with_o christ_n for_o they_o do_v continual_o groan_v under_o this_o corruption_n as_o under_o a_o most_o heavy_a burden_n and_o fetch_v many_o a_o sorrowful_a sigh_n to_o think_v of_o it_o and_o be_v ever_o complain_v of_o it_o as_o of_o a_o most_o deadly_a enemy_n of_o they_o and_o all_o this_o we_o many_o clear_o see_v as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o glass_n in_o the_o example_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n himself_o that_o most_o rare_a and_o excellent_a servant_n of_o god_n who_o take_v up_o most_o pitiful_a and_o lamentable_a complaint_n of_o this_o poison_a and_o infect_a nature_n i_o know_v say_v he_o that_o in_o i_o that_o be_v in_o my_o flesh_n dwell_v no_o good_a thing_n i_o allow_v not_o that_o which_o i_o do_v 15_o for_o what_o i_o will_v that_o i_o do_v not_o but_o what_o i_o hate_v that_o i_o do_v i_o do_v not_o the_o good_a thing_n which_o i_o will_v but_o the_o evil_n which_o i_o will_v not_o that_o do_v i._o now_o if_o i_o do_v that_o i_o will_v not_o it_o be_v no_o more_o i_o that_o do_v it_o but_o the_o sin_n that_o dwell_v in_o i_o i_o find_v then_o that_o when_o i_o will_v do_v good_a i_o be_o thus_o yoke_v that_o evil_n be_v present_a with_o i_o for_o i_o delight_v in_o the_o law_n of_o god_n concern_v the_o inner_a man_n but_o i_o see_v a_o other_o law_n in_o my_o member_n rebel_a against_o the_o law_n of_o my_o mind_n and_o lead_v i_o captive_a unto_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n which_o be_v in_o my_o member_n and_o in_o the_o end_n he_o break_v out_o into_o a_o outcry_n say_v o_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o who_o shall_v deliver_v i_o from_o the_o body_n of_o this_o death_n father_n do_v not_o ungodly_a and_o unregenerate_a man_n likewise_o mourn_v under_o this_o corruption_n and_o complain_v much_o of_o it_o child_n no_o you_o shall_v seldom_o or_o never_o hear_v they_o complain_v of_o it_o or_o mourn_v under_o it_o for_o they_o walk_v after_o the_o foolish_a and_o fulfil_v the_o lust_n thereof_o with_o all_o delight_n and_o greediness_n be_v whole_o carry_v after_o the_o swing_n and_o sway_n of_o their_o own_o corrupt_a affection_n and_o desire_n father_n what_o be_v the_o cause_n hereof_o child_n because_o they_o be_v forsake_v of_o god_n and_o give_v over_o to_o a_o great_a blindness_n of_o heart_n and_o hardness_n of_o affection_n so_o that_o though_o their_o misery_n be_v exceed_a great_a yet_o they_o have_v little_a sight_n and_o less_o feel_v of_o it_o father_n do_v you_o not_o think_v that_o a_o man_n in_o the_o state_n of_o nature_n can_v so_o feel_v his_o misery_n child_n sure_o it_o be_v that_o a_o mere_a natural_a man_n can_v have_v no_o true_a sight_n or_o lively_o feel_v of_o his_o misery_n or_o any_o sound_n desire_v to_o come_v out_o of_o it_o but_o do_v great_o please_v himself_o in_o it_o and_o be_v loath_a to_o come_v out_o of_o it_o for_o the_o apostle_n say_v plain_o that_o the_o natural_a man_n perceive_v not_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o they_o be_v foolishness_n unto_o he_o 14_o neither_o can_v he_o know_v they_o because_o they_o be_v spiritual_o discern_v father_n but_o may_v not_o a_o natural_a and_o unregenerate_a man_n have_v the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o the_o understanding_n of_o his_o will_n and_o so_o consequent_o a_o sight_n of_o heavenly_a thing_n child_n yes_o a_o natural_a man_n have_v a_o kind_n of_o knowledge_n and_o understanding_n of_o god_n and_o of_o his_o will_n but_o it_o be_v only_o a_o confuse_a and_o brain_a knowledge_n and_o a_o literal_a understanding_n of_o the_o scripture_n for_o he_o can_v possible_o have_v the_o lively_a and_o save_a knowledge_n which_o be_v join_v with_o quicken_a grace_n nor_o that_o sound_a understanding_n and_o sight_n which_o do_v lineal_o descend_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n father_n may_v not_o man_n in_o the_o state_n of_o nature_n have_v feel_v also_o of_o god_n and_o of_o heavenly_a thing_n child_n the_o scripture_n do_v teach_v that_o a_o reprobate_n may_v have_v a_o kind_n both_o of_o sight_n and_o feel_v of_o heavenly_a thing_n for_o he_o may_v be_v lighten_v 4._o and_o taste_v of_o the_o heavenly_a gift_n and_o of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o world_n to_o come_v and_o also_o taste_v of_o the_o good_a word_n of_o god_n and_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o his_o sight_n and_o taste_v and_o feel_v can_v never_o be_v sound_a and_o good_a before_o regeneration_n so_o then_o all_o the_o cunning_n be_v to_o know_v whether_o the_o