seem_v pleasure_n in_o the_o commit_n of_o sin_n it_o be_v a_o notable_a instance_n that_o you_o read_v of_o in_o eccles_n 7._o 25._o 26._o i_o apply_v my_o heart_n to_o know_v and_o to_o search_v and_o to_o seek_v out_o wisdom_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o thing_n and_o to_o know_v the_o wickedness_n of_o 26_o folly_n even_o of_o foolishness_n and_o madness_n and_o i_o find_v more_o bitter_a than_o death_n the_o woman_n who_o heart_n be_v snare_n and_o net_n and_o her_o hand_n as_o band_n whoso_o please_v god_n or_o who_o so_o be_v good_a before_o god_n shall_v espape_v from_o she_o but_o the_o sinner_n shall_v be_v take_v by_o she_o here_o solomon_n apply_v his_o heart_n to_o find_v out_o the_o deceit_n of_o sin_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v i_o have_v study_v to_o know_v the_o

and_o cast_v he_o down_o under_o the_o sense_n of_o that_o sin_n than_o he_o can_v say_v that_o i_o find_v a_o thing_n more_o bitter_a than_o death_n a_o harlot_n who_o heart_n be_v snare_n and_o

do_v bring_v they_o to_o see_v and_o to_o make_v they_o to_o confess_v with_o solomon_n that_o sin_n be_v more_o bitter_a than_o death_n and_o to_o confess_v that_o there_o be_v more_o evil_a in_o the_o least_o sin_n then_o there_o can_v be_v seem_a pleasure_n and_o profit_n and_o contentment_n in_o the_o commission_n of_o it_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n have_v never_o taste_v of_o the_o bitterness_n of_o sin_n until_o that_o god_n do_v lay_v they_o low_o and_o cast_v they_o down_o under_o the_o weight_n and_o sense_n of_o sin_n and_o by_o this_o mean_v he_o make_v they_o to_o see_v how_o bitter_a a_o thing_n sin_n be_v seven_o god_n do_v this_o to_o make_v wicked_a man_n afraid_a to_o commit_v sin_n and_o this_o be_v do_v in_o mercy_n to_o they_o do_v they_o but_o consider_v of_o it_o may_v not_o wicked_a man_n reason_n thus_o to_o themselves_o why_o if_o god_n do_v use_v his_o own_o people_n so_o for_o sin_n what_o may_v i_o expect_v at_o god_n hand_n if_o god_n do_v cast_v down_o his_o own_o people_n under_o the_o sense_n and_o under_o the_o sight_n of_o sin_n what_o may_v i_o expect_v from_o his_o hand_n who_o do_v so_o delight_v in_o sin_n which_o his_o own_o people_n suffer_v so_o for_o sure_o if_o god_n cast_v down_o his_o own_o people_n under_o the_o sight_n and_o under_o the_o apprehension_n of_o sin_n then_o sure_o i_o may_v expect_v to_o be_v cast_v off_o for_o sin_n if_o they_o be_v cast_v down_o to_o the_o ground_n for_o sin_n i_o shall_v be_v cast_v into_o hell_n for_o sin_n do_v he_o cast_v they_o down_o in_o the_o apprehension_n of_o hell_n sure_o he_o may_v cast_v i_o down_o to_o the_o possession_n of_o hell_n and_o have_v not_o i_o cause_n to_o be_v cast_v down_o for_o sin_n that_o shall_v be_v cast_v off_o for_o sin_n if_o his_o own_o people_n do_v shed_v tear_n for_o sin_n then_o sure_o i_o shall_v shed_v blood_n for_o sin_n and_o if_o they_o be_v cast_v down_o for_o sin_n that_o shall_v never_o be_v whole_o reject_v shall_v not_o i_o be_v cast_v down_o for_o sin_n who_o sin_n shall_v make_v i_o be_v reject_v so_o that_o i_o say_v god_n in_o his_o cast_n down_o his_o own_o people_n he_o do_v it_o out_o of_o

