the_o worst_a be_v always_o within_o out_o of_o the_o abundance_n of_o the_o heart_n etc._n etc._n if_o thy_o eye_n thy_o tongue_n and_o thy_o life_n be_v naught_o what_o a_o vile_a heart_n have_v

if_o the_o stream_n be_v impure_a the_o fountain_n be_v much_o more_o filthy_a therefore_o away_o those_o carnal_a plea_n and_o foolish_a delusion_n exhortation_n we_o hear_v the_o use_n 3_o duty_n

that_o god_n have_v wrought_v grace_n in_o you_o then_o show_v it_o in_o your_o life_n express_v the_o virtue_n of_o he_o that_o have_v call_v you_o from_o death_n to_o life_n as_o the_o apostle_n

you_o can_v ay_o object_n but_o you_o will_v say_v to_o i_o this_o be_v the_o only_a way_n for_o to_o make_v a_o company_n of_o proud_a professor_n in_o the_o world_n this_o be_v the_o only_a way_n to_o blow_v up_o a_o haughty_a heart_n to_o make_v it_o show_v itself_o to_o the_o world_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o pride_n i_o answ_n answer_n the_o saint_n may_v show_v forth_o

you_o will_v say_v how_o shall_v a_o man_n so_o order_v himself_o that_o he_o may_v be_v neither_o cowardly_a in_o hide_v his_o grace_n nor_o vain_a glorious_a in_o express_v his_o grace_n i_o answ_n answer_v there_o be_v four_o rule_n to_o be_v observe_v first_o labour_n to_o lay_v down_o all_o rule_n 1_o carnal_a excellency_n of_o thy_o part_n and_o ability_n and_o of_o all_o outward_a respect_n that_o be_v in_o thou_o and_o god_n have_v bestow_v upon_o thou_o lay_v down_o all_o those_o in_o all_o thy_o service_n that_o only_o the_o power_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n may_v be_v discover_v to_o the_o view_n of_o the_o world_n let_v grace_n be_v above_o all_o make_v that_o know_v and_o lift_v that_o up_o above_o all_o other_o thing_n whatsoever_o mark_v how_o careful_a paul_n be_v to_o knock_v off_o his_o own_o finger_n 1_o cor._n 15._o 10._o but_o not_o i_o say_v he_o he_o shrink_v in_o and_o will_v take_v nothing_o to_o himself_o it_o be_v not_o i_o but_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o author_n and_o the_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o 1_o phil._n 20._o paul_n do_v set_v up_o god_n on_o the_o pinnacle_n so_o that_o nothing_o appear_v but_o christ_n and_o his_o grace_n he_o lay_v in_o the_o dust_n that_o the_o lord_n only_o may_v tread_v upon_o he_o that_o he_o only_o may_v be_v magnify_v admire_a and_o extol_v i_o will_v have_v a_o christian_a deal_n in_o christianity_n as_o man_n do_v when_o one_o lift_v another_o over_o the_o wall_n he_o that_o be_v lift_v up_o be_v only_o discover_v but_o the_o other_o be_v not_o see_v all_o man_n may_v view_v he_o but_o the_o other_o not_o descry_v so_o i_o will_v have_v the_o soul_n lie_v down_o low_a in_o the_o dust_n and_o at_o the_o foot_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o lay_v down_o all_o excellency_n of_o

and_o bear_v up_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o grace_n that_o he_o only_o may_v be_v present_v to_o the_o view_n of_o the_o world_n second_o rule_n 2_o labour_n that_o other_o may_v acknowledge_v that_o work_n of_o excellency_n and_o that_o the_o excellency_n of_o that_o grace_n may_v be_v see_v of_o other_o but_o not_o of_o ourselves_o matth._n 5.16_o o_o that_o christian_n will_v so_o walk_v and_o

he_o be_v very_o calm_a and_o meek_a such_o a_o man_n be_v a_o very_a coward_n natural_o but_o see_v what_o grace_n can_v do_v he_o be_v courageous_a for_o the_o
base_a corruption_n i_o mean_v the_o profane_a carnal_a wicked_a of_o the_o world_n they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v content_a to_o have_v their_o sin_n take_v away_o that_o they_o be_v not_o

