that_o work_v in_o you_o the_o will_n and_o the_o deed_n and_o therefore_o because_o you_o have_v no_o strength_n of_o your_o own_o and_o no_o power_n of_o your_o own_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n therefore_o fear_v and_o tremble_v in_o that_o regard_n second_o fear_n and_o tremble_a may_v very_o well_o be_v consistent_a with_o this_o grace_n of_o assurance_n for_o we_o read_v psal_n 2.11_o

that_o though_o john_n say_v perfect_a love_n cast_v out_o fear_n yet_o john_n do_v not_o say_v that_o imperfect_a love_n cast_v out_o fear_n now_o in_o this_o life_n our_o love_n be_v imperfect_a

this_o subject_n you_o may_v remember_v the_o last_o doctrine_n i_o draw_v forth_o be_v this_o that_o christian_n shall_v put_v forth_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o diligence_n to_o make_v this_o sure_a

do_v that_o say_v you_o may_v have_v a_o persuasion_n which_o they_o call_v fides_n conjecturalis_fw-la a_o conjectural_a faith_n or_o hope_v you_o may_v be_v sau●d_v but_o will_v not_o come_v up_o

now_o hand_v a_o doctrine_n to_o be_v tremble_v at_o while_o you_o be_v attend_v to_o it_o and_o in_o the_o resolve_v this_o quere_z you_o must_v take_v this_o rule_n that_o you_o can_v get_v assurance_n by_o ascend_v into_o god_n decree_n but_o by_o descend_v into_o your_o own_o heart_n search_v

obedience_n in_o the_o habit_n and_o obedience_n in_o his_o purpose_n and_o resolution_n always_o attend_v he_o second_o you_o find_v in_o scripture_n that_o the_o strong_a and_o able_a christian_n who_o have_v do_v most_o for_o god_n have_v sometime_o be_v very_o defective_a in_o the_o act_n of_o obedience_n that_o they_o can_v not_o do_v what_o they_o will_v do_v for_o god_n and_o therefore_o paul_n complain_v rom._n 7._o the_o good_a that_o we_o will_v do_v we_o can_v do_v paul_n himself_o that_o be_v a_o pillar_n in_o god_n house_n yet_o he_o tell_v you_o he_o can_v not_o go_v out_o in_o those_o act_n of_o obedience_n which_o in_o his_o heart_n he_o will_v do_v &_o therefore_o if_o you_o will_v willing_o do_v more_o than_o you_o do_v god_n accept_v of_o the_o little_a you_o do_v three_o though_o you_o can_v not_o put_v forth_o many_o act_n of_o obedience_n to_o god_n where_o there_o be_v readiness_n of_o mind_n and_o heart_n god_n accept_v the_o purpose_n of_o the_o mind_n for_o the_o action_n itself_o 2._o cor._n 8.12_o where_o there_o be_v a_o willing_a mind_n it_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n as_o if_o the_o deed_n be_v do_v and_o thus_o much_o be_v speak_v to_o the_o second_o case_n of_o conscience_n why_o man_n effectual_o call_v do_v so_o much_o doubt_n of_o their_o own_o call_n three_o 3._o see_v christian_n must_v put_v forth_o diligence_n in_o make_v their_o

effectual_a call_n this_o be_v a_o very_a material_a question_n and_o in_o resolve_v of_o it_o i_o shall_v answer_v it_o in_o these_o two_o general_n first_o if_o you_o will_v get_v assurance_n of_o your_o effectual_a call_n you_o must_v put_v forth_o diligence_n to_o remove_v those_o thing_n that_o will_v hinder_v you_o in_o make_v sure_a your_o call_n and_o second_o use_v diligence_n to_o set_v upon_o the_o practice_n of_o those_o duty_n that_o may_v further_o you_o in_o make_v this_o sure_a that_o you_o be_v effectual_o call_v first_o you_o must_v remove_v those_o thing_n which_o do_v much_o hinder_v you_o from_o be_v assure_v and_o those_o hindrance_n that_o be_v to_o be_v remove_v i_o shall_v comprise_v under_o six_o head_n as_o first_o you_o must_v use_v diligence_n to_o remove_v melancholy_a from_o your_o thought_n this_o i●_n a_o natural_a hindrance_n of_o assurance_n melancholy_n be_v a_o temper_n in_o man_n arise_v from_o a_o black_a blood_n run_v about_o the_o body_n that_o do_v naturaly_a occasion_n distrust_n and_o fear_n in_o man_n mind_n this_o temper_n be_v in_o the_o body_n do_v work_n much_o upon_o the_o disposition_n of_o the_o ●oul_n now_o if_o your_o temper_n melancholy_a and_o so_o dispose_v you_o to_o distrust_n and_o fear_n this_o will_v be_v a_o great_a stop_n to_o your_o have_v of_o the_o joy_n and_o comfort_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o

very_a great_a hindrance_n to_o this_o grace_n of_o assurance_n this_o i_o lay_v down_o only_o as_o a_o natural_a remedy_n second_o a_o mind_n fill_v with_o worldly_a care_n and_o run_v into_o

