A96104 Jerusalems glory, or, the saints safetie in eying the churches security, wherein is shewed the captives redress: being an invitation to all the different minded men in the world to become one; with the advantage of unity, and the danger of variety from the example of the saints and servants of God, as well in former as these latter times. Offered to the view of the 97 builders imployed in that work, for the building of the true temple, and all others. / By Thomas Watson, a lover of peace. Watson, Thomas, d. 1686. 1661 (1661) Wing W1131; Thomason E1856_4; ESTC R210370 59,985 120

for_o we_o may_v seem_v here_o before_o man_n to_o be_v zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n and_o it_o may_v be_v think_v real_o that_o we_o be_v so_o do_v but_o mark_v what_o solomon_n say_v there_o be_v a_o way_n that_o seem_v right_a but_o the_o end_n be_v the_o end_n of_o death_n proverb_n 14.12_o and_o in_o esayah_n 1.11_o unto_o what_o purpose_n be_v the_o multitude_n of_o your_o sacrifice_n to_o i_o i_o be_o full_a of_o your_o burnt-offering_n and_o your_o sacrifice_n i_o desire_v not_o so_o much_o of_o this_o manner_n of_o ceremonial_a service_n without_o you_o will_v work_v the_o effect_n of_o they_o that_o be_v to_o cease_v to_o do_v evil_a and_o that_o they_o will_v learn_v to_o do_v well_o and_o seek_v judgement_n and_o relieve_v the_o oppress_v and_o judge_v the_o fatherless_a and_o plead_v for_o the_o widow_n and_o then_o come_v unto_o i_o and_o i_o will_v reason_n with_o you_o and_o though_o your_o sin_n be_v as_o red_a as_o scarlet_a they_o shall_v be_v as_o white_a as_o

delight_v himself_o in_o we_o but_o if_o we_o forget_v to_o bring_v these_o with_o we_o we_o have_v better_a to_o stay_v away_o than_o come_v before_o god_n in_o vain_a to_o expect_v a_o blessing_n when_o there_o be_v none_o assign_v for_o we_o it_o be_v to_o as_o much_o purpose_n for_o a_o man_n to_o think_v he_o have_v a_o true_a faith_n in_o christ_n when_o he_o have_v not_o charity_n as_o it_o be_v for_o a_o builder_n to_o think_v to_o build_v a_o tower_n when_o he_o have_v but_o one_o stone_n to_o build_v it_o do_v you_o not_o mind_n what_o the_o apostle_n james_n say_v to_o such_o

believe_v there_o be_v a_o god_n even_o so_o pharaoh_n king_n of_o egypt_n exod._n 9.27_o he_o do_v believe_v there_o be_v a_o god_n in_o israel_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o obey_v he_o nor_o leave_v the_o worship_v of_o idol_n till_o the_o lord_n do_v overthrow_v he_o and_o his_o host_n into_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o sea_n and_o as_o you_o may_v read_v of_o nabuchadnezzar_n daniel_n 3_o he_o

and_o bounty_n and_o strength_n how_o will_v all_o people_n stand_v revile_v of_o our_o god_n and_o disdain_v our_o way_n of_o worship_n if_o they_o shall_v see_v we_o walk_v undiscret_o and_o loose_o they_o will_v be_v apt_a to_o say_v lo_o behold_v how_o profane_a and_o vain_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v for_o such_o and_o such_o man_n who_o profess_v they_o walk_v in_o a_o high_a and_o more_o clear_a

poor_a brother_n be_v altogether_o as_o precious_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n as_o thou_o this_o thy_o undiscret_a and_o vain_a carriage_n do_v give_v thy_o enemy_n advantage_n to_o revile_v thou_o and_o to_o defame_v thy_o brethren_n and_o to_o blaspheme_v the_o worthy_a name_n of_o our_o god_n whereas_o if_o we_o walk_v more_o strict_o more_o wise_o and_o more_o charitable_o the_o mouth_n of_o all_o such_o people_n will_v be_v stop_v and_o they_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o commend_v thy_o way_n of_o worship_n &_o to_o praise_v those_o that_o you_o do_v associate_v yourselves_o withal_o and_o to_o glorify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n by_o which_o you_o be_v call_v so_o that_o if_o you_o will_v profess_v yourselves_o to_o be_v servant_n of_o god_n you_o must_v walk_v in_o the_o way_n of_o godliness_n and_o think_v not_o that_o it_o be_v the_o performance_n of_o your_o duty_n to_o talk_v of_o charity_n and_o love_n but_o you_o must_v make_v it_o your_o business_n to_o administer_v and_o

do_v not_o come_v so_o frequent_o as_o they_o be_v use_v to_o do_v for_o he_o that_o know_v not_o how_o to_o suffer_v with_o he_o never_o know_v how_o to_o rejoice_v with_o he_o and_o he_o that_o be_v

