which was established upon better promises A better Covenant and stablished upon better promises or a better Testament Their promises I say were but low and mean and our promises are high and precious and we have a better Covenant a Covenant not of living in the Land of Canaan but of Heaven of which that Canaan was but a Type and therefore our Conversations should rise higher in holiness according as our Covenant and Promises are better than theirs Secondly Our Worship is more spiritual than their worship was As that known place in Joh. 4. 23. where Christ saith to the woman of Samaria You serve God in this place But the time shall come that they shall serve him every where for God is a Spirit and will be worshiped in spirit and in truth There is more spiritual worship in the time of the Gospel than was in the time of the Law The Lord carried them on in a carnal and a sensitive way and indeed this hath been a great design of Antichrist to bring men to a carnal way of worship To carnal Ordinances for so they are called in Scripture the Commandements of God by Moses are called carnal Heb. 9. 10. For their worship was in comparison of the worship in the Gospel but carnal I say it hath bin the design of Antichrist to darken the glory of Jesus Christ in the Gospel by bringing the Church to a carnal way of worship and to take away spiritual and therefore they are altogether about carnal Institutions whereas Jesus Christ hath instituted but only two Sacraments wherein there are outward carnal things wherein we worship God through the Creature otherwise His worship is altogether spiritual but now Antichrist he would bring in altogether carnal things he would ad a hundred inventions of his own as building sumptuous Temples railing in of the Communion Tables and then turning them into Altars with such kind of apish gestures foolish garments and Heathenish musick all which was carnal worship the devices of men to please children and fools with exceedingly much against the very life and soul of Godliness and the only rule of worship in the Word of God Besides this rediculous and carnal way of worship made the worshipers twofold more the children of Satan than they were before But now the more spiritual any worship of God is the more spiritual it makes the heart the lesse we stick to the creature while we are worshipping of God the more communion we come to have with Christ and so it doth raise holinesse to a more higher pitch Thirdly Vnder the Gospel our yoke is more easie You know what Christ saith in a Scripture that I have opened to you at large Come take my yoke upon you for my yoke is easie and my burden is light You are delivered from that heavy burden that they were under and therefore you should run the waies of Gods Commandements and follow after holiness more readily and freely than they could do Fourthly We have access with boldness to the Throne of grace as the Scripture speaks God doth not reveal Himself in that terrible way to his Saints now as in the time of the Law but would have them come with boldness and have libertie of speech for that 's the word as in the second of the Ephesians of the boldness that we have to come into the presence of God Through him we have access by one spirit unto the Father Access the word signifies a coming with freedom as it were being led by the hand of God In Ephes 3. 12. In whom we have boldness and access saith the text there with confidence by the faith of Him Three words here are together We have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of Him The word that is here translated Boldness it is liberty of speech we may come and speak our minds and unbosome our speech freely to God without any such terror and we may come to God without desiring Moses must go into Gods presence for them as he did Oh they durst not go themselves but Moses must go and speak with God We may come into the presence of God and speak our hearts freely with a holy boldness in the Name of Christ Fifthly We have the spirit of adoption more than they Rom. 8. We have not received the spirit of bondage to fear again but the spirit of adoption whereby we cry Abba Father There was a spirit of bondage under which even the people of God were in former times and now the spirit of adoption is more spread abroad and cōmunicated in the world to the Churches than it was before and therefore the Lord expects a Conversation sutable to the spirit of adoption As now take one that is a child and hath a servile spirit and is afraid to come into the presence of his father it may be he will do some works in obedience to his father but in a heavy dull way but afterwards when his father is fully reconcil'd to him comes speaks kindly to him there comes a spirit of adoption upon the child Oh then he goes lively on in duty to his father then he rejoyces in the presence of his father to do any thing that may please his father when he is acted by a spirit of adoptiō there 's more service done according to the mind wil of Christ than there was before So my Brethren we should exceed all under the Law with a more fillial obedience than ever there was in that time or else our Conversation it is not such as becomes the Gospel Therefore when you open the old Testament and reade of those excellent gracious spirits that were there especially in the Psalms what holy breathings and pantings after God there are and in the Prophets what exemplary holiness then liv'd and shined in the world Be ashamed of your selves if you do not rise to as high a degree as they and higher too Obj. Why you will say But they were eminent men they were the Prophets of God and so were extraordinary and can ordinary Christians rise as high as they did and be such burning and shining lamps as they were Ans I 'le give you one Scripture about that in Zach. 12. 8. it is a cleer Prophesie of the times of the Gospel In that day shall the Lord defend the Inhabitants of Jerusalem and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David and the house of David shall be as God as the Angel of the Lord before them Mark he that is feeble among them shall be as David who was a man according to Gods own heart Oh reade Davids Psalms particularly the 119. Psalm and see the holy breathings of David and observe that there is a Prophesie that those that are feeble shall be as David and those that are as David that is the eminent Christians the Lords Champions and the house of David shall be as God as the Angels of the Lord.
