precept_n drive_v on_o to_o a_o endeavour_n of_o obedience_n and_o well-pleasing_a slavish_a fear_n force_v a_o man_n to_o do_v the_o duty_n some_o way_n or_o other_o without_o any_o regard_n to_o

the_o body_n for_o our_o thought_n be_v before_o his_o face_n the_o easy_a way_n of_o explain_v or_o understand_v the_o commandment_n be_v by_o divide_v the_o obedience_n due_a to_o every_o

but_o here_o we_o be_v to_o speak_v only_o of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n the_o true_a fear_n of_o god_n be_v to_o acknowledge_v the_o extreme_a anger_n of_o god_n against_o sin_n and_o his_o power_n to_o punish_v it_o and_o to_o esteem_v our_o displease_v of_o god_n or_o offend_v he_o and_o consequent_o a_o estrangedness_n from_o he_o as_o the_o great_a evil_n and_o therefore_o extreme_o to_o hate_v and_o detest_v sin_n and_o to_o be_v ready_a rather_o to_o suffer_v any_o evil_n than_o to_o offend_v in_o any_o thing_n or_o thus_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v from_o acknowledge_v of_o his_o wisdom_n power_n justice_n and_o right_o which_o he_o have_v over_o all_o creature_n and_o out_o of_o subjection_n unto_o he_o not_o willing_a to_o offend_v he_o 14._o levit._fw-la 19_o 14._o thou_o

so_o we_o stand_v in_o such_o a_o godly_a fear_n as_o not_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n but_o that_o which_o make_v for_o god_n glory_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o a_o servile_a fear_n whereby_o one_o

because_o of_o offend_v god_n thereby_o and_o in_o regard_n of_o calamity_n that_o we_o and_o other_o endure_v for_o sin_n and_o a_o fear_n of_o future_a sin_n and_o punishment_n with_o a_o ardent_a desire_n of_o avoid_v those_o evil_n through_o the_o acknowledge_v of_o god_n mercy_n show_v to_o we_o in_o and_o through_o christ_n this_o be_v usual_o call_v filial_a fear_n because_o it_o be_v such_o a_o fear_n as_o dutiful_a child_n have_v towards_o their_o father_n grieve_v for_o the_o anger_n and_o displeasure_n of_o their_o father_n and_o fear_v lest_o they_o shall_v offend_v he_o

mat._n 26._o 75._o but_o servile_a and_o slavish_a fear_n be_v such_o as_o of_o servant_n to_o their_o master_n to_o avoid_v punishment_n without_o faith_n and_o without_o a_o desire_n and_o strive_v to_o amend_v and_o be_v usual_o join_v with_o despair_n and_o a_o withdraw_a from_o god_n and_o flee_v away_o from_o he_o filial_a and_o slavish_a fear_n differ_v in_o these_o three_o thing_n 1._o

servile_a fear_n be_v a_o flee_v from_o and_o a_o hatred_n not_o of_o sin_n but_o of_o punishment_n and_o judgement_n of_o god_n and_o so_o at_o length_n with_o a_o flee_v from_o and_o a_o hatred_n
