in_o their_o child_n it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o forest_n affliction_n that_o almost_o ever_o any_o saint_n of_o god_n meet_v withal_o in_o his_o child_n this_o affliction_n of_o aaron_n at_o this_o time_n that_o two_o of_o his_o son_n and_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o the_o last_o day_n renown_a man_n in_o israel_n new_o consecrate_v to_o the_o office_n of_o priesthood_n that_o the_o very_o first_o day_n they_o come_v to_o offer_v in_o their_o office_n they_o be_v strike_v before_o all_o the_o people_n with_o fire_n from_o heaven_n and_o be_v consume_v oh_o what_o a_o sad_a affliction_n be_v it_o to_o aaron_n their_o father_n when_o he_o see_v his_o son_n in_o such_o a_o manner_n destroy_v by_o god_n himself_o consider_v of_o this_o you_o that_o have_v child_n and_o be_v ready_a to_o murmur_v and_o complain_v of_o every_o little_a affliction_n that_o be_v upon_o you_o in_o respect_n of_o your_o child_n if_o so_o be_v that_o your_o child_n be_v but_o a_o little_a sick_a or_o there_o be_v any_o miscarriage_n of_o they_o you_o think_v it_o be_v a_o heavy_a hand_n of_o god_n but_o especial_o if_o god_n take_v away_o your_o child_n by_o death_n than_o you_o mourn_v and_o will_v not_o be_v comfort_v yea_o but_o though_o god_n have_v take_v away_o your_o child_n by_o death_n yea_o perhaps_o it_o may_v be_v by_o a_o violent_a death_n as_o be_v drown_v etc._n etc._n yet_o they_o have_v not_o be_v strike_v with_o fire_n from_o heaven_n by_o god_n and_o they_o have_v not_o be_v of_o such_o public_a use_n these_o here_o be_v renown_a man_n and_o take_v away_o in_o their_o very_a sin_n too_o your_o child_n which_o have_v go_v upon_o their_o lawful_a employment_n and_o god_n have_v take_v away_o their_o life_n there_o be_v no_o such_o cause_n of_o murmur_v here_o but_o when_o god_n take_v away_o child_n in_o their_o sin_n and_o in_o such_o a_o way_n as_o by_o fire_n from_o heaven_n thus_o god_n take_v away_o aaron_n child_n and_o he_o be_v as_o dear_a to_o god_n as_o you_o be_v and_o yet_o thus_o god_n deal_v with_o his_o saint_n with_o aaron_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o child_n and_o with_o his_o elder_a child_n and_o with_o two_o of_o they_o together_o this_o example_n may_v be_v enough_o to_o still_o and_o quiet_a the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o be_v afflict_v in_o respect_n of_o any_o calamity_n that_o befall_v their_o child_n you_o see_v what_o a_o hand_n of_o god_n be_v against_o the_o very_a child_n of_o aaron_n a_o further_a note_n be_v this_o that_o god_n judgement_n we_o see_v sometime_o though_o the_o effect_n of_o they_o be_v visible_a yet_o they_o come_v in_o a_o invisible_a way_n for_o you_o shall_v find_v if_o you_o read_v on_o in_o this_o story_n that_o they_o be_v smite_v with_o fire_n from_o heaven_n but_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v what_o fire_n for_o it_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o consume_v their_o clothes_n not_o their_o body_n but_o go_v through_o all_o and_o strike_v they_o dead_a and_o no_o body_n can_v tell_v how_o god_n judgement_n do_v come_v in_o a_o way_n that_o be_v invisible_a if_o it_o have_v be_v in_o a_o visible_a flame_n of_o fire_n all_o will_v have_v see_v it_o and_o it_o will_v have_v burn_v their_o clothes_n or_o their_o body_n but_o you_o shall_v find_v in_o the_o 5._o verse_n that_o they_o be_v carry_v away_o from_o the_o sanctuary_n in_o their_o clothes_n they_o be_v not_o burn_v another_o note_n be_v this_o that_o though_o the_o life_n of_o man_n be_v dear_a and_o precious_a to_o god_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o so_o precious_a as_o his_o glory_n the_o glory_n of_o his_o name_n be_v a_o thousand_o thousand_o time_n more_o dear_a unto_o god_n than_o the_o life_n of_o thousand_o thousand_o of_o people_n the_o life_n of_o nadab_n and_o abihu_n must_v go_v that_o god_n may_v be_v sanctify_v if_o it_o come_v so_o in_o the_o way_n as_o i_o may_v so_o say_v the_o life_n of_o man_n and_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_n the_o glory_n of_o god_n must_v pass_v on_o and_o must_v have_v its_o course_n let_v the_o life_n of_o man_n go_v which_o way_n they_o will_n we_o think_v much_o to_o have_v the_o life_n of_o man_n take_v away_o but_o if_o we_o know_v what_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n mean_v and_o what_o infinite_a reason_n there_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v be_v glorify_v we_o will_v not_o think_v it_o much_o that_o the_o life_n of_o never_o so_o many_o man_n