be joy there they would account it acceptable news indeed Now then Those that do beleeve this Gospel or do profess it that they have entertain'd this Gospel this glad Tydings they must be careful to walk in their Conversation so as it becomes this Gospel as becomes such glorious glad Tydings as are sent unto them from Heaven As becomes The word signifies Worthy of the Gospel that that is translated in your books become it signifies worthy of the Gospel But this cannot be meant as if so be that our Conversation should be such as deserves al the good that there is in the Gospel No but Worthy that is as much as Beseeming the Gospel as meet for the Gospel or as it is translated in your books Becoming the Gospel as he that eats and drinks unworthily eats and drinks his own damnation Can one eat and drink so as to be worthy of the Body and Blood of Christ No but he that eats and drinks so carries himself so in that Ordinance of the Sacrament as is unbeseeming the Body and Blood of Christ that he comes to receive and on the other side those that do eat and drink so as to sanctifie Gods Name in that Ordinance as you have heard they do it worthily for so the same word is here Worthy of the Gospel of Christ And so bring forth fruit worthy of repentance saith John to those that came to him that is meet sit for repentance such fruit as may manifest your repentance as is sutable unto such men or women that do profess their repentance for their sins Further I find that the word that is here translated Becoming in another place is translated Convenient and meet and can be understood in no other sense as in 1 Cor. 16. 4. If it be meet that I shall go also the word that is translated there meet it is in the Greek worthy the same word that we have here translated Becoming if it be a comly thing or a meet or convenient thing then I 'le go so then it 's cleer that this word that we have here is meet convenient sutable or becoming the Gospel Let your Conversation be such as it meet for or becoming the Gospel You will say What Conversation is that which is meet for or becoming the Gospel To that I answer First a Conversation raised to a higher degree than the light of Nature or than the Law can raise one to it must be that certainly it is not a Conversation becoming the Gospel except it be a Conversation raised higher than the light of Nature or than the Law can raise one to it becomes not the Gospel else Secondly A Conversation sutable and answerable to those many blessed and glorious truths that are revealed in the Gospel there is much of the mind of God revealed in the Gospel glorious truths are there presented to us that is a Conversation becoming the Gospel that is sutable and answerable unto these blessed and glorious truths that are revealed in the Gospel Thirdly A Conversation manifesting the power of the Gospel Fourthly A Conversation that is sutable unto al the Ordinances of the Gospel agreeable unto whatsoever there is in any Ordinance of the Gospel And then fiftly A Conversation holding forth the beauty excellency and glory of the Gospel before those with whom we do converse here 's a Conversation becoming the Gospel when those that are Christians professing that the Lord hath revealed the Gospel unto them and that in some measure they have been brought to beleeve in the Gospel when as now their Conversation is beyond that which any man can attain unto by the light of Nature when it is beyond that that any man by the Law can be raised unto when it 's answerable to the many blessed and glorious truths that are revealed in the Gospel when it manifests a power of the Gospel in him when it 's answerable unto the blessed Ordinances that he doth enjoy in the Gospel and when his Life and Conversation holds forth the beauty excellency and glory of the Gospel before the world here is a Conversation becoming the Gospel and this is that which the Apostle here exhorts unto Only let your Conversation be such as becomes the Gospel of Christ Thus you have had the words opened Now for the Doctrinal Points in the words only these two the first is but to make way to the second 1. Doct. The first is this That those that profess the Gospel must have a great care of their Conversations 2. Secondly This Conversation of theirs must be such as becomes as beseems the Gospel These are the two main Points in the Text. I shall this morning but make way to the second Point which is the great Point in the Text. First That Christians that do profess the Gospel must have a great care of their Conversations to look to them They must not satisfie themselves with what is inward in their minds or in their affections but look to their Conversations You think or hope at least that through the Gospel there hath been conversion wrought in you After the Lord hath wrought conversion he doth expect that you be careful of your Conversations before men you have knowledge you can speak well you have some stirrings of heart that you have felt in hearing of the Word preaching of the Gospel but now look to your Conversations and know there is a bond laid upon you more than ever was to look to your Conversations in James 3. see the exhortation of the Apostle there at the 13. verse Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among yeu mark let him shew out of a good Conversation his works with meekness of wisdom It is a very sweet and excellent Scripture Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you What should he do Let him shew out of a good Conversation his works with meekness of wisdom here is wise and knowledge and wisdom again If you would manifest that God hath wrought any true saving knowledge any wisdom in you to save your souls why know that God requires that you should show your good Conversation that with meekness and wisdom your Conversations you must have a care of them both in respect of men and in respect of God In respect of men 1 Pet. 2. 