of_o promise_n o_o my_o lord_n my_o goodness_n be_v no●_n for_o thou_o but_o for_o the_o saint_n that_o be_v in_o the_o earth_n an●_n the_o excellent_a in_o who_o be_v all_o my_o delight_n and_o so_o ou●_n saviour_n christ_n promise_v to_o the_o father_n in_o the_o 17._o o●_n john_n therefore_o do_v i_o sanctify_v myself_o that_o the●_n also_o may_v be_v sanctify_v and_o if_o you_o look_v into_o the_o hebrew_n you_o shall_v find_v that_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o surety_n of_o the_o covenant_n why_o because_o he_o do_v engage_v for_o god_n the_o father_n to_o perform_v to_o we_o and_o he_o do_v engage_v for_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v perform_v to_o god_n so_o that_o do_v you_o ask_v what_o the_o covenant_n be_v plain_o than_o it_o be_v that_o mutual_a agreement_n between_o god_n an●_n man_n whereby_o god_n the_o father_n do_v engage_v himself_o to_o show_v kindness_n love_n and_o mercy_n to_o christ_n and_o his_o seed_n christ_n engage_v both_o for_o himself_o and_o for_o his_o seed_n to_o be_v obedient_a unto_o god_n the_o father_n 2._o but_o than_o second_o why_o be_v this_o covenant_n call_v a_o new_a covenant_n not_o only_o because_o it_o be_v a_o excellent_a covenant_n as_o in_o scripture_n phrase_n excellent_a thing_n be_v call_v new_a a_o new_a song_n etc._n etc._n nor_o only_o because_o it_o bring_v a_o new_a heart_n which_o be_v promise_v in_o the_o covenant_n nor_o only_o because_o it_o be_v always_o fresh_a and_o green_a and_o new_a upon_o which_o account_n austin_n think_v that_o the_o commandment_n of_o love_n be_v call_v a_o new_a commandment_n nor_o be_v it_o call_v new_a only_o because_o there_o be_v no_o other_o covenant_n to_o succeed_v and_o follow_v which_o be_v the_o reason_n in_o the_o 8_o of_o heb._n but_o it_o be_v call_v a_o new_a covenant_n in_o opposition_n to_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v make_v with_o adam_n and_o with_o we_o in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n and_o in_o opposition_n to_o the_o covenant_n which_o be_v make_v with_o the_o jew_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n first_o new_a in_o opposition_n to_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v make_v with_o adam_n in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n for_o then_o though_o god_n out_o of_o free_a love_n and_o grace_n be_v please_v to_o condescend_v to_o enter_v into_o covenant_n with_o man_n yet_o than_o god_n do_v deal_v with_o we_o in_o a_o way_n of_o supremacy_n and_o of_o righteousness_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v mention_v make_v only_o of_o the_o threaten_v in_o the_o day_n that_o thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v die_v the_o death_n but_o now_o god_n deal_v with_o we_o in_o this_o covenant_n in_o a_o way_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o great_a compassion_n and_o therefore_o in_o this_o covenant_n there_o be_v mention_v make_v only_o of_o the_o promise_n again_o 2._o though_o god_n do_v enter_v into_o covenant_n with_o adam_n and_o so_o with_o we_o and_o promise_v eternal_a life_n in_o heaven_n not_o eternal_a life_n in_o this_o world_n only_o as_o some_o will_v for_o hell_n be_v threaten_v in_o these_o word_n in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v die_v the_o death_n and_o therefore_o heaven_n and_o salvation_n be_v promise_v on_o the_o contrary_a yet_o i_o say_v although_o god_n when_o he_o enter_v into_o covenant_n with_o we_o then_o do_v promise_v heaven_n and_o salvation_n it_o be_v upon_o condition_n of_o our_o personal_a and_o perfect_a obedience_n and_o therefore_o call_v a_o covenant_n of_o work_n but_o now_o our_o covenant_n run_v upon_o no_o such_o term_n 3._o then_o in_o that_o covenant_n acceptation_n begin_v in_o the_o work_n and_o so_o to_o the_o person_n and_o therefore_o say_v the_o lord_n to_o cain_n if_o thou_o do_v well_o shall_v thou_o not_o be_v accept_v speak_v to_o he_o as_o belong_v to_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n but_o in_o