the_o church_n complain_v that_o while_o she_o sleep_v that_o be_v follow_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n she_o have_v lose_v her_o belove_a christ_n see_v what_o a_o charge_n she_o lay_v upon_o the_o daughter_n of_o jerusalem_n in_o the_o 8._o verse_n i_o charge_v you_o o_o daughter_n of_o jerusalem_n that_o if_o you_o find_v my_o well-beloved_a that_o you_o tell_v he_o that_o i_o be_o sick_a of_o love_n those_o that_o have_v not_o taste_v the_o sweet_a of_o christ_n love_n admire_v this_o strange_a manner_n of_o enquiry_n and_o demand_v in_o the_o 9_o verse_n what_o be_v thy_o beloved_a more_o than_o other_o that_o thou_o do_v so_o charge_v we_o why_o she_o tell_v they_o in_o the_o follow_a verse_n and_o set_v forth_o by_o all_o possible_a way_n of_o expression_n the_o beauty_n of_o our_o sweet_a saviour_n in_o so_o much_o that_o the_o faithful_a hear_n of_o the_o excellency_n of_o christ_n desire_v to_o know_v how_o to_o find_v he_o also_o as_o be_v sweet_o set_v forth_o in_o the_o last_o verse_n o_o thou_o fair_a among_o woman_n whither_o be_v thy_o well-beloved_a go_v whither_o be_v thy_o well-beloved_a turn_v aside_o that_o we_o may_v seek_v he_o with_o thou_o o_o let_v this_o be_v the_o desire_n of_o all_o the_o saint_n give_v i_o christ_n and_o take_v all_o the_o world_n beside_o let_v we_o then_o consider_v where_o this_o comfortable_a enjoyment_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v have_v it_o be_v in_o that_o garden_n the_o church_n which_o be_v speak_v of_o cant_v 5.1_o there_o be_v all_o those_o sweet_a fruit_n of_o christ_n gracious_a presence_n o_o then_o let_v we_o strive_v to_o set_v up_o christ_n ordinance_n and_o order_n according_a to_o his_o own_o institution_n and_o among_o all_o the_o other_o blessing_n that_o god_n have_v bestow_v upon_o we_o praise_v his_o holy_a name_n for_o those_o great_a hope_n of_o reformation_n wherewith_o he_o have_v at_o this_o time_n fill_v our_o heart_n nothing_o doubt_v but_o he_o that_o have_v begin_v will_v perfect_v it_o among_o his_o servant_n god_n have_v leave_v we_o a_o sufficient_a rule_n for_o the_o matter_n of_o his_o worship_n and_o service_n in_o his_o holy_a word_n if_o we_o will_v but_o lay_v aside_o all_o carnal_a policy_n and_o apply_v ourselves_o to_o that_o the_o business_n be_v end_v but_o we_o have_v a_o long_a time_n accustom_v ourselves_o to_o be_v guide_v by_o the_o ordinance_n of_o man_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n can_v hardly_o find_v a_o way_n out_o of_o it_o but_o rather_o fit_v ourselves_o with_o some_o bad_a argument_n to_o maintain_v our_o old_a practice_n not_o much_o unlike_o the_o papist_n that_o because_o their_o father_n do_v so_o they_o will_v believe_v it_o to_o be_v right_a though_o it_o may_v be_v it_o be_v more_o than_o their_o father_n do_v to_o believe_v it_o though_o their_o practice_n be_v so_o but_o we_o see_v by_o experience_n the_o conceit_n of_o a_o former_a receive_v opinion_n be_v a_o great_a bar_n to_o keep_v man_n from_o embrace_v the_o truth_n it_o behoove_v we_o therefore_o as_o in_o all_o thing_n so_o especial_o in_o that_o which_o more_o immediate_o belong_v to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n to_o look_v unto_o the_o rule_n thus_o it_o be_v still_o urge_v upon_o the_o israelite_n so_o in_o the_o gospel_n christ_n always_o direct_v we_o to_o the_o rule_n and_o indeed_o when_o we_o forsake_v that_o we_o be_v apt_a to_o fall_v upon_o any_o thing_n though_o never_o so_o dishonourable_a to_o god_n as_o we_o see_v exod._n 32.1_o the_o people_n will_v have_v aaron_n make_v they_o god_n so_o many_o among_o we_o will_v have_v some_o one_o or_o other_o make_v we_o such_o god_n we_o know_v what_o they_o be_v to_o make_v we_o a_o religion_n or_o a_o way_n of_o worship_n which_o work_n belong_v to_o god_n only_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o this_o and_o let_v our_o love_n to_o christ_n