12. Having your Conversation honest among the Gentils And the latter part wee shall speak to by and by so that Christians they must look to their Conversations in respect of men And then in respect of God In 1 Pet. 1. 15. But as be who hath called you is Holy so be ye holy in all manner of Conversation There you have Honest Conversation and in this scripture holy in all manner of conversation so that you are to have regard to your Conversations both in respect of men and in respect of God and upon these grounds First in general First in regard of God more generally that God may be
make manie men even carnal men themselves plead for libertie of conscience so far as things be not destructive to godliness or the Kingdom for such men they will say were they all such men as these men are they might verie wel be born withal for they differ in nothing but that conscience puts them upon say they for we find them in all their waies square and just they walk conscionablie Therefore be careful of your Conversations because in some things you cannot but do that which will displease wicked men 4. Arg. Fourthlie Consider that your lives are but short within a while you must have your Conversations either among Devils or Angels one of the two and how soon it may be only God knows Now then I would appeal and put this to your consciences Are your Conversations now such as can give you comfort Oh I hope within a while I shall have my Conversation among Angels I desire now that the will of God may be done in earth as it is in heaven and that my familie and life were as it were a heaven I would fain have my Conversation in heaven now and this gives me some good hope that my Conversation shall be with Angels within a while But on the other side Will not mens consciences mis-give them if you would make a judgment of what your Conversation shall be within a while by that they are now are not the Conversations of many of you in your families and when you come in some companie more like to those that are appointed to have their Conversation among Devils Why what 's done among Devils there 's hatred Religion and of God and of his Saints there 's railing and blaspheming the Devils they accuse the Brethren and blaspheme the Name of God And what is your Conversation otherwise than theirs Know that your Conversation is such as is an evident fore-runner that if you continue as now you are that within a while your Conversation will be among Devils for that 's the most sutable to you And my Brethren consider further The eyes of the world yea the eyes of God and of Christ and the Angels are upon you to see how grace acts in your Conversations the eyes of the world are upon you watching for your halting and rejoycing remember but this that your Conversations are not onlie before men but the eyes of God and Christ and His holy Angels they look upon you where ever you are when you are in your familie there God Christ and His holie Angels stand looking upon you to see what your Conversation is with your wife husband children servants when you come into companie there the Lord God and Jesus Christ and Angels stand looking upon you and therfore look to your Conversations And besides The eyes of wicked men are upon you they watch for your haulting and they would rejoice to see any thing that they might have against you That place that we had before in 1 Pet. 2. 12. where the Holie Ghost saith That whereas they speak against you as evil doers they may by your good works which they shall behold glorifie God in the day of visitation The word is thus that is Beholding with a narrow circumspection it is not onlie seeing but with a narrow circumspection Oh! it 's an excellent thing that when wicked men bend their eyes and look narrowlie upon the Saints and would be glad and rejoice if they could find them halting yet that they are able to find nothing As it was said of Christ the Pharisees sent to watch Him but they could find nothing amiss in Him And so though others should be sent on purpose to watch your lives yet your lives should be so exact that they might find nothing amisse in you And I conclude all with that excellent promise that we have to such as are careful of their Conversations In Psalm 50. 