shall_v go_v for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n it_o be_v mercy_n that_o our_o life_n have_v not_o go_v many_o time_n for_o god_n glory_n how_o often_o may_v god_n have_v glorify_v himself_o in_o take_v away_o our_o life_n we_o have_v cause_n to_o bless_v he_o that_o our_o life_n have_v be_v preserve_v so_o long_o as_o they_o have_v again_o note_v that_o the_o near_a any_o man_n be_v unto_o god_n the_o more_o they_o have_v need_n take_v heed_n that_o they_o glorify_v he_o for_o they_o must_v expect_v to_o be_v spare_v the_o less_o if_o they_o sin_n against_o he_o nadab_n and_o abihu_n the_o priest_n of_o god_n and_o they_o come_v near_o to_o god_n yet_o by_o their_o transgression_n though_o i_o tell_v you_o we_o do_v not_o find_v in_o any_o place_n of_o scripture_n direct_o in_o word_n that_o this_o fire_n be_v forbid_v but_o they_o shall_v have_v gather_v god_n mind_n by_o consequence_n and_o therefore_o by_o the_o way_n i_o only_o note_v that_o we_o must_v not_o think_v to_o urge_v upon_o man_n in_o all_o thing_n strict_a command_n in_o very_a word_n but_o if_o it_o be_v command_v so_o as_o we_o may_v draw_v it_o by_o any_o consequence_n it_o be_v a_o command_n as_o now_o here_o for_o the_o negative_a they_o have_v not_o a_o negative_a prohibition_n in_o word_n yet_o they_o have_v it_o by_o consequence_n so_o for_o the_o affirmative_a though_o we_o have_v not_o the_o affirmative_a in_o express_a word_n yet_o if_o we_o may_v have_v it_o by_o consequence_n it_o be_v a_o affirmative_a as_o well_o as_o the_o negative_a when_o we_o have_v it_o by_o consequence_n but_o now_o the_o note_n of_o observation_n be_v that_o the_o near_a any_o come_v to_o god_n if_o they_o sin_n against_o he_o they_o must_v not_o expect_v to_o be_v spare_v do_v not_o think_v that_o god_n will_v spare_v you_o the_o more_o because_o you_o be_v professor_n of_o religion_n or_o because_o you_o do_v often_o worship_v he_o i_o suppose_v you_o that_o be_v acquaint_v with_o scripture_n know_v that_o place_n in_o amos_n 3._o 2._o you_o only_o have_v i_o know_v of_o all_o the_o family_n of_o the_o earth_n therefore_o i_o will_v punish_v you_o for_o all_o your_o iniquity_n another_o note_n be_v this_o that_o when_o a_o judgement_n be_v exemplary_a than_o we_o shall_v have_v recourse_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o see_v how_o god_n do_v make_v his_o word_n good_a in_o that_o judgement_n so_o moses_n do_v this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v do_v you_o see_v any_o remarkable_a hand_n of_o god_n in_o the_o execution_n of_o a_o judgement_n upon_o one_o have_v recourse_n to_o god_n word_n and_o present_o begin_v to_o think_v this_o what_o be_v there_o in_o god_n word_n against_o that_o sin_n that_o this_o man_n have_v be_v guilty_a of_o if_o you_o see_v a_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o a_o drunkard_n remember_v the_o threat_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n against_o drunkenness_n and_o so_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o unclean_a person_n swearer_n sabbath-breaker_n liar_n or_o any_o profane_a and_o ungodly_a person_n have_v recourse_n to_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n threaten_v in_o the_o word_n against_o such_o and_o so_o likewise_o concern_v scorner_n and_o opposer_n of_o religion_n remember_v what_o be_v say_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n against_o such_o and_o so_o learn_v to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n we_o may_v have_v mention_v some_o particular_a threat_n of_o god_n against_o particular_a sinner_n for_o the_o help_a of_o you_o that_o when_o you_o see_v exemplary_a judgement_n to_o have_v recourse_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o we_o let_v that_o pass_v a_o further_a note_n from_o this_o story_n be_v this_o that_o the_o great_a honour_n that_o god_n intend_v to_o his_o name_n it_o be_v the_o make_n of_o his_o name_n holy_a i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o they_o that_o draw_v nigh_o i_o and_o before_o all_o the_o people_n i_o will_v be_v glorify_v as_o moses_n shall_v say_v in_o god_n name_n i_o must_v and_o will_v have_v glory_n from_o the_o people_n and_o how_o by_o make_v my_o name_n appear_v to_o be_v holy_a this_o be_v the_o glory_n that_o i_o stand_v upon_o above_o all_o other_o thing_n that_o my_o name_n may_v appear_v to_o be_v holy_a that_o i_o may_v appear_v to_o be_v
