eat_v of_o the_o crumb_n which_o fall_v from_o their_o master_n table_n the_o lord_n have_v in_o a_o manner_n call_v her_o dog_n and_o say_v it_o be_v not_o for_o dog_n to_o have_v child_n bread_n she_o do_v not_o deny_v it_o but_o she_o grapple_v with_o grace_n and_o say_v truth_n lord_n yet_o dog_n may_v have_v a_o crumb_n etc._n etc._n i_o shall_v put_v all_o that_o be_v speak_v here_o of_o her_o carriage_n into_o one_o lesson_n but_o before_o i_o do_v that_o i_o shall_v name_v two_o other_o observable_a point_n the_o first_o be_v this_o a_o right_a faith_n come_v and_z carrying_z of_o the_o soul_n to_o christ_n be_v a_o resolute_a faith_n that_o be_v one_o point_n i_o will_v name_v pray_v mark_v it_o the_o lord_n jesus_n seem_v to_o put_v she_o off_o he_o give_v she_o nothing_o that_o be_v a_o visible_a encouragement_n yet_o she_o will_v go_v on_o and_o yet_o she_o will_v not_o be_v put_v off_o when_o the_o soul_n come_v to_o christ_n he_o come_v as_o one_o that_o need_v a_o christ_n and_o want_v a_o christ_n will_v have_v and_o as_o one_o that_o must_v have_v a_o christ_n and_o what_o then_o he_o will_v have_v a_o christ_n before_o he_o go_v away_o though_o he_o have_v not_o evidence_n he_o will_v have_v adherence_n though_o the_o soul_n can_v see_v nothing_o and_o though_o no_o hope_n yet_o he_o will_v be_v resolute_a although_o christ_n will_v not_o smile_v though_o conscience_n be_v not_o quiet_a though_o the_o wound_n be_v not_o heal_v though_o the_o lord_n put_v off_o angry_o yet_o the_o soul_n keep_v resolute_a to_o he_o and_o will_v not_o be_v send_v away_o empty_a faith_n if_o right_a be_v still_o resolute_a the_o second_o point_n that_o i_o shall_v name_v be_v this_o that_o a_o right_a faith_n know_v how_o to_o confess_v and_o believe_v at_o once_o a_o true_a believer_n will_v not_o conceal_v his_o sin_n yet_o will_v close_v with_o jesus_n christ_n a_o right_a faith_n will_v deny_v nothing_o and_o yet_o it_o will_v believe_v all_o thing_n my_o brethren_n mark_v it_o a_o little_a there_o be_v a_o company_n of_o vile_a people_n that_o be_v as_o they_o say_v all_o for_o faith_n and_o nothing_o for_o confession_n and_o what_o say_v they_o believer_n it_o be_v not_o for_o they_o to_o come_v and_o confess_v sin_n why_o a_o believer_n will_v confess_v sin_n do_v the_o lord_n say_v dog_n yes_o truth_n lord_n i_o be_o a_o dog_n will_v the_o soul_n say_v as_o this_o woman_n do_v there_o be_v other_o that_o will_v confess_v and_o not_o believe_v oh_o they_o cry_v out_o they_o must_v confess_v and_o bewail_v and_o lie_v low_a and_o humble_v themselves_o etc._n etc._n but_o they_o can_v believe_v they_o dare_v not_o believe_v confession_n be_v their_o work_n etc._n etc._n why_o poor_a heart_n you_o may_v do_v both_o you_o may_v say_v lord_n i_o be_o a_o sinner_n yet_o i_o believe_v for_o mercy_n be_v for_o sinner_n i_o be_o ungodly_a yet_o i_o believe_v for_o abraham_n believe_v in_o he_o who_o justifi_v the_o ungodly_a i_o be_o a_o dog_n as_o thou_o