_o great_a for_o frequency_n though_o the_o great_a exceed_v they_o in_o that_o they_o take_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o vain_a again_o what_o mean_v the_o breach_n of_o the_o sabbath_n of_o which_o i_o will_v speak_v a_o word_n by_o the_o way_n and_o that_o you_o may_v know_v that_o i_o do_v not_o blame_v you_o for_o that_o as_o a_o sin_n which_o be_v no_o sin_n i_o will_v make_v this_o digression_n do_v you_o not_o think_v that_o sabbath_n be_v to_o be_v keep_v sanctify_v and_o to_o be_v keep_v holy_a i_o will_v name_v but_o two_o reason_n to_o make_v it_o good_a you_o shall_v find_v they_o in_o isaiah_n 57.30_o it_o be_v my_o holy_a day_n first_o it_o be_v a_o holy_a day_n and_o if_o it_o be_v holy_a you_o may_v do_v nothing_o thereon_o that_o be_v common_a a_o vessel_n that_o be_v sanctify_v and_o make_v holy_a day_n may_v not_o be_v employ_v to_o take_v up_o common_a water_n or_o use_v in_o common_a service_n for_o it_o be_v holy_a so_o the_o time_n of_o the_o sabbath_n be_v holy_a therefore_o you_o must_v not_o spend_v it_o about_o common_a action_n for_o if_o you_o do_v you_o profane_a that_o which_o be_v holy_a day_n seeond_o it_o be_v my_o day_n and_o if_o it_o be_v my_o day_n rob_v i_o

