by_o those_o good_a thing_n which_o attract_v we_o with_o delight_n that_o our_o receive_n of_o the_o latter_a may_v more_o easy_o induce_v we_o to_o accept_v the_o former_a the_o consequence_n of_o one_o to_o the_o other_o may_v be_v sufficient_o evince_v and_o confirm_v by_o several_a reason_n of_o which_o i_o shall_v mention_v these_o four_o 1._o that_o supreme_a authority_n of_o god_n over_o we_o which_o be_v plain_o manifest_v by_o the_o good_a thing_n we_o receive_v from_o he_o shall_v oblige_v we_o to_o receive_v dutiful_o any_o evil_a thing_n which_o he_o think_v fit_a to_o dispense_v to_o we_o what_o other_o account_n can_v we_o give_v of_o the_o care_n of_o god_n continual_a providence_n over_o we_o but_o that_o he_o be_v the_o parent_n of_o those_o being_n he_o so_o indulgent_o cherish_v and_o the_o master_n of_o that_o family_n for_o the_o member_n of_o which_o he_o so_o bountiful_o provide_v and_o that_o consequent_o we_o be_v his_o child_n and_o servant_n by_o who_o we_o be_v make_v and_o be_v maintain_v 100.3_o psal_n 100.3_o know_v you_o say_v the_o psalmist_n that_o the_o lord_n he_o be_v god_n because_o he_o make_v we_o and_o not_o we_o ourselves_o and_o we_o be_v his_o people_n because_o the_o sheep_n of_o his_o pasture_n this_o relation_n we_o stand_v in_o to_o god_n give_v he_o a_o supreme_a and_o absolute_a authority_n over_o we_o whereby_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o receive_v whatever_o he_o dispense_v to_o we_o and_o to_o submit_v ourselves_o not_o only_o to_o be_v feed_v and_o maintain_v but_o also_o to_o be_v discipline_v and_o employ_v by_o he_o as_o therefore_o the_o blessing_n we_o enjoy_v be_v proof_n of_o god_n authority_n and_o badge_n of_o our_o dependence_n on_o he_o so_o they_o shall_v be_v forcible_a argument_n for_o submit_v we_o ready_o to_o his_o discipline_n and_o disposal_n we_o expect_v no_o less_o from_o our_o own_o child_n and_o servant_n than_o that_o they_o acknowledge_v our_o authority_n as_o well_o in_o correct_v as_o maintain_v they_o and_o indeed_o we_o seem_v to_o collude_v with_o god_n or_o overreach_v he_o when_o we_o share_v in_o his_o blessing_n as_o part_v of_o his_o family_n and_o yet_o deny_v his_o authority_n when_o he_o think_v fit_a to_o correct_v we_o for_o in_o equity_n if_o god_n have_v no_o right_a to_o send_v we_o evil_a thing_n we_o have_v no_o right_n to_o his_o good_a thing_n and_o if_o we_o receive_v these_o we_o oblige_v ourselves_o thereby_o to_o accept_v the_o other_o also_o with_o this_o argument_n from_o authority_n the_o servant_n of_o god_n have_v usual_o contain_v and_o quiet_v their_o mind_n under_o the_o sharp_a affliction_n 3.18_o 1_o sam._n 3.18_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n say_v old_a eli_n let_v he_o do_v what_o seem_v he_o good_a 39.9_o psal_n 39.9_o i_o be_v

require_v we_o to_o suffer_v for_o his_o sake_n if_o our_o gratitude_n bear_v any_o proportion_n to_o the_o bounty_n of_o god_n we_o shall_v be_v as_o ready_a to_o receive_v any_o evil_a thing_n from_o he_o as_o he_o be_v to_o bestow_v good_a thing_n upon_o we_o and_o be_v very_o willing_a to_o accomplish_v his_o will_n and_o glorify_v his_o name_n by_o our_o suffer_v who_o at_o first_o

he_o a_o very_a disingenuous_a friend_n who_o after_o many_o considerable_a kindness_n do_v for_o he_o refuse_v to_o bear_v with_o we_o in_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v cross_v to_o his_o humour_n or_o to_o undergo_v any_o trouble_n in_o do_v for_o we_o some_o necessary_a office_n of_o friendship_n how_o then_o can_v we_o deal_v so_o perverse_o and_o froward_o with_o god_n as_o to_o receive_v daily_o so_o many_o good_a thing_n from_o he_o and_o yet_o to_o murmur_v against_o he_o and_o his_o providence_n upon_o every_o cross_a event_n he_o dispense_v to_o we_o and_o our_o ingratitude_n herein_o be_v so_o much_o the_o worse_o as_o the_o good_a thing_n he_o bestow_v on_o we_o be_v always_o more_o and_o great_a than_o the_o evil_a thing_n he_o inflict_v for_o there_o be_v no_o man_n
