thing_n though_o you_o do_v follow_v your_o trade_n which_o be_v lawful_a and_o commendable_a yet_o if_o this_o make_v thou_o neglect_v the_o duty_n of_o god_n service_n as_o family-duty_n and_o closet-duty_n etc._n etc._n then_o you_o do_v abuse_v lawful_a thing_n and_o therein_o consist_v martha_n abuse_n of_o lawful_a thing_n in_o luke_n 10.40_o martha_n martha_n thou_o be_v careful_a and_o trouble_v about_o many_o thing_n say_v christ_n she_o be_v trouble_v about_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o house_n but_o she_o neglect_v the_o one_o thing_n necessary_a the_o hear_n of_o christ_n voice_n and_o therefore_o all_o you_o that_o be_v tradesman_n &_o man_n of_o great_a employment_n in_o the_o world_n take_v a_o serious_a survey_n over_o your_o own_o heart_n consider_v whether_o you_o do_v not_o rob_v god_n of_o his_o due_n and_o by_o your_o too_o eager_o pursue_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n neglect_v the_o duty_n of_o his_o service_n 2._o when_o you_o can_v take_v that_o natural_a refreshment_n in_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n which_o he_o allow_v when_o you_o can_v eat_v your_o bread_n with_o quietness_n you_o be_v so_o perplex_v and_o ingulpht_v in_o the_o

