a_o plague_n idolatry_n which_o be_v but_o beginning_n and_o the_o very_o admit_v it_o into_o the_o camp_n and_o the_o fornication_n of_o the_o people_n another_o cause_n of_o the_o plague_n you_o shall_v find_v in_o david_n number_v the_o people_n it_o be_v their_o security_n and_o pride_n and_o trust_v to_o themselves_o and_o the_o creature_n for_o sure_o it_o be_v not_o david_n sin_n only_o who_o have_v somewhat_o forget_v god_n and_o trust_v to_o his_o mountain_n &_o think_v that_o that_o be_v strong_a enough_o but_o it_o be_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n it_o be_v good_a my_o

safety_n consist_v the_o more_o confidence_n in_o this_o the_o worse_o the_o lord_n smott_v the_o people_n for_o this_o security_n in_o david_n time_n another_o cause_n be_v the_o unworthy_a receive_n of_o the_o sacrament_n many_o be_v sick_a among_o you_o say_v the_o apostle_n and_o many_o be_v dead_a because_o you_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n unworthy_o the_o lord_n be_v please_v to_o punish_v that_o particular_a sin_n of_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n unworthy_o with_o some_o sickness_n or_o other_o whether_o the_o plague_n or_o no_o we_o can_v say_v but_o this_o we_o may_v be_v sure_a of_o that_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o so_o many_o be_v sick_a and_o dead_a you_o know_v that_o passage_n in_o the_o book_n of_o chronicle_n concern_v ezekias_n when_o the_o people_n have_v not_o prepare_v themselves_o aright_o as_o they_o ought_v he_o pray_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o it_o be_v say_v the_o lord_n heal_v the_o people_n we_o can_v say_v what_o the_o lord_n heal_v they_o of_o but_o yet_o it_o make_v it_o evident_a that_o the_o lord_n have_v some_o way_n smite_v they_o moses_n for_o the_o omission_n of_o the_o sacrament_n the_o lord_n will_v have_v slay_v he_o that_o be_v he_o will_v have_v send_v something_o upon_o he_o whether_o some_o disease_n as_o be_v most_o probable_a or_o some_o other_o thing_n which_o shall_v have_v take_v away_o his_o life_n in_o the_o end_n the_o omission_n and_o negligent_a receive_n of_o the_o sacrament_n i_o put_v together_o which_o move_v god_n to_o anger_n and_o to_o inflict_v plague_n upon_o a_o people_n i_o will_v name_v yet_o one_o more_o beside_o these_o and_o that_o be_v the_o coldness_n and_o deadness_n of_o their_o heart_n who_o belong_v to_o the_o lord_n from_o who_o he_o expect_v better_a thing_n and_o more_o zeal_n which_o i_o gather_v hence_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o the_o zeal_n of_o phineas_n stay_v the_o plague_n numb_a 25._o 25._o because_o his_o love_n be_v hot_a and_o his_o anger_n be_v kindle_v

cause_n of_o stay_v that_o plague_n and_o of_o withhold_v the_o lord_n hand_n then_o sure_o the_o coldness_n of_o those_o from_o who_o the_o lord_n look_v for_o much_o heat_n for_o much_o fervency_n of_o spirit_n who_o god_n expect_v shall_v stand_v in_o the_o gap_n i_o say_v that_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o the_o lord_n go_v on_o in_o punish_v quest._n but_o what_o shall_v we_o do_v now_o to_o remove_v it_o answ._n amend_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v amiss_o repent_v and_o amend_v and_o he_o will_v turn_v from_o his_o fierce_a wrath_n which_o he_o not_o only_o intend_v against_o we_o but_o be_v also_o already_o upon_o we_o labour_v to_o cleanse_v your_o hand_n from_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n and_o cleanse_v the_o land_n from_o the_o cry_a sin_n of_o uncleanness_n and_o

i_o shall_v speak_v something_o particular_o to_o they_o but_o in_o truth_n this_o concern_v all_o among_o we_o but_o chief_o let_v i_o speak_v to_o those_o a_o little_a that_o be_v able_a to_o pray_v that_o have_v some_o fire_n in_o they_o that_o have_v have_v the_o work_n of_o grace_n in_o their_o heart_n wrought_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o have_v some_o spark_n if_o they_o be_v blow_v up_o that_o be_v man_n fit_a to_o stand_v in_o the_o gap_n it_o belong_v to_o you_o my_o brethren_n to_o do_v something_o that_o the_o lord_n may_v stay_v his_o hand_n and_o remember_v that_o when_o the_o lord_n begin_v to_o send_v forth_o token_n of_o his_o wrath_n and_o displeasure_n against_o a_o nation_n it_o be_v a_o time_n wherein_o he_o expect_v and_o look_v for_o humiliation_n and_o repentance_n therefore_o take_v heed_n of_o neglect_v that_o in_o isaiah_n 22._o 22._o in_o that_o day_n say_v the_o lord_n when_o i_o call_v for_o humiliation_n behold_v kill_v of_o fatling_n

