no_o affection_n but_o a_o tanquam_fw-la only_o as_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o this_o world_n be_v but_o a_o tanquam_fw-la unto_o heavenly_a enjoyment_n and_o outward_a affliction_n be_v but_o a_o tanquam_fw-la to_o affliction_n of_o the_o soul_n so_o the_o affection_n that_o be_v lay_v out_o upon_o these_o thing_n in_o comparison_n be_v to_o be_v but_o a_o tanquam_fw-la let_v he_o that_o rejoice_v be_v as_o though_o he_o rejoice_v not_o and_o he_o that_o grieve_v as_o though_o he_o grieve_v not_o say_v the_o apostle_n you_o may_v afford_v these_o outward_a thing_n some_o relic_n of_o your_o love_n and_o so_o much_o only_o as_o better_a thing_n leave_v for_o what_o be_v too_o cool_a for_o god_n be_v hot_a enough_o for_o they_o toleramus_fw-la potius_fw-la praesentia_fw-la quam_fw-la diligamus_fw-la say_v austin_n my_o son_n say_v god_n give_v i_o thy_o heart_n thou_o shall_v love_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n with_o all_o thy_o soul_n with_o all_o thy_o heart_n with_o all_o thy_o might_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o strength_n sure_o therefore_o our_o affection_n to_o these_o outward_a thing_n be_v in_o comparison_n to_o be_v as_o no_o affection_n but_o our_o affection_n be_v to_o be_v set_v and_o place_v on_o thing_n that_o be_v above_o not_o on_o thing_n that_o be_v below_o but_o on_o thing_n above_o quest_n but_o why_o be_v we_o thus_o to_o set_v and_o place_v our_o affection_n on_o thing_n that_o be_v above_o ans_fw-fr there_o be_v many_o great_a and_o important_a reason_n all_o which_o be_v as_o so_o many_o proof_n of_o the_o doctrine_n demonstration_n 1._o if_o you_o do_v not_o set_v your_o affection_n on_o christ_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o christ_n you_o be_v no_o fit_a match_n for_o he_o you_o will_v not_o be_v find_v marriageable_a unto_o the_o lord_n christ_n that_o woman_n be_v not_o fit_a to_o be_v marry_v to_o a_o man_n who_o affection_n be_v not_o draw_v out_o and_o knit_v to_o he_o and_o if_o your_o affection_n be_v not_o draw_v out_o to_o christ_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o christ_n you_o be_v no_o fit_a match_n for_o christ_n now_o we_o must_v all_o be_v espouse_v to_o christ_n and_o marry_v to_o he_o as_o the_o church_n so_o every_o believer_n be_v the_o true_a spouse_n of_o christ_n but_o the_o spouse_n of_o christ_n you_o can_v be_v unless_o your_o affection_n be_v draw_v out_o to_o he_o 2_o as_o you_o can_v be_v marry_v to_o christ_n unless_o your_o affection_n be_v set_v on_o he_o and_o the_o thing_n above_o so_o you_o will_v never_o own_v he_o unless_o your_o affection_n be_v set_v on_o he_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o the_o saint_n to_o own_o christ_n his_o way_n his_o truth_n his_o ordinance_n he_o that_o be_v ashamed_a of_o i_o before_o man_n he_o will_v i_o be_v ashamed_a off_o before_o my_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n say_v christ_n now_o look_v what_o that_o be_v which_o a_o man_n do_v much_o affect_v that_o he_o will_v own_v and_o not_o be_v ashamed_a of_o but_o if_o a_o man_n do_v not_o affect_v a_o thing_n he_o will_v not_o own_v it_o but_o will_v be_v ashamed_a of_o it_o but_o we_o must_v own_v christ_n here_o or_o he_o will_v not_o own_v we_o hereafter_o sure_o therefore_o it_o be_v very_o fit_a and_o necessary_a that_o our_o affection_n be_v set_v on_o christ_n and_o the_o thing_n above_o 3_o if_o your_o affection_n be_v not_o set_v upon_o thing_n above_o they_o will_v never_o be_v draw_v off_o from_o thing_n here_o beneath_o it_o be_v the_o gracious_a affection_n that_o do_v mortify_v carnal_a affection_n sin_n be_v ever_o true_o mortify_v by_o the_o contrary_a good_a the_o joy_n of_o the_o world_n by_o the_o joy_n of_o heaven_n worldly_a grief_n by_o spiritual_a grief_n the_o snow_n be_v not_o melt_v but_o by_o the_o warm_a beam_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o more_o your_o heart_n be_v warm_v and_o draw_v out_o with_o love_n to_o christ_n the_o more_o your_o love_n and_o affection_n to_o the_o world_n will_v be_v mortify_v now_o be_v it_o not_o necessary_a that_o our_o affection_n shall_v be_v draw_v off_o from_o thing_n