matter_n that_o 1._o as_o there_o be_v scarce_o any_o person_n so_o there_o be_v scarce_o any_o thing_n but_o may_v be_v make_v use_n of_o as_o a_o instrument_n by_o satan_n to_o draw_v man_n into_o

which_o the_o apostle_n here_o especial_o mean_v by_o temptation_n as_o be_v especial_o those_o thing_n whereby_o man_n be_v wont_a to_o be_v try_v whether_o or_o no_o they_o will_v persist_v in_o a_o

especial_o to_o be_v understand_v by_o temptation_n be_v evident_a because_o of_o the_o expression_n of_o endure_v they_o which_o as_o you_o will_v hear_v more_o by_o and_o by_o denote_v something_o

what_o it_o be_v for_o a_o man_n to_o endure_v temptation_n in_o answer_n to_o which_o you_o may_v take_v these_o follow_v particular_n 1._o this_o endure_v of_o temptation_n do_v signify_v a_o

they_o to_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o commission_n of_o any_o know_a sin_n it_o be_v true_a affliction_n and_o persecution_n be_v not_o thing_n eligible_a and_o desirable_a in_o themselves_o it_o be_v lawful_a yea_o our_o duty_n to_o endeavour_v to_o avoid_v they_o and_o get_v rid_v of_o they_o by_o all_o honest_a and_o lawful_a way_n and_o method_n it_o be_v plain_a from_o hence_o because_o they_o be_v temptation_n and_o as_o we_o be_v to_o pray_v unto_o god_n not_o to_o lead_v we_o into_o temptation_n so_o we_o be_v by_o all_o honest_a and_o lawful_a mean_n to_o endeavour_v to_o avoid_v and_o get_v rid_v of_o persecution_n and_o affliction_n as_o be_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v great_a trial_n of_o our_o constancy_n &_o may_v if_o we_o have_v not_o the_o great_a care_n be_v occasion_n of_o sin_n unto_o we_o affliction_n and_o persecution_n be_v never_o to_o be_v choose_v and_o embrace_v but_o when_o they_o stand_v in_o competition_n with_o sin_n and_o then_o indeed_o they_o be_v to_o be_v choose_v when_o it_o come_v to_o this_o point_n that_o we_o must_v either_o choose_v sin_n or_o suffer_v the_o case_n be_v plain_a suffer_v be_v to_o be_v choose_v rather_o than_o sin_n according_a to_o that_o rule_n e_z malis_fw-la minimum_fw-la of_o two_o evil_n the_o least_o be_v to_o be_v choose_v now_o that_o suffer_v even_o the_o great_a suffer_v be_v a_o less_o evil_a than_o sin_n even_o the_o least_o sin_n be_v plain_a hence_o that_o sin_n be_v the_o procure_n and_o deserve_a cause_n of_o all_o suffer_v if_o there_o have_v be_v no_o sin_n there_o will_v have_v be_v no_o suffer_v all_o the_o calamity_n woe_n and_o misery_n that_o any_o where_fw-mi appear_v in_o the_o world_n yea_o and_o death_n itself_o come_v in_o at_o the_o backdoor_n of_o sin_n by_o one_o man_n sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n and_o death_n by_o sin_n and_o so_o death_n pass_v over_o all_o man_n for_o that_o all_o have_v sin_v as_o the_o apostle_n say_v rom_n 5.12_o so_o that_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o since_o sin_n be_v a_o great_a evil_n then_o suffer_v when_o these_o come_v in_o competition_n together_o so_o that_o we_o must_v either_o choose_v sin_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n or_o suffer_v on_o the_o other_o in_o this_o case_n suffer_v be_v to_o be_v choose_v and_o submit_v to_o and_o thus_o to_o choose_v and_o submit_v to_o suffer_v for_o the_o avoidance_n of_o sin_n be_v one_o great_a instance_n wherein_o do_v consist_v this_o endure_a of_o temptation_n here_o mention_v but_o 2._o it_o denote_v further_o something_o of_o the_o manner_n of_o our_o submit_v to_o and_o endure_a affliction_n and_o persecution_n that_o patience_n and_o quiet_a submission_n to_o the_o divine_a will_n ought_v to_o be_v exercise_v therein_o it_o become_v not_o christian_n when_o at_o

to_o remember_v that_o a_o state_n of_o affliction_n be_v a_o special_a season_n wherein_o we_o be_v call_v upon_o to_o exercise_n the_o grace_n of_o patience_n and_o to_o fortify_v ourselves_o therein_o from_o all_o those_o consideration_n that_o be_v apt_a to_o conduce_v thereunto_o as_o particular_o 1._o from_o a_o believe_a consideration_n of_o this_o that_o affliction_n arise_v not_o

