this_o be_v not_o a_o light_a notion_n but_o of_o great_a moment_n for_o it_o will_v make_v thou_o love_v the_o lord_n jesus_n saint_n paul_n put_v this_o among_o the_o great_a mercy_n he_o have_v be_v merciful_a to_o i_o with_o faith_n and_o love_n 1._o that_o amaze_v he_o that_o he_o can_v never_o be_v thankful_a enough_o for_o it_o that_o be_v he_o have_v wrought_v in_o i_o faith_n and_o love_n therefore_o give_v he_o the_o praise_n it_o be_v god_n that_o do_v it_o we_o be_v but_o the_o instrument_n we_o praise_v not_o the_o trumpet_n but_o the_o trumpeter_n we_o praise_v not_o the_o pencil_n but_o the_o painter_n it_o be_v god_n that_o do_v the_o work_n give_v he_o therefore_o the_o whole_a praise_n of_o it_o this_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o much_o use_n to_o you_o for_o when_o there_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o god_n that_o have_v be_v a_o instrument_n of_o bring_v you_o to_o heaven_n you_o will_v love_v this_o man_n prize_v he_o and_o magnify_v he_o in_o your_o thought_n and_o you_o do_v well_o but_o remember_v that_o you_o take_v nothing_o from_o christ_n alas_o what_o be_v the_o pen_n to_o he_o that_o write_v the_o epistle_n what_o be_v we_o my_o brethren_n give_v not_o to_o we_o what_o belong_v unto_o he_o nothing_o unto_o we_o say_v paul_n we_o have_v do_v thus_o and_o thus_o but_o it_o be_v nothing_o it_o be_v christ_n that_o have_v do_v all_o and_o let_v he_o have_v all_o as_o the_o servant_n of_o christ_n we_o must_v be_v wary_a that_o we_o rob_v not_o our_o master_n of_o man_n affection_n for_o we_o be_v but_o spokesman_n to_o present_v you_o to_o christ_n therefore_o be_v exceed_o wary_a give_v your_o affection_n to_o the_o lord_n to_o who_o they_o belong_v if_o ever_o you_o receive_v any_o good_a by_o any_o sermon_n if_o you_o be_v ever_o quicken_v if_o ever_o a_o little_a enliven_v by_o the_o powerful_a preach_n of_o the_o word_n give_v glory_n to_o christ_n and_o say_v he_o have_v do_v it_o let_v he_o have_v the_o praise_n of_o it_o love_v he_o so_o much_o the_o more_o for_o of_o all_o grace_n nothing_o be_v like_o that_o to_o work_v grace_n in_o your_o heart_n again_o if_o you_o will_v say_v what_o use_n be_v there_o of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o minister_n but_o god_n that_o do_v it_o word_n then_o do_v not_o expect_v from_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v come_v with_o excellency_n of_o wisdom_n or_o of_o word_n that_o we_o shall_v come_v with_o wit_n and_o eloquence_n and_o learning_n will_v this_o make_v a_o new_a creature_n no_o it_o will_v not_o do_v it_o for_o it_o be_v god_n that_o make_v man_n new_a creature_n and_o if_o it_o be_v so_o he_o will_v do_v it_o by_o his_o own_o instrument_n that_o be_v by_o his_o own_o word_n thus_o paul_n reason_n 1_o cor._n 2._o we_o preach_v the_o gospel_n not_o with_o excellency_n of_o word_n for_o then_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n will_v be_v of_o no_o effect_n that_o be_v no_o man_n will_v be_v a_o new_a creature_n and_o christ_n will_v die_v in_o vain_a therefore_o we_o preach_v the_o gospel_n in_o the_o evidence_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o power_n these_o go_v together_o evidence_n of_o spirit_n and_o power_n what_o then_o be_v this_o preach_n in_o evidence_n of_o the_o spirit_n certain_o it_o be_v never_o evident_a that_o the_o spirit_n speak_v but_o when_o you_o know_v the_o word_n speak_v therefore_o when_o any_o man_n know_v that_o this_o be_v the_o word_n we_o preach_v there_o be_v a_o evidence_n it_o be_v a_o speech_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o when_o the_o spiri●_n speak_v to_o the_o heart_n there_o be_v power_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o christ_n do_v so_o much_o good_a he_o teach_v with_o authority_n and_o not_o as_o the_o scribe_n what_o be_v that_o to_o come_v with_o authority_n as_o when_o a_o constable_n come_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o king_n he_o show_v his_o evidence_n he_o have_v that_o which_o make_v evident_a to_o he_o with_o who_o he_o have_v to_o deal_v that_o he_o come_v from_o the_o king_n we_o preach_v with_o authority_n then_o only_o when_o we_o speak_v