this_o text_n in_o the_o ephesian_n we_o must_v labour_v to_o comprehend_v the_o height_n and_o depth_n and_o to_o know_v the_o love_n of_o christ_n which_o pass_v knowledge_n you_o will_v say_v these_o be_v too_o wonderful_a thing_n for_o we_o to_o know_v nay_o the_o apostle_n pray_v that_o they_o may_v know_v that_o which_o pass_v knowledge_n though_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o it_o pass_v all_o knowledge_n yet_o still_o there_o may_v be_v so_o much_o of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o these_o thing_n as_o may_v help_v you_o to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n and_o make_v your_o heart_n spiritual_a for_o say_v the_o text_n that_o you_o may_v know_v the_o love_n of_o god_n which_o pass_v knowledge_n that_o you_o may_v be_v fill_v with_o all_o the_o fullness_n of_o god_n it_o be_v a_o very_a strange_a phrase_n for_o the_o creature_n to_o be_v fill_v with_o god_n and_o have_v we_o it_o not_o in_o scripture_n we_o shall_v not_o have_v dare_v to_o have_v use_v such_o a_o expression_n but_o here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fill_v with_o all_o the_o fullness_n of_o god_n this_o phrase_n be_v a_o great_a deal_n high_o but_o how_o come_v this_o to_o pass_v by_o comprehend_v the_o height_n and_o depth_n and_o length_n and_o breadth_n that_o be_v by_o understanding_n jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o he_o by_o this_o mean_n do_v the_o soul_n come_v to_o be_v fill_v with_o all_o the_o fullness_n of_o god_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o christian_n be_v so_o empty_a in_o their_o spirit_n in_o their_o conversation_n but_o because_o they_o know_v so_o little_a of_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n if_o thou_o do_v but_o understand_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o how_o the_o lord_n make_v know_v himself_o in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n this_o will_v fill_v thy_o heart_n with_o all_o the_o fullness_n of_o god_n those_o christian_n be_v the_o christian_n fill_v with_o excellency_n indeed_o that_o do_v comprehend_v the_o height_n and_o depth_n and_o length_n and_o breadth_n of_o this_o wonderful_a work_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n there_o be_v nothing_o sanctify_v the_o heart_n so_o much_o as_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n in_o a_o right_a way_n seneca_n have_v such_o a_o expression_n concern_v the_o heaven_n oh_o the_o heaven_n be_v a_o wonderful_a spectacle_n and_o a_o spectacle_n fit_a for_o a_o

in_o the_o heaven_n be_v such_o as_o it_o must_v needs_o take_v a_o rational_a creature_n oh_o what_o be_v the_o wonderful_a work_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n therefore_o let_v we_o make_v it_o the_o chief_a of_o our_o study_n to_o study_v the_o lord_n jesus_n luther_n have_v a_o expression_n to_o the_o same_o purpose_n o_o say_v he_o i_o vehement_o i_o extreme_o be_o displease_v with_o

i_o can_v get_v it_o to_o be_v transfuse_v into_o my_o very_a bone_n and_o marrow_n i_o will_v fain_o get_v it_o in_o there_o saint_n paul_n in_o gal._n 1.15_o 16._o say_v he_o be_v separate_v from_o his_o mother_n womb_n and_o call_v by_o grace_n and_o have_v christ_n reveal_v in_o he_o o_o bless_a be_v that_o soul_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v separate_v for_o himself_o that_o jesus_n christ_n may_v be_v reveal_v in_o it_o that_o be_v a_o bless_a soul_n you_o know_v how_o paul_n account_v the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n the_o excellent_a knowledge_n the_o excellency_n of_o knowledge_n and_o account_v all_o thing_n dung_n and_o dross_n in_o comparison_n and_o so_o david_n in_o psal_n 119.27_o make_v i_o to_o understand_v the_o way_n of_o thy_o precept_n so_o shall_v i_o talk_v of_o thy_o

you_o can_v not_o but_o talk_v of_o the_o wonderful_a thing_n that_o god_n have_v do_v for_o your_o soul_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o as_o we_o be_v to_o labour_v to_o search_v that_o we_o may_v know_v more_o so_o to_o give_v god_n the_o praise_n of_o this_o his_o wonder_n that_o he_o have_v do_v in_o psal_n 107.8_o oh_o that_o man_n will_v praise_v the_o lord_n for_o the_o wonderful_a thing_n that_o he_o have_v do_v for_o the_o child_n of_o man_n it_o be_v mean_v there_o i_o confess_v of_o the_o wonderful_a work_n of_o god_n providence_n but_o sure_o if_o god_n be_v to_o be_v praise_v and_o magnify_v for_o his_o wonderful_a work_n of_o providence_n much_o more_o for_o the_o wonderful_a work_n that_o he_o have_v do_v for_o the_o soul_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o so_o in_o psal_n 86.9_o 10._o you_o have_v a_o expression_n there_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n all_o nation_n who_o thou_o have_v make_v shall_v come_v and_o worship_n before_o thou_o o_o lord_n and_o shall_v glorify_v thy_o name_n for_o thou_o be_v great_a and_o do_v wondrous_a thing_n oh_o that_o this_o scripture_n be_v fulfil_v that_o all_o nation_n may_v come_v and_o worship_v the_o lord_n and_o