for_o believer_n that_o the_o strong_a christian_n in_o the_o faith_n have_v have_v great_a defect_n that_o have_v attend_v their_o grace_n thus_o have_v finish_v these_o seven_o comfortable_a conclusion_n because_o i_o will_v have_v no_o delude_a sinner_n nuzzle_v up_o in_o presumptuous_a persuasion_n of_o his_o own_o blessedness_n when_o he_o be_v a_o curse_a man_n and_o design_v for_o hell_n i_o have_v two_o or_o three_o sad_a conclusion_n to_o lay_v down_o for_o all_o you_o that_o harbour_v groundless_a and_o presumptuous_a persuasion_n of_o your_o effectual_a call_n when_o you_o be_v not_o as_o first_o you_o that_o nourish_v presumptuous_a persuasion_n of_o your_o effectual_a call_n when_o you_o be_v not_o take_v this_o conclusion_n to_o dread_v your_o heart_n that_o it_o be_v likely_a you_o shall_v never_o be_v effectual_o call_v by_o jesus_n christ_n there_o be_v no_o man_n so_o unlikely_a to_o be_v true_o call_v by_o christ_n as_o that_o man_n that_o think_v he_o be_v call_v when_o he_o be_v not_o matth._n 9_o i_o come_v not_o to_o call_v the_o righteous_a but_o sinner_n to_o repentance_n righteous_a man_n i.e._n that_o think_v they_o be_v righteous_a and_o in_o their_o own_o eye_n think_v they_o have_v grace_n and_o be_v as_o good_a as_o the_o best_a i_o come_v not_o say_v christ_n to_o call_v they_o but_o sinner_n i.e._n sinner_n that_o see_v their_o sin_n and_o see_v their_o need_n of_o a_o saviour_n and_o be_v sensible_a of_o their_o lose_a and_o undo_v condition_n without_o christ_n christ_n come_v to_o save_v they_o and_o to_o call_v they_o to_o repentance_n of_o all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n you_o be_v most_o unlikely_a to_o be_v call_v that_o nourish_v ungrounded_a persuasion_n of_o your_o effectual_a call_n second_o whilst_o you_o live_v in_o this_o world_n you_o be_v mere_a stranger_n to_o that_o inward_a and_o spiritual_a joy_n which_o every_o true_a believer_n feel_v and_o find_v by_o jesus_n christ_n you_o do_v not_o intermeddle_v with_o those_o inward_a solace_n and_o sweet_a enjoyment_n of_o heart_n which_o every_o sincere_a believer_n have_v in_o jesus_n christ_n a_o man_n that_o have_v assurance_n upon_o good_a ground_n he_o be_v so_o fill_v with_o joy_n that_o it_o will_v bear_v he_o up_o against_o all_o the_o suffering_n and_o sorrow_n he_o may_v meet_v with_o here_o in_o the_o world_n he_o that_o have_v assurance_n no_o suffering_n can_v daunt_v he_o as_o adolphus_n clarebachius_n when_o he_o be_v burn_v at_o the_o stake_n he_o be_v so_o fill_v with_o the_o assurance_n of_o god_n love_n that_o he_o say_v of_o himself_o i_o think_v in_o my_o heart_n there_o be_v not_o a_o merry_a heart_n in_o the_o world_n then_o i_o be_v and_o so_o another_o martyr_n burn_v at_o the_o stake_n say_v i_o taste_v as_o much_o sweetness_n and_o find_v as_o much_o ease_n now_o i_o be_o in_o the_o flame_n as_o if_o i_o lie_v upon_o a_o bed_n of_o rose_n the_o fullness_n of_o his_o joy_n in_o the_o assurance_n of_o god_n love_n make_v he_o willing_o undergo_v any_o torment_n mr._n sanders_n be_v in_o prison_n till_o he_o be_v in_o prison_n bainam_n say_v when_o he_o be_v in_o the_o fire_n i_o feel_v no_o more_o than_o if_o i_o be_v in_o a_o bed_n of_o down_o whereas_o thou_o that_o harbour_v false_a persuasion_n thy_o hope_n will_v shrink_v when_o thou_o come_v to_o suffer_v like_o cloth_n not_o well_o weave_v on_o a_o rainy_a day_n thy_o delusion_n will_v never_o bear_v up_o thy_o spirit_n to_o so_o high_a a_o pitch_n as_o these_o be_v this_o be_v thy_o misery_n thou_o will_v never_o have_v that_o sweet_a peace_n and_o rejoice_v in_o thy_o heart_n believer_n have_v who_o be_v assure_v upon_o scripture_n ground_n three_o take_v this_o for_o thy_o dread_n that_o thou_o will_v be_v throw_v into_o hell_n before_o thou_o be_v aware_a it_o be_v the_o speech_n of_o mr._n bolton_n that_o man_n that_o take_v up_o a_o false_a persuasion_n of_o his_o effectual_a call_n when_o he_o be_v not_o he_o be_v like_a unto_o a_o man_n that_o be_v in_o a_o pleasant_a dream_n who_o dream_v he_o be_v a_o king_n and_o have_v a_o kingdom_n and_o have_v treasure_n full_a of_o silver_n and_o gold_n yet_o when_o he_o awake_v behold_v the_o man_n have_v nothing_o he_o compare_v he_o likewise_o to_o a_o man_n that_o be_v asleep_a upon_o the_o mast_n of_o a_o ship_n he_o be_v in_o a_o golden_a

