threaten_v sometime_o in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n now_o therefore_o that_o they_o may_v convince_v people_n that_o they_o aim_v only_o at_o good_a unto_o they_o in_o this_o therefore_o they_o must_v be_v of_o as_o love_v and_o gentle_a and_o quiet_a and_o patient_a spirit_n as_o possible_a may_v be_v especial_o in_o their_o own_o cause_n and_o that_o be_v the_o trial_n you_o sometime_o prehaps_o hear_v a_o minister_n preach_v hard_a thing_n and_o you_o think_v they_o come_v with_o much_o harshness_n to_o you_o and_o your_o heart_n be_v ready_a to_o rise_v against_o they_o but_o examine_v

they_o must_v be_v of_o such_o disposition_n that_o they_o may_v win_v upon_o people_n and_o draw_v their_o heart_n as_o in_o hos_n 11._o 4._o i_o draw_v they_o with_o cord_n of_o a_o man_n and_o with_o the_o band_n of_o love_n and_o indeed_o this_o be_v one_o special_a reason_n why_o god_n send_v man_n to_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n rather_o than_o angel_n that_o there_o may_v not_o be_v any_o terror_n strike_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o people_n if_o angel_n shall_v appear_v they_o will_v be_v exceed_o dreadful_a and_o terrible_a but_o god_n do_v rather_o choose_v man_n to_o be_v a_o minister_n that_o so_o he_o may_v suit_v himself_o to_o the_o disposition_n of_o man_n and_o draw_v with_o the_o cord_n of_o man_n and_o what_o be_v that_o that_o be_v with_o the_o

2._o that_o minister_n ought_v to_o bless_v their_o people_n for_o so_o these_o word_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v not_o only_o as_o to_o manifest_v their_o disposition_n to_o give_v they_o a_o taste_n of_o their_o spirit_n but_o as_o a_o benediction_n to_o they_o peace_n be_v to_o this_o place_n we_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n bless_v you_o with_o peace_n and_o this_o be_v more_o than_o to_o pray_v for_o they_o minister_n be_v to_o pray_v for_o people_n god_n forb●d_v say_v samuel_n that_o i_o shall_v sin_v against_o the_o lord_n in_o cease_v to_o pray_v for_o you_o but_o minister_n shall_v do_v more_o they_o be_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o bless_v they_o prayer_n it_o be_v a_o speak_v unto_o god_n but_o blessing_n it_o be_v to_o speak_v from_o god_n to_o man_n and_o that_o with_o some_o kind_n of_o authority_n therefore_o we_o find_v in_o scripture_n that_o the_o lesser_a be_v bless_v of_o the_o great_a and_o that_o the_o minister_n be_v appoint_v to_o bless_v the_o people_n in_o the_o old_a law_n numb_a 6._o 23._o speak_v unto_o aaron_n and_o to_o his_o son_n say_v on_o this_o wise_a you_o shall_v bless_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n say_v unto_o

upon_o thou_o and_o give_v thou_o peace_n here_o be_v blessing_n in_o the_o old_a law_n and_o they_o retain_v some_o part_n of_o it_o in_o come_v to_o any_o place_n when_o they_o say_v peace_n be_v to_o this_o place_n we_o read_v of_o man_n of_o great_a esteem_n among_o the_o people_n of_o the_o jew_n that_o be_v wont_a to_o bless_v those_o that_o they_o come_v unto_o as_o you_o find_v that_o of_o boaz_n in_o ruth_n 2._o 4._o he_o pray_v for_o they_o and_o they_o bless_v he_o here_o be_v a_o sweet_a salutation_n of_o a_o man_n that_o do_v set_v other_o man_n on_o work_n boaz_n come_v into_o the_o field_n and_o say_v unto_o the_o keeper_n the_o lord_n be_v with_o you_o and_o they_o answer_v he_o the_o lord_n bless_v thou_o many_o man_n when_o they_o go_v among_o their_o workman_n they_o go_v with_o rage_v and_o curse_v if_o thing_n be_v not_o do_v according_a to_o their_o mind_n now_o what_o a_o unseemly_a thing_n be_v this_o among_o those_o