the_o covenant_n now_o make_v the_o acceptation_n begin_v in_o the_o person_n and_o so_o to_o the_o work_n and_o therefore_o say_v the_o lord_n concern_v abel_n the_o lord_n accept_v abel_n his_o person_n and_o then_o his_o sacrifice_n 4._o then_o also_o the_o lord_n give_v adam_n and_o we_o an●_n ability_n to_o stand_v but_o he_o do_v not_o give_v a_o promise_n of_o perseverance_n in_o stand_v but_o now_o the_o lord_n do_v i_o will_v put_v my_o fear_n into_o your_o heart_n that_o you_o shall_v not_o depart_v from_o i_o say_v the_o lord_n 5._o then_o in_o that_o covenant_n there_o be_v no_o room_n for_o repentance_n no_o room_n for_o remission_n but_o as_o in_o a_o court_n of_o mere_a justice_n the_o question_n be_v not_o whether_o a_o man_n do_v repent_v of_o his_o fact_n or_o no_o but_o whither_o i_o or_o no_o have_v such_o a_o fact_n be_v do_v so_o by_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n the_o first_o covenant_n there_o be_v no_o question_n whether_o a_o man_n do_v repent_v or_o no_o but_o whether_o the_o work_n be_v do_v whether_o the_o sin_n be_v do_v but_o now_o in_o this_o covenant_n there_o be_v room_n both_o for_o repentance_n and_o for_o remission_n as_o by_o and_o by_o you_o shall_v hear_v and_o then_o 6._o though_o when_o god_n make_v that_o covenant_n with_o adam_n and_o with_o we_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n may_v be_v some_o shadow_n of_o christ_n yet_o then_o there_o be_v no_o mediator_n for_o there_o be_v no_o need_n god_n and_o man_n be_v not_o at_o variance_n and_o so_o no_o need_n of_o a_o mediator_n but_o in_o this_o covenant_n that_o be_v now_o strike_v there_o be_v a_o mediator_n a_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n so_o that_o thus_o you_o see_v this_o covenant_n be_v new_a in_o opposition_n to_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v make_v with_o adam_n and_o we_o in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n and_o second_o as_o it_o be_v new_a in_o opposition_n to_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v make_v with_o adam_n the_o covenant_n of_o work_n so_o it_o be_v new_a also_o in_o opposition_n to_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v make_v with_o the_o jew_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n for_o the_o clear_n of_o this_o first_o of_o all_o we_o must_v inquire_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o difference_n between_o the_o covenant_n make_v with_o the_o jew_n in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o the_o covenant_n make_v with_o we_o now_o and_o in_o case_n there_o be_v what_o be_v the_o difference_n and_o wherein_o it_o lie_v and_o first_o if_o you_o ask_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o difference_n if_o i_o shall_v answer_v with_o divine_n ordinary_o wherein_o they_o speak_v the_o truth_n i_o must_v say_v that_o the_o covenant_n which_o god_n make_v with_o the_o jew_n be_v for_o substance_n the_o same_o though_o different_a in_o administration_n but_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o express_v my_o own_o sense_n in_o my_o own_o term_n thus_o 1._o it_o be_v plain_a and_o clear_a that_o the_o jew_n that_o be_v save_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v save_v by_o the_o same_o covenant_n that_o we_o now_o be_v save_v by_o for_o they_o be_v save_v by_o the_o covenant_n that_o god_n make_v with_o abraham_n so_o be_v we_o luke_n 11._o rom._n 4._o gal._n 3._o circumcision_n than_o be_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n and_o what_o be_v circumcision_n but_o a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n the_o ceremony_n type_n and_o sacrifice_n do_v not_o belong_v to_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n they_o be_v type_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v the_o same_o covenant_n for_o it_o be_v a_o covenant_n of_o work_n that_o be_v make_v with_o the_o jew_n god_n shall_v have_v bring_v they_o from_o better_a to_o worse_o for_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v make_v