five_o question_n why_o the_o people_n of_o god_n those_o who_o shall_v never_o be_v cast_v off_o may_v yet_o be_v cast_v down_o under_o the_o sight_n and_o sense_n of_o sin_n question_n 6_o the_o six_o and_o last_o question_n i_o be_o to_o handle_v be_v this_o what_o theological_a rule_n may_v be_v lay_v down_o to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v too_o much_o cast_v down_o for_o sin_n under_o the_o sight_n and_o sense_n and_o burden_n of_o it_o nor_o be_v too_o much_o deject_v under_o it_o now_o in_o answer_n to_o this_o query_n consider_v these_o particular_n rule_n 1_o first_o rule_n be_v this_o do_v not_o expect_v so_o much_o sorrow_n and_o cast_v down_o for_o sin_n as_o some_o other_o man_n have_v have_v and_o the_o reason_n why_o i_o give_v you_o this_o rule_n be_v this_o because_o that_o some_o of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n will_v thus_o reason_n i_o must_v be_v thus_o and_o thus_o cast_v down_o for_o sin_n and_o i_o must_v have_v such_o a_o degree_n and_o such_o a_o measure_n of_o humiliation_n because_o i_o see_v other_o man_n have_v so_o and_o i_o must_v have_v such_o a_o sight_n of_o sin_n and_o lie_v so_o low_a for_o sin_n because_o other_o man_n do_v so_o and_o what_o shall_v not_o i_o do_v so_o shall_v not_o i_o lie_v so_o low_a shall_v not_o i_o be_v so_o humble_v for_o sin_n as_o i_o see_v other_o be_v i_o have_v as_o many_o sin_n as_o they_o and_o i_o have_v as_o great_a sin_n as_o they_o and_o my_o sin_n be_v accompany_v with_o as_o heinous_a circumstance_n as_o they_o be_v and_o therefore_o why_o shall_v not_o i_o be_v humble_v as_o they_o be_v now_o consider_v what_o and_o if_o other_o have_v be_v cast_v down_o more_o than_o thou_o have_v be_v what_o be_v this_o to_o thy_o humiliation_n for_o sin_n for_o other_o man_n degree_n and_o other_o man_n manner_n and_o measure_n of_o humiliation_n be_v not_o to_o be_v a_o rule_n for_o thou_o to_o humble_v thyself_o by_o for_o it_o may_v be_v other_o that_o have_v have_v such_o a_o degree_n of_o humiliation_n and_o cast_v down_o for_o sin_n they_o have_v be_v more_o notorious_a in_o sin_n and_o they_o it_o may_v be_v have_v more_o rugged_a nature_n and_o be_v of_o a_o more_o stubborn_a temper_n than_o thou_o be_v of_o it_o may_v be_v thy_o temper_n be_v more_o flexible_a and_o more_o pliable_a and_o more_o yield_v and_o more_o easy_o wrought_v upon_o than_o other_o have_v be_v therefore_o there_o be_v not_o require_v such_o a_o degree_n and_o measure_n of_o humiliation_n as_o they_o require_v it_o may_v be_v thou_o cause_v not_o bear_v that_o which_o other_o can_n that_o ballaste_n will_v but_o serve_v a_o ship_n will_v overload_v a_o little_a boat_n therefore_o do_v not_o reason_n thus_o with_o thyself_o to_o compare_v thy_o cast_n down_o for_o sin_n with_o other_o lest_o thou_o do_v cast_v thyself_o too_o low_o for_o sin_n other_o man_n it_o may_v be_v do_v contract_v more_o sin_n than_o thou_o do_v and_o it_o may_v be_v thou_o have_v not_o so_o stifle_v thy_o conscience_n as_o they_o have_v do_v and_o it_o may_v be_v thou_o have_v not_o commit_v those_o sin_n that_o they_o have_v commit_v and_o it_o may_v be_v thou_o have_v not_o lay_v waste_v thy_o conscience_n as_o they_o have_v do_v and_o thou_o it_o may_v be_v have_v not_o be_v so_o ill_a a_o liver_n as_o they_o have_v be_v therefore_o thou_o do_v not_o need_v so_o great_a a_o measure_n of_o humiliation_n for_o sin_n as_o they_o have_v have_v need_n of_o you_o have_v a_o expression_n therefore_o 1_o pet._n 1._o 6._o if_o need_v be_v you_o be_v in_o heavineinss_n through_o manifold_a 6._o temptation_n god_n in_o his_o wisdom_n see_v some_o man_n that_o they_o stand_v in_o need_n yea_o in_o more_o need_n of_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o affliction_n &_o cast_v down_o for_o sin_n than_o other_o have_v need_n of_o it_o may_v be_v some_o man_n have_v more_o spiritual_a pride_n of_o part_n and_o gift_n and_o grace_n and_o more_o guilt_n lie_v upon_o they_o than_o thou_o have_v rule_n 2_o the_o second_o rule_n be_v this_o by_o way_n of_o direction_n rest_v satisfy_v in_o thy_o conscience_n though_o thou_o may_v not_o find_v the_o measure_n of_o thy_o humiliation_n yet_o if_o thou_o find_v the_o end_n of_o thy_o humiliation_n rest_v satisfy_v in_o that_o if_o in_o thy_o humiliation_n thou_o do_v desire_v to_o be_v true_o humble_v for_o sin_n and_o if_o thou_o do_v desire_v to_o lay_v thyself_o low_a in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n if_o thou_o do_v desire_v to_o abhor_v thyself_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o sinfulness_n of_o thy_o nature_n and_o life_n and_o if_o
down_o his_o life_n for_o i_o voluntary_o and_o meritorious_o and_o lay_v himself_o down_o very_o low_a to_o be_v my_o saviour_n therefore_o why_o o_o my_o soul_n shall_v thou_o be_v cast_v down_o excessive_o for_o sin_n it_o be_v true_a o_o my_o soul_n if_o thou_o have_v be_v to_o die_v and_o to_o have_v purchase_v thy_o own_o redemption_n to_o have_v be_v thy_o own_o saviour_n and_o if_o the_o weight_n and_o the_o extreme_a burden_n of_o thy_o sin_n have_v be_v to_o be_v lay_v upon_o thy_o own_o shoulder_n and_o if_o thou_o have_v be_v to_o have_v make_v perfect_a satisfaction_n to_o divine_a justice_n in_o thy_o own_o person_n if_o thou_o have_v be_v oblige_v to_o have_v keep_v the_o whole_a law_n perfect_o and_o if_o thou_o have_v be_v for_o to_o make_v a_o full_a recompense_n for_o the_o wrong_n and_o evil_n that_o thou_o have_v do_v and_o thou_o be_v to_o offer_v the_o fruit_n of_o thy_o body_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o thy_o soul_n yet_o this_o will_v not_o do_v nor_o procure_v the_o least_o satisfaction_n nor_o make_v the_o least_o compensation_n and_o recompense_n for_o the_o evil_n thou_o have_v do_v now_o if_o this_o be_v thy_o case_n to_o be_v thy_o own_o mediator_n and_o thy_o own_o intercessor_n and_o to_o have_v thy_o blood_n spill_v for_o thy_o sin_n if_o this_o be_v thy_o case_n thou_o have_v cause_v to_o be_v excessive_o cast_v down_o for_o sin_n a_o finite_a creature_n can_v never_o make_v satisfaction_n to_o infinite_a justice_n can_v i_o give_v a_o thousand_o ram_n ten_o thousand_o river_n of_o oil_n yet_o i_o can_v not_o make_v a_o

