glory_n while_o we_o look_v not_o at_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v but_o at_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o see_v for_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v be_v temporal_a but_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o see_v be_v eternal_a 2._o when_o the_o heart_n fail_v when_o the_o spirit_n be_v toss_v and_o ready_a to_o be_v overwhelm_v christian_n in_o this_o case_n will_v grant_v that_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n be_v abundant_o able_a to_o bear_v up_o the_o heart_n in_o soul-trouble_a but_o this_o be_v the_o trouble_n of_o their_o soul_n they_o neither_o do_v and_o they_o fear_v they_o never_o shall_v enjoy_v god_n to_o those_o that_o make_v this_o mournful_a complaint_n i_o have_v one_o general_a request_n before_o i_o undertake_v their_o particular_a comfort_n that_o be_v that_o they_o will_v observe_v from_o this_o very_a text_n that_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n may_v consist_v with_o soul-trouble_a grant_v but_o this_o and_o i_o hope_v though_o thou_o be_v a_o tremble_a christian_a full_a of_o spiritual_a jealousy_n yet_o thou_o shall_v see_v ere_o we_o part_v that_o thou_o may_v and_o that_o thou_o do_v enjoy_v god_n in_o thy_o soul-trouble_a suppose_v i_o shall_v peremptory_o assert_v it_o what_o have_v thou_o to_o say_v to_o the_o contrary_a 1._o this_o be_v for_o christian_n of_o the_o high_a form_n god_n special_a presence_n be_v only_o fit_a for_o height_n of_o grace_n and_o that_o i_o have_v no_o hope_n of_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v 1._o by_o way_n of_o concession_n it_o be_v very_o desirable_a to_o have_v abundance_n of_o grace_n to_o be_v strong_a man_n in_o christ_n able_a to_o digest_v strong_a meat_n that_o be_v the_o more_o secret_a mystery_n of_o grace_n but_o 2._o bare_a weakness_n never_o yet_o make_v any_o breach_n between_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n nor_o hinder_v communion_n with_o he_o be_v thou_o less_o indulgent_a to_o thy_o child_n because_o he_o be_v a_o sick_a child_n and_o a_o weak_a child_n psa_fw-la 103.13_o like_a as_o a_o father_n pity_v his_o child_n so_o the_o lord_n pity_v they_o that_o fear_v he_o but_o 2._o it_o be_v not_o weakness_n so_o much_o as_o wickedness_n corruption_n be_v prevalent_a and_o such_o corruption_n as_o many_o time_n i_o be_o afraid_a be_v inconsistent_a with_o grace_n and_o therefore_o i_o may_v sad_o expect_v to_o be_v set_v at_o a_o eternal_a distance_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v also_o 1._o by_o way_n of_o concession_n it_o be_v a_o just_a and_o a_o sad_a cause_n of_o complaint_n to_o have_v conscience_n fly_v in_o thy_o face_n because_o of_o sin_n our_o sin_n be_v call_v our_o debt_n we_o may_v easy_o run_v into_o debt_n but_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o get_v out_o we_o may_v easy_o fall_v into_o sin_n but_o not_o so_o easy_o recover_v our_o stand_n but_o 2._o if_o sin_n be_v discern_v it_o be_v thereby_o weaken_v a_o penitential_a eye_n have_v a_o kind_n of_o fascination_n it_o be_v in_o sin_n as_o in_o treason_n if_o a_o treason_n be_v discover_v before_o it_o break_v out_o the_o treason_n itself_o be_v thereby_o break_a that_o soul_n that_o be_v true_o sensible_a of_o its_o danger_n be_v pass_v it_o though_o god_n may_v deal_v by_o thou_o as_o david_n by_o absolom_n keep_v thou_o for_o a_o while_n at_o some_o humble_v distance_n yet_o thou_o may_v beg_v of_o god_n more_o confident_o than_o absolom_n do_v of_o david_n that_o thou_o may_v see_v his_o face_n because_o thou_o be_v not_o able_a to_o bear_v his_o estrangement_n and_o thou_o shall_v not_o be_v deny_v but_o shall_v have_v either_o comfortable_a fruition_n or_o profitable_a support_n 3._o but_o yet_o more_o but_o his_o yet_o aye_fw-mi and_o yet_o alas_o my_o heart_n be_v not_o in_o a_o posture_n fit_a for_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n there_o shall_v be_v some_o suitableness_n in_o the_o subject_n for_o so_o great_a a_o privilege_n but_o alas_o i_o be_o i_o know_v not_o what_o i_o be_o i_o be_o every_o way_n worse_o than_o you_o can_v imagine_v i_o to_o be_v to_o this_o if_o i_o shall_v give_v the_o answer_n wherewith_o it_o be_v say_v some_o body_n confute_v bellarmine_n in_o say_v bellarmine_n thou_o lie_v perhaps_o this_o answer_n will_v be_v remember_v long_o than_o a_o fine_a one_o and_o it_o be_v your_o profit_n my_o soul_n desire_v god_n know_v i_o have_v rather_o any_o one_o though_o the_o mean_a in_o the_o congregation_n shall_v say_v the_o sermon_n do_v i_o good_a than_o that_o every_o one_o shall_v say_v it_o be_v a_o good_a sermon_n well_o then_o take_v this_o rude_a answer_n thou'lt_v and_o pray_v observe_v how_o i_o demonstrate_v it_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o believe_v thyself_o in_o what_o thou_o say_v than_o thy_o complaint_n be_v a_o hypocritical_a untruth_n for_o to_o say_v thus_o of_o thyself_o in_o proud_a humility_n be_v base_a hypocrisy_n if_o thou_o do_v think_v as_o thou_o speak_v then_o it_o be_v a_o comfortable_a mistake_n and_o that_o which_o do_v evidence_n height_n of_o grace_n for_o those_o that_o be_v vile_a in_o their_o own_o eye_n be_v person_n in_o who_o god_n delight_v you_o never_o read_v in_o scripture_n of_o any_o that_o bespattered_a himself_o as_o paul_n do_v but_o be_v not_o those_o passage_n his_o

thou_o in_o his_o bosom_n and_o whence_o have_v thou_o at_o present_a thy_o constant_a support_n whence_o have_v thy_o though_o but_o seldom_o reviving_n be_v it_o not_o god_n that_o uphold_v thy_o
