of_o king_n will_v provide_v for_o his_o servant_n who_o he_o feast_v he_o make_v a_o world_n and_o how_o glorious_a be_v it_o but_o if_o he_o make_v a_o heaven_n think_v with_o yourselves_o what_o a_o heaven_n it_o will_v be_v the_o scripture_n heb._n 11._o commend_v this_o to_o we_o compare_v the_o 10_o and_o 16_o verse_n together_o for_o he_o look_v say_v he_o for_o a_o city_n speak_v of_o abraham_n which_o have_v foundation_n who_o builder_n and_o founder_n be_v god_n and_o then_o verse_n 16._o god_n be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o be_v call_v their_o god_n for_o he_o have_v build_v for_o they_o a_o city_n mark_v the_o reason_n in_o the_o first_o place_n it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o city_n who_o builder_n and_o founder_n be_v god_n god_n be_v the_o artist_n of_o it_o he_o show_v his_o art_n in_o it_o in_o this_o build_n of_o heaven_n god_n show_v himself_o a_o artificer_n indeed_o god_n have_v make_v other_o great_a work_n as_o the_o world_n but_o he_o have_v show_v no_o art_n upon_o this_o in_o comparison_n of_o heaven_n the_o heaven_n which_o we_o see_v be_v but_o the_o ceiling_n of_o this_o heaven_n which_o god_n have_v prepare_v for_o his_o saint_n and_o yet_o they_o be_v very_o glorious_a but_o yet_o he_o have_v bestow_v no_o cost_n in_o comparison_n he_o have_v show_v no_o art_n on_o it_o in_o respect_n of_o heaven_n he_o have_v bestow_v all_o his_o cost_n on_o this_o in_o make_v heaven_n he_o show_v himself_o a_o artificer_n and_o will_v you_o know_v the_o reason_n of_o it_o it_o be_v because_o heaven_n be_v his_o stand_a house_n king_n you_o know_v use_v to_o enrich_v their_o stand_a house_n they_o bestow_v more_o cost_n upon_o they_o than_o other_o this_o world_n my_o brethren_n be_v not_o a_o house_n that_o have_v foundation_n but_o it_o be_v build_v by_o god_n as_o a_o stage_n upon_o which_o when_o man_n have_v act_v their_o part_n it_o be_v to_o be_v throw_v down_o it_o be_v set_v up_o for_o a_o few_o thousand_o year_n which_o be_v

cost_n god_n have_v bestow_v on_o it_o again_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o city_n prepare_v matthew_z 25._o 24._o come_v you_o bless_v of_o my_o father_n inherit_v the_o kingdom_n prepare_v for_o you_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n he_o speak_v as_o if_o god_n have_v be_v a_o great_a while_n in_o make_v heaven_n god_n have_v be_v long_o in_o contrive_v it_o nay_o further_o say_v christ_n i_o go_v to_o prepare_v a_o place_n as_o if_o it_o be_v still_o in_o finish_v as_o if_o it_o be_v not_o yet_o finish_v not_o but_o that_o all_o god_n work_n be_v perfect_a from_o the_o beginning_n but_o it_o be_v speak_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n that_o we_o may_v expect_v great_a glory_n for_o which_o there_o be_v such_o great_a preparation_n and_o say_v he_o if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o i_o will_v have_v tell_v you_o think_v what_o you_o will_v think_v of_o it_o and_o it_o will_v be_v answerable_a god_n will_v fulfil_v it_o heaven_n be_v a_o city_n prepare_v if_o there_o be_v but_o preparation_n for_o a_o coronation_n of_o a_o earthly_a king_n a_o month_n or_o a_o quarter_n of_o a_o year_n there_o be_v great_a thing_n expect_v and_o yet_o more_o be_v show_v but_o now_o god_n have_v be_v always_o in_o prepare_v heaven_n he_o have_v be_v make_v of_o it_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n david_n lay_v up_o material_n for_o the_o temple_n and_o solomon_n build_v so_o god_n prepare_v heaven_n and_o christ_n build_v it_o and_o therefore_o consider_v with_o yourselves_o there_o be_v great_a thing_n to_o be_v find_v expect_v what_o you_o can_v and_o it_o shall_v be_v answer_v and_o thus_o you_o see_v god_n have_v make_v a_o heaven_n with_o a_o foundation_n he_o have_v be_v long_o in_o prepare_v of_o it_o he_o set_v up_o the_o world_n in_o six_o day_n but_o he_o have_v be_v set_v up_o heaven_n as_o i_o may_v so_o say_v six_o thousand_o year_n and_o therefore_o let_v this_o raise_v up_o your_o heart_n to_o consider_v what_o a_o weight_n of_o glory_n god_n have_v lay_v up_o for_o those_o that_o love_v he_o second_o consider_v the_o cause_n 2._o cause_n material_a cause_n of_o it_o why_o it_o be_v christ_n the_o lord_n of_o glory_n christ_n jesus_n himself_o haste_v purchase_v it_o for_o we_o in_o his_o blood_n he_o have_v lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o it_o his_o blood_n be_v lay_v out_o for_o it_o he_o spin_a this_o thread_n of_o glory_n out_o of_o his_o own_o bowel_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v well_o argue_v the_o greatness_n of_o this_o glory_n see_v that_o his_o blood_n have_v obtain_v it_o 1_o eph._n it_o be_v there_o call_v the_o riches_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o inheritance_n all_o the_o inheritance_n that_o christ_n have_v he_o distribute_v it_o unto_o the_o saint_n this_o be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o purchase_a possession_n why_o now_o my_o brethren_n think_v with_o yourselves_o what_o shall_v be_v the_o revenue_n of_o glory_n purchase_v by_o his_o death_n think_v what_o a_o large_a possession_n the_o blood_n of_o christ_n will_v procure_v consider_v with_o yourselves_o what_o this_o will_v amount_v to_o and_o this_o be_v heaven_n heaven_n it_o the_o revenue_n of_o christ_n blood_n think_v i_o say_v what_o glorious_a heaven_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v which_o christ_n blood_n have_v purchase_v for_o we_o this_o be_v that_o he_o aim_v at_o in_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o we_o justification_n adoption_n and_o sanctification_n they_o be_v but_o the_o way_n to_o glorification_n they_o be_v but_o the_o subsidy_n of_o it_o we_o be_v justify_v adopt_v and_o sanctify_v all_o to_o this_o end_n that_o we_o may_v be_v glorify_v consider_v therefore_o what_o christ_n blood_n will_v be_v worth_a what_o the_o revenue_n of_o it_o will_v come_v to_o and_o therefore_o what_o have_v be_v say_v of_o heaven_n let_v it_o move_v you_o and_o work_v upon_o you_o if_o i_o shall_v single_v out_o any_o man_n present_a any_o particular_a man_n in_o this_o congregation_n as_o our_o

all_o stand_v arrest_v before_o god_n you_o deserve_v to_o be_v accurse_v and_o to_o be_v eternal_o so_o yet_o if_o you_o will_v leave_v all_o your_o iniquity_n repent_v and_o believe_v you_o shall_v

like_o man_n you_o will_v not_o let_v heaven_n this_o precious_a heaven_n pass_v you_o you_o will_v lay_v hold_n on_o it_o and_o spend_v all_o you_o have_v to_o get_v it_o and_o to_o be_v make_v