with_o abraham_n but_o though_o the_o law_n be_v add_v after_o the_o promise_n it_o can_v not_o disannul_v the_o promise_n say_v the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 3._o of_o gal._n so_o that_o its_o plain_a and_o clea●_n the_o jew_n that_o be_v then_o save_v be_v save_v by_o th●_n same_o covenant_n that_o we_o now_o be_v but_o 2._o though_o those_o jew_n that_o be_v save_v wer●_n save_v by_o the_o same_o covenant_n that_o we_o now_o be_v save_v by_o yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o covenant_n o●_n work_n be_v declare_v and_o promulge_v among_o th●_n jew_n wherefore_o then_o be_v the_o law_n add_v say_v th●_n apostle_n add_v then_o it_o be_v as_o sarah_n and_o hagar_n make_v type_n of_o the_o two_o testament_n by_o the_o apostle_n be_v at_o once_o in_o abraham_n house_n so_o the_o old_a covenant_n of_o work_n and_o the_o new_a covenant_n of_o grace_n wer●_n at_o once_o in_o the_o jewish_a church_n but_o 3._o though_o both_o these_o covenant_n be_v at_o once_o in_o the_o jewish_a church_n the_o one_o declare_v and_o the_o other_o make_v with_o they_o though_o

child_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o pray_v for_o a_o child_n for_o he_o can_v not_o believe_v that_o he_o shall_v have_v a_o child_n so_o that_o god_n give_v he_o a_o child_n in_o a_o way_n of_o prevent_a mercy_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v in_o answer_n of_o prayer_n too_o so_o here_o in_o the_o text_n thou_o have_v give_v he_o his_o heart_n desire_v and_o have_v not_o withheld_a the_o request_n of_o his_o lip_n for_o thou_o have_v prevent_v he_o with_o the_o blessing_n of_o thy_o goodness_n why_o why_o although_o the_o mercy_n receive_v may_v be_v a_o answer_n of_o prayer_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o body_n of_o it_o yet_o it_o may_v come_v in_o a_o way_n of_o prevent_a love_n as_o to_o the_o moreness_n of_o it_o so_o it_o be_v with_o david_n so_o with_o hezekiah_n and_o so_o with_o zacharias_n that_o be_v a_o four_o thing_n god_n do_v sometime_o prevent_v as_o in_o reference_n to_o our_o prayer_n give_v in_o mercy_n beyond_o all_o our_o prayer_n 5._o and_o then_o five_o as_o god_n do_v prevent_v we_o in_o reference_n to_o our_o prayer_n so_o in_o reference_n to_o our_o believe_a thought_n or_o expectance_n when_o the_o lord_n turn_v the_o captivity_n of_o zion_n we_o be_v like_o they_o that_o dream_v why_o be_v we_o as_o they_o that_o dream_v why_o true_o we_o never_o look_v for_o it_o nor_o expect_v it_o we_o do_v not_o think_v on_o it_o it_o be_v beyond_o all_o our_o expectation_n thus_o god_n do_v prevent_v we_o sometime_o in_o reference_n to_o our_o expectance_n to_o our_o faith_n and_o to_o our_o thought_n 6._o as_o he_o thus_o prevent_v we_o with_o his_o mercy_n in_o reference_n to_o our_o thought_n and_o faith_n and_o expectance_n so_o in_o reference_n to_o his_o own_o promise_n and_o the_o condition_n thereof_o if_o i_o promise_v a_o man_n a_o kindness_n upon_o a_o condition_n and_o do_v that_o kindness_n for_o he_o when_o he_o have_v not_o perform_v the_o condition_n than_o i_o prevent_v he_o with_o kindness_n now_o the_o lord_n have_v promise_v many_o a_o mercy_n upon_o a_o condition_n and_o yet_o give_v the_o mercy_n when_o we_o have_v not_o perform_v the_o condition_n i_o say_v say_v david_n i_o will_v confess_v my_o sin_n and_o thou_o lord_n forgave_v my_o iniquity_n lord_n thou_o have_v make_v a_o promise_n of_o forgiveness_n upon_o condition_n of_o our_o confession_n and_o humiliation_n i_o do_v not_o go_v so_o far_o i_o do_v but_o say_v i_o will_v confess_v my_o sin_n and_o thou_o prevented'_v i_o with_o thy_o forgive_a love_n thus_o now_o you_o see_v how_o and_o in_o what_o respect_v god_n do_v prevent_v we_o with_o his_o mercy_n he_o do_v prevent_v we_o with_o his_o mercy_n in_o reference_n to_o our_o deserve_n in_o reference_n to_o his_o own_o proceed_n of_o common_a providence_n in_o reference_n to_o all_o our_o prayer_n in_o reference_n to_o our_o faith_n and_o expectance_n in_o reference_n to_o our_o preparedness_n