work_n of_o grace_n in_o a_o man_n soul_n be_v sound_n and_o currant_n or_o no_o for_o unregenerate_a man_n be_v much_o deceive_v with_o a_o false_a light_n for_o they_o do_v blind_o imagine_v y_z t_o because_o they_o have_v some_o kind_n of_o sight_n and_o feel_v of_o heavenly_a thing_n therefore_o they_o have_v all_o and_o the_o same_o that_o be_v in_o every_o elect_v father_n what_o difference_n then_o do_v you_o make_v betwixt_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o elect_a &_o the_o reprobate_a child_n the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o reprobate_n do_v puff_n up_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o elect_a do_v humble_a the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o reprobate_n be_v general_a and_o confuse_a the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o elect_a be_v particular_a and_o certain_a the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o reprobate_n be_v only_o literal_a and_o historical_a the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o elect_a be_v spiritual_a and_o experimental_a the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o reprobate_n be_v speculative_a the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o elect_a be_v practive_a that_o be_v join_v with_o obedience_n for_o howsoever_o a_o natural_a and_o unregenerate_a man_n may_v know_v much_o yet_o have_v he_o not_o nor_o can_v have_v any_o power_n to_o do_v i_o mean_v cheerful_o and_o aright_o till_o his_o heart_n be_v enlarge_v by_o christ_n &_o his_o will_n renew_v by_o grace_n the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o reprobate_n be_v like_o y_z e_z knowledge_n which_o a_o mathematical_a geographer_n have_v of_o the_o earth_n and_o all_o place_n in_o it_o which_o be_v but_o a_o general_a notion_n and_o speculative_a comprehension_n of_o they_o but_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o elect_a be_v like_o the_o knowledge_n of_o a_o traveller_n which_o can_v speak_v of_o experience_n and_o feel_v and_o have_v be_v there_o and_o see_v and_o know_v the_o particular_n father_n now_o tell_v i_o further_o what_o difference_n you_o make_v betwixt_o the_o feel_n of_o the_o elect_a and_o the_o reprobate_a child_n the_o reprobate_n have_v a_o kind_n of_o natural_a feel_v of_o sin_n but_o it_o be_v without_o the_o true_a hatred_n of_o it_o for_o in_o his_o heart_n he_o love_v it_o the_o elect_a do_v so_o feel_v his_o sin_n that_o he_o hate_v it_o take_v council_n against_o it_o and_o pray_v against_o it_o the_o feel_v of_o the_o reprobate_n be_v from_o natural_a faculty_n for_o he_o be_v not_o as_o a_o block_n without_o all_o sense_n the_o feel_v of_o the_o elect_a be_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n the_o feel_v of_o the_o reprobate_n arise_v from_o natural_a fear_n &_o diffidence_n for_o man_n natural_o feel_v and_o fear_v danger_n so_o the_o reprobate_n feel_v and_o fear_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n the_o accusation_n of_o their_o conscience_n the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n hell_n fire_n etc._n etc._n but_o have_v no_o true_a feel_v of_o god_n love_n towards_o they_o but_o the_o elect_n have_v a_o lively_a feel_v of_o god_n love_n towards_o they_o the_o reprobate_n have_v sometime_o at_o start_n a_o feel_v of_o spiritual_a joy_n but_o it_o vanish_v incontinent_o the_o feel_v of_o the_o joy_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o elect_a be_v more_o last_a and_o often_o father_n as_o you_o have_v tell_v i_o much_o of_o man_n misery_n in_o nature_n so_o tell_v i_o yet_o one_o point_n further_o whether_o a_o man_n in_o the_o state_n of_o nature_n can_v do_v any_o thing_n that_o please_v god_n child_n a_o mere_a natural_a man_n can_v please_v god_n in_o any_o thing_n he_o do_v but_o even_o his_o best_a action_n be_v turn_v into_o sin_n 8._o for_o the_o apostle_n say_v they_o which_o be_v in_o the_o flesh_n can_v please_v god._n and_o again_o he_o say_v to_o they_o that_o be_v defile_v and_o unbéeléeve_v be_v nothing_o pure_a but_o ever_o their_o mind_n and_o conscience_n be_v defile_v 15._o father_n how_o long_o do_v a_o man_n continue_v in_o this_o woeful_a and_o curse_a estate_n wherein_o he_o be_v bear_v child_n till_o he_o be_v regenerate_v and_o bear_v again_o for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n affirm_v that_o except_o a_o man_n be_v bear_v again_o he_o can_v see_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n 3_o father_n by_o what_o mean_n do_v a_o man_n come_v to_o be_v regenerate_v and_o bear_v again_o child_n by_o the_o outward_a