here_o below_o sure_o therefore_o it_o be_v fit_a and_o necessary_a for_o we_o to_o set_v and_o place_v our_o affection_n upon_o christ_n and_o the_o thing_n above_o 4_o if_o your_o affection_n be_v not_o set_v upon_o thing_n above_o spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a thing_n you_o will_v never_o press_v much_o after_o the_o knowledge_n and_o obtainment_n of_o they_o you_o see_v how_o it_o be_v with_o a_o child_n if_o he_o have_v no_o affection_n to_o his_o book_n he_o will_v never_o make_v a_o scholar_n and_o so_o if_o you_o have_v no_o affection_n to_o the_o thing_n of_o christ_n you_o will_v never_o make_v a_o scholar_n in_o the_o school_n of_o christ_n great_a be_v the_o power_n of_o affection_n as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o conscience_n magna_fw-la est_fw-la vis_fw-la conscientiae_fw-la in_o utramque_fw-la partem_fw-la great_a be_v the_o force_n of_o conscience_n either_o way_n for_o truth_n or_o error_n so_o i_o may_v say_v of_o affection_n magna_fw-la est_fw-la vis_fw-la affectionum_fw-la in_o utramque_fw-la partem_fw-la great_a be_v the_o force_n of_o affection_n either_o way_n to_o put_v we_o on_o to_o evil_a or_o good_a look_v what_o a_o man_n have_v a_o affection_n too_o that_o he_o press_v after_o now_o be_v it_o not_o our_o duty_n to_o press_v after_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n sure_o therefore_o it_o be_v very_o fit_a and_o requisite_a that_o we_o shall_v place_v our_o affection_n on_o thing_n above_o 5_o if_o your_o affection_n be_v not_o thus_o set_v you_o will_v never_o be_v zealous_a for_o god_n for_o what_o be_v zeal_n but_o anger_v love_n it_o be_v say_v one_o divinae_fw-la charitatis_fw-la fervour_n the_o heat_n of_o divine_a love_n sure_o it_o be_v the_o top_n and_o extremity_n of_o affection_n now_o be_v it_o not_o our_o duty_n to_o be_v zealous_a for_o christ_n the_o zeal_n of_o thy_o house_n say_v he_o have_v eat_v i_o up_o and_o shall_v the_o zeal_n of_o our_o own_o house_n eat_v we_o up_o zeal_n be_v command_v in_o opposition_n to_o lukewarmness_n be_v zealous_a therefore_o and_o repent_v say_v christ_n to_o lukewarm_a laodicea_n but_o zealous_a we_o can_v be_v for_o god_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n unless_o our_o affection_n be_v set_v on_o thing_n that_o be_v above_o 6_o if_o our_o affection_n be_v not_o thus_o set_v on_o thing_n above_o you_o will_v never_o do_v any_o great_a thing_n for_o god_n we_o read_v of_o david_n that_o he_o give_v 347._o million_o 382._o thousand_o 50●_n pound_n in_o silver_n and_o gold_n of_o his_o own_o cha●ges_n to_o the_o build_n of_o god_n house_n for_o so_o the_o learned_a do_v compute_v the_o matter_n a_o mighty_a great_a and_o a_o vast_a sum_n but_o if_o you_o look_v into_o the_o one_a of_o chron._n 29._o you_o shall_v see_v how_o this_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o he_o give_v such_o a_o gift_n v_o 3._o it_o be_v say_v i_o have_v set_v my_o affection_n to_o the_o house_n of_o god_n and_o because_o i_o have_v set_v my_o affection_n to_o the_o house_n of_o god_n i_o have_v of_o my_o own_o proper_a good_n give_v etc._n etc._n and_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o man_n give_v and_o do_v no_o more_o now_o for_o god_n but_o because_o their_o affection_n be_v not_o set_v on_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n but_o if_o god_n have_v do_v great_a thing_n for_o we_o and_o christ_n have_v suffer_v great_a thing_n for_o we_o shall_v not_o we_o do_v some_o great_a thing_n for_o he_o this_o you_o can_v do_v unless_o your_o affection_n be_v thus_o set_v sure_o therefore_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o set_v our_o affection_n on_o thing_n that_o be_v above_o 7_o if_o your_o affection_n be_v not_o thus_o set_v you_o can_v never_o please_v god_n in_o any_o thing_n that_o you_o do_v for_o god_n for_o as_o he_o require_v truth_n in_o the_o inward_a part_n august_n affectum_fw-la non_fw-la vocem_fw-la audit_n deus_fw-la august_n so_o he_o

male_a say_v malachi_n and_o offer_v a_o female_a to_o god_n go_v and_o offer_v it_o to_o thy_o prince_n say_v god_n do_v you_o think_v that_o i_o will_v accept_v your_o female_a affection_n no_o