be_v too_o eager_a about_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n and_o three_o when_o a_o man_n be_v restless_a and_o unsatisfied_a with_o his_o condition_n he_o will_v be_v great_a and_o rich_a than_o he_o be_v and_o drive_v a_o great_a trade_n than_o he_o do_v this_o be_v to_o be_v too_o eager_a upon_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n 3._o another_o thing_n wherein_o man_n abuse_v the_o lawful_a thing_n of_o this_o world_n in_o their_o use_n be_v when_o they_o use_v they_o too_o depend_o when_o they_o trust_v and_o rely_v and_o depend_v too_o much_o upon_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n the_o comfort_n of_o this_o life_n may_v well_o be_v compare_v to_o the_o reed_n of_o egypt_n that_o if_o a_o man_n lean_a upon_o they_o will_v not_o only_o deceive_v his_o expectation_n and_o break_v under_o he_o but_o pierce_v and_o run_v into_o his_o hand_n so_o if_o you_o rely_v too_o much_o upon_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n they_o will_v break_v and_o frustrate_v your_o hope_n and_o fly_v away_o from_o you_o and_o pierce_v you_o through_o with_o many_o sorrow_n it_o be_v a_o good_a observation_n that_o one_o have_v say_v he_o the_o world_n hang_v upon_o nothing_o and_o therefore_o why_o shall_v we_o depend_v upon_o that_o which_o have_v no_o foundation_n 4._o a_o man_n use_v lawful_a thing_n abusive_o when_o he_o use_v the_o world_n too_o carkingly_a when_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v so_o trouble_v with_o solicitousness_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o he_o and_o his_o family_n hereafter_o in_o his_o old_a age_n that_o he_o can_v enjoy_v any_o comfort_n or_o quietness_n in_o what_o he_o possess_v for_o the_o present_a than_o he_o abuse_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n be_v not_o durable_a and_o last_a and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o set_v our_o heart_n upon_o they_o or_o be_v trouble_v at_o our_o future_a estate_n but_o live_v without_o care_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o the_o next_o verse_n to_o my_o text_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v too_o cark_n and_o solicitous_a about_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n quest_n 3_o we_o come_v now_o to_o the_o three_o query_n what_o a_o christian_a shall_v do_v that_o in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o lawful_a comfort_n of_o this_o life_n he_o may_v not_o abuse_v they_o but_o that_o he_o may_v use_v lawful_a thing_n lawful_o what_o course_n shall_v a_o christian_a take_v that_o he_o may_v do_v thus_o answ_n i_o shall_v dispatch_v this_o very_o brief_o and_o show_v you_o in_o 4_o particular_n how_o you_o may_v do_v to_o use_v lawful_a thing_n lawful_o and_o not_o to_o abuse_v they_o 1._o if_o you_o will_v use_v lawful_a thing_n lawful_o use_v they_o spiritual_o and_o then_o you_o will_v not_o use_v they_o abusive_o use_v earthly_a thing_n with_o a_o heavenly_a mind_n as_o wicked_a man_n do_v use_v spiritual_a thing_n carnal_o so_o shall_v you_o use_v carnal_a thing_n spiritual_o that_o be_v while_o you_o be_v about_o carnal_a thing_n you_o shall_v make_v a_o spiritual_a use_n of_o they_o and_o thus_o our_o saviour_n do_v when_o the_o people_n come_v about_o he_o for_o bread_n he_o take_v occasion_n thereby_o to_o tell_v they_o of_o the_o bread_n of_o life_n and_o of_o that_o mannah_n that_o come_v down_o from_o heaven_n that_o a_o man_n may_v eat_v thereof_o and_o not_o die_v so_o when_o the_o samaritan_n woman_n be_v bufie_v at_o the_o well_o draw_v of_o water_n christ_n from_o thence_o take_v occasion_n to_o tell_v she_o of_o the_o water_n of_o life_n of_o live_a water_n that_o if_o a_o man_n drink_v thereof_o he_o shall_v never_o thirst_v more_o thus_o do_v christ_n improve_v carnal_a thing_n spiritual_o a_o man_n may_v lawful_o talk_v and_o discourse_n of_o worldly_a thing_n of_o buy_v and_o sell_v and_o trade_v but_o still_o in_o the_o close_a there_o shall_v be_v a_o touch_n of_o something_o that_o be_v spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a a_o man_n will_v never_o use_v the_o world_n well_o till_o he_o use_v it_o spiritual_o one_o that_o treat_v upon_o this_o subject_n say_v that_o as_o he_o sit_v once_o in_o his_o study_n he_o see_v a_o little_a robin-red-breast_n pitch_n upon_o his_o window_n chirp_a and_o he_o present_o make_v this_o spiritual_a use_n of_o it_o say_v he_o this_o poor_a bird_n that_o know_v not_o where_o to_o abide_v but_o to_o rest_v upon_o a_o hedge_n and_o know_v not_o where_o to_o have_v a_o bit_n of_o meat_n or_o where_o she_o shall_v pick_v up_o the_o next_o crumb_n yet_o she_o can_v sing_v and_o be_v merry_a and_o therefore_o why_o shall_v i_o that_o have_v enough_o of_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n be_v deject_v and_o trouble_v with_o care_n and_o solicitousness_n for_o they_o 2._o use_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n reflexive_o and_o then_o you_o will_v not_o use_v they_o abusive_o reflect_v from_o the_o world_n up_o to_o god_n when_o you_o be_v enjoy_v any_o of_o the_o comfort_n of_o this_o life_n and_o find_v a_o relish_n and_o sweetness_n in_o any_o of_o the_o creature_n then_o by_o way_n of_o reflection_n consider_v that_o if_o there_o be_v such_o a_o sweetness_n and_o deliciousness_n in_o the_o creature_n what_o a_o sweetness_n be_v there_o in_o god_n the_o creator_n if_o there_o be_v so_o much_o beauty_n and_o excellency_n in_o the_o creature_n how_o much_o beauty_n and_o glory_n and_o transcendent_a excellency_n be_v there_o in_o god_n and_o in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n if_o there_o be_v so_o much_o light_n and_o brightness_n in_o a_o candle_n what_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n &_o the_o glory_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o splendour_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v ten_o thousand_o time_n bright_a than_o the_o sun_n if_o you_o do_v thus_o use_v the_o world_n you_o will_v not_o abuse_v it_o if_o the_o creature_n be_v so_o full_a of_o goodness_n and_o sweentess_n how_o full_a be_v god_n if_o there_o be_v such_o comfort_n in_o have_v a_o estate_n here_o below_o what_o comfort_n be_v there_o in_o have_v grace_n in_o our_o heart_n &_o to_o enjoy_v those_o treasure_n that_o be_v incorruptible_a and_o fade_v not_o away_o which_o neither_o the_o moth_a nor_o rust_n can_v corrupt_v nor_o thief_n break_v through_o and_o steal_v use_v the_o world_n as_o a_o looking-glass_n which_o cast_v a_o reflection_n not_o as_o a_o mudwall_n o_o belove_a if_o we_o can_v thus_o in_o the_o use_n of_o all_o creature_n comfort_n look_v up_o to_o god_n and_o reflect_v upon_o the_o giver_n of_o they_o we_o shall_v never_o abuse_v they_o 3._o you_o must_v use_v the_o comfort_n of_o the_o world_n weaned_o with_o wean_a affection_n from_o they_o thus_o david_n do_v though_o he_o be_v the_o king_n of_o israel_n and_o sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n yet_o he_o be_v as_o a_o wean_a child_n to_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n psal_n 131._o verse_n 1._o belove_a you_o that_o have_v great_a estate_n in_o the_o world_n shall_v yet_o live_v with_o wean_a affection_n from_o the_o world_n the_o scripture_n do_v not_o only_o enjoin_v christian_n to_o crucify_v the_o flesh_n but_o the_o world_n too_o they_o that_o be_v christ_n have_v not_o only_o crucify_v the_o flesh_n with_o the_o affection_n and_o lust_n as_o in_o gal._n 5.24_o but_o they_o be_v crucify_v to_o the_o world_n too_o thus_o paul_n be_v say_v he_o i_o be_o crucify_v to_o the_o world_n and_o the_o world_n be_v crucify_v to_o i_o the_o world_n

so_o much_o do_v he_o join_v in_o oppose_v resist_a quench_a and_o grieve_v of_o the_o spirit_n thus_o i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o double_a conflict_n between_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o spirit_n

this_o point_n you_o have_v not_o only_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o it_o be_v so_o with_o other_o man_n but_o also_o his_o own_o experience_n 7.21_o rom._n 8_o 18._o rom._n 7.21_o you_o have_v he_o complain_v that_o to_o will_v be_v present_a but_o how_o to_o perform_v that_o which_o be_v good_a i_o find_v not_o that_o when_o he_o will_v do_v good_a evil_a be_v present_a with_o

of_o man_n nature_n that_o hinder_v he_o from_o the_o do_n of_o good_a and_o there_o be_v these_o twelve_o stratagem_n which_o corrupt_a nature_n use_v to_o this_o end_n 1._o the_o flesh_n hinder_v
