on_o they_o then_o have_v they_o no_o reason_n to_o be_v discourage_v or_o cast_v down_o because_o they_o be_v tempt_v now_o so_o it_o be_v christ_n be_v a_o common_a person_n not_o only_o in_o his_o

because_o they_o be_v upon_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n so_o when_o man_n be_v under_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n if_o they_o miscarry_v but_o in_o one_o action_n though_o tempt_v thereto_o by_o satan_n yet_o god_n may_v cast_v they_o thereby_o now_o all_o the_o wicked_a still_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n and_o therefore_o though_o it_o be_v but_o one_o act_n wherein_o they_o miscarry_v and_o they_o be_v draw_v thereunto_o by_o satan_n yet_o god_n sometime_o do_v and_o just_o may_v cast_v they_o thereby_o unto_o all_o eternity_n but_o as_o for_o the_o saint_n and_o people_n of_o god_n they_o be_v not_o under_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n but_o of_o grace_n all_o of_o they_o be_v so_o and_o therefore_o god_n deal_v gracious_o with_o they_o not_o measure_v they_o by_o any_o one_o carriage_n under_o one_o temptation_n no_o say_v the_o lord_n it_o be_v but_o the_o time_n of_o their_o temptation_n i_o will_v not_o measure_v this_o man_n or_o woman_n by_o what_o they_o be_v now_o but_o as_o they_o be_v when_o they_o be_v cool_v most_o themselves_o and_o out_o of_o temptation_n o_o what_o a_o gracious_a privilege_n be_v this_o who_o will_v not_o labour_v to_o

what_o then_o what_o shall_v i_o do_v that_o i_o may_v bear_v up_o my_o heart_n against_o all_o discouragement_n in_o this_o kind_n that_o i_o may_v not_o be_v cast_v down_o or_o discourage_v by_o

be_v answ_n i_o will_v say_v nothing_o to_o your_o natural_a temper_n if_o temptation_n arise_v from_o natural_a cause_n then_o natural_a mean_n as_o physic_n be_v to_o be_v use_v and_o apply_v and_o people_n shall_v do_v well_o to_o be_v persuade_v thereunto_o but_o somewhat_o by_o way_n of_o direction_n spiritual_o first_n if_o you_o will_v not_o be_v discourage_v under_o your_o temptation_n take_v heed_n that_o when_o you_o be_v in_o temptation_n you_o do_v not_o expect_v too_o much_o from_o any_o one_o mean_n of_o help_n over_o expectation_n breed_v discouragement_n disappointment_n do_v breed_v discouragement_n it_o be_v not_o the_o sadness_n of_o your_o condition_n but_o disappointment_n that_o do_v cause_n discouragement_n if_o a_o man_n be_v in_o debt_n and_o under_o a_o

from_o than_o he_o be_v quite_o discourage_v if_o a_o man_n be_v in_o the_o water_n wherein_o there_o be_v danger_n of_o drown_v so_o long_o as_o he_o can_v get_v hold_n of_o something_o that_o will_v

plunge_v into_o the_o water_n and_o if_o he_o be_v not_o scare_v out_o of_o all_o thought_n he_o be_v more_o discourage_v than_o ever_o so_o here_o in_o temptation_n we_o be_v as_o in_o the_o water_n and_o in_o fear_n of_o drown_v cry_v out_o we_o sink_v we_o sink_v then_o we_o fly_v to_o some_o tuft_n of_o grass_n some_o mean_n or_o other_o and_o if_o that_o break_v or_o fail_v than_o we_o be_v quite_o discourage_v will_v you_o not_o therefore_o be_v deject_v or_o cast_v down_o in_o time_n of_o temptation_n take_v heed_n that_o you_o do_v not_o lay_v all_o your_o strength_n upon_o one_o tuft_n of_o grass_n this_o or_o that_o man_n counsel_n this_o or_o that_o particular_a mean_n but_o say_v rather_o i_o be_o now_o indeed_o in_o the_o deep_a and_o in_o fear_n of_o drown_v see_v no_o

