do_v thou_o trouble_v i_o that_o be_v wherefore_o be_v thou_o so_o restless_a with_o i_o that_o thou_o will_v have_v no_o denial_n till_o i_o grant_v thou_o thy_o desire_n so_o than_o if_o you_o

the_o sacrament_n work_n of_o charity_n either_o to_o the_o church_n in_o general_a or_o to_o any_o particular_a member_n of_o it_o and_o there_o must_v not_o only_o be_v a_o bare_a perform_v of_o

we_o to_o some_o sin_n hereupon_o we_o present_o yield_v because_o we_o want_v strength_n of_o grace_n which_o by_o the_o neglect_n of_o that_o duty_n we_o be_v weak_a in_o we_o know_v some_o physic_n be_v for_o restore_v as_o simile_n well_o as_o for_o weaken_v thereby_o to_o preserve_v the_o ftrength_n of_o the_o body_n now_o this_o walk_n in_o the_o action_n of_o the_o new_a man_n be_v to_o preserve_v the_o strength_n of_o the_o soul_n it_o preserve_v spiritual_a life_n in_o a_o man_n it_o enable_v he_o to_o fight_v against_o corruption_n and_o lust_n for_o what_o be_v that_o which_o weaken_v the_o soul_n but_o the_o action_n of_o the_o old_a man_n therefore_o if_o you_o will_v mortify_v your_o lust_n you_o must_v walk_v in_o the_o spirit_n the_o five_o mean_n if_o you_o will_v mortify_v your_o lust_n be_v this_o you_o must_v get_v faith_n so_o say_v the_o apostle_n faith_n act_v 15._o 9_o faith_n purify_v the_o heart_n that_o be_v 9_o it_o slay_v the_o corruption_n of_o

in_o a_o regenerate_a man_n be_v wonderful_a for_o first_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v the_o holy_a regenerate_a ghost_n come_v and_o enlighten_v the_o mind_n than_o it_o work_v faith_n and_o then_o

will_v say_v how_o can_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n dwell_v in_o the_o heart_n see_v he_o 2._o be_v in_o heaven_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o the_o heart_n 2._o as_o the_o sun_n in_o a_o house_n now_o we_o know_v that_o the_o proper_a heart_n place_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v in_o the_o firmament_n yet_o we_o say_v the_o sun_n be_v in_o the_o house_n not_o that_o we_o mean_v simile_n that_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v there_o but_o the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v there_o in_o the_o house_n so_o we_o say_v that_o the_o proper_a place_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v in_o heaven_n and_o when_o we_o say_v he_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o regenerate_a man_n we_o do_v not_o mean_v essential_o but_o by_o a_o divine_a power_n and_o nature_n that_o be_v by_o send_v his_o spirit_n into_o the_o heart_n not_o only_o to_o work_v grace_n in_o the_o heart_n but_o to_o dwell_v therein_o now_o when_o the_o spirit_n have_v take_v possession_n of_o the_o heart_n it_o draw_v and_o expel_v away_o all_o the_o darkness_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o make_v it_o to_o look_v and_o to_o see_v christ_n in_o a_o more_o excellent_a manner_n than_o before_o assure_v he_o of_o perfect_a justification_n and_o remission_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o here_o the_o error_n of_o many_o be_v meet_v withal_o in_o the_o confute_v matter_n of_o mortification_n they_o will_v have_v mortification_n first_o wrought_v and_o then_o they_o will_v lay_v hold_n upon_o christ_n for_o remission_n of_o sin_n oh_o say_v they_o if_o i_o can_v but_o find_v this_o sin_n or_o that_o sin_n mortify_v than_o i_o will_v lay_v hold_n upon_o christ_n than_o i_o will_v believe_v for_o alas_o how_o can_v i_o look_v for_o remission_n of_o sin_n how_o dare_v i_o lie_v hold_v or_o how_o can_v i_o lie_v hold_v upon_o christ_n when_o i_o find_v that_o my_o corruption_n have_v such_o hold_v on_o i_o but_o these_o be_v deceive_v for_o this_o be_v contrary_n to_o the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o first_o faith_n assure_v of_o pardon_n and_o then_o follow_v mortification_n that_o be_v when_o a_o man_n be_v once_o assure_v of_o pardon_n of_o sin_n than_o he_o begin_v to_o mortify_v and_o to_o slay_v his_o corruption_n for_o mortification_n be_v a_o fruit_n of_o faith_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v phil._n 3._o 10._o that_o i_o may_v feel_v the_o power_n of_o his_o death_n and_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o resurrection_n now_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o this_o but_o the_o two_o part_n of_o repentance_n mortification_n and_o

