this_o question_n to_o you_o what_o evil_a do_v thou_o find_v in_o i_o that_o thou_o desire_v i_o not_o how_o often_o have_v i_o go_v about_o to_o melt_v thou_o with_o my_o love_n and_o do_v but_o look_v for_o thy_o desire_n of_o i_o and_o can_v not_o so_o much_o as_o obtain_v one_o desire_n from_o thou_o what_o will_v the_o sad_a consequence_n hereof_o be_v but_o this_o christ_n will_v say_v to_o such_o you_o have_v often_o draw_v near_o to_o i_o in_o my_o ordinance_n but_o i_o you_o affect_v not_o the_o devil_n your_o own_o sin_n and_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n have_v oppress_v you_o i_o come_v to_o fave_v you_o and_o have_v give_v you_o the_o mean_n of_o grace_n and_o make_v a_o tender_a of_o my_o willingness_n to_o save_v you_o in_o the_o gospel_n i_o come_v to_o save_v you_o out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o your_o enemy_n but_o you_o have_v forsake_v i_o the_o fountain_n of_o life_n and_o blessedness_n and_o therefore_o now_o what_o have_v you_o to_o do_v to_o take_v my_o word_n within_o your_o mouth_n to_o draw_v near_o to_o i_o when_o your_o heart_n be_v far_o from_o i_o do_v not_o such_o perish_v just_o who_o desire_v not_o to_o be_v save_v be_v any_o pity_n to_o be_v show_v to_o such_o that_o come_v to_o god_n ordinance_n and_o may_v have_v manna_n and_o will_v not_o if_o they_o will_v but_o desire_v after_o after_o it_o they_o may_v have_v it_o if_o such_o be_v starve_v to_o death_n who_o will_v pity_v they_o they_o may_v have_v living-water_n if_o they_o will_v ask_v after_o they_o but_o they_o will_v not_o do_v not_o such_o person_n just_o perish_v in_o their_o sin_n this_o than_o may_v just_o check_v we_o for_o the_o deadness_n of_o our_o desire_n and_o affection_n when_o we_o come_v to_o converse_v with_o christ_n in_o his_o ordidance_n oh_o do_v we_o delight_v ourselves_o in_o holy_a exercise_n and_o holy_a ordinance_n how_o will_v they_o raise_v our_o heart_n our_o desire_n and_o affection_n towards_o they_o this_o be_v one_o end_n why_o god_n have_v ordain_v ordinance_n namely_o to_o be_v as_o so_o many_o step_n by_o which_o our_o affection_n may_v climb_v up_o to_o heaven_n hereby_o our_o heart_n may_v have_v a_o strong_a intercourse_n with_o god_n though_o our_o person_n be_v yet_o so_o far_o asunder_o therefore_o whensoever_o thou_o draw_v near_o to_o god_n in_o any_o public_a or_o secret_a duty_n let_v it_o be_v in_o hope_n to_o get_v near_o to_o god_n ere_o thou_o do_v desist_v and_o when_o you_o go_v to_o read_v and_o hear_v the_o word_n let_v it_o be_v with_o this_o desire_n and_o prayer_n that_o thou_o may_v there_o meet_v with_o something_o that_o may_v raise_v thy_o affection_n near_o to_o god_n and_o give_v thou_o a_o full_a taste_n of_o his_o love_n in_o christ_n chap._n vi_o stay_v i_o the_o

when_o we_o may_v have_v the_o benefit_n of_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n and_o of_o the_o communion_n of_o saint_n than_o god_n convey_v comfort_n by_o mean_n god_n will_v not_o comfort_v