and_o in_o reference_n to_o his_o own_o promise_n and_o the_o condition_n thereof_o that_o be_v the_o second_o iii_o well_o but_o then_o three_o what_o be_v those_o choice_a blessing_n wherewith_o god_n will_v prevent_v his_o people_n what_o not_o but_o the_o great_a the_o blessing_n be_v the_o more_o it_o be_v steep_v in_o prevent_v love_n there_o be_v outward_a blessing_n and_o there_o be_v inward_a blessing_n there_o be_v temporal_a blessing_n and_o there_o be_v eternal_a blessing_n now_o though_o the_o prevent_a love_n of_o god_n do_v shine_v forth_o in_o all_o yet_o the_o great_a the_o blessing_n or_o the_o mercy_n be_v the_o more_o it_o be_v irradiate_v with_o the_o

of_o his_o grace_n and_o when_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n in_o reference_n to_o our_o redemption_n to_o take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o do_v but_o see_v what_o a_o pack_n of_o wicked_a

sense_n thereof_o the_o more_o necessary_a and_o useful_a any_o mercy_n be_v the_o more_o we_o be_v engage_v to_o think_v thereon_o some_o mercy_n be_v more_o necessary_a and_o some_o less_o necessary_a those_o mercy_n and_o blessing_n we_o put_v god_n upon_o the_o give_n of_o with_o our_o own_o desire_n we_o may_v suspect_v be_v less_o necessary_a but_o those_o that_o god_n give_v we_o in_o a_o way_n of_o prevent_a love_n we_o may_v think_v they_o most_o necessary_a this_o be_v the_o w●y_n of_o prevent_a love_n sure_o therefore_o we_o be_v engage_v to_o think_v much_o thereon_o thus_o you_o become_v god_n darling_n by_o his_o prevent_a love_n the_o world_n have_v its_o darling_n such_o a_o one_o lie_v long_o in_o bed_n take_v little_a pain_n yet_o the_o world_n flow_v in_o upon_o he_o the_o world_n prevent_v he_o he_o be_v the_o world_n darling_n another_o man_n be_v up_o early_o and_o late_o take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o pain_n and_o yet_o be_v poor_a but_o here_o be_v a_o man_n do_v what_o he_o will_v yet_o he_o grow_v rich_a for_o he_o be_v the_o world_n darling_n so_o now_o you_o have_v blessing_n upon_o blessing_n and_o in_o a_o way_n of_o prevention_n what_o do_v this_o argue_n but_o that_o you_o be_v god_n darling_n and_o will_v you_o not_o think_v much_o of_o this_o o_o think_v much_o thereon_o 2._o if_o you_o have_v taste_v of_o this_o prevent_a love_n and_o mercy_n go_v away_o and_o be_v very_o thankful_a to_o god_n upon_o this_o account_n shall_v david_n be_v thankful_a to_o the_o lord_n for_o prevent_v he_o take_v he_o from_o the_o sheep-fold_n and_o will_v not_o you_o be_v thankful_a for_o prevent_v mercy_n shall_v ruth_n be_v thankful_a to_o boaz_n for_o prevent_v she_o with_o his_o kindness_n spread_v his_o skirt_n over_o she_o and_o will_v not_o you_o be_v thankful_a to_o the_o lord_n for_o his_o prevent_a love_n to_o you_o why_o shall_v you_o not_o all_o say_v with_o david_n here_o he_o have_v prevent_v i_o with_o the_o blessing_n of_o his_o goodness_n indeed_o i_o be_v a_o great_a sinner_n but_o he_o have_v prevent_v i_o with_o his_o justify_n mercy_n and_o i_o be_v a_o wander_a creature_n as_o a_o lose_a sheep_n but_o he_o have_v prevent_v i_o with_o his_o redeem_v mercy_n gpd_v speak_v once_o and_o twice_o unto_o i_o and_o i_o hear_v it_o not_o but_o in_o the_o deep_a sleep_n of_o my_o soul_n than_o do_v he_o open_v my_o ear_n and_o seal_v instruction_n on_o i_o before_o i_o be_v aware_a therefore_o all_o that_o be_v within_o i_o bless_v the_o lord_n o_o you_o that_o be_v thus_o prevent_v bless_v the_o lord_n for_o this_o his_o prevent_a mercy_n his_o sweet_a mercy_n 3._o but_o three_o if_o you_o have_v taste_v of_o god_n prevent_v mercy_n and_o have_v indeed_o be_v prevent_v with_o the_o blessing_n of_o his_o goodness_n even_o your_o very_a prayer_n have_v be_v prevent_v with_o the_o blessing_n of_o his_o goodness_n why_o then_o shall_v you_o not_o be_v early_o up_o and_o soon_o at_o your_o prayer_n that_o if_o it_o may_v be_v you_o may_v prevent_v god_n mercy_n with_o your_o prayer_n as_o god_n have_v prevent_v your_o prayer_n with_o his_o mercy_n when_o