there_o be_v no_o power_n outward_o that_o can_v prevail_v no_o ability_n in_o any_o mean_n that_o be_v able_a to_o tear_v these_o distemper_n away_o from_o their_o soul_n and_o pluck_v the_o cup_n from_o the_o drunkard_n or_o the_o dalliance_n from_o the_o adulterer_n or_o a_o fashion_n from_o the_o fashion-monger_n they_o be_v up_o in_o arm_n present_o nay_o observe_v it_o man_n must_v beware_v it_o they_o meddle_v with_o these_o thing_n they_o will_v take_v away_o man_n credit_n and_o liberty_n and_o life_n many_o time_n rather_o than_o they_o will_v suffer_v their_o corruption_n to_o be_v remoove_v and_o their_o soul_n humble_v by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o word_n john_n must_v rather_o lose_v his_o head_n than_o herod_n his_o incestuous_a adultery_n nay_o the_o league_n of_o these_o man_n with_o their_o lust_n it_o be_v everlasting_a jer._n 18.12_o when_o the_o prophet_n come_v early_o and_o late_o speak_v to_o the_o people_n this_o be_v the_o good_a and_o ancient_a way_n

all_o the_o quarrel_n in_o the_o world_n between_o the_o minister_n and_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o people_n we_o come_v to_o pluck_v away_o your_o sin_n we_o will_v pull_v down_o your_o proud_a

