eat_v of_o the_o crumb_n which_o fall_v from_o their_o master_n table_n the_o lord_n have_v in_o a_o manner_n call_v her_o dog_n and_o say_v it_o be_v not_o for_o dog_n to_o have_v child_n bread_n she_o do_v not_o deny_v it_o but_o she_o grapple_v with_o grace_n and_o say_v truth_n lord_n yet_o dog_n may_v have_v a_o crumb_n etc._n etc._n i_o shall_v put_v all_o that_o be_v speak_v here_o of_o her_o carriage_n into_o one_o lesson_n but_o before_o i_o do_v that_o i_o shall_v name_v two_o other_o observable_a point_n the_o first_o be_v this_o a_o right_a faith_n come_v and_z carrying_z of_o the_o soul_n to_o christ_n be_v a_o resolute_a faith_n that_o be_v one_o point_n i_o will_v name_v pray_v mark_v it_o the_o lord_n jesus_n seem_v to_o put_v she_o off_o he_o give_v she_o nothing_o that_o be_v a_o visible_a encouragement_n yet_o she_o will_v go_v on_o and_o yet_o she_o will_v not_o be_v put_v off_o when_o the_o soul_n come_v to_o christ_n he_o come_v as_o one_o that_o need_v a_o christ_n and_o want_v a_o christ_n will_v have_v and_o as_o one_o that_o must_v have_v a_o christ_n and_o what_o then_o he_o will_v have_v a_o christ_n before_o he_o go_v away_o though_o he_o have_v not_o evidence_n he_o will_v have_v adherence_n though_o the_o soul_n can_v see_v nothing_o and_o though_o no_o hope_n yet_o he_o will_v be_v resolute_a although_o christ_n will_v not_o smile_v though_o conscience_n be_v not_o quiet_a though_o the_o wound_n be_v not_o heal_v though_o the_o lord_n put_v off_o angry_o yet_o the_o soul_n keep_v resolute_a to_o he_o and_o will_v not_o be_v send_v away_o empty_a faith_n if_o right_a be_v still_o resolute_a the_o second_o point_n that_o i_o shall_v name_v be_v this_o that_o a_o right_a faith_n know_v how_o to_o confess_v and_o believe_v at_o once_o a_o true_a believer_n will_v not_o conceal_v his_o sin_n yet_o will_v close_v with_o jesus_n christ_n a_o right_a faith_n will_v deny_v nothing_o and_o yet_o it_o will_v believe_v all_o thing_n my_o brethren_n mark_v it_o a_o little_a there_o be_v a_o company_n of_o vile_a people_n that_o be_v as_o they_o say_v all_o for_o faith_n and_o nothing_o for_o confession_n and_o what_o say_v they_o believer_n it_o be_v not_o for_o they_o to_o come_v and_o confess_v sin_n why_o a_o believer_n will_v confess_v sin_n do_v the_o lord_n say_v dog_n yes_o truth_n lord_n i_o be_o a_o dog_n will_v the_o soul_n say_v as_o this_o woman_n do_v there_o be_v other_o that_o will_v confess_v and_o not_o believe_v oh_o they_o cry_v out_o they_o must_v confess_v and_o bewail_v and_o lie_v low_a and_o humble_v themselves_o etc._n etc._n but_o they_o can_v believe_v they_o dare_v not_o believe_v confession_n be_v their_o work_n etc._n etc._n why_o poor_a heart_n you_o may_v do_v both_o you_o may_v say_v lord_n i_o be_o a_o sinner_n yet_o i_o believe_v for_o mercy_n be_v for_o sinner_n i_o be_o ungodly_a yet_o i_o believe_v for_o abraham_n believe_v in_o he_o who_o justifi_v the_o ungodly_a i_o be_o a_o dog_n as_o thou_o