infallible_a if_o they_o be_v true_o and_o clear_o draw_v so_o than_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v that_o all_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o gospel_n they_o be_v clear_a and_o plain_a they_o be_v demonstration_n infallible_a to_o a_o spiritual_a mind_n a_o carnal_a man_n may_v doubt_v of_o they_o but_o we_o speak_v wisdom_n to_o they_o that_o be_v perfect_a three_o and_o last_o the_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n whereby_o we_o do_v apprehend_v this_o light_n and_o in_o which_o we_o retain_v these_o principle_n it_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o excellent_a i_o say_v the_o faculty_n that_o be_v the_o spiritual_a mind_n for_o i_o tell_v you_o before_o there_o be_v three_o mind_n this_o spiritual_a mind_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o new_a what_o spiritual_a mind_n what_o creature_n there_o be_v in_o a_o christian_a the_o old_a creature_n and_o the_o new_a creature_n and_o the_o scripture_n ordinary_o call_v it_o the_o old_a man_n and_o the_o new_a man_n what_o be_v the_o new_a man_n nothing_o in_o the_o world_n but_o god_n put_v as_o it_o be_v a_o new_a understanding_n in_o he_o that_o be_v he_o put_v a_o new_a light_n in_o his_o understanding_n and_o frame_v his_o understanding_n to_o be_v capable_a of_o that_o new_a light_n for_o the_o mind_n we_o have_v natural_o can_v receive_v spiritual_a thing_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o only_o a_o new_a quality_n there_o be_v something_o more_o or_o else_o god_n will_v not_o call_v it_o the_o new_a man_n but_o the_o new_a quality_n which_o he_o do_v no_o where_n in_o scripture_n the_o lord_n frame_v in_o the_o soul_n a_o capabillity_n a_o faculty_n to_o apprehend_v and_o reason_n upon_o spiritual_a thing_n and_o this_o be_v call_v the_o new_a man_n and_o this_o come_v from_o jesus_n christ_n and_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o be_v upon_o the_o grow_a hand_n more_o and_o more_o now_o the_o other_o faculty_n the_o natural_a faculty_n be_v corrupt_a with_o lust_n the_o old_a man_n be_v corrupt_v and_o when_o i_o say_v the_o old_a man_n you_o must_v take_v the_o natural_a what_o old_a man_n what_o man_n as_o well_o as_o the_o sinful_a man_n the_o old_a man_n be_v corrupt_a what_o be_v that_o he_o be_v corrupt_a that_o be_v he_o be_v rot_v how_o come_v he_o to_o be_v rot_v he_o be_v corrupt_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o lust_n of_o it_o as_o it_o be_v with_o timber_n it_o will_v continue_v a_o long_a time_n if_o it_o have_v not_o rain_v come_v upon_o it_o but_o if_o rain_n fall_v on_o it_o it_o make_v it_o decay_n so_o the_o natural_a mind_n the_o natural_a faculty_n sin_n corrupt_v the_o natural_a faculty_n faculty_n in_o adam_n before_o he_o sin_v be_v great_a deal_n more_o clear_a and_o therefore_o adam_n be_v a_o better_a naturalist_n than_o any_o man_n than_o all_o the_o man_n in_o the_o world_n adam_n be_v a_o better_a navigator_n a_o better_a physician_n a_o better_a any_o thing_n but_o as_o sin_v raise_v the_o law_n of_o god_n out_o of_o man_n heart_n so_o sin_v begin_v to_o rot_v and_o corrupt_v the_o natural_a excellency_n of_o man_n as_o his_o mind_n etc._n etc._n and_o that_o right_a reason_n that_o adam_n have_v before_o his_o fall_n you_o see_v how_o he_o do_v name_v all_o the_o creature_n and_o what_o wisdom_n he_o have_v but_o after_o his_o fall_n sin_n have_v not_o be_v long_o in_o he_o but_o he_o be_v more_o corrupt_a as_o you_o see_v in_o a_o house_n where_o there_o be_v a_o hole_n in_o the_o thatch_n if_o the_o rain_n come_v in_o but_o two_o or_o three_o day_n the_o timber_n will_v not_o be_v much_o rot_v but_o in_o time_n it_o will_v spoil_v it_o so_o we_o see_v after_o when_o sin_n come_v to_o increase_v more_o in_o the_o day_n of_o cain_n man_n be_v