when_o he_o dwell_v in_o paradise_n as_o there_o be_v a_o whole_a old_a man_n so_o there_o must_v be_v a_o whole_a new_a man_n the_o old_a man_n must_v change_v property_n with_o the_o new_a man_n

on_o and_o daily_o increase_v more_o and_o more_o in_o faith_n and_o fear_n of_o jesus_n christ_n whereby_o we_o receive_v all_o our_o growth_n and_o increase_n in_o god_n and_o therefore_o he_o have_v give_v we_o special_a mean_n that_o be_v the_o meditation_n and_o lively_a preach_v of_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n by_o a_o figurative_a and_o borrow_a speech_n earnest_o press_v they_o to_o thirst_n and_o to_o long_o for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n even_o for_o the_o foood_a of_o their_o soul_n for_o there_o be_v two_o birth_n mention_v in_o the_o scripture_n the_o one_o fleshly_a and_o natural_o by_o propagation_n from_o the_o first_o adam_n whereby_o original_a and_o our_o birth_n sin_n as_o it_o be_v a_o serpent_n poison_n pass_v and_o transfuse_v

unto_o us._n in_o this_o latter_a and_o better_a birth_n god_n be_v our_o father_n to_o beget_v we_o the_o church_n his_o spouse_n our_o mother_n to_o conceive_v we_o the_o seed_n whereby_o we_o be_v

and_o hold_v in_o life_n be_v the_o milk_n of_o the_o word_n therefore_o in_o as_o much_o as_o child_n which_o be_v new_o bear_v can_v increase_v in_o growth_n and_o stature_n but_o must_v needs_o

quicken_v and_o reviue_v in_o the_o life_n of_o god_n as_o new_o bear_v babe_n to_o desire_v the_o sincere_a milk_n of_o the_o word_n that_o they_o may_v grow_v by_o it_o let_v we_o now_o therefore_o come_v to_o the_o particular_a part_n which_o issue_n and_o spring_n from_o the_o several_a branch_n of_o this_o scripture_n first_o here_o be_v note_v a_o preparation_n if_o we_o will_v be_v better_v and_o increase_v by_o the_o word_n we_o must_v be_v as_o new_o bear_v babe_n second_o our_o affection_n and_o duty_n when_o we_o be_v new_o bear_v we_o must_v desire_v three_o the_o matter_n and_o

that_o we_o may_v grow_v thereby_o now_o for_o the_o first_o point_n we_o must_v be_v as_o new_o bear_v babe_n for_o child_n we_o know_v be_v principal_o commend_v for_o simplicity_n and_o harmlesnes_n and_o therefore_o all_o those_o which_o will_v profit_v in_o the_o school_n of_o christ_n and_o receive_v light_a and_o comfort_n by_o the_o preach_n and_o meditation_n of_o the_o word_n be_v here_o teach_v to_o become_v as_o babe_n to_o lay_v aside_o all_o maliciousness_n and_o to_o bring_v holy_a and_o sanctify_a heart_n to_o the_o hear_n of_o it_o for_o we_o be_v never_o fit_a to_o hear_v and_o learn_v of_o christ_n till_o we_o be_v reform_v and_o new_o renew_v and_o change_v again_o for_o the_o secret_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o david_n say_v be_v with_o they_o that_o fear_v he_o psal_n 25.14_o god_n will_v not_o admit_v no_o sinful_a soul_n into_o his_o secret_n for_o wisdom_n will_v not_o rest_v in_o the_o defile_a soul_n nor_o in_o a_o body_n that_o be_v subject_a to_o sin_n therefore_o if_o we_o will_v have_v the_o lord_n to_o bless_v our_o hear_n and_o read_v we_o must_v wash_v and_o rinse_v out_o the_o dregs_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v freeze_v in_o we_o that_o be_v we_o must_v purge_v the_o leven_a of_o maliciousness_n that_o sour_v our_o soul_n we_o must_v cast_v up_o our_o covetousness_n and_o pride_n and_o our_o flothfulnes_n and_o for_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o there_o be_v so_o many_o sinful_a and_o non_fw-fr proficient_a hearer_n of_o the_o word_n because_o there_o be_v so_o many_o sinful_a hearer_n wherefore_o to_o shut_v up_o this_o point_n we_o must_v be_v as_o babe_n because_o christ_n reveil_v knowledge_n and_o wisdom_n to_o none_o but_o to_o babe_n and_o yet_o we_o must_v not_o be_v babe_n only_o but_o new_o bear_v babe_n which_o have_v new_a soul_n a_o new_a life_n new_a member_n new_a affection_n impart_v unto_o they_o for_o we_o must_v be_v change_v and_o new_a fashion_v in_o every_o part_n and_o therefore_o they_o which_o be_v implant_v into_o christ_n be_v call_v new_a creature_n because_o neither_o the_o old_a heart_n nor_o the_o old_a man_n nor_o the_o old_a ear_n nor_o the_o old_a eye_n will_v serve_v the_o turn_n but_o all_o must_v be_v change_v and_o new_o frame_v again_o for_o whatsoever_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o flesh_n be_v flesh_n if_o we_o will_v have_v it_o spirit_n that_o be_v fit_a for_o god_n worship_n who_o be_v a_o spirit_n and_o will_v be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n we_o must_v be_v bear_v again_o of_o the_o spirit_n the_o sense_n hereof_o make_v the_o prophet_n david_n cry_v out_o create_v in_o i_o a_o clean_a heart_n o_o god_n and_o renew_v a_o right_a spirit_n in_o i_o so_o let_v we_o never_o rest_v season_v our_o soul_n till_o all_o be_v sanctify_v for_o than_o we_o be_v fit_a to_o understand_v every_o part_n of_o god_n will_n when_o we_o be_v in_o every_o part_n new_o bear_v again_o we_o may_v see_v the_o apostle_n make_v no_o other_o account_n of_o the_o unregenerat_a then_o of_o a_o dead_a man_n and_o therefore_o that_o they_o must_v be_v quicken_v and_o new_o bear_v again_o before_o they_o can_v practice_v or_o perform_v any_o vital_a action_n in_o the_o life_n of_o god_n christ_n be_v resemble_v to_o a_o vine_n and_o we_o to_o the_o brancke_n for_o that_o all_o ivyce_n and_o sap_n whereby_o the_o branch_n spring_n and_o live_v issue_v &_o

