the_o lamb_n be_v the_o light_n of_o it_o he_o give_v we_o the_o reason_n why_o all_o outward_a help_n and_o mean_n be_v of_o no_o use_n there_o it_o be_v not_o because_o there_o be_v no_o service_n of_o god_n use_v there_o for_o they_o shall_v sing_v praise_n to_o he_o without_o cease_v nor_o it_o be_v not_o because_o man_n there_o shall_v be_v deprive_v of_o life_n and_o strength_n and_o vigour_n for_o there_o they_o never_o die_v nor_o never_o hunger_n nor_o never_o faint_v but_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o god_n and_o his_o son_n christ_n shall_v without_o any_o mean_n supply_v all_o good_a thing_n unto_o they_o by_o virtue_n derive_v immediate_o from_o themselves_o and_o that_o in_o a_o more_o plentiful_a and_o more_o excellent_a sort_n than_o all_o secondary_a mean_n or_o cause_n can_v do_v this_o also_o be_v further_o signify_v by_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n where_o he_o say_v that_o christ_n shall_v deliver_v up_o his_o kingdom_n to_o god_n and_o shall_v himself_o be_v subject_a unto_o god_n that_o god_n may_v be_v all_o in_o all_o 1_o cor._n 15.24_o 28._o that_o be_v christ_n shall_v cease_v to_o govern_v his_o church_n in_o that_o manner_n of_o

glory_n and_o in_o the_o state_n of_o heavenly_a blessedness_n we_o enjoy_v god_n immediate_o both_o in_o respect_n of_o presence_n and_o in_o respect_n of_o influence_n c._n three_o i_o say_v yet_o further_o that_o this_o immediate_a fruition_n of_o god_n suppli_v unto_o the_o bless_a all_o good_a thing_n and_o expel_v or_o drive_v away_o all_o evil_a this_o the_o scripture_n say_v also_o s._n john_n say_v of_o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n that_o god_n shall_v wipe_v away_o all_o tear_n from_o their_o eye_n and_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o death_n neither_o sorrow_n nor_o cry_v neither_o shall_v there_o be_v any_o more_o pain_n apoc._n 21.4_o by_o this_o he_o signify_v the_o remove_n of_o all_o evil_a or_o whatsoever_o may_v hurt_v or_o afflict_v he_o go_v on_o and_o ver_fw-la 6._o i_o say_v the_o great_a king_n will_v give_v unto_o he_o that_o be_v a_o thirst_n of_o the_o fountain_n of_o the_o water_n of_o life_n free_o he_o that_o overcom_v shall_v inherit_v all_o thing_n and_o i_o will_v be_v his_o god_n and_o he_o shall_v be_v my_o son_n meaning_n that_o he_o will_v give_v he_o all_o thing_n necessary_a for_o blessedness_n and_o a_o happy_a life_n and_o from_o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o in_o the_o blessedness_n of_o heaven_n there_o be_v neither_o want_n of_o good_a nor_o presence_n of_o any_o evil_n and_o now_o these_o particular_n lay_v together_o the_o sum_n of_o they_o gather_v into_o one_o be_v that_o the_o true_a blessedness_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n communicate_v to_o the_o saint_n be_v a_o immediate_a fruition_n of_o god_n of_o and_o by_o himself_o supply_v all_o good_a thing_n and_o expelling_a or_o drive_v away_o all_o evil_a thing_n and_o this_o may_v serve_v for_o clear_v of_o the_o first_o question_n 2._o quest_n the_o second_o be_v why_o this_o blessedness_n be_v ascribe_v or_o appropriate_v to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n answ_n to_o which_o question_n my_o answer_n be_v blessedness_n be_v ascribe_v to_o holiness_n or_o god_n service_n partly_o because_o holiness_n be_v a_o necessary_a condition_n for_o qualify_a of_o those_o person_n which_o shall_v enjoy_v it_o and_o partly_o because_o it_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o cause_n that_o do_v effect_n or_o procure_v it_o 1._o it_o be_v a_o necessary_a condition_n etc._n etc._n for_o so_o the_o apostle_n teach_v we_o when_o he_o say_v without_o holiness_n no_o man_n shall_v see_v the_o lord_n i_o as_o before_o i_o explain_v the_o word_n no_o man_n shall_v enjoy_v god_n in_o his_o glorious_a presence_n heb._n 12.6_o and_o so_o s._n john_n bless_v be_v