more_o taint_v and_o yet_o sure_o then_o natural_a knowledge_n be_v more_o excellent_a than_o now_o it_o be_v for_o you_o see_v what_o invention_n they_o have_v gen._n 4._o of_o music_n and_o building_n and_o tent_n and_o many_o thing_n that_o they_o invent_v in_o arts._n but_o you_o will_v say_v it_o be_v a_o easy_a thing_n to_o make_v tent_n and_o organ_n it_o be_v a_o easy_a thing_n to_o perfect_v a_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v 5000._o year_n find_v out_o but_o be_v you_o now_o to_o find_v out_o the_o thing_n it_o be_v not_o easy_a now_o i_o say_v that_o sin_n do_v rot_v and_o rust_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n more_o and_o more_o and_o as_o sin_n get_v head_n more_o so_o more_o and_o more_o it_o will_v rot_v the_o faculty_n of_o man_n but_o the_o faculty_n we_o have_v in_o the_o new_a man_n it_o be_v new_a it_o be_v never_o taint_v never_o any_o drop_n come_v into_o it_o to_o corrupt_v it_o for_o when_o god_n create_v the_o new_a creature_n he_o make_v it_o a_o more_o excellent_a piece_n than_o he_o do_v the_o old_a and_o this_o grow_v more_o and_o more_o &_o therefore_o see_v there_o be_v clear_a light_n &_o excellent_a principle_n &_o a_o profounder_n faculty_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o more_o bless_a and_o glorious_a way_n of_o reason_v in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n then_o in_o a_o natural_a way_n i_o have_v think_v to_o have_v go_v over_o the_o other_o two_o thing_n premise_v but_o the_o time_n be_v past_a and_o therefore_o i_o will_v only_o now_o conclude_v this_o with_o one_o or_o two_o short_a word_n of_o use_n and_o first_o of_o all_o i_o will_v here_o in_o love_n admonish_v godliness_n use_v 1_o not_o to_o reject_v all_o reason_n in_o godliness_n you_o that_o be_v the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o take_v heed_n of_o that_o devise_n of_o satan_n whereby_o he_o will_v persuade_v the_o saint_n that_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n in_o godliness_n reason_n be_v a_o word_n that_o be_v much_o prejudice_v among_o professor_n and_o if_o a_o man_n speak_v of_o reason_n they_o be_v ready_a to_o slight_v it_o and_o say_v show_v i_o scripture_n as_o if_o sound_a spiritual_a reason_n and_o the_o scripture_n be_v contrary_a one_o to_o another_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o say_v what_o do_v you_o talk_v to_o i_o of_o reason_n show_v i_o a_o text_n for_o it_o it_o be_v true_a we_o must_v not_o talk_v of_o carnal_a corrupt_a reason_n that_o be_v abominable_a nor_o of_o natural_a reason_n that_o be_v too_o short_a but_o we_o may_v and_o must_v in_o any_o thing_n belong_v to_o godliness_n take_v in_o spiritual_a reason_n and_o if_o it_o hold_v not_o with_o spiritual_a reason_n do_v not_o admit_v of_o it_o let_v it_o be_v what_o opinion_n it_o will_n most_o of_o your_o wander_n and_o mistake_n do_v arise_v from_o want_n of_o observe_v spiritual_a reason_n we_o reject_v reason_n and_o go_v and_o take_v a_o place_n of_o scripture_n and_o so_o hand_n over_o head_n go_v along_o and_o not_o deduct_v thing_n as_o paul_n and_o abraham_n do_v but_o beware_v of_o this_o for_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o godliness_n but_o thou_o may_v find_v sound_a reason_n in_o it_o there_o be_v no_o absurdity_n in_o godliness_n absurdity_n belong_v to_o wicked_a man_n that_o have_v not_o faith_n take_v heed_n of_o reject_v all_o kind_n of_o reason_n in_o godliness_n reject_v carnal_a reason_n and_o expect_v godliness_n to_o be_v above_o natural_a reason_n but_o if_o there_o be_v not_o spiritual_a reason_n in_o what_o thou_o do_v it_o be_v not_o of_o god_n second_o it_o be_v a_o word_n of_o exhortation_n or_o invitation_n christ_n use_v 2._o invitation_n to_o come_v to_o christ_n to_o you_o that_o be_v carnal_a that_o you_o