a_o master_n come_v into_o the_o chamber_n where_o his_o servant_n lie_v and_o find_v he_o in_o bed_n what_o say_v the_o servant_n if_o he_o be_v ingenious_a this_o my_o master_n come_v into_o my_o bedchamber_n before_o i_o be_v up_o be_v a_o plain_a rebuke_n to_o my_o sloth_n i_o will_v be_v up_o the_o soon_o hereafter_o so_o say_v a_o gracious_a ingenious_a soul_n god_n prevent_v my_o prayer_n with_o his_o mercy_n be_v a_o plain_a rebuke_n to_o my_o prayer_n wherefore_o awake_a prayer_n up_o prayer_n through_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n i_o will_v never_o be_v so_o tardy_a again_o with_o my_o prayer_n and_o duty_n but_o as_o god_n have_v prevent_v my_o prayer_n with_o his_o mercy_n so_o through_o grace_n i_o will_v prevent_v his_o mercy_n with_o my_o prayer_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v 4._o if_o you_o have_v taste_v of_o god_n prevent_v mercy_n and_o god_n have_v indeed_o prevent_v you_o with_o the_o blessing_n of_o his_o goodness_n why_o then_o shall_v you_o not_o all_o labour_n to_o be_v like_a unto_o god_n in_o your_o deal_n with_o man_n prevent_v they_o with_o your_o love_a kindness_n you_o think_v it_o a_o great_a matter_n to_o forgive_v a_o man_n that_o have_v injure_v you_o upon_o acknowledge_v of_o his_o fault_n but_o god_n prevent_v we_o with_o his_o forgiveness_n before_o we_o acknowledge_v and_o be_v humble_v therefore_o why_o shall_v you_o not_o labour_v to_o be_v like_a to_o god_n therein_o if_o a_o man_n have_v do_v you_o a_o wrong_n or_o injury_n do_v not_o stand_v upon_o it_o to_o have_v his_o acknowledgement_n but_o say_v i_o will_v be_v like_a to_o god_n god_n prevent_v i_o with_o his_o love_n before_o my_o acknowledgement_n therefore_o through_o grace_n i_o will_v prevent_v this_o man_n with_o my_o kindness_n before_o his_o acknowledgement_n i_o will_v forgive_v he_o thus_o labour_v to_o be_v like_a unto_o god_n in_o all_o your_o deal_n with_o man_n 5._o but_o five_o and_o last_o if_o you_o have_v taste_v of_o this_o prevent_a love_n and_o god_n have_v indeed_o prevent_v you_o with_o the_o blessing_n of_o his_o goodness_n why_o then_o why_o shall_v you_o not_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n for_o ever_o whatsoever_o your_o condition_n be_v trust_v in_o the_o lord_n and_o believe_v for_o ever_o now_o for_o your_o soul_n for_o your_o body_n some_o there_o be_v that_o doubt_n of_o their_o salvation_n of_o the_o salvation_n of_o their_o soul_n ah_o say_v one_o i_o be_o afraid_a i_o shall_v not_o be_v save_v because_o my_o prayer_n can_v be_v accept_v but_o will_v the_o lord_n be_v find_v of_o those_o that_o seek_v he_o not_o and_o will_v he_o not_o be_v find_v of_o you_o that_o seek_v he_o though_o your_o prayer_n be_v poor_a prayer_n ah_o say_v another_o i_o be_o afraid_a the_o lord_n will_v not_o receive_v i_o when_o i_o come_v to_o he_o he_o will_v not_o receive_v i_o no_o but_o if_o the_o lord_n come_v to_o we_o first_o and_o make_v a_o tender_a and_o offer_v of_o his_o grace_n to_o we_o if_o he_o seek_v we_o will_v he_o not_o receive_v they_o think_v you_o that_o seek_v he_o sure_o he_o will_n some_o there_o be_v that_o doubt_n in_o reference_n to_o their_o outward_a condition_n and_o say_v they_o shall_v want_v provision_n shall_v want_v estate_n to_o maintain_v they_o but_o have_v the_o lord_n prevent_v you_o with_o his_o mercy_n in_o the_o great_a turn_n of_o your_o life_n why_o then_o shall_v you_o not_o

now_o upon_o this_o account_n and_o believe_v believe_v let_v i_o say_v this_o to_o you_o will_v you_o believe_v do_v you_o desire_v to_o believe_v yes_o i_o desire_v to_o believe_v do_v you_o then_o let_v your_o eye_n be_v fix_v upon_o god_n prevent_v love_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o man_n do_v not_o believe_v but_o because_o their_o eye_n be_v fix_v no_o more_o stedy_o upon_o prevent_v

thus_o now_o it_o be_v we_o beg_v and_o we_o beg_v but_o it_o be_v as_o no_o beg_n then_o come_v the_o lord_n and_o prevent_v we_o with_o his_o mercy_n will_v you_o not_o say_v the_o lord_n be_v
