old_a for_o to_o bless_v his_o people_n therein_o true_a blessedness_n must_v needs_o consist_v now_o if_o you_o look_v into_o the_o six_o of_o number_n you_o shall_v find_v that_o therein_o god_n command_v aaron_n and_o his_o son_n for_o to_o bless_v the_o people_n verse_n 23._o on_o this_o wise_a you_o shall_v bless_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n say_v the_o lord_n bless_v thou_o and_o keep_v thou_o the_o lord_n make_v his_o face_n to_o shine_v upon_o thou_o and_o be_v gracious_a unto_o thou_o the_o lord_n lift_v up_o his_o countenance_n upon_o thou_o and_o if_o you_o look_v into_o psalm_n 67_o 1._o you_o shall_v find_v that_o when_o the_o psalmist_n pray_v for_o a_o blessing_n he_o pray_v thus_o the_o lord_n be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o and_o bless_v we_o and_o cause_v his_o face_n to_o shine_v upon_o we_o sure_o therefore_o the_o happiness_n and_o blessedness_n of_o man_n must_v needs_o lie_v and_o consist_v in_o the_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n and_o the_o shine_n of_o his_o face_n object_n but_o if_o our_o blessedness_n do_v consist_v herein_o than_o some_o of_o god_n own_o people_n be_v not_o bless_v for_o god_n do_v hide_v his_o face_n from_o some_o of_o they_o and_o how_o many_o be_v there_o even_o among_o the_o saint_n that_o complain_v say_v oh_o the_o face_n of_o god_n do_v not_o shine_v on_o i_o ans_fw-fr true_a they_o do_v so_o and_o its_o possible_a that_o god_n may_v hide_v his_o face_n from_o his_o own_o child_n for_o a_o time_n but_o what_o child_n of_o god_n be_v there_o in_o all_o the_o world_n but_o the_o face_n of_o god_n have_v shine_v upon_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o a_o child_n of_o a_o natural_a father_n may_v never_o see_v the_o face_n of_o his_o father_n his_o father_n may_v be_v dead_a before_o he_o be_v bear_v but_o no_o child_n of_o god_n but_o have_v see_v his_o father_n face_n for_o what_o be_v the_o face_n of_o god_n but_o his_o favour_n and_o what_o be_v the_o shine_n thereof_o but_o the_o manifestation_n of_o his_o favour_n and_o when_o god_n pardon_v his_o sin_n at_o the_o first_o do_v not_o he_o manifest_v his_o love_n and_o favour_n to_o he_o and_o do_v he_o not_o daily_o do_v it_o in_o support_v he_o with_o his_o arm_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n the_o saint_n do_v measure_v the_o favour_n of_o god_n too_o much_o by_o outward_a mercy_n and_o blessing_n because_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n be_v promise_v they_o as_o a_o favour_n from_o god_n when_o the_o enemy_n do_v break_v in_o upon_o they_o they_o say_v that_o god_n do_v then_o hide_v his_o face_n from_o they_o but_o you_o know_v how_o be_v be_v with_o the_o day_n if_o it_o be_v day_n the_o sun_n shine_v and_o though_o you_o see_v not_o the_o beam_n thereof_o yet_o you_o see_v the_o light_n thereof_o so_o here_o though_o you_o see_v not_o the_o beam_n of_o god_n countenance_n yet_o if_o it_o be_v day_n with_o you_o you_o see_v the_o light_n thereof_o now_o it_o be_v day_n with_o all_o the_o child_n of_o god_n they_o be_v child_n of_o the_o day_n and_o therefore_o whatever_o they_o say_v or_o think_v there_o be_v none_o of_o god_n child_n but_o the_o face_n of_o god_n do_v or_o have_v shine_v upon_o quest_n but_o how_o shall_v i_o know_v that_o the_o face_n of_o god_n have_v ever_o shine_v on_o my_o soul_n for_o there_o be_v many_o delusion_n about_o this_o matter_n how_o shall_v i_o therefore_o know_v that_o god_n have_v ever_o lift_v up_o the_o light_n of_o his_o countenance_n upon_o my_o soul_n 5._o general_n that_o be_v the_o 5_o general_n therefore_o i_o shall_v now_o speak_v to_o that_o ans_fw-fr if_o god_n have_v ever_o bless_v you_o in_o truth_n then_o have_v his_o face_n shine_v upon_o you_o for_o his_o blessing_n and_o the_o shine_n of_o his_o face_n go_v together_o as_o you_o have_v hear_v now_o when_o god_n bless_v a_o man_n than_o he_o draw_v he_o near_o to_o himself_o bless_a be_v the_o man_n say_v the_o psalmist_n who_o then_o cause_v to_o approach_v unto_o thou_o when_o god_n bless_v a_o man_n than_o he_o make_v he_o to_o increase_v and_o multiply_v if_o he_o bless_v he_o in_o his_o estate_n than_o he_o do_v increase_v and_o multiply_v therein_o if_o he_o bless_v he_o in_o his_o part_n or_o gift_n or_o grace_n or_o comfort_n then_o he_o cause_v he_o to_o increase_v therein_o so_o at_o the_o beginning_n the_o lord_n bless_a man_n and_o say_v increase_n and_o multiply_v and_o therefore_o if_o thou_o have_v be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o have_v live_v at_o a_o distance_n from_o god_n and_o now_o at_o bring_v nigh_o to_o he_o and_o increase_v in_o thy_o gift_n grace_n and_o comfort_n then_o have_v the_o lord_n bless_v thy_o soul_n and_o so_o have_v shine_v on_o thou_o 2._o if_o god_n have_v ever_o shine_v upon_o thy_o soul_n than_o he_o have_v wonderful_o irradiate_v and_o enlighten_v and_o teach_v thy_o soul_n the_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o do_v never_o enter_v in_o thy_o heart_n before_o psal_n 67.1_o 2._o the_o psalmist_n say_v be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o and_o bless_v we_o and_o cause_v thy_o face_n to_o shine_v upon_o we_o that_o thy_o way_n may_v be_v know_v etc._n etc._n and_o say_v the_o apostle_n 2d_o or_o 4.4_o 6._o god_n that_o command_v light_a to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n shine_v into_o your_o heart_n to_o giv_v you_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n 3_o if_o this_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n have_v indeed_o shine_v upon_o your_o heart_n then_o your_o other_o carnal_a kitch●n_n light_n have_v be_v put_v out_o thereby_o you_o see_v that_o when_o the_o sun_n shine_v upon_o the_o kitchin-fire_n it_o do_v put_v it_o ●ut_v so_o if_o ever_o god_n have_v shine_v upon_o your_o soul_n there_o ●ath_v such_o a_o glory_n fall_v upon_o