from_o god_n to_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n this_o consist_v not_o in_o excellency_n of_o word_n but_o so_o much_o as_o there_o be_v of_o god_n so_o much_o authority_n therefore_o come_v not_o with_o affectation_n of_o excellency_n of_o word_n and_o wisdom_n if_o we_o have_v all_o the_o wit_n in_o the_o world_n to_o set_v word_n of_o god_n in_o it_o it_o be_v better_a than_o that_o in_o which_o it_o be_v set_v as_o the_o diamond_n be_v better_a than_o the_o gold_n in_o which_o it_o be_v set_v if_o you_o be_v to_o choose_v a_o minister_n choose_v not_o such_o a_o one_o desire_v it_o not_o expect_v it_o not_o the_o foolishness_n of_o preach_v be_v wise_a than_o man_n it_o will_v do_v more_o than_o all_o the_o wisdom_n of_o man_n though_o it_o be_v but_o foolishness_n to_o some_o we_o speak_v wisdom_n to_o they_o that_o be_v perfect_a say_v paul_n they_o that_o be_v perfect_a will_v recount_v it_o wisdom_n it_o be_v foolishness_n to_o they_o that_o be_v child_n and_o unable_a to_o discern_v again_o though_o it_o be_v but_o foolishness_n on_o the_o outside_n yet_o there_o be_v treasure_n within_o and_o god_n have_v hide_v these_o treasure_n under_o base_a outside_n that_o man_n may_v stumble_v at_o they_o as_o man_n that_o hide_v treasure_n under_o straw_n the_o foolishness_n of_o preach_v save_v the_o soul_n of_o man_n therefore_o see_v it_o be_v god_n that_o do_v it_o he_o will_v use_v his_o own_o instrument_n god_n work_v by_o it_o can_v word_n can_v all_o moral_a wit_n make_v a_o new_a creature_n no_o it_o be_v god_n then_o why_o do_v we_o make_v a_o question_n the_o more_o the_o word_n be_v discover_v and_o bring_v home_o the_o better_a it_o be_v because_o indeed_o when_o we_o preach_v any_o thing_n else_o you_o do_v but_o see_v a_o creature_n and_o you_o think_v you_o have_v to_o do_v with_o a_o creature_n for_o you_o can_v answer_v wit_n with_o wit_n and_o learning_n with_o learning_n and_o when_o you_o see_v you_o have_v to_o do_v with_o man_n though_o never_o so_o excellent_a yet_o they_o be_v man_n but_o when_o christ_n speak_v to_o the_o conscience_n now_o the_o heart_n be_v bring_v down_o when_o it_o see_v it_o have_v to_o do_v with_o god_n that_o only_o have_v to_o do_v with_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n therefore_o expect_v not_o the_o contrary_a and_o remember_v that_o god_n be_v the_o doer_n of_o it_o it_o be_v he_o that_o write_v the_o epistle_n though_o we_o be_v the_o minister_n it_o be_v therefore_o not_o without_o use_n that_o we_o preach_v this_o doctrine_n to_o you_o word_n and_o to_o all_o that_o i_o have_v say_v add_v this_o one_o more_o therefore_o if_o you_o find_v there_o have_v not_o be_v a_o mighty_a work_n of_o god_n wrought_v in_o your_o heart_n at_o any_o time_n when_o you_o have_v hear_v the_o word_n know_v you_o have_v hear_v in_o vain_a for_o the_o labour_n be_v lose_v if_o there_o be_v no_o more_o than_o the_o work_n of_o a_o man_n therefore_o you_o must_v know_v there_o be_v two_o preacher_n at_o the_o same_o time_n one_o that_o speak_v to_o the_o heart_n powerful_o that_o make_v you_o new_a creature_n that_o baptize_v you_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n and_o then_o there_o be_v a_o preach_n to_o the_o ear_n and_o there_o be_v two_o hear_n one_o be_v when_o you_o can_v repeat_v and_o recall_v the_o word_n to_o memory_n but_o there_o be_v another_o save_a hearing_n that_o be_v when_o be_v it_o ingraft_v and_o when_o it_o be_v ingraft_v even_o then_o when_o it_o make_v you_o new_a creature_n as_o a_o graft_n be_v then_o graft_v when_o it_o change_v all_o the_o stock_n therefore_o consider_v whether_o you_o do_v so_o hear_v or_o no_o that_o it_o have_v breed_v such_o a_o change_n in_o you_o and_o know_v otherwise_o you_o have_v hear_v it_o in_o vain_a for_o what_o do_v we_o do_v when_o we_o preach_v the_o word_n we_o do_v as_o gehezi_n do_v he_o come_v run_v with_o elisha_n staff_n to_o raise_v the_o child_n but_o he_o can_v not_o do_v it_o for_o though_o he_o have_v elisha_n staff_n he_o have_v not_o elisha_n spirit_n so_o we_o come_v with_o the_o staff_n but_o not_o with_o the_o spirit_n therefore_o thou_o be_v not_o raise_v to_o life_n for_o there_o be_v the_o staff_n without_o the_o spirit_n therefore_o do_v not_o think_v thou_o have_v hear_v to_o any_o purpose_n if_o the_o stock_n be_v not_o turn_v if_o thou_o find_v not_o the_o spirit_n there_o what_o do_v we_o when_o we_o dress_v up_o a_o sermon_n never_o so_o well_o it_o be_v but_o the_o rig_v of_o the_o sail_n and_o what_o will_v all_o

