love_n paul_n because_o paul_n be_v the_o minister_n that_o do_v convert_v he_o therefore_o he_o call_v he_o 1_o tim._n 1.2_o timothy_n his_o belove_a son_n in_o the_o faith_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o when_o the_o apostle_n will_v draw_v love_n from_o the_o corinthian_n to_o himself_o and_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o mean_n of_o their_o call_n he_o urge_v it_o upon_o this_o ground_n that_o they_o be_v the_o mean_n that_o do_v beget_v they_o to_o christ_n jesus_n 1_o cor._n 4._o ver_fw-la 1._o compare_v with_o ver_fw-la 15_o 16._o let_v a_o man_n so_o account_v of_o we_o as_o of_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n and_o as_o steward_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o god_n why_o shall_v man_n so_o account_v of_o they_o for_o ver_fw-la 15._o though_o you_o have_v ten_o thousand_o instructor_n yet_o have_v you_o not_o many_o father_n for_o in_o christ_n jesus_n i_o have_v beget_v you_o through_o the_o gospel_n hereby_o he_o will_v draw_v out_o their_o love_n to_o he_o because_o he_o be_v the_o instrument_n that_o do_v first_o convert_v they_o now_o then_o put_v these_o two_o together_o a_o man_n that_o be_v effectual_o call_v he_o do_v both_o love_n the_o word_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v a_o instrument_n of_o his_o call_n and_o the_o minister_n that_o preach_v that_o word_n which_o be_v the_o mean_n by_o which_o he_o be_v call_v and_o try_v yourselves_o by_o these_o many_o of_o you_o haply_o have_v some_o good_a wrought_v as_o you_o think_v upon_o you_o and_o some_o change_n in_o you_o but_o true_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o this_o if_o you_o be_v person_n that_o be_v out_o of_o love_n with_o the_o word_n if_o you_o be_v out_o of_o love_n with_o those_o minister_n god_n make_v instrumental_a to_o convert_v you_o you_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o suspect_v your_o call_n for_o you_o see_v throughout_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o scripture_n their_o heart_n do_v cleave_v with_o love_n to_o they_o that_o call_v they_o and_o therefore_o they_o that_o can_v slight_v and_o contemn_v those_o minister_n by_o who_o ministry_n they_o be_v bring_v home_o to_o jesus_n christ_n they_o have_v just_a cause_n of_o jealousy_n to_o

you_o some_o measure_n of_o knowledge_n to_o be_v acquaint_v both_o with_o the_o mystery_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n and_o the_o sinfulness_n of_o yourselves_o more_o than_o ever_o you_o be_v before_o this_o the_o apostle_n peter_n intimate_v 1_o pet._n 2._o ver_fw-la 9_o you_o be_v a_o choose_a generation_n a_o royal_a priesthood_n a_o peculiar_a people_n that_o you_o may_v show_v forth_o the_o praise_n of_o he_o who_o have_v call_v you_o out_o of_o darkness_n into_o his_o marvellous_a light_n i._n e._n out_o of_o ignorance_n into_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o knowledge_n and_o it_o be_v call_v a_o marvellous_a light_n 1._o because_o it_o be_v marvellous_a if_o you_o compare_v that_o knowledge_n you_o shall_v have_v under_o the_o gospel_n with_o what_o man_n have_v under_o the_o law_n 2._o it_o be_v marvellous_a because_o man_n be_v astonish_v that_o they_o shall_v after_o so_o long_a a_o night_n of_o ignorance_n come_v to_o so_o great_a a_o measure_n of_o knowledge_n 3._o it_o be_v call_v marvel_v we_o because_o it_o be_v so_o contrary_a to_o that_o condition_n they_o be_v former_o in_o as_o if_o a_o man_n that_o have_v lie_v long_o in_o a_o dark_a dungeon_n shall_v be_v sudden_o call_v into_o a_o glorious_a palace_n the_o palace_n will_v seem_v more_o glorious_a because_o it_o be_v so_o contrary_a to_o the_o dark_a prison_n so_o this_o work_n of_o god_n when_o he_o call_v you_o it_o be_v call_v marvellous_a light_n because_o it_o be_v so_o contrary_a to_o the_o condition_n you_o be_v in_o before_o your_o call_n isa_n 30.26_o act_n 26.18_o he_o have_v send_v his_o word_n to_o call_v you_o from_o darkness_n to_o light_n and_o from_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n to_o god_n 4._o it_o be_v a_o marvellous_a light_n because_o such_o as_o none_o but_o the_o mediator_n can_v procure_v it_o isa_n 42.6_o 7._o i_o will_v give_v thou_o for_o a_o light_n to_o the_o gentile_n 5._o it_o be_v a_o marvellous_a