in_o their_o child_n it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o forest_n affliction_n that_o almost_o ever_o any_o saint_n of_o god_n meet_v withal_o in_o his_o child_n this_o affliction_n of_o aaron_n at_o this_o time_n that_o two_o of_o his_o son_n and_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o the_o last_o day_n renown_a man_n in_o israel_n new_o consecrate_v to_o the_o office_n of_o priesthood_n that_o the_o very_o first_o day_n they_o come_v to_o offer_v in_o their_o office_n they_o be_v strike_v before_o all_o the_o people_n with_o fire_n from_o heaven_n and_o be_v consume_v oh_o what_o a_o sad_a affliction_n be_v it_o to_o aaron_n their_o father_n when_o he_o see_v his_o son_n in_o such_o a_o manner_n destroy_v by_o god_n himself_o consider_v of_o this_o you_o that_o have_v child_n and_o be_v ready_a to_o murmur_v and_o complain_v of_o every_o little_a affliction_n that_o be_v upon_o you_o in_o respect_n of_o your_o child_n if_o so_o be_v that_o your_o child_n be_v but_o a_o little_a sick_a or_o there_o be_v any_o miscarriage_n of_o they_o you_o think_v it_o be_v a_o heavy_a hand_n of_o god_n but_o especial_o if_o god_n take_v away_o your_o child_n by_o death_n than_o you_o mourn_v and_o will_v not_o be_v comfort_v yea_o but_o though_o god_n have_v take_v away_o your_o child_n by_o death_n yea_o perhaps_o it_o may_v be_v by_o a_o violent_a death_n as_o be_v drown_v etc._n etc._n yet_o they_o have_v not_o be_v strike_v with_o fire_n from_o heaven_n by_o god_n and_o they_o have_v not_o be_v of_o such_o public_a use_n these_o here_o be_v renown_a man_n and_o take_v away_o in_o their_o very_a sin_n too_o your_o child_n which_o have_v go_v upon_o their_o lawful_a employment_n and_o god_n have_v take_v away_o their_o life_n there_o be_v no_o such_o cause_n of_o murmur_v here_o but_o when_o god_n take_v away_o child_n in_o their_o sin_n and_o in_o such_o a_o way_n as_o by_o fire_n from_o heaven_n thus_o god_n take_v away_o aaron_n child_n and_o he_o be_v as_o dear_a to_o god_n as_o you_o be_v and_o yet_o thus_o god_n deal_v with_o his_o saint_n with_o aaron_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o child_n and_o with_o his_o elder_a child_n and_o with_o two_o of_o they_o together_o this_o example_n may_v be_v enough_o to_o still_o and_o quiet_a the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o be_v afflict_v in_o respect_n of_o any_o calamity_n that_o befall_v their_o child_n you_o see_v what_o a_o hand_n of_o god_n be_v against_o the_o very_a child_n of_o aaron_n a_o further_a note_n be_v this_o that_o god_n judgement_n we_o see_v sometime_o though_o the_o effect_n of_o they_o be_v visible_a yet_o they_o come_v in_o a_o invisible_a way_n for_o you_o shall_v find_v if_o you_o read_v on_o in_o this_o story_n that_o they_o be_v smite_v with_o fire_n from_o heaven_n but_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v what_o fire_n for_o it_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o consume_v their_o clothes_n not_o their_o body_n but_o go_v through_o all_o and_o strike_v they_o dead_a and_o no_o body_n can_v tell_v how_o god_n judgement_n do_v come_v in_o a_o way_n that_o be_v invisible_a if_o it_o have_v be_v in_o a_o visible_a flame_n of_o fire_n all_o will_v have_v see_v it_o and_o it_o will_v have_v burn_v their_o clothes_n or_o their_o body_n but_o you_o shall_v find_v in_o the_o 5._o verse_n that_o they_o be_v carry_v away_o from_o the_o sanctuary_n in_o their_o clothes_n they_o be_v not_o burn_v another_o note_n be_v this_o that_o though_o the_o life_n of_o man_n be_v dear_a and_o precious_a to_o god_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o so_o precious_a as_o his_o glory_n the_o glory_n of_o his_o name_n be_v a_o thousand_o thousand_o time_n more_o dear_a unto_o god_n than_o the_o life_n of_o thousand_o thousand_o of_o people_n the_o life_n of_o nadab_n and_o abihu_n must_v go_v that_o god_n may_v be_v sanctify_v if_o it_o come_v so_o in_o the_o way_n as_o i_o may_v so_o say_v the_o life_n of_o man_n and_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_n the_o glory_n of_o god_n must_v pass_v on_o and_o must_v have_v its_o course_n let_v the_o life_n of_o man_n go_v which_o way_n they_o will_n we_o think_v much_o to_o have_v the_o life_n of_o man_n take_v away_o but_o if_o we_o know_v what_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n mean_v and_o what_o infinite_a reason_n there_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v be_v glorify_v we_o will_v not_o