thy_o case_n which_o may_v abundant_o administer_v thou_o comfort_v the_o blood_n the_o precious_a blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v lay_v down_o for_o sin_n that_o thou_o may_v not_o excessive_o be_v cast_v down_o for_o sin_n and_o thou_o may_v draw_v abundance_n of_o comfort_n &_o satisfaction_n from_o this_o consideration_n first_o consider_v with_o thyself_o o_o my_o soul_n jesus_n christ_n do_v not_o shed_v his_o precious_a blood_n for_o himself_o but_o for_o i_o he_o do_v like_o a_o good_a shepherd_n lie_v down_o his_o life_n for_o his_o sheep_n joh._n 10._o 15._o second_o consider_v that_o god_n the_o father_n do_v accept_v of_o the_o lay_n down_o of_o his_o life_n in_o this_o behalf_n joh._n 10_o 17._o the_o father_n love_v he_o because_o he_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n three_o consider_v and_o reason_n with_o thyself_o o_o my_o soul_n what_o though_o there_o be_v great_a argument_n to_o greaten_v sin_n and_o to_o heighten_v sin_n so_o there_o be_v many_o great_a argument_n to_o greaten_v the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n be_v thy_o sin_n great_a the_o mercy_n of_o god_n be_v great_a do_v thy_o sin_n deserve_v great_a punishment_n even_o eternal_a death_n the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n be_v of_o infinite_a value_n to_o merit_v life_n even_o eternal_a life_n be_v thy_o sin_n the_o sin_n of_o a_o man_n i_o but_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o satisfaction_n of_o a_o god_n do_v thy_o sin_n merit_v the_o frown_n of_o god_n o_o but_o christ_n death_n do_v merit_n and_o purchase_v the_o favour_n of_o god_n in_o a_o word_n as_o christ_n person_n do_v excel_v thy_o person_n so_o do_v his_o obedience_n infinite_o exceed_v thy_o disobedience_n therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n paul_n rom._n 5._o 16._o etc._n etc._n but_o the_o free_a gift_n be_v of_o many_o offence_n unto_o justification_n here_o the_o apostle_n intimate_v that_o though_o there_o be_v great_a guilt_n in_o sin_n yet_o there_o be_v great_a mercy_n and_o merit_n in_o christ_n for_o as_o by_o adam_n there_o come_v sin_n and_o death_n so_o by_o jesus_n christ_n there_o come_v righteousness_n and_o life_n for_o as_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n so_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n be_v eternal_a life_n through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n rom._n 6._o 23._o there_o be_v not_o so_o much_o guilt_n in_o

thou_o be_v cast_v down_o o_o my_o soul_n jesus_n christ_n have_v lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o i_o and_o in_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n he_o have_v make_v full_a satisfaction_n for_o sin_n unto_o

therefore_o be_v not_o thou_o excessive_o cast_v down_o for_o sin_n three_o reason_n thus_o with_o thy_o own_o soul_n that_o thou_o may_v not_o be_v too_o excessive_o cast_v down_o for_o sin_n o_o