say_v lord_n yet_o i_o believe_v a_o dog_n may_v gather_v up_o a_o crumb_n well_o remember_v it_o true_a faith_n do_v not_o hinder_v confession_n nor_o confession_n shall_v not_o hinder_v faith_n but_o the_o particular_a lesson_n of_o the_o place_n be_v this_o namely_o that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n the_o wisdom_n the_o glory_n of_o poor_a soul_n to_o carry_v it_o holy_o and_o humble_o unto_o christ_n when_o christ_n seem_v to_o carry_v it_o harsh_o unto_o they_o so_o do_v this_o poor_a woman_n or_o if_o you_o will_v take_v it_o short_o thus_o it_o become_v christian_n to_o carry_v it_o real_o well_o when_o christ_n carry_v it_o seem_o ill_n i_o know_v my_o brethren_n this_o be_v a_o hard_a work_n but_o as_o hard_o as_o it_o be_v we_o must_v learn_v it_o and_o i_o will_v assure_v you_o if_o ever_o god_n intend_v to_o do_v you_o good_a though_o flesh_n and_o blood_n murmur_v yet_o the_o lord_n will_v whip_v you_o into_o this_o lesson_n but_o he_o will_v make_v you_o learn_v it_o namely_o to_o carry_v it_o holy_o to_o he_o when_o he_o carry_v it_o seem_o harsh_a to_o you_o i_o remember_v that_o passage_n in_o 1_o pet._n 2.18_o servant_n be_v obedient_a to_o your_o master_n not_o only_o to_o the_o good_a and_o gentle_a but_o also_o to_o the_o froward_a it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o servant_n profess_v the_o name_n of_o god_n though_o he_o have_v a_o froward_a master_n yet_o he_o must_v carry_v it_o well_o now_o mark_v it_o be_v it_o the_o duty_n of_o a_o servant_n to_o carry_v it_o well_o to_o a_o bad_a master_n and_o be_v it_o not_o the_o duty_n of_o saint_n to_o carry_v it_o well_o to_o christ_n we_o be_v the_o servant_n he_o be_v the_o master_n so_o in_o heb._n 12.9_o mark_v the_o apostle_n argumentation_n say_v he_o we_o have_v have_v father_n of_o our_o flesh_n which_o correct_v we_o and_o we_o give_v they_o reverence_n shall_v we_o not_o much_o rather_o be_v in_o subjection_n unto_o the_o father_n of_o spirit_n and_o l●ve_v mark_v there_o be_v life_n in_o this_o our_o life_n depend_v on_o our_o reverend_a carriage_n in_o this_o case_n alas_o if_o christ_n be_v go_v our_o life_n go_v with_o he_o carry_v it_o well_o therefore_o if_o thou_o love_v thy_o life_n you_o must_v be_v subject_a and_o submissive_a even_o when_o he_o seem_v to_o be_v sharp_a otherwise_o death_n be_v at_o the_o door_n mind_v it_o then_o will_v you_o have_v a_o pardon_n and_o do_v christ_n seem_v to_o deny_v you_o where_o can_v you_o go_v for_o it_o but_o to_o he_o and_o when_o you_o come_v if_o you_o submit_v there_o it_o be_v soul_n in_o the_o point_n be_v your_o life_n therefore_o mark_v the_o lesson_n well_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n wisdom_n and_o glory_n of_o saint_n to_o carry_v it_o well_o to_o christ_n when_o he_o carry_v it_o seem_o ill_a to_o they_o there_o be_v four_o person_n in_o the_o book_n of_o god_n record_v that_o god_n do_v seem_v to_o deal_v very_o hardly_o withal_o and_o of_o