therefore_o it_o be_v not_o a_o ordinary_a fire_n it_o be_v some_o celestial_a fire_n strike_v into_o they_o to_o slay_v they_o for_o so_o say_v the_o text_n in_o the_o 4._o ver_fw-la come_v near_o carry_v away_o your_o brethren_n from_o before_o the_o sanctuary_n out_o of_o the_o camp_n and_o so_o they_o go_v and_o carry_v they_o in_o their_o crat_n out_o of_o the_o camp_n so_o that_o their_o clothes_n and_o body_n be_v not_o consume_v only_o they_o be_v kill_v by_o the_o fire_n they_o be_v strike_v with_o a_o sudden_a death_n and_o that_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o lord_n such_o a_o death_n as_o god_n have_v never_o threaten_v in_o the_o word_n before_o god_n have_v never_o threaten_v the_o priest_n and_o say_v if_o you_o offer_v strange_a fire_n you_o shall_v be_v consume_v by_o fire_n but_o yet_o god_n smite_v they_o with_o death_n by_o fire_n they_o have_v not_o time_n to_o seek_v god_n no_o not_o so_o much_o as_o we_o use_v to_o say_v as_o to_o say_v lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o i_o they_o have_v no_o time_n to_o promise_v amendment_n at_o all_o now_o upon_o this_o heavy_a judgement_n the_o heart_n of_o aaron_n can_v not_o possible_o but_o be_v very_o much_o trouble_v yea_o and_o the_o spirit_n of_o moses_n too_o for_o moses_n be_v their_o uncle_n and_o aaron_n their_o father_n they_o can_v not_o but_o be_v exceed_o much_a grieve_v but_o moses_n be_v the_o brother_n of_o aaron_n see_v his_o spirit_n no_o question_n exceed_o trouble_v be_v under_o such_o a_o sad_a affliction_n and_o that_o such_o a_o godly_a man_n even_o as_o aaron_n be_v shall_v have_v such_o a_o sad_a judgement_n befall_v his_o child_n moses_n come_v and_o speak_v comfortable_o to_o he_o and_o labour_n to_o support_v his_o spirit_n and_o how_o do_v he_o do_v it_o he_o come_v not_o as_o ordinary_o you_o use_v to_o visit_v your_o brethren_n oh_o you_o must_v be_v content_a with_o this_o no_o but_o he_o come_v and_o apply_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o show_v how_o god_n must_v be_v sanctify_v and_o by_o that_o he_o come_v to_o quiet_a the_o heart_n of_o his_o brother_n aaron_n this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o lord_n have_v speak_v say_v moses_n he_o seek_v to_o stay_v the_o heart_n of_o his_o brother_n with_o that_o which_o god_n speak_v but_o where_o do_v we_o find_v that_o god_n speak_v this_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o find_v in_o any_o scripture_n these_o very_a word_n in_o terminis_fw-la before_o this_o time_n and_o therefore_o augustin_n think_v it_o be_v only_o the_o word_n god_n speak_v but_o not_o write_v and_o so_o they_o have_v it_o from_o hand_n to_o hand_n by_o tradition_n as_o many_o other_o thing_n as_o the_o prophecy_n of_o enoch_n that_o the_o apostle_n judas_n speak_v of_o you_o do_v not_o find_v it_o write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o it_o so_o that_o indeed_o it_o be_v from_o hand_n to_o hand_n yea_o and_o we_o find_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n when_o paul_n speak_v of_o a_o thing_n that_o christ_n shall_v say_v how_o that_o our_o lord_n say_v it_o be_v a_o more_o bless_a thing_n to_o give_v than_o to_o receive_v you_o find_v it_o not_o record_v in_o the_o gospel_n that_o christ_n say_v so_o so_o this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o lord_n say_v though_o it_o be_v not_o write_v from_o the_o begin_n of_o genesis_n to_o this_o very_a place_n or_o otherwise_o though_o it_o be_v not_o record_v in_o express_a term_n yet_o something_o be_v record_v to_o the_o same_o purpose_n and_o effect_v and_o so_o it_o may_v seem_v to_o have_v reference_n to_o that_o scripture_n exod._n 29._o 43._o there_o we_o have_v a_o scripture_n come_v as_o near_o to_o it_o as_o any_o i_o know_v and_o there_o will_v i_o meet_v with_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n and_o the_o tabernacle_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v by_o my_o glory_n that_o be_v as_o much_o in_o effect_n as_o i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o those_o that_o come_v nigh_o i_o in_o those_o that_o come_v to_o worship_v i_o in_o my_o tabernacle_n i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o all_o thing_n that_o concern_v my_o worship_n i_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o be_v sanctify_v there_o i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v i_o will_v be_v hallow_v for_o it_o be_v the_o very_a same_o that_o you_o have_v in_o the_o lord_n prayer_n hallow_a be_v thy_o name_n only_o that_o be_v the_o greek_a word_n and_o this_o be_v the_o hebrew_n but_o if_o you_o will_v translate_v this_o word_n into_o greek_a you_o must_v translate_v it_o by_o the_o