A86421 A garden inclosed, and Wisdom justified only of her children. Being two exercises, discovering the glory, beauty and perfection of the love of God to saints that are so comprehended, and in such a glorious inclosure: and also the sweet reflections in, and from saints, in iustifying wisdom: which were delivered at New-port Pagnell, about a yeare and a half since: for declaration whereof, the authour was then imprisoned, and since accused, for delivering of blasphemie. by Paul Hobson.

every_o beam_n be_v like_o its_o own_o body_n so_o it_o be_v here_o that_o love_n that_o be_v in_o a_o saint_n to_o christ_n it_o be_v but_o a_o son_n 4.9.10_o 1_o joh._n 4.9.10_o it_o be_v but_o a_o

that_o christ_n church_n be_v a_o enclose_a garden_n we_o may_v in_o the_o way_n of_o use_n of_o this_o consectarie_n come_v a_o little_a to_o parallel_v the_o church_n of_o england_n with_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n use_v and_o whether_o that_o be_v a_o enclose_a garden_n or_o a_o confuse_a wilderness_n i_o leave_v to_o you_o to_o judge_v for_o look_v upon_o the_o church_n of_o england_n as_o a_o national_a church_n so_o consider_v it_o be_v that_o which_o rather_o breed_v and_o bring_v forth_o that_o which_o oppose_v and_o endeavour_n to_o destroy_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n the_o lily_n of_o christ_n then_o any_o way_n look_n with_o a_o face_n like_o christ_n himself_o and_o what_o we_o may_v say_v of_o a_o nationall_n church_n we_o may_v say_v the_o same_o of_o a_o parochial_a church_n but_o i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o of_o that_o thing_n but_o only_o this_o that_o christ_n church_n be_v a_o enclose_a garden_n the_o second_o consectarie_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o second_o thing_n 2._o consect_n 2._o which_o be_v this_o that_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n may_v fit_o be_v call_v a_o garden_n because_o there_o be_v more_o special_a fruit_n there_o then_o elsewhere_o thence_o observe_v this_o consectarie_n that_o the_o fruit_n in_o a_o saint_n place_v thereby_o jesus_n christ_n they_o be_v choice_a fruit_n the_o high_a title_n that_o christ_n can_v

those_o fruit_n that_o grow_v and_o live_v in_o a_o saint_n i_o say_v here_o as_o i_o say_v before_o there_o be_v common_a fruit_n in_o common_a field_n but_o your_o choice_a fruit_n be_v in_o your_o garden_n man_n go_v to_o refresh_v their_o spirit_n with_o a_o sight_n of_o lily_n and_o rose_n and_o other_o choice_a fruit_n in_o enclose_a garden_n behold_v if_o you_o will_v look_v upon_o the_o

these_o day_n when_o there_o be_v so_o much_o light_n copper_n shall_v go_v for_o the_o pure_a gold_n my_o meaning_n be_v that_o common_a borrow_a religion_n shall_v be_v own_v as_o the_o religion_n that_o christ_n himself_o own_v but_o i_o shall_v not_o at_o this_o time_n large_o express_v myself_o in_o this_o thing_n only_o thus_o much_o take_v notice_n of_o that_o there_o be_v a_o religion_n consider_v only_o in_o reference_n to_o reason_n a_o religion_n in_o reference_n to_o a_o law_n without_o and_o not_o a_o law_n and_o love_n within_o a_o religion_n in_o reference_n to_o a_o letter_n when_o man_n endeavour_v by_o the_o strength_n of_o religion_n to_o find_v out_o the_o spirit_n and_o there_o religion_n be_v not_o produce_v by_o be_v find_v out_o by_o the_o spirit_n itself_o and_o that_o cause_v all_o the_o confusion_n that_o be_v nowadays_o in_o the_o world_n for_o if_o reason_n go_v to_o trade_n with_o law_n and_o letter_n it_o convert_v both_o law_n and_o letter_n into_o no_o high_a glory_n than_o into_o the_o light_n of_o itself_o and_o all_o the_o fruit_n that_o be_v in_o such_o a_o man_n spirit_n consider_v in_o every_o act_n of_o religion_n it_o be_v poor_a it_o