who_o profess_v themselves_o christian_n but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n this_o be_v gracious-like_a to_o come_v among_o their_o servant_n and_o workman_n and_o thus_o to_o bless_v they_o the_o lord_n be_v with_o you_o and_o they_o to_o pray_v for_o they_o and_o the_o lord_n bless_v thou_o and_o so_o we_o read_v of_o pure_a parent_n to_o bless_v their_o child_n and_o it_o have_v be_v the_o use_n of_o the_o church_n to_o bless_v the_o people_n therefore_o in_o all_o congregation_n where_o you_o meet_v with_o the_o exercise_n of_o religion_n you_o use_v to_o have_v a_o blessing_n before_o you_o go_v and_o you_o be_v not_o to_o flight_v it_o and_o except_o god_n call_v you_o out_o by_o extraordinary_a occasion_n you_o be_v to_o abide_v and_o stay_v the_o blessing_n we_o read_v of_o some_o that_o be_v appoint_v by_o god_n to_o stand_v upon_o mount_n gerisim_n in_o deut._n 27._o and_o their_o work_n be_v only_o to_o bless_v to_o bless_v the_o people_n and_o there_o be_v some_o who_o stand_v upon_o mount_n ebal_n and_o they_o be_v to_o curse_n but_o now_o mark_v if_o we_o search_v who_o they_o be_v that_o be_v appoint_v to_o bless_n you_o shall_v find_v they_o to_o be_v more_o honourable_a than_o those_o that_o be_v appoint_v to_o curse_n for_o those_o that_o be_v appoint_v to_o curse_n there_o be_v reuben_n he_o have_v lose_v his_o birthright_n and_o gad_n and_o ashur_n and_o dan_n and_o napthali_n they_o be_v child_n of_o the_o handmaid_n they_o be_v not_o beget_v in_o the_o way_n of_o marriage_n but_o only_o by_o the_o handmaid_n or_o by_o a_o concubine_n most_o of_o these_o that_o be_v to_o stand_v upon_o mount_n ebal_n for_o curse_v they_o be_v of_o the_o mean_a sort_n of_o the_o tribe_n this_o note_n thus_o much_o that_o blessing_n be_v the_o chief_a work_n that_o minister_n shall_v rejoice_v and_o delight_n in_o therefore_o though_o they_o do_v sometime_o pronounce_v the_o threat_n of_o god_n against_o you_o to_o awaken_v secure_a drowsy_a sinner_n which_o be_v their_o work_n likewise_o yet_o certain_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o suitable_a unto_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o godly_a minister_n than_o to_o be_v always_o bless_v of_o his_o people_n and_o to_o be_v bring_v of_o the_o message_n of_o blessing_n unto_o they_o and_o if_o this_o be_v so_o then_o certain_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n they_o be_v a_o great_a blessing_n in_o the_o world_n and_o you_o that_o be_v people_n you_o shall_v encourage_v your_o minister_n to_o bless_v you_o and_o to_o bless_v god_n for_o you_o your_o carriage_n towards_o they_o shall_v be_v such_o as_o they_o may_v with_o cheerfulness_n in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n bless_v you_o and_o they_o may_v in_o secret_a when_o they_o be_v between_o god_n and_o themselves_o bless_v god_n for_o you_o o_o when_o as_o the_o minister_n shall_v first_o look_v upon_o the_o people_n and_o bless_v they_o in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o bless_v god_n for_o they_o and_o the_o people_n shall_v look_v again_o upon_o the_o minister_n and_o pray_v to_o god_n for_o a_o blessing_n upon_o he_o and_o bless_v god_n that_o ever_o they_o know_v he_o i_o say_v happy_a be_v the_o minister_n that_o thus_o bless_v and_o bless_v god_n for_o a_o people_n and_o happy_a likewise_o the_o people_n that_o do_v thus_o pray_v for_o a_o blessing_n upon_o and_o bless_v god_n for_o a_o minister_n but_o more_o bless_a be_v that_o god_n that_o shall_v join_v such_o minister_n and_o people_n together_o and_o that_o be_v the_o second_o note_n that_o minister_n be_v to_o bless_v people_n when_o they_o