say_v lord_n yet_o i_o believe_v a_o dog_n may_v gather_v up_o a_o crumb_n well_o remember_v it_o true_a faith_n do_v not_o hinder_v confession_n nor_o confession_n shall_v not_o hinder_v faith_n but_o the_o particular_a lesson_n of_o the_o place_n be_v this_o namely_o that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n the_o wisdom_n the_o glory_n of_o poor_a soul_n to_o carry_v it_o holy_o and_o humble_o unto_o christ_n when_o christ_n seem_v to_o carry_v it_o harsh_o unto_o they_o so_o do_v this_o poor_a woman_n or_o if_o you_o will_v take_v it_o short_o thus_o it_o become_v christian_n to_o carry_v it_o real_o well_o when_o christ_n carry_v it_o seem_o ill_n i_o know_v my_o brethren_n this_o be_v a_o hard_a work_n but_o as_o hard_o as_o it_o be_v we_o must_v learn_v it_o and_o i_o will_v assure_v you_o if_o ever_o god_n intend_v to_o do_v you_o good_a though_o flesh_n and_o blood_n murmur_v yet_o the_o lord_n will_v whip_v you_o into_o this_o lesson_n but_o he_o will_v make_v you_o learn_v it_o namely_o to_o carry_v it_o holy_o to_o he_o when_o he_o carry_v it_o seem_o harsh_a to_o you_o i_o remember_v that_o passage_n in_o 1_o pet._n 2.18_o servant_n be_v obedient_a to_o your_o master_n not_o only_o to_o the_o good_a and_o gentle_a but_o also_o to_o the_o froward_a it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o servant_n profess_v the_o name_n of_o god_n though_o he_o have_v a_o froward_a master_n yet_o he_o must_v carry_v it_o well_o now_o mark_v it_o be_v it_o the_o duty_n of_o a_o servant_n to_o carry_v it_o well_o to_o a_o bad_a master_n and_o be_v it_o not_o the_o duty_n of_o saint_n to_o carry_v it_o well_o to_o christ_n we_o be_v the_o servant_n he_o be_v the_o master_n so_o in_o heb._n 12.9_o mark_v the_o apostle_n argumentation_n say_v he_o we_o have_v have_v father_n of_o our_o flesh_n which_o correct_v we_o and_o we_o give_v they_o reverence_n shall_v we_o not_o much_o rather_o be_v in_o subjection_n unto_o the_o father_n of_o spirit_n and_o l●ve_v mark_v there_o be_v life_n in_o this_o our_o life_n depend_v on_o our_o reverend_a carriage_n in_o this_o case_n alas_o if_o christ_n be_v go_v our_o life_n go_v with_o he_o carry_v it_o well_o therefore_o if_o thou_o love_v thy_o life_n you_o must_v be_v subject_a and_o submissive_a even_o when_o he_o seem_v to_o be_v sharp_a otherwise_o death_n be_v at_o the_o door_n mind_v it_o then_o will_v you_o have_v a_o pardon_n and_o do_v christ_n seem_v to_o deny_v you_o where_o can_v you_o go_v for_o it_o but_o to_o he_o and_o when_o you_o come_v if_o you_o submit_v there_o it_o be_v soul_n in_o the_o point_n be_v your_o life_n therefore_o mark_v the_o lesson_n well_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n wisdom_n and_o glory_n of_o saint_n to_o carry_v it_o well_o to_o christ_n when_o he_o carry_v it_o seem_o ill_a to_o they_o there_o be_v four_o person_n in_o the_o book_n of_o god_n record_v that_o god_n do_v seem_v to_o deal_v very_o hardly_o withal_o and_o of_o