according_a to_o our_o doctrine_n three_o our_o lord_n mother_n carry_v it_o well_o to_o the_o lord_n when_o he_o seem_v to_o carry_v it_o harsh_a to_o she_o in_o john_n 2.3_o there_o you_o have_v

cry_v any_o of_o we_o shame_n who_o be_v so_o far_o from_o a_o cry_n after_o christ_n that_o we_o do_v almost_o cry_v away_o christ_n well_o behold_v she_o praiseworthy_a passion_n and_o go_v thy_o

poor_a publican_n in_o the_o gospel_n of_o luke_n cry_v lord_n be_v merciful_a to_o i_o a_o sinner_n my_o brethren_n right_o close_v with_o christ_n right_o save_v justify_v faith_n which_o carry_v

when_o we_o come_v to_o christ_n three_o observe_v a_o little_o further_a what_o she_o say_v lord_n thou_o son_n of_o david_n she_o speak_v in_o language_n beyond_o the_o learning_n of_o the_o

of_o david_n it_o be_v indeed_o a_o miracle_n that_o a_o woman_n of_o canaan_n shall_v have_v this_o knowledge_n and_o we_o may_v say_v as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o another_o case_n of_o christ_n whence_o have_v this_o woman_n knowledge_n why_o my_o brethren_n what_o can_v any_o of_o we_o have_v say_v more_o to_o christ_n to_o speak_v out_o our_o faith_n what_o be_v it_o but_o that_o we_o do_v believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n this_o phrase_n speak_v faith_n learn_v hence_o in_o all_o your_o address_n to_o christ_n to_o come_v in_o the_o language_n of_o faith_n and_o speak_v to_o christ_n as_o become_v jesus_n christ_n still_o know_v he_o be_v the_o lord_n david_n son_n the_o promise_a one_o indeed_o when_o you_o come_v to_o deal_v with_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o hasty_a consider_v who_o he_o be_v he_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o david_n the_o true_a and_o the_o only_a messiah_n remember_v this_o lesson_n in_o all_o your_o address_n to_o jesus_n christ_n remember_v this_o good_a example_n it_o be_v a_o saint_n pattern_n there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o people_n i_o will_v desire_v to_o look_v upon_o this_o pattern_n the_o first_o be_v those_o who_o it_o may_v be_v be_v but_o now_o begin_v to_o close_v with_o jesus_n christ_n and_o second_o those_o who_o it_o may_v be_v have_v revolt_v and_o back_o slide_v from_o christ_n and_o be_v now_o return_v again_o i_o pray_v sir_n make_v as_o much_o haste_n as_o you_o can_v but_o observe_v how_o you_o go_v go_v to_o jesus_n christ_n with_o much_o affection_n with_o much_o humility_n renounce_v merit_n and_o cry_v mercy_n and_o still_o give_v the_o lord_n his_o due_n so_o you_o see_v this_o woman_n of_o canaan_n do_v and_o go_v thou_o o_o soul_n in_o any_o case_n and_o do_v likewise_o that_o be_v all_o i_o will_v speak_v to_o the_o second_o head_n to_o proceed_v to_o the_o three_o and_o last_o thing_n behold_v once_o again_o the_o occasion_n of_o this_o woman_n come_v it_o be_v that_o

you_o shall_v observe_v that_o god_n send_v they_o affliction_n do_v not_o arise_v out_o of_o the_o dust_n if_o any_o evil_a be_v in_o the_o city_n or_o family_n it_o be_v the_o finger_n of_o the_o

the_o lord_n do_v not_o always_o sanctify_v affliction_n where_o he_o send_v it_o but_o sometime_o god_n do_v sanctify_v it_o unto_o many_o good_a and_o gracious_a end_n and_o purpose_n and_o in_o

jesus_n christ_n in_o all_o which_o the_o lord_n do_v sometime_o to_o some_o person_n make_v use_n of_o corporal_a affliction_n first_o there_o be_v that_o which_o we_o call_v our_o first_o

which_o be_v as_o it_o be_v our_o come_n near_a and_o near_o three_o there_o be_v our_o come_v to_o christ_n which_o be_v our_o return_n after_o some_o eminent_a revolt_n when_o a_o soul_n have_v leave_v its_o first_o love_n now_o in_o all_o these_o and_o unto_o all_o these_o the_o lord_n do_v sometime_o sanctify_v external_a affliction_n the_o lord_n do_v sometime_o sanctify_v external_a affliction_n to_o bring_v the_o soul_n home_o to_o himself_o as_o poverty_n the_o lord_n make_v many_o a_o one_o poor_a that_o they_o may_v look_v after_o a_o rich_a christ_n and_o disgrace_v from_o

the_o lord_n do_v sometime_o kill_v the_o child_n body_n to_o save_v the_o mother_n soul_n take_v away_o the_o husband_n the_o he_o may_v bring_v the_o wife_n home_o to_o himself_o we_o may_v give_v many_o notable_a instance_n as_o in_o matth._n 8.2_o there_o you_o find_v a_o leper_n come_v to_o christ_n and_o what_o occasion_n bring_v he_o true_o this_o man_n leprosy_n bring_v he_o to_o christ_n

