Then Moses said unto Aaron This is it that the Lord spake saying I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me and before all the People I will be glorified And Aaron held his peace THese words are the speech of Moses to Aaron his Brother endeavoring to quiet and comfort his heart which was no question exceedingly troubled upon that great and sore affliction that was upon him in the strange death of his two Sons Nadab and Abihu The story is this After Aarons Sons were Consecrated to the Priestly-Office they coming to attend this their Office the very first day after their consecration to offer Incense unto God they ventured to offer Incense with strange Fire with other Fire than God had appointed Upon that the fire of Gods wrath broke out upon them and slew them both presently in the very Sanctuary before all the people for it was a solemn time being the beginning of the solemn Consecration of the Priest-hood Upon this the spirit of Aaron could not but be exceedingly troubled to see his two Sons thus struck Now Moses comes to him and saith This is that which the Lord spake I will be sanctified in them that draw nigh me and before all the people I will be glorified And upon this Aaron held his peace We reade that once fire came down from Heaven in a way of Mercy to consume the Sacrifices but now fire comes down from Heaven in a way of Judgment to consume the Sacrificers even Nadab and Abihu they were Aarons Sons the Sons of a godly man the Sons of the High-Priest they were his eldest Sons for Aaron had other Sons besides Nadab and Abihu Eleazar and Ithamar but these were his two eldest Sons they were two yong men they were struck in the very prime of their age they were two that were newly consecrated in the Priests Office for so you find it in the 9. Chap. And they were two men of renown in the Country and before all the people of Israel two men that God had much honored heretofore as you shall find in Exod. Chap. 24. and the beginning this Nadab and Abihu were men of great repute and great renown that God did much honor in former times for when God called Moses and Aaron with the Elders to come to him he singles out Nadab and Abihu amongst the rest and names them And he said unto Moses Come up unto the Lord thou and Aaron Nadab and Abihu and 70. of the Elders of Israel Moses and Aaron Nadab and Abihu are only named and then 70. of the Elders in general but Moses Aaron Nadab and Abihu as if these were the four eminent men of renown among all the people of Israel he names none of the 70. Elders but these two besides Moses and Aaron therefore these two that were consumed by strange fire were renowned men and newly consecrated into their Office What was their sin Their sin it was offering of strange fire so the text saith that they offered strange fire which God commanded them not in the beginning of the Chapter But had God ever forbidden it Where do we find that ever God had forbidden them to offer strange Fire or appointed that they should offer only one kind of Fire There is no text of Scripture that you can find from the beginning of Genesis to this place where God hath said in terminis in so many words expresly You shall offer no fire but one kind of fire And yet here they are consumed by Fire from God for offering strange Fire I find in the 30. of Exod. ver 9. that there they were forbidden offering strange Incense but I do not find that they were forbidden offering strange Fire In Levit. 6. 13. and divers verses in that Chapter we find that God had appointed that they should keep constantly the Fire on the Altar burning and never to let it go out Now that was it seems Gods intention that therefore they should make use of that Fire and that Fire only God would have them to pick out his meaning God sent Fire down from Heaven upon the Altar so in the latter end of the 9. chap. God sent down Fire from Heaven and gave them a charge to keep that Fire on the Altar constantly and never to let it go out so that it seems God would have them pick out his meaning that because he had sent down Fire from Heaven upon the Altar and gave them power to keep that constantly God would have them therefore to understand that what Incense or Sacrifice he would have the use of Fire in it should be only that Fire and no other though God did never say to them directly in these words You shall make use of this fire and no other but God would have them to understand this That 's their sin therefore in offering of strange Fire Now Fire comes from the Lord and doth consume them Some think this Fire came from the Altar but surely it could not be any ordinary Fire that did consume Nadab and Abihu at this time for you shall find in the next ver to my text That the bodies of Nadab and Abihu were not consumed by the Fire no not their cloathes they were kil'd by the Fire and yet their cloathes were whol
in their Children It was one of the forest afflictions that almost ever any Saint of God met withal in his Children this affliction of Aaron at this time That two of his Sons and as I told you the last day renowned men in Israel newly consecrated to the Office of Priesthood that the very first day they came to offer in their Office they were struck before all the people with Fire from Heaven and were consumed Oh what a sad affliction was it to Aaron their Father when he saw his Sons in such a manner destroyed by God Himself Consider of this you that have Children and are ready to murmur and complain of every little affliction that is upon you in respect of your Children If so be that your Children be but a little sick or there be any miscarriage of them you think it is a heavy hand of God But especially if God take away your Children by death then you mourn and will not be comforted Yea but though God have taken away your Children by death yea perhaps it may be by a violent death as being drowned c. yet they have not been strucken with Fire from Heaven by God and they have not been of such publick use These here were