we_o be_v partaker_n of_o this_o gracious_a frame_n of_o spirit_n to_o fear_v the_o lord_n in_o truth_n this_o be_v a_o lesson_n which_o the_o spirit_n teach_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v by_o the_o spirit_n that_o david_n cry_v out_o come_v you_o child_n and_o hearken_v unto_o i_o and_o i_o will_v teach_v you_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n psa_n 34.11_o and_o this_o god_n have_v promise_v to_o

this_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o believer_n 3_o i_o say_v it_o be_v through_o the_o discovery_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n and_o work_n by_o christ_n by_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n i_o understand_v his_o attribute_n when_o moses_n desire_v to_o see_v god_n glory_n he_o show_v he_o his_o attribute_n in_o exod._n 34.5_o 6._o he_o proclaim_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o what_o be_v it_o why_o the_o lord_n the_o lord_n god_n merciful_a and_o gracious_a long_o suffer_v and_o abundant_a in_o goodness_n and_o truth_n this_o be_v the_o discovery_n of_o god_n glory_n the_o discovery_n of_o his_o name_n 1_o he_o begin_v with_o his_o attribute_n that_o denote_v his_o sovereignty_n and_o dominion_n the_o lord_n solomon_n tell_v we_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o begin_n of_o wisdom_n and_o indeed_o until_o a_o soul_n understand_v something_o of_o the_o sovereignty_n and_o dominion_n of_o god_n over_o he_o he_o never_o come_v to_o make_v a_o right_a use_n of_o god_n love_n and_o goodness_n for_o until_o the_o soul_n come_v to_o see_v that_o god_n order_v all_o thing_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o that_o he_o be_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o great_a god_n to_o dispose_v of_o he_o as_o he_o will_v and_o that_o he_o can_v destroy_v he_o and_o cast_v he_o to_o hell_n if_o he_o please_v he_o can_v find_v any_o sweetness_n in_o the_o tender_v of_o grace_n in_o the_o gospel_n nor_o apply_v his_o soul_n in_o reality_n to_o they_o and_o therefore_o i_o find_v that_o when_o the_o prophet_n of_o god_n of_o old_a time_n bring_v god_n message_n to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n they_o usual_o speak_v to_o they_o as_o from_o the_o lord_n say_v thus_o say_v the_o lord_n you_o have_v it_o sometime_o twice_o in_o a_o verse_n set_v forth_o god_n right_a of_o sovereignty_n over_o they_o to_o who_o they_o deliver_v their_o message_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o be_v exceed_o needful_a to_o be_v set_v upon_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n when_o they_o come_v to_o hear_v god_n word_n or_o have_v any_o thing_n to_o do_v in_o his_o work_n when_o the_o soul_n consider_v god_n sovereignty_n over_o he_o it_o cause_v he_o to_o stand_v in_o awe_n and_o fear_v before_o he_o and_o therefore_o by_o this_o you_o may_v try_v yourselves_o whether_o this_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v in_o you_o or_o no_o do_v the_o lord_n ever_o show_v himself_o to_o you_o as_o the_o sovereign_a lord_n and_o make_v you_o to_o lie_v at_o his_o foot_n as_o dust_n and_o ash_n and_o as_o clay_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o potter_n for_o if_o ever_o god_n have_v wrought_v this_o fear_n in_o your_o heart_n this_o be_v your_o frame_n i_o know_v many_o have_v a_o notional_a knowledge_n of_o god_n sovereignty_n and_o be_v able_a to_o write_v book_n of_o it_o but_o be_v your_o heart_n real_o affect_v with_o it_o so_o as_o to_o lie_v low_a before_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o apprehension_n of_o it_o i_o find_v it_o hard_o in_o every_o action_n to_o know_v this_o god_n to_o be_v the_o sovereign_a lord_n of_o all_o and_o that_o he_o rule_v in_o all_o thing_n and_o we_o be_v to_o obey_v he_o in_o thought_n word_n and_o deed_n and_o to_o fear_v

follow_v the_o former_a much_o conduce_v to_o fear_v he_o when_o the_o soul_n consider_v that_o the_o great_a god_n that_o make_v the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n and_o before_o who_o all_o nation_n

do_v not_o first_o lay_v down_o those_o foundation_n truth_n of_o faith_n and_o order_n and_o though_o i_o will_v not_o ascribe_v over_o much_o to_o order_n yet_o you_o