be_v fall_v into_o sin_n continue_v in_o it_o the_o guilt_n and_o power_n of_o it_o remain_v upon_o his_o soul_n and_o he_o excuse_v himself_o with_o the_o smallness_n of_o it_o 5.18_o this_o be_v a_o common_a fault_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v press_v it_o the_o more_o consider_v that_o which_o christ_n say_v heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v but_o the_o least_o jot_n of_o this_o law_n shall_v not_o pass_v what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o it_o be_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v something_n in_o the_o law_n of_o god_n you_o may_v think_v small_a which_o be_v but_o ïotas_fw-la though_o other_o thing_n be_v great_a but_o take_v you_o heed_n that_o you_o keep_v every_o particular_a for_o there_o be_v not_o a_o jot_n of_o it_o but_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v all_o his_o servant_n regard_v it_o exact_o they_o shall_v have_v respect_n to_o every_o commandment_n and_o to_o every_o part_n of_o that_o commandment_n the_o least_o particular_a in_o his_o law_n shall_v not_o pass_v away_o for_o consider_v if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o it_o will_v be_v a_o prejudice_n to_o the_o lord_n wisdom_n for_o there_o will_v be_v something_o that_o he_o command_v which_o we_o may_v slight_v but_o the_o lord_n that_o have_v command_v all_o both_o great_a and_o small_a know_v that_o it_o be_v best_o that_o all_o shall_v be_v keep_v and_o therefore_o though_o heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v yet_o the_o least_o jot_n of_o that_o law_n shall_v not_o pass_v that_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o place_n you_o may_v see_v by_o christ_n exposition_n of_o the_o law_n the_o pharisy_n say_v adultery_n must_v not_o be_v commit_v but_o i_o say_v say_v christ_n he_o that_o lust_n have_v commit_v adultery_n in_o his_o heart_n they_o say_v you_o must_v not_o swear_v by_o the_o temple_n but_o i_o say_v swear_v ●ot_n at_o all_o they_o say_v a_o eye_n for_o a_o eye_n and_o a_o tooth_n for_o a_o tooth_n but_o i_o say_v you_o must_v forgive_v your_o brethren_n thus_o we_o must_v labour_v to_o resist_v sin_n in_o every_o even_o the_o least_o particular_a and_o reform_v ourselves_o in_o the_o omission_n of_o the_o least_o particle_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o much_o likewise_o for_o the_o second_o point_n three_o wrath_n we_o come_v now_o to_o consider_v what_o it_o be_v that_o turn_v away_o his_o wrath_n and_o that_o be_v zeal_n phineas_n have_v turn_v away_o my_o wrath_n while_o he_o be_v zealous_a for_o my_o sake_n so_o that_o zeal_n turn_v away_o the_o lord_n wrath_n you_o shall_v see_v it_o exemplefy_v in_o elijah_n answer_n to_o the_o lord_n demand_v instance_n 1_o king_n 19.4_o what_o do_v thou_o here_o elijah_n elijah_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v what_o have_v thou_o do_v abroad_o in_o the_o world_n say_v he_o i_o have_v be_v zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n because_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n have_v break_v thy_o covenant_n throw_v down_o thy_o altar_n and_o kill_v thy_o prophet_n and_o i_o only_o be_o escape_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v i_o have_v do_v the_o most_o i_o can_v for_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o church_n i_o have_v be_v zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o he_o prevail_v with_o god_n for_o his_o own_o deliverance_n you_o may_v see_v it_o likewise_o in_o jehu_n who_o be_v zealous_a not_o in_o word_n only_o but_o in_o deed_n also_o turn_v away_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o lord_n lukewarmenesse_a and_o you_o may_v know_v it_o by_o the_o contrary_a that_o it_o be_v zeal_n that_o turn_v away_o the_o lord_n wrath_n because_o it_o be_v coldness_n and_o lukewarmenesse_a that_o bring_v on_o his_o wrath_n rev._n 3.16_o consider_v there_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n will_v spew_v out_o the_o church_n of_o laodicea_n and_o cast_v it_o away_o because_o it_o be_v lukewarm_a and_o therefore_o the_o mean_n to_o continue_v or_o procure_v his_o favour_n be_v it_o not_o heat_n and_o zeal_n again_o rev._n 2.4_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n fall_v from_o her_o first_o love_n what_o then_o therefore_o i_o will_v come_v against_o thou_o short_o and_o remove_v thy_o candlestick_n then_o to_o abound_v in_o love_n so_o that_o our_o work_n may_v be_v more_o at_o last_o than_o at_o first_o to_o be_v zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o way_n to_o stay_v the_o lord_n among_o we_o and_o to_o continue_v his_o gospel_n of_o peace_n sin_n therefore_o by_o the_o way_n it_o be_v not_o only_o the_o great_a sin_n of_o the_o land_n that_o be_v cause_n of_o god_n wrath_n but_o the_o coldness_n of_o they_o that_o be_v otherwise_o good_a that_o cause_v the_o lord_n to_o remove_v the_o candlestick_n the_o very_a coldness_n of_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n in_o fall_v from_o her_o first_o love_n the_o lukewarmenesse_a of_o the_o laodicean_n the_o lord_n will_v not_o endure_v in_o they_o let_v every_o man_n consider_v this_o be_v his_o zeal_n now_o as_o much_o as_o it_o have_v be_v if_o not_o let_v we_o know_v that_o it_o be_v reckon_v coldness_n and_o lukewarmenesse_a the_o fall_v from_o our_o first_o love_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o bring_v god_n judgement_n on_o a_o nation_n but_o what_o be_v this_o zeal_n zeal_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o intention_n of_o all_o holy_a affection_n and_o action_n i_o will_v go_v no_o further_o than_o this_o text_n to_o show_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o phineas_n be_v zealous_a affection_n that_o be_v he_o not_o only_o do_v the_o thing_n but_o his_o heart_n burn_v within_o he_o with_o zeal_n for_o god._n so_o as_o first_o there_o must_v be_v a_o stir_v up_o of_o affection_n lord_n second_o it_o must_v be_v holy_a it_o must_v be_v for_o the_o lord_n and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o discover_v true_a zeal_n to_o look_v only_o to_o the_o lord_n to_o have_v no_o by-respect_n as_o there_o may_v be_v zeal_n that_o make_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o hea●e_n and_o yet_o it_o come_v from_o the_o earth_n although_o it_o make_v as_o great_a a_o show_n as_o the_o best_a again_o action_n there_o must_v be_v intention_n not_o only_o of_o affection_n but_o also_o of_o action_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v while_o he_o be_v zealous_a for_o my_o sake_n among_o they_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v this_o zeal_n of_o phineas_n be_v not_o keep_v smother_v in_o his_o own_o breast_n but_o it_o brak●_n forth_o into_o action_n he_o do_v something_o for_o the_o lord_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v action_n that_o glorify_v god_n and_o that_o benefit_n man_n only_a action_n stand_v on_o our_o reckon_n for_o you_o know_v god_n judge_v every_o man_n according_a to_o his_o work_n it_o be_v action_n that_o do_v ourselves_o good_a that_o make_v we_o useful_a and_o serviceable_a to_o man_n and_o the_o church_n that_o make_v we_o instrument_n of_o god_n glory_n therefore_o add_v action_n to_o affection_n and_o know_v that_o zeal_n stand_v in_o both_o for_o it_o be_v the_o intention_n of_o holy_a action_n and_o affection_n i_o will_v add_v no_o more_o in_o the_o explication_n but_o will_v brief_o apply_v it_o 1_o and_o first_o if_o it_o be_v zeal_n that_o turn_v away_o the_o lord_n wrath_n zealous_a then_o why_o shall_v we_o discourage_v zeal_n by_o it_o i_o dare_v be_v bold_a to_o say_v the_o city_n stand_v why_o do_v