box_n on_o the_o ear_n from_o a_o inferior_a or_o a_o equal_a or_o from_o one_o a_o little_a above_o you_o but_o if_o so_o be_v a_o king_n shall_v be_v near_o and_o strike_v you_o you_o can_v bear_v that_o you_o will_v not_o be_v so_o ready_a to_o rise_v against_o he_o as_o against_o a_o inferior_a man_n strike_v of_o you_o why_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o be_v infinite_o above_o we_o that_o be_v the_o infinite_a glorious_a and_o bless_a god_n he_o must_v be_v submit_v to_o yea_o second_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o have_v the_o absolute_a right_n to_o we_o and_o all_o that_o we_o have_v more_o than_o we_o have_v to_o ourselves_o or_o any_o thing_n that_o we_o enjoy_v it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o have_v the_o absolute_a authority_n over_o we_o to_o do_v with_o we_o what_o he_o will_v you_o have_v not_o so_o much_o authority_n over_o a_o worm_n under_o your_o foot_n as_o god_n have_v over_o you_o and_o over_o all_o your_o comfort_n you_o have_v not_o so_o much_o right_a to_o kill_v a_o fly_n as_o the_o lord_n have_v to_o take_v away_o your_o life_n he_o have_v more_o right_o a_o thousand_o thousand_o time_n over_o your_o life_n family_n comfort_n and_o all_o you_o have_v than_o you_o have_v over_o the_o mean_a creature_n he_o have_v the_o absolute_a right_n over_o you_o all_o if_o any_o thing_n be_v do_v amiss_o in_o a_o family_n and_o the_o servant_n be_v fall_v out_o one_o with_o another_o and_o one_o say_v you_o do_v thus_o and_o thus_o and_o the_o other_o say_v you_o do_v it_o and_o so_o be_v wrangle_v one_o with_o another_o now_o if_o the_o master_n come_v and_o say_v why_o it_o be_v i_o that_o do_v it_o he_o make_v account_n that_o this_o shall_v still_v they_o all_o because_o it_o be_v he_o that_o have_v right_a to_o do_v it_o why_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o for_o we_o to_o stand_v fret_v against_o any_o mean_n for_o it_o be_v the_o great_a sovereign_a lord_n that_o have_v the_o absolute_a power_n and_o dominion_n over_o we_o and_o then_o three_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n we_o have_v sin_v against_o and_o have_v we_o at_o infinite_a advantage_n that_o way_n it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o we_o be_v liable_a unto_o while_o we_o be_v here_o in_o this_o world_n and_o carry_v about_o with_o we_o so_o much_o sin_n we_o can_v have_v any_o serious_a thought_n of_o god_n but_o we_o must_v needs_o have_v thought_n how_o we_o have_v sin_v against_o this_o god_n and_o what_o advantage_n this_o god_n have_v we_o at_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o sin_n oh_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o we_o have_v offend_v and_o sin_v against_o four_o hence_o it_o follow_v it_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v he_o that_o if_o he_o have_v bring_v a_o little_a affliction_n he_o may_v bring_v abundant_o more_o if_o he_o please_v it_o be_v he_o who_o power_n as_o it_o be_v not_o shorten_v in_o a_o way_n of_o help_n so_o not_o in_o a_o way_n of_o affliction_n have_v he_o afflict_v in_o one_o kind_n he_o may_v in_o a_o hundred_o if_o he_o please_v have_v he_o afflict_v thou_o in_o thy_o estate_n he_o may_v have_v afflict_v thou_o in_o thy_o body_n have_v he_o afflict_v thou_o in_o thy_o body_n he_o may_v have_v afflict_v thou_o in_o thy_o soul_n have_v he_o afflict_v thou_o in_o thy_o soul_n here_o he_o may_v have_v send_v thou_o down_o to_o hell_n eternal_o be_v it_o upon_o any_o within_o thy_o dwelling-place_n it_o may_v have_v be_v upon_o thyself_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o