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

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 be_v discourage_v when_o it_o go_v ill_o with_o the_o public_a and_o thus_o it_o be_v now_o with_o we_o we_o see_v how_o it_o be_v with_o this_o poor_a nation_n trouble_n and_o calamity_n from_o every_o part_n therefore_o i_o be_o thus_o discourage_v and_o have_v i_o not_o cause_n to_o be_v cast_v down_o and_o to_o be_v much_o disquiet_v now_o answ_n indeed_o this_o be_v a_o sad_a thing_n 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

god_n when_o the_o saint_n in_o the_o primitive_a time_n come_v to_o bear_v witness_n by_o their_o death_n unto_o the_o truth_n of_o christ_n than_o they_o say_v now_o we_o begin_v to_o be_v christian_n indeed_o now_o we_o begin_v to_o be_v like_a to_o christ_n there_o be_v a_o threefold_a death_n spiritual_a death_n in_o sin_n eternal_a death_n for_o sin_n and_o temporal_a death_n 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

now_o it_o be_v faith_n only_o that_o do_v trade_n with_o the_o call_v of_o god_n god_n call_v be_v a_o great_a wal_n a_o strong_a wal_n god_n call_v can_v make_v a_o wal_n of_o water_n when_o the_o

be_v alike_o and_o yet_o a_o great_a unlikeness_n in_o the_o suffering_n and_o to_o clear_v up_o this_o to_o you_o that_o you_o may_v see_v that_o faith_n alone_o be_v able_a to_o do_v this_o first_n 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 not_o lay_v the_o stress_n of_o all_o upon_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n the_o stress_n of_o all_o be_v lay_v upon_o somewhat_o else_o faith_n love_v to_o suffer_v and_o it_o lay_v the_o stress_n of_o

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
