tongue_n can_v they_o reach_v any_o deep_a than_o the_o old_a nature_n or_o be_v their_o service_n any_o more_o than_o to_o build_v up_o that_o which_o god_n will_v throw_v down_o be_v it_o not_o better_o for_o you_o to_o be_v still_o and_o silent_a then_o to_o cumber_v yourselves_o in_o so_o much_o business_n that_o profit_v nothing_o at_o all_o oh_o that_o you_o will_v once_o come_v to_o be_v silent_a to_o the_o flesh_n that_o you_o may_v feel_v the_o quicken_a of_o the_o spirit_n and_o to_o that_o state_n you_o must_v come_v if_o ever_o you_o be_v true_o happy_a for_o mercy_n apprehend_v will_v not_o satisfy_v your_o soul_n but_o mercy_n obtain_v in_o the_o election_n through_o judgement_n to_o the_o reprobation_n be_v that_o which_o stand_v sure_a for_o ever_o and_o they_o that_o so_o obtain_v mercy_n with_o the_o lord_n they_o true_o rejoice_v in_o mercy_n and_o wait_v to_o be_v preserve_v in_o it_o for_o there_o be_v too_o many_o word_n speak_v with_o the_o old_a tongue_n and_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o every_o man_n be_v own_o word_n will_v become_v his_o burden_n therefore_o do_v not_o increase_v your_o burden_n by_o multiply_v your_o own_o word_n for_o certain_o they_o all_o gender_n to_o bondage_n the_o innocent_a life_n groan_v under_o they_o for_o every_o word_n speak_v and_o not_o in_o the_o life_n be_v a_o burden_n to_o the_o righteous_a seed_n and_o if_o you_o yet_o say_v in_o your_o heart_n our_o tongue_n be_v our_o own_o we_o will_v prevail_v who_o be_v lord_n over_o we_o you_o will_v certain_o know_v your_o burden_n will_v be_v too_o heavy_a to_o bear_v in_o the_o late_a end_n and_o though_o you_o may_v bring_v scripture_n that_o do_v allow_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n and_o to_o exhort_v one_o another_o and_o edify_v one_o another_o and_o build_v up_o one_o another_o yet_o you_o can_v bring_v any_o scripture_n that_o do_v allow_v the_o old_a tongue_n to_o do_v it_o neither_o can_v it_o be_v true_o so_o do_v by_o it_o for_o they_o that_o speak_v of_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n and_o exhort_v one_o another_o &_o edify_v one_o another_o according_a to_o scripture_n they_o witness_v their_o change_n out_o of_o the_o old_a nature_n and_o be_v come_v to_o the_o silence_n of_o all_o flesh_n and_o they_o be_v of_o the_o new_a birth_n which_o be_v not_o of_o flesh_n nor_o of_o blood_n nor_o of_o the_o will_n of_o man_n but_o of_o god_n and_o the_o tongue_n of_o the_o new_a birth_n speak_v to_o edification_n and_o comfort_n of_o the_o body_n for_o it_o be_v the_o first_o bear_v of_o god_n that_o speak_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n and_o so_o they_o exhort_v one_o another_o and_o edify_v one_o another_o who_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n and_o this_o you_o must_v come_v unto_o if_o ever_o you_o know_v the_o tongue_n of_o the_o learned_a for_o whilst_o you_o speak_v of_o yourselves_o you_o be_v but_o seek_v your_o own_o glory_n but_o he_o that_o seek_v the_o glory_n of_o he_o that_o send_v he_o the_o same_o be_v true_a and_o there_o be_v no_o unrighteousness_n in_o he_o therefore_o do_v not_o hunt_v in_o nimrod_n nature_n to_o build_v babel_n but_o feel_v the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o bridle_v your_o tongue_n for_o if_o the_o tongue_n be_v not_o bridle_v the_o religion_n be_v vain_a and_o if_o you_o will_v but_o come_v to_o that_o