23. These times you all crie out of as dangerous times Mark that one Scripture will help you that are careful of your Conversations against the danger of the times wherein we live Who se offereth praise glorifieth me and to him that ordereth his Conversation aright will I shew the Salvation of God These are times that you are called upon for praises and thanksgiving for mercies we are bound to do that but mark Do not put off God with a verbal praise it 's true he that offereth praise honoreth me but yet together there must be an ordering of our Conversations and to him that ordereth his Conversation aright will I shesh the Salvation of God This is that which is required of Christians to order their Conversations aright Oh! it 's an excellent thing to see the Conversations of Christians in due order all guided with Spiritual wisdom and holiness Oh that man or woman that is careful to order their Conversations aright here is a promise to them That the Lord will shew them his Salvation What ever times thou livest in though never so dangerous though God apear never so dreadful in the times wherein thou livest yet if thou canst have but this testimonie of thy conscience Lord thou knowest it is the care of my soul not only to make profession of Religion but to order my Conversation aright therefore Lord save me in evil times Lord shew me thy salvation thou maiest take this promise and lay it to thy heart and comfort thy heart with it thou maiest plead it with God in prayer Oh make it to be a matter of thy prayer to God In these evil times that the Lord would shew His Salvation to thee because He hath put it into thy heart through His Grace to order thy Conversation aright SERMON II. PHIL. 1. 27. Only let your Conversation be as becomes the Gospel of Christ WEE concluded the last day with an exhortation to Christians Do you hope that God hath wrought the work of Convertion Be you careful of your Conversation And many motives there were to stir up Christians to be careful of their Conversations I shall not look back but proceed only give unto you some few Rules that I desire to add unto the Motives and then we shall come unto the Second point Look to your Conversations and especially observe these Rules 1. Rule First If you be convinced that it ought to be your care to look to your Conversation then have a special regard to the duties of your Relations The work of Grace in mens Conversations doth appear much in the duties of their Relations as children towards their parents parents towards their children servants towards their masters masters towards their servants husbands towards wives wives towards husbands the younger towards the elder the elder towards the younger if you stand in a private or publick place Majestrates or Subjects if you profess godliness manifest in your Conversations in performing the duties of your relations what soever men may talk of godlines except it appear in their relations except a servant be a
and to live to themselves and out of their Apprentiships then their lives are after another manner than when they were little children in their non-age now they come to have stocks in their hands to trade for themselves and not to be any more as servants a child before he comes of age is under Tutors and Governors in the family but when he comes to yeers of discretion then he lives like a man and commands rather in the family and is serviceable to none but his father and mother So we should live as becomes children of age that is manifesting in our Conversations a staiedness wisdom and gravity and now to live more above the things of this world than before we did as children of age And for the union we have with God that is That the Saints now are made one with God and with Christ his Son In 1 Cor. 6. 17. He that is joyned to the Lord is one Spirit It 's a very strange expression we are one Spirit with God and with Jesus Christ O what Conversation becomes this that we should be principled and acted with the same Spirit surely such a one as must manifest that we are crowned graced with the same Spirit that is Gods Spirit and the Spirit of Jesus Christ his Son now surely that must needs be a very holy spiritual Conversation 1 Cor. 3. 16. Yea the Spirit of God dwelleth in you saith the text and 2 Cor. 6. 16 I will dwell in them and walk in them and I will be their God and they shall be my People See the neer union that we have with God that the Gospel holds forth to us Yea and there is another phrase which is very remarkable That as the Spirit of God is in Beleevers so Beleevers are in the Spirit Gal. 5. 25. If we live in the Spirit let us also walk in the Spirit saith the text The Spirit lives in us and we live in the Spirit what Conversation must there needs be here then Oh let us walk not in a fleshly way to satisfie the lusts of the flesh but in the Spirit the fruits that do become the Spirit of God You shall see them in this 5. of Gal. 22. vers c. But the fruit of the Spirit is love joy peace long-suffering gentleness goodness faith meekness temperance against such there is no Law And they that are Christs have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts of it If we walk in the Spirit then here 's the fruit of the Spirit Would you have your Conversations such as becomes the Gospel then mark but these three phrases 1. The Spirit of God is in you in a constant way taking up his habitation and residence in your bosoms 2. You live in the very Spirit as in the proper element of a Christian 3. You are one Spirit with God Put these three and Oh now how unbeseeming to these three expressions that we have in the Gospel and no where else is it for professors of the Gospel so satisfie the lusts of the flesh Oh how unsutable are fleshly lusts to a spiritual man Oh take heed of this for ever you that make profession of the Gospel do not wallow in the mire of uncleanness do not give liberty to the lusts of the flesh but mortifie the lusts of the flesh and the deeds thereof for you are joyned so neer to God himself ye live in God too Col. 3. 