his_o judgement_n

in_o be_v zealous_a for_o his_o name_n sake_n as_o indeed_o where_o there_o be_v abundance_n of_o love_n there_o be_v always_o exceed_v much_o zeal_n so_o it_o be_v with_o paul_n so_o it_o be_v with_o

the_o huckster_n with_o the_o lord_n as_o we_o say_v it_o do_v not_o bring_v thing_n to_o a_o exact_a account_n but_o when_o a_o man_n love_v he_o be_v willling_a to_o do_v what_o office_n of_o love_n and_o friendship_n he_o can_v and_o he_o do_v not_o stand_v to_o look_v for_o a_o exact_a recompense_n for_o that_o be_v to_o play_v the_o huckster_n to_o make_v a_o bargain_n with_o god_n but_o the_o

to_o the_o lord_n you_o will_v not_o stand_v halfepeny-worthing_a you_o will_v not_o stand_v consider_v what_o you_o be_v bind_v to_o do_v of_o necessity_n whether_o you_o be_v bind_v to_o pray_v in_o

glad_a of_o any_o occasion_n of_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n when_o you_o set_v limit_n to_o yourselves_o and_o be_v afraid_a of_o go_v too_o far_o and_o do_v too_o much_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o what_o you_o do_v come_v not_o from_o love_n to_o the_o lord_n but_o from_o some_o natural_a principle_n it_o come_v from_o yourselves_o and_o not_o from_o the_o

than_o yourselves_o be_v willing_a to_o do_v why_o do_v you_o quarrel_v with_o that_o exactness_n and_o preciseness_n and_o strictness_n which_o be_v require_v in_o walk_v in_o the_o way_n of_o god_n love_n be_v abundant_a in_o the_o work_n it_o do_v and_o if_o you_o love_v the_o lord_n you_o will_v not_o set_v limit_n to_o yourselves_o you_o will_v not_o have_v such_o thought_n as_o these_o i_o will_v do_v as_o much_o as_o may_v bring_v i_o to_o heaven_n and_o no_o more_o i_o will_v take_v so_o much_o pain_n as_o that_o i_o may_v not_o be_v damn_v but_o to_o exceed_v and_o do_v more_o than_o needs_o this_o i_o hope_v may_v be_v spare_v and_o i_o may_v go_v to_o heaven_n notwithstanding_o well_o enough_o though_o i_o go_v not_o so_o fast_o as_o other_o man_n no_o beloved_n if_o there_o be_v love_n in_o you_o you_o will_v strive_v to_o do_v the_o utmost_a of_o your_o power_n it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o love_n so_o to_o do_v again_o you_o will_v not_o be_v so_o exact_a nor_o indent_v with_o the_o lord_n what_o he_o will_v do_v to_o you_o but_o though_o the_o lord_n be_v slow_a and_o slack_a in_o reward_v you_o though_o he_o stay_v long_o and_o suffer_v you_o to_o go_v on_o without_o take_v any_o notice_n of_o you_o as_o it_o be_v nay_o perhaps_o he_o give_v you_o many_o affliction_n and_o persecution_n poverty_n trouble_n sickness_n etc._n etc._n though_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o do_v what_o you_o expect_v yet_o your_o love_n will_v be_v free_a it_o will_v go_v on_o you_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o say_v as_o paul_n do_v i_o know_v who_o i_o have_v trust_v that_o be_v he_o be_v resolve_v to_o serve_v the_o lord_n to_o do_v his_o utmost_a though_o the_o lord_n do_v reserve_v himself_o and_o the_o recompense_n of_o reward_n to_o a_o further_a time_n yet_o he_o be_v content_a such_o a_o disposition_n will_v be_v find_v in_o those_o that_o love_v the_o lord_n jesus_n again_o you_o may_v judge_v of_o your_o love_n to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n by_o another_o property_n of_o love_n sin_n which_o be_v a_o hatred_n of_o sin_n by_o your_o hatred_n of_o that_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o he_o for_o love_n be_v not_o better_o know_v by_o any_o thing_n than_o by_o hatred_n for_o all_o hatred_n be_v proper_o root_v in_o love_n for_o you_o hate_v nothing_o but_o because_o you_o love_v the_o contrary_a therefore_o if_o you_o love_v the_o lord_n jesus_n you_o will_v hate_v sin_n examine_v yourselves_o by_o this_o for_o it_o be_v a_o sure_a rule_n if_o you_o love_v the_o lord_n you_o will_v hate_v that_o which_o be_v evil_a you_o will_v say_v object_n i_o hope_v i_o do_v that_o it_o be_v well_o if_o you_o do_v answ._n but_o let_v we_o consider_v that_o it_o may_v be_v you_o may_v be_v angry_a with_o sin_n but_o do_v you_o hate_v sin_n that_o be_v the_o

