any_o thing_n so_o we_o fear_v the_o contrary_a let_v we_o but_o mortify_v our_o love_n to_o the_o creature_n and_o we_o shall_v mortify_v the_o fear_n of_o the_o creature_n 2._o let_v we_o get_v and_o keep_v our_o interest_n in_o god_n and_o that_o will_v keep_v we_o from_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o creature_n 3._o let_v we_o labour_n to_o see_v clear_o that_o the_o cause_n we_o be_v in_o be_v god_n cause_n 4._o look_v to_o the_o call_v of_o that_o cause_n though_o the_o cause_n be_v good_a if_o we_o have_v not_o as_o all_o to_o that_o cause_n we_o can_v be_v help_v against_o fear_n 5._o labour_n to_o bring_v your_o heart_n to_o count_v it_o honour_n and_o riches_n and_o pleasure_n enough_o to_o be_v employ_v in_o god_n service_n any_o way_n whatsoever_o come_v of_o it_o if_o i_o shall_v endure_v such_o and_o such_o trouble_n in_o it_o yet_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v do_v god_n call_v for_o my_o estate_n and_o liberty_n and_o comfort_n to_o be_v employ_v this_o way_n and_o that_o be_v enough_o that_o any_o thing_n i_o have_v may_v be_v employ_v in_o god_n way_n and_o if_o it_o be_v lose_v in_o god_n service_n it_o be_v well_o lose_v if_o the_o heart_n be_v bring_v to_o this_o disposition_n it_o will_v not_o fear_v the_o loss_n of_o any_o thing_n 6._o keep_v the_o conscience_n upright_o in_o god_n way_n job_n 11.14.15_o if_o iniquity_n be_v in_o thy_o hand_n put_v it_o far_o from_o thou_o and_o let_v not_o wickedness_n dwell_v in_o thy_o tabernacle_n for_o then_o shall_v thou_o lift_v up_o thy_o face_n without_o spot_n yea_o thou_o shall_v be_v steadfast_a and_o not_o fear_v when_o the_o heart_n begin_v to_o decline_v in_o the_o least_o degree_n than_o it_o be_v fill_v with_o fear_n 7._o keep_v a_o close_a and_o full_a and_o comfortable_a communion_n one_o with_o another_o let_v there_o be_v no_o fear_n with_o one_o another_o as_o that_o be_v a_o notable_a place_n 1_o cor._n 16.10_o concern_v the_o care_n of_o saint_n paul_n over_o timothy_n because_o he_o be_v young_a and_o so_o weak_a that_o he_o may_v be_v with_o the_o church_n without_o fear_n as_o a_o mean_n to_o help_v timothy_n in_o his_o way_n against_o whatsoever_o trouble_v he_o meet_v abroad_o so_o whatsoever_o danger_n there_o be_v abroad_o in_o the_o world_n you_o will_v find_v this_o a_o notable_a mean_n to_o strengthen_v your_o heart_n to_o be_v without_o fear_n of_o all_o the_o world_n to_o keep_v close_o one_o with_o another_o 8._o if_o you_o will_v needs_o fear_v fear_v prosperity_n rather_o than_o trouble_v and_o indeed_o there_o be_v more_o cause_n to_o fear_v our_o ease_n and_o our_o prosperity_n then_o to_o fear_v any_o trouble_n in_o the_o world_n there_o be_v more_o cause_n to_o fear_v the_o favour_n of_o man_n than_o their_o threaten_n there_o be_v more_o cause_n to_o fear_v the_o world_n when_o it_o come_v like_o a_o fox_n then_o when_o it_o come_v like_o a_o lion_n the_o joy_n of_o this_o present_a world_n be_v to_o be_v fear_v by_o a_o christian_a now_o christian_n fear_v altogether_o present_a adversity_n but_o you_o shall_v labour_v to_o fear_v prosperity_n 9_o last_o consider_v how_o little_a good_a fear_v of_o any_o creature_n will_v do_v it_o will_v never_o a_o whit_n free_v you_o from_o the_o evil_a you_o fear_v but_o rather_o bring_v it_o soon_o as_o when_o peter_n be_v afraid_a of_o the_o wave_n and_o afraid_a of_o sink_v do_v it_o help_v he_o no_o it_o rather_o bring_v the_o wave_n upon_o he_o and_o so_o in_o trouble_n your_o fear_n can_v help_v you_o and_o deliver_v you_o but_o bring_v trouble_v soon_o upon_o you_o and_o therefore_o