to_o the_o sripture_n but_o if_o he_o be_v a_o heathen_a and_o act_n herein_o but_o full_o up_o to_o his_o light_n i_o dare_v not_o deny_v the_o same_o of_o he_o and_o indeed_o what_o be_v that_o pure_a love_n of_o god_n out_o of_o which_o you_o will_v say_v alone_o a_o man_n must_v act_v if_o you_o love_v i_o say_v christ_n who_o know_v best_a keep_v my_o commandment_n the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o keep_v his_o commandment_n be_v the_o same_o the_o command_n of_o god_n be_v to_o be_v keep_v that_o we_o may_v inherit_v eternal_a life_n christ_n tell_v the_o ruler_n in_o the_o gospel_n express_v i_o have_v note_v before_o and_o consequent_o we_o may_v love_v god_n to_o that_o end_n if_o man_n can_v do_v any_o good_a to_o god_n by_o his_o duty_n or_o any_o hurt_n by_o his_o sin_n than_o shall_v i_o believe_v there_o be_v some_o other_o end_n of_o our_o duty_n than_o man_n salvation_n you_o may_v say_v this_o appear_v selfish_a or_o self-love_n only_o i_o answer_v that_o that_o man_n then_o who_o do_v but_o love_n himself_o so_o as_o to_o seek_v the_o salvation_n of_o his_o soul_n above_o his_o flesh_n this_o world_n and_o any_o thing_n therein_o be_v the_o man_n he_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n if_o you_o stick_v at_o it_o consider_v what_o be_v salvation_n a_o love_a god_n a_o delight_v in_o he_o a_o conformity_n to_o he_o i_o love_v god_n in_o keep_v his_o commandment_n in_o this_o life_n that_o i_o may_v be_v conform_v to_o he_o and_o have_v complacency_n in_o he_o to_o all_o eternity_n i_o will_v add_v our_o orthodox_n divine_n say_v not_o and_z are_z not_o to_o be_v so_o understand_v that_o good_a work_n may_v not_o be_v do_v with_o respect_n to_o the_o reward_n but_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o reward_n as_o due_a to_o they_o ex_fw-la condigno_fw-la for_o to_o expect_v that_o god_n shall_v accept_v of_o what_o we_o do_v in_o bear_v with_o our_o fail_n and_o reward_v we_o out_o of_o grace_n when_o we_o walk_v sincere_o before_o he_o be_v but_o to_o act_v our_o faith_n on_o or_o put_v our_o trust_n in_o his_o declare_a goodness_n christ_n merit_n and_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o other_o apprehension_n be_v that_o a_o christian_n must_v not_o live_v on_o his_o own_o purse_n or_o earning_n a_o pretty_a sound_n of_o something_o which_o as_o i_o suppose_v do_v signify_v that_o which_o other_o divine_n intend_v by_o rest_a in_o duty_n there_o be_v therefore_o a_o rest_v in_o duty_n i_o may_v say_v and_o a_o rest_v on_o god_n in_o duty_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o a_o christian_a be_v to_o trust_v to_o god_n for_o whatsoever_o he_o seek_v of_o he_o upon_o the_o performance_n of_o his_o duty_n when_o it_o be_v but_o presumption_n to_o do_v so_o without_o that_o performance_n it_o be_v true_a that_o no_o man_n by_o any_o thing_n he_o can_v do_v see_v when_o he_o have_v do_v all_o he_o be_v but_o a_o unprofitable_a servant_n can_v deserve_v or_o merit_v any_o thing_n from_o god_n hand_n and_o much_o less_o his_o save_a grace_n which_o be_v most_o free_a so_o as_o it_o may_v be_v proper_o say_v to_o be_v earn_v as_o wage_n be_v due_a unto_o work_n or_o to_o make_v his_o blessing_n of_o debt_n yet_o be_v a_o christian_a by_o his_o prayer_n and_o the_o like_a duty_n say_v to_o get_v or_o obtain_v from_o god_n whasoever_o he_o have_v from_o he_o and_o as_o a_o man_n do_v live_v