trouble_n in_o the_o outward_a form_n as_o the_o experience_n of_o saint_n can_v witness_v but_o the_o life_n above_o be_v the_o day_n of_o his_o rest_n wherein_o he_o study_v all_o thing_n and_o

their_o own_o friend_n they_o will_v make_v other_o so_o with_o their_o mammon_n and_o while_o they_o be_v on_o earth_n provide_v for_o heaven_n bless_a be_v the_o merciful_a for_o they_o shall_v

the_o almighty_a be_v therefore_o bountiful_a to_o we_o that_o we_o may_v be_v so_o to_o other_o promise_v that_o if_o we_o feast_v those_o that_o can_v bid_v we_o again_o and_o build_v for_o those_o that_o can_v lodge_v we_o again_o we_o shall_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o that_o mariage-feast_n and_o those_o habitation_n who_o maker_n and_o builder_n be_v god_n if_o man_n then_o be_v their_o own_o friend_n they_o will_v make_v other_o so_o with_o this_o mammon_n why_o shall_v the_o rust_n of_o that_o gold_n rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o thou_o the_o right_a use_n of_o which_o will_v place_v thou_o with_o those_o that_o shall_v sit_v in_o judgement_n turn_v thy_o talent_n into_o city_n and_o say_v the_o foundation_n of_o that_o building_n who_o wall_n reach_v up_o to_o heaven_n and_o that_o be_v our_o first_o position_n but_o can_v good_a work_n purchase_v these_o eternal_a habitation_n by_o no_o mean_n and_o therefore_o our_o second_o position_n be_v this_o that_o not_o position_n our_o good_a work_n but_o christ_n merit_n be_v the_o formal_a cause_n of_o our_o salvation_n for_o neither_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o work_n they_o be_v but_o the_o fruit_n of_o

alone_o our_o saviour_n alone_o by_o his_o merit_n have_v make_v this_o purchase_n and_o prepare_v those_o mansion_n for_o we_o and_o yet_o mistake_v i_o not_o there_o be_v no_o less_o necessity_n of_o good_a work_n then_o if_o you_o shall_v be_v save_v by_o they_o &_o that_o though_o you_o can_v be_v save_v by_o they_o as_o the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o your_o glory_n yet_o that_o you_o can_v be_v save_v without_o they_o as_o the_o necessary_a effect_n and_o argument_n of_o that_o grace_n which_o bring_v glory_n which_o be_v our_o second_o position_n upon_o the_o point_n our_o three_o run_v thus_o the_o poor_a by_o position_n their_o prayer_n receive_v we_o into_o those_o eternal_a habitation_n which_o christ_n bestow_v and_o confer_v upon_o we_o now_o the_o poor_a here_o
