hee desires no other pacifier Temptation is subdued sinne and Satan must give way That supreme authority makes sinne and Satan vanish Rev. 1.18 A key is an ensigne of authority he that hath the Key may let in and shut out whom hee will So Christ can bring out whom he will Ephes 4.8 Looke how Conquerours lead captived slaves so Christ leads sinne and death Luke 10.18 When the Scepter of Christ was displayed Satan fell like lightning Sinne comes to be cashiered sinne pleads prescription in the Soule and challenges a title yet Christ having taken possession hee will have all charges when sinne saith I have possessed the Soule from my youth therefore why should I out Christ replies it is usurped all this title is but forged it is mine and I come for my owne therefore sinne depart Rom. 8.3 Christ condemnes sinne in the flesh to condemne sinne is as much as when a man hath cast in his cause hee layes claime to a thing and is cast by law So sinne layes claime to the Soule and Christ comes and condemnes sinne in the flesh Hee makes the cause goe against sinne for sinne claimes right on this ground every sonne of Adam is the childe of disobedience he is under my power and death is his due from mee Now Christ answers Those for whom the sinne of Adam hath beene satisfied over those sin hath no possession but the Soule is such doth Adams sin remaine I have satisfied for it Is sinne strong I have led captivity captive thus sinne loseth his cause this is to condemne sinne in the flesh Acts 26.18 First they were turned from the power of Sathan and then followed remission of sinnes and sanctification Hee disposes of the Soule for his best advantage when Satan the strong man kept the house and the soule was at his manage and tillage it either lay fallow ground as Ier. 4.3 overspread with thornes When sinne and Satan rule the heart they blinde it and the whole entertainement on our part as God calls so the Soule entertaines that call and that appeares in two things The sinner receives the worke of grace and mercy being empty The Lord may powre in what he will there is roome in the Soule to entertaine any thing and this is called passive receiving namely hereby God fits the Soule to receive mercy and prepares it that it may come and the soule being emptied entertaines the worke of mercy The soule being emptied and having received vertue from God returnes an answer to this call and this we call active calling The soule having received power by vertue of that power returnes an answer to the call of God as it is with an eccho first the ayre is moved by the voice secondly being moved it returnes the same voice So it is with the answer of the Soule Psal 27.8 Like that of the men of Syria 1 Kings 20.32.33 When Ahab said my brother Benhadad so the sinner waits and lookes when will God have mercy at last God saith my sonne and the Soule answereth thy Sonne Lord Ier. 3.22 marke how they answer Behold wee come for thou art the Lord our God The Lord saith come away and the Soule saith behold I come 1. Cor. 6.17 It s the same voyce that ecchos the same beame that reflects from the wall So it is the same spirit that returnes the voyce and this answer of the Soule wee tearme faith Now wee have cut out our worke and for the further handling we have chosen this text which is to discover this worke of vocation