aim_v at_o in_o this_o doctrine_n use_v 1_o the_o first_o use_n be_v to_o let_v we_o all_o see_v that_o christ_n be_v not_o so_o easy_o come_v by_o as_o the_o generality_n of_o people_n do_v think_v all_o have_v christ_n free_o but_o not_o easy_o mind_v it_o my_o brethren_n i_o think_v and_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o my_o thought_n because_o it_o may_v awaken_v you_o and_o do_v you_o good_a i_o think_v many_o will_v go_v to_o hell_n as_o upon_o other_o mistake_n so_o upon_o this_o that_o they_o do_v think_v it_o easy_a to_o go_v to_o heaven_n and_o easy_a to_o come_v by_o jesus_n christ_n but_o if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o christ_n stand_v a_o loof_o off_o from_o a_o poor_a soul_n than_o it_o will_v appear_v to_o be_v a_o hard_a work_n to_o come_v by_o he_o remember_v this_o you_o will_v find_v three_o thing_n will_v make_v it_o hard_a work_n ere_o jesus_n christ_n and_o you_o be_v bring_v together_o 1_o the_o backwardness_n of_o your_o own_o heart_n 2_o the_o many_o hinder_a ance_n and_o put_v in_o of_o satan_n 3_o and_o the_o seem_a backwardness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n first_o your_o own_o heart_n will_v be_v backward_o ah_o soul_n unless_o the_o lord_n make_v it_o a_o day_n of_o his_o power_n they_o be_v not_o a_o willing_a people_n psa_n 110._o he_o that_o talk_v of_o freewill_n i_o be_o afraid_a be_v never_o sensible_a of_o freegrace_n nor_o of_o the_o backwardness_n of_o his_o own_o heart_n second_o the_o devil_n make_v it_o hard_a work_n too_o very_o when_o the_o soul_n will_v go_v to_o christ_n the_o devil_n will_v hinder_v and_o set_v one_o to_o hinder_v another_o to_o keep_v the_o soul_n off_o from_o go_v to_o jesus_n christ_n but_o three_o and_o especial_o the_o seem_a harsh_a deal_v of_o jesus_n christ_n make_v it_o very_o hard_a work_n oh_o say_v some_o poor_a soul_n my_o think_v the_o lord_n make_v i_o willing_a and_o hunger_a after_o a_o christ_n but_o when_o i_o come_v to_o christ_n christ_n hang_v off_o my_o think_v god_n the_o father_n be_v willing_a i_o shall_v have_v christ_n he_o have_v send_v he_o the_o spirit_n be_v willing_a he_o have_v reveal_v christ_n to_o i_o and_o my_o heart_n be_v willing_a but_o i_o come_v to_o christ_n and_o he_o do_v not_o hear_v i_o very_o here_o you_o will_v find_v difficulty_n and_o it_o will_v much_o pazzle_v and_o try_v faith_n to_o believe_v upon_o and_o close_o with_o a_o christ_n who_o seem_v to_o stand_v at_o a_o distance_n his_o seem_a harsh_a deal_v will_v make_v it_o real_a hard_a believe_a use_v 2._o the_o second_o use_n be_v of_o caution_n i_o pray_v learn_v by_o this_o to_o take_v heed_n how_o you_o provoke_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o deal_v thus_o harsh_o with_o any_o of_o you_o my_o brethren_n the_o lord_n christ_n can_v frown_v and_o look_v bitter_o and_o deal_v severe_o etc._n etc._n and_o beware_v how_o you_o provoke_v he_o so_o to_o do_v the_o truth_n be_v there_o be_v some_o soul_n that_o rational_o i_o mean_v religious_o rational_o can_v expect_v otherwise_o that_o if_o christ_n do_v receive_v they_o he_o shall_v receive_v they_o very_o harsh_o let_v i_o in_o a_o word_n touch_v upon_o this_o and_o do_v you_o remember_v it_o two_o word_n i_o will_v speak_v my_o mind_n in_o that_o i_o may_v not_o be_v mistake_v first_o this_o i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o there_o be_v any_o soul_n that_o have_v reason_n to_o think_v jesus_n christ_n will_v reject_v they_o whatever_o you_o be_v canaanite_n perisite_a or_o jebusite_n etc._n etc._n whoever_o you_o be_v before_o the_o lord_n i_o do_v not_o say_v there_o be_v reason_n for_o you_o to_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o come_n to_o the_o lord_n but_o this_o i_o say_v second_o that_o though_o you_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o think_v he_o will_v cast_v you_o off_o yet_o you_o have_v reason_n to_o think_v he_o will_v deal_v harsh_o with_o you_o you_o may_v have_v reason_n to_o fear_v he_o will_v not_o present_o entertain_v you_o first_o i_o think_v there_o be_v some_o soul_n that_o may_v very_o expect_v god_n may_v make_v they_o stand_v at_o the_o door_n and_o wait_v till_o they_o cool_v their_o heel_n and_o though_o christ_n will_v let_v they_o in_o at_o last_o yet_o he_o may_v set_v they_o stand_v all_o night_n some_o soul_n christ_n may_v let_v they_o be_v hoarse_a with_o cry_v and_o yet_o jesus_n christ_n may_v stand_v off_o second_o there_o be_v some_o soul_n that_o may_v expect_v that_o though_o he_o shall_v let_v they_o in_o yet_o it_o may_v be_v with_o they_o as_o with_o some_o child_n the_o child_n be_v let_v in_o and_o he_o sit_v at_o the_o

it_o may_v be_v three_o there_o be_v some_o soul_n that_o may_v expect_v that_o though_o christ_n will_v give_v they_o mercy_n yet_o he_o will_v dispure_v it_o out_o with_o they_o that_o they_o

reason_n to_o think_v that_o though_o christ_n may_v receive_v they_o at_o last_o yet_o it_o may_v be_v very_o harsh_a at_o first_o first_o those_o that_o have_v deal_v very_o harsh_o with_o jesus_n