until_o god_n bless_v our_o heart_n they_o be_v wicked_a and_o fruitless_a therefore_o as_o a_o unclean_a fountain_n can_v send_v forth_o sweet_a water_n nor_o a_o bad_a tree_n bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n no_o more_o can_v the_o corrupt_v and_o wicked_a heart_n of_o the_o unregenerate_a bud_n and_o bring_v forth_o any_o good_a and_o virtuous_a action_n thus_o much_o of_o our_o condition_n and_o preparation_n whereby_o we_o have_v learn_v with_o how_o holy_a and_o with_o how_o sanctify_a affection_n we_o ought_v to_o repair_v the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n now_o it_o follow_v our_o duty_n and_o affection_n when_o we_o be_v new_o bear_v we_o must_v not_o be_v child_n in_o waver_v and_o inconstancy_n because_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o god_n have_v furnish_v his_o church_n with_o pastor_n and_o teacher_n that_o we_o be_v no_o more_o child_n waver_v and_o carry_v about_o with_o every_o wind_n of_o doctrine_n nor_o we_o must_v not_o be_v child_n in_o understanding_n and_o

for_o this_o cause_n covetousness_n be_v call_v idolatry_n now_o the_o apostle_n to_o make_v we_o to_o love_v godliness_n he_o call_v it_o by_o the_o name_n of_o great_a gain_n hear_v we_o may_v see_v that_o god_n do_v not_o command_v man_n to_o be_v godly_a only_o because_o it_o make_v for_o his_o glory_n but_o because_o godliness_n be_v profitable_a to_o us._n also_o for_o godliness_n be_v not_o call_v gain_n in_o respect_n of_o god_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o we_o it_o be_v gain_v to_o we_o but_o it_o be_v duty_n to_o he_o so_o it_o be_v not_o call_v a_o health_n in_o respect_n of_o we_o because_o it_o be_v the_o health_n of_o our_o soul_n so_o it_o be_v not_o call_v a_o kingdom_n in_o respect_n of_o god_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o we_o because_o we_o be_v entitle_v to_o the_o kingdom_n by_o this_o difference_n from_o the_o reprobate_n now_o put_v all_o the_o good_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n together_o and_o the_o goodness_n of_o all_o be_v find_v in_o godliness_n to_o show_v that_o the_o godly_a be_v as_o well_o as_o merry_a as_o content_v with_o their_o love_n towards_o god_n and_o god_n love_n towards_o they_o as_o other_o be_v with_o health_n and_o wealth_n and_o pleasure_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o godly_a the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v their_o treasure_n but_o the_o riches_n of_o the_o world_n be_v call_v earthly_a transitory_a snare_n dung_n as_o though_o they_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o be_v count_v riches_n and_o therefore_o to_o draw_v the_o earnest_a love_n of_o man_n from_o they_o the_o holy_a ghost_n bring_v they_o in_o with_o such_o name_n of_o disdain_n to_o disgrace_v they_o with_o their_o lover_n but_o when_o he_o come_v to_o godliness_n which_o be_v the_o riches_n of_o the_o soul_n than_o he_o call_v it_o great_a riches_n heavenly_a riches_n unsearchable_a riches_n everlasting_a riches_n with_o all_o the_o name_n of_o pleasure_n and_o all_o the_o name_n of_o happiness_n the_o worldly_a man_n have_v a_o kind_n of_o peace_n and_o joy_n and_o riches_n but_o it_o can_v be_v call_v great_a because_o they_o have_v not_o enough_o they_o be_v not_o content_a as_o the_o godly_a be_v therefore_o godliness_n have_v his_o honour_n to_o be_v call_v great_a gain_n riches_n make_v bate_v but_o godliness_n make_v peace_n riches_n breed_v covetousness_n but_o godliness_n bring_v contentation_n riches_n make_v a_o man_n unwilling_a to_o