many_o ignorant_a people_n that_o pervert_v the_o word_n to_o their_o own_o destruction_n if_o god_n be_v not_o merciful_a to_o they_o therefore_o why_o shall_v we_o pray_v or_o read_v or_o hear_v or_o use_v any_o mean_n let_v we_o lay_v aside_o all_o we_o can_v do_v nothing_o we_o be_v dead_a in_o sin_n and_o the_o like_a now_o we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o though_o nothing_o can_v be_v do_v by_o we_o till_o god_n bring_v we_o into_o a_o state_n of_o grace_n and_o salvation_n that_o be_v acceptable_a so_o as_o certain_o shall_v bring_v we_o to_o heaven_n yet_o if_o it_o be_v but_o that_o that_o shall_v stop_v we_o in_o the_o contrary_a way_n a_o little_a it_o be_v worth_a our_o labour_n if_o it_o be_v but_o that_o that_o any_o way_n may_v tend_v towards_o the_o bring_n of_o we_o unto_o any_o mean_n that_o may_v do_v we_o good_a why_o it_o be_v worth_a our_o labour_n and_o all_o our_o pain_n but_o especial_o if_o we_o consider_v this_o that_o though_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o do_v that_o that_o shall_v save_v we_o yet_o god_n be_v please_v often_o to_o convey_v his_o strength_n to_o those_o he_o do_v intend_v to_o save_v through_o the_o use_n of_o those_o mean_n rather_o at_o that_o time_n when_o they_o do_v improve_v their_o natural_a ability_n than_o at_o that_o time_n when_o they_o sit_v idle_a and_o do_v nothing_o and_o therefore_o you_o must_v be_v up_o and_o be_v do_v we_o read_v in_o the_o gospel_n concern_v the_o young_a man_n that_o i_o tell_v you_o come_v to_o christ_n and_o inquire_v what_o he_o shall_v do_v for_o eternal_a life_n christ_n profess_v to_o he_o that_o he_o be_v not_o far_o from_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n he_o be_v not_o so_o far_o as_o other_o it_o be_v true_a if_o a_o man_n abuse_v his_o do_v and_o rest_v in_o his_o do_v that_o set_v he_o as_o far_o from_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n as_o profane_a one_o and_o therefore_o publican_n and_o harlot_n may_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n as_o soon_o as_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n but_o there_o may_v be_v many_o action_n do_v by_o a_o common_a assistance_n of_o god_n spirit_n that_o may_v bring_v some_o near_a to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n than_o other_o and_o the_o denial_n of_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o that_o be_v will_v be_v a_o extreme_a boldness_n in_o any_o for_o they_o be_v the_o very_a word_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o young_a man_n that_o he_o be_v not_o far_o from_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o therefore_o notwithstanding_o your_o inability_n and_o notwithstanding_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o do_v be_v not_o the_o thing_n that_o save_v we_o yet_o we_o have_v ground_n enough_o to_o put_v on_o man_n and_o woman_n to_o do_v now_o the_o meaning_n of_o this_o great_a question_n be_v this_o what_o be_v the_o way_n that_o god_n ordinary_o take_v to_o bring_v man_n and_o woman_n to_o salvation_n by_o or_o how_o shall_v i_o follow_v god_n on_o in_o his_o way_n that_o be_v a_o certain_a truth_n of_o the_o ancient_n though_o god_n make_v thou_o without_o thou_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o save_v thou_o without_o thou_o god_n work_v upon_o we_o as_o upon_o rational_a creature_n and_o therefore_o it_o do_v concern_v all_o the_o child_n of_o man_n that_o will_v have_v their_o soul_n save_v to_o observe_v the_o work_n of_o god_n and_o to_o stir_v up_o what_o be_v in_o they_o to_o join_v with_o the_o work_n of_o god_n in_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n and_o certain_o whatever_o conceit_n there_o be_v to_o the_o contrary_a they_o be_v not_o only_o foolish_a but_o extreme_a dangerous_a and_o satan_n policy_n and_o cunning_n be_v exceed_o much_a see_v in_o they_o a_o further_a thing_n that_o i_o will_v premise_v before_o i_o come_v to_o particular_n be_v this_o when_o i_o speak_v of_o any_o thing_n that_o shall_v be_v do_v i_o prescribe_v no_o particular_a order_n know_v that_o the_o work_n of_o god_n be_v various_a and_o sometime_o god_n stir_v up_o a_o soul_n to_o do_v one_o thing_n and_o sometime_o to_o do_v another_o thing_n but_o take_v they_o in_o what_o order_n you_o will_v yet_o we_o must_v name_v they_o for_o memory_n sake_n in_o some_o order_n and_o god_n expect_v they_o from_o you_o and_o you_o be_v to_o join_v with_o god_n in_o those_o work_n if_o you_o will_v have_v your_o soul_n to_o be_v save_v the_o great_a question_n of_o what_o we_o shall_v do_v to_o be_v save_v answer_v first_o if_o you_o will_v have_v your_o soul_n save_v do_v you_o join_v with_o god_n in_o what_o he_o have_v reveal_v to_o you_o concern_v your_o lose_a condition_n labour_v to_o understand_v those_o truth_n clear_o that_o be_v deliver_v in_o the_o word_n concern_v the_o lose_a condition_n of_o soul_n by_o nature_n and_o to_o work_v those_o truth_n upon_o your_o heart_n to_o be_v sensible_a of_o they_o those_o who_o god_n intend_v to_o save_v he_o show_v unto_o they_o what_o this_o salvation_n be_v he_o show_v they_o from_o what_o it_o be_v they_o be_v to_o be_v save_v that_o so_o they_o may_v not_o run_v away_o with_o the_o mere_a word_n salvation_n and_o save_v of_o soul_n now_o god_n reveal_v this_o in_o his_o word_n and_o when_o he_o intend_v to_o save_v a_o soul_n he_o do_v by_o his_o spirit_n stir_v it_o up_o to_o join_v with_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o work_v those_o thing_n upon_o its_o self_n so_o as_o to_o be_v make_v sensible_a of_o they_o as_o thus_o the_o soul_n be_v solicitous_a how_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o be_v save_v it_o search_v the_o scripture_n and_o there_o it_o find_v how_o we_o be_v by_o nature_n the_o child_n of_o wrath_n there_o it_o find_v that_o god_n have_v make_v man_n according_a to_o his_o own_o image_n at_o first_o but_o man_n have_v sin_v against_o god_n and_o break_v the_o covenant_n upon_o which_o his_o eternal_a state_n do_v

