join_v his_o word_n and_o his_o spirit_n together_o by_o which_o as_o by_o a_o true_a tuchstone_n all_o false_a love_n be_v discern_v from_o true_a love_n and_o all_o false_a peace_n and_o false_a joy_n be_v try_v from_o true_a peace_n and_o true_a joy_n and_o so_o of_o the_o rest_n and_o therefore_o be_v the_o word_n call_v the_o sword_n of_o the_o spirit_n because_o it_o do_v not_o try_v 17._o nothing_o nor_o work_v any_o thing_n ordinary_o but_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o last_o of_o all_o lest_o satan_n shall_v abuse_v &_o delude_v the_o child_n of_o god_n with_o the_o manifold_a corruption_n imperfection_n and_o rebellious_a thought_n of_o their_o heart_n and_o make_v they_o conclude_v thereupon_o that_o they_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n they_o be_v to_o know_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o elect_a be_v not_o always_o feel_v in_o themselves_o nor_o perceive_v in_o they_o by_o other_o in_o a_o like_a measure_n but_o it_o be_v in_o they_o as_o the_o sun_n which_o sometime_o shine_v and_o send_v forth_o her_o light_n disperse_v the_o cloud_n and_o sometime_o again_o be_v hide_v under_o the_o cloud_n it_o be_v in_o they_o as_o the_o ebb_a and_o flow_v of_o the_o sea_n it_o be_v in_o they_o as_o the_o wax_a and_o wane_v of_o the_o moon_n it_o be_v in_o they_o as_o the_o fire_n when_o it_o be_v kindle_v and_o when_o it_o be_v rake_v up_o in_o the_o ash_n and_o it_o be_v within_o they_o as_o the_o sap_n of_o the_o tree_n be_v in_o winter_n and_o summer_n sometime_o in_o all_o the_o branch_n and_o sometime_o go_v to_o the_o root_n and_o as_o the_o elect_n be_v like_o tree_n plant_v by_o the_o water_n side_n which_o do_v bring_v forth_o fruit_n in_o due_a season_n 3._o so_o the_o same_o tree_n have_v both_o a_o summer_n and_o a_o winter_v a_o spring_n time_n and_o a_o fall_n of_o the_o leaf_n when_o winter_n come_v they_o seem_v as_o though_o they_o be_v dead_a but_o in_o summer_n they_o shall_v wax_v fresh_a and_o green_a again_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o elect_a child_n of_o god_n be_v likewise_o like_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o tree_n which_o be_v first_o in_o the_o sap_n only_o than_o it_o come_v into_o bud_n and_o then_o into_o blossom_n whereof_o some_o be_v smite_v with_o blast_v some_o be_v nip_v with_o frost_n &_o cold_a &_o some_o be_v eat_v with_o worm_n but_o if_o they_o escape_v all_o these_o then_o from_o blossom_n they_o come_v to_o be_v appl_n and_o at_o the_o first_o they_o be_v green_a and_o lovely_a and_o many_o do_v lust_n to_o eat_v of_o they_o but_o they_o be_v still_o hard_a and_o harsh_a but_o in_o time_n they_o come_v to_o their_o full_a growth_n and_o when_o they_o be_v ripe_a then_o be_v they_o either_o shake_v down_o with_o the_o wind_n and_o swine_n devour_v they_o or_o beat_v down_o with_o cudgel_n and_o thief_n do_v steal_v they_o or_o if_o they_o be_v fair_o gather_v yet_o be_v they_o pluck_v from_o the_o tree_n that_o have_v bear_v they_o then_o be_v they_o buy_v and_o sell_v whereof_o some_o perish_v and_o be_v cast_v out_o of_o door_n the_o fair_a and_o the_o sweet_a be_v bring_v either_o to_o fire_n to_o be_v roast_v or_o to_o the_o board_n to_o be_v pare_v and_o cut_v in_o piece_n and_o so_o to_o be_v eat_v then_o the_o tree_n be_v naked_a and_o seem_v to_o be_v dead_a but_o the_o next_o spring_n do_v fetch_v all_o again_o so_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o adopt_a child_n of_o god_n first_o in_o the_o sap_n of_o faith_n only_o which_o be_v hide_v in_o the_o heart_n than_o it_o come_v into_o good_a thought_n then_o into_o good_a word_n then_o into_o good_a work_n by_o degree_n but_o many_o time_n they_o be_v nip_v and_o smite_v in_o the_o bud_n or_o in_o the_o blossom_n that_o be_v either_o in_o thought_n or_o word_n that_o they_o never_o come_v into_o work_n the_o work_n likewise_o of_o the_o godly_a be_v at_o the_o first_o fair_a and_o fresh_a but_o yet_o hard_a and_o harsh_a and_o when_o they_o be_v come_v to_o any_o perfection_n they_o be_v either_o wind-shaken_a and_o devour_v by_o beast_n or_o smite_v with_o persecution_n then_o be_v they_o buy_v and_o sell_v and_o every_o man_n handle_v they_o as_o they_o listen_v in_o a_o word_n the_o fair_a the_o pleasant_a and_o the_o best_a of_o our_o work_n must_v be_v pare_v and_o pick_v for_o dainty_a mouth_n and_o