ground_n that_o be_v such_o as_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o never_o regard_v what_o they_o hear_v and_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o they_o go_v out_o of_o the_o congregation_n he_o seed_n o●●e_a word_n

i_o say_v that_o entertain_v nothing_o in_o it_o that_o any_o way_n make_v against_o the_o word_n a_o good_a heart_n be_v a_o heart_n which_o as_o the_o apo_n le_fw-mi say_v in_o jam._n 1.21_o and_o that_o place_n may_v very_o well_o come_v in_o here_o to_o be_v open_v be_v cleanse_v from_o all_o filthiness_n and_o superfluity_n of_o naughtiness_n the_o word_n that_o be_v there_o translate_a

if_o it_o be_v with_o evil_a heart_n you_o mingle_v that_o very_a filthiness_n which_o be_v as_o vile_a before_o god_n as_o excrement_n be_v and_o superfinity_n of_o naughtiness_n by_o that_o i_o

hearken_v to_o you_o a_o good_a man_n he_o have_v no_o kind_n of_o evil_a end_n in_o he_o no_o evil_a design_n at_o all_o but_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o hearken_v to_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a so_o a_o good_a heart_n whatsoever_o be_v good_a he_o be_v ready_a to_o entertain_v if_o it_o be_v a_o good_a thing_n his_o heart_n be_v suitable_a to_o it_o and_o run_v present_o unto_o it_o have_v a_o good_a heart_n it_o do_v present_o close_a with_o the_o good_a word_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o a_o honest_a heart_n by_o honesty_n of_o heart_n certain_o there_o be_v more_o mean_v than_o such_o a_o one_o that_o we_o call_v a_o honest_a man_n that_o be_v a_o man_n that_o be_v honest_a in_o his_o deal_n between_o man_n and_o man_n there_o be_v many_o a_o man_n that_o be_v account_v a_o very_a honest_a man_n in_o the_o world_n but_o have_v not_o a_o honest_a heart_n i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v it_o that_o man_n that_o have_v a_o honest_a heart_n to_o god_n be_v one_o that_o receive_v the_o seed_n of_o the_o word_n so_o as_o he_o go_v beyond_o the_o highway_n ground_n the_o stony_a ground_n or_o the_o thorny_a ground_n he_o go_v beyond_o those_o three_o sort_n of_o professor_n he_o be_v one_o that_o have_v a_o eminency_n in_o profession_n of_o religion_n beyond_o those_o three_o now_o the_o world_n account_v many_o honest_a man_n that_o do_v not_o go_v beyond_o any_o of_o those_o three_o yea_o the_o world_n do_v ordinary_o account_v any_o of_o those_o three_o to_o be_v honest_a man_n as_o the_o highway_n ground_n be_v there_o not_o many_o honest_a man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o regard_v not_o the_o word_n of_o god_n at_o all_o but_o only_o come_v to_o hear_v a_o sermon_n and_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o have_v do_v as_o it_o come_v in_o at_o one_o ear_n so_o it_o go_v out_o at_o the_o other_o i_o fear_v there_o be_v some_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o be_v account_v honest_a man_n and_o woman_n in_o the_o world_n that_o can_v hardly_o give_v a_o account_n of_o any_o one_o sermon_n they_o have_v hear_v in_o all_o their_o life_n hardly_o i_o say_v but_o the_o word_n which_o they_o hear_v be_v present_o take_v away_o from_o they_o and_o yet_o these_o be_v account_v honest_a man_n in_o the_o world_n but_o this_o be_v not_o the_o honest_a heart_n the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o and_o many_o there_o be_v that_o go_v further_o than_o these_o that_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n with_o joy_n and_o yet_o they_o have_v not_o this_o honest_a heart_n yea_o they_o may_v hear_v the_o word_n so_o as_o to_o bring_v forth_o a_o blade_n and_o yet_o nor_o have_v this_o honest_a heart_n by_o this_o honest_a heart_n i_o take_v therefore_o to_o be_v mean_v this_o a_o heart_n that_o deal_v square_o and_o true_o with_o god_n behave_v itself_o in_o a_o beseem_a manner_n suitable_a to_o that_o authority_n and_o excellency_n that_o there_o be_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n as_o now_o for_o example_n 1_o first_o among_o man_n he_o be_v account_v a_o honest_a man_n that_o deal_v square_o and_o true_o with_o man_n in_o all_o action_n such_o a_o man_n you_o will_v say_v be_v a_o honest_a man_n as_o honest_a a_o man_n as_o ever_o break_v bread_n that_o be_v one_o that_o will_v deal_v square_o with_o man_n not_o only_o in_o one_o thing_n but_o turn_v he_o to_o any_o thing_n and_o you_o shall_v find_v a_o proportion_n between_o one_o action_n and_o another_o so_o this_o be_v a_o honest_a heart_n not_o one_o that_o only_o will_v be_v forward_o for_o god_n in_o some_o one_o action_n wherein_o he_o may_v enjoy_v himself_o as_o well_o as_o god_n but_o one_o that_o deal_v square_o with_o god_n let_v god_n put_v he_o upon_o duty_n upon_o any_o service_n god_n shall_v find_v he_o still_o to_o be_v the_o same_o man_n put_v he_o upon_o any_o easy_a service_n as_o many_o will_v embrace_v that_o or_o put_v he_o upon_o a_o difficult_a service_n it_o be_v all_o one_o if_o it_o be_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n you_o shall_v find_v he_o square_v in_o every_o thing_n though_o he_o be_v put_v upon_o that_o which_o he_o be_v like_a to_o suffer_v very_o much_o in_o yet_o he_o go_v on_o according_a to_o his_o principle_n a_o honest_a heart_n be_v one_o that_o have_v receive_v gracious_a principle_n and_o according_o he_o act_v all_o the_o world_n can_v take_v he_o off_o from_o his_o principle_n of_o godliness_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v put_v into_o his_o heart_n 2_o second_o a_o honest_a man_n be_v one_o that_o provide_v thing_n honest_a before_o man_n that_o do_v all_o thing_n in_o a_o seemly_a way_n in_o all_o those_o relation_n that_o he_o have_v unto_o other_o that_o we_o account_v honesty_n so_o when_o a_o man_n behaviour_n towards_o the_o word_n be_v such_o as_o do_v beseem_v the_o word_n of_o that_o god_n with_o who_o he_o have_v to_o deal_v that_o look_v what_o excellency_n what_o glory_n there_o be_v