renowned men and taken away in their very sin too your Children which have gone upon their lawful imployments and God hath taken away their lives there is no such cause of murmuring here but when God takes away Children in their sins and in such a way as by Fire from Heaven thus God took away Aarons Children and he was as dear to God as you are And yet thus God deals with his Saints with Aaron in regard of his Children and with his elder Children and with two of them together This Example may be enough to still and quiet the hearts of men and women that are afflicted in respect of any calamity that befals their Children You see what a hand of God is against the very Children of Aaron A further Note is this That Gods Judgments we see sometimes though the effect of them be visible yet they come in an invisible way For you shal find if you reade on in this story That they were smote with fire from Heaven but it did not appear what fire for it did not so much as consume their cloathes not their bodies but went through all and struck them dead and no body could tell how Gods judgments do come in a way that is invisible if it had been in a visible flame of fire all would have seen it and it would have burnt their cloaths or their bodies but you shall find in the 5. verse That they were carried away from the Sanctuary in their cloaths they were not burnt Another Note is this That though the lives of men be dear and precious to God yet they are not so precious as his Glory The Glory of his Name is a thousand thousand times more dear unto God than the lives of thousand thousands of People the lives of Nadab and Abihu must go that God may be Sanctified If it comes so in the way as I may so say the lives of men and the Sanctifying of Gods Name the Glory of God must pass on and must have its course let the lives of men go which way they will We think much to have the lives of men taken away but if we know what the Glory of God meant and what infinite reason there is that God should be glorified we would not think it much that the lives of never so many men should go for the Glory of God 'T is mercy that our lives have not gone many times for Gods Glory How often might God have glorified Himself in taking away our lives We have cause to bless Him that our lives have been preserved so long as they have Again Note That the neerer any men are unto God the more they had need take heed that they glorifie Him for they must expect to be spared the less if they sin against Him Nadab and Abihu the Priests of God and they came neer to God yet by their transgression though I told you We do not find in any place of Scripture directly in words that this Fire is forbidden but they should have gathered Gods mind by consequence And therefore by the way I only Note That we must not think to urge upon men in all things strict commands in very words but if it be commanded so as we may draw it by any consequence it 's a command as now here for the Negative they had not a Negative prohibition in words yet they had it by Consequence So for the Affirmative though we have not the Affirmative in express words yet if we may have it by consequence it is an Affirmative as well as the Negative when we have it by consequence But now the Note of Observation is That the neerer any comes to God if they sin against Him they must not expect to be spared Do not think that God will spare you the more because you are Professors of Religion or because you do often worship him I suppose you that are acquainted with Scripture know that place in Amos 3. 2. You only have I known of all the families of the Earth therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities Another Note is this That when a judgment is exemplary then we should have recourse to the Word of God to see how God doth make his Word good in that judgment So Moses doth This is that which the Lord hath said Do you see any remarkable hand of God in the execution of a judgment upon one have recourse to Gods Word and presently begin to think this What is there in Gods Word against that sin that this man hath been guilty of If you see a judgment of God upon a Drunkard remember the threats in the Word of God against Drunkenness and so the judgments of God upon unclean Persons Swearers Sabbath-breakers Lyars or any Prophane and ungodly persons have recourse to the judgments of God threatned in the Word against such and so likewise concerning Scorners and Opposers of Religion remember what is said in the Word of God against such and so learn to sanctifie Gods Name We might have mentioned some particular threats of God against particular sinners for the helping of you that when you see exemplary judgments to have recourse to the Word of God But we let that pass A further Note from this story is this That the great honor that God intends to his Name It is the making of his Name Holy I wil be Sanctified in them that draw nigh me and before all the people I will be glorified As Moses should say in Gods Name I must and will have glory from the people And how By making my Name appear to be Holy this is the glory that I stand upon above all other things that my Name may appear to be Holy that I may appear to be