you_o satisfy_v with_o the_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n and_o yet_o your_o desire_n after_o it_o be_v the_o more_o increase_v this_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o paradox_n but_o it_o be_v true_a ●●e_v more_o a_o man_n see_v the_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n ●he_v more_o he_o belong_v after_o it_o and_o the_o more_o he_o belong_v after_o it_o the_o more_o be_v be_v satisfy_v with_o it_o show_v we_o the_o father_n say_v thomas_n and_o it_o suffice_v i_o have_v now_o that_o say_v the_o soul_n which_o do_v make_v i_o happy_a therefore_o i_o be_o full_o satisfy_v yet_o i_o have_v taste_v such_o

5_o if_o the_o face_n of_o god_n have_v ever_o shine_v upon_o your_o soul_n than_o there_o have_v be_v a_o time_n when_o you_o be_v in_o the_o dark_a and_o by_o the_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n your_o doubt_n and_o fear_n have_v be_v all_o dispel_v at_o once_o god_n never_o shine_v but_o upon_o those_o that_o have_v be_v in_o the_o dark_a god_n that_o command_v light_a to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n shine_v into_o your_o heart_n say_v the_o apostle_n and_o when_o god_n shine_v than_o all_o your_o sea_n be_v and_o doubt_n and_o objection_n be_v answer_v at_o once_o not_o by_o

shall_v never_o see_v he_o again_o yet_o when_o she_o see_v his_o face_n than_o all_o her_o fear_n and_o doubt_n be_v answer_v at_o once_o so_o here_o although_o you_o have_v have_v many_o fear_n that_o you_o shall_v never_o see_v the_o face_n of_o god_n again_o yet_o when_o his_o face_n shine_v than_o all_o your_o doubt_n be_v answer_v at_o once_o 6_o if_o the_o face_n of_o god_n have_v ever_o shine_v upon_o your_o soul_n in_o truth_n then_o have_v you_o be_v thereby_o enable_v to_o do_v and_o act_v some_o great_a thing_n for_o god_n and_o you_o have_v have_v a_o heart_n give_v you_o to_o do_v it_o cant._n 1.12_o when_o the_o king_n sit_v at_o his_o table_n my_o spikenard_n send_v forth_o the_o smell_n thereof_o by_o spikenard_n here_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o sweet_a

that_o god_n hide_v his_o face_n from_o you_o than_o you_o be_v as_o one_o that_o go_v down_o to_o the_o pit_n and_o you_o say_v oh_o all_o the_o world_n for_o one_o smile_n from_o christ_n lord_n let_v i_o see_v thy_o face_n though_o i_o be_v a_o beggar_n and_o though_o i_o have_v no_o comfort_n in_o this_o world_n yet_o let_v i_o see_v thy_o face_n for_o i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o live_v without_o the_o light_n of_o thy_o countenance_n 8_o and_o if_o ever_o you_o have_v see_v the_o face_n of_o god_n in_o truth_n then_o have_v your_o heart_n be_v inflame_v with_o love_n to_o christ_n upon_o that_o account_n for_o by_o he_o you_o have_v your_o address_n into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n by_o he_o and_o in_o he_o god_n face_n do_v shine_v upon_o your_o soul_n god_n that_o command_v light_a to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n shine_v into_o our_o heart_n to_o give_v we_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n though_o you_o can_v behold_v and_o look_v

you_o do_v see_v god_n face_n and_o therefore_o if_o ever_o god_n do_v in_o truth_n shine_v upon_o your_o soul_n then_o have_v your_o heart_n be_v inflame_v with_o love_n to_o christ_n upon_o this_o

if_o you_o never_o be_v enable_v to_o do_v any_o great_a thing_n for_o christ_n if_o you_o never_o be_v in_o the_o dark_a in_o reference_n to_o your_o spiritual_a condition_n if_o your_o desire_n

to_o this_o day_n and_o therefore_o you_o be_v yet_o to_o seek_v for_o your_o true_a happiness_n quest_n but_o suppose_v the_o face_n of_o god_n never_o yet_o shine_v on_o my_o soul_n or_o that_o it_o

if_o i_o desire_v it_o only_o for_o the_o sweetness_n of_o it_o than_o i_o be_o not_o upright_a therein_o take_v heed_n therefore_o of_o that_o 3._o if_o you_o will_v have_v the_o face_n of_o god_n