be_v fall_v into_o sin_n continue_v in_o it_o the_o guilt_n and_o power_n of_o it_o remain_v upon_o his_o soul_n and_o he_o excuse_v himself_o with_o the_o smallness_n of_o it_o 5.18_o this_o be_v a_o common_a fault_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v press_v it_o the_o more_o consider_v that_o which_o christ_n say_v heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v but_o the_o least_o jot_n of_o this_o law_n shall_v not_o pass_v what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o it_o be_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v something_n in_o the_o law_n of_o god_n you_o may_v think_v small_a which_o be_v but_o ïotas_fw-la though_o other_o thing_n be_v great_a but_o take_v you_o heed_n that_o you_o keep_v every_o particular_a for_o there_o be_v not_o a_o jot_n of_o it_o but_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v all_o his_o servant_n regard_v it_o exact_o they_o shall_v have_v respect_n to_o every_o commandment_n and_o to_o every_o part_n of_o that_o commandment_n the_o least_o particular_a in_o his_o law_n shall_v not_o pass_v away_o for_o consider_v if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o it_o will_v be_v a_o prejudice_n to_o the_o lord_n wisdom_n for_o there_o will_v be_v something_o that_o he_o command_v which_o we_o may_v slight_v but_o the_o lord_n that_o have_v command_v all_o both_o great_a and_o small_a know_v that_o it_o be_v best_o that_o all_o shall_v be_v keep_v and_o therefore_o though_o heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v yet_o the_o least_o jot_n of_o that_o law_n shall_v not_o pass_v that_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o place_n you_o may_v see_v by_o christ_n exposition_n of_o the_o law_n the_o pharisy_n say_v adultery_n must_v not_o be_v commit_v but_o i_o say_v say_v christ_n he_o that_o lust_n have_v commit_v adultery_n in_o his_o heart_n they_o say_v you_o must_v not_o swear_v by_o the_o temple_n but_o i_o say_v swear_v ●ot_n at_o all_o they_o say_v a_o eye_n for_o a_o eye_n and_o a_o tooth_n for_o a_o tooth_n but_o i_o say_v you_o must_v forgive_v your_o brethren_n thus_o we_o must_v labour_v to_o resist_v sin_n in_o every_o even_o the_o least_o particular_a and_o reform_v ourselves_o in_o the_o omission_n of_o the_o least_o particle_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o much_o likewise_o for_o the_o second_o point_n three_o wrath_n we_o come_v now_o to_o consider_v what_o it_o be_v that_o turn_v away_o his_o wrath_n and_o that_o be_v zeal_n phineas_n have_v turn_v away_o my_o wrath_n while_o he_o be_v zealous_a for_o my_o sake_n so_o that_o zeal_n turn_v away_o the_o lord_n wrath_n you_o shall_v see_v it_o exemplefy_v in_o elijah_n answer_n to_o the_o lord_n demand_v instance_n 1_o king_n 19.4_o what_o do_v thou_o here_o elijah_n elijah_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v what_o have_v thou_o do_v abroad_o in_o the_o world_n say_v he_o i_o have_v be_v zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n because_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n have_v break_v thy_o covenant_n throw_v down_o thy_o altar_n and_o kill_v thy_o prophet_n and_o i_o only_o be_o escape_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v i_o have_v do_v the_o most_o i_o can_v for_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o church_n i_o have_v be_v zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o he_o prevail_v with_o god_n for_o his_o own_o deliverance_n you_o may_v see_v it_o likewise_o in_o jehu_n who_o be_v zealous_a not_o in_o word_n only_o but_o in_o deed_n also_o turn_v away_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o lord_n lukewarmenesse_a and_o you_o may_v know_v it_o by_o the_o contrary_a that_o it_o be_v zeal_n that_o turn_v away_o the_o lord_n wrath_n because_o it_o be_v coldness_n and_o lukewarmenesse_a that_o bring_v on_o