to_o raise_v they_o again_o to_o preach_v remission_n of_o sin_n three_o to_o teach_v the_o doctrine_n of_o sanctification_n these_o three_o humiliation_n justification_n and_o sanctification_n be_v the_o three_o main_a thing_n wherein_o our_o condition_n to_o god_n consist_v therefore_o my_o intent_n be_v to_o go_v through_o these_o three_o and_o we_o will_v do_v it_o brief_o begin_v with_o this_o text_n which_o we_o have_v in_o hand_n the_o occasion_n whereof_o be_v this_o paul_n tell_v the_o roman_n that_o his_o intent_n be_v to_o come_v to_o they_o but_o what_o shall_v he_o do_v there_o he_o will_v preach_v the_o gospel_n yea_o but_o it_o be_v a_o ignominious_a thing_n to_o be_v a_o christian_n a_o thing_n that_o will_v expose_v he_o to_o much_o persecution_n and_o shame_n it_o be_v no_o matter_n say_v he_o i_o be_o not_o ashamed_a of_o the_o gospel_n for_o it_o be_v the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o salvation_n but_o how_o do_v he_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o salvation_n we_o see_v that_o in_o the_o gospel_n the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v that_o be_v there_o be_v no_o way_n in_o the_o world_n for_o man_n to_o be_v justify_v to_o be_v count_v righteous_a before_o god_n but_o to_o have_v a_o righteousness_n reveal_v from_o heaven_n even_o another_o kind_n of_o righteousness_n than_o any_o man_n have_v in_o himself_o a_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n a_o righteousness_n that_o be_v to_o be_v impute_v to_o man_n and_o this_o say_v he_o be_v reveal_v in_o the_o gospel_n and_o therefore_o the_o gospel_n only_o be_v the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o salvation_n but_o here_o come_v the_o great_a question_n why_o be_v it_o needful_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o new_a kind_n of_o righteousness_n reveal_v a_o righteousness_n wrought_v by_o another_o and_o make_v we_o only_o but_o by_o imputation_n say_v he_o it_o must_v be_v so_o else_o no_o flesh_n can_v be_v save_v every_o man_n must_v needs_o be_v condemn_v for_o all_o man_n be_v unrighteous_a every_o man_n be_v full_a of_o all_o impiety_n and_o wickedness_n which_o he_o deliver_v in_o this_o verse_n thence_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v needful_a to_o have_v the_o gospel_n reveal_v for_o that_o be_v it_o that_o reveal_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ._n a_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v only_o wrought_v by_o christ_n and_o will_v only_o stand_v out_o before_o the_o judgement-seat_n of_o god_n so_o that_o the_o end_n of_o the_o word_n be_v to_o convince_v man_n to_o show_v unto_o they_o that_o they_o have_v no_o righteousness_n of_o their_o own_o to_o assure_v they_o that_o if_o they_o stand_v in_o the_o condition_n they_o be_v in_o by_o nature_n they_o remain_v in_o condemnation_n for_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v condemn_v already_o there_o need_v no_o new_a condemnation_n ult_n if_o he_o have_v not_o the_o son_n the_o wrath_n of_o god_n abide_v on_o he_o 1._o so_o that_o the_o main_a thing_n in_o these_o word_n be_v this_o assertion_n unrighteousness_n that_o man_n nature_n be_v full_a of_o ungodliness_n and_o unrighteousness_n two_o thing_n be_v charge_v upon_o man_n nature_n first_o a_o fullness_n of_o all_o kind_n of_o sin_n against_o god_n second_o of_o all_o injustice_n and_o unrighteousness_n to_o man_n one_o touch_v the_o first_o table_n the_o other_o the_o second_o now_o when_o he_o say_v all_o ungodliness_n and_o all_o unrighteousness_n of_o man_n the_o meaning_n be_v that_o in_o man_n nature_n there_o be_v all_o kind_n of_o ungodliness_n and_o unrighteousness_n of_o all_o sort_n and_o again_o that_o be_v to_o be_v mark_v unrighteousness_n of_o man_n he_o set_v it_o down_o in_o general_a because_o he_o speak_v it_o of_o all_o man_n none_o except_v so_o you_o must_v take_v both_o in_o every_o man_n none_o except_v be_v full_a of_o all_o unrighteousness_n all_o impiety_n all_o part_n of_o impiety_n all_o kind_n of_o unrighteousness_n be_v find_v in_o he_o but_o how_o will_v this_o be_v prove_v he_o prove_v it_o by_o two_o argument_n first_o because_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v against_o every_o man_n and_o god_n be_v a_o just_a judge_n his_o wrath_n will_v not_o be_v kindle_v against_o man_n except_o there_o be_v just_a cause_n and_o that_o be_v one_o argument_n but_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v that_o god_n be_v angry_a with_o man_n say_v he_o it_o be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n