church_n in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o lamentation_n as_o if_o she_o shall_v say_v well_o the_o temptation_n say_v that_o god_n have_v leave_v i_o the_o devil_n say_v thus_o i_o but_o thou_o be_v my_o portion_n say_v my_o soul_n that_o be_v comfortable_a if_o so_o be_v that_o god_n speak_v peace_n it_o be_v more_o than_o if_o our_o own_o soul_n speak_v peace_n thou_o shall_v choose_v our_o inheritance_n thy_o choice_n be_v better_a than_o our_o own_o if_o we_o have_v always_o what_o be_v good_a in_o our_o own_o eye_n woe_n be_v to_o we_o we_o be_v undo_v you_o will_v not_o think_v it_o but_o certain_o it_o be_v as_o heavy_a a_o judgement_n as_o can_v befall_v one_o in_o this_o world_n that_o god_n shall_v say_v you_o shall_v do_v and_o you_o shall_v have_v what_o be_v good_a in_o your_o own_o eye_n suppose_v that_o god_n shall_v say_v but_o this_o morning_n concern_v every_o one_o of_o you_o well_o you_o shall_v hencforward_o have_v whatsoever_o be_v good_a in_o your_o own_o eye_n why_o you_o will_v think_v that_o you_o may_v go_v away_o and_o be_v glad_a of_o this_o glad_a you_o have_v cause_n of_o go_v away_o with_o ring_v of_o hand_n and_o howl_v and_o cry_v if_o god_n shall_v say_v thus_o concern_v any_o of_o you_o o_o no_o it_o be_v better_a that_o our_o life_n liberty_n estate_n comfort_n happiness_n and_o all_o be_v in_o god_n hand_n than_o our_o own_o to_o be_v dispose_v of_o so_o as_o seem_v good_a in_o god_n eye_n rather_o than_o to_o be_v dispose_v of_o so_o as_o seem_v good_a in_o our_o own_o eye_n i_o very_o believe_v that_o many_o of_o you_o may_v be_v able_a to_o look_v back_o to_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n towards_o you_o and_o to_o say_v that_o suppose_v god_n have_v twenty_o year_n ago_o say_v to_o i_o i_o will_v give_v you_o leave_v to_o dispose_v of_o yourselves_o as_o you_o will_v o_o many_o may_v be_v able_a to_o say_v they_o certain_o can_v never_o have_v dispose_v so_o well_o of_o themselves_o as_o god_n have_v and_o they_o will_v be_v loath_a to_o go_v back_o again_o to_o the_o twenty_o year_n past_a though_o they_o shall_v begin_v and_o have_v liberty_n to_o dispose_v of_o themselves_o as_o they_o please_v in_o heb._n 12._o 11._o say_v the_o apostle_n there_o no_o affliction_n for_o the_o present_a seem_v joyous_a to_o we_o but_o grievous_a but_o afterward_o say_v the_o text_n it_o work_v thus_o and_o thus_o ay_o but_o thing_n do_v seem_v to_o god_n as_o they_o be_v present_a always_o but_o they_o do_v not_o seem_v so_o to_o we_o till_o afterward_o after_o the_o affliction_n be_v over_o then_o they_o seem_v good_a to_o we_o but_o they_o seem_v good_a to_o god_n at_o the_o very_a present_a we_o judge_v thing_n by_o the_o outward_a appearance_n but_o god_n judge_n thing_n according_a to_o what_o they_o be_v thing_n seem_v to_o we_o according_a as_o they_o either_o make_v for_o or_o against_o our_o outward_a good_a we_o be_v lead_v so_o much_o by_o sense_n but_o they_o seem_v to_o god_n according_a as_o they_o be_v for_o or_o against_o his_o glory_n and_o the_o last_o good_a of_o all_o they_o seem_v good_a or_o ill_a to_o we_o according_a as_o they_o be_v for_o or_o against_o some_o particular_a good_a if_o they_o strike_v at_o such_o a_o particular_a we_o judge_v by_o particular_n but_o now_o god_n he_o judge_n thing_n by_o the_o proportion_n they_o have_v to_o the_o general_a to_o all_o thing_n at_o once_o it_o be_v that_o that_o make_v we_o