be_v you_o be_v ill_a and_o now_o your_o great_a care_n be_v to_o be_v well_o again_o oh_o thou_o ought_v rather_o to_o consider_v thy_o soul-sickness_n thy_o spiritual_a illness_n and_o endeavour_v to_o get_v that_o cure_v in_o christ_n than_o thy_o poor_a carcase_n i_o beseech_v you_o belove_v mind_n as_o you_o use_v to_o say_v the_o main_a and_o know_v that_o it_o be_v the_o soul_n that_o be_v that_o main_a and_o do_v no●_n altogether_o mind_n your_o body_n but_o sometime_o mind_n your_o soul_n oh_o that_o god_n will_v make_v people_n but_o to_o mind_v their_o soul_n more_o i_o can_v wish_v but_o as_o much_o as_o their_o body_n second_o to_o move_v you_o consider_v whatever_o the_o issue_n of_o any_o affliction_n may_v be_v bless_a be_v you_o if_o your_o soul_n be_v bring_v to_o christ_n it_o be_v well_o indeed_o if_o close_v with_o christ_n be_v the_o conclusion_n let_v child_n live_v or_o die_v estate_n go_v or_o come_v so_o thou_o and_o christ_n meet_v together_o all_o be_v well_o

all_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n at_o any_o time_n upon_o you_o or_o you_o but_o before_o i_o conclude_v i_o must_v answer_v this_o case_n of_o conscience_n case_n but_o will_v some_o poor_a soul_n say_v alas_o if_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o jesus_n christ_n upon_o such_o a_o carnal_a account_n shall_v i_o be_v accept_v because_o my_o husband_n wife_n or_o child_n be_v sick_a will_v he_o hear_v i_o be_v this_o a_o fair_a foundation_n or_o a_o good_a first_o motive_n to_o bring_v i_o to_o jesus_n christ_n resol_n i_o answer_v true_o my_o brethren_n if_o thou_o go_v only_a to_o jesus_n christ_n upon_o a_o carnal_a account_n or_o occasion_n i_o can_v say_v christ_n will_v bid_v thou_o welcome_n but_o if_o thy_o carnal_a occasion_n be_v but_o a_o motive_n to_o bring_v thou_o upon_o a_o high_a

our_o cure_n always_o three_o there_o be_v a_o three_o sort_n of_o people_n that_o can_v but_o expect_v christ_n will_v deal_v harsh_o with_o they_o those_o that_o do_v neglect_v many_o a_o sweet_a

of_o spirit_n they_o avoid_v by_o close_v with_o christ_n betimes_o my_o think_v i_o see_v some_o soul_n under_o such_o a_o condition_n you_o have_v stay_v out_o all_o day_n and_o come_v home_o at_o

so_o long_o as_o christ_n will_v receive_v you_o at_o last_o so_o long_o as_o i_o shall_v not_o go_v to_o hell_n so_o long_o as_o i_o shall_v have_v mercy_n at_o last_o than_o i_o will_v go_v on_o

thou_o shall_v have_v christ_n with_o a_o whip_n and_o a_o knock_n second_o it_o be_v a_o thousand_o to_o one_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o the_o soul_n that_o put_v off_o close_v with_o christ_n upon_o this_o presumption_n that_o he_o shall_v have_v it_o at_o last_o and_o will_v presume_v to_o tarry_v because_o he_o persuade_v himself_o of_o a_o sure_a reception_n though_o it_o may_v be_v

whence_o be_v it_o that_o the_o lord_n shall_v thus_o
sometime_o unlike_o himself_o as_o we_o may_v so_o speak_v carry_v himself_o thus_o to_o poor_a soul_n the_o prophecy_n speak_v contrary_a the_o promise_n speak_v fair_a whence_o be_v it_o the_o

with_o the_o woman_n of_o canaan_n first_o christ_n have_v a_o design_n to_o further_a humiliation_n second_o christ_n have_v a_o design_n to_o make_v a_o little_a trial_n upon_o the_o poor_a soul_n three_o christ_n have_v a_o design_n to_o caution_n many_o by_o deal_v harsh_o with_o some_o four_o christ_n have_v a_o design_n full_o to_o bring_v the_o soul_n to_o gospel_n self-denial_n five_o