think_v it_o much_o that_o the_o life_n of_o never_o so_o many_o man_n shall_v go_v for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n it_o be_v mercy_n that_o our_o life_n have_v not_o go_v many_o time_n for_o god_n glory_n how_o often_o may_v god_n have_v glorify_v himself_o in_o take_v away_o our_o life_n we_o have_v cause_n to_o bless_v he_o that_o our_o life_n have_v be_v preserve_v so_o long_o as_o they_o have_v again_o note_v that_o the_o near_a any_o man_n be_v unto_o god_n the_o more_o they_o have_v need_n take_v heed_n that_o they_o glorify_v he_o for_o they_o must_v expect_v to_o be_v spare_v the_o less_o if_o they_o sin_n against_o he_o nadab_n and_o abihu_n the_o priest_n of_o god_n and_o they_o come_v near_o to_o god_n yet_o by_o their_o transgression_n though_o i_o tell_v you_o we_o do_v not_o find_v in_o any_o place_n of_o scripture_n direct_o in_o word_n that_o this_o fire_n be_v forbid_v but_o they_o shall_v have_v gather_v god_n mind_n by_o consequence_n and_o therefore_o by_o the_o way_n i_o only_o note_v that_o we_o must_v not_o think_v to_o urge_v upon_o man_n in_o all_o thing_n strict_a command_n in_o very_a word_n but_o if_o it_o be_v command_v so_o as_o we_o may_v draw_v it_o by_o any_o consequence_n it_o be_v a_o command_n as_o now_o here_o for_o the_o negative_a they_o have_v not_o a_o negative_a prohibition_n in_o word_n yet_o they_o have_v it_o by_o consequence_n so_o for_o the_o affirmative_a though_o we_o have_v not_o the_o affirmative_a in_o express_a word_n yet_o if_o we_o may_v have_v it_o by_o consequence_n it_o be_v a_o affirmative_a as_o well_o as_o the_o negative_a when_o we_o have_v it_o by_o consequence_n but_o now_o the_o note_n of_o observation_n be_v that_o the_o near_a any_o come_v to_o god_n if_o they_o sin_n against_o he_o they_o must_v not_o expect_v to_o be_v spare_v do_v not_o think_v that_o god_n will_v spare_v you_o the_o more_o because_o you_o be_v professor_n of_o religion_n or_o because_o you_o do_v often_o worship_v he_o i_o suppose_v you_o that_o be_v acquaint_v with_o scripture_n know_v that_o place_n in_o amos_n 3._o 2._o you_o only_o have_v i_o know_v of_o all_o the_o family_n of_o the_o earth_n therefore_o i_o will_v punish_v you_o for_o all_o your_o iniquity_n another_o note_n be_v this_o that_o when_o a_o judgement_n be_v exemplary_a than_o we_o shall_v have_v recourse_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o see_v how_o god_n do_v make_v his_o word_n good_a in_o that_o judgement_n so_o moses_n do_v this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v do_v you_o see_v any_o remarkable_a hand_n of_o god_n in_o the_o execution_n of_o a_o judgement_n upon_o one_o have_v recourse_n to_o god_n word_n and_o present_o begin_v to_o think_v this_o what_o be_v there_o in_o god_n word_n against_o that_o sin_n that_o this_o man_n have_v be_v guilty_a of_o if_o you_o see_v a_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o a_o drunkard_n remember_v the_o threat_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n against_o drunkenness_n and_o so_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o unclean_a person_n swearer_n sabbath-breaker_n liar_n or_o any_o profane_a and_o ungodly_a person_n have_v recourse_n to_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n threaten_v in_o the_o word_n against_o such_o and_o so_o likewise_o concern_v scorner_n and_o opposer_n of_o religion_n remember_v what_o be_v say_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n against_o such_o and_o so_o learn_v to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n we_o may_v have_v mention_v some_o particular_a threat_n of_o god_n against_o particular_a sinner_n for_o the_o help_a of_o you_o that_o when_o you_o see_v exemplary_a judgement_n to_o have_v recourse_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o we_o let_v that_o pass_v a_o further_a note_n from_o this_o story_n be_v this_o that_o the_o great_a honour_n that_o god_n intend_v to_o his_o name_n it_o be_v the_o make_n of_o his_o name_n holy_a i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o they_o that_o draw_v nigh_o i_o and_o before_o all_o the_o people_n i_o will_v be_v glorify_v as_o moses_n shall_v say_v in_o god_n name_n i_o must_v and_o will_v have_v glory_n from_o the_o people_n and_o how_o by_o make_v my_o name_n appear_v to_o be_v holy_a this_o be_v the_o glory_n that_o i_o stand_v upon_o above_o all_o other_o thing_n that_o my_o name_n may_v appear_v to_o be_v holy_a that_o i_o may_v appear_v to_o be_v