do_v his_o commandment_n that_o they_o may_v have_v right_a etc._n etc._n he_o intimate_v that_o obedience_n to_o god_n will_v be_v a_o condition_n upon_o supposal_n whereof_o man_n may_v attain_v this_o blessedness_n and_o 2._o when_o he_o say_v for_o without_o be_v sorcerer_n etc._n etc._n he_o tell_v we_o in_o plain_a term_n that_o no_o wicked_a man_n shall_v ever_o enter_v into_o heaven_n 2._o holiness_n and_o god_n service_n be_v a_o kind_n of_o cause_n that_o procure_v this_o blessedness_n for_o they_o that_o serve_v god_n a_o kind_n of_o cause_n i_o call_v it_o by_o way_n of_o qualification_n or_o diminution_n because_o it_o be_v neither_o any_o proper_a efficient_a cause_n which_o by_o virtue_n in_o itself_o may_v effect_v it_o nor_o any_o meritorious_a cause_n which_o by_o its_o worthiness_n can_v deserve_v it_o and_o yet_o a_o cause_n it_o be_v because_o it_o be_v a_o outward_a object_n which_o move_v god_n for_o his_o promise_n sake_n to_o confer_v heaven_n and_o happiness_n upon_o they_o that_o do_v serve_v he_o and_o keep_v his_o commandment_n this_o the_o logician_n call_v causa_fw-la procatar●tic●_n or_o a_o moral_a cause_n which_o work_v by_o way_n of_o object_n and_o i_o do_v therefore_o call_v it_o a_o kind_n of_o cause_n because_o i_o be_o so_o warrant_v by_o the_o apostle_n who_o speak_v of_o affliction_n bear_v with_o patience_n and_o obedience_n to_o god_n will_v say_v of_o it_o that_o it_o work_v for_o we_o a_o far_o more_o exceed_a and_o eternal_a weight_n of_o glory_n 2_o cor._n 4.17_o and_o if_o patience_n in_o affliction_n do_v this_o no_o man_n may_v deny_v the_o like_a to_o all_o other_o part_n of_o obedience_n and_o if_o they_o may_v be_v say_v to_o work_v for_o we_o eternal_a glory_n than_o no_o man_n may_v hinder_v i_o to_o say_v that_o they_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o cause_n to_o procure_v this_o glory_n i_o conclude_v then_o that_o god_n service_n be_v both_o a_o necessary_a condition_n and_o a_o kind_n of_o a_o cause_n to_o procure_v blessedness_n and_o therefore_o to_o it_o blessedness_n be_v right_o ascribe_v and_o so_o the_o second_o question_n be_v answer_v 3._o quest_n the_o three_o question_n be_v how_o may_v man_n be_v say_v to_o be_v bless_v in_o this_o life_n in_o which_o we_o be_v absent_a from_o the_o lord_n and_o enjoy_v he_o not_o in_o such_o immediate_a sort_n as_o have_v be_v say_v

serve_v first_o to_o set_v a_o edge_n on_o our_o zeal_n and_o to_o make_v we_o in_o love_n with_o heaven_n and_o eternal_a life_n because_o here_o be_v such_o thing_n as_o man_n do_v desire_n and_o seek_v after_o 1._o for_o first_o man_n desire_v wealth_n and_o land_n and_o abundance_n of_o needful_a and_o useful_a thing_n the_o labourer_n carry_v heavy_a burden_n and_o sweat_v under_o his_o

and_o they_o do_v it_o to_o obtain_v a_o corruptible_a treasure_n but_o the_o blessedness_n we_o have_v speak_v of_o hitherto_o have_v plenty_n of_o all_o good_a thing_n without_o lack_n without_o

that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o crown_n of_o glory_n lay_v up_o in_o heaven_n for_o they_o that_o serve_v god_n aright_o style_v god_n by_o the_o name_n of_o a_o righteous_a or_o just_a

6.10_o where_o 1_o when_o he_o say_v that_o god_n do_v not_o forget_v their_o good_a work_n he_o mean_v that_o he_o leave_v they_o not_o unrewarded_a and_o 2._o when_o he_o say_v that_o god_n be_v

the_o wrong_a oppressure_n of_o persecutor_n and_o evil_a doer_n be_v it_o grant_v then_o that_o a_o reward_n be_v due_a to_o well-doing_n by_o virtue_n of_o god_n promise_n who_o for_o our_o encouragement_n have_v tie_v himself_o by_o this_o bond_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o there_o be_v no_o merit_n or_o worth_n in_o our_o best_a work_n by_o which_o we_o may_v lay_v claim_n to_o such_o a_o reward_n this_o be_v clear_a by_o the_o word_n of_o a_o s._n paul_n who_o speak_v of_o martyrdom_n and_o patience_n in_o persecution_n for_o christ_n sake_n which_o be_v one_o of_o the_o

be_v there_o that_o do_v so_o but_o upon_o supposition_n that_o we_o have_v do_v all_o yet_o he_o teach_v we_o to_o say_v unto_o god_n we_o be_v unprofitable_a servant_n we_o do_v that_o which_o be_v

the_o reward_n of_o blessedness_n promise_v to_o well-doing_n be_v due_a by_o god_n promise_n and_o not_o for_o the_o worth_n of_o any_o work_n and_o now_o out_o of_o all_o these_o thing_n lay_v together_o the_o conclusion_n follow_v which_o i_o propound_v in_o the_o beginning_n that_o the_o keep_n of_o god_n word_n be_v available_a to_o happiness_n as_o a_o service_n to_o which_o eternal_a life_n be_v promise_v for_o a_o reward_n and_o hence_o we_o have_v these_o deduction_n for_o our_o further_a use_n 1._o see_v holiness_n be_v a_o necessary_a condition_n require_v unto_o blessedness_n this_o may_v be_v for_o a_o admonition_n to_o all_o evil_a doer_n who_o live_v in_o any_o sin_n against_o conscience_n they_o may_v hence_o take_v notice_n how_o fearful_a their_o state_n be_v for_o