now_o pray_v mind_n it_o possible_o this_o afternoon_n i_o may_v give_v a_o account_n of_o christ_n deal_n with_o some_o of_o your_o soul_n it_o may_v be_v some_o of_o you_o be_v like_o the_o woman_n of_o canaan_n that_o have_v go_v to_o christ_n and_o find_v hard_a entertainment_n and_o you_o be_v ready_a to_o say_v lord_n why_o do_v thou_o do_v so_o such_o a_o one_o go_v and_o find_v thou_o friendly_a and_o favourable_o while_o i_o come_v and_o cry_v and_o have_v no_o kindness_n nay_o seem_o and_o to_o my_o sense_n much_o harshness_n consider_v now_o what_o i_o shall_v say_v to_o satisfy_v you_o in_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o strange_a carriage_n of_o christ_n and_o first_o it_o may_v be_v christ_n intend_v to_o humble_v thou_o jesus_n christ_n do_v indeed_o humble_a all_o but_o not_o all_o alike_o nor_o all_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n now_o by_o thus_o deal_v with_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o manner_n he_o do_v humble_a the_o soul_n in_o the_o best_a and_o swee_a manner_n viz._n in_o a_o evangelical_n way_n legal_a humiliation_n it_o be_v just_a as_o a_o father_n deal_v with_o a_o very_a untoward_a child_n he_o will_v not_o be_v rule_v and_o the_o father_n send_v he_o to_o the_o magistrate_n that_o he_o may_v go_v to_o bridewell_n but_o gospel-humiliation_n be_v just_a like_o a_o father_n deal_v with_o his_o child_n by_o himself_o the_o father_n look_v strange_a and_o speak_v hard_a and_o thereby_o humble_v the_o child_n so_o christ_n will_v not_o turn_v we_o over_o to_o satan_n to_o buffer_v we_o and_o fear_v we_o and_o as_o it_o be_v break_v we_o but_o himself_o by_o a_o little_a unusual_a strange_a and_o rough_a carriage_n will_v that_o way_n humble_v we_o and_o true_o what_o will_v humble_v we_o if_o that_o will_v not_o there_o be_v but_o three_o head_n unto_o which_o humiliation_n do_v relate_v and_o you_o shall_v see_v this_o same_o harsh_a deal_n of_o christ_n with_o we_o at_o first_o will_v tend_v very_o much_o to_o the_o accomplishment_n of_o they_o all_o first_o humiliation_n relate_v to_o sin_n that_o sin_n may_v be_v exceed_o bitter_a second_o it_o relate_v to_o self_n that_o the_o soul_n may_v be_v exceed_o low_a three_o it_o relate_v to_o christ_n that_o a_o soul_n under_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o bitterness_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o lowness_n of_o self-thought_n may_v think_v of_o christ_n very_o high_o now_o observe_v when_o christ_n shall_v deal_v rough_o with_o a_o sinner_n come_v to_o he_o all_o these_o three_o be_v effect_v oh_o now_o first_o sin_n be_v make_v bitter_a by_o this_o deal_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o law_n make_v sin_n bitter_a but_o the_o gospel_n make_v it_o more_o bitter_a oh_o say_v the_o soul_n my_o iniquity_n make_v christ_n look_v frown_v they_o separate_z between_o god_n and_o i_o a_o torment_a devil_n with_o a_o fiery_a face_n do_v not_o make_v sin_n so_o bitter_a as_o a_o frown_a jesus_n christ_n with_o a_o harsh_a countenance_n when_o christ_n look_v angry_a thus_o say_v the_o soul_n oh_o that_o ever_o my_o sin_n shall_v make_v my_o father_n frown_n that_o be_v all_o love_n i_o have_v once_o thought_n that_o sin_n be_v that_o which_o will_v make_v the_o devil_n roar_v and_o speak_v terrible_o but_o now_o i_o see_v it_o make_v christ_n himself_o harsh_a and_o speak_v rough_o oh_o vile_a sin_n oh_o great_a