holy_a and_o profitable_a say_n of_o mr._n j._n g._n who_o depart_v this_o life_n the_o three_o day_n of_o this_o instant_a october_n 1678._o 1._o be_v the_o world_n to_o write_v a_o catalogue_n of_o its_o mercy_n that_o of_o our_o redemption_n ought_v to_o be_v place_v in_o the_o front_n of_o they_o 2._o the_o least_o interest_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v more_o true_o valuable_a than_o our_o firm_a claim_n to_o the_o great_a temporal_a felicity_n 3._o a_o young_a christian_a like_o a_o young_a soldier_n may_v at_o first_o be_v afraid_a to_o enter_v into_o spiritual_a warfare_n but_o when_o through_o a_o faith_n in_o christ_n he_o have_v once_o repel_v temptation_n he_o will_v never_o after_o leave_v fight_v under_o his_o banner_n 4._o it_o be_v but_o reason_n we_o shall_v trust_v god_n for_o temporal_a mercy_n since_o upon_o performance_n of_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n he_o assure_v we_o of_o those_o which_o be_v aeternal_a 5._o they_o pray_v in_o vain_a for_o pardon_v of_o sin_n who_o endeavour_v not_o to_o prevent_v sin_n by_o prayer_n 6._o the_o strictness_n of_o christianity_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v compute_v by_o the_o abundance_n of_o part_n it_o be_v often_o see_v that_o man_n who_o have_v a_o large_a share_n in_o natural_a accomplishment_n have_v a_o resemble_v quantity_n of_o corruption_n to_o balance_v they_o so_o that_o it_o be_v certain_o to_o be_v conclude_v that_o it_o be_v the_o illiterate_a saint_n not_o the_o elaborate_a sinner_n which_o at_o the_o last_o day_n shall_v be_v justify_v 7._o sin_n ought_v to_o be_v more_o terrible_a to_o we_o than_o death_n since_o there_o be_v nothing_o at_o our_o dissolution_n true_o worthy_a our_o fear_n but_o what_o the_o impiety_n of_o our_o life_n have_v make_v so_o 8._o as_o body_n and_o soul_n be_v keep_v distinct_a in_o their_o essence_n though_o they_o be_v unite_v to_o make_v a_o man_n so_o be_v the_o godhead_n and_o manhood_n of_o christ_n distinct_a in_o their_o nature_n notwithstanding_o the_o union_n of_o they_o in_o one_o person_n 9_o he_o who_o thirst_v after_o christ_n as_o the_o hart_n after_o the_o water-brook_a or_o true_o long_v for_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v long_o without_o he_o 10._o private_a prayer_n be_v often_o reward_v with_o a_o public_a blessing_n mat._n 6._o 6._o 11._o it_o be_v the_o practiser_n not_o the_o prater_n of_o religion_n shall_v be_v save_v 12._o our_o relation_n to_o christ_n be_v a_o most_o high_a prerogative_n we_o be_v his_o servant_n rome_n 〈…〉_z glory_v in_o it_o yea_o his_o friend_n christ_n

shall_v be_v reward_v with_o a_o delightfulness_n in_o heaven_n the_o pule_a soldier_n offer_v at_o the_o prize_n whilst_o the_o pursue_v one_o carry_v it_o away_o 14._o he_o who_o have_v much_o wealth_n have_v general_o as_o much_o trouble_n mix_v with_o it_o he_o who_o have_v none_o have_v more_o lord_n grant_v i_o that_o suitable_a competency_n which_o may_v supply_v my_o necessity_n

how_o vain_o do_v we_o set_v our_o affection_n on_o thing_n below_o since_o there_o be_v as_o much_o happiness_n in_o not_o desire_v as_o in_o enjoy_v the_o great_a temporal_a felicity_n 15._o he_o who_o will_v die_v without_o fear_n must_v endeavour_v to_o live_v without_o sin_n 16._o the_o common_a partaker_n of_o all_o outward_a comfort_n can_v distinguish_v the_o righteous_a from_o the_o wicked_a the_o friend_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o people_n from_o their_o enemy_n the_o heir_n of_o heaven_n or_o son_n of_o love_n from_o the_o child_n of_o wrath_n because_o eccles_n 9_o 1._o 2._o all_o thing_n come_v alike_o to_o all_o and_o no_o man_n know_v either_o love_n or_o hatred_n by_o all_o that_o be_v before_o they_o 17._o since_o christ_n shed_v his_o blood_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n how_o ought_v we_o to_o forgo_v our_o sin_n in_o consideration_n of_o his_o blood_n 18._o it_o be_v very_o strange_a but_o very_o true_a that_o a_o real_a christian_a have_v more_o satisfaction_n in_o persecution_n than_o a_o sinner_n in_o prosperity_n 19_o when_o in_o the_o various_a progress_n of_o human_a life_n i_o have_v serious_o consider_v the_o little_a satisfaction_n and_o certain_a affliction_n be_v to_o be_v have_v therein_o lord_n say_v i_o how_o happy_a be_o i_o that_o my_o hope_n bind_v at_o the_o thing_n here_o below_o 20._o nothing_o but_o the_o hope_n of_o heaven_n be_v sufficient_a to_o bribe_v i_o to_o undergo_v the_o trouble_n on_o earth_n 21._o a_o man_n have_v better_a not_o be_v than_o not_o be_v a_o christian_n 22._o there_o be_v no_o man_n on_o earth_n share_v so_o small_a a_o portion_n of_o god_n blessing_n or_o be_v so_o unacquainted_a with_o his_o power_n but_o if_o he_o look_v into_o the_o particular_n of_o his_o preservation_n and_o will_v but_o consult_v god_n deal_n with_o he_o in_o his_o necessity_n how_o some_o time_n he_o be_v please_v to_o supply_v he_o even_o beyond_o his_o expectation_n and_o at_o other_o time_n miraculous_o frame_v his_o contentment_n to_o his_o condition_n but_o aught_o to_o fly_v from_o despair_n as_o that_o most_o niggardly_a sin_n which_o by_o confine_v his_o power_n contract_v his_o indignation_n and_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o alter_v his_o decree_n be_v enough_o to_o close_v that_o liberal_a hand_n which_o be_v intend_v to_o be_v open_a before_o 23._o it_o be_v not_o the_o faint_a but_o the_o faithful_a it_o be_v not_o the_o suspicious_a but_o the_o circumspect_a christistian_n that_o gain_v his_o assurance_n and_o evidence_n for_o heaven_n 24._o as_o the_o way_n to_o die_v well_o be_v to_o live_v well_o so_o the_o way_n to_o live_v well_o be_v to_o conceit_n we_o be_v always_o die_v whilst_o we_o be_v live_v 25._o be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o hope_n of_o future_a

many_o mercy_n the_o godly_a enjoy_v as_o the_o sweet_a earnest_n or_o return_n of_o their_o prayer_n with_o a_o satisfaction_n which_o the_o other_o be_v never_o capable_a of_o 30._o experience_n