now_o he_o have_v the_o seed_n of_o all_o kind_n of_o sin_n in_o he_o and_o that_o all_o his_o life_n while_o he_o continue_v in_o his_o natural_a estate_n here_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o

he_o be_v bind_v over_o by_o the_o bond_n of_o the_o law_n even_o to_o death_n to_o eternal_a death_n as_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n these_o thing_n the_o soul_n find_v in_o scripture_n now_o if_o thou_o will_v be_v save_v when_o thou_o find_v god_n reveal_v such_o thing_n labour_v thorough_o to_o convince_v thy_o soul_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o they_o and_o be_v these_o thing_n so_o indeed_o be_v this_o my_o condition_n be_o i_o thus_o and_o thus_o natural_o oh_o what_o good_a then_o will_v it_o do_v to_o i_o to_o have_v all_o the_o world_n and_o be_v in_o such_o a_o condition_n as_o

you_o must_v come_v to_o a_o conviction_n not_o only_o of_o your_o lose_a estate_n but_o of_o your_o inability_n to_o save_v yourselves_o and_o the_o inability_n that_o there_o be_v in_o all_o

such_o poor_a worm_n for_o such_o vile_a base_a creature_n as_o we_o be_v why_o may_v not_o man_n and_o angel_n have_v think_v thus_o why_o lord_n have_v it_o not_o be_v better_o for_o ten_o

suffer_v so_o as_o he_o do_v but_o no_o say_v god_n i_o will_v manifest_v a_o great_a wonder_n in_o the_o world_n in_o this_o that_o all_o this_o shall_v be_v do_v and_o suffer_v for_o poor_a worm_n man_n in_o who_o eternal_a destruction_n i_o may_v have_v glorify_v myself_o for_o ever_o though_o it_o be_v true_a i_o can_v as_o well_o have_v honour_v myself_o in_o their_o ruin_n and_o