to_o give_v very_o wrong_a judgement_n of_o thing_n when_o we_o look_v but_o to_o particular_n and_o do_v not_o compare_v one_o with_o another_o and_o raise_v a_o judgement_n upon_o thing_n all_o thing_n consider_v so_o god_n do_v god_n do_v not_o so_o much_o look_v at_o thing_n how_o they_o be_v in_o reference_n to_o this_o or_o the_o other_o good_a but_o how_o thing_n be_v in_o reference_n to_o all_o together_o in_o the_o general_a we_o know_v some_o thing_n may_v cross_v some_o particular_a but_o they_o may_v be_v useful_a to_o another_o now_o that_o that_o be_v good_a in_o the_o general_n do_v seem_v good_a to_o god_n though_o it_o may_v go_v cross_a to_o some_o particular_a and_o then_o further_o we_o look_v at_o thing_n but_o just_a as_o they_o appear_v present_a to_o we_o but_o now_o god_n look_v upon_o thing_n as_o they_o shall_v be_v a_o great_a while_n hence_o god_n be_v work_v that_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o understand_v perhaps_o in_o our_o life_n or_o work_v in_o his_o administration_n towards_o we_o some_o thing_n that_o he_o intend_v shall_v come_v to_o pass_v a_o great_a while_n hence_o so_o that_o if_o they_o come_v to_o pass_v in_o our_o life_n yet_o we_o shall_v not_o have_v the_o fruit_n of_o they_o for_o many_o year_n god_n he_o look_v a_o great_a way_n off_o wherefore_o learn_v by_o this_o not_o to_o be_v too_o sudden_a nor_o so_o peremptory_a in_o the_o judge_n of_o god_n administration_n why_o why_o because_o whatever_o they_o may_v seem_v to_o you_o they_o may_v seem_v otherwise_o to_o god_n stay_v till_o you_o know_v god_n judgement_n about_o they_o as_o you_o if_o you_o have_v any_o wisdom_n when_o you_o hear_v of_o strange_a rumour_n if_o you_o know_v that_o there_o be_v any_o that_o know_v the_o thing_n better_o than_o you_o you_o will_v not_o give_v a_o judgement_n upon_o it_o till_o you_o have_v the_o judgement_n of_o such_o and_o such_o that_o you_o know_v may_v understand_v it_o better_o than_o yourself_o so_o in_o the_o way_n of_o god_n towards_o we_o let_v not_o we_o present_o give_v a_o judgement_n upon_o those_o thing_n but_o let_v we_o stay_v first_o till_o we_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n o_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o resign_v up_o our_o judgement_n to_o god_n and_o let_v he_o judge_n neither_o let_v we_o trouble_v ourselves_o about_o other_o man_n judgement_n as_o thing_n seem_v otherwise_o to_o god_n than_o to_o we_o so_o they_o seem_v otherwise_o to_o god_n than_o to_o other_o man_n as_o we_o shall_v not_o trust_v too_o much_o to_o the_o judgement_n of_o our_o own_o heart_n so_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o much_o trouble_v at_o other_o man_n judgement_n for_o whatever_o they_o think_v still_o it_o be_v otherwise_o in_o god_n account_n man_n they_o will_v say_v it_o be_v for_o this_o cause_n and_o the_o other_o cause_n and_o the_o like_a but_o it_o be_v otherwise_o conclude_v in_o heaven_n and_o that_o be_v the_o three_o point_n the_o last_o shall_v have_v be_v this_o that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o christian_n after_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o ado_n to_o submit_v to_o god_n that_o be_v after_o the_o affliction_n have_v be_v upon_o they_o a_o great_a while_n and_o when_o they_o see_v they_o can_v help_v themselves_o then_o to_o begin_v to_o have_v thought_n of_o yield_v to_o god_n it_o be_v well_o that_o they_o do_v it_o