will_v come_v in_o and_o receive_v jesus_n christ_n that_o you_o will_v embrace_v christ_n and_o godliness_n by_o he_o why_o so_o because_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o nature_n that_o may_v take_v with_o man_n but_o there_o be_v that_o and_o that_o in_o a_o more_o excellent_a way_n in_o grace_n if_o man_n have_v grace_n to_o heed_n it_o you_o know_v what_o take_v with_o man_n in_o nature_n ordinary_o most_o of_o mankind_n be_v weak_a and_o come_v not_o up_o so_o high_a as_o to_o action_n and_o contempldtion_n but_o you_o know_v what_o take_v with_o they_o riches_n and_o honour_n etc._n etc._n now_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o in_o christ_n we_o shall_v in_o herite_v all_o these_o thing_n some_o affect_v liberty_n here_o be_v that_o also_o if_o the_o son_n make_v you_o free_a you_o shall_v be_v free_a indeed_o and_o whatsoever_o man_n can_v fancy_v say_v christ_n come_v and_o buy_v of_o i_o gold_n and_o raiment_n and_o milk_n and_o honey_n and_o kingdom_n and_o crown_n and_o whatsoever_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n be_v capable_a of_o but_o there_o be_v some_o that_o feed_v not_o upon_o sensual_a thing_n and_o to_o tell_v they_o of_o pleasure_n and_o honour_n and_o riches_n by_o christ_n do_v not_o so_o much_o take_v they_o but_o thou_o be_v it_o may_v be_v a_o intellectual_a man_n
that_o in_o scripture_n be_v so_o call_v when_o man_n be_v say_v to_o be_v humble_a it_o be_v a_o grace_n that_o be_v never_o away_o from_o a_o saint_n we_o shall_v be_v clothe_v with_o it_o as_o peter_n say_v i_o be_o to_o speak_v of_o it_o in_o that_o sense_n it_o be_v the_o gracious_a lowly_a spiritual_a humble_a frame_n of_o heart_n that_o be_v in_o a_o saint_n and_o be_v in_o no_o wicked_a man_n nor_o can_v be_v as_o i_o shall_v show_v afterward_o second_o when_o i_o be_o speak_v that_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n humble_v the_o soul_n you_o must_v not_o exclude_v 2_o other_o mean_n of_o humiliation_n exclude_v mistake_v here_o and_o think_v that_o i_o exclude_v other_o mean_n inferior_a mean_n for_o i_o tell_v you_o before_o as_o god_n show_v himself_o by_o any_o mean_n by_o any_o creature_n by_o any_o providence_n or_o any_o way_n so_o he_o may_v so_o show_v himself_o that_o way_n that_o he_o may_v humble_v you_o in_o that_o way_n therefore_o you_o must_v not_o say_v that_o therefore_o we_o speak_v against_o mean_n because_o i_o say_v the_o sight_n of_o god_n do_v humble_a a_o saint_n for_o i_o exclude_v not_o other_o mean_n three_o and_o in_o a_o special_a manner_n take_v notice_n occasional_o 3_o sight_n of_o god_n do_v humble_a occasional_o that_o this_o sight_n of_o god_n the_o see_v god_n of_o as_o saint_n do_v see_v he_o do_v not_o proper_o humble_v the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n but_o occasional_o as_o it_o be_v it_o do_v it_o not_o proper_o because_o you_o know_v that_o in_o heaven_n when_o we_o shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n we_o do_v not_o read_v that_o we_o shall_v then_o be_v humble_v we_o shall_v then_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o glory_n every_o way_n and_o yet_o we_o shall_v see_v god_n there_o more_o than_o ever_o we_o do_v before_o but_o belove_v the_o sight_n of_o god_n humble_v we_o here_o occasional_o that_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o frailty_n and_o corruption_n that_o be_v upon_o we_o just_o as_o the_o law_n make_v paul_n to_o sin_n more_o rom._n 7._o sinn_n take_v occasion_n by_o the_o law_n so_o i_o say_v because_o we_o be_v frail_a and_o weak_a and_o vile_a and_o sinful_a every_o apprehension_n of_o a_o glorious_a and_o great_a and_o powerful_a god_n abase_v and_o humble_v we_o as_o in_o luke_n 5._o 8._o when_o peter_n see_v a_o little_a of_o god_n in_o christ_n work_v a_o miracle_n for_o