same_o word_n that_o christ_n speak_v when_o he_o teach_v his_o disciple_n to_o pray_v hallow_a be_v thy_o name_n hallow_v and_o sanctify_a be_v all_o one_o lord_n let_v thy_o name_n appear_v to_o be_v holy_a so_o i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v that_o be_v i_o will_v have_v my_o name_n appear_v to_o be_v holy_a i_o will_v be_v make_v know_v unto_o my_o people_n and_o to_o all_o the_o world_n that_o i_o be_o a_o holy_a god_n that_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v i_o will_v be_v know_v to_o all_o the_o world_n that_o i_o be_o a_o holy_a god_n and_o before_o all_o the_o people_n i_o will_v be_v glorify_v so_o it_o be_v in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o verse_n as_o if_o god_n shall_v say_v i_o account_v it_o to_o be_v my_o glory_n that_o i_o shall_v be_v manifest_v to_o be_v holy_a before_o all_o the_o world_n i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v that_o be_v i_o will_v have_v my_o people_n to_o demean_v and_o carry_v themselves_o so_o as_o to_o hold_v forth_o their_o acknowledgement_n of_o my_o holiness_n so_o as_o by_o their_o carriage_n i_o may_v appear_v to_o be_v a_o holy_a god_n i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v by_o they_o or_o otherwise_o if_o they_o shall_v not_o in_o a_o active_a way_n sanctify_v my_o name_n that_o be_v if_o they_o shall_v not_o demean_v themselves_o so_o as_o to_o hold_v forth_o the_o glory_n of_o my_o holiness_n than_o i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v upon_o they_o i_o will_v demean_v and_o carry_v myself_o towards_o they_o so_o as_o by_o my_o action_n upon_o they_o i_o will_v make_v it_o appear_v what_o a_o holy_a god_n i_o be_o so_o god_n be_v sanctify_v two_o way_n either_o by_o the_o holiness_n of_o his_o people_n in_o their_o carriage_n towards_o he_o

forth_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n holiness_n than_o god_n be_v sanctify_v but_o then_o if_o we_o do_v not_o do_v so_o then_o god_n sanctify_v himself_o that_o be_v in_o way_n of_o judgement_n upon_o

yet_o be_v bitter_a &_o severe_a towards_o stranger_n yet_o i_o will_v not_o be_v so_o say_v god_n let_v those_o that_o be_v near_o i_o look_v to_o it_o i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v by_o they_o i_o

sanctify_v in_o those_o that_o draw_v nigh_o i_o and_o let_v all_o those_o motion_n of_o thy_o heart_n be_v stop_v and_o quiet_a thus_o now_o you_o see_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o the_o scope_n of_o it_o now_o in_o this_o scripture_n you_o have_v these_o three_o special_a and_o notable_a point_n 1_o that_o in_o worship_v of_o god_n there_o be_v a_o draw_v nigh_o unto_o he_o 2_o that_o when_o we_o do_v draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n we_o shall_v take_v heed_n to_o ourselves_o that_o we_o sanctify_v god_n name_n 3_o if_o we_o do_v not_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o our_o drawing_n nigh_o to_o he_o then_o certain_o god_n will_v sanctify_v his_o own_o name_n upon_o we_o these_o be_v the_o three_o point_n that_o i_o intend_v to_o handle_v and_o especial_o the_o second_o to_o handle_v large_o among_o you_o i_o confess_v upon_o another_o occasion_n in_o one_o sermon_n i_o have_v speak_v out_o of_o these_o word_n but_o now_o i_o intend_v not_o only_o in_o general_n to_o show_v you_o how_o you_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o worship_n but_o likewise_o in_o the_o particular_a act_n of_o worship_n as_o sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o prayer_n in_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n in_o hear_v the_o word_n in_o the_o several_a chief_a part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n how_o his_o name_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v for_o in_o all_o these_o you_o do_v draw_v night_n to_o god_n and_o for_o that_o end_n i_o have_v pitch_v my_o thought_n upon_o this_o scripture_n but_o before_o i_o come_v to_o these_o three_o great_a point_n that_o be_v the_o principal_a point_n in_o the_o word_n read_v unto_o you_o i_o shall_v take_v up_o divers_a other_o note_n of_o observation_n that_o lie_v up_o and_o down_o as_o it_o be_v scatter_v that_o be_v of_o great_a use_n and_o will_v help_v we_o further_a to_o make_v use_n of_o this_o scripture_n in_o the_o other_o point_n that_o i_o shall_v come_v to_o afterward_o and_o handle_v more_o large_o the_o first_o note_n be_v this_o that_o in_o god_n worship_n there_o must_v be_v nothing_o tender_v up_o to_o god_n but_o what_o he_o have_v command_v whatsoever_o we_o meddle_v