my Worship as to hold forth my Name to be Holy or otherwise I will manifest my self against them in the waies of Judgment for I will appear to be a Holy God I will have the glory of my Holiness one way or other saith God in those that come neer Me As if God should say Though it 's otherwise with men they indeed will be ready to favor those that are neer them but I will not do so Men will sooner pass by the offences of those that are neer them than those that are not as suppose that a stranger commits an offence you would be severe towards him but suppose it were one of your own Children or Kinsmen what would you do then Do not we see that men will rather favor their own Kindred than strangers though the offence be the same But I will not do so saith God Suppose it be one of your own family wil not you be ready to excuse them Suppose it were your own child that should cōmit such an offence Oh! what friends would you make to take him off from punishment Though men would do so towards their own yet be bitter severe towards strangers Yet I wil not be so saith God Let those that are neer me look to it I will be sanctified by them I will be sanctified in those that draw neer me Now upon this when Moses said thus That God would be sanctified in those that draw neer him this was Moses scope to Aaron as if Moses should say Aaron though I confess the hand of God is heavy upon you this day Yet it is fit for you to submit to God 't is fit that God should be glorified what ever becomes of you you are dear to God but Gods Name is dearer to him than you are what ever the lives of your sons were yet it is fit that God should be honored and his Name Sanctified what ever become of your Sons or of your Comforts and therfore let your heart be quieted you have had a great loss and affliction upon you but God hath had glory God hath glorified himself How hath God glorified himself Very much by this way for God by this way hath done an act to make all the People of the Land fear before him to cause them to Worship him with al reverence All the people of the Land seeing such a Judgment as this and hearing of it they will learn for ever to fear and reverence this God they will say How shall we appear before this Holy God We had need take heed how we appear in his presence and Worship him according to the way that He Himself would be Worshiped As if Moses should say This Honor that God hath by this means in the hearts of his people it is that that you should account a greater good than the Lives of your Children what ever they are This is the scope of Moses speech to Aaron Now upon this the Text saith Aaron held his peace He was silenced It may be before He was expressing himself in grief and sorrow'd exceeding much in words but now he was quiet and had nothing to say he did by his silence acknowledge his Children were deer to him but it 's fit that God should be glorified what ever becomes of his Children and therefore Aaron holds his peace But the word that is here translated Holds his peace It hath more in it than meer silence for the Hebrews have another word that signifie meer silence of speech but this signifies a staying of the heart that it doth not further proceed in and trouble of spirit a silence in the very heart and staying of it a staying of the motions of the heart I find the same word to be used in Scripture when Joshua said to the Sun stand still stay thy self on Gibeon Jos 10. 12. It is the same word that is here translated and Aaron held his peace that is he was stayed from further vexing or troubling of himself or being disquieted whereas his heart was in a strong violent motion Now Moses speech did stop him and gave a stop to his heart to make it stand still in a wonderful manner As the Sun when Joshua spake to it to stand still As if the Lord should have spoken to his heart Aaron thy heart is in a mighty strong motion but consider that I must be sanctified in those that draw nigh me and let all those motions of thy heart be stopt and quiet Thus now you see the meaning of the Scripture and the Scope of it Now in this Scripture you have these Three special and notable Points 1 That in worshiping of God there is a drawing nigh unto Him 2 That when we do draw nigh to God we should take heed to our selves that we sanctifie Gods Name 3 If we do not sanctifie Gods Name in our drawings nigh to Him then certainly God will sanctifie his own Name upon us These are the Three Points that I intend to handle And especially the second to handle largely among you I confess upon another occasion in one Sermon I have spoke out of these words but now I intend not only in general to shew you how you should sanctifie Gods Name in Worship but likewise in the particular Acts of Worship As sanctifying His Name in Prayer in Receiving the Sacrament in hearing the Word in the several chief parts of the Worship of God how his Name should be sanctified For in all these you do draw night to God And for that end I have pitch'd my thoughts upon this Scripture But before I come to these Three great Points that are the principal Points in the words read unto you I shall take up divers other Notes of observation that lie up and down as it were scattered that are of great use and will help us further to make use of this Scripture in the other points that I shall come to afterward and handle more largely The first Note is this That in Gods Worship there must be nothing tendered up to God but what he hath commanded whatsoever we meddle with in the Worship of God it must be what we have a Warrant for out of the Word of God For this speech of Moses is upon occasion of the Judgment of God upon Aarons Sons for offering strange Fire They offered Fire that God had not commanded Hence I say that all things in Gods worship must have a warrant out of Gods word must be commanded It 's not enough that it is not forbidden I beseech you observe it it is not enough that a thing is not forbidden and what hurt is there in it But it must be commanded I confess in matters that are Civil and Natural there this may be enough If it be but according to the rules of prudence and not forbidden in the word we may make use of this in Civil and Natural things But now when we come to matters of Religion and the Worship of God we must either
