myself_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o those_o that_o will_v betray_v i_o i_o must_v not_o revenge_v injury_n because_o i_o must_v be_v revenge_v of_o my_o passion_n which_o do_v i_o more_o injury_n than_o any_o other_o can_v i_o must_v love_v my_o enemy_n because_o it_o be_v a_o worse_a enemy_n that_o provoke_v i_o to_o hate_v they_o and_o yet_o though_o i_o must_v love_v my_o enemy_n i_o must_v not_o love_v my_o self_n for_o in_o my_o enemy_n i_o always_o see_v something_o good_a they_o bear_v the_o image_n of_o god_n which_o christ_n die_v to_o redeem_v but_o in_o my_o self_n mean_v by_o my_o self_n my_o sensual_a part_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o image_n of_o the_o evil_a one_o which_o christ_n die_v to_o destroy_v now_o i_o say_v from_o this_o knowledge_n of_o our_o self_n and_o the_o corruption_n of_o our_o nature_n it_o appear_v that_o humiliation_n and_o poverty_n of_o spirit_n and_o voluntary_a restraint_n and_o infliction_n such_o as_o the_o gospel_n call_v take_v up_o of_o the_o cross_n be_v necessary_a part_n of_o christian_a duty_n though_o they_o never_o come_v into_o the_o catalogue_n of_o heathen_a virtue_n the_o second_o notice_n we_o have_v from_o the_o gospel_n be_v the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o world_n that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o passage_n and_o not_o a_o place_n of_o abide_v for_o as_o our_o soul_n be_v make_v of_o no_o part_n of_o the_o world_n so_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o look_v for_o their_o proper_a satisfaction_n in_o it_o indeed_o if_o the_o world_n be_v our_o home_n and_o our_o all_o as_o both_o heathen_n and_o jew_n do_v general_o believe_v it_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n but_o that_o we_o shall_v take_v up_o with_o the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o place_n if_o we_o can_v conclude_v as_o solomon_n sometime_o do_v eccles._n 2._o that_o this_o be_v our_o portion_n and_o that_o no_o man_n may_v come_v back_o to_o see_v what_o shall_v be_v after_o he_o we_o may_v infer_v with_o he_o too_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o better_a for_o a_o man_n than_o to_o eat_v and_o to_o drink_v and_o to_o rejoice_v in_o his_o labour_n but_o the_o consideration_n that_o god_n be_v our_o portion_n and_o that_o we_o be_v but_o stranger_n and_o pilgrim_n here_o be_v a_o forcible_a argument_n to_o restrain_v our_o affection_n now_o we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v design_v for_o a_o happy_a country_n we_o ought_v not_o to_o look_v upon_o this_o as_o a_o place_n of_o enjoyment_n but_o rather_o of_o exercise_n and_o discipline_n the_o love_n of_o this_o world_n must_v now_o needs_o be_v enmity_n with_o god_n because_o to_o place_v our_o affection_n here_o be_v to_o vilify_v that_o better_a provision_n which_o he_o have_v make_v for_o we_o the_o work_v ourselves_o into_o fortune_n by_o indirect_a art_n be_v no_o long_a self-interest_n the_o rescue_v of_o ourselves_o from_o damage_n by_o unlawful_a method_n be_v no_o long_a self-preservation_n our_o soul_n be_v chief_o our_o self_n and_o who_o will_v engage_v that_o for_o a_o pitiful_a share_n in_o the_o world_n 26._o which_o our_o saviour_n tell_v we_o be_v more_o worth_a than_o the_o whole_a from_o this_o knowledge_n of_o the_o world_n it_o likewise_o appear_v that_o heavenly-mindedness_a and_o contempt_n of_o the_o world_n and_o choose_v rather_o to_o die_v than_o to_o commit_v a_o moral_a evil_n be_v the_o necessary_a office_n of_o a_o christian_a though_o a_o jew_n may_v have_v be_v excuse_v if_o he_o have_v look_v upon_o they_o as_o indiscretion_n the_o three_o notice_n it_o bring_v we_o be_v the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o full_a and_o perfect_a will_n of_o god_n contain_v