that_o be_v a_o observable_a note_n the_o difference_n between_o john_n and_o the_o other_o disciple_n when_o christ_n be_v apprehend_v all_o the_o disciple_n flee_v except_o john_n and_o john_n stand_v when_o he_o be_v in_o the_o priest_n hall_n and_o when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o cross_n he_o say_v to_o he_o behold_v thy_o mother_n so_o that_o he_o be_v not_o afraid_a of_o his_o life_n now_o their_o be_v not_o one_o of_o all_o the_o disciple_n that_o flee_v for_o there_o live_v but_o die_v violent_a death_n and_o their_o life_n be_v take_v away_o and_o john_n that_o do_v not_o flee_v live_v fourscore_o year_n after_o christ_n and_o continue_v in_o his_o ministry_n so_o that_o you_o see_v god_n many_o time_n will_v preserve_v such_o as_o be_v least_o afraid_a and_o let_v such_o as_o be_v afraid_a fall_n into_o the_o trouble_n that_o they_o be_v afraid_a of_o at_o that_o time_n they_o be_v afraid_a or_o afterward_o and_o thus_o we_o have_v finish_v the_o second_o doctrinal_a conclusion_n from_o these_o word_n that_o faith_n cure_v sinful_a fear_n chap._n 14_o another_o doctrine_n much_o difference_n between_o god_n people_n spirit_n at_o several_a time_n illustrate_v by_o example_n reason_n 1._o from_o the_o different_a disposition_n their_o heart_n be_v in_o to_o receive_v truth_n which_o proceed_v from_o three_o cause_n first_o the_o abatement_n of_o the_o strength_n that_o be_v opposite_a to_o that_o truth_n second_o the_o stir_n or_o activity_n of_o those_o habit_n which_o be_v suitable_a to_o truth_n three_o the_o prevalence_n of_o self-interest_n reas_n 2._o from_o the_o different_a representation_n of_o truth_n reas_n 3._o because_o the_o grace_n of_o man_n do_v not_o burn_v so_o clear_o and_o pure_o at_o all_o time_n reas_n 4._o from_o the_o weakness_n of_o grace_n the_o part_n and_o member_n of_o it_o be_v not_o consolidate_v reas_n 5._o because_o our_o heart_n be_v sometime_o fill_v with_o more_o heavenly_a consolation_n then_o at_o other_o time_n reas_n 6._o from_o the_o different_a breathe_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n reas_n 7._o because_o man_n have_v sometime_o a_o more_o clear_a and_o distinct_a sight_n of_o their_o call_n to_o suffer_v then_o at_o other_o time_n 3._o particular_a direction_n in_o this_o case_n reas_n 8._o the_o different_a temper_n of_o man_n body_n reas_n 9_o from_o the_o difference_n in_o the_o encourage_n occurrency_n of_o god_n providence_n we_o come_v now_o to_o the_o next_o doctrinal_a conclusion_n which_o be_v raise_v from_o hence_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o moses_n be_v afraid_a he_o do_v forsake_v egypt_n out_o of_o fear_n now_o moses_n by_o faith_n do_v forsake_v egypt_n and_o be_v not_o afraid_a the_o point_n be_v doct._n there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o difference_n between_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n people_n at_o some_o time_n from_o that_o they_o be_v at_o other_o time_n now_o moses_n seem_v to_o have_v further_a courage_n and_o strength_n then_o former_o we_o have_v many_o example_n in_o scripture_n and_o daily_a experience_n of_o this_o that_o there_o be_v a_o wonderful_a difference_n between_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n people_n at_o sometime_o and_o at_o other_o time_n as_o elijah_n be_v a_o man_n of_o mighty_a courage_n that_o can_v look_v ahab_n on_o the_o face_n and_o when_o ahab_n say_v be_v thou_o he_o that_o trouble_v israel_n nay_o say_v he_o it_o be_v thou_o and_o thy_o father_n house_n at_o another_o time_n he_o flee_v from_o jezebel_n and_o god_n say_v to_o