sin_n to_o come_v be_v a_o care_n to_o prevent_v it_o saint_n john_n make_v this_o mark_n of_o god_n child_n where_o he_o say_v he_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n sin_v not_o 5.18_o 1._o joh._n 5.18_o bât_o keep_v himself_o that_o the_o wicked_a one_o touch_v he_o not_o and_o this_o care_n extend_v itself_o not_o only_o to_o the_o well_o dispose_v of_o the_o outward_a action_n but_o also_o to_o the_o good_a rule_n of_o the_o very_a thought_n of_o the_o heart_n for_o where_o the_o word_n of_o god_n work_v there_o 10.5_o 2._o cor._n 10.5_o every_o thought_n be_v bring_v into_o captivity_n to_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n and_o there_o the_o apostle_n direction_n be_v follow_v 4.8_o phil._n 4.8_o whatsoever_o thing_n be_v true_a whatsoever_o thing_n be_v honest_a etc._n etc._n think_v on_o the_o e_z thing_n 2._o the_o token_n which_o concern_v god_n mercy_n be_v chief_o two_o 1._o when_o a_o man_n feel_v himself_o distress_v with_o the_o burden_n of_o his_o sin_n or_o when_o he_o apprehende_v the_o heavy_a displeasure_n of_o god_n in_o his_o soul_n for_o they_o and_o further_o feel_v the_o need_n he_o have_v of_o christ_n and_o therewith_o gasp_v for_o the_o recovery_n of_o god_n favour_n in_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o above_o all_o other_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n to_o all_o such_o be_v most_o cordial_a promise_n make_v which_o can_v have_v reference_n to_o none_o but_o to_o the_o elect_n as_o where_o christ_n say_v if_o any_o man_n thââst_n let_v he_o come_v to_o i_o and_o drink_n 7.37_o joh._n 7.37_o he_o that_o bell_n eve_v in_o i_o as_o say_v the_o scripture_n out_o of_o his_o âelly_n shall_v flow_v river_n of_o water_n of_o life_n as_o where_o the_o spirit_n say_v i_o will_v give_v to_o hâm_v whââ_n be_v a_o thirst_n of_o the_o well_o of_o the_o water_n of_o ââe_z free_o 21.6_o revel_v 21.6_o now_o if_o he_o that_o thirst_v drink_v of_o these_o water_n mark_v what_o follow_v whosoever_o drink_v of_o the_o wateâ_n that_o i_o shall_v give_v he_o 4.14_o joh._n 4.14_o shall_v never_o bâ_n more_o a_o thirst_n but_o the_o water_n that_o i_o shall_v gâue_v he_o shall_v be_v in_o time_n a_o well_o of_o water_n spring_v up_o unto_o everlasting_a life_n 2._o the_o second_o be_v a_o strange_a affection_n wrought_v in_o the_o heart_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n whereby_o a_o man_n do_v so_o rate_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n as_o all_o other_o thing_n under_o the_o roof_n of_o heaven_n be_v deem_v but_o as_o dung_n in_o comparison_n thereof_o this_o mind_n be_v paul_n in_o where_o he_o say_v i_o account_v all_o thing_n but_o dung_n to_o gain_v christ_n jesus_n 3.8_o phil_n 3.8_o and_o this_o affection_n the_o parable_n in_o the_o gospel_n point_v at_o 13.44_o math._n 13.44_o under_o the_o similitude_n of_o the_o conceal_a treasure_n &_o the_o peerless_a pearl_n for_o which_o the_o evangelicall_a merchant_n sell_v away_o his_o temporalle_n now_o every_o one_o saign_v himself_o to_o be_v of_o this_o affection_n and_o that_o he_o more_o esteem_v a_o drop_n of_o christ_n blood_n than_o all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n when_o as_o the_o event_n show_v the_o contrary_a that_o this_o be_v but_o the_o smooth_a voice_n of_o jacob_n they_o be_v spawn_v of_o the_o rough_a and_o hairy_a generation_n of_o esau_n more_o greedy_a of_o his_o brother_n jacobs_n red_a broth_n then_o of_o his_o father_n isacke_v blessing_n of_o the_o brood_n of_o the_o old_a jsraelite_n that_o more_o regard_v their_o rank_a and_o grosser_n diet_n their_o onion_n garlic_n leek_n and_o such_o pelf_n &_o the_o fleshpot_n of_o egypt_n then_o the_o riches_n of_o cânaan_n the_o land_n of_o promise_n gergesiâs_v all_o the_o sort_n of_o they_o more_o set_v by_o their_o swine_n then_o by_o their_o saviour_n now_o to_o unmask_v such_o a_o disguise_a hypocrite_n there_o be_v two_o proper_a mark_n to_o discern_v this_o affection_n from_o the_o false_a 1._o the_o first_o be_v his_o love_n to_o a_o christian_a in_o that_o regard_n only_o that_o he_o be_v a_o christian_n for_o he_o can_v not_o esteem_v of_o christ_n as_o he_o ought_v that_o do_v not_o in_o like_a sort_n esteem_v of_o christ_n member_n this_o be_v the_o observation_n give_v we_o by_o our_o saviour_n where_o he_o say_v he_o that_o receive_v a_o prophet_n in_o the_o name_n of_o a_o prophet_n shall_v receive_v a_o prophet_n