upon_o we_o no_o more_o than_o be_v necssary_a physician_n will_v not_o minister_v a_o strong_a potion_n where_o a_o lenitive_a be_v enough_o nor_o put_v one_o dram_n too_o much_o in_o his_o prescription_n much_o less_o will_v the_o lord_n nay_o we_o ourselves_o if_o one_o medicine_n do_v not_o cure_v we_o we_o seek_v another_o thus_o deal_v god_n when_o affliction_n be_v grow_v ordinary_a and_o usual_a they_o move_v the_o less_o because_o they_o be_v familiar_a therefore_o god_n be_v please_v to_o alter_v and_o change_v his_o medicine_n that_o they_o may_v work_v the_o more_o kind_o he_o proportion_v out_o the_o measure_n of_o affliction_n according_a to_o the_o scant_a measure_n of_o our_o necessity_n for_o the_o magnify_n of_o his_o own_o glory_n by_o our_o sanctification_n in_o this_o life_n and_o our_o salvation_n in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v alas_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o take_v any_o delight_n in_o our_o smart_n or_o make_v any_o haste_n to_o inflict_v his_o chastisement_n but_o with_o patience_n and_o long-suffering_a he_o expect_v our_o repentance_n that_o he_o may_v have_v mercy_n upon_o we_o and_o do_v not_o take_v his_o rod_n of_o correction_n into_o his_o hand_n till_o he_o be_v press_v with_o the_o weight_n of_o our_o sin_n he_o do_v not_o punish_v we_o willing_o as_o one_o that_o take_v delight_n in_o our_o smart_n and_o torment_v but_o perform_v it_o as_o a_o action_n which_o be_v rather_o fit_a for_o we_o to_o suffer_v than_o for_o he_o to_o do_v let_v we_o conclude_v therefore_o that_o if_o we_o have_v great_a or_o tedious_a affliction_n lie_v upon_o we_o either_o we_o have_v great_a fault_n or_o great_a stomach_n we_o many_o time_n deal_v with_o god_n as_o child_n do_v with_o their_o parent_n while_o they_o be_v under_o the_o rod_n promise_v amendment_n but_o no_o soon_o release_v but_o present_o we_o be_v as_o bad_a as_o ever_o and_o therefore_o though_o god_n may_v ease_v we_o to_o try_v we_o sometime_o yet_o when_o he_o lengthen_v our_o affliction_n he_o will_v take_v our_o word_n no_o more_o but_o will_v make_v a_o through_o work_n and_o till_o he_o see_v we_o thorough_o humble_v and_o amend_v and_o know_v that_o our_o conversion_n and_o repentance_n be_v constant_a and_o without_o danger_n of_o fleet_a he_o will_v not_o burn_v the_o rod._n but_o as_o the_o goldsmith_n let_v his_o gold_n melt_v in_o the_o furnace_n till_o it_o be_v thorough_o purify_v and_o purge_v from_o its_o dross_n which_o when_o he_o perceive_v it_o according_a to_o his_o mind_n will_v by_o no_o mean_n suffer_v it_o to_o stay_v there_o any_o long_o because_o it_o will_v but_o waste_v and_o loose_a of_o his_o weight_n so_o do_v the_o lord_n suffer_v we_o to_o remain_v in_o the_o furnace_n of_o affliction_n till_o we_o be_v purge_v from_o our_o dross_n of_o sin_n by_o renew_v our_o faith_n and_o repentance_n but_o no_o soon_o be_v we_o according_a to_o his_o purpose_n purify_v but_o he_o pull_v we_o out_o and_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o waste_v and_o consume_v ourselves_o with_o sorrow_n and_o heaviness_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o patient_o endure_v the_o trial_n see_v god_n who_o put_v we_o into_o the_o furnace_n know_v the_o best_a time_n when_o to_o take_v we_o out_o and_o by_o this_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o our_o affliction_n be_v limit_v both_o in_o regard_n of_o their_o weight_n and_o measure_n god_n have_v say_v to_o our_o sorrow_n as_o to_o the_o proud_a wave_n of_o the_o sea_n hither_o shall_v you_o come_v and_o no_o far_o all_o the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o abate_v they_o nor_o all_o the_o man_n on_o earth_n or_o devil_n in_o hell_n to_o add_v one_o scruple_n to_o they_o and_o while_o god_n unto_o his_o child_n measure_v judgement_n according_a to_o their_o strength_n he_o render_v judgement_n to_o the_o wicked_a according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o their_o sin_n 5_o another_o consideration_n be_v that_o our_o affliction_n be_v not_o the_o punishment_n of_o a_o righteous_a judge_n but_o the_o chastisement_n of_o a_o gracious_a father_n and_o this_o the_o apostle_n persuade_v heb._n 12.6_o 7_o 8._o my_o son_n despise_v not_o thou_o the_o chastn_n of_o the_o lord_n nor_o faint_v when_o thou_o be_v rebuke_v of_o he_o for_o who_o the_o lord_n love_v he_o chastn_v and_o scourge_v every_o son_n who_o he_o receive_v etc._n etc._n