in_o the_o humiliation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n christ_n wonderful_a in_o his_o conquest_n but_o now_o it_o follow_v further_o that_o christ_n likewise_o be_v wonderful_a in_o his_o conquest_n he_o be_v the_o most_o glorious_a and_o wonderful_a conqueror_n that_o ever_o be_v in_o the_o world_n for_o first_o what_o do_v he_o conquer_v what_o do_v he_o triumph_v over_o what_o he_o have_v conquer_v even_o divine_a justice_n itself_o as_o i_o may_v so_o speak_v the_o law_n god_n wrath_n and_o justice_n come_v even_o fight_v as_o it_o be_v against_o jesus_n christ_n and_o christ_n encounter_v with_o they_o yea_o he_o encounter_v with_o the_o devil_n and_o with_o hell_n and_o with_o death_n all_o these_o be_v enemy_n that_o jesus_n christ_n encounter_v withal_o and_o certain_o have_v any_o one_o but_o see_v christ_n go_v into_o the_o list_n to_o encounter_v with_o these_o combatant_n he_o can_v not_o but_o have_v stand_v amaze_v at_o it_o oh_o what_o will_v become_v of_o this_o champion_n that_o be_v enter_v into_o such_o a_o combat_n as_o this_o be_v but_o stay_v but_o a_o little_a and_o you_o shall_v see_v he_o lead_v captivity_n captive_a you_o shall_v see_v he_o triumph_v over_o all_o you_o shall_v see_v he_o conquer_a and_o say_v i_o have_v the_o key_n of_o hell_n i_o that_o be_v dead_a be_o rise_v and_o have_v the_o key_n of_o hell_n and_o death_n you_o shall_v see_v he_o triumph_v over_o wrath_n and_o justice_n and_o the_o law_n and_o the_o devil_n you_o shall_v see_v he_o fetch_v all_o that_o he_o come_v for_o out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o devil_n yea_o here_o be_v the_o wonder_n of_o the_o conquest_n never_o be_v there_o a_o man_n that_o do_v conquer_v death_n but_o only_a jesus_n christ_n that_o have_v power_n over_o death_n all_o other_o conqueror_n they_o may_v conquer_v man_n and_o kill_v they_o but_o they_o can_v conquer_v death_n itself_o now_o jesus_n christ_n conquest_n be_v over_o death_n its_o self_n to_o have_v the_o very_a key_n of_o death_n and_o that_o follow_v death_n and_o hell_n and_o further_o which_o make_v the_o wonder_n of_o his_o conquest_n he_o do_v conquer_v death_n by_o die_v that_o be_v the_o wonder_n of_o it_o what_o man_n conquer_v his_o enemy_n by_o be_v slay_v himself_o jesus_n christ_n do_v so_o he_o conquer_v all_o his_o enemy_n that_o come_v against_o he_o he_o conquer_v they_o by_o die_v and_o therefore_o in_o col._n 2._o it_o be_v speak_v of_o christ_n come_v to_o die_v upon_o the_o cross_n and_o have_v spoil_v principality_n and_o power_n he_o make_v a_o show_n of_o they_o open_o triumph_v over_o they_o in_o it_o when_o christ_n be_v bring_v upon_o the_o cross_n one_o will_v think_v he_o have_v be_v triumph_v over_o himself_o then_o for_o he_o be_v bring_v very_o low_o indeed_o when_o he_o be_v bring_v there_o to_o hang_v between_o two_o malefactor_n as_o if_o he_o have_v be_v the_o great_a malefactor_n of_o all_o now_o one_o will_v have_v think_v that_o devil_n and_o wicked_a man_n and_o death_n and_o all_o have_v triumph_v over_o he_o but_o mark_v the_o text_n say_v that_o he_o do_v there_o spoil_v principality_n and_o power_n and_o make_v a_o show_n of_o they_o open_o triumph_v over_o they_o in_o it_o we_o can_v imagine_v somewhat_o of_o christ_n triumph_n now_o in_o heaven_n sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o the_o father_n when_o he_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n there_o he_o triumph_v but_o to_o imagine_v a_o triumph_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o cross_n when_o his_o enemy_n be_v scorn_v and_o contemn_v he_o that_o then_o he_o shall_v spoil_v

christ_n triumph_n and_o then_o further_o the_o wonder_n of_o the_o triumph_n of_o christ_n consist_v in_o this_o that_o he_o have_v not_o only_o vanquish_v all_o the_o enemy_n of_o his_o people_n but_o he_o have_v vanquish_v they_o by_o his_o own_o power_n conqueror_n have_v use_v of_o the_o strength_n of_o other_o but_o christ_n have_v strength_n enough_o of_o his_o own_o without_o any_o addition_n and_o he_o do_v not_o only_o quell_v the_o adversary_n but_o he_o turn_v all_o into_o good_a to_o his_o people_n it_o be_v one_o thing_n for_o a_o conqueror_n to_o overcome_v a_o enemy_n so_o as_o a_o enemy_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o do_v any_o more_o hurt_n to_o those_o that_o belong_v to_o he_o and_o another_o thing_n to_o subdue_v they_o so_o far_o as_o to_o make_v they_o all_o to_o be_v servant_n to_o he_o that_o be_v a_o great_a conquest_n man_n by_o a_o strong_a army_n may_v be_v a_o conqueror_n by_o kill_v his_o enemy_n and_o so_o never_o to_o hear_v of_o they_o more_o but_o if_o he_o can_v subdue_v and_o bring_v they_o all_o to_o be_v useful_a and_o serviceable_a to_o himself_o and_o his_o people_n this_o conquest_n be_v a_o great_a deal_n the_o more_o glorious_a now_o such_o be_v the_o conquest_n of_o christ_n that_o he_o have_v not_o only_o quell_v their_o power_n but_o have_v bring_v all_o to_o be_v serviceable_a to_o his_o people_n the_o law_n be_v serviceable_a to_o they_o and_o now_o god_n justice_n be_v for_o good_a to_o they_o and_o the_o very_a wrath_n of_o god_n be_v now_o for_o their_o good_a and_o the_o devil_n and_o death_n and_o hell_n and_o wicked_a man_n they_o be_v all_o make_v useful_a unto_o jesus_n christ_n and_o so_o unto_o his_o people_n last_o christ_n be_v wonderful_a in_o his_o conquest_n in_o this_o that_o he_o

of_o death_n or_o hell_n yet_o i_o say_v if_o thou_o be_v a_o believer_n thou_o have_v conquer_v all_o these_o already_o they_o be_v not_o one●y_o conquer_v to_o thy_o hand_n but_o thou_o have_v