yet_o i_o will_v not_o rest_v on_o they_o and_o though_o all_o tuft_n of_o grass_n break_v and_o anchor_n come_v home_o yet_o i_o will_v wait_v on_o god_n second_o if_o you_o will_v not_o be_v discourage_v in_o time_n of_o temptation_n take_v heed_n that_o you_o do_v not_o say_v of_o your_o temptation_n this_o be_v no_o temptation_n satan_n tempt_v first_o unto_o what_o be_v evil_a and_o then_o he_o tempt_v god_n people_n to_o think_v that_o their_o temptation_n be_v no_o temptation_n as_o long_o as_o a_o man_n think_v it_o be_v but_o a_o temptation_n he_o think_v it_o will_v not_o last_v long_o it_o be_v but_o a_o temptation_n it_o will_v not_o hold_v always_o and_o so_o his_o heart_n be_v in_o some_o measure_n uphold_v with_o hope_n but_o when_o satan_n can_v persuade_v that_o the_o temptation_n be_v no_o temptation_n but_o a_o worse_a matter_n than_o the_o heart_n sink_v and_o die_v take_v heed_n therefore_o that_o you_o do_v not_o say_v that_o your_o temptation_n be_v no_o temptation_n three_o consider_v what_o infinite_a engagement_n be_v upon_o jesus_n christ_n to_o succour_v and_o relieve_v poor_a tempt_v soul_n you_o can_v never_o be_v discourage_v under_o

for_o h●_n be_v therefore_o tempt_v that_o he_o may_v be_v able_a experimental_o to_o succour_v those_o that_o be_v tempt_v engage_v he_o be_v by_o promise_n for_o he_o have_v say_v he_o will_v not_o

by_o the_o avenger_n of_o blood_n if_o the_o manslayer_n flee_v unto_o a_o city_n of_o refuge_n he_o be_v safe_a there_o where_o he_o be_v to_o stay_v till_o the_o death_n of_o the_o highpriest_n and_o when_o the_o highpriest_n die_v than_o he_o be_v set_v at_o liberty_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v our_o highpriest_n by_o who_o death_n we_o be_v set_v at_o liberty_n and_o by_o who_o life_n we_o be_v all_o preserve_v it_o be_v his_o office_n to_o succour_v poor_a tempt_v soul_n pursue_v by_o avenger_n of_o blood_n and_o if_o a_o good_a man_n be_v faithful_a in_o his_o office_n much_o more_o will_v christ_n by_o who_o all_o other_o man_n be_v faithful_a yea_o god_n our_o father_n have_v erect_v a_o office_n for_o the_o succor_n of_o poor_a tempt_v soul_n and_o jesus_n christ_n have_v this_o office_n whenever_o therefore_o you_o be_v tempt_v &_o fear_v you_o shall_v miscarry_v under_o your_o temptation_n then_o remember_v christ_n and_o say_v o_o but_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v in_o office_n he_o be_v bind_v by_o office_n to_o succour_v poor_a tempt_v soul_n and_o such_o a_o one_o be_o i_o he_o be_v engage_v by_o his_o own_o temptation_n he_o be_v engage_v by_o

though_o i_o be_v tempt_v unto_o what_o be_v evil_a yet_o avoid_v satan_n for_o i_o shall_v be_v deliver_v i_o be_o tempt_v but_o i_o shall_v be_v deliver_v for_o the_o lord_n
a_o fault_n and_o a_o man_n take_v the_o one_o and_o correct_v he_o and_o let_v the_o other_o go_v it_o argue_v rather_o that_o he_o be_v his_o father_n than_o not_o so_o though_o chastisement_n do_v not_o always_o argue_v god_n to_o be_v our_o father_n yet_o it_o do_v rather_o argue_v his_o fatherly_a love_n than_o not_o answ_n 2_o and_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n in_o god_n that_o be_v not_o a_o

