many_o time_n so_o that_o there_o be_v great_a need_n of_o the_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n beside_o all_o our_o evidence_n to_o put_v the_o matter_n out_o of_o doubt_n that_o we_o be_v effectual_o call_v and_o so_o it_o be_v write_v rom._n 8.15_o the_o spirit_n himself_o witness_v with_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n he_o make_v a_o heart-affecting_a discovery_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n to_o the_o soul_n rom._n 5.5_o excite_v and_o stir_v up_o faith_n in_o the_o heart_n to_o act_v afresh_o upon_o the_o lord_n jesus_n work_v some_o joy_n in_o the_o soul_n from_o the_o apprehension_n of_o our_o acceptance_n in_o christ_n the_o holy_a ghost_n sometime_o in_o assure_v we_o of_o god_n love_n in_o christ_n take_v promise_n in_o the_o scripture_n and_o set_v they_o with_o power_n upon_o the_o heart_n as_o i_o be_o he_o that_o blot_v out_o thy_o transgression_n for_o my_o own_o name_n sake_n and_o will_v remember_v thy_o sin_n no_o more_o not_o that_o all_o word_n of_o scripture_n that_o be_v cast_v into_o our_o mind_n be_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o sometime_o from_o satan_n sometime_o promise_v come_v into_o our_o mind_n in_o a_o ordinary_a way_n as_o other_o thing_n come_v to_o mind_n that_o we_o have_v read_v or_o hear_v but_o when_o any_o word_n of_o scriptute_fw-la be_v give_v in_o and_o apply_v in_o a_o way_n of_o comfort_n to_o our_o spirit_n from_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n 1._o it_o will_v take_v some_o impression_n though_o it_o may_v be_v that_o when_o the_o spirit_n come_v to_o comfort_n and_o witness_n he_o many_o time_n come_v not_o with_o such_o irresistibility_n as_o when_o he_o come_v to_o sanctify_v yet_o some_o impression_n it_o will_v have_v upon_o the_o heart_n if_o not_o to_o fill_v it_o with_o joy_n and_o triumph_v of_o spirit_n yet_o some_o way_n to_o support_v it_o and_o bear_v it_o up_o 2._o if_o it_o come_v from_o the_o spirit_n it_o will_v be_v suitable_a and_o seasonable_a to_o our_o condition_n as_o if_o a_o poor_a saint_n be_v in_o affliction_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v give_v in_o such_o a_o word_n as_o that_o in_o heb._n 12.9_o he_o afflict_v we_o for_o our_o profit_n that_o we_o may_v be_v partaker_n of_o his_o holiness_n this_o be_v a_o seasonable_a word_n but_o many_o will_v say_v that_o such_o a_o scripture_n be_v give_v in_o to_o they_o in_o such_o a_o condition_n when_o as_o the_o scripture_n be_v nothing_o suitable_a to_o their_o condition_n but_o they_o mistake_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o place_n 2._o when_o the_o spirit_n give_v in_o scripture_n usual_o though_o not_o always_o it_o be_v when_o the_o soul_n be_v in_o some_o strait_n some_o great_a strait_n and_o then_o he_o give_v they_o in_o some_o word_n upon_o which_o he_o cause_v they_o to_o hope_v 4._o such_o word_n of_o promise_n as_o the_o spirit_n apply_v thus_o to_o a_o soul_n be_v very_o dear_a to_o the_o soul_n ever_o after_o yea_o it_o make_v the_o whole_a word_n of_o god_n more_o dear_a to_o they_o and_o such_o word_n do_v abide_v upon_o the_o memory_n very_o long_o 5._o they_o raise_v up_o thankfulness_n in_o the_o heart_n 6._o they_o do_v not_o cherish_v we_o in_o any_o way_n of_o sin_n if_o you_o think_v you_o have_v any_o word_n from_o the_o lord_n to_o put_v you_o upon_o any_o thing_n that_o the_o word_n say_v be_v sin_n than_o you_o be_v mistake_v sometime_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o comfort_v and_o witness_v to_o we_o do_v not_o make_v use_n of_o any_o particular_a place_n and_o promise_n but_o make_v a_o general_a discovery_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o new_a covenant_n and_o apply_v that_o to_o the_o soul_n and_o show_v he_o that_o he_o have_v a_o interest_n in_o the_o new_a covenant_n that_o he_o be_v one_o of_o those_o who_o name_n be_v write_v in_o heaven_n and_o be_v sprinkle_v with_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n which_o cleanse_v he_o from_o all_o sin_n this_o also_o i_o will_v here_o note_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n do_v speak_v peace_n to_o the_o conscience_n of_o many_o believer_n that_o yet_o think_v they_o have_v no_o peace_n and_o question_v the_o truth_n of_o grace_n in_o their_o heart_n i_o say_v though_o it_o come_v not_o so_o high_a as_o ravishment_n of_o spirit_n yet_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o some_o more_o secret_a way_n