whence_o three_o thing_n may_v be_v note_v for_o thence_o you_o may_v see_v the_o evidence_n of_o his_o wrath_n it_o be_v reveal_v and_o second_o the_o sureness_n of_o it_o it_o come_v from_o heaven_n and_o god_n will_v be_v as_o good_a as_o his_o word_n and_o three_o the_o terriblenesse_n of_o it_o it_o be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n for_o when_o god_n be_v say_v to_o sit_v in_o heaven_n and_o to_o laugh_v they_o to_o scorn_v and_o 2_o cor._n 6._o to_o sit_v in_o heaven_n it_o argue_v he_o do_v thing_n powerful_o but_o you_o will_v ask_v how_o be_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n reveal_v from_o heaven_n it_o be_v reveal_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n every_o man_n have_v so_o much_o light_n in_o he_o as_o to_o know_v that_o he_o deserve_v wrath_n and_o judgement_n and_o punishment_n and_o partly_o it_o be_v reveal_v by_o the_o scripture_n and_o partly_o by_o continual_a experience_n god_n be_v ever_o and_o anon_o execute_v his_o wrath_n and_o judgement_n on_o sinner_n and_o that_o be_v the_o first_o argument_n the_o second_o argument_n to_o prove_v their_o unrighteousness_n be_v because_o they_o withhold_a the_o truth_n in_o unrighteousness_n and_o here_o be_v a_o secret_a objection_n answer_v for_o it_o may_v be_v object_v there_o be_v many_o excellent_a thing_n in_o man_n as_o your_o moral_a philosopher_n have_v they_o not_o much_o light_n in_o their_o understanding_n much_o rectitude_n in_o their_o life_n do_v they_o not_o practise_v many_o moral_a virtue_n that_o be_v all_o one_o it_o will_v but_o increase_v their_o condemnation_n it_o be_v god_n work_n to_o put_v so_o much_o light_n so_o many_o excellent_a thing_n in_o they_o which_o have_v they_o use_v as_o they_o shall_v and_o might_n those_o principle_n will_v have_v shed_v themselves_o into_o their_o whole_a soul_n and_o conversation_n but_o they_o imprison_v they_o shut_v they_o up_o within_o the_o wall_n of_o their_o conscience_n man_n do_v not_o use_v the_o light_n they_o have_v nor_o improve_v it_o they_o do_v not_o bring_v it_o out_o in_o their_o life_n and_o conversation_n but_o withhold_a it_o in_o unrighteousness_n so_o that_o in_o the_o word_n there_o be_v three_o point_n lay_v down_o all_o which_o will_v help_v exceed_o to_o humble_v we_o first_o that_o man_n nature_n be_v full_a of_o all_o impiety_n and_o unrighteousness_n the_o second_o be_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n will_v sure_o fall_v on_o man_n for_o this_o if_o sin_n go_v alone_o it_o will_v not_o so_o much_o amaze_v man_n but_o when_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n come_v too_o accompany_v with_o the_o fruit_n of_o his_o wrath_n man_n out_o of_o self-love_n will_v be_v move_v therewith_o the_o three_o that_o all_o the_o good_a in_o a_o man_n before_o his_o regeneration_n serve_v only_o to_o help_v forward_o his_o condemnation_n but_o before_o i_o come_v to_o the_o handle_n of_o these_o point_n one_o point_n we_o must_v needs_o observe_v out_o of_o the_o method_n of_o the_o apostle_n this_o that_o he_o say_v here_o in_o few_o word_n be_v amplify_v to_o the_o middle_n of_o the_o three_o chapter_n all_o which_o time_n he_o spend_v in_o express_v particular_o how_o man_n nature_n be_v full_a of_o impiety_n and_o unrighteousness_n and_o when_o he_o have_v do_v that_o he_o urge_v justification_n by_o christ_n and_o after_o that_o he_o come_v to_o sanctification_n wherein_o the_o apostle_n method_n be_v very_o observable_a and_o therefore_o from_o his_o method_n before_o we_o come_v to_o the_o main_a we_o will_v brief_o deliver_v this_o point_n doct._n that_o humiliation_n must_v go_v before_o justification_n you_o may_v observe_v it_o from_o the_o method_n use_v man_n must_v first_o be_v convince_v of_o their_o impiety_n and_o unrighteousness_n before_o they_o can_v be_v fit_a to_o receive_v the_o gospel_n as_o the_o physician_n have_v their_o method_n in_o cure_v first_o to_o purge_v and_o cleanse_v the_o body_n and_o then_o to_o give_v cordial_n so_o it_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o divinity_n you_o must_v be_v humble_v before_o you_o can_v be_v justify_v or_o humiliation_n go_v before_o justification_n which_o may_v be_v gather_v not_o only_o from_o this_o but_o likewise_o from_o many_o other_o place_n you_o shall_v find_v it_o be_v the_o course_n god_n take_v every_o where_o with_o man_n and_o it_o be_v a_o very_a necessary_a thing_n to_o be_v know_v for_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o ignorance_n of_o this_o method_n man_n do_v not_o