quest._n i_o answer_v i_o call_v it_o so_o in_o reference_n to_o man_n answ_n and_o not_o to_o god_n if_o you_o ask_v i_o what_o i_o mean_v by_o a_o religion_n in_o reference_n to_o reason_n law_n quest._n and_o letter_n answ_n 1_o be_v what_o religion_n in_o reference_n to_o reason_n be_v in_o a_o word_n i_o answer_v thus_o first_o for_o that_o religion_n which_o be_v in_o reference_n to_o reason_n it_o be_v when_o reason_n be_v the_o high_a light_n that_o a_o man_n enjoy_v and_o that_o reason_n be_v put_v forth_o as_o in_o direct_v man_n so_o in_o convict_v when_o man_n vary_v from_o

as_o religion_n which_o be_v mere_a civility_n be_v 2._o what_o religion_n in_o reference_n to_o a_o law_n without_o and_o not_o within_o be_v second_o for_o that_o religion_n
say_v no_o more_o of_o this_o thing_n the_o next_o consectarie_n do_v arise_v from_o the_o second_o thing_n 2._o consect_n 2._o why_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v call_v christ_n garden_n which_o be_v because_o they_o be_v enclose_v in_o he_o from_o thence_o observe_v this_o consectarie_n that_o it_o be_v the_o privilege_n of_o the_o saint_n not_o only_o to_o be_v of_o but_o actual_o and_o

be_v use_v 1_o why_o few_o man_n understand_v the_o life_n of_o a_o saint_n it_o be_v because_o they_o go_v to_o understand_v it_o where_o it_o be_v not_o every_o thing_n be_v understand_v right_o

15.14.15_o joh._n 15.14.15_o second_o that_o it_o be_v as_o the_o property_n doct._n 2_o so_o the_o privilege_n of_o the_o friend_n of_o christ_n to_o hearken_v to_o christ_n 10.3_o joh._n 10.3_o

shall_v come_v to_o speak_v something_o of_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o acknowledgement_n acknowledgement_n 3_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o acknowledgement_n of_o the_o free_a and_o friendly_a spirit_n that_o do_v appear_v in_o the_o spouse_n whilst_o she_o acknowledge_v christ_n but_o i_o pass_v that_o over_o and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o the_o second_o thing_n in_o the_o word_n which_o be_v the_o sweet_a desire_n thirst_v 2_o the_o desire_n or_o thirst_v or_o thirst_v of_o the_o spouse_n in_o these_o word_n cause_v i_o to_o hear_v it_o wherein_o you_o may_v observe_v these_o thing_n first_o

9.10_o psal_n 9.10_o second_o from_o that_o which_o lie_v in_o the_o conjunction_n between_o the_o acknowledgement_n and_o the_o desire_n in_o these_o word_n the_o companion_n hearken_v to_o thy_o

christ_n behold_v christ_n beget_v and_o cause_v the_o soul_n according_a to_o its_o behold_v to_o act_v towards_o christ_n and_o so_o i_o pass_v over_o that_o three_o you_o may_v consider_v the_o

observe_v this_o conclusion_n that_o to_o make_v a_o soul_n hearken_v to_o christ_n doct._n be_v the_o sole_a work_n of_o christ_n himself_o and_o then_o from_o that_o which_o be_v express_v in_o these_o word_n cause_v i_o to_o hear_v it_o from_o thence_o observe_v first_o that_o to_o hearken_v to_o christ_n be_v a_o matter_n worth_n desire_v doct._n 1_o second_o that_o no_o soul_n do_v right_o understand_v what_o it_o be_v to_o hearken_v to_o christ_n but_o know_v doct._n 2_o and_o in_o its_o know_v do_v acknowledge_v that_o all_o power_n be_v from_o christ_n and_o in_o this_o
