well_o come_v in_o here_o psal_n 87._o 3._o glorious_a thing_n be_v speak_v of_o thou_o o_o thou_o city_n of_o god_n beloved_n i_o will_v fain_o engage_v your_o most_o serious_a attention_n to_o what_o shall_v be_v deliver_v upon_o this_o subject_a and_o to_o prepare_v you_o for_o it_o i_o beseech_v you_o to_o know_v that_o i_o hope_v you_o shall_v hear_v some_o glorious_a thing_n speak_v to_o you_o of_o this_o city_n of_o god_n in_o the_o open_n of_o the_o excellent_a privilege_n which_o this_o freedom_n by_o christ_n bring_v with_o it_o which_o when_o you_o have_v hear_v i_o be_o sure_a you_o will_v have_v cause_n to_o say_v of_o these_o redeem_a one_o as_o moses_n once_o do_v of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n deut._n 33._o 29._o happy_a be_v thou_o o_o israel_n who_o be_v like_a unto_o thou_o o_o people_n save_v by_o the_o lord_n i_o shall_v not_o spend_v time_n in_o thing_n that_o be_v but_o of_o a_o general_a consideration_n otherwise_o i_o may_v show_v you_o that_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v very_o precious_a privilege_n attend_v this_o freedom_n 1._o from_o the_o great_a difficulty_n that_o there_o be_v to_o get_v into_o this_o freedom_n as_o you_o know_v those_o place_n and_o condition_n that_o have_v great_a privilege_n what_o a_o hard_a thing_n it_o be_v to_o get_v into_o they_o there_o must_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o seek_v and_o wait_v and_o much_o cost_n and_o pain_n lay_v out_o and_o such_o and_o such_o a_o great_a person_n must_v be_v make_v once_o friend_n so_o it_o be_v no_o easy_a matter_n to_o get_v into_o this_o freedom_n to_o be_v make_v one_o of_o the_o company_n if_o ever_o you_o be_v admit_v into_o it_o you_o must_v strive_v to_o enter_v you_o must_v think_v no_o pain_n or_o labour_n too_o much_o and_o you_o must_v patient_o wait_v upon_o the_o lord_n till_o he_o have_v mercy_n on_o you_o and_o you_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o get_v god_n and_o christ_n to_o be_v your_o friend_n for_o they_o have_v the_o power_n and_o the_o dispose_n of_o this_o freedom_n they_o give_v it_o to_o who_o they_o will_n now_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o there_o be_v so_o much_o ado_n among_o man_n to_o procure_v such_o a_o place_n and_o to_o be_v one_o of_o such_o a_o society_n as_o many_o time_n there_o be_v why_o it_o be_v because_o if_o they_o be_v once_o admit_v into_o it_o there_o be_v such_o privilege_n to_o be_v enjoy_v and_o such_o profit_n to_o be_v receive_v as_o will_v abundant_o recompense_v all_o their_o pain_n so_o here_o the_o difficulty_n of_o become_v one_o of_o these_o that_o be_v make_v free_a by_o christ_n speak_v that_o this_o freedom_n be_v full_a of_o excellent_a privilege_n 2._o from_o the_o high_a esteem_n that_o they_o have_v of_o this_o freedom_n who_o be_v admit_v into_o it_o through_o grace_n say_v what_o you_o will_v to_o they_o you_o can_v never_o bring_v they_o out_o of_o love_n with_o it_o again_o they_o will_v like_v their_o christ_n and_o like_o their_o condition_n though_o all_o the_o world_n shall_v set_v themselves_o to_o turn_v away_o their_o heart_n from_o it_o they_o will_v part_v with_o if_o for_o no_o good_a they_o like_v it_o so_o well_o that_o they_o set_v a_o high_a value_n upon_o the_o worst_a of_o christ_n than_o they_o do_v upon_o the_o best_a of_o the_o world_n as_o moses_n do_v heb._n 11._o 25_o 26._o now_o certain_o this_o be_v because_o their_o condition_n be_v full_a of_o privilege_n they_o know_v they_o be_v better_o here_o than_o they_o can_v be_v any_o where_o else_o in_o the_o world_n 3._o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v so_o often_o call_v upon_o in_o scripture_n to_o praise_v the_o lord_n they_o who_o observe_v may_v frequent_o find_v how_o much_o they_o be_v stir_v up_o to_o this_o duty_n how_o many_o psalm_n do_v david_n begin_v and_o end_v with_o this_o praise_v you_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o say_v that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v a_o sing_n to_o he_o blessing_n of_o he_o rejoice_v and_o give_v thanks_o extol_v of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n declare_v his_o wonderful_a work_n towards_o they_o now_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o one_o main_a thing_n that_o he_o drive_v at_o why_o they_o shall_v do_v this_o be_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o the_o freedom_n which_o god_n have_v bring_v they_o into_o psal_n 107._o 1_o 2._o and_o 136._o 1_o 2_o 3._o compare_v with_o ver_fw-la 10_o 11_o 12_o 23_o 24._o and_o in_o rev._n 5._o you_o read_v that_o the_o saint_n be_v at_o this_o work_n of_o more_o than_o ordinary_a thanksgiving_n to_o god_n they_o sing_v a_o song_n what_o be_v it_o for_o oh_o for_o the_o freedom_n they_o have_v receive_v certain_o then_o if_o god_n have_v such_o great_a praise_n for_o it_o there_o be_v great_a privilege_n in_o it_o but_o i_o shall_v not_o go_v on_o thus_o but_o will_v bring_v in_o a_o list_n of_o the_o privilege_n so_o far_o as_o i_o can_v in_o particular_a and_o here_o as_o the_o prophet_n say_v isa_n 63._o 7._o i_o will_v mention_v the_o
