saint_n from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n if_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n can_v quench_v and_o extinguish_v the_o flame_n of_o god_n love_n to_o a_o believe_a soul_n that_o which_o carry_v in_o it_o the_o great_a contrariety_n to_o god_n holy_a and_o heavenly_a nature_n must_v needs_o do_v it_o and_o that_o be_v sin_n but_o sin_n can_v do_v it_o a_o state_n of_o sin_n before_o regeneration_n can_v not_o do_v it_o much_o less_o shall_v a_o act_n of_o sin_n now_o you_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o grace_n be_v able_a to_o effect_v it_o for_o their_o be_v more_o malignity_n in_o a_o state_n of_o sin_n than_o in_o a_o act_n of_o sin_n now_o say_v the_o apostle_n god_n commend_v his_o love_n to_o we_o in_o that_o when_o we_o be_v yet_o sinner_n christ_n die_v for_o we_o rom_n 5.8_o if_o god_n love_v sinner_n while_o sinner_n then_o sure_o his_o love_n to_o saint_n can_v be_v break_v off_o by_o sin_n if_o the_o time_n of_o their_o blood_n be_v the_o time_n of_o his_o love_n as_o ezck._n 16.6_o then_o sure_o his_o love_n to_o they_o when_o saint_n be_v invincible_a inviolable_a he_o may_v indeed_o visit_v their_o iniquity_n with_o stripe_n and_o their_o transgression_n with_o rod_n it_o be_v a_o branch_n of_o his_o covenant_n psal_n 89.30_o 31._o never_o thelesse_a his_o love_a kindness_n will_v he_o not_o utter_o take_v from_o they_o nor_o suffer_v his_o faithfulness_n to_o fail_v second_o god_n take_v notice_n of_o of_o and_o accept_v that_o good_a which_o be_v in_o his_o saint_n notwithstanding_o their_o sin_n indeed_o man_n be_v apt_a so_o to_o mind_v their_o vice_n that_o they_o forget_v their_o virtue_n a_o little_a evil_n make_v man_n forget_v abundance_n of_o good_a man_n be_v apt_a to_o pitch_v only_o upon_o the_o weakness_n and_o fail_n of_o of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o to_o overlook_v what_o be_v good_a in_o they_o like_o fly_n that_o pitch_n upon_o the_o sore_a and_o like_a vulture_n that_o fly_v over_o the_o pleasant_a garden_n and_o pitch_n upon_o carrion_n so_o wicked_a man_n watch_v for_o the_o halting_n of_o god_n people_n and_o feed_v their_o malice_n with_o their_o fail_n but_o god_n take_v notice_n of_o a_o little_a good_a in_o the_o midst_n of_o abundance_n of_o evil_a of_o a_o little_a gold_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o abundance_n of_o oar_n of_o a_o little_a wheat_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o abundance_n of_o chaff_n and_o it_o be_v worth_a our_o choice_a observation_n that_o when_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o scripture_n give_v we_o the_o character_n of_o saint_n he_o hide_v their_o fail_n and_o take_v notice_n only_o of_o their_o grace_n i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o few_o instance_n if_o you_o look_v into_o gen._n 18.12_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o sarahs_n speech_n be_v full_a of_o