with_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n it_o must_v be_v what_o we_o have_v a_o warrant_n for_o out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o this_o speech_n of_o moses_n be_v upon_o occasion_n of_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o aaron_n son_n for_o offer_v strange_a fire_n they_o offer_v fire_n that_o god_n have_v not_o command_v hence_o i_o say_v that_o all_o thing_n in_o god_n worship_n must_v have_v a_o warrant_v out_o of_o god_n word_n must_v be_v command_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o it_o be_v not_o forbid_v i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v it_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o a_o thing_n be_v not_o forbid_v and_o what_o hurt_n be_v there_o in_o it_o but_o it_o must_v be_v command_v i_o confess_v in_o matter_n that_o be_v civil_a and_o natural_a there_o this_o may_v be_v enough_o if_o it_o be_v but_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o prudence_n and_o not_o forbid_v in_o the_o word_n we_o may_v make_v use_n of_o this_o in_o civil_a and_o natural_a thing_n but_o now_o when_o we_o come_v to_o matter_n of_o religion_n and_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n we_o must_v either_o
maker_n so_o in_o psal_n 100_o 2._o let_v we_o come_v before_o his_o presence_n with_o sing_v for_o that_o be_v one_o part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n but_o the_o scripture_n be_v plain_a that_o there_o be_v a_o special_a come_n before_o god_n when_o we_o be_v come_v to_o worship_n he_o and_o in_o this_o respect_n the_o servant_n of_o god_n in_o psal_n 148._o 14._o be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o people_n near_o to_o god_n it_o be_v a_o very_a remarkable_a expression_n and_o set_v forth_o much_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n there_o be_v the_o commendation_n of_o the_o excellent_a estate_n of_o the_o saint_n he_o also_o exalt_v the_o horn_n of_o his_o people_n the_o praise_n of_o all_o his_o saint_n even_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n a_o people_n near_o unto_o he_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n the_o child_n of_o israel_n the_o church_n of_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o people_n near_o to_o god_n why_o near_o he_o because_o that_o they_o worship_n god_n they_o be_v much_o exercise_v in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n this_o be_v one_o respect_n though_o there_o may_v be_v divers_a other_o mention_v yet_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o come_n so_o much_o before_o god_n in_o his_o worship_n therefore_o they_o be_v near_o god_n quest_n near_o he_o why_o in_o what_o respect_n may_v a_o man_n be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n when_o he_o worship_n he_o answ_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v there_o be_v three_o respect_n in_o which_o a_o man_n when_o he_o be_v worship_v god_n may_v be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n first_o because_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n and_o service_n unto_o he_o that_o be_v due_a from_o we_o as_o creature_n to_o the_o infinite_a creator_n that_o be_v the_o very_a end_n of_o worship_n if_o you_o will_v know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n it_o be_v this_o you_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n and_o respect_n that_o be_v due_a from_o the_o creature_n to_o the_o creator_n now_o when_o a_o subject_a come_v to_o tender_v up_o his_o homage_n to_o his_o prince_n he_o come_v towards_o he_o when_o he_o do_v it_o immediate_o so_o we_o have_v none_o to_o tender_v it_o up_o by_o but_o jesus_n christ_n and_o when_o we_o tender_v it_o up_o we_o must_v come_v ourselves_o too_o for_o christ_n do_v nor_o take_v our_o service_n and_o tender_v it_o up_o to_o god_n and_o we_o be_v absent_a but_o we_o must_v come_v with_o christ_n and_o christ_n take_v we_o by_o the_o hand_n and_o so_o tender_v it_o up_o to_o the_o father_n while_o we_o be_v in_o presence_n so_o that_o we_o be_v say_v to_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o that_o respect_n because_o of_o the_o immediate_a tender_v up_o of_o that_o worship_n of_o we_o to_o god_n i_o call_v it_o immediate_a in_o respect_n of_o any_o creature_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o christ_n indeed_o he_o be_v a_o mediator_n to_o do_v it_o but_o yet_o he_o do_v it_o in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n and_o we_o have_v to_o do_v with_o none_o but_o god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o