nothing_o so_o much_o regard_v of_o god_n himself_o as_o the_o wonderful_a thing_n he_o have_v do_v in_o christ_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n expect_v that_o the_o saint_n shall_v glorify_v he_o more_o for_o that_o than_o for_o any_o thing_n else_o and_o the_o truth_n be_v god_n reject_v all_o the_o glory_n that_o he_o have_v from_o his_o creature_n except_o he_o have_v it_o because_o of_o the_o wonder_n that_o he_o have_v do_v in_o his_o son_n and_o as_o we_o shall_v study_v christ_n and_o praise_n and_o bless_v god_n and_o have_v our_o heart_n enlarge_v for_o jesus_n christ_n so_o this_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o believer_n to_o who_o god_n have_v reveal_v christ_n as_o wonderful_a that_o in_o their_o conversation_n they_o shall_v hold_v out_o the_o wonderful_a glory_n of_o

a_o surfeit_n of_o good_a meat_n though_o the_o meat_n be_v good_a yet_o he_o may_v surfeit_v upon_o it_o so_o though_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n the_o care_n and_o the_o pleasure_n may_v be_v as_o some_o thing_n be_v in_o themselves_o lawful_a yet_o by_o a_o inordinate_a and_o immoderate_a let_v out_o thy_o heart_n to_o lawful_a thing_n thou_o may_v surfeit_v thy_o soul_n and_o it_o may_v die_v of_o that_o surfeit_n many_o man_n think_v themselves_o out_o of_o danger_n if_o the_o thing_n that_o their_o heart_n be_v upon_o be_v in_o themselves_o lawful_a they_o be_v not_o swearer_n

which_o be_v in_o its_o self_n lawful_a and_o yet_o thy_o soul_n may_v take_v a_o surfeit_n and_o perish_v eternal_o ten_o and_o last_o many_o lose_v their_o soul_n by_o forfeit_v they_o and_o that_o by_o these_o two_o way_n first_o a_o man_n forfeit_v his_o soul_n as_o man_n do_v their_o coppyholds_a by_o not_o tender_v that_o homage_n to_o their_o lord_n that_o be_v due_a by_o which_o they_o hold_v their_o land_n and_o so_o their_o land_n come_v to_o be_v forfeit_a so_o do_v thou_o god_n have_v give_v thou_o thy_o precious_a soul_n more_o worth_a than_o all_o the_o world_n and_o thou_o hold_v it_o of_o god_n but_o so_o as_o thou_o must_v tender_v up_o to_o this_o lord_n that_o homage_n that_o be_v due_a to_o he_o that_o be_v thou_o must_v worship_v god_n when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n this_o be_v that_o we_o do_v we_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n that_o we_o acknowledge_v to_o be_v due_a to_o god_n for_o these_o soul_n of_o we_o that_o he_o have_v give_v unto_o we_o that_o be_v our_o worship_n that_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o worship_n the_o tender_v up_o something_o by_o way_n of_o homage_n to_o acknowledge_v that_o due_a respect_n we_o owe_v unto_o god_n as_o that_o lord_n that_o have_v the_o absolute_a dispose_n of_o we_o now_o by_o neglect_n of_o worship_v of_o god_n of_o tender_v up_o his_o homage_n thou_o forfeite_v thy_o soul_n and_o indangerest_n thyself_o to_o perish_v eternal_o and_o oh_o how_o few_o people_n regard_v any_o such_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o though_o they_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o god_n require_v as_o pray_v and_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n yet_o do_v they_o not_o do_v it_o as_o in_o a_o way_n of_o tender_v up_o homage_n to_o that_o god_n upon_o who_o they_o do_v only_o depend_v but_o now_o this_o be_v that_o which_o god_n require_v of_o we_o or_o otherwise_o our_o soul_n be_v forfeit_v second_o man_n forfeit_v their_o soul_n by_o break_v covenant_n with_o god_n however_o there_o may_v be_v some_o that_o god_n will_v not_o take_v the_o forfeiture_n of_o yet_o certain_o upon_o thy_o breach_n of_o covenant_n with_o god_n thy_o soul_n be_v forfeit_v thou_o do_v engage_v thy_o soul_n to_o god_n every_o time_n thou_o do_v enter_v into_o covenant_n with_o he_o it_o may_v be_v say_v of_o any_o man_n or_o woman_n that_o enter_v into_o covenant_n with_o god_n who_o be_v this_o that_o have_v engage_v his_o soul_n to_o god_n now_o thou_o engage_v and_o bind_v thy_o soul_n to_o god_n in_o thy_o covenant_n upon_o thy_o breach_n of_o it_o deal_v false_o thou_o do_v forfeit_v thy_o soul_n and_o by_o these_o several_a way_n soul_n be_v lose_v and_o oh_o how_o many_o thousand_o soul_n perish_v with_o such_o way_n and_o manner_n as_o these_o be_v and_o therefore_o see_v there_o be_v such_o several_a way_n of_o the_o loss_n of_o soul_n let_v not_o people_n think_v themselves_o safe_a though_o they_o do_v not_o go_v in_o some_o way_n whereby_o they_o may_v come_v to_o lose_v their_o soul_n for_o there_o be_v very_o many_o way_n whereby_o thou_o may_v lose_v thy_o soul_n and_o so_o miscarry_v to_o eternity_n use_v the_o other_o use_v that_o remain_v be_v this_o if_o the_o loss_n of_o our_o soul_n be_v so_o dreadful_a a_o thing_n and_o there_o be_v so_o many_o way_n for_o the_o lose_n of_o they_o than_o it_o concern_v we_o near_o to_o examine_v whether_o we_o be_v not_o in_o such_o a_o condition_n for_o the_o present_a that_o if_o our_o soul_n shall_v depart_v out_o of_o our_o body_n they_o will_v certain_o be_v lose_v this_o be_v a_o needful_a scrutiny_n and_o a_o most_o necessary_a inquiry_n many_o man_n have_v these_o thought_n what_o if_o i_o shall_v now_o die_v i_o have_v not_o make_v my_o will_n and_o my_o estate_n will_v go_v such_o and_o such_o way_n as_o i_o will_v not_o have_v it_o it_o will_v be_v squander_v away_o it_o will_v be_v spend_v in_o suit_n of_o law_n i_o but_o rather_o let_v thy_o thought_n run_v out_o thus_o what_o if_o i_o shall_v now_o die_v will_v not_o my_o soul_n be_v lose_v and_o perish_v for_o ever_o now_o though_o i_o have_v say_v we_o can_v set_v forth_o such_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n and_o conclude_v that_o their_o