than_o you_o will_v know_v the_o sweetness_n of_o a_o silent_a quiet_a state_n where_o god_n presence_n be_v feel_v and_o his_o life_n enjoy_v where_o all_o man_n be_v own_o word_n have_v their_o period_n for_o they_o that_o come_v to_o the_o life_n they_o need_v not_o be_v always_o learning_n but_o sit_v in_o the_o sweetness_n of_o the_o savour_n that_o the_o life_n minister_v from_o its_o own_o fullness_n and_o when_o word_n be_v speak_v from_o the_o life_n they_o have_v the_o sweetness_n of_o the_o life_n in_o they_o and_o be_v precious_a and_o savoury_a to_o the_o life_n in_o all_o and_o the_o life_n be_v the_o last_o ministration_n that_o ever_o shall_v be_v and_o all_o below_o it_o be_v to_o come_v up_o into_o it_o for_o where_o any_o fall_n short_a of_o it_o their_o labour_n will_v end_v in_o sorrow_o oh_o therefore_o be_v humble_a before_o the_o lord_n god_n and_o stand_v submit_v unto_o his_o power_n that_o you_o may_v come_v to_o his_o life_n who_o have_v any_o breathe_n after_o life_n and_o spend_v not_o your_o day_n in_o the_o multitude_n of_o your_o own_o word_n lest_o you_o finish_v your_o work_n in_o a_o shadow_n and_o miss_v the_o substance_n which_o shall_v do_v you_o good_a so_o be_v humble_a in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n that_o you_o may_v feel_v the_o time_n of_o refresh_v come_v from_o his_o presence_n and_o do_v not_o covet_v after_o riches_n but_o wait_v in_o the_o poverty_n to_o be_v feed_v with_o god_n mercy_n for_o it_o be_v better_a to_o be_v a_o doorkeeper_n in_o the_o house_n of_o god_n then_o to_o dwell_v in_o the_o tent_n of_o wickedness_n and_o all_o that_o will_v enter_v into_o the_o court_n of_o the_o lord_n house_n and_o come_v to_o feed_v at_o the_o table_n of_o the_o lord_n they_o must_v enter_v in_o by_o the_o power_n and_o sit_v down_o in_o the_o power_n where_o all_o the_o lamb_n and_o babe_n be_v feed_v with_o plenty_n for_o the_o famine_n be_v without_o the_o gate_n but_o within_o there_o be_v all_o thing_n good_a for_o food_n the_o feast_n of_o fat_a thing_n be_v there_o prepare_v and_o thither_o must_v all_o come_v that_o receive_v the_o bread_n of_o life_n well_o friend_n my_o love_n be_v tender_o to_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n in_o you_o but_o in_o that_o nature_n where_o you_o be_v i_o can_v say_v that_o i_o have_v unity_n with_o you_o though_o i_o hearty_o desire_v that_o i_o can_v say_v it_o in_o truth_n yea_o much_o rather_o than_o to_o declare_v the_o contrary_a but_o so_o it_o be_v &_o so_o it_o must_v be_v until_o you_o be_v regenerate_v and_o bear_v again_o which_o work_n i_o wait_v to_o see_v wrought_v in_o you_o that_o all_o the_o child_n of_o light_n may_v so_o know_v you_o as_o to_o say_v in_o truth_n they_o have_v unity_n with_o you_o which_o work_n i_o leave_v with_o god_n who_o be_v able_a in_o his_o own_o time_n to_o accomplish_v what_o be_v want_v and_o to_o gather_v together_o in_o one_o such_o as_o be_v scatter_v and_o to_o bring_v they_o into_o one_o fold_n and_o into_o one_o pasture_n where_o his_o name_n be_v one_o and_o his_o people_n one_o not_o by_o apprehension_n and_o opinion_n but_o in_o truth_n and_o life_n which_o be_v the_o singleness_n of_o heart_n i_o desire_v that_o so_o it_o may_v be_v with_o you_o before_o the_o day_n pass_v over_o for_o now_o it_o be_v therefore_o prize_v it_o whilst_o it_o be_v lest_o it_o pass_v away_o from_o you_o and_o be_v no_o more_o