his_o wrath_n rev._n 3.16_o consider_v there_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n will_v spew_v out_o the_o church_n of_o laodicea_n and_o cast_v it_o away_o because_o it_o be_v lukewarm_a and_o therefore_o the_o mean_n to_o continue_v or_o procure_v his_o favour_n be_v it_o not_o heat_n and_o zeal_n again_o rev._n 2.4_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n fall_v from_o her_o first_o love_n what_o then_o therefore_o i_o will_v come_v against_o thou_o short_o and_o remove_v thy_o candlestick_n then_o to_o abound_v in_o love_n so_o that_o our_o work_n may_v be_v more_o at_o last_o than_o at_o first_o to_o be_v zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o way_n to_o stay_v the_o lord_n among_o we_o and_o to_o continue_v his_o gospel_n of_o peace_n sin_n therefore_o by_o the_o way_n it_o be_v not_o only_o the_o great_a sin_n of_o the_o land_n that_o be_v cause_n of_o god_n wrath_n but_o the_o coldness_n of_o they_o that_o be_v otherwise_o good_a that_o cause_v the_o lord_n to_o remove_v the_o candlestick_n the_o very_a coldness_n of_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n in_o fall_v from_o her_o first_o love_n the_o lukewarmenesse_a of_o the_o laodicean_n the_o lord_n will_v not_o endure_v in_o they_o let_v every_o man_n consider_v this_o be_v his_o zeal_n now_o as_o much_o as_o it_o have_v be_v if_o not_o let_v we_o know_v that_o it_o be_v reckon_v coldness_n and_o lukewarmenesse_a the_o fall_v from_o our_o first_o love_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o bring_v god_n judgement_n on_o a_o nation_n but_o what_o be_v this_o zeal_n zeal_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o intention_n of_o all_o holy_a affection_n and_o action_n i_o will_v go_v no_o further_o than_o this_o text_n to_o show_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o phineas_n be_v zealous_a affection_n that_o be_v he_o not_o only_o do_v the_o thing_n but_o his_o heart_n burn_v within_o he_o with_o zeal_n for_o god._n so_o as_o first_o there_o must_v be_v a_o stir_v up_o of_o affection_n lord_n second_o it_o must_v be_v holy_a it_o must_v be_v for_o the_o lord_n and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o discover_v true_a zeal_n to_o look_v only_o to_o the_o lord_n to_o have_v no_o by-respect_n as_o there_o may_v be_v zeal_n that_o make_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o hea●e_n and_o yet_o it_o come_v from_o the_o earth_n although_o it_o make_v as_o great_a a_o show_n as_o the_o best_a again_o action_n there_o must_v be_v intention_n not_o only_o of_o affection_n but_o also_o of_o action_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v while_o he_o be_v zealous_a for_o my_o sake_n among_o they_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v this_o zeal_n of_o phineas_n be_v not_o keep_v smother_v in_o his_o own_o breast_n but_o it_o brak●_n forth_o into_o action_n he_o do_v something_o for_o the_o lord_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v action_n that_o glorify_v god_n and_o that_o benefit_n man_n only_a action_n stand_v on_o our_o reckon_n for_o you_o know_v god_n judge_v every_o man_n according_a to_o his_o work_n it_o be_v action_n that_o do_v ourselves_o good_a that_o make_v we_o useful_a and_o serviceable_a to_o man_n and_o the_o church_n that_o make_v we_o instrument_n of_o god_n glory_n therefore_o add_v action_n to_o affection_n and_o know_v that_o zeal_n stand_v in_o both_o for_o it_o be_v the_o intention_n of_o holy_a action_n and_o affection_n i_o will_v add_v no_o more_o in_o the_o explication_n but_o will_v brief_o apply_v it_o 1_o and_o first_o if_o it_o be_v zeal_n that_o turn_v away_o the_o lord_n wrath_n zealous_a then_o why_o shall_v we_o discourage_v zeal_n by_o it_o i_o dare_v be_v bold_a to_o say_v the_o city_n stand_v why_o do_v wicked_a man_n cry_v down_o all_o religion_n and_o zeal_n under_o the_o name_n of_o preciseness_n discouragement_n and_o overmuch_o strictness_n of_o life_n walk_v bold_o in_o the_o street_n and_o

the_o object_n be_v great_a for_o it_o be_v durable_a riches_n it_o be_v durable_a honour_n a_o durable_a kingdom_n great_a than_o any_o kingdom_n upon_o the_o earth_n look_v on_o all_o thing_n that_o