christ_n may_v be_v the_o true_a messiah_n some_o kind_n of_o imperfect_a believe_a they_o have_v but_o they_o be_v not_o thorough_o bring_v off_o now_o say_v christ_n if_o you_o continue_v in_o my_o word_n you_o be_v my_o disciple_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v do_v not_o you_o think_v it_o enough_o that_o you_o come_v to_o hear_v i_o and_o that_o you_o be_v take_v by_o what_o i_o say_v you_o must_v continue_v in_o my_o word_n and_o then_o you_o be_v my_o disciple_n christ_n will_v not_o own_o that_o man_n or_o woman_n to_o be_v his_o disciple_n that_o do_v not_o continue_v in_o his_o word_n o_o that_o you_o will_v consider_v of_o this_o you_o that_o satisfy_v yourselves_o in_o have_v some_o flash_n of_o your_o affection_n when_o you_o be_v hear_v the_o word_n but_o do_v not_o think_v that_o you_o be_v the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n because_o of_o they_o in_o tit._n 1.9_o hold_v fast_o the_o faithful_a word_n as_o you_o have_v be_v teach_v that_o be_v the_o thing_n you_o shall_v labour_v for_o to_o hold_v fast_o the_o faithful_a word_n hold_v it_o fast_o that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v take_v from_o you_o and_o so_o you_o shall_v come_v to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o the_o hear_n of_o his_o word_n 11_o the_o last_o that_o i_o shall_v speak_v to_o be_v this_o if_o thou_o will_v sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o hear_v his_o word_n turn_v it_o into_o practice_n or_o otherwise_o the_o name_n of_o god_n be_v blaspheme_v or_o at_o least_o be_v take_v in_o vain_a by_o thou_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o turn_v what_o thou_o hear_v into_o practice_n so_o you_o have_v it_o in_o jam._n 1.22_o he_o that_o be_v not_o a_o forgetful_a bearer_n but_o a_o doer_n of_o the_o word_n this_o man_n say_v he_o shall_v be_v bless_v in_o his_o deed_n and_o vers_fw-la 22._o be_v you_o d●ers_v of_o the_o word_n and_o not_o hearer_n only_o deceive_v your_o own_o self_n the_o word_n here_o that_o be_v translate_v deceive_v your_o own_o self_n it_o be_v a_o word_n take_v from_o logician_n and_o signify_v to_o make_v a_o false_a syllogism_n a_o man_n that_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o do_v not_o do_v it_o he_o do_v as_o it_o be_v reason_n thus_o those_o that_o do_v come_v to_o church_n as_o we_o use_v to_o say_v those_o sure_o be_v religious_a people_n but_o i_o come_v to_o sermon_n and_o therefore_o i_o be_o religious_a now_o this_o be_v a_o false_a reasoniag_n and_o thou_o do_v but_o cozen_v thyself_o be_v not_o a_o hearer_n only_o but_o a_o doer_n of_o the_o word_n that_o thou_o may_v not_o deceive_v thy_o own_o soul_n so_o in_o rom._n 2.3_o think_v thou_o this_o o_fw-fr man_n that_o judge_v they_o that_o do_v such_o thing_n &_o do_v the_o same_o that_o thou_o shall_v escape_v the_o judgement_n of_o god_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v you_o have_v the_o word_n and_o you_o be_v able_a to_o judge_v thereby_o what_o you_o hear_v but_o yet_o still_o you_o be_v wicked_a in_o your_o life_n this_o be_v despise_v of_o the_o riches_n of_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n towards_o you_o and_o in_o ppilipians_n 2.16_o you_o have_v a_o remarkable_a text_n where_o the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v of_o the_o philipian_o that_o he_o will_v have_v they_o hold_v forth_o the_o word_n of_o life_n it_o be_v a_o most_o excellent_a thing_n if_o it_o may_v be_v say_v of_o this_o congregation_n that_o as_o they_o come_v deligent_o to_o hear_v and_o be_v willing_a to_o take_v pain_n to_o get_v out_o of_o their_o bed_n so_o early_o in_o the_o morning_n so_o all_o the_o week_n after_o they_o hold_v forth_o the_o word_n of_o god_n you_o that_o be_v servant_n it_o may_v be_v your_o master_n be_v naught_o and_o the_o family_n naught_o from_o whence_o you_o come_v now_o when_o you_o go_v home_o though_o it_o may_v be_v they_o will_v not_o let_v you_o repeat_v the_o sermon_n yet_o you_o be_v to_o hold_v forth_o the_o sermon_n in_o your_o practice_n and_o conversation_n how_o be_v the_o name_n of_o god_n glorify_v when_o we_o hold_v forth_o his_o word_n this_o be_v to_o let_v not_o only_o your_o light_n shine_v but_o the_o light_n of_o the_o word_n shine_v before_o man_n that_o they_o may_v behold_v it_o and_o glorify_v your_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n so_o that_o now_o put_v all_o these_o eleven_o particular_n together_o and_o then_o you_o have_v make_v good_a that_o expression_n we_o find_v in_o act._n 13.48_o that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v glorify_v and_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n we_o have_v another_o expression_n in_o 2_o thess_n 3.1_o final_o brethren_n pray_v for_o we_o that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o