light_n because_o a_o light_n that_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n 2_o cor._n 4.6_o god_n that_o command_v the_o light_n to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n 6._o it_o be_v a_o marvellous_a light_n because_o it_o have_v more_o force_n than_o any_o other_o light_n it_o be_v call_v the_o light_n of_o life_n joh._n 8.12_o now_o this_o call_n from_o darkness_n to_o light_n have_v two_o branch_n 1._o a_o man_n shall_v have_v more_o light_n to_o have_v more_o acquaintance_n with_o and_o more_o clearness_n in_o the_o mystery_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o 2._o more_o light_a to_o know_v the_o sinfulness_n of_o himself_o first_o he_o shall_v have_v more_o light_a to_o know_v the_o mystery_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o paul_n tell_v we_o gal._n 1.16_o it_o please_v god_n to_o call_v i_o by_o his_o grace_n and_o to_o reveal_v his_o son_n in_o i_o imply_v that_o where_o god_n by_o his_o grace_n do_v call_v a_o sinner_n he_o do_v reveal_v his_o son_n unto_o he_o wherefore_o beloved_n if_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o make_v know_v to_o your_o soul_n if_o you_o have_v no_o competent_a measure_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n you_o may_v be_v under_o this_o conviction_n that_o you_o be_v not_o yet_o call_v by_o jesus_n christ_n nay_o further_o he_o do_v not_o only_o call_v you_o unto_o this_o light_n to_o manifest_a jesus_n christ_n to_o you_o in_o some_o dim_a way_n but_o you_o shall_v have_v a_o clear_a light_n 2_o cor._n 4.6_o for_o god_n who_o command_v light_a to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n have_v shine_v in_o our_o heart_n not_o in_o a_o dim_a but_o shine_a light_n to_o give_v we_o the_o light_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v you_o have_v a_o clear_a light_n to_o know_v god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o christ_n you_o can_v know_v god_n in_o himself_o but_o in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n you_o shall_v have_v light_a to_o know_v he_o this_o therefore_o be_v the_o first_o branch_n that_o god_n will_v put_v a_o light_n into_o thy_o soul_n whereby_o thou_o shall_v have_v a_o clear_a knowledge_n of_o the_o thing_n appertain_v to_o jesus_n christ_n again_o second_o this_o light_n shall_v not_o only_o reveal_v christ_n to_o thou_o but_o this_o light_n shall_v also_o reveal_v thyself_o to_o thou_o the_o sinfulness_n of_o thyself_o it_o be_v observable_a of_o paul_n that_o before_o his_o call_n he_o be_v after_o the_o law_n blameless_a he_o think_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o faultless_a man_n but_o when_o the_o word_n call_v he_o than_o he_o cry_v out_o i_o see_v sin_n to_o be_v exceed_o sinful_a then_o he_o see_v sin_n to_o be_v sin_n and_o himself_o to_o be_v a_o vile_a and_o wretched_a man_n and_o therefore_o beloved_n any_o of_o you_o that_o have_v not_o this_o marvellous_a light_n in_o your_o soul_n neither_o to_o know_v god_n nor_o know_v jesus_n christ_n nor_o the_o matter_n appertain_v to_o he_o nor_o to_o know_v the_o sinfulness_n of_o your_o own_o heart_n take_v it_o from_o god_n you_o be_v not_o effectual_o call_v either_o these_o passage_n in_o scripture_n must_v be_v raze_v out_o or_o else_o your_o calling_n must_v not_o be_v sound_a and_o therefore_o take_v heed_n i_o will_v fain_o make_v my_o ministry_n search_v that_o hypocrite_n may_v not_o lie_v lurk_v under_o it_o you_o will_v be_v better_a christian_n if_o you_o be_v better_o acquaint_v with_o all_o that_o unsoundnesse_n and_o that_o wretchedness_n of_o heart_n that_o be_v in_o you_o and_o therefore_o i_o entreat_v you_o look_v about_o you_o though_o i_o will_v have_v no_o godly_a man_n discourage_v by_o this_o that_o be_v speak_v but_o that_o you_o that_o be_v not_o yet_o call_v may_v have_v your_o heart_n a_o little_a stagger_v by_o what_o be_v and_o will_v be_v say_v 3._o a_o man_n effectual_o call_v be_v cast_v out_o of_o himself_o and_o cleave_v to_o and_o close_v with_o jesus_n christ_n with_o more_o complacency_n and_o contentment_n than_o ever_o he_o can_v do_v in_o all_o his_o life_n before_o john_n 6.45_o he_o that_o have_v hear_v and_o learn_v of_o the_o father_n shall_v come_v unto_o i_o he_o do_v not_o say_v all_o they_o that_o hear_v of_o the_o