have_v we_o under_o his_o foot_n and_o if_o he_o bring_v the_o least_o evil_a he_o may_v have_v bring_v as_o much_o as_o he_o please_v he_o may_v have_v afflict_v we_o abundant_o more_o than_o he_o have_v do_v and_o this_o be_v a_o mighty_a humble_v consideration_n to_o quiet_a the_o heart_n under_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o then_o five_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n why_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o have_v do_v all_o the_o good_a that_o ever_o we_o have_v enjoy_v it_o be_v he_o that_o have_v do_v all_o good_a to_o we_o you_o have_v a_o affliction_n but_o have_v you_o no_o mercy_n do_v you_o enjoy_v no_o good_a why_o from_o whence_o be_v it_o be_v it_o not_o from_o the_o lord_n shall_v i_o receive_v good_a from_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o not_o evil_a say_v job_n why_o even_o the_o savage_a beast_n will_v bear_v stroke_n from_o they_o that_o feed_v they_o the_o very_a bear_n will_v suffer_v the_o bearward_n that_o bring_v they_o meat_n to_o strike_v they_o they_o will_v not_o suffer_v a_o stranger_n so_o much_o but_o those_o that_o bring_v they_o meat_n they_o receive_v good_a from_o they_o and_o therefore_o they_o will_v submit_v to_o they_o now_o we_o receive_v infinite_a good_a from_o god_n daily_o good_a and_o that_o be_v a_o very_a useful_a meditation_n for_o we_o to_o consider_v of_o in_o time_n of_o affliction_n there_o be_v this_o good_a or_o that_o particular_a good_a take_v from_o i_o but_o what_o do_v i_o enjoy_v or_o what_o have_v i_o enjoy_v it_o be_v a_o usual_a thing_n in_o affliction_n to_o keep_v the_o sight_n of_o god_n from_o we_o as_o the_o put_v a_o thing_n but_o as_o big_a as_o a_o twopence_n upon_o the_o eye_n it_o will_v keep_v the_o sight_n of_o all_o the_o heaven_n from_o we_o and_o so_o a_o little_a affliction_n many_o time_n keep_v the_o sight_n of_o all_o the_o good_a that_o we_o do_v enjoy_v from_o we_o but_o when_o we_o consider_v it_o be_v the_o lord_n the_o infinite_a fountain_n of_o all_o good_a this_o be_v a_o mighty_a quiet_v consideration_n six_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n he_o be_v just_a and_o righteous_a in_o all_o his_o proceed_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o righteousness_n in_o he_o in_o all_o his_o way_n in_o very_a faithfulness_n say_v david_n have_v thou_o afflict_v i_o it_o may_v be_v some_o affliction_n may_v come_v from_o man_n and_o we_o may_v think_v they_o deal_v unrighteous_o and_o unjust_o but_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o righteousness_n in_o all_o his_o way_n if_o we_o shall_v think_v why_o these_o affliction_n they_o fall_v upon_o i_o and_o such_o and_o such_o they_o escape_v you_o must_v not_o reason_v so_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v righteous_a you_o think_v it_o may_v be_v better_o thus_o and_o thus_o but_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o be_v just_a and_o righteous_a in_o all_o his_o proceed_n and_o in_o all_o his_o way_n yea_o seven_o as_o righteous_a so_o infinite_o wise_a he_o be_v infinite_o wise_a and_o so_o know_v how_o to_o order_n thing_n in_o the_o best_a way_n that_o may_v be_v he_o know_v what_o be_v fit_a both_o for_o we_o and_o for_o his_o own_o glory_n we_o be_v poor_a weak_a creature_n but_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o see_v infinite_o beyond_o we_o eight_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o have_v always_o very_o holy_a end_n in_o all_o his_o deal_n he_o have_v holy_a end_n and_o aim_v at_o great_a and_o holy_a thing_n though_o perhaps_o we_o know_v they_o not_o and_o