tender_v up_o of_o our_o worship_n to_o he_o we_o may_v make_v use_n of_o a_o institution_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v but_o we_o do_v not_o tender_v up_o our_o worship_n to_o god_n through_o that_o creature_n but_o in_o the_o use_n of_o that_o creature_n we_o do_v come_v to_o god_n and_o our_o soul_n be_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o respect_n we_o owe_v to_o god_n immediate_o therefore_o in_o levit_fw-la 21._o 21._o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o priest_n in_o their_o sacrifice_n when_o they_o be_v to_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n no_o man_n that_o have_v a_o blemish_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o aaron_n the_o priest_n shall_v come_v nigh_o to_o offer_v the_o offering_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v by_o fire_n so_o that_o when_o any_o come_v to_o offer_v any_o offering_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v by_o fire_n it_o appear_v he_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n he_o come_v to_o bring_v a_o present_a to_o god_n therefore_o he_o come_v nigh_o so_o when_o we_o come_v to_o offer_v our_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n unto_o god_n we_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n to_o offer_v it_o be_v the_o offering_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n and_o that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n because_o the_o creature_n come_v to_o bring_v a_o present_a to_o god_n therefore_o he_o be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o and_o second_o the_o soul_n be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n because_o it_o do_v present_v its_o self_n before_o god_n in_o those_o way_n through_o which_o god_n do_v use_v to_o communicate_v his_o choice_n precious_a most_o excellent_a and_o glorious_a mercy_n to_o his_o people_n i_o say_v when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o set_v ourselves_o before_o god_n in_o those_o way_n that_o god_n do_v use_v to_o communicate_v the_o choice_n most_o excellent_a and_o glorious_a rich_a mercy_n that_o he_o have_v to_o communicate_v to_o his_o creature_n when_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o creature_n as_o meat_n and_o drink_n and_o our_o outward_a business_n we_o have_v to_o do_v with_o god_n in_o they_o but_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o present_v ourselves_o before_o he_o in_o those_o thing_n that_o he_o do_v use_v to_o let_v out_o himself_o through_o in_o a_o more_o special_a and_o glorious_a manner_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o his_o people_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o heaven_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o why_o those_o that_o be_v in_o heaven_n be_v say_v to_o live_v with_o god_n there_o they_o behold_v the_o face_n of_o god_n and_o be_v before_o he_o in_o a_o special_a manner_n therefore_o when_o christ_n teach_v we_o to_o pray_v he_o teach_v we_o to_o look_v up_o to_o heaven_n and_o to_o say_v our_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n etc._n etc._n now_o certain_o the_o essential_a presence_n of_o god_n be_v on_o earth_n as_o true_o and_o real_o as_o in_o heaven_n and_o god_n be_v not_o so_o as_o to_o have_v one_o part_n in_o one_o place_n and_o another_o in_o another_o but_o all_o god_n be_v in_o every_o place_n but_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o heaven_n it_o be_v because_o the_o lord_n make_v know_v himself_o there_o in_o a_o more_o glorious_a manner_n than_o in_o any_o other_o place_n and_o therefore_o heaven_n be_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n in_o a_o more_o special_a way_n now_o than_o if_o the_o communication_n of_o god_n unto_o a_o creature_n be_v enough_o to_o make_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n more_o special_a if_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v a_o creature_n to_o live_v with_o god_n and_o to_o be_v before_o his_o face_n because_o they_o be_v there_o where_o god_n do_v most_o communicate_v himself_o then_o certain_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o be_v near_o god_n and_o be_v with_o god_n because_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n be_v those_o mean_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v for_o the_o let_v out_o of_o himself_o in_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n to_o his_o people_n you_o may_v expect_v other_o manner_n of_o communication_n of_o god_n goodness_n