in_o the_o world_n namely_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n he_o have_v leave_v such_o print_n and_o character_n of_o his_o majesty_n and_o sovereignty_n upon_o the_o affair_n of_o man_n that_o they_o may_v know_v he_o be_v god_n and_o rule_v in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o man_n and_o that_o man_n whatever_o their_o appearance_n and_o blustering_n here_o below_o be_v do_v make_v but_o a_o vain_a show_n they_o can_v stop_v the_o counsel_n of_o god_n nor_o the_o effect_n of_o his_o will_n in_o any_o thing_n who_o shall_v certain_o do_v whatever_o he_o have_v say_v or_o determine_v this_o doctrine_n we_o have_v in_o ecclesiastes_n the_o 8_o verse_n 14._o i_o know_v that_o whatsoever_o god_n do_v it_o shall_v be_v for_o ever_o nothing_o can_v be_v put_v to_o it_o nor_o anything_o take_v from_o it_o and_o god_n do_v it_o that_o man_n shall_v fear_v before_o he_o that_o be_v it_o be_v not_o in_o man_n to_o alter_v any_o course_n of_o affair_n which_o god_n have_v set_v but_o it_o shall_v run_v in_o a_o constant_a course_n like_o a_o mighty_a river_n that_o can_v be_v resist_v thus_o it_o shall_v be_v for_o ever_o and_o if_o god_n will_v bless_v a_o nation_n and_o multiply_v its_o comfort_n and_o prosperity_n none_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o break_v the_o hedge_n of_o his_o providence_n or_o lessen_v the_o heap_n of_o blessing_n which_o he_o have_v give_v or_o if_o he_o will_v bring_v a_o curse_n and_o calamity_n upon_o a_o people_n it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o man_n further_o than_o god_n will_v use_v he_o as_o a_o instrument_n to_o add_v to_o the_o affliction_n nor_o can_v he_o help_v and_o deliver_v from_o the_o trouble_n no_o nor_o mitigate_v or_o lessen_v it_o in_o the_o least_o degree_n whatever_o we_o may_v think_v the_o reason_n of_o all_o be_v give_v viz._n that_o man_n shall_v fear_v before_o he_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v they_o will_v not_o fear_v i_o but_o the_o creature_n if_o it_o be_v able_a to_o make_v any_o alteration_n either_o for_o good_a or_o evil_n thus_o god_n will_v have_v all_o man_n sanctify_v his_o name_n by_o have_v such_o thought_n of_o he_o in_o their_o mind_n and_o he_o seem_v to_o bespeak_v the_o world_n at_o this_o day_n by_o his_o providence_n as_o he_o do_v in_o the_o 46th_o psalm_n verse_n 8_o 9_o 10._o come_v behold_v the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n what_o desolation_n he_o have_v make_v in_o the_o earth_n he_o
