Sam. 28. 5. y As who should say Flectere si nequeo superos Ach●●o●ta ●oveb● ● As Tomyris to Cyrus Satia te sanguine que fi●●st● ● When Dauid was exalted to the kingdome no doubt but the Lord did intend to represent to the Church a liuely Image of Christ that was to come And not onely for them to expect the promised seed in that linage but also to repose all their hope of externall deliuerances in the kingdome of Dauid For which cause the Psalmist Psal. 2. Exhorting the Church to the feare of God and submission to the Lords ordinances addeth Kisse the Sonne c. As if he had said thus As you looke for saluation spirituall in Christ so expect temporall from this familie which God hath adopted to the kingdome For the Psalme is literally to be applyed to Dauid and mistically to Christ. Moreouer God did make the promise of an euerlasting kingdome to Dauid that so the faithful might with greater confidence rest vpō Gods promise Answerable was the practise of the Church For it is obseruable that through the whole booke of Psalmes the Church did pray for and expect deliuerance from God in the name of Christ who was represented to them in the person of the King descended from the house of Dauid Hence it is also that in the Captiuitie the kingdome being in appearance ouerthrowne and all things subuerted Ieremy lamenting the estate of the Church particularly complaineth that the kingdome which was the hope of the faithfull was ouerthrowne Lam. 4 20. The breath of our nostrills the Anointed of the Lord was taken in their pits of whom we said vnder his shadow wee shall liue among the Heathen i. e. The King of the posteritie of Dauid was taken away vnder whose protection and defence they did hope for safetie Not in respect of the externall signe though many did looke no further but in the same as a type of the euerlasting kingdome of the Messiah Last of all note this that when the ten Tribes did rouolt from the house of Dauid and chose Ieroboam King they are dealt withall Hos. 1. as with an adulterous woman The matter is this God had set vp his King vpon the holy hill of Zion that is establisht the kingdome in the house of Dauid And had by this meanes tyed the house of Israell to that family from the which they might not depart without manifest reiecting the Ordinance of God By all which it is manifest that Daud was a type of Christ and his kingdome a type of Christes kingdome and the Rejectors and persecutors of him the persecutors of Christ. b 1.

as the proper Object of this sinne Resp Indeed this is a materiall poynt for except we find him fayling in this we shall doe him wrong We must therefore obserue that the knowledge of the Messiah was then contained in types and shadowes and he then that did renounce and oppugne the certaine and vndoubted type of Christ did also oppose Christ himselfe Euen as he that receiueth the Sacrament vnworthily is guiltie of the body and bloud of the Lord Iesus Now it is euident that a Dauid was a type of Christ and his kingdome a type of the kingdome of Christ. And the outward saluatio which the people did receiue from Dauid was a type of the spirituall saluation performed by the Messiah Yea all the hope of deliuerance was to be expected according to the Lords ordinance from that family Yea which is more the faithfull also did know so much Lam. 4. 20. Moreouer it is worth the noting that after the anoynting of Dauid Saul of himselfe did obtaine no notable victory but eyther Dauid was the principall as in the battell with Goliah or the sole Agent as when he was Sauls Captaine Yea once in the time of his troubles he saued Keilah and chased the Philistims For else Saul fought no battell till the last which he lost Indeed it is mentioned that Saul went against the Philistims at what time he was vpon the poynt to take Dauid but there is no mention made of Sauls preuailing against them Further it may seeme that by a common fame and speech of the people Dauid was accounted the King from whom the Philistims had heard it and thereupon reported to Achish is not this Dauid the King of the Land And certainely it is not vnlikely but that the best men did depend vpon him as their King and therefore when Keilah is in danger they come to him not to Saul Neither was this vnknowne to Saul who by his owne confession knew that Dauid should be King and that the kingdome of Israell should be established in his hand yea he prophecieth of his preuailing and prosperous affaires and therefore exacteth an oath of Dauid that he would not destroy his seed after him nor abolish his name out of his fathers house So that all this being laid together it is manifest I hope that Saul cannot wash his hands of this crime nor proue himselfe innocent in this fact but must suffer himselfe to bee ranked with Iudas Iulian and other wretched Apostata's The blessed Apostle St. Iames speaking of them who to the naked and destitute of dayly foode doe say Depart in peace and worme your selues and fill your bellies and yet giue them not those things that are needefull to the body censureth the coldnesse of their charity thus 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 What heleth it what doth it profit And not vndeseruedly for what end is there of Gods counsell if there be no ability of performance This censure of the Apostle might perhaps bee applied to this mine admonition to take heede of Apostasie as if I did exhort men to warme themselues and fill their bellies and yet giue them not those things that are needefull to the body id est to practise those things which may preserue men from this Recidiuation and yet prescribe no meanes set downe no preseruatiues Wherfore to satisfie the hungry and thirsty soule in some measure euen in this point I now come to the preseruatiues which being practised are effectuall to preuent this consumption this disease incurable For how soeuer this sinne be of that deadly nature that like to some violent poyson it being once receiued there is no remedy no helpe against death Yet there is a Mithridatum an Antidote a Preseruatiue which if it carefully be obserued and practised will preserue as that the body so this the soule from being infected with this deadly venome The ingredients that serue for this Mithridatum are many and to be gathered out of diuerse gardens But I will content my selfe only with the Garden of the sacred Scripture which is sufficient and contayneth in it many seuerall graue exhortations like salutiferous hearbs purposely intended by the holy Ghost for this confection First Remember Lots wife the words of our Sauiour to his Apostles exhorting to perseuerance the only vertue contrary this our vice vsing thereto the example of a woman who hauing as it were put her hand to the Plough looked back and so became vnfit for the kingdome of God hauing escaped from the filthinesse of Sodom and now trauelling towards Zoar a place of safety looked back and became a pillar of Salt and her example hung vpon records for a perpetuall warning to all shrinkers throughout all generations Lots wife is memorable First in her sinne shee looked back no doubt saith Caluin being tickled with some euill desire and affection she did not leaue Sodome willingly Secondly In her strange and wonderfull transformation presently suddenly was she turned into a pillar of Salt In respect of both these remember Lots wife A great sinne Recidiuation Apostasie A great punishment present vengeance Remember the sinne to shun it Remember the punishment to feare it Our Sauiour setteth forth the punishment of such as looke back viz. They are vnfit for the kingdome of God St. Paul something more roundly It is a fearefull thing to fall into the hands of the liuing God For that ground which hauing drunke in the rayne that falleth vpon it beareth nothing but Bryars and Thornes is reiected and is nigh vnto cursing whose end is to be burned Heb. 6. 8. Secondly Grieue not the holy spirit of God c. as did the Israelites in the Wildernesse fourtie yeeres least the Lord sweare against you also in his wrath that you shall not enter into his rest First The spirit of God is the seale of our Redemption therefore grieue him not neyther by neglecting assurance when thou mayst haue it To day if ye will heare harden not your hearts to day while it is called to day heare his voice nor in wilfull doubting of that assurance recorded in the word This spirit which is the seale of our Redemption is the spirit of God therefore grieue him not Of God our Creator whose glory we are to set forth Of God our Redeemer who hath enlarged our feete out of the snares of Satan Of God the Iudge and auenger of all those who shall vexe his spirit Thirdly The spirit of God is an holy spirit Holy in his essence Holy in his operation therefore grieue him not neyther by neglecting the duties of holinesse in hearing the word For what knowest thou O man whether euer thou shalt heare it more And perhaps thou mightst at that time haue hard that that might haue done thee good for euer Not by resisting or at lest not listening to the good motions which the spirit doth put into thine heart much lesse by wilfull falling into any sin O