express_v and_o set_v forth_o in_o scripture_n yet_o it_o be_v but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n so_o it_o hold_v true_a that_o this_o sight_n of_o god_n do_v true_o humble_a the_o soul_n i_o shall_v in_o the_o next_o place_n show_v you_o two_o thing_n first_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o some_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v so_o and_o second_o show_v you_o somewhat_o why_o it_o be_v so_o concern_v the_o first_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o but_o these_o two_o or_o three_o reason_n first_o of_o all_o i_o find_v clear_o in_o scripture_n that_o god_n god_n reas_n 1._o all_o grace_n

difference_n in_o the_o work_n of_o humiliation_n and_o other_o grace_n observe_n that_o every_o other_o grace_n be_v wrought_v in_o the_o soul_n by_o a_o kind_n of_o assimilation_n but_o this_o be_v

from_o what_o i_o have_v say_v it_o be_v evident_a that_o there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n there_o be_v no_o damnation_n there_o be_v no_o danger_n of_o hell_n to_o they_o which_o be_v in_o christ_n

2._o why_o there_o be_v no_o damnation_n to_o those_o people_n for_o the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n jesus_n have_v make_v we_o free_a from_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o death_n now_o he_o amplify_v that_o in_o verse_n 3._o for_o what_o the_o law_n can_v not_o do_v in_o that_o it_o be_v weak_a through_o the_o flesh_n god_n send_v his_o own_o son_n in_o the_o likeness_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n and_o for_o sin_n condemn_a sin_n in_o the_o flesh_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v thus_o it_o come_v about_o that_o we_o be_v now_o free_a from_o the_o law_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o damnation_n to_o we_o because_o say_v he_o that_o god_n have_v send_v his_o son_n in_o the_o
likeness_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n like_o one_o of_o we_o and_o he_o have_v fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o condemn_a sin_n therefore_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n to_o condemn_v we_o nor_o no_o jot_n of_o the_o law_n that_o be_v not_o fullfil_v therefore_o we_o be_v just_a and_o righteous_a and_o clear_a there_o be_v no_o condemnatiom_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n for_o god_n

sin_n be_v dead_a in_o respect_n of_o guilt_n to_o grace_n and_o according_a to_o the_o spirit_n sin_n be_v dead_a in_o they_o that_o be_v they_o be_v dead_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o guilt_n of_o

the_o guilt_n of_o they_o they_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n in_o that_o respect_n they_o see_v that_o there_o be_v a_o full_a righteousness_n in_o jesus_n christ_n that_o have_v satisfy_v the_o

that_o neither_o can_v see_v it_o for_o these_o thing_n be_v spiritual_a now_o take_v a_o man_n that_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v according_a to_o the_o most_o refine_a

in_o his_o service_n the_o more_o guilt_n and_o horror_n but_o a_o man_n that_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o spirit_n let_v he_o be_v weak_a or_o strong_a he_o see_v this_o in_o some_o measure_n and_o probable_o for_o the_o most_o part_n that_o his_o sin_n be_v do_v away_o and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n to_o he_o because_o he_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o believe_v in_o he_o

hold_v forth_o power_n 2._o sin_n be_v dead_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o power_n to_o we_o as_o i_o understand_v that_o a_o beleiver_n be_v plant_v into_o christ_n for_o so_o he_o look_v upon_o himself_o and_o ingraft_v and_o unite_v to_o christ_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n he_o account_v it_o as_o dead_a that_o be_v when_o he_o see_v any_o sin_n stir_v in_o he_o he_o

let_v sin_n be_v never_o so_o strong_a and_o prevalent_a he_o look_v on_o it_o as_o a_o condemn_a thing_n he_o can_v triumph_v over_o it_o when_o it_o be_v strong_a and_o can_v say_v i_o know_v thou_o

they_o be_v more_o holy_a than_o other_o here_o in_o rom._n 6._o we_o gather_v this_o that_o sure_o all_o those_o that_o be_v under_o grace_n or_o that_o walk_n according_a to_o the_o spirit_n in_o