at_o last_o o_o but_o it_o be_v more_o commendable_a a_o great_a deal_n if_o we_o do_v it_o at_o first_o at_o what_o instant_a god_n strike_v present_o for_o the_o heart_n to_o come_v in_o and_o yield_v as_o it_o be_v a_o most_o excellent_a thing_n to_o yield_v to_o god_n word_n when_o god_n first_o speak_v upon_o the_o least_o intimation_n of_o god_n will_n o_o this_o be_v acceptable_a unto_o god_n for_o those_o that_o be_v young_a one_o the_o first_o time_n they_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n or_o if_o not_o the_o first_o time_n they_o come_v to_o hear_v it_o yet_o the_o first_o time_n god_n speak_v to_o their_o heart_n the_o very_a first_o word_n that_o speak_v present_o for_o they_o to_o yield_v it_o be_v a_o most_o excellent_a thing_n so_o in_o the_o time_n of_o affliction_n for_o the_o heart_n to_o bow_v and_o submit_v present_o to_o god_n o_o this_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o much_o cleanness_n that_o there_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n that_o the_o heart_n be_v very_o clean_a that_o there_o be_v not_o much_o corruption_n there_o for_o then_o there_o will_v be_v a_o stand_v out_o against_o god_n and_o it_o will_v manifest_v itself_o in_o time_n of_o affliction_n as_o we_o know_v where_o there_o be_v corruption_n in_o the_o body_n it_o will_v manifest_v itself_o if_o it_o come_v to_o endure_v hardship_n so_o it_o be_v with_o the_o soul_n etc._n etc._n and_o it_o argue_v much_o grace_n as_o little_a corruption_n so_o there_o be_v strength_n of_o grace_n that_o can_v make_v the_o heart_n bow_v present_o to_o god_n when_o grace_n reign_v in_o the_o heart_n when_o grace_n can_v say_v come_v and_o the_o soul_n come_v go_v and_o it_o go_v when_o grace_n can_v say_v this_o be_v the_o administration_n of_o god_n towards_o you_o and_o now_o you_o must_v work_v thus_o and_o present_o the_o soul_n do_v it_o it_o shall_v not_o
o_o the_o lord_n the_o lord_n forbid_v but_o let_v i_o the_o rather_o embrace_v it_o by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o it_o be_v neglect_v and_o disregard_v by_o other_o what_o shall_v such_o a_o glorious_a gospel_n be_v preach_v in_o vain_a what_o shall_v the_o precious_a blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v shed_v in_o vain_a and_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a in_o respect_n of_o many_o soul_n and_o shall_v it_o be_v in_o respect_n of_o my_o soul_n the_o lord_n forbid_v o_o that_o the_o lord_n will_v put_v such_o kind_n of_o thought_n into_o your_o heart_n when_o you_o see_v other_o live_v under_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o a_o sinful_a way_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o supposition_n if_o not_o what_o follow_v if_o not_o let_v it_o return_v to_o you_o again_o here_o we_o have_v first_o a_o encouragement_n to_o god_n minister_n in_o case_n their_o ministry_n be_v reject_v and_o second_o a_o dreadful_a denunciation_n against_o those_o that_o shall_v reject_v the_o gospel_n first_o the_o encouragement_n of_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n in_o case_n their_o ministry_n be_v reject_v let_v it_o return_v to_o you_o again_o in_o this_o we_o have_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o when_o any_o minister_n preach_v christ_n to_o a_o people_n if_o the_o people_n get_v no_o good_a by_o his_o preach_v yet_o he_o shall_v have_v the_o benefit_n of_o it_o upon_o his_o own_o soul_n