in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o chapter_n but_o have_v god_n ever_o forbid_v it_o where_o do_v we_o find_v that_o ever_o god_n have_v forbid_v they_o to_o offer_v strange_a fire_n or_o appoint_v that_o they_o shall_v offer_v only_o one_o kind_n of_o fire_n there_o be_v no_o text_n of_o scripture_n that_o you_o can_v find_v from_o the_o begin_n of_o genesis_n to_o this_o place_n where_o god_n have_v

offer_v strange_a fire_n i_o find_v in_o the_o 30._o of_o exod._n ver_fw-la 9_o that_o there_o they_o be_v forbid_v offer_v strange_a incense_n but_o i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o they_o be_v forbid_v offer_v strange_a fire_n in_o levit._n 6._o 13._o and_o divers_a verse_n in_o that_o chapter_n we_o find_v that_o god_n have_v appoint_v that_o they_o shall_v keep_v constant_o the_o fire_n on_o the_o altar_n burn_v and_o never_o to_o let_v it_o go_v out_o now_o that_o be_v it_o seem_v god_n intention_n that_o therefore_o they_o shall_v make_v use_n of_o that_o fire_n and_o that_o fire_n only_o god_n will_v have_v they_o to_o pick_v out_o his_o meaning_n god_n send_v fire_n down_o from_o heaven_n upon_o the_o altar_n so_o in_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o the_o 9_o chap._n god_n send_v down_o fire_n from_o heaven_n and_o give_v they_o a_o charge_n to_o keep_v that_o fire_n on_o the_o altar_n constant_o and_o never_o to_o let_v it_o go_v out_o so_o that_o it_o seem_v god_n will_v have_v they_o pick_v out_o his_o meaning_n that_o because_o he_o have_v send_v down_o fire_n from_o heaven_n upon_o the_o altar_n and_o give_v they_o power_n to_o keep_v that_o constant_o god_n will_v have_v