god_n indeed_o be_v displease_v not_o with_o the_o person_n for_o his_o hatred_n to_o the_o sin_n but_o with_o the_o sin_n for_o the_o love_n of_o the_o person_n he_o be_v not_o angry_a in_o justice_n because_o we_o have_v sin_v so_o much_o as_o in_o mercy_n that_o we_o may_v sin_v no_o more_o and_o therefore_o we_o may_v sometime_o lie_v under_o anger_n but_o never_o under_o wrath_n it_o be_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o suffer_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o satisfy_v divine_a justice_n he_o bear_v the_o punishment_n which_o be_v due_a unto_o sin_n and_o discharge_v our_o debt_n by_o offer_v up_o himself_o unto_o his_o father_n as_o a_o sufficient_a sacrifice_n and_o pay_v a_o price_n of_o infinite_a value_n and_o merit_n for_o our_o redemption_n 6_o god_n have_v preordain_v those_o to_o be_v like_o christ_n in_o his_o suffering_n who_o shall_v be_v like_o he_o in_o glory_n we_o must_v be_v content_a to_o drink_v with_o christ_n in_o his_o bitter_a cup_n before_o we_o shall_v be_v exalt_v to_o sit_v with_o he_o in_o his_o kingdom_n and_o this_o the_o apostle_n peter_n affirm_v 1_o pet._n 2.21_o for_o christ_n also_o suffer_v for_o we_o leave_v we_o a_o example_n that_o we_o shall_v follow_v his_o step_n if_o we_o will_v feast_v with_o christ_n in_o heaven_n we_o must_v be_v content_a to_o fast_o with_o he_o on_o earth_n if_o there_o we_o will_v keep_v a_o everlasting_a sabbath_n with_o he_o in_o his_o kingdom_n we_o must_v labour_v and_o travel_v whilst_o those_o work_a day_n last_o that_o be_v a_o sweet_a speech_n of_o bernard_n thou_o oh_o lord_n jesus_n say_v he_o art_n to_o i_o both_o a_o example_n and_o reward_n of_o suffering_n and_o both_o do_v strong_o provoke_v and_o vehement_o inflame_v i_o thou_o teach_v my_o hand_n to_o fight_v by_o the_o example_n of_o thy_o fortitude_n and_o after_o victory_n thou_o crown_v my_o head_n with_o the_o presence_n of_o thy_o majesty_n oh_o if_o thou_o be_v so_o good_a to_o those_o that_o seek_v and_o run_v after_o thou_o what_o will_v thou_o be_v to_o those_o who_o find_v and_o possess_v thou_o if_o the_o prince_n of_o our_o salvation_n be_v consecrate_v by_o affliction_n why_o shall_v we_o expect_v a_o privilege_n above_o he_o it_o be_v not_o suitable_a and_o fit_a that_o a_o afflict_a head_n shall_v have_v a_o pamper_a body_n and_o member_n it_o become_v not_o the_o servant_n to_o live_v in_o idleness_n and_o pleasure_n when_o as_o the_o master_n weari_v himself_o with_o pain_n and_o labour_n how_o can_v we_o be_v call_v his_o disciple_n if_o we_o be_v not_o content_a to_o walk_v in_o his_o step_n for_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v phil._n 3.10_o 11._o if_o we_o will_v know_v he_o and_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o resurrection_n we_o must_v first_o have_v fellowship_n with_o he_o in_o his_o affliction_n and_o be_v make_v conformable_a unto_o his_o death_n if_o by_o any_o mean_n we_o may_v attain_v unto_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a ah_o if_o we_o will_v often_o meditate_v of_o those_o affliction_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n do_v suffer_v and_o that_o to_o bring_v we_o to_o heaven_n we_o will_v not_o pore_v upon_o our_o own_o so_o much_o as_o we_o do_v will_v we_o but_o think_v when_o we_o suffer_v poverty_n and_o be_v pinch_v with_o worldly_a want_n what_o the_o lord_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n sustain_v he_o be_v destitute_a of_o earthly_a comfort_n and_o have_v not_o a_o house_n to_o lay_v his_o head_n when_o we_o be_v injurious_o traduce_v and_o injust_o slander_v and_o abuse_v let_v we_o call_v to_o mind_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n who_o be_v without_o spot_n or_o blemish_n most_o innocent_a and_o full_a of_o all_o goodness_n even_o he_o be_v call_v a_o wine-bibber_n a_o friend_n to_o publican_n and_o sinner_n a_o imposter_n and_o one_o that_o do_v all_o his_o miracle_n by_o the_o help_n of_o the_o devil_n when_o we_o be_v ill_o requite_v by_o those_o of_o who_o we_o have_v better_o deserve_v forsake_v by_o our_o friend_n in_o the_o time_n of_o our_o need_n and_o betray_v by_o those_o who_o stand_v oblige_v unto_o we_o by_o many_o benefit_n and_o to_o who_o we_o have_v commit_v the_o very_a secret_n of_o our_o soul_n oh_o let_v we_o think_v our_o dear_a lord_n be_v worse_o use_v before_o we_o for_o those_o he_o come_v to_o save_v seek_v his_o destruction_n his_o disciple_n