he_o what_o do_v thou_o here_o elijah_n be_v thou_o flee_v from_o a_o woman_n that_o but_o the_o other_o day_n have_v such_o a_o courage_n and_o so_o david_n there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o david_n be_v afraid_a and_o behave_v himself_o with_o much_o folly_n in_o his_o fear_n as_o in_o the_o change_n of_o his_o behaviour_n before_o the_o king_n of_o gath_n at_o another_o time_n as_o in_o psalm_n 23._o he_o will_v not_o fear_v what_o man_n can_v do_v unto_o he_o though_o he_o walk_v in_o the_o valley_n of_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n and_o so_o in_o many_o psalm_n you_o have_v his_o heart_n mighty_o deject_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o psalm_n and_o before_o he_o have_v do_v mighty_o raise_v and_o so_o abraham_n sometime_o he_o have_v mighty_a strength_n and_o confidence_n of_o his_o faith_n at_o other_o time_n his_o faith_n fail_v he_o and_o he_o be_v fain_o to_o equivocate_v and_o shift_v for_o himself_o and_o so_o jeremiah_n god_n say_v he_o will_v make_v he_o as_o a_o brazen_a wall_n and_o he_o will_v give_v he_o a_o spirit_n of_o courage_n at_o another_o time_n jeremiah_n be_v mighty_o deject_v because_o of_o the_o reproach_n he_o meet_v withal_o and_o he_o will_v speak_v no_o more_o in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n unto_o the_o people_n and_o so_o peter_n there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o he_o be_v afraid_a of_o a_o poor_a damsel_n at_o other_o time_n who_o so_o bold_a as_o peter_n as_o in_o act_n 2.14_o and_o so_o joseph_n of_o arimathea_n he_o be_v a_o disciple_n of_o christ_n but_o secret_o for_o fear_v of_o the_o jew_n but_o afterward_o he_o come_v bold_o and_o beg_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n at_o
they_o under_o the_o bondage_n of_o the_o law_n and_o under_o the_o rigour_n and_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o keep_v all_o that_o be_v under_o he_o from_o that_o precious_a liberty_n that_o christ_n have_v purchase_v by_o his_o blood_n to_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o law_n and_o this_o be_v a_o great_a burden_n than_o the_o other_o this_o be_v a_o damnable_a bondage_n that_o do_v endanger_v eternal_a destruction_n the_o other_o be_v not_o so_o dangerous_a 8._o he_o take_v away_o all_o christian_a liberty_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o use_n of_o the_o creature_n restrain_v the_o use_n of_o the_o creature_n and_o time_n and_o place_n 9_o the_o nine_o be_v the_o bondage_n of_o human_a ceremony_n we_o know_v that_o be_v a_o heavy_a bondage_n the_o bondage_n of_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n be_v great_a and_o the_o apostle_n say_v act_n 15.10_o it_o be_v a_o yoke_n that_o neither_o they_o nor_o their_o father_n can_v bear_v but_o the_o yoke_n of_o the_o papist_n be_v a_o great_a deal_n heavy_a if_o we_o be_v to_o choose_v to_o to_o be_v under_o all_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n which_o the_o jew_n be_v under_o which_o the_o apostle_n say_v be_v a_o yoke_n that_o we_o nor_o our_o father_n be_v able_a to_o bear_v or_o to_o be_v under_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o papist_n if_o we_o do_v choose_v according_a to_o wisdom_n we_o shall_v rather_o choose_v to_o be_v under_o all_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o jew_n yet_o if_o we_o read_v the_o 4._o of_o gal._n we_o shall_v see_v it_o be_v a_o great_a privilege_n to_o be_v deliver_v from_o they_o and_o if_o we_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o any_o to_o appoint_v religious_a ceremony_n in_o