what_o it_o be_v to_o fear_n god_n and_o we_o shall_v second_o show_v you_o that_o a_o man_n that_o true_o fear_v god_n will_v do_v as_o nehemiah_n do_v neither_o can_v he_o do_v as_o other_o do_v three_o we_o shall_v show_v you_o what_o there_o be_v in_o this_o fear_n of_o god_n that_o do_v lay_v such_o a_o balance_n upon_o man_n heart_n that_o they_o can_v do_v as_o other_o do_v four_o we_o shall_v answer_v this_o question_n whether_o a_o man_n that_o fear_v god_n may_v not_o sometime_o do_v as_o other_o do_v five_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o the_o issue_n and_o consequence_n of_o this_o truth_n and_o then_o i_o shall_v make_v some_o application_n first_o if_o you_o ask_v what_o this_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v i_o answer_v in_o the_o general_a that_o it_o be_v a_o passion_n of_o the_o soul_n whereby_o a_o man_n do_v flee_v from_o eminent_a evil_n but_o now_o further_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o what_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v i_o say_v that_o it_o be_v twofold_a a_o servile_a fear_n and_o a_o silial_a fear_n a_o servile_a fear_n whereby_o a_o man_n fear_v god_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o hell_n or_o judgement_n or_o because_o of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n but_o now_o a_o fear_n of_o god_n not_o only_o because_o of_o his_o judgement_n but_o because_o of_o displease_v of_o he_o because_o of_o his_o love_n because_o we_o will_v not_o offend_v this_o be_v a_o silial_a fear_n to_o fear_v he_o because_o we_o will_v not_o do_v contrary_a to_o his_o command_n and_o thus_o do_v abraham_n when_o he_o will_v have_v offer_v up_o his_o son_n isaac_n for_o say_v god_n gen._n 22.12_o by_o this_o i_o know_v thou_o fear_v god_n because_o he_o obey_v his_o command_n and_o be_v afraid_a to_o do_v contrary_a second_o this_o fear_n of_o god_n this_o filial_a fear_n be_v not_o only_o because_o of_o his_o love_n but_o of_o his_o love_n in_o conjunction_n with_o his_o greatness_n also_o the_o great_a a_o man_n be_v the_o more_o we_o fear_v he_o and_o the_o near_o he_o be_v in_o relation_n to_o we_o the_o more_o we_o reverence_v he_o yet_o further_o as_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o conjunction_n with_o his_o greatness_n call_v for_o our_o fear_n so_o also_o three_o the_o word_n and_o work_n of_o god_n call_v for_o our_o fear_n for_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v mighty_a and_o his_o work_n be_v wonderful_a for_o it_o be_v say_v of_o god_n that_o he_o be_v fearful_a in_o praise_n work_v wonder_n thus_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o what_o this_o filial_a fear_n be_v i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o fear_n whereby_o we_o fear_v he_o because_o of_o his_o love_n because_o of_o his_o greatness_n and_o because_o of_o his_o word_n and_o work_n that_o be_v the_o first_o second_o a_o man_n that_o true_o fear_v god_n can_v do_v as_o other_o can_v do_v for_o in_o the_o text_n we_o find_v that_o nehemiah_n have_v a_o opportunity_n in_o his_o hand_n to_o make_v himself_o to_o raise_v himself_o to_o make_v himself_o rich_a as_o to_o outward_a thing_n but_o you_o see_v what_o he_o say_v but_o so_o do_v not_o i_o as_o other_o do_v because_o i_o fear_v god_n where_o the_o true_a fear_n of_o god_n be_v plant_v in_o a_o man_n heart_n he_o can_v he_o will_v not_o do_v as_o other_o man_n can_v and_o will_v do_v i_o shall_v clear_v this_o to_o you_o by_o instance_v in_o some_o particular_n first_o he_o that_o fear_v god_n can_v do_v as_o other_o do_v in_o the_o matter_n of_o his_o choice_n you_o know_v how_o it_o be_v with_o the_o damsel_n the_o daughter_n of_o herodias_n mat._n 14.7_o 8._o when_o she_o have_v dance_v before_o herod_n he_o be_v so_o delight_v with_o

and_o her_o choice_n be_v bad_a not_o have_v the_o fear_n of_o god_n in_o her_o heart_n but_o when_o fsther_n have_v her_o choice_n she_o choose_v the_o contrary_a for_o she_o choose_v the_o freedom_n of_o john_n the_o baptist_n in_o the_o freedom_n of_o the_o jew_n she_o act_v not_o as_o the_o other_o do_v because_o of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n can_v do_v as_o other_o do_v i_o may_v instance_n in_o moses_n also_o he_o will_v not_o do_v as_o other_o for_o say_v he_o i_o will_v choose_v rather_o to_o suffer_v affliction_n with_o the_o people_n of_o god_n than_o to_o enjoy_v the_o pleasure_n of_o sin_n for_o a_o season_n heb._n 11.25_o and_o why_o do_v he_o thus_o but_o only_o because_o of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n second_o as_o they_o that_o fear_v god_n will_v not_o do_v as_o other_o do_v in_o the_o matter_n of_o their_o choice_n so_o neither_o will_v they_o do_v as_o other_o do_v in_o the_o matter_n of_o worship_n for_o what_o say_v joshua_n as_o for_o i_o and_o my_o household_n we_o will_v serve_v the_o lord_n josh_n 24.15_o do_v you_o what_o you_o please_v therefore_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o serve_v he_o in_o sincerity_n and_o truth_n and_o put_v away_o the_o god_n which_o your_o father_n serve_v or_o the_o god_n of_o amorites_n in_o who_o land_n you_o dwell_v but_o as_o for_o i_o and_o my_o household_n we_o will_v serve_v the_o

do_v not_o the_o other_o five_o they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n can_v do_v as_o other_o do_v in_o the_o matter_n of_o affliction_n a_o man_n that_o fear_v the_o lord_n can_v love_v god_n in_o

he_o will_v in_o hell_n fire_n thus_o now_o if_o you_o will_v have_v your_o fear_n strengthen_v then_o study_v these_o thing_n consider_v and_o meditate_v upon_o these_o thing_n but_o yet_o a_o