through_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n than_o in_o any_o other_o way_n and_o that_o be_v the_o second_o respect_n wherein_o you_o may_v be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n three_o you_o may_v be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n because_o than_o we_o shall_v and_o if_o we_o worship_v god_n as_o we_o ought_v we_o do_v act_v our_o faith_n and_o humility_n and_o all_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n we_o do_v act_v they_o as_o it_o be_v upon_o god_n when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_v he_o that_o be_v require_v in_o every_o duty_n of_o worship_n that_o you_o shall_v stir_v up_o the_o faculty_n of_o your_o soul_n and_o all_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o you_o shall_v act_v they_o upon_o god_n when_o you_o be_v worship_v of_o he_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o come_v with_o grace_n when_o you_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n but_o there_o must_v be_v a_o act_n of_o that_o grace_n upon_o god_n and_o so_o we_o find_v in_o scripture_n that_o the_o act_n of_o

when_o thou_o fall_v to_o the_o duty_n thou_o call_v in_o the_o help_n of_o god_n and_o of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n better_o while_o thou_o be_v muse_v plod_a and_o

more_o able_a to_o the_o performance_n of_o the_o duty_n than_o thou_o be_v before_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o best_a way_n to_o fall_v upon_o a_o duty_n though_o thou_o can_v not_o find_v

now_o than_o we_o be_v to_o proceed_v further_o in_o the_o open_n of_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_n in_o holy_a duty_n thus_o much_o for_o the_o preparation_n of_o the_o heart_n but_o when_o the_o heart_n come_v to_o it_o in_o what_o manner_n shall_v the_o duty_n be_v perform_v so_o as_o the_o name_n of_o god_n may_v be_v sanctify_v in_o the_o duty_n or_o what_o be_v the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_n when_o it_o be_v in_o the_o very_a act_n of_o the_o duty_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v first_o in_o general_a thus_o when_o the_o soul_n labour_v to_o perform_v duty_n so_o as_o god_n may_v have_v such_o glory_n from_o the_o duty_n a●_n be_v fit_a for_o a_o god_n to_o have_v in_o some_o measure_n then_o do_v i_o sanctify_v god_n name_n you_o will_v say_v this_o be_v a_o very_a hard_a thing_n to_o perform_v a_o duty_n so_o as_o that_o we_o shall_v give_v god_n the_o glory_n that_o be_v fit_a for_o a_o god_n to_o have_v certain_o this_o be_v not_o do_v by_o every_o manner_n of_o performance_n of_o a_o duty_n of_o worship_n yet_o you_o shall_v hear_v this_o open_v to_o you_o and_o i_o hope_v you_o shall_v have_v it_o make_v very_o plain_a before_o you_o first_o therefore_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o that_o when_o we_o be_v to_o perform_v a_o duty_n of_o worship_n we_o shall_v set_v ourselves_o to_o glorify_v god_n as_o a_o god_n that_o be_v to_o do_v it_o in_o that_o manner_n that_o god_n may_v have_v that_o glory_n that_o be_v fit_a for_o a_o god_n to_o have_v as_o now_o in_o the_o duty_n of_o praise_n psal_n 66._o 2._o make_v his_o praise_n glorious_a that_o be_v do_v it_o so_o as_o you_o may_v lift_v up_o his_o name_n in_o it_o and_o that_o god_n may_v be_v glorious_a in_o your_o praise_n and_o rom._n 1._o 21._o there_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o heathen_n he_o do_v rebuke_v they_o for_o what_o it_o be_v for_o this_o because_o that_o when_o they_o know_v god_n they_o glorify_v he_o not_o as_o god_n neither_o be_v thankful_a now_o this_o be_v speak_v especial_o of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n for_o he_o say_v afterward_o ver_fw-la 23._o that_o they_o change_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o incorruptible_a god_n into_o a_o image_n make_v like_a to_o corruptible_a man_n etc._n etc._n so_o that_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n that_o they_o glorify_v not_o god_n as_o god_n that_o be_v then_o to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n to_o glorify_v god_n as_o god_n and_o therefore_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o 4._o of_o john_n when_o he_o speak_v to_o the_o woman_n of_o samaria_n he_o tell_v she_o that_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o must_v be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n that_o be_v we_o must_v labour_v to_o suit_v our_o worship_n to_o what_o ther●_n be_v in_o god_n that_o our_o worship_n my_o be_v proportionable_a in_o some_o measure_n even_o