but_o his_o sword_n be_v his_o friend_n so_o if_o god_n be_v a_o friend_n to_o a_o man_n then_o not_o only_o his_o love_n be_v his_o friend_n and_o his_o mercy_n his_o friend_n but_o his_o sword_n be_v his_o friend_n his_o anger_n be_v his_o friend_n now_o god_n be_v a_o friend_n to_o all_o the_o saint_n and_o therefore_o his_o very_a anger_n and_o justice_n be_v a_o friend_n too_o but_o answ_n 3_o in_o the_o three_o place_n what_o be_v those_o visible_a character_n of_o love_n which_o be_v engrave_v upon_o a_o affliction_n first_n if_o affliction_n be_v a_o blessing_n to_o one_o than_o it_o do_v come_v from_o love_n and_o if_o a_o man_n can_v bless_v god_n under_o affliction_n than_o it_o be_v a_o blessing_n to_o he_o job_n affliction_n be_v a_o blessing_n to_o he_o why_o because_o he_o bless_a god_n under_o it_o the_o lord_n give_v and_o the_o lord_n take_v away_o bless_a be_v his_o name_n etc._n etc._n second_o if_o a_o affliction_n do_v end_n in_o our_o love_n to_o god_n than_o it_o come_v from_o god_n love_n to_o we_o for_o our_o love_n be_v but_o a_o reflection_n of_o god_n love_n and_o it_o do_v flow_v from_o he_o and_o if_o i_o can_v say_v i_o love_v god_n never_o the_o worse_a for_o this_o affliction_n than_o i_o may_v say_v god_n love_v i_o never_o the_o lesser_a notwithstanding_o this_o affliction_n three_o if_o a_o affliction_n teach_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n than_o it_o do_v come_v from_o love_n as_o many_o as_o he_o love_v he_o chastise_v and_o bless_v be_v the_o man_n who_o thou_o chastise_v and_o teach_v out_o of_o thy_o law_n so_o that_o if_o affliction_n be_v a_o teach_a affliction_n than_o it_o do_v come_v from_o love_n four_o if_o it_o be_v lay_v on_o in_o measure_n and_o impose_v in_o due_a and_o seasonable_a time_n so_o as_o a_o man_n may_v grow_v thereby_o than_o it_o do_v come_v from_o love_n when_o a_o man_n intend_v to_o kill_v and_o destroy_v a_o tree_n or_o to_o bring_v it_o unto_o the_o fire_n he_o cut_v it_o at_o any_o time_n so_o as_o it_o shall_v grow_v no_o more_o but_o if_o he_o cut_v it_o in_o a_o due_a time_n it_o argue_v that_o he_o intend_v it_o for_o growth_n so_o when_o god_n prune_v and_o cut_v by_o affliction_n in_o such_o a_o time_n as_o man_n may_v grow_v in_o grace_n it_o argue_v his_o love_n five_o when_o god_n be_v especial_o present_a in_o affliction_n and_o more_o present_a in_o a_o affliction_n than_o at_o another_o time_n it_o argue_v that_o the_o affliction_n do_v come_v from_o love_n now_o whoever_o you_o be_v that_o make_v this_o objection_n and_o fear_v the_o affliction_n do_v not_o come_v from_o love_n be_v you_o not_o able_a to_o say_v thus_o i_o find_v it_o indeed_o though_o i_o have_v be_v much_o afflict_v yet_o through_o grace_n i_o have_v b●en_o able_a to_o bless_v the_o lord_n under_o my_o affliction_n and_o to_o say_v the_o lord_n give_v and_o the_o lord_n take_v away_o etc._n etc._n i_o love_v the_o lord_n never_o the_o lesser_a for_o my_o affliction_n and_o the_o lord_n have_v teach_v i_o much_o in_o this_o my_o affliction_n i_o have_v gain_v more_o by_o my_o sickness_n than_o by_o many_o a_o sermon_n yea_o and_o he_o have_v cut_v i_o in_o due_a time_n for_o if_o i_o have_v not_o meet_v with_o such_o a_o affliction_n at_o such_o a_o time_n i_o do_v not_o know_v what_o evil_a i_o shall_v have_v fall_v into_o and_o this_o i_o must_v needs_o say_v i_o have_v have_v more_o of_o god_n presence_n in_o my_o affliction_n than_o ever_o i_o have_v before_o well_o then_o be_v of_o good_a comfort_n though_o your_o affliction_n be_v very_o grievous_a yet_o it_o do_v come_v from_o love_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o all_o the_o saint_n and_o people_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o why_o shall_v they_o be_v discourage_v whatever_o their_o affliction_n be_v object_n 8_o but_o though_o a_o christian_a have_v no_o reason_n to_o be_v discourage_v in_o regard_n of_o his_o own_o private_a affliction_n yet_o have_v he_o not_o reason_n to_o