in_o the_o command_v of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o sum_n of_o what_o they_o require_v of_o we_o in_o short_a amount_n to_o this_o viz._n a_o sincere_a justice_n a_o universal_a charity_n a_o check_v of_o our_o passion_n and_o regulate_v our_o enjoyment_n a_o habitual_a reverence_n of_o god_n and_o a_o constant_a application_n for_o his_o grace_n a_o strive_v and_o run_v and_o earnest_o contend_v towards_o perfection_n to_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o stature_n of_o the_o fullness_n of_o christ._n now_o these_o be_v the_o notice_n we_o have_v from_o the_o gospel_n and_o by_o these_o our_o understanding_n be_v sufficient_o inform_v we_o can_v no_o more_o pretend_v want_n of_o light_n for_o the_o rule_n be_v clear_a and_o admit_v of_o no_o doubt_n as_o likewise_o it_o be_v exact_a and_o admit_v of_o no_o prevarication_n we_o must_v see_v in_o the_o next_o place_n how_o the_o second_o excuse_n i._n e._n want_v of_o motive_n be_v void_v by_o the_o gospel_n and_o this_o be_v do_v by_o the_o greatness_n of_o its_o sanction_n that_o be_v by_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o punishment_n and_o reward_n that_o be_v there_o propose_v and_o now_o in_o the_o first_o place_n if_o fear_v have_v any_o power_n to_o deter_v we_o from_o sin_n what_o can_v we_o hear_v more_o important_a than_o this_o viz._n that_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n against_o all_o ungodliness_n and_o unrighteousness_n and_o that_o this_o wrath_n of_o god_n will_v final_o express_v itself_o in_o burn_n darkness_n anguish_n confusion_n such_o a_o state_n of_o complicate_v horror_n that_o our_o very_a fear_n which_o usual_o exceed_v in_o the_o representation_n of_o all_o other_o evil_n can_v reach_v the_o extremity_n of_o this_o and_o what_o man_n then_o in_o his_o wit_n can_v believe_v that_o he_o ought_v to_o fear_v any_o thing_n but_o this_o and_o he_o that_o can_v inflict_v it_o mount_v ebal_n have_v its_o threat_n at_o the_o give_v of_o the_o law_n but_o they_o be_v only_o temporal_a evil_n and_o the_o last_o of_o those_o evil_n which_o be_v death_n now_o these_o be_v but_o a_o poor_a restraint_n to_o a_o eager_a passion_n death_n when_o it_o be_v a_o mischief_n for_o it_o be_v not_o always_o one_o be_v a_o mischief_n that_o the_o mean_a passion_n we_o have_v will_v contemn_v and_o as_o for_o all_o the_o mischief_n that_o attend_v life_n since_o they_o can_v be_v of_o no_o long_a duration_n but_o must_v end_v with_o the_o subject_a there_o can_v be_v no_o vast_a difference_n betwixt_o they_o and_o the_o pleasure_n for_o which_o a_o man_n will_v choose_v to_o bear_v they_o if_o a_o jew_n will_v prefer_v the_o enjoyment_n of_o a_o wanton_a midianite_n in_o the_o wilderness_n before_o his_o share_n in_o canaan_n if_o he_o will_v chufe_v to_o indulge_v himself_o in_o the_o method_n of_o his_o present_a passion_n rather_o than_o see_v his_o milk_n and_o honey_n flow_v or_o his_o vine_n and_o figtree_n flourish_v yet_o both_o his_o choice_n and_o his_o hazard_n be_v temporary_a i_o speak_v to_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o revelation_n i_o say_v his_o choice_n and_o his_o hazard_n be_v both_o temporary_a they_o bare_a proportion_n to_o each_o other_o but_o when_o the_o hazard_n come_v to_o be_v infinite_a when_o the_o curse_n of_o ebal_n appear_v to_o be_v but_o the_o begin_n of_o sorrow_n and_o death_n but_o a_o passage_n to_o a_o endless_a train_n of_o severe_a evil_n in_o what_o proportion_n then_o stand_v the_o pleasure_n of_o sin_n and_o how_o wild_a be_v the_o appetite_n that_o will_v not_o check_v at_o such_o a_o gulf_n in_o the_o second_o place_n if_o hope_n have_v any_o influence_n to_o incite_v we_o to_o our_o duty_n what_o can_v we_o hear_v more_o invite_v than_o this_o viz._n a_o kingdom_n of_o
