the_o altar_n the_o priest_n can_v not_o bring_v fire_n from_o heaven_n to_o consume_v it_o but_o god_n send_v it_o and_o so_o show_v that_o it_o be_v accept_v we_o may_v lay_v the_o wood_n together_o but_o can_v bring_v fire_n from_o heaven_n but_o christ_n be_v a_o priest_n of_o a_o high_a order_n than_o be_v aaron_n he_o will_v kindle_v this_o fire_n of_o sanctification_n and_o increase_v it_o and_o keep_v it_o still_o burn_a it_o be_v his_o office_n so_o to_o do_v and_o therefore_o doubt_v not_o but_o christ_n will_v receive_v you_o oh_o but_o this_o be_v some_o comfort_n if_o i_o have_v assurance_n objection_n that_o i_o have_v but_o one_o spark_n of_o true_a grace_n in_o i_o therefore_o how_o shall_v i_o know_v that_o i_o answer_v there_o be_v 5_o sign_n sign_n lay_v down_o in_o

when_o the_o apostle_n pray_v that_o the_o philippian_n may_v abound_v in_o knowledge_n and_o in_o all_o judgement_n that_o be_v that_o they_o may_v discern_v of_o thing_n that_o differ_v and_o he_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o it_o be_v right_a else_o he_o will_v not_o pray_v for_o the_o increase_n of_o it_o so_o that_o when_o a_o man_n can_v discern_v of_o thing_n that_o differ_v when_o

thou_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v in_o christ_n isaiah_n 11._o 2._o 3._o he_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n and_o understanding_n the_o spirit_n of_o might_n the_o

of_o the_o eye_n or_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o ear_n but_o judge_v righteous_o for_o there_o be_v a_o two_o fold_v judgeing_a first_o when_o our_o eye_n or_o ear_n judge_n and_o we_o judge_v according_a to_o that_o when_o we_o send_v out_o our_o spirit_n and_o hear_v what_o they_o report_v and_o this_o be_v ready_a to_o bring_v in_o a_o false_a report_n to_o say_v that_o sin_n be_v sweet_a and_o pleasant_a and_o it_o will_v represent_v grace_n as_o vile_a because_o it_o judge_v according_a to_o outward_a appearance_n and_o the_o outside_n of_o christianity_n be_v base_a in_o

by_o the_o eye_n that_o see_v nothing_o but_o the_o outside_n he_o will_v esteem_v of_o religion_n as_o base_a but_o it_o be_v otherwise_o when_o a_o man_n have_v the_o spirit_n of_o judgement_n he_o will_v look_v further_o into_o thing_n he_o pry_v into_o the_o inside_n and_o then_o he_o will_v not_o judge_v of_o the_o way_n of_o god_n and_o of_o sin_n as_o the_o world_n do_v but_o will_v see_v a_o baseness_n in_o sin_n and_o a_o excellency_n in_o religion_n because_o he_o be_v enable_v to_o judge_v aright_o for_o christ_n as_o he_o make_v his_o prince_n and_o priest_n so_o he_o make_v

be_v that_o answer_n why_o christ_n he_o elevate_v and_o raise_v up_o that_o light_n which_o we_o have_v unto_o a_o high_a degree_n and_o that_o be_v by_o put_v a_o new_a light_n into_o their_o soul_n john_n 1._o 9_o that_o be_v the_o true_a light_n which_o lighten_v every_o one_o that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n before_o the_o creation_n be_v complete_a there_o be_v some_o light_n the_o first_o

in_o they_o before_o but_o they_o can_v not_o see_v it_o as_o the_o chariot_n and_o horseman_n be_v with_o gehezi_n but_o his_o eye_n be_v not_o open_v to_o see_v they_o and_o so_o the_o well_o be_v

where_o a_o man_n eye_n be_v open_v that_o he_o can_v see_v thus_o round_o about_o he_o then_o have_v christ_n set_v up_o this_o judgement_n in_o a_o man_n but_o here_o now_o all_o the_o business_n