the_o scope_n of_o it_o now_o in_o this_o scripture_n you_o have_v these_o three_o special_a and_o notable_a point_n 1_o that_o in_o worship_v of_o god_n there_o be_v a_o draw_v nigh_o unto_o he_o 2_o that_o when_o we_o do_v draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n we_o shall_v take_v heed_n to_o ourselves_o that_o we_o sanctify_v god_n name_n 3_o if_o we_o do_v not_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o our_o drawing_n nigh_o to_o he_o then_o certain_o god_n will_v sanctify_v his_o own_o name_n upon_o we_o these_o be_v the_o three_o point_n that_o i_o intend_v to_o handle_v and_o especial_o the_o second_o to_o handle_v large_o among_o you_o i_o confess_v upon_o another_o occasion_n in_o one_o sermon_n i_o have_v speak_v out_o of_o these_o word_n but_o now_o i_o intend_v not_o only_o in_o general_n to_o show_v you_o how_o you_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o worship_n but_o likewise_o in_o the_o particular_a act_n of_o worship_n as_o sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o prayer_n in_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n in_o hear_v the_o word_n in_o the_o several_a chief_a part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n how_o his_o name_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v for_o in_o all_o these_o you_o do_v draw_v night_n to_o god_n and_o for_o that_o end_n i_o have_v pitch_v my_o thought_n upon_o this_o scripture_n but_o before_o i_o come_v to_o these_o three_o great_a point_n that_o be_v the_o principal_a point_n in_o the_o word_n read_v unto_o you_o i_o shall_v take_v up_o divers_a other_o note_n of_o observation_n that_o lie_v up_o and_o down_o as_o it_o be_v scatter_v that_o be_v of_o great_a use_n and_o will_v help_v we_o further_a to_o make_v use_n of_o this_o scripture_n in_o the_o other_o point_n that_o i_o shall_v come_v to_o afterward_o and_o handle_v more_o large_o the_o first_o note_n be_v this_o that_o in_o god_n worship_n there_o must_v be_v nothing_o tender_v up_o to_o god_n but_o what_o he_o have_v command_v whatsoever_o we_o meddle_v with_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n it_o must_v be_v what_o we_o have_v a_o warrant_n for_o out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o this_o speech_n of_o moses_n be_v upon_o occasion_n of_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o aaron_n son_n for_o offer_v strange_a fire_n they_o offer_v fire_n that_o god_n have_v not_o command_v hence_o i_o say_v that_o all_o thing_n in_o god_n worship_n must_v have_v a_o warrant_v out_o of_o god_n word_n must_v be_v command_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o it_o be_v not_o forbid_v i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v it_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o a_o thing_n be_v not_o forbid_v and_o what_o hurt_n be_v there_o in_o it_o but_o it_o must_v be_v command_v i_o confess_v in_o matter_n that_o be_v civil_a and_o natural_a there_o this_o may_v be_v enough_o if_o it_o be_v but_o according_a to_o the_o

of_o this_o temper_n that_o you_o will_v forbear_v nothing_o nor_o set_v up_o any_o thing_n but_o what_o you_o have_v direct_o express_v word_n of_o scripture_n for_o you_o may_v run_v at_o your_o

we_o must_v have_v warrant_n from_o the_o word_n but_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o we_o must_v have_v a_o direct_v express_a warrant_n in_o every_o thing_n as_o it_o be_v many_o time_n in_o some_o

it_o be_v the_o cast_n of_o the_o look_n that_o cause_v the_o beauty_n of_o the_o picture_n so_o in_o the_o scripture_n you_o can_v say_v that_o this_o one_o line_n or_o the_o other_o line_n take_v

to_o it_o that_o be_v a_o point_n that_o if_o god_n will_v but_o settle_v it_o upon_o our_o heart_n may_v be_v of_o very_o great_a use_n a_o gracious_a heart_n will_v see_v the_o truth_n through_o a_o