queasy_a stomach_n and_o in_o the_o end_n consume_v of_o all_o and_o then_o be_v our_o labour_n come_v to_o their_o perfection_n wherhe_a they_o be_v of_o church_n or_o commonwealth_n and_o then_o do_v many_o of_o god_n child_n think_v themselves_o naked_a and_o dead_a but_o there_o be_v no_o cause_n why_o they_o shall_v for_o as_o all_o that_o fruit_n when_o it_o be_v so_o and_o so_o handle_v do_v prove_v that_o sap_n be_v in_o the_o tree_n so_o all_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o elect_a whether_o they_o perishin_fw-mi the_o bud_n or_o in_o the_o blossom_n or_o in_o the_o ripen_n or_o howsoever_o they_o be_v handle_v yet_o they_o prove_v that_o the_o sap_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v in_o they_o and_o the_o next_o spring_n of_o god_n grace_n will_v fetch_v all_o again_o but_o then_o they_o doubt_v of_o themselves_o because_o perhaps_o they_o have_v not_o so_o much_o fruit_n as_o they_o have_v or_o so_o much_o as_o other_o have_v but_o there_o be_v no_o cause_n why_o they_o shall_v doubt_v of_o themselves_o for_o though_o they_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o they_o have_v yet_o it_o be_v as_o good_a and_o sound_a as_o that_o which_o they_o have_v it_o be_v not_o counterfeit_a and_o feign_a but_o it_o be_v in_o truth_n that_o which_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v and_o so_o long_o they_o may_v care_v but_o they_o need_v not_o to_o fear_v the_o want_n of_o god_n spirit_n in_o they_o for_o it_o be_v not_o so_o material_a how_o much_o faith_n or_o how_o much_o zeal_n or_o how_o much_o love_n or_o how_o much_o patience_n a_o man_n have_v but_o how_o good_a faith_n how_o good_a zeal_n how_o good_a love_n &_o how_o good_a patience_n a_o man_n have_v whether_o the_o faith_n love_n zeal_n etc._n etc._n be_v true_a or_o counterfeit_v from_o the_o heart_n or_o in_o hypocrisy_n must_v be_v the_o question_n that_o as_o man_n say_v of_o fruit_n this_o be_v but_o little_a but_o it_o be_v good_a here_o be_v not_o many_o of_o they_o but_o those_o that_o be_v of_o they_o be_v very_o dainty_a they_o be_v right_a of_o such_o and_o such_o a_o kind_n so_o the_o child_n of_o god_n may_v say_v my_o faith_n be_v but_o little_a and_o weak_a my_o love_n be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o i_o will_v it_o be_v my_o zeal_n be_v but_o little_a and_o my_o patience_n be_v but_o small_a but_o it_o be_v true_a faith_n and_o true_a love_n and_o true_a zeal_n and_o true_a patience_n even_o from_o the_o very_a heart_n root_n without_o dissemble_v o_o lord_n increase_v it_o and_o strengthen_v it_o and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o child_n of_o god_n by_o creation_n only_o and_o the_o child_n of_o god_n both_o by_o creation_n and_o adoption_n and_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n both_o in_o the_o one_o and_o in_o the_o other_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o matter_n in_o hand_n we_o have_v hear_v who_o be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n how_o this_o title_n be_v give_v to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n how_o to_o angel_n and_o how_o to_o man_n have_v be_v also_o declare_v but_o to_o imagine_v that_o in_o this_o place_n it_o be_v speak_v to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v no_o less_o than_o blasphemy_n because_o he_o be_v ever_o without_o sin_n and_o to_o inquire_v whether_o it_o be_v speak_v to_o the_o angel_n or_o no_o be_v vain_a curiosity_n now_o if_o it_o be_v man_n to_o who_o the_o lord_n say_v my_o son_n as_o it_o be_v indeed_o o_o lord_n what_o be_v man_n that_o thou_o do_v speak_v so_o kind_o to_o he_o or_o the_o son_n of_o man_n that_o thou_o do_v so_o regard_v he_o again_o if_o it_o be_v speak_v to_o man_n how_o be_v thou_o o_o man_n get_v into_o such_o favour_n with_o god_n which_o sometime_o thou_o have_v lose_v how_o happy_a and_o honourable_a be_v those_o man_n which_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o be_v it_o speak_v to_o i_o in_o deed_n what_o to_o sinful_a and_o miserable_a man_n and_o be_v the_o son_n of_o adam_n among_o the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o saul_n be_v among_o the_o prophet_n be_v the_o prodigal_a son_n come_v home_o again_o be_v it_o for_o he_o that_o such_o costly_a robe_n be_v bring_v forth_o and_o be_v it_o he_o that_o his_o father_n go_v out_o to_o meet_v