you_o as_o ever_o you_o expect_v to_o receive_v any_o good_a from_o the_o word_n or_o to_o look_v upon_o the_o face_n of_o god_n with_o comfort_n who_o word_n this_o be_v do_v not_o be_v a_o shame_n to_o his_o word_n and_o to_o the_o minister_n of_o his_o word_n put_v all_o these_o thing_n together_o i_o say_v and_o learn_v to_o make_v conscience_n of_o sanctify_a god_n name_v in_o hear_v the_o

this_o by_o hear_v sermon_n if_o you_o shall_v open_v the_o mouth_n of_o man_n to_o say_v so_o of_o you_o the_o word_n of_o god_n as_o much_o as_o lie_v in_o you_o will_v be_v disgrace_v by_o you_o you_o shall_v rather_o think_v thus_o it_o be_v better_o for_o i_o that_o i_o shall_v die_v and_o that_o i_o be_v under_o the_o ground_n and_o rot_v there_o than_o that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n shall_v ever_o be_v disgrace_v by_o i_o let_v i_o hold_v forth_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o word_n the_o word_n be_v that_o that_o have_v do_v good_a to_o my_o soul_n the_o word_n be_v that_o that_o i_o

you_o have_v get_v any_o good_a by_o the_o word_n you_o shall_v go_v away_o with_o this_o resolution_n well_o i_o will_v labour_v all_o the_o day_n of_o my_o life_n to_o honour_v this_o word_n of_o

sermon_n x._o leviticus_n 10.3_o i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o they_o that_o come_v nigh_o i_o now_o follow_v the_o reason_n why_o god_n stand_v so_o much_o upon_o it_o that_o he_o will_v have_v his_o name_n sanctify_v in_o this_o ordinance_n of_o hear_v his_o word_n 1_o first_o it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v so_o much_o of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a there_o can_v be_v ●n_v in_o heaven_n that_o sin_n will_v be_v great_a than_o sin_n commit_v here_o therefore_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o angel_n when_o they_o be_v in_o god_n presence_n in_o a_o more_o especial_a manner_n be_v the_o great_a the_o name_n of_o god_n be_v in_o any_o thing_n the_o great_a will_v be_v the_o evil_a if_o we_o do_v not_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o it_o now_o there_o be_v very_o much_o of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n more_o of_o god_n there_o than_o in_o all_o his_o work_n of_o creation_n and_o providence_n in_o psa_n 138.2_o thou_o have_v magnify_v thy_o word_n above_o all_o thy_o name_n there_o be_v therefore_o so_o much_o of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n we_o must_v sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o it_o 2_o second_o god_n have_v appoint_v his_o word_n to_o be_v the_o great_a ordinance_n to_o convey_v the_o special_a mercy_n that_o he_o intend_v for_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n that_o we_o speak_v to_o before_o