tumble_v into_o the_o ocean_n and_o drown_v it_o be_v so_o with_o many_o man_n who_o nourish_v golden_a dream_n and_o hope_n that_o heaven_n be_v they_o and_o christ_n they_o when_o as_o alas_o they_o be_v tumble_v and_o throw_v into_o hell_n before_o they_o be_v aware_a and_o this_o shall_v be_v a_o dreadful_a meditation_n to_o thy_o heart_n that_o harbour_v presumptuous_a persuasion_n of_o thy_o effectual_a call_n when_o thou_o be_v not_o thus_o i_o have_v do_v in_o eleven_o sermon_n with_o this_o doctrine_n touch_v effectual_a calling_n i_o pass_v now_o to_o the_o three_o and_o last_o point_n draw_v from_o these_o word_n and_o that_o be_v that_o christian_n ought_v to_o put_v forth_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o diligence_n to_o make_v this_o sure_a to_o their_o soul_n that_o they_o be_v eternal_o elect_v by_o god_n to_o life_n and_o salvation_n give_v diligence_n to_o make_v your_o call_n and_o election_n sure_a there_o be_v many_o profitable_a point_n to_o be_v handle_v in_o the_o dispatch_n of_o this_o doctrine_n i_o shall_v only_o in_o this_o remnant_n of_o time_n prosecute_v a_o few_o and_o first_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o what_o rlection_n be_v second_o whether_o a_o man_n may_v be_v sure_a of_o his_o own_o election_n see_v election_n be_v a_o act_n from_o eternity_n how_o can_v a_o man_n be_v sure_a of_o that_o which_o be_v do_v in_o god_n council_n before_o we_o have_v a_o be_v three_o by_o what_o discovery_n may_v a_o man_n infallible_o judge_v that_o he_o be_v elect_v in_o the_o discussion_n of_o this_o doctrine_n i_o begin_v with_o the_o first_o what_o election_n be_v which_o that_o you_o may_v know_v i_o shall_v lay_v down_o this_o brief_a description_n of_o it_o election_n be_v a_o eternal_a decree_n or_o purpose_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o have_v free_o choose_v out_o of_o the_o mass_n of_o mankind_n a_o small_a eompany_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o shall_v come_v to_o everlasting_a life_n and_o salvation_n by_o jesus_n christ_n this_o be_v election_n and_o here_o in_o this_o description_n there_o be_v these_o thing_n to_o be_v take_v notice_n of_o first_o i_o call_v it_o a_o eternal_a purpose_n because_o though_o a_o man_n be_v not_o justify_v from_o eternity_n yet_o he_o be_v elect_v from_o eternity_n god_n from_o eternity_n have_v a_o purpose_n that_o man_n shall_v be_v justify_v and_o shall_v be_v call_v and_o shall_v be_v save_v election_n be_v from_o eternity_n though_o vocation_n justification_n and_o glorification_n be_v not_o so_o hence_o you_o read_v in_o scripture_n when_o it_o speak_v of_o election_n eph._n 1.4_o he_o have_v elect_v we_o in_o christ_n before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n but_o it_o be_v never_o say_v so_o of_o justification_n god_n have_v a_o purpose_n to_o make_v we_o happy_a and_o a_o purpose_n to_o call_v we_o in_o time_n and_o a_o purpose_n to_o justify_v we_o from_o eternity_n though_o the_o act_n of_o this_o purpose_n be_v in_o due_a time_n fulfil_v second_o i_o call_v it_o a_o purpose_n whereby_o he_o do_v free_o choose_v and_o this_o i_o do_v in_o opposition_n to_o that_o papistical_a tenet_n that_o god_n do_v predestinate_a or_o elect_a man_n to_o salvation_n upon_o the_o foresight_n of_o good_a work_n a_o most_o abominable_a opinion_n and_o take_v off_o the_o freeness_n of_o this_o act_n of_o god_n election_n 2_o tim._n 1.9_o not_o according_a to_o our_o work_n but_o according_a to_o his_o own_o purpose_n and_o grace_n so_o i_o say_v three_o whereby_o god_n do_v free_o choose_v out_o of_o the_o mass_n of_o mankind_n a_o few_o to_o obtain_v life_n and_o salvation_n in_o opposition_n to_o those_o that_o hold_v for_o universal_a redemption_n and_o universal_a grace_n as_o origen_n and_o from_o he_o many_o more_o have_v be_v taint_v with_o this_o error_n to_o hold_v election_n universal_a and_o so_o many_o of_o the_o papist_n now_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o many_o be_v call_v but_o few_o be_v choose_v election_n signify_v a_o choice_n now_o a_o choice_n