evil_n now_o thy_o sin_n appear_v oh_o my_o soul_n to_o be_v indeed_o exceed_o sinful_a the_o sole_a and_o principal_a evil_n that_o be_v for_o it_o make_v my_o saviour_n carry_v it_o sad_o towards_o i_o second_o by_o this_o harsh_a deal_n of_o christ_n the_o soul_n be_v humble_v in_o itself_o if_o christ_n frown_v self_n must_v down_o and_o kneel_v it_o may_v be_v the_o soul_n come_v conceit_v he_o be_v not_o so_o bad_a as_o the_o preacher_n will_v make_v he_o but_o when_o the_o soul_n shall_v come_v to_o christ_n for_o mercy_n and_o christ_n shall_v frown_v and_o call_v he_o dog_n now_o say_v the_o soul_n though_o i_o think_v preacher_n and_o father_n and_o mother_n make_v i_o worse_o than_o i_o be_v yet_o now_o i_o see_v i_o be_o very_o bad_a christ_n he_o call_v i_o dog_n and_o he_o say_v it_o be_v not_o fit_a i_o shall_v come_v in_o house_n with_o the_o child_n and_o make_v i_o to_o see_v that_o for_o all_o my_o daintiness_n and_o high_a thought_n i_o be_o no_o 〈◊〉_d than_o a_o dog_n oh_o self_n how_o poor_a and_o mean_v and_o exceed_v vile_a art_n thou_o three_o christ_n be_v mighty_o exalt_v this_o carriage_n make_v thou_o more_o to_o prize_n christ_n poor_a creature_n only_o think_v christ_n a_o common_a person_n one_o that_o may_v be_v easy_o come_v and_o speak_v unto_o yea_o and_o prevail_v with_o but_o now_o when_o christ_n carry_v it_o a_o little_a high_a and_o speak_v something_o harsh_a bid_v we_o as_o it_o be_v keep_v off_o now_o he_o come_v to_o be_v heighten_v in_o our_o heart_n and_o by_o cast_v we_o down_o he_o do_v lift_v up_o himself_o that_o now_o we_o come_v with_o more_o reverence_n and_o fear_n with_o more_o self-abhorring_a and_o christ-admiring_a thought_n than_o possible_o we_o do_v at_o first_o so_o that_o christ_n by_o this_o carriage_n render_v sin_n more_o vile_a and_o self_n more_o base_a and_o himself_o more_o precious_a do_v hereby_o sweet_o and_o sure_o humble_v we_o and_o this_o may_v be_v one_o reason_n of_o this_o strange_a carriage_n to_o we_o second_o the_o lord_n intend_v to_o make_v a_o trial_n upon_o the_o soul_n by_o this_o harsh_a deal_n i_o pray_v mind_n it_o belove_v that_o jesus_n christ_n that_o will_v never_o burn_v the_o soul_n to_o ash_n do_v yet_o intend_v to_o make_v a_o trial_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o fire_n and_o my_o brethren_n the_o harsh_a deal_n of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v a_o shrewd_a trial_n to_o we_o two_o thing_n i_o shall_v intimate_v in_o this_o the_o lord_n by_o harsh_a deal_n make_v a_o trial_n of_o two_o thing_n first_o christ_n will_v make_v a_o trial_n of_o the_o reality_n of_o our_o

of_o our_o faith_n too_o first_o christ_n by_o this_o make_v a_o trial_n of_o the_o reality_n of_o our_o spiritual_a hunger_n by_o which_o we_o pretend_v to_o long_o after_o christ_n all_o be_v not_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n for_o christ_n which_o seem_v so_o to_o be_v the_o soul_n come_v to_o christ_n as_o a_o man_n that_o be_v a_o hungry_a come_v to_o bread_n and_o oh_o say_v the_o soul_n i_o be_o hungry_a and_o now_o ●●●ist_n will_v try_v he_o he_o come_v and_o say_v he_o thirst_v for_o righteousness_n and_o bread_n of_o life_n now_o say_v christ_n i_o will_v try_v he_o a_o little_a

a_o hungry_a man_n indeed_o will_v do_v so_o and_o i_o will_v try_v if_o this_o soul_n be_v as_o he_o say_v real_o hungry_a so_o christ_n hereby_o try_v our_o spiritual_a longing_n many_o pretend_v
