dew_n of_o heaven_n never_o sink_v so_o deep_a as_o to_o come_v to_o that_o root_n therefore_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o 1._o joh._n 3._o a_o man_n that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n can_v sin_v why_o because_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n abide_v in_o he_o he_o have_v a_o root_n in_o he_o so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n a_o hypocrite_n he_o can_v do_v nothing_o to_o purpose_n because_o there_o be_v a_o

wicked_a man_n in_o time_n may_v have_v some_o impression_n upon_o his_o soul_n of_o some_o one_o thing_n of_o god_n or_o some_o few_o thing_n as_o for_o instance_n judas_n have_v a_o impression_n

of_o one_o thing_n but_o now_o a_o saint_n he_o have_v impression_n of_o all_o that_o be_v in_o god_n that_o be_v there_o be_v nothing_o in_o god_n but_o he_o have_v a_o heart_n to_o answer_v it_o he_o have_v as_o it_o be_v to_o speak_v with_o reverence_n a_o copy_n of_o god_n write_v on_o his_o soul_n he_o have_v a_o impression_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n of_o delight_n and_o trust_v in_o god_n and_o the_o like_a this_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o a_o saint_n of_o god_n and_o a_o hypocrite_n therefore_o in_o exod._n 34._o when_o

not_o that_o we_o be_v upon_o that_o the_o saint_n have_v a_o peculiar_a privilege_n above_o all_o other_o that_o they_o can_v even_o in_o this_o world_n see_v god_n they_o can_v see_v god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n i_o do_v open_v this_o and_o prove_v it_o and_o show_v you_o the_o last_o time_n how_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n you_o may_v know_v whether_o you_o have_v ever_o see_v god_n in_o this_o manner_n whether_o god_n have_v ever_o bestow_v this_o glorious_a privilege_n upon_o any_o of_o you_o three_o way_n i_o take_v to_o show_v it_o to_o you_o the_o first_o be_v by_o your_o apprehension_n of_o god_n the_o second_o be_v by_o the_o impression_n that_o those_o apprehension_n of_o god_n have_v upon_o you_o the_o three_o thing_n which_o i_o be_o now_o to_o come_v to_o be_v by_o the_o expression_n of_o they_o or_o by_o their_o effect_n if_o you_o will_v know_v whether_o you_o have_v see_v god_n aright_o be_v 3_o by_o the_o expression_n of_o they_o which_o be_v or_o no_o i_o say_v you_o may_v know_v it_o by_o the_o expression_n of_o it_o how_o do_v it_o set_v itself_o forth_o in_o thou_o it_o work_v something_o upon_o thou_o and_o that_o vent_v and_o show_v itself_o some_o way_n in_o thy_o heart_n and_o life_n therefore_o i_o find_v in_o scripture_n especial_o in_o the_o epistle_n of_o john_n where_o much_o be_v say_v of_o see_v god_n he_o bring_v the_o saint_n usual_o to_o know_v the_o sight_n of_o god_n by_o outward_a expression_n because_o though_o it_o be_v clear_a as_o i_o say_v yet_o it_o be_v so_o small_a that_o a_o st._n can_v always_o see_v it_o unless_o he_o consider_v the_o working_n of_o it_o also_o upon_o his_o heart_n and_o life_n as_o well_o as_o his_o single_a apprehension_n therefore_o say_v he_o in_o one_o place_n by_o this_o you_o shall_v know_v that_o you_o have_v see_v god_n if_o you_o confess_v christ_n and_o in_o another_o place_n if_o you_o love_v the_o brethren_n etc._n etc._n now_o there_o be_v these_o four_o or_o five_o clear_a thing_n in_o scripture_n that_o demonstrate_v a_o man_n to_o be_v one_o that_o have_v see_v god_n the_o first_o be_v this_o if_o thou_o have_v see_v god_n certain_o the_o lord_n have_v

in_o this_o manner_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o the_o save_a grace_n that_o the_o saint_n have_v and_o that_o the_o saint_n only_o have_v nay_o far_o he_o may_v have_v many_o act_n of_o

as_o a_o bulrush_n for_o a_o day_n he_o may_v keep_v monthly_a fast_n as_o constant_o as_o any_o and_o be_v sorrowful_a and_o heavy_a and_o yet_o he_o have_v not_o true_a humiliation_n but_o as_o

for_o even_o then_o and_o for_o ever_o in_o hell_n the_o wicked_a will_v be_v grumble_a against_o god_n and_o a_o man_n be_v not_o say_v to_o be_v humble_v true_o till_o he_o submit_v to_o god_n in_o