maker So in Psal 100. 2. Let us come before his presence with singing for that 's one part of the Worship of God But the Scripture is plain that there is a special coming before God when we are coming to Worship him and in this respect the Servants of God in Psal 148. 14. are said to be a people neer to God It is a very remarkable expression and sets forth much the honor of the Saints of God There 's the commendation of the excellent estate of the Saints He also exalteth the horn of his people the praise of all his Saints even the children of Israel a people neer unto him The Saints of God the Children of Israel the Church of God are said to be a people neer to God Why neer him Because that they Worship God they are much exercised in the Worship of God This is one respect though there may be divers others mentioned yet in respect of their coming so much before God in his Worship therefore they are neer God Quest Neer him Why in what respects may a man be said to draw nigh to God when he Worships him Answ To that I Answer There are three respects in which a man when he is Worshiping God may be said to draw nigh to God First Because when we come to Worship God we come to tender up that homage and service unto him that is due from us as Creatures to the infinite Creator that 's the very end of Worship If you would know what it is to Worship God it is this You come to tender up that homage and respect that is due from the Creature to the Creator Now when a Subject comes to tender up his homage to his Prince he comes towards him when he doth it immediately So we have none to tender it up by but Jesus Christ and when we tender it up we must come our selves too for Christ doth nor take our service and tender it up to God and we be absent but we must come with Christ and Christ takes us by the hand and so tenders it up to the Father while we are in presence so that we are said to come nigh to God in that respect because of the immediate tendering up of that Worship of ours to God I call it immediate in respect of any creature But in respect of Christ indeed he is a Mediator to do it but yet he doth it in a spiritual way and we have to do with none but God through Jesus Christ in the tendering up of our Worship to him We may make use of an institution that God hath appointed but we do not tender up our Worship to God through that creature but in the use of that creature we do come to God and our souls are to tender up that respect we owe to God immediatly therefore in levit 21. 21. it is said of the Priests in their Sacrifices when they were to come to Worship God No man that hath a blemish of the seed of Aaron the Priest shall come nigh to offer the offerings of the Lord made by fire So that when any come to offer any offerings of the Lord made by Fire it appears he came nigh to God he came to bring a Present to God therefore he comes nigh So when we come to offer our Spiritual sacrifices unto God we come nigh to God to offer it 's the offering of a sacrifice to God And that 's the first thing because the creature comes to bring a Present to God therefore he is said to draw nigh And secondly The soul is said to draw nigh to God in holy duties because it doth present its self before God in those waies through which God doth use to communicate his choice precious most excellent and glorious mercies to his people I say when we come to Worship God we come to set our selves before God in those waies that God doth use to communicate the choice most excellent and glorious rich mercies that he hath to communicate to his creature When we have to deal with creatures as meat and drink and our outward businesses we have to do with God in them but when we come to worship God we come to present our selves before him in those things that he doth use to let out himself through in a more special and glorious manner to the souls of his people What 's the reason why Heaven is said to be the presence of God and why those that are in Heaven are said to live with God There they behold the face of God and are before him in a special manner therefore when Christ teacheth us to pray he teacheth us to look up to Heaven and to say Our Father which art in Heaven c. Now certainly the essential presence of God is on Earth as truly and really as in Heaven and God is not so as to have one part in one place and another in another but All God is in every place but the reason why God is said to be in Heaven it is because the Lord makes known himself there in a more glorious manner than in any other place and therefore Heaven is the presence of God in a more special way Now then if the communication of God unto a creature be enough to make the presence of God more special if this be enough to make a creature to live with God and to be before his face because they are there where God doth most communicate himself then certainly when we come to worship God we come to be neer God and be with God because the duties of his Worship are those means that the Lord hath appointed for the letting out of himself in the glory of his goodness and mercy to his people You may expect other manner of communication of God goodness through the duties of his Worship than in any other way And that 's the second respect wherein you may be said to draw nigh to God in holy duties Thirdly You may be said to draw nigh to God because then we should and if we worship God as we ought we do act our faith and humility and all the graces of the Spirit We do act them as it were upon God when we come to worship him That 's required in every duty of worship that you should stir up the faculties of your souls and all the graces of the Spirit of God and you should act them upon God when you are worshiping of him 'T is not enough to come with grace when you come to worship God but there must be an acting of that grace upon God And so we find in Scripture that the acting of grace upon God it is a drawing neer to him therefore in Isa 29. 13. the Lord complains there This people draws neer to me with their lips but their hearts are far from me as if God should say Indeed they come and speak to me and therefore they think they draw nigh to me but I expect that their hearts should
