thing_n be_v know_v it_o be_v know_v that_o such_o a_o thing_n be_v contrary_a to_o god_n and_o i_o ought_v not_o to_o do_v it_o but_o yet_o by_o a_o sudden_a hurry_n of_o temptation_n when_o the_o violence_n of_o temptation_n surprise_v the_o soul_n many_o time_n before_o ever_o it_o can_v recollect_v itself_o it_o be_v carry_v down_o with_o the_o temptation_n even_o against_o a_o clear_a light_n yea_o carry_v against_o it_o as_o if_o a_o cockboat_n shall_v be_v carry_v down_o a_o strong_a stream_n &_o they_o have_v not_o so_o much_o time_n to_o call_v themselves_o to_o a_o account_n to_o think_v whether_o these_o thing_n become_v they_o or_o no_o and_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o aaron_n that_o saint_n of_o the_o lord_n he_o can_v not_o but_o know_v that_o to_o make_v a_o calf_n it_o be_v destructive_a to_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n that_o god_n have_v make_v with_o they_o it_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o implicit_a renounce_n of_o god_n but_o a_o sudden_a temptation_n come_v all_o the_o people_n come_v say_v make_v we_o a_o resemblance_n of_o god_n moses_n be_v go_v we_o will_v have_v it_o he_o be_v surprise_v before_o ever_o he_o can_v recollect_v himself_o and_o so_o moses_n that_o holy_a meek_a man_n when_o a_o sudden_a temptation_n come_v that_o the_o madness_n of_o the_o people_n have_v vex_v he_o that_o he_o can_v not_o recollect_v himself_o he_o speak_v so_o unadvised_o with_o his_o lip_n to_o god_n dishonour_n and_o this_o no_o man_n be_v free_a from_o but_o some_o in_o one_o part_n some_o in_o one_o kind_n and_o some_o in_o another_o all_o god_n people_n before_o they_o be_v aware_a be_v many_o time_n carry_v away_o and_o surprise_v before_o they_o can_v recollect_v themselves_o to_o know_v what_o their_o duty_n be_v but_o yet_o there_o be_v a_o three_o sort_n and_o that_o seem_v to_o go_v deep_o and_o that_o be_v 3._o when_o they_o do_v not_o only_o know_v it_o to_o be_v a_o sin_n but_o deliberate_o commit_v it_o i_o mean_v that_o the_o heart_n be_v tempt_v to_o such_o a_o thing_n say_v the_o soul_n it_o be_v abominable_a it_o be_v against_o god_n i_o will_v not_o do_v it_o but_o betake_v itself_o to_o prayer_n pray_v the_o lord_n to_o assist_v and_o strengthen_v he_o the_o temptation_n come_v again_o and_o gather_v upon_o he_o that_o though_o he_o do_v resist_v it_o yet_o he_o have_v not_o strength_n enough_o to_o overcome_v it_o &_o the_o ground_n of_o it_o be_v because_o the_o holy_a spirit_n who_o be_v a_o free_a agent_n communicate_v so_o much_o strength_n to_o he_o as_o to_o stir_v up_o his_o grace_n and_o to_o draw_v they_o out_o into_o the_o field_n in_o god_n cause_n and_o to_o oppose_v the_o enemy_n and_o give_v he_o some_o strength_n to_o resist_v it_o but_o not_o strength_n enough_o to_o overcome_v it_o but_o leave_v he_o unfit_a and_o without_o sufficient_a strength_n against_o that_o temptation_n and_o of_o this_o i_o think_v the_o apostle_n paul_n main_o mean_v in_o all_o his_o discourse_n in_o rom._n 7._o where_o in_o the_o person_n of_o a_o regenerate_v man_n he_o say_v the_o thing_n i_o will_v not_o do_v i_o do_v and_o when_o i_o will_v do_v good_a evil_a overcome_v i_o i_o will_v not_o do_v the_o evil_a yet_o it_o be_v too_o strong_a for_o i_o &_o then_o complain_v wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o i_o be_o even_o sell_v under_o it_o now_o i_o think_v under_o one_o of_o these_o three_o fall_v all_o the_o common_a infirmity_n of_o all_o that_o love_n jesus_n christ_n in_o sincerity_n they_o be_v either_o mere_a ignorances_n that_o they_o know_v not_o god_n mind_n or_o they_o be_v else_o sudden_a surprise_v hurry_v away_o before_o they_o can_v call_v their_o heart_n and_o grace_n to_o act_v and_o have_v strength_n to_o assist_v they_o or_o else_o the_o lord_n let_v out_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o enemy_n to_o assault_v than_o he_o be_v please_v to_o communicate_v to_o the_o soul_n to_o resist_v and_o under_o one_o of_o these_o i_o say_v do_v all_o the_o infirmity_n of_o god_n people_n fall_v in_o their_o ordinary_a course_n now_o the_o three_o thing_n which_o when_o i_o have_v brief_o dispatch_v than_o i_o will_v go_v to_o the_o next_o which_o be_v the_o great_a question_n be_v three_o how_o this_o may_v be_v know_v and_o i_o will_v speak_v to_o it_o the_o rather_o because_o i_o find_v there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o