and_o o_o that_o we_o can_v weep_v day_n and_o night_n and_o pray_v too_o for_o this_o poor_a bleed_a nation_n if_o ever_o god_n people_n here_o in_o england_n have_v cause_n to_o be_v afflict_v trouble_a and_o humble_v under_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o run_v together_o in_o prayer_n sure_o they_o have_v reason_n now_o yet_o say_v the_o scripture_n say_v to_o the_o righteous_a in_o evil_a time_n it_o shall_v go_v well_o with_o he_o do_v ever_o any_o calamity_n come_v down_o like_o a_o storm_n upon_o a_o kingdom_n but_o god_n do_v provide_v some_o hide_v for_o his_o own_o

which_o come_v in_o by_o sin_n if_o god_n spare_v i_o from_o the_o two_o former_a death_n the_o spiritu●l_a death_n and_o eternal_a death_n and_o only_o inflict_v the_o temporal_a death_n have_v i_o

have_v suffer_v great_a and_o hard_a thing_n answ_n true_o you_o have_v hear_v it_o may_v be_v of_o some_o jesuit_n die_v for_o their_o religion_n it_o be_v possible_a that_o a_o wicked_a man_n may_v

though_o a_o wicked_a man_n may_v suffer_v very_o great_a and_o hard_a thing_n yet_o he_o may_v also_o suffer_v as_o a_o evil_a doer_n if_o you_o suffer_v for_o evil_a do_v say_v the_o apostle_n what_o thanks_o have_v you_o but_o faith_n true_a save_a faith_n it_o do_v well_o and_o suffer_v ill_a and_o second_o though_o a_o wicked_a man_n may_v suffer_v much_o and_o very_o hard_a thing_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o suffer_v upon_o choice_n he_o will_v choose_v rather_o if_o it_o be_v at_o his_o choice_n to_o make_v a_o breach_n upon_o conscience_n than_o a_o breach_n in_o his_o estate_n for_o to_o lose_v his_o conscience_n than_o to_o lose_v his_o life_n he_o do_v not_o suffer_v upon_o choice_n faith_n do_v by_o faith_n moses_n choose_v rather_o to_o suffer_v affliction_n with_o the_o people_n of_o god_n true_a save_a faith_n it_o suffer_v great_a and_o hard_a thing_n and_o that_o upon_o choice_n and_o three_o though_o a_o wicked_a man_n may_v suffer_v much_o yet_o he_o do_v

of_o his_o recantation_n and_o be_v as_o cheerful_a as_o any_o other_o faith_n suffer_v cheerful_o five_o though_o a_o wicked_a man_n may_v suffer_v much_o and_o that_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o his_o religion_n yet_o he_o will_v rest_v upon_o his_o suffering_n faith_n will_v make_v one_o suffer_v and_o keep_v one_o from_o rest_v upon_o one_o suffer_v as_o in_o regard_n of_o duty_n faith_n