on_o his_o estate_n which_o he_o get_v so_o may_v a_o christian_a be_v say_v to_o live_v his_o spiritual_a life_n upon_o the_o riches_n of_o god_n grace_n which_o he_o get_v by_o his_o duty_n the_o want_n of_o trust_v to_o duty_n therefore_o in_o a_o right_a sense_n be_v indeed_o i_o doubt_v i_o more_o reprovable_a in_o our_o protestant_n ordinary_o than_o their_o rest_n in_o duty_n and_o i_o be_o serious_o trouble_v very_o often_o at_o what_o i_o have_v observe_v in_o some_o of_o our_o special_a practical_a divine_n about_o this_o point_n of_o rest_v in_o duty_n i_o will_v particular_o name_v mr._n shepherd_n sincere_a convert_n which_o be_v enough_o to_o bring_v any_o man_n religious_o melancholy_a for_o the_o more_o pious_a his_o soul_n be_v in_o the_o case_n the_o more_o liable_a it_o must_v be_v to_o such_o stroke_n into_o desperation_n i_o will_v therefore_o say_v thus_o much_o in_o zeal_n against_o that_o danger_n let_v a_o man_n be_v but_o careful_a of_o two_o thing_n about_o rest_v in_o duty_n and_o trouble_v himself_o henceforth_o no_o more_o but_o about_o the_o do_v of_o it_o the_o first_o be_v let_v he_o take_v heed_n of_o make_v any_o duty_n a_o pillow_n to_o lay_v his_o head_n on_o to_o rest_v in_o sin_n thus_o it_o be_v dangerous_a indeed_o to_o rest_v in_o duty_n and_o this_o may_v be_v either_o when_o a_o man_n think_v he_o may_v sin_v and_o go_v on_o in_o it_o because_o he_o pray_v give_v alm_n or_o the_o like_a as_o if_o that_o will_v bear_v he_o out_o or_o chief_o when_o a_o man_n shall_v sit_v down_o short_a of_o sincere_a conversion_n by_o do_v of_o some_o duty_n that_o be_v by_o take_v up_o in_o leave_v some_o sin_n and_o do_v many_o thing_n he_o do_v not_o before_o he_o shall_v content_v himself_o and_o not_o come_v up_o to_o that_o universal_a unreserved_a give_v up_o himself_o to_o christ_n as_o be_v require_v of_o he_o to_o that_o sincerity_n of_o life_n which_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o salvation_n this_o be_v the_o most_o deadly_a dangerous_a rest_v in_o duty_n that_o i_o will_v admonish_v every_o soul_n of_o and_o then_o for_o the_o second_o i_o will_v say_v only_o let_v he_o be_v a_o protestant_n which_o i_o count_v he_o be_v and_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o his_o opinion_n alone_o against_o merit_n and_o that_o he_o be_v justify_v through_o christ_n will_v secure_v he_o for_o the_o rest_n of_o this_o business_n provide_v though_o he_o remember_v still_o that_o humility_n and_o the_o like_a qualification_n of_o soul_n when_o he_o have_v do_v all_o he_o can_v do_v be_v also_o his_o duty_n and_o now_o after_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o these_o head_n if_o any_o be_v otherwise_o mind_v in_o whatsoever_o i_o have_v hitherto_o say_v and_o be_v resolve_v to_o keep_v to_o that_o only_a which_o they_o count_v the_o sound_a calvinisme_n in_o they_o all_o i_o will_v be_v so_o candid_a as_o to_o lay_v down_o their_o doctrine_n for_o they_o to_o the_o best_a advantage_n god_n have_v elect_v some_o to_o salvation_n christ_n die_v only_o for_o they_o that_o which_o he_o have_v purchase_v by_o his_o death_n be_v not_o only_o the_o benefit_n conditional_o but_o faith_n itself_o the_o condition_n faith_n be_v the_o persuasion_n of_o a_o man_n that_o christ_n have_v die_v particular_o for_o he_o and_o so_o his_o sin_n be_v forgive_v this_o persuasion_n or_o apprehension_n of_o christ_n make_v christ_n once_o