how_o easy_a be_v it_o to_o convince_v a_o man_n after_o he_o be_v humble_v the_o eight_o note_n be_v this_o that_o sinner_n may_v meet_v with_o some_o judgement_n of_o god_n that_o be_v never_o threaten_v in_o his_o word_n god_n do_v never_o threaten_v beforehand_o and_o say_v whosoever_o offer_v strange_a fire_n i_o will_v consume_v they_o with_o fire_n from_o heaven_n but_o they_o meet_v with_o a_o judgement_n that_o be_v not_o threaten_v consider_v of_o this_o it_o may_v be_v when_o we_o come_v to_o speak_v out_o of_o the_o word_n and_o show_v you_o plain_o how_o god_n do_v threaten_v such_o and_o such_o sin_n you_o be_v afraid_a then_o but_o know_v if_o thou_o venture_v upon_o way_n of_o sin_n thou_o may_v meet_v with_o dreadful_a judgement_n execute_v that_o never_o yet_o be_v threaten_v beside_o all_o those_o judgement_n that_o be_v threaten_v in_o the_o book_n of_o god_n thou_o may_v meet_v with_o judgement_n unheard_a of_o unexpected_a as_o god_n have_v mercy_n beyond_o what_o he_o have_v express_o reveal_v in_o his_o word_n for_o never_o be_v it_o hear_v since_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n what_o god_n have_v lay_v up_o for_o they_o that_o love_v he_o so_o god_n have_v judgement_n beyond_o what_o be_v in_o his_o word_n sometime_o when_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n do_v open_a the_o threaten_n that_o be_v in_o god_n word_n you_o think_v that_o they_o be_v terrible_a but_o know_v that_o god_n in_o the_o treasury_n of_o his_o judgement_n have_v more_o dreadful_a thing_n than_o ever_o yet_o have_v be_v reveal_v in_o his_o word_n and_o therefore_o learn_v to_o tremble_v not_o only_o at_o what_o be_v reveal_v in_o god_n word_n against_o thy_o sin_n but_o tremble_v at_o what_o there_o be_v in_o that_o infinite_a justice_n power_n and_o wisdom_n of_o god_n to_o find_v out_o and_o execute_v upon_o sinner_n for_o thou_o be_v a_o sinner_n and_o especial_o if_o thou_o be_v a_o bold_a and_o presumptuous_a sinner_n thou_o may_v i_o say_v expect_v to_o meet_v with_o whatsoever_o evil_a a_o infinite_a wisdom_n be_v able_a to_o devise_v and_o that_o a_o infinite_a power_n be_v able_a to_o bring_v upon_o thou_o that_o thou_o be_v capable_a of_o thou_o commit_v such_o and_o such_o a_o sin_n perhaps_o thou_o do_v not_o know_v of_o any_o particular_a judgement_n that_o be_v threaten_v against_o it_o but_o think_v thus_o i_o that_o do_v provoke_v god_n by_o my_o sin_n what_o may_v i_o look_v for_o it_o be_v more_o than_o i_o know_v to_o the_o contrary_a but_o that_o whatsoever_o the_o infinite_a wisdom_n of_o god_n be_v

