love_n to_o god_n and_o therefore_o the_o love_n of_o god_n to_o his_o elect_a in_o their_o state_n of_o nature_n can_v produce_v any_o love_n in_o they_o to_o god_n why_o because_o it_o must_v be_v a_o thing_n know_v there_o must_v be_v daybreak_n or_o sunrising_n a_o work_n of_o effectual_a vocation_n and_o calling_n by_o which_o light_n you_o may_v see_v it_o you_o can_v no_o more_o love_n god_n till_o not_o only_o you_o have_v his_o divine_a grace_n but_o also_o know_v it_o than_o the_o pavement_n can_v be_v hot_a or_o reflect_v heat_n to_o make_v you_o hot_a till_o the_o sun_n have_v shine_v upon_o it_o no_o more_o be_v it_o in_o your_o heart_n to_o love_n god_n above_o self_n until_o the_o love_n of_o god_n have_v shine_v into_o your_o heart_n to_o make_v they_o in_o love_n

manifest_v in_o their_o mutual_a fight_n one_o against_o another_o remember_v that_o i_o go_v about_o to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v such_o opposition_n of_o a_o natural_a man_n to_o god_n as_o that_o he_o can_v convert_v himself_o and_o come_v in_o to_o christ_n to_o believe_v for_o neither_o will_v sin_n give_v grace_n entrance_n &_o admission_n nor_o will_v allow_v it_o quiet_a possession_n or_o dominion_n but_o they_o be_v always_o in_o unreconcilable_a war_n while_o there_o be_v remain_v of_o either_o for_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o esau_n and_o jacob_n when_o they_o strange_o struggle_v and_o wrestle_v in_o their_o mother_n womb_n and_o she_o go_v to_o the_o oracle_n and_o ask_v why_o be_v it_o thus_o with_o i_o it_o be_v answer_v in_o gen._n 25._o 23._o there_o

the_o spirit_n and_o the_o spirit_n against_o the_o flesh_n and_o these_o be_v of_o contrary_a persuasion_n principle_n byass_n and_o affection_n and_o every_o man_n be_v opposite_a to_o this_o grace_n by_o reason_n that_o his_o corruption_n have_v first_o possession_n and_o have_v so_o fight_v against_o that_o grace_n that_o come_v to_o take_v he_o captive_a to_o christ_n jesus_n and_o there_o can_v be_v no_o more_o compliance_n in_o a_o natural_a man_n to_o comply_v with_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n then_o between_o fire_n and_o water_n why_o because_o there_o be_v a_o contrariety_n every_o thing_n that_o be_v be_v it_o of_o never_o so_o vile_a and_o base_a a_o be_v will_v be_v what_o it_o be_v and_o have_v no_o principle_n to_o aspire_v to_o a_o high_a being_n a_o spider_n can_v

worse_o and_o more_o contrary_a to_o god_n but_o never_o better_a and_o therefore_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n that_o can_v be_v give_v why_o corruption_n shall_v desire_v to_o change_v its_o estate_n into_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n corruption_n supplant_v grace_n at_o first_o and_o be_v always_o prone_a to_o supplant_v grace_n again_o corruption_n supplant_v god_n image_n at_o first_o and_o be_v ever_o attempt_v to_o do_v so_o again_o but_o that_o through_o christ_n grace_n come_v in_o and_o supplant_v sin_n in_o part_n fight_v down_o the_o dominion_n of_o it_o though_o not_o the_o

regenerate_v grace_n come_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n it_o will_v certain_o kill_v and_o subdue_v all_o kingship_n and_o dominion_n of_o sin_n sin_n shall_v not_o have_v dominion_n over_o you_o