the_o heaven_n as_o a_o curtain_n and_o spread_v they_o out_o as_o a_o tent_n to_o dwell_v in_o that_o bring_v prince_n to_o nothing_o and_o make_v the_o judge_n of_o the_o earth_n as_o vanity_n thus_o you_o see_v god_n power_n which_o be_v another_o of_o his_o attribute_n and_o do_v but_o person_n consider_v this_o who_o will_v not_o fear_v and_o tremble_v before_o he_o again_o this_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v very_o much_o keep_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o child_n of_o god_n by_o eye_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n and_o the_o work_n of_o god_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o description_n there_o be_v a_o hand_n of_o god_n in_o all_o thing_n that_o come_v to_o pass_v in_o the_o world_n but_o oh_o how_o many_o be_v there_o that_o live_v in_o the_o world_n like_o atheist_n not_o eye_v god_n at_o all_o or_o else_o perhaps_o a_o little_a at_o morning_n and_o evening_n i_o do_v not_o speak_v against_o this_o but_o their_o fault_n be_v they_o do_v not_o eye_n god_n continual_o and_o therefore_o if_o they_o have_v get_v a_o little_a of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n upon_o their_o heart_n after_o prayer_n in_o the_o morning_n they_o quick_o lose_v it_o by_o go_v out_o into_o the_o

david_n to_o set_v the_o lord_n always_o before_o we_o and_o you_o may_v see_v in_o that_o 107._o psalm_n at_o large_a how_o excellent_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n be_v set_v forth_o relate_v to_o various_a condition_n to_o raise_v up_o the_o heart_n of_o person_n to_o fear_v he_o and_o love_v he_o and_o praise_v he_o oh_o then_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o professor_n be_v find_v so_o light_a and_o vain_a in_o their_o conversation_n but_o because_o they_o do_v not_o eye_n god_n in_o his_o providence_n the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o real_o in_o their_o heart_n and_o continual_o before_o their_o eye_n if_o it_o be_v they_o dare_v not_o be_v so_o light_a and_o vain_a in_o their_o spirit_n as_o ofttimes_o they_o be_v and_o so_o also_o the_o great_a work_n of_o