3. Your life is hid with Christ in God It 's a very transcendent phrase that the Saints do live in God you do not only live in the aire and breath in the aire but while you live here in the world you live in God Oh the wonderful mystery of the Gospel and the high things that are held forth in the Gospel That Gods Spirit is in us and we are in the Spirit and we are the same Spirit with God yea and we live in God Oh then what a Conversation should be sutable to these things seeing these things are thus what manner of persons ought we to be Yea and there is another expression and that 's more full than any of these and that 's in the prayer of Christ in the 17. of John 21. That they all may be one as Thou Father art in Me and I in Thee that they also may be one in Vs The Gospel discovers this union for the Saints to be one with the Father and Son as the Father and Son are one now those that are joyned so neer to God their Conversations had need be holy and blameless witnessing the glory of that God that they are so neer related to I remember in handling of that point in drawing nigh to God in his Worship There we shewed what holiness is required in those that are so nigh to God but those that are one with God and in God Oh how much of God of Jesus Christ should shine forth by their lives in the faces of others Reade these scriptures and by faith make them real to your souls and then let your consciences tell you what Conversations is required of you If you be a Beleever this is so Charge your souls with this when any temptation to evil comes What is it fit for such a one as I to live thus who have the Spirit of God dwelling in me yea and I dwelling in the Spirit of God and joyned so as to be one spirit with God yea and to live in God and to be one with God as the Father and the Son is one and is this conversation such as beseems one that is raised to such a height of honor as this is Christians remember this it wil be a mighty help to your holy Conversations to put you on to shine before men in a holy Conversation to walk in the Spirit considering the near union we have with God we should never have known these things had we not had them revealed to us by the Gospel Oh this glorious Gospel that hath revealed such glorious things to us as this is And then Our relation and our union with Jesus Christ You know the Scripture makes Christ sometimes to be the Root and we the Branches therefore we are to bring forth fruit seeing that we are Branches in Him that is the Root Bring forth fruit sutable to the Sap. You that bring forth sowr grapes grapes of Gomorrah that have bitter tart spirits and live in any wicked and sinful way Is this the Sap that is sutable to the Root You are graffed into Jesus Christ and not into a Crab-stock And do you receive this Sap from the Root Oh you are a dishonor to the Root you grow upon I am the true Vine saith Christ and every Branch in me beareth fruit and my Father purgeth it that it may bring forth more fruit Christians should so live in their Conversations as to manifest the fulness of the sap and juyce that there is in the Root the Lord Jesus Christ it 's not
2. may prove to be your portion it is spoken of Doeg This is the man saith the Psalmist that did not make God his trust but trusted in his great riches this is the man So you may be pointed out one day This is the man Doeg was a great Courtier and because he was an Officer of King Sauls and because he had his favour he trusted in the favour of the King and in his riches and what did he care for David Yea by the Text it appears he was one that made some shew of Religion too in the 1 of Sam. 21. 7. He was detained before the Lord Tremelius thinks either out of some Religious vow or to keep the Sabbath or somewhat concerning the Law he was detained before the Lord and yet he was a vile Malignant against David and all because he trusted in the great countenance he had at Court Now this is the man that made not God his trust but that trusted in his great riches the Lord forbid this Scripture should be made true of any of you I leave this Text with you that are rich men take heed you trust not in your great riches I leave this Text with you that are in places of dignity and honor take heed you have not your portion in this world I leave this Text to Voluptuous men given up to pleasures take heed you hear not one day this Son remember in thy life-time thou hadst thy pleasure I leave this with those that dare not trust God for a portion to come And above all I leave this with all Hypocrites let them take heed it be not said to them Here is your reward Consider what hath been said and the Lord give you understanding in all things FINIS THE ALPHABETICAL TABLE A ABuse see Body Adam First Adam what he was and what he should have been had he stood Page 43 The state of Adam compared with the state of the Saints 44 Admiration Admiration of Saints and Angels 90 Adrian Adrian the Pope his wofull death 339 Alexanders rebuke 349 Angels Angels are the Saints keepers 155 Angels see Love Honor Anger Anger must be avoided 38 Arbitrary Arbitrary Government and the differences of it 324 Antichrist Antichrists great design 49 Argument see Gospel B Beginning Beginings of sin to be feared 83 Beleevers Beleevers draw strength from Christ 45 Beleevers should manifest Christ in their actions Ibid Beleevers cannot fall away 46 Beleevers are not without mixture of evil ib.