have_v quiet_v their_o heart_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v else_o that_o those_o believer_n notwithstanding_o all_o their_o doubt_n yet_o do_v real_o and_o experimental_o find_v that_o they_o can_v go_v to_o god_n as_o to_o a_o father_n in_o prayer_n &_o they_o be_v carry_v out_o to_o put_v all_o their_o case_n to_o god_n and_o trust_v he_o with_o all_o their_o concernment_n and_o they_o find_v that_o the_o rancour_n of_o their_o spirit_n be_v take_v off_o against_o the_o lord_n these_o thing_n declare_v plain_o that_o in_o some_o secret_a way_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n have_v quiet_v their_o heart_n and_o give_v they_o some_o satisfaction_n concern_v their_o sincerity_n and_o truth_n of_o grace_n though_o it_o have_v not_o be_v so_o plain_a as_o to_o some_o other_o saint_n that_o have_v have_v full_a assurance_n and_o abundance_n of_o joy_n in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n thereupon_o let_v not_o the_o saint_n be_v impatient_a and_o fret_v to_o do_v evil_a if_o the_o spirit_n do_v present_o give_v they_o assurance_n neither_o let_v they_o think_v that_o they_o shall_v never_o have_v assurance_n because_o they_o have_v be_v long_o without_o it_o the_o lord_n oftentimes_o let_v thing_n come_v to_o the_o worst_a before_o he_o send_v help_v peace_n and_o assurance_n may_v be_v very_o near_o when_o thou_o think_v that_o there_o be_v almost_o now_o no_o hope_n yea_o this_o be_v observable_a that_o when_o the_o holy_a spirit_n shall_v give_v assurance_n after_o much_o doubt_n that_o assurance_n oftentimes_o be_v more_o last_a than_o other_o that_o have_v have_v comfort_v soon_o but_o god_n let_v some_o even_o spend_v their_o day_n in_o sigh_v and_o their_o year_n with_o heaviness_n and_o even_o mourn_v out_o their_o eye_n and_o heart_n and_o find_v no_o rest_n and_o peace_n in_o believe_v the_o lord_n make_v know_v to_o we_o by_o such_o example_n the_o bitterness_n of_o sin_n the_o power_n of_o his_o terror_n the_o danger_n of_o backslide_v and_o that_o he_o only_o can_v speak_v peace_n let_v christian_n beware_v of_o get_v a_o habit_n of_o complain_v and_o doubt_v as_o i_o have_v know_v some_o have_v get_v such_o a_o habit_n of_o complain_v that_o upon_o all_o occasion_n and_o in_o all_o company_n they_o must_v be_v lay_v out_o their_o doubt_n not_o but_o that_o christian_n shall_v make_v know_v their_o trouble_n and_o fear_n in_o suitable_a time_n one_o to_o another_o both_o that_o other_o see_v the_o strait_n that_o they_o be_v in_o may_v pray_v the_o more_o for_o they_o and_o may_v comfort_v they_o with_o the_o comfort_n wherewith_o they_o have_v be_v comfort_v of_o god_n but_o i_o say_v many_o have_v such_o a_o habit_n of_o complain_v that_o i_o have_v almost_o say_v whether_o they_o have_v doubt_n and_o trouble_n upon_o their_o spirit_n or_o no_o they_o think_v it_o not_o well_o if_o they_o have_v not_o some_o complaint_n to_o make_v and_o think_v that_o their_o godly_a friend_n expect_v it_o always_o from_o they_o some_z not_o consider_v what_o faith_n be_v viz._n the_o soul_n be_v bring_v off_o from_o all_o other_o thing_n to_o depend_v and_o rely_v upon_o the_o lord_n jesus_n for_o eternal_a life_n they_o bear_v false_a witness_n against_o themselves_o that_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v in_o christ_n think_v that_o faith_n be_v nothing_o but_o some_o high_a ravishment_n and_o almost_o perfection_n whereas_o ask_v such_o soul_n have_v the_o lord_n convince_v you_o of_o your_o miserable_a estate_n by_o nature_n both_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o damn_v and_o domineer_a power_n of_o sin_n and_o they_o can_v true_o say_v yea_o the_o lord_n have_v convince_v i_o of_o this_o ask_v they_o further_o have_v the_o lord_n show_v you_o that_o all_o your_o own_o righteousness_n can_v never_o save_v you_o nothing_o but_o a_o crucify_a christ_n can_v do_v it_o the_o soul_n can_v true_o say_v yes_o the_o lord_n have_v powerful_o convince_v i_o of_o this_o ask_v the_o soul_n further_o have_v the_o lord_n ever_o make_v you_o true_o sensible_a that_o you_o can_v not_o believe_v in_o your_o own_o strength_n but_o faith_n be_v the_o lord_n free_a gift_n and_o the_o soul_n can_v true_o say_v yes_o the_o lord_n have_v make_v i_o sensible_a of_o this_o and_o you_o ask_v further_o do_v you_o ever_o find_v a_o almighty_a power_n of_o god_n spirit_n draw_v your_o heart_n to_o christ_n to_o take_v he_o for_o the_o lord_n your_o righteousness_n so_o
