glory_n which_o i_o have_v with_o thou_o before_o the_o world_n be_v so_o that_o the_o admire_v behold_v and_o magnify_v of_o god_n glory_n as_o much_o as_o may_v be_v labour_v to_o be_v like_o he_o be_v our_o glory_n and_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o beginning_n of_o this_o work_n in_o we_o by_o fear_n the_o second_o thing_n be_v to_o prove_v that_o this_o course_n be_v for_o our_o good_a and_o this_o appear_v two_o way_n 1._o in_o our_o justification_n 2._o in_o our_o sanctification_n for_o the_o first_o we_o be_v such_o stranger_n unto_o god_n that_o we_o will_v never_o come_v unto_o he_o till_o we_o see_v there_o be_v no_o other_o remedy_n be_v at_o the_o pit_n brink_n ready_a to_o starve_v hopeless_a of_o all_o other_o help_n be_v freeze_v in_o the_o dregs_o of_o sin_n delight_v in_o our_o way_n as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o prodigal_a son_n who_o will_v never_o think_v of_o any_o return_n to_o his_o father_n till_o all_o other_o help_v fail_v he_o money_z friend_n acquaintance_n and_o all_o sort_n of_o food_n nay_o if_o he_o may_v but_o have_v feed_v upon_o husk_n with_o the_o swine_n he_o will_v not_o have_v think_v of_o return_v any_o more_o unto_o his_o father_n but_o this_o be_v deny_v he_o the_o text_n say_v he_o then_o come_v to_o himself_o which_o show_v we_o that_o while_o man_n run_v on_o in_o sinful_a course_n they_o be_v mad_a man_n of_o themselves_o even_o as_o we_o see_v those_o in_o bedlam_n be_v beat_v and_o keep_v under_o and_o comfort_v deny_v they_o till_o they_o come_v to_o themselves_o and_o than_o what_o say_v he_o i_o will_v arise_v and_o go_v to_o my_o father_n confess_v that_o he_o have_v sin_v and_o i_o will_v say_v father_n i_o have_v sin_v etc._n etc._n 15._o luke_n so_o be_v it_o with_o we_o until_o the_o lord_n humble_v we_o and_o bring_v we_o low_o in_o our_o own_o eye_n show_v we_o our_o misery_n and_o sinful_a poverty_n and_o that_o in_o we_o there_o be_v no_o good_a thing_n that_o we_o be_v strip_v of_o all_o help_n in_o and_o without_o ourselves_o and_o must_v perish_v for_o ever_o unless_o we_o beg_v his_o mercy_n we_o will_v not_o come_v unto_o he_o as_o we_o see_v it_o be_v with_o the_o woman_n that_o christ_n heal_v of_o her_o bloody_a issue_n luke_n 8.43_o how_o long_o it_o be_v before_o she_o come_v to_o christ_n she_o have_v be_v sick_a twelve_o year_n she_o have_v spend_v all_o her_o substance_n upon_o physician_n and_o no_o body_n can_v help_v she_o and_o this_o extremity_n bring_v she_o to_o christ._n so_o that_o this_o be_v the_o mean_n to_o bring_v we_o unto_o christ_n to_o drive_v we_o on_o our_o knee_n hopeless_a as_o low_a as_o may_v be_v to_o show_v we_o where_o help_v only_o be_v to_o be_v find_v and_o make_v we_o run_v unto_o it_o thus_o therefore_o when_o man_n have_v no_o mind_n to_o come_v to_o christ_n he_o send_v as_o it_o be_v fiery_a serpent_n to_o sting_v they_o that_o they_o may_v look_v up_o unto_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n or_o rather_o unto_o christ_n jesus_n of_o which_o it_o be_v a_o type_n for_o help_v so_o unto_o other_o be_v stranger_n unto_o he_o he_o send_v variety_n of_o great_a and_o sore_a affliction_n to_o make_v they_o come_v to_o he_o that_o he_o may_v be_v acquaint_v with_o they_o as_o absolom_n set_v joabs_n corn_n on_o fire_n because_o he_o will_v not_o come_v at_o he_o be_v twice_o send_v for_o so_o god_n deal_v with_o we_o before_o our_o conversion_n many_o time_n as_o with_o iron_n whip_n lash_v we_o home_n turn_v loose_a the_o avenger_n of_o blood_n after_o we_o and_o then_o for_o our_o life_n we_o run_v and_o make_v haste_n to_o the_o city_n of_o refuge_n thus_o god_n shoot_v off_o as_o it_o be_v his_o great_a ordinance_n against_o we_o to_o make_v we_o run_v unto_o he_o thus_o john_n the_o baptist_n come_v preach_v of_o repentance_n in_o attire_n speech_n and_o diet_n all_o be_v strong_a and_o harsh_a clothe_v with_o a_o camel_n hair_n and_o with_o a_o

off_o to_o prepare_v the_o way_n show_v the_o king_n be_v a_o come_n and_o after_o the_o fire_n a_o still_o small_a voice_n and_o there_o the_o lord_n be_v so_o the_o lord_n rend_v tear_n and_o

second_o for_o our_o sanctification_n it_o be_v good_a for_o we_o that_o the_o comforter_n first_o work_n be_v to_o work_v fear_n in_o we_o for_o we_o be_v natural_o so_o freeze_v in_o our_o dregs_o that_o no_o fire_n in_o a_o manner_n will_v warm_v and_o thaw_v we_o we_o wallow_v in_o our_o blood_n and_o stick_v fast_o in_o the_o mire_n of_o sin_n that_o we_o can_v stir_v so_o that_o this_o fear_n be_v but_o to_o pull_v we_o from_o our_o corruption_n and_o make_v we_o more_o holy_a as_o we_o see_v if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o gangrene_n beginning_n in_o his_o hand_n or_o foot_n which_o may_v spread_v far_o and_o be_v his_o death_n if_o it_o continue_v so_o he_o be_v easy_o persuade_v to_o cut_v it_o off_o lest_o it_o shall_v go_v far_o so_o do_v god_n deal_v by_o we_o with_o this_o