carry_v we_o through_o all_o difficulty_n that_o we_o meet_v with_o for_o if_o we_o consult_v with_o flesh_n and_o blood_n in_o god_n service_n we_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o be_v his_o neither_o can_v we_o have_v any_o assurance_n that_o we_o love_v he_o as_o we_o ought_v but_o we_o shall_v still_o find_v ourselves_o apt_a to_o leave_v the_o way_n of_o god_n as_o hard_a and_o troublesome_a and_o so_o take_v our_o leave_n of_o religion_n as_o orpha_n do_v of_o her_o mother_n in_o law_n and_o die_v in_o moab_n let_v not_o therefore_o a_o old_a receive_v opinion_n honour_n credit_n riches_n friend_n or_o any_o thing_n separate_v our_o affection_n from_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n but_o take_v up_o that_o resolution_n to_o follow_v he_o in_o all_o his_o ordinance_n as_o ruth_n do_v to_o follow_v naomi_n ruth_n 1.17_o where_o thou_o die_v will_n i_o die_v and_o there_o will_v i_o be_v bury_v the_o lord_n do_v so_o to_o i_o and_o more_o also_o if_o ought_v but_o death_n do_v part_v thou_o and_o i_o see_v what_o this_o good_a woman_n do_v for_o the_o love_n of_o one_o which_o she_o confess_v death_n may_v deprive_v she_o of_o how_o shall_v this_o very_a consideration_n knit_v and_o unite_v our_o love_n to_o our_o dear_a saviour_n death_n can_v separate_v we_o neither_o shall_v our_o love_n if_o it_o be_v true_a ever_o have_v end_n all_o than_o that_o have_v be_v former_o say_v be_v consider_v one_o will_v think_v it_o strange_a that_o all_o shall_v not_o love_v christ_n but_o indeed_o it_o be_v as_o strange_a that_o any_o shall_v love_v he_o if_o we_o consider_v our_o natural_a inclination_n to_o sin_n and_o to_o follow_v our_o sensuality_n oh_o how_o fain_o will_v a_o man_n have_v heaven_n and_o earth_n christ_n and_o the_o world_n part_n with_o nothing_o but_o will_v fain_o go_v to_o heaven_n at_o other_o man_n cost_n but_o our_o saviour_n teach_v we_o another_o lesson_n matth._n 18.45.46_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v like_a to_o a_o merchant_n man_n that_o seek_v good_a pearl_n who_o have_v find_v a_o pearl_n of_o great_a price_n go_v and_o sell_v that_o he_o have_v and_o buy_v it_o certain_o we_o must_v part_v with_o all_o for_o christ_n and_o this_o i_o be_o persuade_v be_v many_o time_n the_o desire_n and_o resolution_n of_o god_n child_n but_o the_o flesh_n so_o prevail_v by_o the_o help_n of_o our_o common_a adversary_n that_o we_o be_v strange_o carry_v away_o as_o i_o be_o able_a to_o witness_v from_o my_o own_o sad_a experience_n for_o upon_o such_o meditation_n as_o these_o former_o mention_v i_o have_v resolve_v sure_o i_o will_v follow_v christ_n nothing_o shall_v draw_v my_o heart_n from_o my_o saviour_n but_o such_o have_v be_v the_o frailty_n of_o nature_n that_o i_o have_v suffer_v such_o thought_n speedy_o to_o cold_a and_o die_v as_o if_o they_o have_v never_o be_v sometime_o the_o devil_n take_v advantage_n of_o necessity_n when_o he_o see_v we_o in_o some_o strait_n as_o 1_o sam._n 21.2_o and_o thereby_o weaken_v our_o faith_n and_o dependence_n in_o the_o all-sufficiency_n of_o our_o good_a god_n and_o so_o yield_v to_o that_o which_o be_v unlawful_a and_o unwarrantable_a as_o if_o when_o in_o all_o ordinary_a way_n we_o see_v no_o supply_n present_o conclude_v there_o be_v none_o it_o be_v that_o the_o devil_n tempt_v christ_n withal_o but_o how_o shall_v our_o saviour_n answer_n be_v a_o strength_n to_o our_o weak_a faith_n in_o such_o case_n matth._n 4.4_o man_n shall_v not_o

our_o own_o unwarrantable_a way_n again_o i_o find_v the_o example_n of_o other_o man_n a_o strong_a temptation_n to_o draw_v away_o from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n i_o have_v thereupon_o think_v it_o a_o fair_a smooth_a way_n to_o walk_v as_o other_o do_v to_o stand_v right_a in_o their_o opinion_n however_o the_o case_n stand_v betwixt_o god_n and_o my_o soul_n again_o another_o thing_n have_v
