upon_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o poor_a sinner_n second_o the_o frame_n and_o disposition_n that_o god_n work_v upon_o the_o soul_n in_o convert_v it_o to_o himself_o upon_o these_o two_o hang_v the_o

be_v the_o lord_n he_o that_o do_v receive_v the_o work_n and_o be_v prepare_v be_v the_o soul_n of_o those_o who_o god_n have_v elect_v to_o salvation_n so_o that_o as_o i_o say_v before_o something_o on_o god_n part_n must_v be_v observe_v something_o on_o man_n part_n must_v be_v consider_v on_o god_n part_n the_o dispensation_n of_o his_o work_n and_o on_o man_n part_n the_o disposition_n that_o be_v wrought_v in_o the_o soul_n i_o come_v ●o_o the_o first_o thing_n which_o be_v the_o main_a thing_n to_o be_v 〈◊〉_d out_o of_o the_o text_n namely_o the_o manner_n 〈◊〉_d god_n work_v upon_o the_o soul_n when_o he_o prepare_v 〈…〉_o himself_o and_o this_o discover_v itself_o in_o two_o particular_n we_o will_v handle_v they_o both_o together_o 〈◊〉_d god_n do_v pluck_v a_o poor_a sinner_n from_o his_o corruption_n and_o darling_n sin_n to_o which_o he_o be_v glue_v and_o fasten_v and_o second_o as_o he_o draw_v the_o soul_n from_o sin_n so_o he_o draw_v it_o to_o himself_o to_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o to_o receive_v mercy_n from_o he_o first_o god_n pluck_v the_o soul_n from_o sin_n second_o he_o draw_v it_o to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o for_o this_o purpose_n we_o have_v choose_v this_o text_n that_o so_o we_o may_v have_v some_o foot_n for_o that_o which_o we_o speak_v out_o of_o scripture_n and_o my_o purpose_n be_v not_o to_o handle_v all_o particular_n in_o the_o text_n which_o be_v many_o but_o to_o choose_v those_o that_o do_v concern_v our_o present_a purpose_n and_o best_a fit_v we_o in_o our_o proceed_n and_o the_o two_o main_a point_n which_o i_o mean_v to_o discover_v out_o of_o the_o text_n be_v these_o first_o that_o every_o man_n in_o his_o natural_a condition_n be_v fasten_v and_o settle_v in_o the_o state_n of_o sin_n and_o corruption_n second_o that_o the_o lord_n by_o a_o holy_a kind_n of_o violence_n pluck_v off_o the_o soul_n from_o sin_n and_o draw_v it_o to_o himself_o these_o be_v the_o two_o thing_n which_o in_o the_o text_n i_o aim_v at_o but_o the_o second_o be_v the_o main_a thing_n i_o look_v at_o &_o we_o must_v handle_v they_o both_o because_o the_o draw_n of_o a_o thing_n from_o another_o impli_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v draw_v be_v fasten_v to_o some_o thing_n from_o whence_o it_o be_v to_o be_v draw_v and_o therefore_o when_o the_o lord_n say_v he_o will_v draw_v a_o poor_a sinner_n to_o himself_o it_o imply_v that_o we_o be_v stick_v fast_o and_o glue_v to_o our_o corruption_n from_o whence_o we_o must_v be_v draw_v and_o when_o this_o be_v once_o do_v than_o the_o face_n be_v towards_o heaven_n towards_o zion_n than_o it_o be_v fit_v to_o receive_v mercy_n from_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o because_o this_o draw_n unto_o god_n do_v imply_v a_o fasten_n of_o the_o soul_n unto_o sin_n from_o whence_o it_o must_v be_v draw_v the_o point_n therefore_o be_v this_o namely_o that_o every_o man_n natural_a estate_n and_o condition_n be_v fasten_v and_o settle_v and_o rivet_v to_o his_o sin_n and_o corruption_n a_o poor_a creature_n by_o nature_n be_v not_o only_o ingraft_v into_o sin_n but_o he_o be_v root_v into_o the_o rebellion_n of_o adam_n and_o be_v grow_v strong_a with_o sinful_a corruption_n and_o distemper_n of_o his_o own_o soul_n nay_o a_o man_n be_v not_o able_a to_o express_v the_o strong_a combination_n between_o sin_n and_o the_o soul_n it_o be_v screw_v into_o sin_n and_o rivet_v into_o corruption_n which_o have_v be_v convey_v thereunto_o and_o derive_v from_o our_o first_o parent_n and_o that_o the_o so●●le_n be_v thus_o fasten_v and_o settle_v and_o glue_v to_o sin_n we_o may_v observe_v it_o in_o two_o particular_n partly_o in_o the_o dominion_n that_o sin_n and_o satan_n have_v over_o the_o soul_n partly_o in_o the_o amity_n that_o the_o soul_n have_v to_o sin_n first_o then_o consider_v the_o dominion_n that_o sin_n have_v over_o the_o soul_n that_o sovereign_a and_o uncontrollable_a command_n which_o sin_n exercise_v over_o the_o soul_n of_o every_o poor_a creature_n under_o heaven_n which_o be_v in_o a_o natural_a estate_n in_o the_o bond_n of_o iniquity_n and_o under_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n and_o we_o shall_v see_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v fasten_v to_o sin_n act_v 26.18_o the_o text_n say_v that_o they_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n to_o open_v their_o eye_n say_v the_o text_n that_o they_o may_v turn_v from_o darkness_n to_o light_n and_o from_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n to_o god_n if_o you_o ask_v i_o how_o the_o devil_n have_v power_n over_o poor_a sinner_n the_o apostle_n tell_v you_o that_o he_o catch_v they_o at_o his_o pleasure_n the_o proud_a man_n must_v go_v no_o further_o than_o he_o will_v and_o the_o covetous_a man_n must_v do_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o he_o listen_v but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o neither_o though_o this_o be_v sufficient_a to_o discover_v the_o power_n that_o satan_n have_v over_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o sinner_n but_o when_o he_o