whether_o you_o love_v the_o lord_n jesus_n try_v it_o by_o this_o do_v you_o hate_v sin_n you_o will_v say_v how_o shall_v we_o know_v whether_o we_o hate_v it_o or_o no_o answ._n in_o these_o three_o thing_n you_o shall_v find_v wherein_o hatred_n differ_v from_o anger_n anger_n and_o thereby_o you_o may_v examine_v yourselves_o first_o hatred_n be_v more_o of_o general_n a_o man_n hate_v all_o drunkard_n if_o he_o hate_v drunkenness_n he_o hate_v all_o toad_n and_o all_o serpent_n if_o he_o hate_v poison_n a_o man_n be_v angry_a with_o this_o or_o that_o particular_a but_o hatred_n be_v of_o all_o i_o will_v ask_v thou_o do_v thou_o hate_v all_o sin_n every_o thing_n that_o be_v call_v sin_n all_o that_o belong_v to_o sin_n if_o it_o be_v this_o or_o that_o sin_n that_o you_o make_v against_o you_o be_v but_o angry_a with_o sin_n you_o do_v not_o hate_v sin_n for_o hatred_n fall_v always_o upon_o the_o general_a examine_v therefore_o if_o you_o find_v this_o disposition_n in_o your_o heart_n that_o you_o hate_v every_o sin_n that_o your_o heart_n rise_v against_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v sinful_a whatsoever_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o lord_n whatsoever_o you_o apprehend_v under_o the_o notion_n of_o sin_n that_o you_o hate_v and_o resist_v and_o strive_v against_o this_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o you_o love_v the_o lord_n second_o hatred_n desire_v the_o utter_a destruction_n of_o the_o thing_n it_o hate_v anger_n do_v not_o so_o anger_n desire_v but_o a_o revenge_n proportionable_a to_o the_o injury_n therefore_o we_o say_v there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o justice_n in_o anger_n it_o will_v not_o have_v the_o party_n that_o it_o be_v angry_a with_o to_o be_v destroy_v but_o it_o will_v have_v he_o sensible_a of_o its_o displeasure_n it_o will_v have_v something_o do_v that_o may_v answer_v the_o injury_n that_o be_v offer_v but_o hatred_n desire_v the_o destruction_n of_o a_o thing_n utter_o now_o do_v you_o do_v so_o with_o your_o sin_n do_v you_o desire_v to_o have_v they_o whole_o extirpate_v and_o root_v out_o of_o you_o to_o have_v your_o lust_n thorough_o and_o perfect_o mortify_v be_v you_o willing_a to_o have_v sin_n so_o clean_o take_v away_o that_o you_o may_v have_v any_o no_o liberty_n to_o have_v dalliance_n with_o it_o in_o any_o kind_n do_v you_o hate_v it_o so_o as_o that_o you_o can_v endure_v to_o come_v near_o it_o nor_o to_o have_v it_o within_o your_o sight_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n you_o hate_v it_o indeed_o last_o hatred_n differ_v from_o anger_n in_o this_o that_o it_o be_v implacable_a hatred_n come_v from_o judgement_n and_o it_o continue_v and_o therefore_o hatred_n be_v not_o a_o passion_n but_o we_o call_v it_o a_o affection_n it_o be_v a_o beauty_n and_o disposition_n and_o frame_v of_o the_o will_n anger_n be_v a_o passion_n that_o die_v and_o flit_v away_o after_o a_o time_n but_o hatred_n continue_v be_v your_o disposition_n such_o to_o your_o sin_n examine_v yourselves_o nothing_o be_v more_o frequent_a my_o brethren_n than_o to_o be_v humble_v for_o some_o sin_n which_o amaze_v you_o for_o the_o present_a but_o do_v your_o hatred_n continue_v if_o not_o you_o do_v