observation_n be_v this_o that_o god_n be_v very_o quick_a with_o some_o in_o the_o way_n of_o his_o judgement_n it_o may_v be_v he_o may_v spare_v other_o for_o a_o long_a time_n but_o concern_v thou_o he_o may_v say_v thou_o shall_v not_o offend_v twice_o if_o thou_o will_v venture_v the_o first_o act_n god_n may_v strike_v thou_o with_o death_n he_o do_v so_o here_o with_o nadab_n and_o abihu_n for_o they_o be_v but_o new_o consecrate_v so_o i_o find_v it_o by_o interpreter_n that_o they_o be_v to_o be_v in_o consecration_n for_o seven_o day_n and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o day_n that_o they_o come_v to_o their_o place_n and_o in_o the_o very_a first_o act_n that_o they_o do_v god_n do_v smite_v they_o let_v we_o tremble_v the_o lord_n be_v quick_a towards_o some_o he_o be_v patient_a towards_o other_o but_o do_v not_o thou_o presume_v because_o he_o be_v patient_a to_o other_o he_o may_v take_v thou_o in_o the_o very_a first_o act_n of_o thy_o sin_n and_o be_v quick_a with_o thou_o the_o ten_o note_n be_v this_o that_o the_o holiness_n of_o a_o duty_n will_v never_o bear_v a_o man_n out_o in_o the_o miscarriage_n of_o it_o this_o be_v a_o holy_a duty_n they_o be_v the_o true_a priest_n of_o god_n they_o come_v to_o offer_v incense_n to_o the_o true_a god_n it_o be_v right_a incense_n that_o they_o offer_v there_o be_v but_o this_o one_o miscarriage_n they_o have_v not_o the_o same_o fire_n that_o god_n will_v have_v now_o this_o miscarriage_n god_n come_v upon_o they_o for_o and_o all_o the_o good_a there_o be_v in_o the_o duty_n it_o will_v not_o bear_v they_o out_o consider_v of_o this_o you_o that_o perform_v many_o holy_a duty_n take_v heed_n of_o give_v way_n to_o yourselves_o in_o
maker_n so_o in_o psal_n 100_o 2._o let_v we_o come_v before_o his_o presence_n with_o sing_v for_o that_o be_v one_o part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n but_o the_o scripture_n be_v plain_a that_o there_o be_v a_o special_a come_n before_o god_n when_o we_o be_v come_v to_o worship_n he_o and_o in_o this_o respect_n the_o servant_n of_o god_n in_o psal_n 148._o 14._o be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o people_n near_o to_o god_n it_o be_v a_o very_a remarkable_a expression_n and_o set_v forth_o much_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n there_o be_v the_o commendation_n of_o the_o