the_o church_n we_o have_v no_o benefit_n by_o the_o purchase_n of_o christ_n to_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n for_o it_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n better_o and_o easy_a to_o be_v under_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n then_o to_o have_v any_o man_n appoint_v ceremony_n in_o several_a respect_n 1._o because_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n be_v by_o divine_a institution_n but_o when_o man_n appoint_v ceremony_n they_o be_v but_o human_a and_o any_o man_n have_v rather_o yield_v and_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o god_n appoint_v ceremony_n then_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o man_n you_o have_v rather_o be_v under_o prince_n then_o under_o mean_a officer_n so_o you_o have_v better_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o god_n then_o under_o the_o power_n of_o man_n yet_o in_o the_o 2._o col._n they_o be_v call_v beggarly_a rudiment_n 2._o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o doubt_n and_o scruple_n about_o the_o ceremony_n of_o man_n suppose_v that_o upon_o some_o distinction_n we_o may_v yield_v to_o human_a ceremony_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o without_o doubt_n and_o scruple_n but_o under_o the_o law_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n nor_o scruple_n and_o we_o have_v better_o be_v under_o a_o hundred_o where_o there_o be_v no_o scruple_n then_o under_o one_o where_o there_o be_v doubt_n and_o scruple_n 3._o again_o those_o ceremony_n be_v typical_a and_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n may_v be_v with_o they_o and_o a_o spiritual_a efficacy_n may_v be_v expect_v but_o as_o for_o the_o ceremony_n of_o man_n there_o can_v be_v no_o such_o thing_n expect_v with_o they_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o the_o jew_n under_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n be_v in_o a_o better_a condition_n than_o the_o christian_n shall_v be_v in_o now_o if_o they_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o any_o to_o appoint_v ceremony_n and_o therefore_o to_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o those_o that_o do_v appoint_v ceremony_n that_o be_v a_o miserable_a bondage_n 10._o again_o another_o bondage_n that_o they_o be_v in_o be_v that_o they_o be_v urge_v to_o the_o way_n of_o idolatry_n and_o sin_n by_o violence_n without_o regard_v the_o weakness_n of_o any_o or_o seek_v to_o inform_v any_o not_o regard_v that_o place_n ezek._n 34.4_o when_o god_n complain_v they_o do_v rule_v his_o people_n with_o cruelty_n and_o if_o any_o be_v weak_a and_o desire_n to_o be_v inform_v they_o jeer_v at_o they_o and_o say_v a_o prison_n or_o a_o fire_n or_o a_o faggot_n shall_v inform_v they_o these_o and_o many_o other_o thing_n may_v be_v name_v to_o show_v the_o most_o abominable_a and_o vild_a bondage_n that_o those_o be_v in_o that_o be_v under_o antichrist_n but_o put_v both_o together_o the_o outward_a and_o the_o inward_a bondage_n to_o be_v under_o those_o that_o be_v of_o such_o base_a and_o vile_a spirit_n this_o be_v mighty_o against_o the_o spirit_n of_o a_o ingenious_a man_n and_o for_o a_o church_n of_o god_n a_o thousand_o congregation_n to_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o a_o base_a filthy_a abominable_a whoremaster_n that_o be_v know_v to_o be_v so_o to_o be_v trouble_v by_o he_o when_o he_o please_v what_o a_o most_o horrible_a bondage_n be_v this_o and_o so_o for_o any_o congregation_n to_o be_v in_o which_o there_o may_v be_v thousand_o of_o soul_n