therefore_o if_o you_o will_v have_v your_o sin_n mortify_v you_o must_v by_o faith_n draw_v christ_n into_o your_o heart_n the_o six_o mean_n if_o you_o will_v have_v your_o sin_n joy._n mortify_v

to_o esteem_v of_o earthly_a thing_n therefore_o if_o you_o be_v rise_v that_o be_v if_o this_o heavenly_a life_n and_o disposition_n and_o change_n be_v in_o you_o then_o let_v the_o same_o appear_v

to_o understand_v they_o set_v your_o affection_n on_o thing_n above_o that_o be_v let_v they_o be_v special_o mind_v of_o you_o let_v all_o your_o faculty_n be_v fill_v with_o a_o knowledge_n of_o

if_o thou_o have_v no_o knowledge_n of_o heaven_n and_o heavenly_a thing_n how_o can_v thou_o desire_v they_o see_v where_o there_o be_v no_o desire_n there_o be_v no_o seek_v and_o therefore_o if_o thou_o will_v seek_v heavenly_a thing_n as_o christ_n and_o grace_n and_o salvation_n then_o know_v they_o first_o afterward_o in_o the_o three_o verse_n he_o go_v on_o and_o press_v this_o exhortation_n with_o divers_a argument_n first_o because_o you_o be_v dead_a that_o be_v see_v you_o be_v dead_a unto_o earthly_a thing_n therefore_o strive_v not_o now_o to_o be_v earthly_a mind_v

may_v thus_o object_v you_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o perfection_n of_o glory_n and_o that_o it_o be_v hide_v with_o christ_n but_o when_o shall_v we_o have_v it_o that_o be_v when_o shall_v it_o be_v make_v manifest_a unto_o we_o unto_o this_o the_o apostle_n answer_v when_o christ_n who_o in_o our_o life_n shall_v appear_v then_o shall_v we_o also_o appear_v with_o he_o in_o glory_n and_o hereupon_o he_o ground_v another_o exhortation_n in_o the_o verse_n i_o have_v read_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v see_v you_o expect_v such_o a_o perfection_n of_o glory_n to_o be_v

that_o glory_n mortify_v therefore_o your_o earthl●e_a member_n that_o be_v slay_v every_o foul_a affection_n inordinate_a desire_n of_o earthly_a thing_n rid_v your_o heart_n of_o they_o by_o slay_v of_o they_o and_o although_o it_o may_v seem_v a_o hard_a work_n yet_o fight_v still_o or_o else_o you_o shall_v never_o attain_v unto_o that_o life_n you_o hope_v for_o so_o that_o the_o first_o general_a point_n hence_o be_v this_o that_o the_o height_n of_o glory_n which_o we_o expect_v by_o christ_n shall_v 1._o cause_v every_o man_n to_o mortify_v sin_n this_o the_o apostle_n make_v the_o ground_n of_o our_o mortification_n if_o you_o be_v rise_v with_o christ_n seek_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v above_o mortify_v therefore_o your_o earthly_a member_n that_o be_v except_o you_o slay_v sin_n that_o have_v slay_v christ_n you_o can_v get_v life_n with_o christ_n sure_o then_o mortification_n be_v not_o as_o man_n think_v it_o a_o needless_a work_n which_o matter_n not_o much_o whether_o it_o be_v set_v upon_o or_o no_o but_o this_o be_v man_n sickness_n for_o as_o a_o man_n that_o be_v sick_a think_v physic_n simile_n be_v not_o needful_a because_o he_o be_v not_o sensible_a of_o his_o disease_n when_o as_o the_o physician_n know_v that_o it_o be_v amatter_v of_o necessity_n and_o that_o except_o he_o purge_v out_o that_o corruption_n and_o humour_n of_o the_o

to_o mortify_v sin_n be_v a_o work_n of_o necessity_n whereupon_o stand_v every_o man_n life_n and_o salvation_n the_o second_o thing_n which_o we_o note_v be_v this_o that_o the_o frame_n of_o our_o heart_n ought_v to_o suit_n with_o those_o condition_n that_o we_o receive_v by_o our_o union_n with_o 2._o christ._n and_o this_o also_o the_o apostle_n make_v another_o ground_n of_o mortification_n if_o you_o be_v rise_v with_o christ_n seek_v heavenly_a thing_n and_o therefore_o labour_v to_o mortify_v your_o inordinate_a affection_n and_o sinful_a lust_n that_o so_o the_o frame_n of_o your_o