it_o be_v if_o god_n do_v no_o more_o for_o it_o than_o he_o have_v yet_o do_v that_o then_o it_o will_v certain_o be_v lose_v indeed_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n may_v come_v to_o know_v and_o certain_o to_o conclude_v that_o they_o be_v elect_v but_o none_o can_v come_v to_o such_o a_o conclusion_n to_o know_v certain_o that_o they_o be_v reprobate_n the_o vile_a wretch_n that_o be_v upon_o the_o

therefore_o sure_o we_o can_v conclude_v against_o another_o if_o not_o against_o ourselves_o well_o but_o who_o be_v they_o that_o if_o god_n shall_v work_v no_o otherwise_o upon_o they_o than_o he_o have_v do_v that_o then_o their_o soul_n will_v be_v lose_v first_o in_o the_o first_o place_n that_o soul_n to_o who_o god_n have_v not_o make_v know_v and_o convince_v it_o of_o the_o dangerous_a natural_a condition_n in_o which_o it_o be_v if_o such_o a_o soul_n shall_v depart_v from_o the_o body_n it_o will_v be_v lose_v only_o let_v i_o premise_v these_o two_o caution_n i_o do_v not_o

may_v do_v in_o extraordinary_a way_n but_o in_o a_o ordinary_a course_n and_o way_n of_o god_n deal_n with_o the_o child_n of_o man_n that_o he_o let_v live_v to_o come_v to_o year_n and_o be_v under_o mean_n these_o follow_a rule_n will_v discover_v who_o they_o be_v that_o at_o the_o present_n be_v in_o a_o lose_a condition_n i_o say_v such_o to_o who_o god_n have_v never_o reveal_v and_o convince_v they_o of_o the_o evil_a of_o their_o natural_a condition_n in_o which_o they_o be_v bear_v in_o which_o they_o be_v if_o god_n shall_v let_v they_o so_o die_v and_o make_v know_v no_o more_o to_o they_o than_o he_o have_v such_o a_o soul_n will_v be_v lose_v and_o that_o upon_o this_o ground_n because_o that_o without_o faith_n it_o must_v be_v lose_v that_o be_v acknowledge_v by_o all_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v damn_v be_v condemn_v already_o now_o there_o can_v be_v faith_n in_o a_o saviour_n to_o save_v the_o soul_n but_o it_o must_v needs_o imply_v that_o i_o