die_v but_o godliness_n make_v a_o man_n ready_a to_o die_v therefore_o only_a godliness_n have_v this_o honour_n to_o be_v call_v great_a riches_n such_o joy_n such_o peace_n be_v in_o godliness_n and_o yet_o no_o man_n covet_v it_o for_o this_o be_v the_o quality_n of_o virtue_n it_o seem_v nothing_o unto_o a_o man_n until_o he_o have_v it_o but_o when_o he_o have_v find_v it_o he_o will_v not_o then_o lose_v it_o again_o for_o all_o the_o world_n because_o it_o bring_v he_o to_o be_v content_v with_o that_o he_o have_v now_o because_o contentation_n be_v of_o such_o a_o nature_n that_o it_o can_v please_v itself_o with_o poverty_n aswell_o as_o riches_n as_o though_o it_o have_v all_o which_o they_o want_v and_o this_o contentment_n we_o owe_v to_o godliness_n because_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a for_o a_o wicked_a man_n to_o be_v content_v but_o the_o godly_a man_n have_v find_v that_o which_o all_o the_o world_n do_v seek_v that_o be_v enough_o it_o be_v seldom_o see_v that_o contentation_n be_v find_v in_o riches_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n teach_v we_o to_o seek_v it_o in_o godliness_n say_v godliness_n be_v great_a riches_n and_o this_o riches_n the_o world_n seldom_o think_v of_o but_o when_o godliness_n come_v unto_o a_o man_n it_o say_v peace_n be_v in_o this_o house_n peace_n be_v in_o this_o heart_n peace_n be_v in_o this_o man_n and_o this_o be_v the_o sign_n whether_o godliness_n be_v in_o a_o man_n if_o he_o have_v joy_n and_o contentment_n with_o that_o he_o have_v if_o he_o have_v much_o he_o can_v say_v with_o saint_n paul_n i_o have_v learned_a to_o abound_v if_o he_o have_v little_a i_o have_v learned_a to_o want_v that_o be_v if_o we_o have_v much_o as_o abraham_n as_o lot_n as_o job_n as_o jacob_n etc._n etc._n yet_o it_o can_v corrupt_v his_o mind_n for_o though_o the_o godly_a man_n be_v full_a of_o riches_n yet_o his_o heart_n be_v not_o rend_v his_o mind_n be_v not_o trouble_v his_o countenance_n be_v not_o change_v because_o he_o remember_v that_o these_o thing_n be_v give_v he_o to_o do_v good_a such_o a_o commander_n be_v contentation_n that_o wheresoever_o she_o set_v foot_n a_o hundred_o blessing_n wait_v upon_o she_o in_o every_o disease_n she_o be_v a_o physician_n in_o every_o strife_n she_o be_v a_o lawyer_n in_o every_o doubt_n she_o be_v a_o preacher_n in_o every_o

man_n be_v make_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n and_o nothing_o can_v fill_v it_o but_o god_n alone_o therefore_o bless_v be_v the_o man_n who_o godliness_n do_v make_v rich_a say_v solomon_n and_o bring_v no_o sorrow_n of_o heart_n with_o it_o pro._n 10.22_o these_o be_v the_o riches_n which_o at_o the_o last_o we_o must_v dwell_v with_o when_o all_o the_o rest_n which_o we_o have_v lie_v for_o and_o swear_v for_o and_o fret_v for_o and_o break_v our_o sleep_n for_o and_o lose_v many_o a_o sermon_n for_o will_v forsake_v we_o like_o servant_n which_o change_v their_o master_n than_o godliness_n shall_v seem_v as_o great_a gain_n unto_o we_o as_o it_o do_v to_o saint_n paul_n and_o he_o which_o love_v the_o world_n most_o will_v give_v all_o that_o he_o have_v for_o a_o dram_n of_o faith_n that_o he_o may_v be_v sure_a to_o go_v to_o heaven_n when_o he_o be_v dead_a though_o he_o go_v towards_o hell_n so_o long_o as_o he_o live_v thus_o we_o may_v see_v the_o fruit_n of_o godliness_n and_o the_o fruit_n of_o covetousness_n for_o if_o we_o be_v covetous_a we_o shall_v never_o have_v enough_o although_o we_o have_v too_o much_o but_o if_o we_o be_v godly_a we_o shall_v