to_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o a_o tapster_n or_o hostler_n or_o any_o base_a fellow_n this_o be_v a_o mighty_a bondage_n as_o now_o suppose_v a_o rich_a man_n die_v and_o he_o have_v a_o kinsman_n though_o never_o so_o vile_a and_o base_a than_o his_o land_n come_v to_o he_o he_o have_v the_o advowzen_n of_o the_o place_n then_o may_v be_v he_o send_v two_o or_o three_o hundred_o mile_n for_o a_o priest_n may_v be_v one_o like_o himself_o and_o though_o he_o be_v never_o such_o a_o blasphe_n man_n and_o base_a fellow_n and_o swearer_n than_o they_o not_o know_v of_o he_o and_o so_o have_v nothing_o to_o say_v against_o he_o they_o can_v keep_v he_o from_o the_o place_n now_o that_o one_o though_o never_o so_o wild_a shall_v have_v such_o power_n to_o appoint_v who_o he_o will_v any_o drunkard_n where_o master_n priest_n over_o such_o a_o congregation_n and_o they_o must_v depend_v upon_o he_o to_o have_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n administer_v by_o he_o this_o be_v a_o sore_a bondage_n bondslave_n be_v feed_v mere_o with_o chaff_n and_o brunn_n so_o with_o what_o chaff_n and_o husk_n be_v those_o feed_v withal_o that_o be_v under_o antichrist_n many_o people_n be_v loath_a to_o submit_v to_o the_o true_a government_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o true_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n if_o they_o tell_v they_o of_o any_o sin_n they_o be_v guilty_a of_o their_o heart_n belch_v and_o swell_v and_o they_o will_v not_o yield_v yet_o they_o will_v submit_v to_o the_o officer_n of_o antichrst_n and_o they_o will_v rule_v over_o they_o and_o do_v with_o they_o what_o they_o will_n as_o saint_n paul_n say_v in_o 2_o cor._n 11.20_o for_o you_o suffer_v if_o a_o man_n bring_v you_o into_o bondage_n if_o a_o man_n devour_v you_o if_o a_o man_n take_v of_o you_o if_o a_o man_n exalt_v himself_o if_o a_o man_n smite_v you_o on_o the_o face_n other_o false_a teacher_n you_o can_v suffer_v but_o the_o true_a apostle_n you_o can_v suffer_v they_o if_o one_o come_v in_o his_o own_o name_n you_o receive_v they_o i_o come_v in_o my_o father_n name_n and_o you_o reject_v i_o say_v christ_n john_n 5.43_o and_o so_o many_o complain_v of_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n they_o take_v so_o much_o upon_o they_o &_o they_o will_v not_o yield_v to_o that_o they_o say_v but_o if_o you_o live_v under_o popery_n you_o must_v live_v under_o every_o base_a priest_n and_o what_o he_o say_v you_o must_v believe_v as_o your_o faith_n &_o venture_v your_o soul_n upon_o it_o without_o examine_v of_o it_o and_o you_o must_v not_o manifest_v any_o rejection_n so_o that_o be_v apparent_a man_n will_v yield_v to_o any_o thing_n rather_o than_o to_o god_n rather_o count_v the_o subjection_n to_o god_n bondage_n then_o count_v the_o subjection_n to_o antichrist_n bondage_n rather_o be_v servant_n to_o antichr_v than_o servant_n to_o god_n i_o speak_v this_o the_o rather_o to_o see_v what_o cause_n we_o have_v to_o bless_v god_n for_o our_o deliverance_n from_o this_o and_o that_o we_o may_v learn_v to_o know_v how_o to_o use_v our_o liberty_n this_o bondage_n be_v worse_a than_o the_o bondage_n of_o egypt_n 1._o because_o it_o be_v soul_n bondage_n and_o that_o be_v but_o upon_o the_o body_n we_o do_v not_o read_v that_o pharaoh_n or_o the_o egyptian_n do_v force_v they_o to_o idolatry_n 2._o it_o be_v not_o so_o great_a bodily_a bondage_n they_o do_v not_o destroy_v they_o they_o lay_v heavy_a burden_n upon_o they_o but_o do_v not_o put_v they_o to_o death_n as_o antichrist_n do_v if_o they_o will_v not_o