of_o the_o world_n those_o that_o be_v in_o place_n because_o they_o shall_v countenance_v iniquity_n because_o the_o stream_n of_o the_o time_n shall_v go_v that_o way_n for_o this_o cause_n the_o love_n of_o many_o shall_v wax_v cold_a that_o be_v because_o they_o mind_v the_o world_n whereas_o if_o they_o do_v not_o love_v the_o world_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o it_o though_o iniquity_n do_v

want_v courage_n to_o do_v it_o they_o be_v fainthearted_a and_o dare_v not_o adventure_v now_o whence_o do_v this_o come_v but_o from_o the_o love_n of_o the_o world_n for_o no_o man_n be_v fearful_a

we_o come_v yet_o to_o another_o expostulation_n in_o the_o first_o place_n therefore_o if_o you_o love_v the_o lord_n you_o will_v find_v in_o yourselves_o a_o readiness_n to_o please_v he_o in_o all_o thing_n you_o will_v do_v it_o natural_o as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o timothy_n i_o know_v no_o man_n like_o mind_a who_o will_v natural_o care_v for_o your_o matter_n so_o if_o you_o

that_o which_o himself_o have_v plant_v in_o we_o we_o be_v teach_v of_o he_o to_o love_v he_o it_o be_v like_o the_o natural_a affection_n which_o parent_n have_v to_o their_o child_n such_o a_o

the_o way_n it_o trouble_v he_o if_o there_o be_v any_o fair_a passage_n and_o likelihood_n of_o achieve_v it_o he_o rejoice_v now_o if_o you_o love_v the_o lord_n natural_o and_o true_o you_o will_v go_v about_o his_o business_n as_o you_o go_v about_o your_o own_o if_o there_o be_v any_o business_n to_o be_v do_v magistrate_n in_o their_o place_n minister_n in_o their_o place_n and_o every_o

it_o do_v you_o go_v about_o this_o business_n be_v you_o so_o industrious_a and_o laborious_a do_v you_o project_v it_o do_v you_o mind_v it_o as_o your_o own_o you_o will_v not_o stand_v expostulate_v the_o matter_n to_o say_v must_v i_o do_v it_o and_o be_v it_o of_o necessity_n but_o if_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o tend_v to_o the_o advance_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n you_o

will_v be_v with_o you_o if_o your_o heart_n be_v right_o affect_v you_o will_v then_o do_v thing_n after_o this_o manner_n quest._n you_o will_v say_v how_o shall_v we_o know_v this_o love_n this_o be_v a_o nice_a and_o curious_a point_n to_o love_v the_o lord_n thus_o natural_o answ._n you_o shall_v know_v it_o by_o these_o two_o thing_n thing_n first_o by_o the_o evenness_n of_o your_o carriage_n towards_o the_o lord_n for_o what_o a_o man_n do_v natural_o he_o do_v with_o a_o kind_n of_o equality_n with_o a_o kind_n of_o evenness_n so_o that_o as_o we_o say_v a_o uneven_a pulse_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o a_o deadly_a and_o dangerous_a distemper_n within_o so_o i_o say_v when_o you_o find_v a_o unevennesse_n in_o your_o carriage_n to_o the_o lord_n that_o you_o be_v off_o and_o on_o with_o he_o that_o sometime_o you_o do_v a_o thing_n for_o he_o and_o anon_o you_o will_v do_v for_o your_o lust_n this_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o you_o love_v not_o natural_o feign_v thing_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n unequal_a because_o when_o a_o man_n do_v not_o do_v a_o thing_n natural_o he_o can_v hold_v out_o a_o man_n can_v dissemble_v so_o well_o but_o at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o he_o will_v discover_v himself_o what_o a_o man_n do_v natural_o and_o hearty_o he_o be_v like_o himself_o in_o it_o still_o therefore_o when_o there_o be_v such_o a_o unevennesse_n in_o your_o way_n some_o will_v be_v very_o forward_o in_o a_o good_a cause_n now_o in_o a_o good_a mood_n and_o then_o out_o of_o it_o again_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n you_o love_v not_o the_o lord_n thus_o natural_o for_o than_o you_o will_v be_v even_o in_o your_o carriage_n towards_o he_o add_v to_o this_o the_o continuance_n of_o it_o for_o if_o you_o love_v the_o lord_n with_o a_o natural_a