give up all that you are have or can do to God Lord I am thy servant take all Faculties of Soul and Members of Body improve all lay out all to thine own praise to the uttermost to bring glory to thy great Name If every time you came to God in Prayer you did this this were to sanctifie your selves to God I spake before of a sanctified heart but now this is in a profession of your selves unto God do it secretly at least in your own thoughts if you do not every time express it in words yet in your own thoughts do it devote yourselves to God every day Of admirable use it would be if every day when men and women worship God either in their closets or families they did professedly devote and consecrate themselves to God and so likewise every time they come to hear the Word or to receive Sacraments God would account his Name to be sanctified in such a work as this is 8. Lastly That that must make all up and without which all the other is nothing it is That you must tender up al your worship in the Name of Jesus Christ let a man or woman worship God never so well yet when they have done all if they do not tender it up in the Name of Jesus Christ God will not account his Name to be sanctified thou must by Faith look upon Jesus Christ as the glorious Mediator that is come into the world by whom thou hast access unto the Father And act thy Faith upon Christ and give up thy Duties into his hand as the hand of a Mediator to be tender'd up to the Father by him though thou hast labored what thou canst to perform Duty as well as thou art able yet thou must not think to tender it up by thine own hand unto God but thou must tender it up to the Father by the hand of Jesus Christ the Mediator and so thou shalt sanctifie the Name of God in holy Duties We reade in Levit. 16. 13. that when Aaron was to tender up the Incense he was to put the Incense on the fire before the Lord that the cloud of the Incense may cover the Mercy-seat that is upon the Testimony that he die not Mark it is as much as his life is worth whether he doth it or doth it not Now Incense it is in the New Testament called Prayer and so in the Old Testament too it was a kind of emblem of Prayer The offering up of our Prayers is the offering up of Incense to God and the Mercy-seat it was a Type of Jesus Christ Now the Incense should cover the Mercy-seat so our Prayers must go up to Jesus Christ must be upon him and so must be accepted by the Father And as we reade in Judg. 13. 20. when Monah offered a Sacrifice the text saith that the Angel of the Lord ascended in the flame This Angel of God here was Jesus Christ as we might easily from this Scripture make it out and he ascends up in the flame from the Altar Now though we do not offer such kind of Sacrifices with Fire and Incense as they did in the time of the Law yet when we are offering up of our Incense there must be a flame of Fervency and Zeal But that is not enough together with the flame of the Altar and the Angel of God Jesus Christ the great Angel of the new Covenant for Angel signifies nothing but Messenger the great Messenger that is come into the world about that great Errend of his To Reconcile the World to Himself He must ascend up in the flame and so God will account his Name to be sanctified the Name of God is not sanctified but through Jesus Christ The acting of our Faith upon Christ as Mediator is a special ingredient to the Sanctifying of Gods Name in holy Duties as you know the Scripture saith That the Altar doth Sanctifie the Gift offered upon the Altar Jesus Christ is the Altar upon whom all our Spiritual Sacrifices are to be offered and this Altar doth sanctifie the Gift that is offered upon it let never so great a gift be offered upon any other Altar it was not accounted holy nor accepted So let men by their natural strength or power that they have offer up the most glorious and speciousest Service to God it is not accepted except it be offered up upon the Altar Jesus Christ We have an Altar now not the Communion Table but Jesus Christ himself is our Altar upon whom we are to offer al our Sacrifices and this Altar must sanctifie the Gift we can never have our Gift Sanctified no nor Gods Name sanctified in this Gift except it be offered upon this Altar and our Faith acted upon Jesus Christ People little think of this but of other things viz. That when we worship God we should worship him with Fear and Reverence and with Humility and with strength of Intention such kind of things every one that hath any enlightening of conscience will think of at some time or other but people do least think of this which is the greatest ingredient of all in the Sanctifying of Gods Name in holy duties that is To come and tender up all to the Father in the Name of Jesus Christ How many men and women that have been Professors of Religion twenty or thirty years and yet not acquainted with this great Mystery of Godliness To tender up all to God in the Name of his Son This is that that upon divers occasions I have spoken unto and am willing upon every occasion as I meet with it to speak of because it is a principal part of the great Mystery of the Gospel without which all our duties are rejected of God and cast away Now then put all these Nine things together and see by them what we ought to do that we may sanctifie the Name of God in holy Duties But there is something further to be spoken that may help you to sanctifie Gods Name in holy duties and that is Several workings of heart sutable to the several Attributes of God for that is to sanctifie Gods Name to have the duty to be such as is some way sutable to such a God as we are now worshiping Now then let us consider what the Scripture saith of God and then let us see what sutable dispositions we should have in us unto those things that the Scripture saith of God 1. First You know the Scripture saith that God is a Spirit in Joh. 4. 24. Then presently Christ saith That he that worships him must worship him in Spirit that is there must be a sutableness in our worship to what God is Is God a Spirit then all that worship him must worship him in Spirit and Truth that is thus When I am to go to worship God I must consider of him as he is an infinite and glorious Spirit well then surely bodily worship is not sufficient for me Though I do kneel down in prayer or