live_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o church_n i_o mean_v but_o be_v wondrous_a desirous_a to_o have_v all_o his_o lust_n and_o corruption_n to_o be_v adopt_v into_o the_o name_n of_o a_o infirmity_n and_o when_o they_o have_v bring_v they_o under_o that_o burrow_n than_o they_o be_v wonderful_a safe_a in_o their_o own_o eye_n the_o man_n that_o keep_v a_o harlot_n and_o nourish_v his_o wanton_a vain_a glory_n or_o whatsoever_o it_o be_v convince_v he_o of_o it_o i_o say_v he_o god_n help_v i_o it_o be_v my_o infirmity_n no_o man_n live_v without_o his_o infirmity_n and_o when_o they_o have_v once_o get_v they_o under_o that_o name_n of_o a_o infirmity_n than_o all_o that_o you_o say_v concern_v jesus_n christ_n relief_n against_o their_o daily_a sin_n it_o be_v all_o their_o own_o though_o god_n know_v they_o be_v as_o far_o from_o it_o as_o the_o east_n be_v from_o the_o west_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n i_o find_v many_o a_o real_a servant_n of_o god_n that_o if_o their_o corruption_n have_v any_o thing_n in_o it_o that_o carry_v horridness_n to_o the_o conscience_n any_o strange_a distemper_n that_o be_v more_o than_o ordinary_a and_o assault_v they_o and_o buffet_n they_o and_o tread_v they_o under_o foot_n then_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o think_v that_o all_o the_o world_n can_v satisfy_v they_o that_o these_o be_v but_o infirmity_n these_o can_v be_v the_o spot_n of_o god_n people_n and_o so_o that_o neither_o the_o lord_n own_o servant_n may_v be_v discourage_v nor_o wicked_a man_n get_v a_o cloak_n i_o will_v a_o little_a discover_v how_o you_o may_v clear_o know_v what_o be_v the_o infirmity_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o wherein_o they_o differ_v from_o the_o rebellion_n of_o those_o that_o be_v the_o lord_n enemy_n and_o for_o that_o i_o will_v give_v you_o 1._o one_o rule_n that_o be_v negative_a and_o 2._o another_o that_o be_v positive_a 1._o negative_a you_o must_v take_v this_o that_o a_o infirmity_n must_v not_o be_v judge_v of_o by_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o sin_n not_o one_o whit_n judge_v of_o by_o the_o matter_n but_o only_o from_o the_o disposition_n and_o qualification_n of_o the_o person_n that_o commit_v it_o my_o meaning_n plain_o be_v this_o we_o be_v ready_a to_o think_v that_o those_o sin_n that_o be_v but_o petty_a and_o trivial_a they_o must_v all_o have_v the_o name_n of_o infirmity_n and_o those_o sin_n the_o matter_n whereof_o be_v odious_a those_o must_v not_o go_v for_o infirmity_n now_o this_o be_v a_o most_o false_a rule_n for_o a_o sin_n that_o be_v a_o very_a trifle_n if_o it_o be_v but_o a_o idle_a word_n vain_a thought_n petty_a oath_n any_o such_o thing_n as_o it_o may_v be_v commit_v may_v be_v a_o reign_a sin_n and_o a_o path_n of_o the_o way_n that_o lead_v to_o eternal_a damnation_n according_a as_o the_o person_n be_v that_o commit_v it_o and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n even_o a_o great_a sin_n for_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o shall_v it_o be_v murder_n and_o adultery_n i_o instance_n in_o they_o because_o they_o both_o meet_v in_o david_n possible_a it_o be_v that_o the_o thing_n may_v so_o fall_v out_o that_o these_o may_v be_v but_o infirmity_n therefore_o remember_v that_o be_v a_o corrupt_a rule_n and_o all_o you_o that_o please_v yourselves_o with_o this_o that_o god_n keep_v you_o from_o the_o great_a abomination_n you_o be_v no_o whoremaster_n you_o keep_v not_o a_o harlot_n and_o you_o be_v no_o cozener_n nor_o cheater_n in_o your_o trade_n though_o it_o may_v be_v your_o oath_n be_v faith_n and_o troth_n and_o prittle_v prattle_n and_o slight_v of_o holy_a duty_n you_o will_v have_v these_o thing_n pass_v for_o infirmity_n no_o you_o will_v see_v this_o be_v no_o rule_n that_o be_v one_o remember_v you_o must_v not_o judge_v of_o infirmity_n from_o the_o matter_n but_o only_o from_o another_o rule_n which_o i_o will_v give_v you_o and_o that_o be_v this_o 2._o whosoever_o can_v but_o right_o judge_v of_o a_o infirmity_n of_o the_o body_n have_v a_o clear_a rule_n to_o direct_v he_o to_o a_o infirmity_n of_o the_o soul_n now_o all_o infirmity_n of_o the_o body_n they_o have_v all_o of_o they_o these_o three_o thing_n constant_o go_v with_o they_o the_o first_o be_v 1._o they_o never_o be_v our_o choice_n that_o that_o be_v our_o infirmity_n never_o