condition_n he_o be_v in_o so_o when_o the_o law_n come_v it_o humble_v a_o man_n make_v he_o to_o draw_v in_o his_o thought_n and_o to_o see_v his_o misery_n and_o when_o he_o be_v wound_v with_o

they_o will_v not_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n they_o be_v not_o yet_o humble_v and_o therefore_o they_o can_v be_v save_v the_o jubilee_n among_o the_o jew_n may_v be_v a_o very_a fit_a resemblance_n

in_o show_v you_o the_o falseness_n of_o this_o opinion_n first_o i_o will_v ask_v this_o question_n whether_o there_o be_v necessity_n or_o no_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o a_o

and_o therefore_o we_o will_v inquire_v first_o and_o see_v what_o necessity_n there_o be_v first_o i_o say_v there_o be_v no_o such_o necessity_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o such_o transubstantiation_n any_o such_o corporal_a presence_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o sacrament_n neither_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o thing_n nor_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o word_n this_o be_v my_o body_n i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o necessary_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o thing_n look_v to_o all_o the_o end_n of_o the_o sacrament_n you_o shall_v find_v that_o you_o may_v have_v all_o without_o such_o a_o

often_o as_o you_o do_v it_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o certain_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o change_n of_o bread_n into_o his_o body_n for_o that_o purpose_n because_o the_o sacrament_n itself_o with_o those_o word_n institute_v be_v enough_o for_o his_o remembrance_n and_o beside_o this_o the_o very_a word_n remember_v show_v that_o he_o be_v rather_o

remembrance_n where_o there_o be_v no_o such_o transubstantiation_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o for_o remembrance_n that_o it_o be_v needful_a that_o christ_n shall_v be_v corporal_o present_a or_o second_o be_v it_o needful_a for_o this_o the_o show_v forth_o the_o lord_n death_n till_o he_o come_v sure_o for_o this_o it_o be_v not_o needful_a neither_o for_o in_o preach_v we_o show_v

not_o needful_a for_o the_o show_v forth_o of_o the_o lord_n death_n till_o he_o come_v beside_o there_o be_v a_o particle_n put_v in_o there_o that_o may_v help_v we_o a_o little_a till_o he_o come_v which_o presuppose_v that_o he_o be_v not_o yet_o here_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a for_o that_o end_n but_o again_o be_v it_o necessary_a for_o our_o union_n with_o christ_n for_o that_o be_v another_o end_n of_o the_o sacrament_n that_o we_o may_v be_v unite_v to_o he_o sure_o if_o the_o union_n be_v corporal_a then_o indeed_o there_o may_v seem_v some_o necessity_n of_o it_o if_o we_o be_v so_o unite_v to_o christ_n as_o when_o two_o board_n be_v clap_v together_o where_o one_o touch_v another_o but_o you_o know_v there_o be_v no_o such_o corporal_a union_n it_o be_v