therefore_o he_o be_v to_o do_v whatsoever_o he_o will_n we_o use_v to_o say_v of_o a_o man_n if_o we_o see_v he_o to_o be_v a_o wise_a and_o understanding_n man_n yea_o a_o just_a man_n and_o to_o be_v a_o man_n that_o do_v all_o thing_n always_o from_o good_a principle_n and_o for_o good_a end_n let_v he_o alone_o though_o we_o do_v not_o understand_v what_o he_o be_v do_v yet_o let_v he_o alone_o he_o know_v what_o he_o do_v it_o be_v the_o lord_n let_v he_o alone_o in_o his_o work_n let_v he_o do_v what_o seem_v he_o good_a nine_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o he_o be_v able_a to_o bring_v good_a out_o of_o the_o great_a evil_n to_o bring_v light_a out_o of_o darkness_n yea_o to_o bring_v the_o great_a good_a out_o of_o the_o great_a evil_n i_o very_o believe_v that_o many_o of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n have_v find_v it_o so_o that_o the_o great_a blessing_n that_o ever_o they_o have_v have_v since_o they_o be_v bear_v have_v be_v usher_v in_o by_o the_o great_a affliction_n certain_o as_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o suffer_v sin_n in_o the_o world_n be_v it_o not_o for_o his_o infinite_a power_n to_o bring_v about_o good_a from_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n so_o neither_o will_v he_o suffer_v affliction_n in_o the_o world_n to_o his_o saint_n but_o that_o he_o know_v he_o have_v power_n enough_o to_o bring_v good_a to_o they_o even_o out_o of_o their_o great_a

seem_v i_o have_v be_v as_o dead_a dead_a hear_v then_o somewhat_o that_o i_o be_o this_o day_n to_o say_v to_o you_o as_o you_o know_v dives_n say_v if_o one_o come_v from_o the_o dead_a they_o will_v hear_v he_o here_o what_o i_o have_v to_o say_v to_o you_o from_o this_o point_n first_o o_o let_v this_o sink_v into_o your_o heart_n as_o if_o one_o shall_v come_v from_o the_o dead_a to_o speak_v it_o to_o you_o namely_o this_o that_o god_n be_v so_o infinite_o worthy_a of_o honour_n from_o you_o that_o you_o shall_v be_v at_o a_o point_n whether_o you_o honour_v he_o either_o in_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o mercy_n or_o suffer_v of_o affliction_n it_o be_v no_o great_a matter_n the_o honour_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v so_o dear_a to_o you_o and_o you_o shall_v so_o much_o love_v he_o your_o heart_n shall_v be_v so_o much_o with_o god_n as_o you_o shall_v leave_v it_o whole_o to_o himself_o which_o way_n he_o will_v be_v honour_v by_o you_o sure_o though_o we_o think_v we_o have_v a_o love_n to_o god_n and_o we_o will_v honour_v he_o yet_o our_o love_n to_o god_n and_o desire_v to_o honour_v he_o be_v very_o little_a if_o so_o be_v that_o we_o do_v not_o whole_o resign_v up_o ourselves_o to_o he_o to_o do_v in_o we_o and_o by_o we_o as_o he_o will_v then_o indeed_o be_v the_o heart_n right_o and_o this_o be_v honour_v god_n as_o a_o god_n when_o there_o be_v a_o full_a yield_v up_o of_o the_o heart_n and_o when_o it_o be_v in_o a_o manner_n indifferent_a what_o way_n god_n will_v take_v then_o your_o heart_n be_v come_v to_o a_o right_a frame_n second_o the_o second_o thing_n that_o i_o will_v say_v to_o you_o be_v this_o that_o there_o be_v so_o great_a evil_n in_o sin_n and_o o_o that_o god_n will_v make_v it_o take_v as_o great_a a_o impression_n upon_o you_o as_o if_o one_o from_o the_o dead_a speak_v it_o as_o the_o least_o stop_v one_o in_o the_o way_n of_o sin_n the_o least_o abate_v the_o power_n of_o sin_n have_v so_o much_o good_a in_o it_o as_o it_o be_v enough_o to_o countervail_v the_o great_a evil_n in_o the_o great_a affliction_n in_o the_o world_n o_o this_o principle_n will_v be_v of_o