to_o conclude_v do_v not_o wonder_v i_o say_v cease_v worse_o not_o to_o wonder_v that_o the_o wicked_a grow_v worse_o wonder_v for_o indeed_o a_o man_n can_v choose_v but_o wonder_n but_o endeavour_v

whosoever_o he_o be_v that_o be_v yonder_o that_o be_v a_o wretched_a man_n that_o even_o the_o boy_n in_o the_o street_n be_v ready_a to_o shout_n at_o and_o throw_v stone_n at_o yet_o i_o have_v be_v worse_o than_o he_o belove_a it_o be_v a_o strange_a thing_n that_o paul_n shall_v say_v that_o he_o be_v blameless_a for_o holiness_n such_o as_o it_o be_v and_o yet_o that_o he_o shall_v say_v after_o i_o be_o the_o worst_a of_o sinner_n the_o chief_a of_o sinner_n true_o one_o can_v say_v i_o have_v be_v in_o every_o particular_a act_n as_o bad_a or_o worse_o than_o any_o other_o but_o yet_o in_o some_o sense_n or_o other_o in_o some_o respect_n or_o other_o any_o man_n may_v say_v he_o be_v the_o chief_a of_o sinner_n paul_n say_v so_o in_o regard_n of_o his_o persecution_n of_o the_o church_n and_o though_o otherwise_o he_o be_v honest_a and_o better_a than_o most_o other_o man_n yet_o there_o he_o account_v himself_o the_o worst_a of_o sinner_n that_o be_v one_o thing_n that_o make_v a_o saint_n to_o be_v mild_a and_o affable_a in_o his_o carriage_n to_o sinner_n because_o he_o have_v be_v as_o bad_a or_o worse_o than_o they_o and_o second_o in_o some_o respect_n a_o humble_a heart_n still_o 2._o he_o think_v himself_o as_o bad_a still_o he_o think_v himself_o to_o be_v worse_o still_o true_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o a_o lesson_n that_o it_o may_v be_v be_v a_o mystery_n to_o some_o of_o you_o take_v the_o most_o glorious_a saint_n that_o be_v and_o they_o will_v tell_v you_o that_o all_o the_o good_a that_o be_v in_o they_o it_o be_v rather_o passive_a then_o active_a that_o be_v he_o will_v say_v i_o be_o carry_v on_o by_o god_n mere_o and_o by_o his_o spirit_n it_o be_v god_n that_o do_v it_o i_o know_v not_o how_o nor_o why_o so_o that_o though_o god_n do_v work_v much_o good_a in_o they_o yet_o they_o see_v themselves_o passive_a and_o not_o active_a and_o they_o can_v say_v it_o be_v god_n that_o do_v it_o and_o not_o they_o and_o therefore_o when_o they_o look_v upon_o themselves_o in_o some_o respect_n they_o can_v put_v themselves_o below_o even_o the_o worst_a of_o sinner_n the_o vile_a of_o sinner_n and_o so_o we_o see_v paul_n in_o that_o place_n 1_o tim._n 1._o i_o be_o the_o chief_a of_o sinner_n say_v he_o and_o yet_o to_o i_o be_v more_o mercy_n show_v then_o to_o all_o man_n that_o i_o may_v be_v a_o pattern_n of_o god_n mercy_n to_o all_o man_n therefore_o i_o have_v receive_v more_o mercy_n and_o more_o riches_n of_o grace_n then_o any_o man_n and_o so_o a_o saint_n may_v say_v i_o have_v have_v more_o mercy_n than_o that_o man_n but_o i_o be_v passive_a in_o it_o and_o if_o god_n do_v work_v upon_o that_o man_n but_o half_o that_o which_o he_o have_v do_v on_o i_o he_o will_v have_v be_v far_o

not_o any_o thing_n in_o himself_o he_o 4._o the_o worst_a sinner_n may_v come_v to_o be_v as_o good_a as_o he_o four_o and_o last_o he_o consider_v that_o the_o vile_a sinner_n may_v be_v in_o god_n good_a time_n better_o than_o he_o remember_v these_o four_o rule_n that_o a_o humble_a heart_n have_v to_o bring_v himself_o to_o be_v affable_a and_o meek_a in_o his_o carriage_n to_o poor_a

all_o and_o give_v to_o the_o poor_a he_o will_v not_o do_v it_o but_o go_v away_o sorrowful_a the_o disciple_n come_v to_o christ_n cry_v out_o as_o it_o be_v and_o insult_v over_o he_o and_o say_v they_o master_n we_o have_v leave_v all_o and_o follow_v thou_o what_o shall_v we_o have_v as_o if_o they_o have_v say_v we_o see_v that_o yonder_o man_n be_v not_o so_o good_a as_o we_o he_o will_v