must_v confess_v i_o hardly_o do_v ever_o read_v that_o any_o moralist_n can_v suffer_v for_o what_o he_o do_v maintain_v or_o seek_v to_o maintain_v if_o he_o can_v any_o way_n prevent_v his_o

they_o know_v that_o as_o i_o do_v not_o conclude_v the_o scripture_n to_o be_v void_a of_o reason_n so_o also_o i_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v beyond_o the_o moral_a reason_n of_o man_n to_o find_v out_o the_o depth_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o as_o concern_v war_n i_o must_v count_v it_o be_v a_o thing_n in_o fashion_n in_o our_o day_n and_o for_o i_o to_o seek_v to_o alter_v this_o fashion_n i_o shall_v lie_v liable_a to_o the_o censure_n of_o man_n yet_o let_v the_o scripture_n be_v true_a and_o have_v that_o respect_n to_o they_o that_o you_o shall_v have_v and_o then_o let_v i_o be_v what_o you_o please_v i_o shall_v be_v brief_a in_o this_o particular_a at_o this_o time_n only_o refer_v you_o to_o those_o word_n of_o christ_n that_o he_o leave_v with_o his_o disciple_n mat._n

a_o enemy_n to_o god_n and_o as_o you_o read_v in_o the_o first_o book_n of_o the_o chronicle_n 28._o and_o 3._o but_o god_n say_v unto_o i_o thou_o shall_v not_o build_v a_o house_n for_o my_o name_n because_o thou_o have_v be_v a_o man_n of_o war_n and_o have_v shed_v blood_n so_o that_o if_o that_o temple_n of_o god_n can_v not_o be_v build_v by_o blood_n that_o be_v but_o a_o type_n of_o the_o true_a temple_n sure_o the_o true_a temple_n can_v be_v build_v with_o blood_n or_o war_n but_o in_o peace_n it_o be_v not_o that_o egypt_n be_v righteous_a enough_o to_o build_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o lord_n though_o they_o may_v be_v make_v a_o scourge_n to_o edom_n as_o nabuchadnezzar_n be_v to_o israel_n i_o will_v not_o accuse_v a_o defensive_a sword_n because_o i_o have_v see_v that_o the_o manifestation_n of_o god_n be_v not_o all_o of_o they_o make_v know_v to_o any_o one_o man_n but_o i_o can_v find_v that_o any_o disciple_n of_o christ_n shall_v use_v a_o moral_a sword_n as_o he_o be_v a_o disciple_n of_o christ_n or_o a_o builder_n of_o the_o true_a temple_n for_o he_o that_o be_v a_o builder_n of_o the_o true_a temple_n ought_v not_o to_o take_v revenge_n against_o his_o enemy_n but_o commit_v his_o cause_n to_o the_o lord_n to_o who_o vengeance_n belong_v and_o therefore_o christ_n bid_v we_o to_o forgive_v our_o enemy_n lest_o we_o shall_v seek_v vengeance_n where_o god_n seek_v none_o for_o we_o be_v apt_a to_o condemn_v where_o god_n justify_v and_o to_o set_v ourselves_o upon_o his_o seat_n where_o be_v any_o of_o god_n messenger_n but_o have_v receive_v this_o censure_n from_o the_o man_n of_o their_o time_n therefore_o lest_o we_o shall_v be_v liable_a to_o this_o fail_v christ_n warn_v we_o not_o to_o judge_v our_o brethren_n lest_o we_o be_v judge_v for_o to_o his_o own_o master_n he_o stand_v or_o fall_v nay_o we_o be_v forbid_v to_o judge_v according_a to_o what_o it_o appear_v to_o we_o john_n 7.24_o judge_v not_o according_a to_o

as_o we_o can_v measure_v god_n love_n let_v we_o forbear_v judge_v ourselves_o to_o be_v better_a than_o other_o lest_o we_o undervalue_v christ_n suffering_n but_o as_o concern_v a_o offensive_a

5.44_o so_o shall_v you_o approve_v yourselves_o child_n of_o your_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n but_o i_o suppose_v that_o christ_n do_v never_o advise_v any_o of_o his_o disciple_n to_o go_v to_o war_n with_o the_o worst_a of_o their_o enemy_n nor_o to_o fight_v for_o a_o kingdom_n of_o this_o world_n but_o rather_o suffrr_v by_o the_o man_n of_o this_o world_n if_o one_o must_v be_v and_o as_o for_o his_o advice_n to_o the_o soldier_n i_o suppose_v it_o be_v rather_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o break_v their_o engagement_n in_o what_o they_o be_v engage_v in_o as_o in_o respect_n to_o their_o governor_n or_o their_o loyalty_n to_o their_o promise_n rather_o than_o his_o own_n of_o the_o war_n to_o be_v according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n for_o those_o for_o who_o they_o fight_v be_v such_o as_o christ_n do_v condemn_v to_o be_v mere_a worldling_n and_o therefore_o how_o can_v their_o cause_n be_v good_a and_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o advise_v they_o to_o break_v