the_o saint_n of_o god_n the_o child_n of_o israel_n the_o church_n of_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o people_n near_o to_o god_n why_o near_o he_o because_o that_o they_o worship_n god_n they_o be_v much_o exercise_v in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n this_o be_v one_o respect_n though_o there_o may_v be_v divers_a other_o mention_v yet_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o come_n so_o much_o before_o god_n in_o his_o worship_n therefore_o they_o be_v near_o god_n quest_n near_o he_o why_o in_o what_o respect_n may_v a_o man_n be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n when_o he_o worship_n he_o answ_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v there_o be_v three_o respect_n in_o which_o a_o man_n when_o he_o be_v worship_v god_n may_v be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n first_o because_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n and_o service_n unto_o he_o that_o be_v due_a from_o we_o as_o creature_n to_o the_o infinite_a creator_n that_o be_v the_o very_a end_n of_o worship_n if_o you_o will_v know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n it_o be_v this_o you_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n and_o respect_n that_o be_v due_a from_o the_o creature_n to_o the_o creator_n now_o when_o a_o subject_a come_v to_o tender_v up_o his_o homage_n to_o his_o prince_n he_o come_v towards_o he_o when_o he_o do_v it_o immediate_o so_o we_o have_v none_o to_o tender_v it_o up_o by_o but_o jesus_n christ_n and_o when_o we_o tender_v it_o up_o we_o must_v come_v ourselves_o too_o for_o christ_n do_v nor_o take_v our_o service_n and_o tender_v it_o up_o to_o god_n and_o we_o be_v absent_a but_o we_o must_v come_v with_o christ_n and_o christ_n take_v we_o by_o the_o hand_n and_o so_o tender_v it_o up_o to_o the_o father_n while_o we_o be_v in_o presence_n so_o that_o we_o be_v say_v to_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o that_o respect_n because_o of_o the_o immediate_a tender_v up_o of_o that_o worship_n of_o we_o to_o god_n i_o call_v it_o immediate_a in_o respect_n of_o any_o creature_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o christ_n indeed_o he_o be_v a_o mediator_n to_o do_v it_o but_o yet_o he_o do_v it_o in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n and_o we_o have_v to_o do_v with_o none_o but_o god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o tender_v up_o of_o our_o worship_n to_o he_o we_o may_v make_v use_n of_o a_o institution_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v but_o we_o do_v not_o tender_v up_o our_o worship_n to_o god_n through_o that_o creature_n but_o in_o the_o use_n of_o that_o creature_n we_o do_v come_v to_o god_n and_o our_o soul_n be_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o respect_n we_o owe_v to_o god_n immediate_o therefore_o in_o levit_fw-la 21._o 21._o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o priest_n in_o their_o sacrifice_n when_o they_o be_v to_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n no_o man_n that_o have_v a_o blemish_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o aaron_n the_o priest_n shall_v come_v nigh_o to_o offer_v the_o offering_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v by_o fire_n so_o that_o when_o any_o come_v to_o offer_v any_o offering_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v by_o fire_n it_o appear_v he_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n he_o come_v to_o bring_v a_o present_a to_o god_n therefore_o he_o come_v nigh_o so_o when_o we_o come_v to_o offer_v our_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n unto_o god_n we_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n to_o offer_v it_o be_v the_o offering_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n and_o that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n because_o the_o creature_n come_v to_o bring_v a_o present_a to_o god_n therefore_o he_o be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o and_o second_o the_o soul_n be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n because_o it_o do_v present_v its_o self_n before_o god_n in_o those_o way_n through_o which_o god_n do_v use_v to_o communicate_v his_o choice_n precious_a most_o excellent_a and_o glorious_a mercy_n to_o his_o people_n i_o say_v when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o set_v ourselves_o before_o god_n in_o those_o way_n that_o god_n do_v use_v to_o communicate_v the_o choice_n most_o excellent_a and_o glorious_a rich_a mercy_n that_o he_o have_v to_o communicate_v to_o his_o creature_n when_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o creature_n as_o meat_n and_o drink_n and_o our_o outward_a business_n we_o have_v to_o do_v with_o god_n in_o they_o but_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o present_v ourselves_o before_o he_o in_o those_o thing_n that_o he_o do_v use_v to_o let_v out_o himself_o through_o in_o a_o more_o special_a and_o glorious_a manner_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o his_o people_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o heaven_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o why_o those_o that_o be_v in_o heaven_n be_v say_v to_o live_v with_o god_n there_o they_o behold_v the_o face_n of_o god_n and_o be_v before_o he_o in_o a_o special_a manner_n therefore_o when_o christ_n teach_v we_o to_o pray_v he_o teach_v we_o to_o look_v up_o to_o heaven_n and_o to_o say_v our_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n etc._n etc._n now_o certain_o the_o essential_a presence_n of_o god_n be_v on_o earth_n as_o true_o and_o real_o as_o in_o heaven_n and_o god_n be_v not_o so_o as_o to_o have_v one_o part_n in_o one_o place_n and_o another_o in_o another_o but_o all_o god_n be_v in_o every_o place_n but_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o heaven_n it_o be_v because_o the_o lord_n make_v know_v himself_o there_o in_o a_o more_o glorious_a manner_n than_o in_o any_o other_o place_n and_o therefore_o heaven_n be_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n in_o a_o more_o special_a way_n now_o than_o if_o the_o communication_n of_o god_n unto_o a_o creature_n be_v enough_o to_o make_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n more_o special_a if_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v a_o creature_n to_o live_v with_o god_n and_o to_o be_v before_o his_o face_n because_o they_o be_v there_o where_o god_n do_v most_o communicate_v himself_o then_o certain_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o be_v near_o god_n and_o be_v with_o god_n because_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n be_v those_o mean_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v for_o the_o let_v out_o of_o himself_o in_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n to_o his_o people_n you_o may_v expect_v other_o manner_n of_o communication_n of_o god_n goodness_n through_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n than_o in_o any_o other_o way_n and_o that_o be_v the_o second_o respect_n wherein_o you_o may_v be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n three_o you_o may_v be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n because_o than_o we_o shall_v and_o if_o we_o worship_v god_n as_o we_o ought_v we_o do_v act_v our_o faith_n and_o humility_n and_o all_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n we_o do_v act_v they_o as_o it_o be_v upon_o god_n when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_v he_o that_o be_v require_v in_o every_o duty_n of_o worship_n that_o you_o shall_v stir_v up_o the_o faculty_n of_o your_o soul_n and_o all_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o you_o shall_v act_v they_o upon_o god_n when_o you_o be_v worship_v of_o he_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o come_v with_o grace_n when_o you_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n but_o there_o must_v be_v a_o act_n of_o that_o grace_n upon_o god_n and_o so_o we_o find_v in_o scripture_n that_o the_o act_n of_o

