concern_v christ_n 1_o cant._n 12._o a_o bundle_n of_o mirth_n ●s_v my_o well_o belove_a to_o i_o he_o shall_v lie_v all_o night_n between_o my_o breast_n oh_o say_v the_o soul_n christ_n shall_v have_v the_o chief_a seat_n of_o residence_n in_o my_o heart_n and_o his_o law_n shall_v bear_v sway_n in_o my_o life_n what_o though_o i_o be_o imprison_v reproach_v disgrace_v count_v a_o fectious_a person_n one_o that_o trouble_v the_o state_n yet_o this_o be_v no_o trouble_n at_o all_o unto_o such_o a_o heart_n for_o he_o look_v up_o to_o christ_n desire_v with_o he_o to_o endure_v the_o cross_n and_o despise_v the_o shame_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a man_n heart_n be_v set_v upon_o the_o creature_n &_o their_o desire_n be_v set_v upon_o excellency_n here_o reject_v the_o excellency_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o profession_n of_o his_o truth_n 3._o rea._n and_o last_o why_o man_n in_o a_o external_a covenant_n with_o god_n those_o that_o god_n own_v as_o he_o may_v fall_v back_o &_o degenerate_a be_v because_o that_o man_n nay_o and_o they_o which_o have_v more_o in_o they_o then_o man_n even_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n themselves_o do_v neglect_v their_o spiritual_a watch_n they_o suffer_v their_o spirit_n to_o wander_v and_o then_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n that_o he_o who_o wander_v up_o &_o down_o the_o whole_a earth_n seek_v who_o he_o may_v devour_v do_v meet_v with_o this_o wander_a spirit_n and_o turn_v it_o out_o of_o the_o way_n and_o so_o we_o see_v david_n eye_n be_v wander_v upon_o bathsheba_n &_o satan_n soon_o catch_v he_o in_o a_o snare_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o 2_o sam._n 11.2.4_o these_o with_o many_o other_o reason_n may_v be_v lay_v down_o for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o this_o truth_n but_o i_o judge_v these_o may_v suffice_v the_o second_o thing_n observable_a from_o the_o word_n be_v the_o mean_n itself_o use_v by_o god_n to_o reduce_v they_o to_o their_o former_a state_n lay_v down_o in_o these_o word_n though_o she_o seek_v after_o her_o lover_n she_o shall_v not_o come_v as_o they_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v i_o will_v take_v a_o sure_a course_n with_o they_o to_o reclaim_v they_o to_o myself_o though_o she_o do_v go_v a_o whore_v after_o her_o lover_n and_o follow_v other_o god_n and_o love_v so_o to_o do_v she_o shall_v not_o find_v they_o that_o be_v she_o shall_v find_v no_o content_n nor_o satisfaction_n in_o they_o as_o former_o she_o have_v do_v from_o whence_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o when_o god_n intend_v to_o do_v any_o soul_n good_a either_o to_o reclaim_v they_o from_o a_o fall_v condition_n or_o to_o bring_v person_n to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o himself_o the_o usual_a way_n that_o he_o take_v herein_o be_v to_o discover_v to_o they_o the_o emptiness_n and_o insufficiency_n of_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v here_o below_o as_o not_o be_v able_a to_o give_v any_o content_n or_o satisfaction_n to_o the_o soul_n there_o be_v something_o of_o this_o truth_n i_o think_v appear_v in_o the_o 14._o vers_fw-la of_o this_o chapter_n where_o the_o lord_n say_v i_o will_v bring_v she_o into_o the_o wilderness_n now_o we_o know_v a_o wilderness_n condition_n be_v a_o condition_n destitute_a of_o all_o help_n nothing_o be_v to_o be_v find_v therein_o but_o wild_a beast_n ready_a to_o devour_v no_o help_n be_v to_o be_v expect_v in_o the_o wilderness_n from_o it_o so_o indeed_o when_o man_n be_v bring_v into_o a_o wilderness_n condition_n have_v neither_o penny_n nor_o penny_n worth_a as_o the_o prophet_n say_v esai_n 55.1_o then_o be_v god_n please_v to_o speak_v comfort_n to_o his_o people_n and_o then_o do_v he_o cause_v they_o to_o look_v upward_o but_o for_o full_a proof_n 3_o jerc._n 23._o see_v there_o the_o ground_n of_o their_o return_n to_o god_n true_o say_v they_o the_o hope_n of_o h●ls_n be_v but_o vain_a nor_o the_o multitude_n of_o mountain_n what_o then_o but_o in_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n be_v the_o health_n of_o jsrael_n when_o they_o be_v bring_v to_o see_v the_o strength_n of_o all_o thing_n to_o help_v they_o be_v but_o weakness_n than_o they_o cry_v in_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n be_v the_o health_n of_o israel_n so_o in_o 1_o ecles_n 1.2_o solomon_n after_o his_o set_v his_o heart_n to_o find_v out_o content_a in_o the_o creature_n and_o after_o his_o follow_v other_o god_n