mighty_a use_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o people_n when_o any_o affliction_n do_v befall_v they_o or_o their_o family_n but_o do_v god_n by_o this_o at_o least_o stop_v i_o in_o any_o way_n of_o sin_n do_v not_o god_n by_o this_o some_o way_n or_o other_o help_v i_o against_o some_o sin_n o_o then_o the_o affliction_n be_v well_o pay_v for_o i_o have_v now_o a_o great_a good_n abundant_o than_o the_o evil_n of_o the_o affliction_n come_v to_o there_o be_v a_o little_a bitter_a but_o here_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o sweet_a three_o there_o be_v more_o good_a in_o any_o exercise_n of_o any_o grace_n than_o there_o be_v evil_a in_o the_o bear_n of_o any_o affliction_n if_o god_n do_v bring_v a_o affliction_n but_o for_o the_o exercise_n of_o any_o grace_n or_o for_o the_o stir_v up_o thy_o heart_n but_o to_o look_v towards_o he_o there_o may_v be_v more_o good_a in_o that_o than_o there_o be_v evil_a in_o any_o affliction_n perhaps_o thou_o be_v go_v up_o and_o down_o muddle_v in_o the_o world_n and_o thy_o thought_n be_v but_o little_a upon_o he_o before_o why_o if_o by_o affliction_n thou_o come_v but_o to_o look_v after_o god_n his_o be_v a_o great_a good_a than_o the_o evil_n of_o the_o affliction_n come_v to_o but_o if_o god_n bless_v thou_o so_o as_o thou_o come_v to_o exercise_n grace_n in_o it_o humility_n patience_n self-denial_n faith_n o_o here_o thy_o affliction_n be_v abundant_o make_v up_o oh_o labour_n therefore_o upon_o the_o consideration_n of_o this_o that_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n to_o submit_v humble_o to_o he_o this_o be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n suppose_v you_o have_v two_o child_n

i_o will_v present_o do_v it_o though_o it_o be_v never_o so_o grievous_a and_o bitter_a i_o will_v take_v it_o now_o will_v it_o not_o make_v your_o heart_n relent_v towards_o such_o a_o child_n that_o shall_v be_v so_o yieldable_a will_v lie_v this_o way_n or_o that_o way_n take_v this_o thing_n or_o that_o thing_n and_o all_o because_o it_o come_v from_o a_o father_n if_o the_o child_n

preach_v to_o a_o place_n it_o do_v not_o only_o make_v a_o accept_v time_n and_o a_o day_n of_o salvation_n but_o it_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o prayer_n of_o jesus_n christ_n even_o of_o that_o prayer_n that_o christ_n have_v make_v to_o god_n the_o father_n that_o he_o will_v in_o such_o a_o time_n send_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o be_v clear_o and_o powerful_o teach_v in_o

and_o give_v thou_o for_o a_o covenant_n of_o the_o people_n to_o establish_v the_o earth_n to_o cause_v to_o inherit_v the_o desolate_a heritage_n now_o say_v god_n concern_v christ_n thus_o say_v the_o lord_n in_o a_o acceptable_a time_n have_v i_o hear_v thou_o what_o be_v that_o acceptable_a time_n it_o be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n do_v interpret_v to_o be_v a_o day_n of_o salvation_n the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o a_o acceptable_a time_n and_o of_o a_o day_n of_o salvation_n and_o say_v he_o now_o it_o be_v now_o while_o we_o be_v preach_v the_o glad_a tiding_n of_o the_o gospel_n unto_o you_o and_o here_o say_v the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o lord_n have_v hear_v thou_o in_o a_o acceptable_a time_n and_o in_o a_o day_n of_o salvation_n that_o be_v when_o as_o jesus_n christ_n do_v pray_v to_o god_n the_o father_n for_o his_o church_n that_o shall_v be_v that_o god_n will_v send_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n unto_o those_o who_o the_o father_n have_v give_v unto_o he_o from_o all_o