reward_n 10.41_o math._n 10.41_o and_o he_o that_o receive_v a_o righteous_a man_n in_o the_o name_n of_o a_o righteous_a man_n shall_v receive_v the_o reward_n of_o a_o righteous_a man_n and_o it_o be_v the_o sign_n s_o john_n tell_v we_o of_o where_o he_o say_v hereby_o we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v translate_v from_o death_n to_o life_n 3.14_o 1._o joh._n 3.14_o because_o we_o love_v the_o brethren_n that_o be_v such_o as_o be_v member_n because_o they_o be_v so_o 2._o the_o second_o mark_n be_v their_o love_n to_o the_o second_o come_v of_o christ_n either_o particular_o by_o death_n or_o universal_o by_o the_o latter_a judgement_n to_o no_o other_o end_n but_o to_o have_v a_o full_a fruition_n of_o christ_n s._n paul_n make_v this_o a_o mark_n of_o our_o adoption_n where_o he_o say_v the_o crown_n of_o righteousness_n be_v lay_v up_o for_o all_o they_o that_o love_v the_o appear_v of_o christ_n 4.8_o 1._o tim._n 4.8_o the_o outward_a token_n of_o our_o adoption_n be_v our_o new_a obedience_n and_o conformity_n to_o god_n law_n in_o a_o holy_a conversation_n express_v by_o saint_n john_n where_o he_o say_v hereby_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o we_o know_v he_o if_o we_o keep_v his_o commandment_n now_o we_o mean_v not_o such_o exact_a &_o absolute_a obedience_n 23._o 1._o joh._n 23._o as_o the_o moral_a law_n in_o the_o rigour_n thereof_o look_v for_o at_o our_o hand_n for_o than_o it_o shall_v not_o betoken_v grace_n but_o be_v the_o mean_n of_o our_o damnation_n but_o such_o obedience_n as_o in_o the_o favourable_a acceptation_n of_o god_n measure_v a_o deed_n rather_o by_o the_o disposition_n of_o the_o doer_n then_o by_o the_o perfection_n of_o it_o go_v for_o currant_n pay_v yet_o that_o we_o may_v not_o pay_v he_o copper_n for_o good_a coin_n this_o obedience_n must_v be_v thus_o qualify_v first_o it_o must_v not_o come_v with_o pare_a knife_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o cut_v off_o and_o keep_v such_o commandment_n as_o they_o please_v and_o keep_v a_o part_n behind_o with_o aâamas_n and_o sâphiâa_n and_o divide_v his_o worship_n as_o the_o wrong_a mother_n that_o plead_v before_o salomoâ_n will_v have_v the_o child_n divide_v he_o will_v have_v our_o obedience_n to_o they_o all_o or_o else_o to_o none_o of_o they_o all_o herod_n can_v hear_v john_n baptist_n willing_o and_o do_v reform_v many_o thing_n by_o his_o mean_n and_o âudas_fw-la have_v many_o good_a part_n in_o he_o as_o hereby_o appear_v that_o he_o be_v content_a to_o leave_v all_o and_o to_o follow_v christ_n and_o preach_v the_o gospel_n of_o the_o kingdom_n in_o jury_n aswell_o as_o the_o rest_n yet_o all_o this_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n for_o that_o the_o one_o will_v not_o obey_v the_o seven_o commandment_n in_o leave_v his_o brother_n phiâips_n wife_n and_o the_o other_o will_v not_o leave_v his_o covetousness_n to_o die_v for_o it_o entire_a and_o true_a obedience_n do_v stretch_v out_o itself_o to_o all_o the_o commandment_n as_o david_n say_v i_o shall_v not_o be_v confound_v 119.6_o psal_n 119.6_o when_o i_o have_v respect_n to_o all_o thy_o commandment_n 2.10_o jam._n 2.10_o saint_n james_n condemn_v he_o as_o guilty_a of_o all_o that_o be_v guilty_a of_o one_o that_o be_v our_o obedience_n to_o many_o commandment_n be_v before_o god_n no_o obedience_n but_o a_o flat_a sin_n if_o witting_o and_o willing_o we_o leave_v any_o one_o undo_v he_o that_o do_v repent_v himself_o of_o one_o sin_n true_o do_v repent_v of_o all_o and_o he_o thaâ_n liveâ_n but_o in_o one_o know_v sin_n without_o repentance_n whatsoever_o he_o pretend_v indeed_o repentes_fw-la of_o no_o sin_n 2._o second_o this_o obedience_n must_v dilate_v itself_o to_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o our_o life_n after_o our_o conversion_n and_o repentance_n for_o we_o be_v not_o to_o judge_v of_o a_o man_n by_o one_o or_o two_o good_a deed_n but_o by_o the_o carriage_n of_o himself_o in_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o his_o life_n a_o man_n be_v as_o his_o life_n be_v they_o be_v not_o the_o slip_n and_o salles_fw-la that_o he_o have_v by_o weakness_n of_o nature_n that_o can_v prejudice_n his_o election_n so_o he_o renu_v his_o repentance_n for_o his_o new_a trespass_n &_o dwell_v not_o in_o sin_n in_o a_o senseless_a security_n 3._o three_o and_o last_o this_o obedience_n must_v be_v from_o the_o whole_a man_n as_o