in_o the_o description_n which_o further_o relate_v to_o the_o manner_n how_o this_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v wrought_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o that_o be_v by_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o vast_a disproportion_n which_o be_v between_o god_n and_o the_o creature_n this_o be_v that_o which_o tend_v much_o to_o the_o beget_n of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n in_o the_o heart_n consider_v those_o expression_n use_v by_o that_o servant_n of_o the_o lord_n abraham_n in_o his_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o gen._n 18.27_o behold_v now_o i_o have_v take_v upon_o i_o to_o speak_v unto_o the_o lord_n which_o be_o but_o dust_n and_o ash_n he_o do_v not_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o small_a matter_n to_o come_v and_o pray_v to_o god_n and_o speak_v to_o god_n as_o too_o many_o poor_a creature_n do_v that_o come_v to_o god_n without_o that_o reverence_n of_o he_o in_o their_o heart_n and_o such_o a_o gesture_n in_o their_o body_n both_o public_o and_o in_o their_o family_n and_o closet_n as_o become_v person_n in_o their_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n by_o prayer_n and_o so_o solomon_n press_v we_o to_o reverence_n and_o fear_v upon_o this_o account_n eccles_n 5.2_o be_v not_o rash_a with_o thy_o mouth_n nor_o let_v thy_o heart_n be_v hasty_a to_o utter_v any_o thing_n before_o god_n for_o god_n be_v in_o heaven_n and_o thou_o be_v upon_o earth_n therefore_o let_v thy_o word_n be_v few_o and_o also_o that_o forementioned_a place_n isa_n 40._o set_v forth_o the_o disproportion_n between_o god_n and_o the_o creature_n behold_v all_o nation_n before_o he_o be_v but_o as_o the_o drop_n of_o a_o bucket_n and_o as_o the_o small_a dust_n of_o the_o balance_n he_o take_v up_o the_o isle_n as_o a_o very_a little_a thing_n and_o therefore_o if_o man_n do_v but_o consider_v what_o this_o great_a god_n be_v they_o dare_v never_o walk_v proud_o before_o he_o nor_o speak_v proud_o against_o he_o but_o will_v even_o cast_v themselves_o upon_o the_o ground_n as_o those_o of_o old_a do_v when_o they_o speak_v to_o god_n and_o oh_o that_o the_o consideration_n of_o god_n greatness_n and_o that_o vast_a disproportion_n that_o be_v between_o he_o &_o we_o be_v more_o upon_o our_o heart_n that_o so_o we_o may_v fear_v before_o he_o continual_o and_o so_o i_o shall_v come_v in_o the_o five_o place_n to_o speak_v to_o this_o fear_n of_o god_n with_o respect_n to_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o and_o the_o fruit_n and_o effect_n of_o it_o which_o be_v set_v forth_o in_o the_o description_n by_o two_o thing_n first_o a_o think_v high_o of_o god_n in_o all_o his_o attribute_n second_o a_o have_a respect_n to_o all_o his_o commandment_n 1_o this_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v that_o whereby_o the_o soul_n be_v make_v to_o think_v high_o of_o god_n in_o all_o his_o attribute_n it_o bring_v a_o soul_n to_o think_v high_o of_o god_n name_n which_o be_v his_o attribute_n see_v it_o in_o david_n a_o man_n fear_v god_n psal_n 111.9_o 10._o holy_a and_o reverent_a be_v his_o name_n and_o he_o subjoin_v the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n etc._n etc._n 2_o this_o fear_n of_o god_n cause_v the_o soul_n to_o have_v respect_n to_o all_o god_n commandment_n the_o man_n that_o true_o fear_v god_n he_o tremble_v at_o the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v god_n say_v it_o it_o shall_v be_v do_v say_v the_o poor_a humble_a soul_n what_o ever_o it_o be_v that_o god_n command_v though_o it_o bring_v never_o so_o much_o loss_n or_o shame_n or_o suffer_v upon_o i_o yet_o if_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v in_o my_o heart_n i_o shall_v do_v it_o a_o soul_n that_o true_o fear_v god_n will_v endeavour_v to_o avoid_v in_o thought_n word_n or_o deed_n what_o ever_o offend_v god_n and_o dishonour_v god_n as_o he_o will_v avoid_v hell_n and_o therefore_o solomon_n tell_v we_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v to_o depart_v from_o evil_a prov._n 3.7_o yea_o to_o hate_n evil_a prov._n 8.13_o and_o therefore_o take_v a_o soul_n that_o have_v the_o fear_n of_o god_n upon_o his_o heart_n and_o he_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o dreadful_a thing_n to_o sin_n against_o god_n and_o to_o dishonour_n god_n in_o thought_n word_n or_o deed_n and_o therefore_o as_o much_o as_o may_v be_v such_o a_o soul_n will_v avoid_v the_o occasion_n of_o sin_n you_o may_v see_v it_o in_o agur_n in_o prov._n 30.8_o 9_o say_v he_o give_v i_o neither_o poverty_n nor_o riches_n and_o why_o because_o both_o those_o state_n be_v dangerous_a temptation_n to_o sin_n against_o god_n and_o the_o best_a way_n to_o avoid_v the_o sin_n be_v to_o avoid_v the_o temptation_n but_o alas_o how_o many_o be_v there_o in_o this_o our_o day_n that_o be_v bold_a and_o venturous_a upon_o temptation_n that_o will_v rush_v in_o upon_o they_o without_o fear_n how_o few_o be_v there_o that_o have_v this_o in_o their_o prayer_n to_o god_n lord_n give_v i_o not_o riches_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a how_o do_v many_o run_v into_o multitude_n of_o business_n in_o the_o world_n which_o so_o take_v up_o their_o time_n and_o heart_n that_o they_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o serve_v god_n in_o their_o generation_n not_o consider_v that_o of_o our_o saviour_n how_o hardly_o shall_v they_o that_o have_v riches_n enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n it_o teach_v the_o soul_n to_o avoid_v the_o occasion_n of_o sin_n and_o to_o abstain_v from_o all_o appearance_n of_o evil_a according_a to_o that_o of_o paul_n in_o 1_o thess_n 5.22_o and_o sure_o if_o we_o be_v to_o pray_v not_o to_o be_v lead_v into_o temptation_n than_o we_o be_v not_o to_o lead_v ourselves_o into_o temptation_n but_o first_o to_o seek_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o the_o righteousness_n thereof_o and_o all_o these_o thing_n shall_v be_v add_v unto_o you_o and_o thus_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n teach_v to_o abstain_v from_o what_o god_n have_v forbid_v and_o to_o do_v what_o god_n have_v require_v to_o think_v high_o of_o god_n in_o all_o his_o attribute_n and_o to_o have_v respect_n to_o all_o his_o commandment_n and_o thus_o you_o have_v the_o description_n open_v and_o prove_v concern_v the_o fear_n of_o god_n i_o can_v come_v to_o the_o other_o duty_n of_o give_v glory_n to_o his_o name_n and_o therefore_o shall_v make_v some_o application_n of_o what_o have_v be_v