eternity_n i_o say_v jesus_n christ_n do_v pray_v unto_o the_o father_n for_o they_o now_o say_v god_n i_o have_v hear_v thy_o prayer_n and_o i_o have_v grant_v what_o thou_o pray_v for_o and_o this_o hear_n of_o thy_o prayer_n it_o be_v a_o acceptable_a time_n and_o it_o be_v a_o day_n of_o salvation_n thou_o have_v a_o day_n of_o salvation_n according_a to_o thy_o prayer_n and_o this_o very_a day_n the_o apostle_n do_v interpret_v of_o send_v the_o gospel_n unto_o any_o place_n so_o that_o where_o the_o gospel_n come_v it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o a_o thing_n that_o come_v mere_o by_o accident_n or_o by_o a_o ordinary_a providence_n of_o god_n as_o other_o thing_n but_o it_o be_v that_o that_o come_v unto_o a_o place_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o prayer_n of_o jesus_n christ_n of_o the_o intercession_n of_o jesus_n christ_n unto_o the_o father_n for_o that_o particular_a place_n or_o town_n or_o parish_n and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n leave_v some_o place_n destitute_a of_o help_n in_o ignorance_n and_o darkness_n that_o they_o scarce_o ever_o come_v to_o hear_v of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o other_o that_o it_o may_v be_v be_v in_o themselves_o as_o unworthy_a as_o the_o other_o they_o come_v to_o have_v the_o great_a thing_n of_o the_o gospel_n open_v to_o they_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o difference_n be_v jesus_n christ_n have_v intercee_v before_o the_o father_n for_o the_o one_o and_o not_o for_o the_o other_o and_o one_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o prayer_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o other_o christ_n have_v

gospel_n come_v to_o a_o place_n there_o be_v hope_n of_o good_a because_o that_o the_o gospel_n have_v in_o itself_o so_o much_o power_n i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o only_o as_o a_o ordinance_n to_o convey_v the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o though_o man_n word_n and_o ministry_n have_v little_a in_o it_o yet_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n they_o have_v in_o they_o a_o mighty_a strength_n there_o be_v such_o wonderful_a thing_n that_o the_o gospel_n do_v reveal_v wheresoever_o it_o come_v that_o one_o will_v wonder_v that_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o people_n shall_v not_o be_v take_v with_o it_o yea_o there_o be_v such_o thing_n that_o be_v make_v know_v in_o the_o gospel_n that_o one_o will_v think_v may_v break_v the_o heart_n of_o any_o devil_n in_o hell_n that_o if_o god_n shall_v send_v the_o gospel_n unto_o the_o devil_n if_o they_o be_v not_o go_v irrecoverable_o one_o will_v think_v that_o what_o be_v make_v know_v in_o the_o gospel_n may_v break_v the_o heart_n of_o a_o devil_n o_o that_o god_n shall_v be_v reconcile_v to_o man_n to_o send_v his_o own_o son_n to_o die_v for_o base_a worm_n upon_o who_o the_o lord_n may_v have_v glorify_v his_o infinite_a justice_n upon_o to_o all_o eternity_n there_o be_v that_o in_o the_o gospel_n that_o it_o be_v to_o admiration_n that_o all_o people_n do_v not_o come_v in_o unto_o it_o what_o do_v christ_n say_v if_o the_o son_n of_o peace_n it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o all_o do_v not_o come_v in_o to_o embrace_v the_o bless_a gospel_n the_o patience_n of_o god_n do_v lead_n to_o repentance_n then_o what_o may_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n do_v that_o be_v hold_v out_o in_o the_o gospel_n the_o lord_n do_v reveal_v such_o argument_n to_o draw_v people_n that_o to_o speak_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n
