typical_a worship_n perform_v by_o the_o jew_n in_o one_o place_n all_o true_a worshipper_n in_o every_o place_n shall_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n for_o which_o he_o give_v two_o reason_n first_o that_o god_n require_v such_o worship_n second_o that_o this_o be_v most_o agreeable_a and_o please_a to_o his_o spiritual_a nature_n as_o for_o these_o two_o property_n of_o worship_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n they_o must_v be_v take_v in_o opposition_n to_o the_o property_n of_o the_o former_a worship_n and_o so_o they_o come_v to_o one_o in_o substance_n that_o in_o stead_n of_o external_a ceremony_n which_o be_v call_v carnal_a heb._n 7.16_o and_o 9.10_o and_o shadow_n heb._n 10.1_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v a_o spiritual_a worship_n and_o the_o truth_n of_o what_o be_v represent_v by_o these_o shadow_n as_o rom._n 12.1_o heb._n 13.15_o 16._o and_o this_o agree_v well_o with_o the_o reason_n subjoin_v for_o however_o the_o lord_n do_v require_v and_o be_v please_v with_o these_o external_a form_n in_o the_o infancy_n of_o the_o church_n yet_o he_o never_o do_v accept_v of_o they_o save_v in_o so_o far_o as_o they_o lead_v to_o this_o which_o be_v so_o agreeable_a to_o his_o nature_n and_o be_v not_o rest_v on_o by_o the_o worshipper_n but_o we_o may_v further_o extend_v these_o property_n not_o only_o to_o the_o matter_n of_o worship_n but_o to_o the_o manner_n of_o it_o also_o that_o the_o lord_n who_o be_v a_o spirit_n do_v require_v that_o lawful_a worship_n shall_v be_v perform_v in_o spirit_n as_o opposite_a to_o a_o formal_a way_n of_o worship_n and_o in_o truth_n as_o opposite_a to_o hypocrisy_n not_o that_o god_n do_v approve_v of_o the_o want_n of_o these_o before_o but_o that_o by_o the_o removal_n of_o these_o external_a rite_n wherewith_o worshipper_n be_v much_o take_v up_o and_o which_o the_o best_a see_v not_o clear_o enough_o through_o he_o be_v to_o discover_v this_o way_n more_o full_o and_o make_v they_o more_o free_a to_o attend_v it_o and_o by_o pour_v out_o of_o his_o spirit_n he_o be_v to_o work_v it_o more_o general_o doctr._fw-la 1._o the_o correction_n and_o reformation_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n be_v reserve_v for_o the_o day_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o be_v bring_v about_o by_o christ_n therefore_o say_v he_o the_o hour_n come_v and_o now_o be_v when_o this_o change_n shall_v be_v he_o say_v now_o be_v either_o because_o it_o be_v instant_o approach_v at_o his_o death_n or_o because_o he_o be_v even_o now_o begin_v this_o reformation_n by_o his_o ministry_n 2._o they_o who_o profess_v themselves_o worshipper_n of_o the_o true_a god_n aught_o to_o perform_v it_o with_o humble_a and_o affectionate_a reverence_n and_o with_o subjection_n and_o submission_n to_o he_o

down_o at_o their_o master_n foot_n 3._o albeit_o all_o who_o profess_v the_o true_a god_n and_o be_v not_o avow_v atheist_n will_v have_v some_o sort_n of_o worship_n yet_o all_o of_o they_o will_v not_o be_v find_v true_a and_o approven_v worshipper_n either_o for_o matter_n or_o manner_n therefore_o be_v some_o call_v true_a worshipper_n by_o way_n of_o distinction_n from_o other_o 4._o the_o true_a worship_n of_o god_n under_o the_o gospel_n do_v not_o consist_v in_o the_o external_a pomp_n of_o ceremony_n and_o observation_n but_o be_v spiritual_a simple_a and_o substantial_a for_o they_o shall_v worship_v the_o father_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n not_o in_o carnal_a shadow_n which_o if_o being_n god_n own_o ordinance_n yet_o do_v take_v up_o worshipper_n so_o through_o their_o own_o weakness_n as_o ofttimes_o to_o keep_v they_o from_o mind_v this_o spiritual_a worship_n how_o much_o more_o may_v it_o be_v expect_v that_o the_o more_o external_a pomp_n there_o be_v of_o man_n devise_v there_o will_v be_v the_o less_o spiritual_a truth_n 5._o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o make_v a_o approven_v worshipper_n that_o they_o do_v not_o multiply_v rite_n and_o ceremony_n but_o their_o worship_n must_v be_v chief_o inward_a flow_v from_o grace_n engage_v the_o heart_n in_o god_n service_n and_o from_o the_o breathe_n and_o influence_n of_o the_o spirit_n not_o rest_v on_o a_o external_a form_n of_o lawful_a worship_n or_o any_o bodily_a exercise_n about_o it_o so_o much_o also_o be_v we_o teach_v from_o this_o that_o worship_n must_v be_v spirit_n or_o spiritual_a for_o the_o manner_n of_o performance_n as_o well_o as_o for_o its_o nature_n in_o itself_o 6._o god_n require_v also_o in_o a_o worshipper_n that_o with_o avoid_v of_o formality_n which_o be_v but_o a_o deceitful_a hypocritical_a show_n of_o worship_n he_o study_v sincerity_n and_o straightness_n of_o heart_n not_o deal_v negligent_o or_o for_o by-end_n in_o god_n service_n for_o worship_n must_v be_v in_o truth_n 7_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n will_v and_o appointment_n alone_o that_o can_v give_v a_o be_v to_o true_a worship_n and_o to_o this_o must_v all_o our_o reason_n about_o this_o matter_n be_v subject_a and_o therefore_o his_o enjoin_v of_o spiritual_a substantial_a and_o sincere_a worship_n shall_v commend_v it_o to_o his_o people_n so_o much_o do_v the_o