philistines_n deal_v with_o the_o ark_n so_o these_o profane_a carnal_a heart_n deal_v with_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n when_o it_o come_v to_o take_v away_o their_o distemper_n 1_o sam_n 4.9_o when_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n bring_v the_o ark_n into_o the_o camp_n they_o begin_v to_o be_v amaze_v and_o say_v there_o be_v never_o such_o a_o thing_n before_o therefore_o say_v they_o strengthen_v your_o hand_n o_o you_o philistines_n and_o quit_v yourselves_o that_o you_o be_v not_o servant_n to_o the_o hebrew_n the_o ark_n be_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n now_o if_o they_o will_v have_v be_v rule_v by_o christ_n and_o have_v receive_v he_o they_o may_v have_v be_v bless_v by_o christ_n but_o all_o be_v go_v when_o the_o ark_n come_v to_o take_v away_o their_o sin_n therefore_o they_o join_v hand_n in_o hand_n and_o strengthen_v themselves_o against_o he_o so_o it_o be_v with_o a_o naughty_a and_o carnal_a heart_n when_o they_o see_v the_o word_n of_o god_n close_o that_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v keen_a and_o pierce_v when_o a_o man_n shall_v not_o hover_v in_o the_o general_a that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v a_o christian_n and_o profane_a a_o swear_v lie_a profane_a christian_n but_o the_o word_n will_v pluck_v away_o every_o corruption_n and_o master_n every_o lust_n when_o they_o find_v the_o ministry_n thus_o strong_a and_o the_o word_n thus_o keen_a and_o the_o work_n of_o god_n spirit_n thus_o mighty_a they_o arm_v themselves_o and_o say_v play_v the_o man_n o_o you_o philistines_n they_o bend_v head_n and_o hand_n and_o heart_n together_o look_v either_o to_o master_v the_o power_n of_o the_o word_n or_o to_o lay_v down_o the_o power_n of_o your_o corruption_n therefore_o take_v heed_n of_o the_o nice_a precise_a curious_a course_n that_o the_o word_n reveal_v and_o the_o minister_n will_v press_v upon_o you_o the_o resolution_n of_o these_o man_n be_v that_o of_o ruth_n and_o naomi_n they_o say_v to_o their_o sin_n as_o they_o do_v nothing_o but_o death_n shall_v part_v we_o the_o contentious_a man_n will_v part_v with_o his_o estate_n before_o he_o will_v part_v with_o his_o brangle_v so_o the_o ambitious_a man_n will_v be_v content_a that_o god_n shall_v take_v away_o his_o word_n and_o spirit_n but_o shall_v not_o take_v away_o his_o vain_a glory_n you_o will_v not_o part_v with_o your_o sin_n until_o death_n why_o you_o shall_v live_v in_o your_o sin_n here_o and_o you_o shall_v be_v damn_v for_o ever_o for_o your_o sin_n we_o have_v now_o do_v with_o the_o carnal_a gospeller_n and_o profane_a person_n we_o will_v now_o trade_v in_o the_o second_o place_n with_o the_o indulgent_a hypocrite_n i_o use_v this_o term_n because_o it_o fit_v the_o passage_n of_o the_o point_n in_o hand_n and_o he_o be_v casher_v and_o cast_v out_o as_o not_o share_v in_o as_o not_o partake_v of_o the_o least_o dram_n of_o uprightness_n of_o heart_n this_o indulgent_a hypocrite_n i_o compare_v to_o a_o fond_a cocker_a father_n that_o never_o love_v to_o have_v his_o child_n out_o of_o his_o sight_n but_o if_o he_o die_v he_o will_v die_v with_o he_o almost_o so_o this_o hypocrite_n he_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o see_v a_o everlasting_a divorce_n between_o sin_n and_o his_o soul_n he_o have_v some_o secret_a haunt_n of_o heart_n and_o distemper_n of_o spirit_n and_o he_o will_v leave_v they_o now_o and_o then_o a_o little_a but_o he_o will_v not_o part_v whole_o with_o they_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o hypocrite_n be_v hanker_a after_o those_o secret_a distemper_n of_o spirit_n and_o though_o sometime_o the_o word_n do_v overpower_v he_o and_o the_o work_n of_o conscience_n do_v make_v he_o not_o dare_v to_o live_v with_o his_o sin_n yea_o he_o will_v meet_v with_o his_o sin_n as_o occasion_n serve_v and_o they_o will_v maintain_v their_o old_a league_n and_o friendship_n in_o this_o case_n as_o it_o be_v with_o a_o cocker_a father_n when_o sometime_o the_o friend_n persuade_v he_o and_o necessity_n force_v he_o and_o he_o see_v he_o must_v put_v out_o his_o child_n to_o school_v or_o else_o he_o will_v be_v spoil_v loath_a he_o be_v to_o have_v he_o go_v out_o of_o sight_n but_o go_v he_o must_v therefore_o go_v he_o shall_v but_o his_o conclusion_n be_v this_o he_o will_v see_v he_o once_o a_o quarter_n or_o every_o good_a time_n or_o look_v as_o it_o be_v with_o servant_n in_o a_o family_n that_o intend_v marriage_n before_o the_o master_n be_v acquaint_v with_o it_o though_o the_o master_n turn_v one_o of_o they_o out_o of_o the_o house_n that_o they_o do_v not_o dwell_v together_o yet_o they_o will_v meet_v one_o another_o and_o confer_v with_o one_o another_o as_o occasion_n serve_v so_o it_o be_v with_o this_o indulgent_a hypocrite_n he_o be_v very_o tender_a over_o his_o old_a ancient_a darling_n distemper_n privy_a pride_n and_o secret_a self-love_n and_o carnal_a confidence_n and_o earthly_a mindedness_n he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o part_v whole_o with_o these_o but_o if_o reason_n force_v he_o and_o conscience_n press_v he_o and_o he_o must_v part_v with_o his_o profit_n if_o he_o be_v covetous_a then_o with_o a_o sad_a heart_n he_o part_v with_o his_o base_a profit_n away_o you_o must_v i_o must_v cozen_v no_o more_o and_o ease_n away_o you_o must_v i_o must_v suffer_v for_o the_o cause_n of_o christ_n but_o though_o he_o put_v they_o from_o under_o his_o wing_n thus_o for_o the_o present_a yet_o he_o will_v not_o have_v they_o go_v far_o but_o he_o must_v hear_v of_o they_o and_o see_v they_o at_o some_o season_n so_o the_o tradesman_n he_o have_v his_o finger_n knock_v off_o from_o base_a deal_n and_o false_a weight_n and_o measure_n but_o when_o the_o fair_a come_v and_o advantage_n come_v he_o will_v send_v for_o

maintain_v his_o own_o quiet_a this_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o indulgent_a hypocrite_n and_o i_o think_v it_o be_v like_o pharaoh_n deal_v when_o pharaoh_n be_v batter_v with_o the_o hand_n of_o