the_o city_n say_v god_n and_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o do_v it_o 2._o from_o a_o believe_a consideration_n of_o this_o further_a that_o god_n do_v not_o delight_n in_o man_n affliction_n mere_o for_o themselves_o that_o he_o do_v not_o afflict_v willing_o nor_o grieve_v the_o son_n of_o man_n he_o take_v no_o more_o delight_n in_o afflict_a man_n especial_o his_o own_o people_n than_o the_o father_n in_o correct_v his_o child_n or_o the_o surgeon_n in_o cutting_n and_o lance_v his_o patient_n that_o he_o intend_v all_o affliction_n to_o be_v medicine_n whereby_o to_o purge_v away_o our_o sin_n and_o to_o bring_v we_o to_o repentance_n and_o humiliation_n for_o they_o and_o that_o it_o be_v in_o very_a faithfulness_n and_o love_n that_o he_o afflict_v his_o people_n and_o that_o there_o be_v some_o need_n of_o it_o one_o way_n or_o other_o whenever_o he_o lay_v his_o rod_n upon_o they_o according_a to_o those_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n if_o need_v be_v you_o be_v in_o heaviness_n through_o manifold_a temptation_n 1_o pet._n 1.6_o 3._o from_o a_o believe_a consideration_n of_o this_o further_a that_o god_n will_v continue_v the_o affliction_n no_o long_o then_o there_o be_v need_n of_o it_o but_o that_o in_o due_a time_n he_o will_v quite_o remove_v the_o rod_n from_o we_o or_o we_o from_o it_o and_o that_o he_o know_v how_o to_o cause_v all_o thing_n to_o

and_o shall_v we_o not_o receive_v evil_a and_o to_o bless_v god_n and_o persevere_v in_o the_o praise_n of_o he_o even_o when_o we_o be_v under_o a_o state_n of_o affliction_n as_o well_o as_o when_o

more_o than_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o death_n to_o become_v life_n hence_o it_o be_v suitable_o call_v a_o inheritance_n incorruptible_a undefiled_a that_o fade_v not_o away_o 1._o pet._n 1.4_o those_o that_o shall_v possess_v this_o crown_n be_v immortal_a in_o their_o soul_n and_o shall_v be_v make_v immortal_a in_o their_o body_n that_o god_n who_o enjoyment_n make_v heaven_n be_v the_o

the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n be_v indeed_o a_o crown_n of_o life_n a_o everlasting_a crown_n a_o inheritance_n that_o never_o fade_v away_o but_o 2._o we_o have_v in_o these_o word_n further_o the_o

shall_v enjoy_v this_o crown_n of_o life_n if_o god_n who_o be_v true_a to_o his_o word_n and_o faithful_a to_o his_o promise_n have_v promise_v this_o crown_n to_o all_o such_o then_o certain_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o they_o who_o endure_v temptation_n shall_v enjoy_v this_o crown_n for_o they_o that_o endure_v temptation_n that_o be_v that_o choose_v suffer_v and_o persecution_n yea_o death_n itself_o rather_o then_o wilful_a sin_n and_o that_o do_v eye_n god_n by_o faith_n and_o patience_n and_o quiet_o submit_v to_o the_o divine_a will_n in_o all_o their_o suffering_n these_o must_v needs_o be_v person_n who_o do_v true_o love_n god_n above_o all_o and_o have_v choose_v he_o for_o their_o everlasting_a portion_n and_o blessedness_n and_o therefore_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v the_o person_n that_o shall_v enjoy_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n but_o 3._o and_o last_o we_o have_v further_o in_o these_o word_n the_o limitation_n of_o time_n when_o such_o person_n shall_v come_v to_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o this_o crown_n of_o life_n after_o they_o be_v try_v for_o when_o he_o be_v try_v he_o shall_v receive_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n after_o that_o his_o faithfulness_n have_v be_v try_v and_o approve_v by_o affliction_n and_o persecution_n and_o temptation_n after_o it_o have_v be_v make_v appear_v that_o his_o trial_n and_o temptation_n can_v not_o prevail_v with_o he_o to_o forsake_v god_n and_o apostatise_v from_o he_o than_o he_o shall_v receive_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n this_o be_v the_o usual_a way_n and_o method_n of_o god_n even_o that_o way_n which_o he_o appoint_v for_o his_o own_o son_n to_o make_v the_o cross_n to_o be_v the_o way_n to_o the_o crown_n to_o try_v his_o servant_n first_o by_o affliction_n and_o suffering_n and_o then_o to_o receive_v they_o to_o glory_n and_o give_v they_o the_o crown_n of_o life_n but_o when_o this_o be_v do_v when_o he_o have_v sufficient_o try_v and_o exercise_v his_o servant_n and_o

the_o last_o consideration_n whence_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o such_o person_n as_o do_v thus_o endure_v affliction_n and_o temptation_n be_v happy_a and_o bless_a person_n now_o last_o for_o the_o

with_o in_o the_o course_n of_o our_o life_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n we_o shall_v not_o court_v they_o or_o run_v ourselves_o wilful_o into_o they_o that_o be_v unwarrantable_a because_o at_o best_a they_o be_v trial_n and_o temptation_n apt_a to_o shake_v our_o constancy_n and_o to_o hurry_v we_o into_o some_o measure_n of_o sin_n against_o god_n on_o the_o other_o hand_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v over_o much_o prejudice_v against_o they_o but_o rather_o choose_v affliction_n and_o persecution_n than_o a_o course_n of_o know_a and_o wilful_a sin_n and_o when_o we_o be_v under_o affliction_n behave_v ourselves_o with_o that_o patience_n and_o quiet_a submission_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n which_o become_v person_n that_o live_v by_o faith_n and_o not_o by_o sense_n mere_o the_o reason_n of_o all_o this_o be_v plain_a because_o that_o affliction_n when_o thus_o choose_v and_o endure_v do_v but_o prepare_v and_o fit_v the_o soul_n for_o eternal_a happiness_n and_o blessedness_n he_o be_v the_o bless_a man_n that_o thus_o endure_v temptation_n for_o when_o he_o have_v be_v try_v he_o shall_v receive_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n we_o may_v hence_o comfort_v
