here_o be_v a_o very_a worthy_a example_n i_o pray_v you_o let_v we_o follow_v it_o and_o if_o we_o see_v at_o any_o time_n that_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v never_o so_o dear_a unto_o we_o must_v be_v take_v away_o if_o it_o make_v for_o the_o honour_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n yield_v it_o up_o with_o all_o willingness_n and_o be_v sure_a that_o what_o ever_o you_o give_v he_o else_o give_v he_o the_o heart_n for_o with_o less_o than_o that_o he_o will_v not_o be_v please_v the_o next_o duty_n that_o i_o shall_v lay_v before_o you_o be_v the_o fear_n of_o god_n i_o pray_v you_o consider_v what_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o reason_n you_o have_v to_o fear_v this_o most_o glorious_a and_o only_a true_a god_n and_o to_o fear_v he_o only_o for_o he_o it_o be_v that_o can_v do_v you_o good_a or_o hurt_n he_o can_v do_v either_o and_o none_o in_o the_o world_n can_v hinder_v he_o if_o god_n undertake_v to_o be_v a_o man_n defence_n all_o the_o world_n can_v hurt_v he_o although_o they_o put_v forth_o their_o utmost_a power_n for_o the_o lord_n will_v find_v out_o a_o thousand_o way_n to_o deliver_v a_o man_n from_o the_o strong_a tyrant_n in_o the_o world_n likewise_o if_o the_o

in_o awe_n of_o he_o and_o do_v not_o let_v the_o fear_n of_o man_n cause_v you_o to_o turn_v out_o of_o the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v much_o better_a for_o to_o make_v all_o the_o man_n in_o the_o world_n your_o enemy_n yea_o even_o your_o dear_a friend_n and_o all_o rather_o than_o god_n but_o i_o pray_v you_o fear_v he_o as_o god_n not_o slavish_o but_o as_o it_o become_v child_n let_v the_o fear_n and_o dread_n of_o his_o great_a name_n awe_v your_o heart_n continual_o and_o remember_v that_o it_o be_v a_o fearful_a thing_n to_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o live_a god_n but_o withal_o consider_v his_o love_n and_o compassion_n to_o sinner_n his_o wisdom_n and_o faithfulness_n as_o well_o as_o his_o righteousness_n and_o power_n that_o your_o fear_n of_o he_o may_v be_v mix_v with_o love_n to_o he_o and_o confidence_n in_o he_o that_o so_o a_o childlike_a reverence_n and_o a_o humble_a awe_n may_v be_v continual_o upon_o your_o heart_n and_o take_v heed_n that_o the_o fear_n of_o man_n do_v not_o snare_v you_o remember_v what_o isaiah_n say_v to_o this_o isai_n 51_o 12.13_o who_o art_n thou_o that_o thou_o shall_v be_v afraid_a of_o a_o man_n that_o shall_v die_v and_o of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n that_o shall_v be_v make_v as_o grass_n and_o forget_v the_o lord_n thy_o maker_n that_o have_v stretch_v forth_o the_o heaven_n and_o lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o earth_n here_o you_o see_v how_o the_o prophet_n reason_n we_o out_o of_o this_o sin_n first_o he_o ask_v who_o he_o be_v that_o fear_n man_n intimate_v that_o it_o be_v some_o strange_a creature_n some_o coward_n or_o fool_n one_o that_o have_v strange_o forget_v himself_o and_o he_o show_v the_o reason_n first_o the_o man_n shall_v die_v that_o be_v fear_v and_o therefore_o a_o foolish_a thing_n to_o fear_v he_o that_o shall_v neither_o live_v to_o reward_v he_o nor_o to_o punish_v he_o second_o he_o shall_v be_v make_v as_o grass_n and_o what_o wise_a man_n will_v fear_v so_o vain_a a_o thing_n as_o grass_n a_o powerless_a creature_n that_o can_v neither_o help_v nor_o hurt_v a_o man_n three_o and_o that_o which_o make_v the_o sin_n very_o great_a be_v this_o that_o while_o a_o man_n fear_v man_n he_o forget_v god_n now_o there_o be_v three_o consideration_n more_o in_o this_o thirteen_o verse_n that_o shall_v keep_v up_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n in_o the_o heart_n and_o shall_v likewise_o keep_v down_o the_o fear_n of_o man_n first_o he_o be_v our_o maker_n second_o he_o stretch_v out_o the_o heaven_n three_o he_o lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o earth_n as_o if_o the_o prophet_n shall_v say_v if_o a_o man_n will_v consider_v the_o workmanship_n of_o god_n when_o he_o look_v to_o the_o heaven_n or_o when_o he_o look_v to_o the_o earth_n and_o consider_v the_o glorious_a work_n that_o god_n have_v do_v in_o both_o or_o if_o a_o man_n do_v but_o look_v upon_o himself_o and_o consider_o mind_v how_o he_o be_v make_v and_o who_o be_v his_o maker_n he_o will_v never_o be_v so_o foolish_a as_o to_o suffer_v the_o fear_n of_o man_n so_o to_o prevail_v to_o the_o eat_v out_o of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n out_o of_o the_o heart_n but_o will_v walk_v always_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o he_o who_o be_v alone_o to_o be_v fear_v and_o meet_v to_o be_v have_v in_o special_a reverence_n of_o all_o that_o come_v about_o he_o but_o i_o shall_v proceed_v to_o the_o three_o duty_n and_o that_o be_v dependence_n upon_o this_o only_a true_a god_n beloved_n there_o be_v no_o other_o that_o you_o can_v trust_v in_o but_o in_o he_o you_o may_v trust_v safe_o a_o
eternal_a life_n and_o hinder_v you_o from_o walk_v in_o the_o path_n that_o lead_v unto_o it_o and_o so_o deprive_v you_o of_o it_o as_o unavoidable_o as_o sin_v itself_o can_v do_v it_o and_o as_o you_o be_v to_o avoid_v these_o evil_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n so_o on_o the_o other_o it_o will_v be_v meet_a to_o wait_v on_o the_o lord_n jesus_n for_o the_o sweet_a taste_n of_o his_o love_n the_o which_o when_o you_o have_v once_o experience_n of_o you_o will_v by_o that_o earnest_a penny_n know_v something_o of_o the_o riches_n &_o worth_n of_o eternal_a life_n now_o for_o that_o end_n i_o beseech_v you_o wait_v attentive_o for_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o use_n of_o all_o his_o ordinance_n for_o there_o he_o will_v be_v find_v in_o they_o in_o the_o assembly_n of_o his_o people_n you_o may_v expect_v to_o find_v he_o because_o it_o be_v his_o walk_n but_o take_v notice_n i_o pray_v you_o that_o a_o negligent_a formal_a overt_o use_v of_o they_o i_o do_v not_o call_v for_o but_o be_v

although_o you_o be_v never_o so_o impenitent_a and_o wicked_a yet_o rest_n upon_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n yea_o if_o you_o think_v also_o that_o you_o have_v attain_v some_o virtue_n patience_n or_o love_n or_o other_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n yet_o do_v not_o as_o saint_n but_o as_o sinnet_n rest_n upon_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n remember_v i_o pray_v you_o that_o neither_o