he_o know_v and_o remember_v this_o be_v his_o excercise_n and_o let_v this_o suffice_v to_o show_v what_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o what_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v now_o the_o three_o question_n brief_o be_v what_o be_v mean_v spirit_n quest_n 3._o what_o mean_v by_o mind_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o of_o the_o spirit_n by_o the_o mind_v of_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n you_o must_v understand_v first_o that_o the_o meaning_n be_v not_o as_o though_o a_o man_n may_v not_o think_v upon_o fleshly_a thing_n 1._o not_o but_o that_o a_o saint_n may_v provide_v outward_a thing_n thing_n for_o a_o spiritual_a saint_n oft_o think_v upon_o fleshly_a thing_n in_o a_o spiritual_a manner_n as_o to_o consider_v his_o sin_n to_o bewail_v and_o to_o mourn_v for_o they_o and_o he_o may_v mind_n earthly_a worldly_a thing_n to_o provide_v thing_n honest_a to_o provide_v for_o his_o family_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v he_o may_v think_v of_o his_o business_n therefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n here_o do_v not_o use_v the_o word_n frounesis_n but_o frounena_n frounesis_n signify_v prudence_n or_o discretion_n or_o providence_n in_o business_n he_o do_v not_o use_v that_o lest_o we_o shall_v think_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n forbid_v to_o provide_v to_o be_v mindful_a and_o careful_a of_o worldly_a business_n but_o frounena_n that_o signify_v a_o further_a thing_n as_o i_o shall_v show_v present_o now_o than_o you_o must_v understand_v this_o also_o mean_v 2._o the_o understanding_n be_v not_o only_o mean_v that_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v they_o mind_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n the_o word_n do_v not_o only_o signify_v the_o understanding_n but_o it_o signify_v all_o the_o affection_n also_o i_o can_v give_v you_o divers_a place_n of_o scripture_n where_o this_o word_n be_v set_v down_o to_o express_v the_o work_n of_o any_o affection_n in_o the_o soul_n therefore_o the_o meaning_n be_v not_o only_o of_o the_o mind_n that_o study_v but_o his_o affection_n his_o will_n the_o way_n of_o his_o delight_n his_o joy_n be_v in_o earthly_a thing_n his_o care_n be_v after_o fleshly_a thing_n but_o in_o particular_a there_o be_v these_o four_o or_o five_o thing_n five_o thing_n mean_v by_o mind_v of_o fleshly_a thing_n thing_n imply_v in_o the_o word_n when_o they_o be_v say_v to_o mind_n the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o very_a care_n of_o his_o heart_n as_o fleshly_a 1._o the_o ca●e_n of_o the_o heart_n be_v fleshly_a i_o tell_v you_o before_o be_v fleshly_a and_o carnal_a a_o christian_a have_v outward_a worldly_a thing_n in_o a_o outward_a room_n and_o jesus_n christ_n next_o his_o heart_n there_o be_v say_v one_o godly_a man_n a_o closet_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o saint_n only_o to_o entertain_v jesus_n christ._n which_o the_o scripture_n call_v the_o spirit_n frequent_o i_o worship_v god_n in_o
it_o be_v rough_a for_o i_o every_o day_n to_o dispute_v with_o my_o carnal_a heart_n and_o not_o only_o carry_v on_o good_a but_o deny_v myself_o in_o good_a upon_o spiritual_a reason_n this_o be_v a_o warrefare_n but_o the_o end_n be_v life_n and_o it_o be_v peace_n too_o this_o be_v a_o hard_a work_n you_o will_v say_v and_o therefore_o we_o will_v take_v the_o easy_a and_o small_a work_n belove_a i_o say_v there_o be_v more_o ease_n and_o sweetness_n and_o contentedness_n in_o go_v on_o in_o the_o way_n of_o god_n spiritual_o upon_o spiritual_a reason_n a_o hundred_o fold_n than_o in_o the_o other_o for_o the_o other_o will_v be_v rough_a and_o god_n have_v cast_v it_o so_o god_n have_v put_v a_o curse_n upon_o all_o old_a adam_n he_o curse_v it_o with_o death_n and_o therefore_o he_o must_v die_v that_o walk_v carnal_o and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n all_o your_o natural_a thought_n and_o action_n be_v so_o bitter_a god_n have_v curse_v they_o they_o must_v die_v and_o now_o all_o the_o way_n of_o holiness_n have_v enough_o to_o induce_v thou_o to_o endeavour_v to_o walk_v holy_o as_o one_o say_v the_o glean_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v better_o than_o the_o harvest_n of_o the_o wicked_a man_n if_o there_o be_v no_o hell_n nor_o heaven_n hereafter_o but_o only_o the_o wicked_a to_o have_v the_o pleasure_n of_o sin_n here_o and_o the_o saint_n to_o have_v the_o consolation_n of_o the_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o they_o it_o be_v more_o a_o hundred_o fold_n the_o one_o be_v nothing_o but_o crackle_v of_o thorn_n under_o a_o pot_n and_o the_o end_n be_v smoke_n and_o stink_n and_o the_o other_o be_v sweet_a here_o and_o in_o the_o end_n bless_v eternal_o if_o it_o be_v not_o suppose_v though_o the_o way_n to_o heaven_n be_v bitter_a here_o yet_o it_o be_v sweet_a in_o the_o end_n and_o the_o way_n of_o the_o world_n sweet_a here_o and_o bitter_a in_o the_o end_n yet_o you_o shall_v choose_v holiness_n as_o a_o philosopher_n say_v if_o a_o man_n be_v to_o take_v a_o bitter_a and_o sweet_a thing_n which_o be_v he_o best_o to_o take_v first_o say_v he_o to_o take_v the_o sour_a or_o the_o evil_a first_o and_o the_o sweet_a for_o the_o hope_n