of_o a_o thing_n from_o a_o common_a use_n i_o be_o to_o worship_n god_n now_o i_o must_v labour_v to_o separate_v my_o heart_n from_o a_o common_a use_n at_o other_o time_n god_n give_v i_o liberty_n to_o let_v out_o my_o heart_n to_o common_a use_n but_o now_o when_o i_o come_v to_o worship_v he_o i_o must_v separate_v my_o heart_n from_o all_o common_a use_n that_o my_o heart_n may_v be_v

that_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o make_v time_n holy_a for_o the_o time_n that_o god_n make_v holy_a it_o be_v not_o holy_a because_o of_o the_o duty_n that_o i_o perform_v in_o it_o but_o the_o duty_n that_o i_o perform_v then_o be_v more_o acceptable_a because_o they_o be_v do_v in_o such_o a_o time_n and_o so_o that_o make_v a_o place_n holy_a not_o because_o it_o be_v appoint_v for_o holy_a

now_o though_o we_o can_v make_v our_o time_n holy_a in_o that_o second_o sense_n yet_o in_o the_o first_o it_o be_v time_n set_v apart_o for_o a_o holy_a use_n and_o in_o that_o regard_n it_o be_v

bring_v strange_a fire_n into_o god_n service_n what_o be_v that_o i_o find_v diverse_a writer_n speak_v upon_o this_o say_v ambrose_n lust_n and_o covetousness_n be_v this_o strange_a fire_n that_o which_o i_o will_v have_v you_o consider_v of_o be_v this_o above_o all_o strange_a fire_n take_v heed_n of_o the_o strange_a fire_n of_o passion_n and_o anger_n and_o especial_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o at_o any_o time_n when_o you_o find_v your_o heart_n heat_v and_o fire_v with_o anger_n when_o you_o be_v about_o to_o worship_n god_n remember_v this_o scripture_n nadab_n and_o

with_o strange_a fire_n perhaps_o your_o heart_n have_v be_v burn_v hot_a with_o passion_n when_o you_o have_v be_v come_v into_o god_n presence_n you_o be_v to_o pray_v with_o fervency_n for_o so_o the_o scripture_n say_v we_o be_v indeed_o to_o be_v heat_n in_o prayer_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o our_o heart_n but_o certain_o not_o to_o come_v with_o the_o fire_n of_o passion_n and_o anger_n lift_v up_o your_o hand_n without_o wrath_n and_o doubt_v if_o you_o have_v be_v passionate_a and_o your_o heart_n have_v be_v heat_n that_o way_n be_v sure_a you_o get_v your_o heart_n cold_a before_o you_o go_v to_o prayer_n and_o so_o when_o you_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n if_o your_o heart_n have_v be_v heat_n with_o passion_n be_v sure_a you_o get_v they_o cold_a before_o you_o

with_o wrath_n and_o malice_n for_o than_o you_o come_v but_o to_o offer_v strange_a fire_n it_o be_v a_o special_a consideration_n for_o minister_n that_o come_v to_o preach_v they_o shall_v take_v

preacher_n for_o the_o lord_n send_v his_o preacher_n to_o make_v know_v his_o wrath_n against_o man_n sin_n but_o now_o the_o more_o they_o make_v know_v his_o wrath_n the_o more_o they_o shall_v