that_o be_v the_o first_o let_v it_o return_v to_o you_o again_o if_o they_o will_v not_o embrace_v it_o so_o as_o to_o have_v the_o good_a and_o benefit_n of_o it_o to_o they_o it_o shall_v return_v to_o you_o and_o you_o shall_v have_v the_o benefit_n and_o blessing_n of_o it_o upon_o your_o own_o soul_n second_o let_v it_o return_v that_o be_v though_o it_o prevail_v not_o here_o yet_o it_o shall_v not_o lose_v any_o thing_n of_o its_o efficacy_n of_o the_o life_n of_o the_o vigour_n of_o it_o but_o it_o shall_v return_v to_o you_o with_o as_o much_o efficacy_n and_o life_n as_o ever_o so_o as_o if_o you_o be_v send_v to_o some_o other_o place_n there_o may_v be_v as_o much_o hope_n of_o do_v good_a as_o ever_o you_o have_v these_o be_v the_o two_o thing_n that_o be_v for_o the_o encouragement_n of_o god_n minister_n in_o case_n their_o ministry_n be_v reject_v brief_o of_o these_o first_o that_o whena_fw-la people_n reject_v the_o gospel_n god_n minister_n they_o shall_v not_o lose_v by_o it_o they_o shall_v have_v the_o blessing_n of_o their_o ministry_n in_o isai_n 49._o 4._o then_o i_o say_v i_o have_v labour_v in_o vain_a i_o have_v spend_v my_o strength_n for_o nought_o and_o in_o vain_a here_o be_v a_o dreadful_a complaint_n but_o mark_v what_o follow_v yet_o sure_o my_o judgement_n be_v with_o the_o lord_n and_o my_o work_n with_o my_o god_n there_o be_v a_o correct_v of_o himself_o as_o it_o be_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v what_o do_v i_o say_v it_o be_v in_o vain_a that_o i_o have_v spend_v my_o strength_n in_o vain_a to_o no_o purpose_n that_o i_o have_v get_v nothing_o by_o what_o i_o have_v do_v no_o let_v i_o correct_v myself_o sure_o my_o judgement_n be_v with_o the_o lord_n and_o my_o work_n with_o my_o god_n i_o shall_v not_o lose_v my_o labour_n though_o i_o do_v no_o good_a upon_o people_n yet_o i_o shall_v not_o lose_v my_o labour_n the_o truth_n be_v even_o this_o complaint_n be_v not_o speak_v so_o much_o in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o prophet_n as_o of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v a_o complaint_n of_o christ_n for_o it_o be_v apparent_a in_o the_o read_n of_o this_o chapter_n that_o it_o be_v prophetical_a of_o christ_n for_o it_o follow_v and_o now_o say_v the_o lord_n that_o form_v i_o from_o the_o womb_n to_o be_v his_o servant_n to_o bring_v jacob_n again_o to_o he_o though_o israel_n be_v not_o gather_v yet_o shall_v i_o be_v glorious_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o my_o god_n shall_v be_v my_o strength_n and_o he_o say_v it_o be_v a_o light_a thing_n that_o thou_o shall_v be_v my_o servant_n to_o raise_v up_o the_o tribe_n of_o jacob_n and_o to_o restore_v the_o preserve_v of_o israel_n i_o will_v also_o give_v you_o for_o a_o light_n to_o the_o gentile_n that_o thou_o may_v be_v my_o salvation_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n etc._n etc._n now_o who_o be_v he_o that_o be_v a_o light_n to_o the_o gentile_n and_o the_o salvation_n of_o god_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n it_o be_v jesus_n christ_n and_o yet_o christ_n himself_o be_v bring_v in_o here_o complain_v that_o he_o have_v labour_v in_o vain_a and_o spend_v his_o strength_n

indeed_o of_o all_o work_n it_o be_v the_o hard_a work_n for_o a_o man_n to_o go_v on_o comfortable_o in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n without_o success_n there_o be_v no_o work_n so_o hard_o
