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

that_o be_v adverse_a and_o grievous_a to_o we_o he_o can_v make_v use_n of_o as_o mean_n to_o fright_v we_o from_o obedience_n to_o god_n will_v and_o commandment_n yea_o sometime_o he_o make_v use_n of_o the_o very_a gift_n and_o grace_n with_o which_o man_n may_v be_v endow_v to_o become_v a_o snare_n and_o a_o occasion_n of_o pride_n and_o security_n unto_o they_o and_o so_o as_o lime_n twig_n

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 of_o patience_n and_o christian_a fortitude_n which_o be_v the_o grace_n and_o virtue_n that_o be_v conversant_a about_o and_o wont_a to_o be_v exercise_v by_o affliction_n and_o persecution_n and_o this_o may_v serve_v for_o the_o explain_n of_o the_o first_o particular_a propound_v which_o be_v what_o be_v here_o to_o be_v understand_v by_o temptation_n 2._o i_o proceed_v now_o to_o show_v 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 willingness_n and_o readiness_n to_o suffer_v affliction_n and_o persecution_n yea_o a_o actual_a suffer_v of_o they_o and_o that_o even_o to_o the_o death_n rather_o than_o for_o the_o avoid_n of_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 any_o time_n they_o be_v under_o affliction_n in_o any_o kind_n to_o be_v tumultuous_a and_o unquiet_a both_o to_o themselves_o and_o other_o about_o they_o like_o a_o wild-bull_n in_o a_o net_n but_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 out_o of_o the_o dust_n but_o be_v direct_v to_o man_n by_o a_o special_a providence_n he_o that_o believe_v a_o providence_n in_o general_n can_v doubt_v of_o this_o be_v there_o any_o evil_n in_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 work_v together_o for_o good_a to_o they_o that_o love_n god_n to_o they_o that_o be_v call_v according_a to_o his_o purpose_n these_o truth_n and_o such_o as_o these_o be_v thing_n which_o be_v real_o believe_v and_o due_o consider_v be_v apt_a to_o quiet_a and_o compose_v the_o spirit_n of_o man_n under_o affliction_n and_o to_o make_v they_o of_o a_o patient_a submissive_a frame_n of_o spirit_n these_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o must_v enable_v the_o soul_n in_o a_o state_n of_o affliction_n to_o say_v hearty_o with_o job_n shall_v we_o receive_v good_a at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n 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 we_o be_v compass_v about_o with_o prosperity_n say_v again_o with_o job_n the_o lord_n give_v and_o the_o lord_n have_v take_v away_o bless_a be_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n this_o patient_a and_o quiet_a submission_n to_o the_o afflict_a hand_n of_o god_n as_o it_o do_v arise_v from_o the_o exercise_n of_o faith_n be_v likewise_o include_v in_o this_o endure_a affliction_n here_o speak_v of_o so_o that_o by_o this_o time_n you_o may_v conclude_v who_o it_o be_v that_o be_v the_o man_n that_o endure_v temptation_n he_o be_v one_o that_o choose_v suffer_v rather_o then_o know_v sin_n when_o he_o be_v under_o
