this_o last_o part_n of_o my_o text_n and_o labour_n set_v down_o 1._o the_o measure_n of_o our_o holiness_n viz._n in_o fear_n and_o 2._o the_o object_n of_o this_o fear_n viz._n god_n for_o the_o former_a i_o find_v by_o observation_n general_o three_o kind_n of_o fear_n a_o natural_a fear_n a_o foolish_a fear_n and_o a_o fear_n of_o god_n the_o two_o former_a i_o find_v not_o in_o my_o text_n neither_o will_v the_o time_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o seek_v they_o out_o but_o for_o the_o last_o i_o find_v it_o general_o to_o be_v of_o two_o fort_n the_o fear_n of_o god_n it_o be_v either_o servile_a or_o filial_a the_o object_n of_o the_o former_a be_v god_n judgement_n but_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o latter_a be_v the_o effect_n of_o his_o love_n and_o mercy_n and_o both_o these_o in_o a_o different_a manner_n be_v the_o measure_n and_o foundation_n of_o holiness_n and_o look_v what_o difference_n be_v betwixt_o a_o servant_n and_o a_o son_n they_o fear_v to_o offend_v the_o one_o for_o punishment_n the_o other_o for_o love_n so_o howsoever_o good_a man_n love_n god_n even_o of_o zeal_n unto_o his_o glory_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o amiss_o to_o be_v restrain_v from_o sin_n even_o for_o fear_n of_o judgement_n it_o be_v best_a say_v augustine_n to_o be_v a_o son_n yet_o better_a to_o be_v a_o servant_n then_o a_o enemy_n si_fw-mi non_fw-la potes_fw-la propter_fw-la amorem_fw-la iustitiae_fw-la fac_fw-la propter_fw-la timorem_fw-la poenae_fw-la the_o affection_n of_o a_o enemy_n be_v hatred_n of_o a_o servant_n be_v the_o rod_n of_o punishment_n but_o of_o a_o son_n be_v love_n and_o reverence_n and_o according_o i_o find_v three_o sort_n of_o fear_n the_o first_o of_o which_o be_v mere_o slavish_a lumpish_a unprofitable_a and_o dogged_a kind_n of_o fear_n full_a of_o hatred_n and_o devilish_a despite_n and_o indeed_o the_o fear_n of_o devil_n and_o reprobate_a spirit_n which_o find_v no_o mercy_n because_o it_o seek_v no_o mercy_n and_o the_o devil_n do_v thus_o beiecue_v and_o tremble_v but_o there_o be_v a_o fear_n of_o god_n righteous_a judgement_n which_o even_o in_o good_a man_n have_v a_o good_a effect_n for_o it_o restrain_v from_o impiety_n et_fw-la maxima_fw-la est_fw-la poena_fw-la timorem_fw-la amisisse_fw-la poenae_fw-la bernard_n i_o consider_v my_o way_n 119.59_o psal_n 119.59_o say_v david_n and_o so_o i_o turn_v my_o foot_n unto_o thy_o testimony_n for_o who_o so_o consider_v his_o way_n shall_v find_v his_o want_n and_o withal_o remember_v the_o terror_n of_o god_n judgement_n and_o the_o necessity_n of_o his_o justice_n to_o punish_v yea_o and_o to_o punish_v according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o offence_n it_o will_v daunt_v and_o terrify_v the_o heart_n of_o any_o from_o offend_v if_o it_o be_v not_o past_a feel_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o augustine_n have_v to_o like_a purpose_n atimore_n tenera_fw-la conscientia_fw-la à _fw-la tenera_fw-la conscientia_fw-la bona_fw-la vita_fw-la hinc_fw-la decrescit_fw-la

a_o bridle_n to_o restrain_v from_o fin_n and_o a_o step_n to_o beget_v the_o three_o which_o be_v the_o filial_a fear_n of_o love_n but_o saint_n john_n say_v perfect_a love_n cast_v out_o fear_n 1._o joh._n 4.18_o viz._n this_o servile_a fear_n and_o beget_v another_o bear_v of_o the_o free_a spirit_n psal_n 51._o viz._n this_o filial_a fear_n the_o fear_n and_o reverence_n of_o a_o son_n to_o a_o love_a father_n of_o this_o the_o prophet_n speak_v there_o be_v mercy_n with_o thou_o o_o lord_n therefore_o shall_v thou_o be_v fear_v and_o this_o be_v that_o of_o which_o saint_n luke_n speak_v we_o must_v serve_v god_n without_o fear_n luk._n 1._o 1.74_o luk._n 1.74_o and_o saint_n paul_n make_v it_o more_o plain_a rom._n 8._o not_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n for_o fear_n of_o punishment_n but_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n and_o freedom_n even_o of_o zeal_n unto_o his_o glory_n and_o this_o be_v the_o best_a and_o most_o excellent_a way_n of_o fear_n which_o i_o do_v take_v to_o be_v the_o principal_a aim_n and_o intendment_n of_o my_o text_n and_o so_o to_o bring_v this_o fear_n back_o to_o my_o text_n and_o my_o text_n home_o to_o yourselves_o first_o because_o we_o must_v grow_v to_o full_a holiness_n in_o fear_n