and_o forsake_v the_o lord_n who_o have_v appear_v twice_o unto_o he_o you_o shall_v find_v upon_o his_o return_n this_o be_v the_o account_n that_o he_o leave_v behind_o he_o all_o be_v vanity_n and_o vexation_n of_o spirit_n &_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n take_v such_o a_o course_n with_o man_n be_v because_o while_o the_o soul_n see_v any_o fullness_n in_o any_o thing_n in_o heaven_n or_o earth_n whereby_o to_o lean_v to_o beside_o christ_n it_o will_v fasten_v at_o the_o horn_n of_o that_o altar_n be_v it_o what_o it_o will_v and_o never_o make_v any_o further_a search_n or_o inquiry_n after_o christ_n the_o carriage_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o case_n be_v like_o the_o carriage_n of_o jacob_n in_o a_o other_o for_o while_o there_o be_v corn_n in_o canaan_n jacob_n never_o think_v nor_o mention_n go_v into_o egypt_n but_o when_o there_o be_v none_o there_o then_o say_v old_a jacob_n gene._n 42.2_o why_o gaze_v you_o one_o upon_o another_o see_v there_o be_v corn_n in_o egypt_n so_o in_o deed_n while_o there_o be_v any_o food_n to_o be_v get_v for_o the_o soul_n here_o below_o it_o look_v no_o high_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o lord_n be_v please_v to_o out_o off_o all_o spring_n of_o comfort_n and_o peace_n to_o be_v have_v from_o any_o thing_n here_o below_o that_o so_o the_o soul_n may_v see_v jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v he_o who_o have_v all_o the_o well-spring_n of_o comfort_n and_o peace_n and_o joy_n and_o refreshment_n to_o the_o soul_n 1._o use_v let_v we_o a_o little_a from_o the_o consideration_n of_o this_o doctrine_n examine_v our_o spirit_n and_o see_v how_o our_o heart_n stand_v affect_v or_o what_o our_o spirit_n be_v fraught_v with_o whether_o with_o high_a conceit_n of_o the_o world_n of_o the_o excellency_n and_o fullness_n and_o glory_n of_o it_o or_o whether_o with_o the_o excellent_a fullnes_n &_o goodness_n that_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n certain_o this_o be_v a_o undoubted_a truth_n that_o if_o any_o man_n love_v the_o world_n the_o love_n of_o the_o father_n be_v not_o in_o they_o let_v they_o profess_v what_o they_o will_v therefore_o it_o behoove_v every_o man_n to_o look_v about_o he_o and_o see_v whether_o god_n have_v ever_o yet_o make_v this_o discovery_n to_o the_o soul_n namely_o that_o all_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n be_v empry_a and_o poor_a &_o weak_a not_o able_a to_o give_v out_o the_o least_o dram_n of_o true_a comfort_n to_o the_o soul_n i_o beseech_v you_o let_v we_o again_o ask_v our_o heart_n this_o question_n as_o christ_n do_v in_o the_o like_a case_n be_v we_o able_a to_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n that_o christ_n have_v drink_v of_o and_o to_o be_v baptize_v with_o the_o baptism_n that_o christ_n be_v baptize_v with_o we_o do_v not_o know_v what_o employment_n christ_n may_v put_v we_o upon_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o that_o heart_n which_o be_v in_o the_o last_o engage_v to_o the_o world_n will_v never_o do_v any_o great_a matter_n for_o jesus_n christ_n he_o will_v play_v fast_o and_o loose_a with_o christ_n this_o we_o all_o profess_v to_o know_v that_o we_o can_v serve_v two_o master_n god_n &_o mammon_n their_o command_n be_v so_o opposite_a one_o to_o each_o other_o as_o that_o if_o we_o obey_v the_o one_o we_o must_v reject_v the_o other_o wherefore_o let_v we_o commune_v with_o our_o own_o heart_n and_o see_v a_o little_a how_o our_o spirit_n stand_v affect_v to_o christ_n do_v we_o find_v upon_o serious_a examination_n that_o christ_n and_o his_o law_n do_v bear_v sway_n in_o our_o heart_n &_o that_o excellency_n that_o be_v in_o they_o do_v in_o the_o eye_n of_o our_o soul_n weigh_v down_o all_o that_o riches_n and_o honour_n and_o pleasure_n and_o preferment_n of_o the_o world_n nay_o more_o than_o this_o do_v you_o see_v so_o much_o excellency_n in_o god_n way_n as_o that_o it_o will_v bear_v your_o charge_n with_o great_a allowance_n through_o those_o miseric_n and_o sorrow_n reproach_n and_o loss_n that_o you_o shall_v sustain_v in_o this_o life_n yea_o even_a life_n itself_o we_o shall_v see_v paul_n when_o he_o cast_v up_o his_o account_n of_o matter_n of_o this_o nature_n he_o triumph_v in_o that_o glorious_a allowance_n that_o he_o see_v provide_v for_o he_o by_o god_n 2_o cor._n 4.1_o say_v he_o our_o light_a affliction_n which_o be_v but_o for_o a_o moment_n they_o work_v for_o we_o a_o far_o more_o excellent_a eternal_a weight_n of_o glory_n wherefore_o