to_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n himself_o and_o therefore_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n his_o worship_n must_v be_v a_o divine_a worship_n i_o have_v read_v of_o some_o of_o the_o heathen_n that_o dip_v worship_v the_o sun_n for_o a_o god_n and_o they_o will_v offer_v to_o the_o sun_n something_o suitable_a therefore_o because_o they_o do_v so_o admire_v at_o the_o swiftness_n of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o sun_n they_o will_v not_o offer_v a_o snail_n to_o the_o sun_n but_o a_o f●ying_a horse_n a_o horse_n with_o wing_n now_o a_o horse_n be_v one_o of_o the_o swift_a creature_n and_o the_o strong_a creature_n to_o continue_v in_o motion_n for_o a_o long_a time_n together_o and_o they_o add_v wing_n to_o the_o horse_n and_o they_o think_v that_o suitable_a to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o sun_n so_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n that_o be_v to_o sanctify_v his_o name_n we_o must_v behave_v ourselves_o so_o as_o to_o give_v he_o the_o glory_n that_o be_v fit_a for_o a_o god_n to_o have_v as_o now_o in_o those_o three_o particular_n which_o i_o open_v to_o you_o when_o i_o show_v you_o wherein_o we_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n this_o be_v one_o i_o tell_v you_o that_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o some_o present_n to_o god_n now_o than_o we_o must_v tender_v up_o such_o a_o present_a as_o be_v suitable_a to_o god_n excellency_n if_o a_o man_n shall_v come_v to_o a_o poor_a man_n to_o give_v a_o present_a if_o it_o be_v not_o worthy_a twelve_o penny_n yet_o it_o may_v be_v take_v well_o but_o if_o you_o be_v to_o tender_v up_o a_o present_a to_o a_o prince_n a_o monarch_n a_o emperor_n than_o you_o must_v tender_v a_o present_a that_o be_v fit_a for_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o preson_z therefore_o in_o malachi_n 1._o 8._o when_o the_o lord_n rebuke_n they_o for_o their_o sacrifice_n that_o they_o be_v such_o poor_a thing_n go_v say_v god_n and_o tender_v up_o this_o to_o your_o governor_n and_o see_v whether_o he_o will_v accept_v of_o it_o or_o no._n so_o certain_o that_o which_o may_v be_v accept_v of_o by_o a_o mean_a man_n will_v be_v account_v a_o scorn_n if_o you_o shall_v tender_v it_o up_o to_o a_o prince_n or_o a_o emperor_n now_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o must_v consider_v that_o we_o be_v to_o tender_v up_o our_o service_n to_o god_n who_o be_v the_o great_a king_n of_o king_n and_o lord_n of_o lord_n but_o you_o will_v say_v be_v it_o possible_a for_o any_o creature_n which_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o its_o worship_n to_o god_n to_o tender_v up_o that_o which_o be_v fit_a for_o a_o god_n to_o have_v this_o may_v rather_o be_v a_o discouragement_n unto_o prayer_n or_o any_o other_o duty_n of_o worship_n than_o a_o encouragement_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v thus_o though_o we_o be_v very_o poor_a and_o mean_a yet_o it_o do_v not_o hinder_v but_o we_o may_v tender_v up_o that_o to_o god_n which_o god_n will_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v suitable_a to_o his_o infinite_a excellency_n as_o first_o if_o we_o tender_v up_o to_o god_n all_o that_o we_o have_v though_o we_o be_v never_o so_o poor_a and_o mean_a yet_o if_o god_n have_v the_o strength_n of_o our_o soul_n god_n accept_v it_o for_o we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o god_n do_v not_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o what_o we_o have_v or_o of_o what_o we_o do_v but_o that_o we_o may_v show_v our_o respect_n to_o he_o therefore_o if_o we_o give_v all_o that_o we_o have_v god_n accept_v it_o as_o a_o child_n if_o it_o put_v forth_o all_o its_o strength_n that_o it_o have_v to_o do_v a_o business_n which_o the_o father_n bid_v he_o whether_o the_o business_n be_v dove_n or_o no_o the_o father_n look_v upon_o it_o and_o accept_v it_o as_o suitable_a to_o the_o child_n strength_n and_o it_o show_v the_o respect_n that_o the_o child_n have_v to_o his_o father_n and_o as_o it_o be_v story_v of_o a_o emperor_n that_o when_o a_o poor_a man_n have_v nothing_o to_o offer_v he_o but_o a_o little_a water_n that_o he_o have_v take_v up_o with_o his_o hand_n he_o have_v nothing_o else_o the_o emperor_n accept_v of_o it_o so_o that_o be_v that_o which_o god_n look_v for_o that_o the_o creature_n shall_v lift_v he_o above_o all_o if_o therefore_o when_o thou_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n god_n have_v more_o in_o thy_o heart_n than_o
