by_o that_o dismal_a appearance_n of_o thing_n upon_o mount_n sinai_n at_o the_o delivery_n of_o the_o law_n god_n come_v down_o upon_o it_o in_o his_o majesty_n and_o glory_n and_o then_o the_o

a_o christian_a be_v to_o stand_v steadfast_a here_o to_o live_v above_o the_o fear_n of_o hell_n and_o wrath_n and_o amid_o all_o that_o unworthiness_n weakness_n sinfulness_n he_o behold_v in_o himself_o yet_o to_o esteem_v himself_o in_o christ_n perfect_o righteous_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o so_o to_o be_v at_o peace_n the_o apostle_n exhort_v to_o this_o heb._n 10._o 22._o

from_o faith_n and_o call_v not_o the_o soul_n off_o from_o the_o true_a foundation_n 2._o the_o second_o thing_n which_o be_v apt_a to_o disquiet_v the_o soul_n be_v the_o temptation_n of_o satan_n he_o be_v a_o unquiet_a turbulent_a spirit_n and_o be_v still_o seek_v to_o draw_v the_o soul_n off_o from_o the_o centre_n of_o her_o rest_n and_o peace_n and_o though_o he_o can_v rob_v she_o of_o

22._o 31._o wheat_n be_v not_o winnow_v without_o much_o move_a and_o shake_v now_o a_o christian_a be_v to_o stand_v fast_o against_o satan_n to_o resist_v he_o steadfast_a in_o the_o faith_n to_o 18._o 1_o pet._n 5._o 9_o 1_o john_n 5._o 18._o keep_v himself_o that_o the_o wicked_a one_o may_v not_o touch_v he_o and_o thus_o he_o do_v when_o he_o stand_v upon_o his_o foundation_n when_o he_o live_v above_o with_o god_n and_o in_o god_n he_o have_v satan_n under_o his_o foot_n though_o he_o cast_v his_o fiery_a dart_n at_o he_o yet_o they_o be_v all_o quench_v and_o hurt_v he_o not_o but_o when_o he_o come_v from_o his_o foundation_n and_o parley_n with_o he_o and_o consent_n to_o his_o suggestion_n then_o be_v he_o wound_v by_o he_o the_o devil_n can_v not_o touch_v christ_n because_o he_o abide_v steadfast_a in_o the_o godhead_n and_o the_o will_n of_o the_o father_n he_o set_v the_o lord_n always_o before_o he_o and_o keep_v satan_n behind_o he_o 23_o psal_n 16._o 8._o mat._n

tremble_v and_o moses_n himself_o say_v i_o exceed_o fear_v and_o quake_v this_o be_v the_o natural_a effect_n of_o the_o law_n to_o cause_v earthquake_n and_o shake_n in_o the_o soul_n when_o a_o poor_a christian_a look_n upon_o the_o purity_n and_o strictness_n of_o the_o law_n point_v with_o wrath_n &_o curse_n against_o the_o least_o transgression_n as_o also_o the_o holiness_n justice_n
