church_n of_o god_n be_v never_o in_o a_o more_o glorious_a condition_n than_o it_o be_v at_o this_o day_n yet_o whatsoever_o they_o say_v he_o that_o do_v but_o right_o look_v at_o thing_n and_o make_v but_o a_o diligent_a scrutiny_n into_o the_o church_n condition_n may_v easy_o see_v and_o behold_v the_o church_n of_o god_n to_o be_v very_o low_a that_o the_o glory_n and_o the_o face_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n be_v never_o so_o blur_v as_o at_o this_o day_n and_o in_o these_o time_n wherein_o we_o live_v and_o we_o may_v say_v where_o be_v our_o glory_n become_v we_o may_v see_v our_o glory_n even_o stand_v on_o the_o threshold_n and_o ready_a to_o take_v her_o wing_n and_o fly_v away_o as_o a_o bird_n and_o our_o eye_n may_v behold_v it_o if_o god_n prevent_v it_o not_o for_o do_v we_o not_o see_v a_o cloud_n of_o trouble_n and_o sore_a affliction_n hang_v over_o our_o head_n ready_a to_o fall_v upon_o we_o in_o these_o part_n of_o the_o world_n and_o will_v certain_o fall_v if_o god_n out_o of_o his_o infinite_a mercy_n do_v not_o prevent_v it_o do_v we_o not_o behold_v profaneness_n and_o wickedness_n yea_o great_a wickedness_n to_o abound_v among_o we_o and_o that_o to_o appear_v also_o in_o the_o church_n and_o that_o do_v appear_v so_o much_o the_o more_o when_o the_o government_n of_o the_o church_n which_o shall_v keep_v out_o heresy_n and_o

these_o sin_n abound_v there_o we_o may_v judge_v that_o it_o be_v the_o church_n swoon_v if_o not_o the_o church_n die_v time_n the_o erroneous_a doctrine_n doctrine_n of_o devil_n which_o do_v so_o much_o abound_v in_o our_o day_n who_o do_v cast_v off_o the_o assembly_n of_o the_o true_a church_n and_o seduce_v the_o people_n to_o sinful_a practice_n labour_v to_o corrupt_v their_o judgement_n by_o unbottome_v they_o from_o the_o truth_n and_o new_a principling_n they_o with_o false_a opinion_n these_o be_v the_o thing_n do_v most_o hurt_v we_o this_o be_v that_o which_o trouble_v the_o

they_o begin_v the_o church_n of_o god_n may_v say_v they_o be_v never_o in_o a_o worse_a condition_n but_o in_o the_o handle_n of_o this_o particular_a that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n may_v not_o be_v too_o much_o cast_v down_o for_o see_v the_o calamity_n of_o the_o church_n i_o shall_v first_o lay_v down_o some_o caution_n 2._o i_o shall_v show_v you_o that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n have_v be_v afflict_v for_o the_o calamaty_n of_o the_o church_n 3._o to_o show_v you_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o sympathize_v with_o the_o church_n in_o her_o trouble_n and_o sinful_a trouble_n of_o mind_n 4._o to_o lay_v down_o some_o rule_n that_o notwithstanding_o the_o trouble_n of_o the_o church_n and_o people_n of_o god_n be_v many_o and_o great_a yet_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n not_o to_o be_v too_o much_o cast_v down_o first_o when_o i_o say_v that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v not_o to_o be_v too_o much_o trouble_v for_o the_o calamity_n of_o the_o church_n i_o do_v caution_n not_o intend_v by_o that_o to_o press_v you_o to_o a_o stoical_a insensibility_n and_o sottish_a stupidity_n of_o the_o church_n misery_n as_o you_o be_v not_o to_o be_v like_o stoic_n not_o to_o be_v trouble_v for_o the_o calamity_n of_o the_o church_n at_o all_o not_o to_o have_v any_o fellow-feeling_n in_o your_o brother_n misery_n you_o must_v not_o be_v of_o a_o indifferent_a galliolike_a spirit_n not_o to_o be_v cast_v down_o nor_o affect_v with_o the_o trouble_n of_o the_o church_n but_o i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o be_v affect_v with_o the_o afflict_a for_o the_o trouble_n of_o the_o church_n in_o measure_n in_o a_o holy_a sense_n and_o a_o holy_a humbleness_n of_o heart_n for_o the_o trouble_n of_o the_o church_n second_o when_o you_o do_v find_v such_o a_o sympathize_v and_o sensible_a fellow-feeling_n of_o the_o church_n misery_n you_o be_v to_o cherish_v and_o to_o stir_v up_o that_o in_o you_o and_o that_o you_o be_v not_o to_o check_v your_o heart_n for_o it_o for_o this_o be_v your_o duty_n and_o not_o your_o sin_n 1_o cor._n 12._o 26._o as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o body_n corporal_a and_o natural_a so_o it_o be_v with_o the_o body_n mystical_a and_o spiritual_a as_o in_o the_o 26._o body_n if_o the_o head_n be_v in_o pain_n all_o the_o body_n every_o member_n of_o the_o body_n be_v sensible_a of_o it_o so_o it_o be_v with_o the_o mystical_a body_n if_o one_o member_n be_v in_o pain_n and_o suffer_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o member_n be_v in_o trouble_n for_o it_o three_o you_o be_v to_o check_v those_o casting_n down_o and_o those_o trouble_n of_o soul_n that_o do_v disanimate_a and_o discourage_v you_o and_o lay_v you_o under_o such_o sorrow_n of_o spirit_n and_o under_o such_o trouble_n of_o mind_n as_o to_o lay_v you_o under_o a_o hopeless_a condition_n and_o that_o in_o your_o sorrow_n you_o can_v retain_v any_o future_a hope_n concern_v the_o church_n future_a welfare_n and_o thus_o have_v lay_v down_o the_o caution_n 2._o i_o shall_v now_o lay_v down_o the_o second_o particular_a to_o show_v you_o that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n of_o old_a have_v be_v great_o sensible_a of_o and_o afflict_v for_o the_o trouble_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o under_o this_o head_n there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o person_n to_o be_v consider_v 1._o those_o that_o do_v foresee_v the_o trouble_n of_o the_o church_n and_o they_o do_v fear_v it_o and_o be_v trouble_v for_o it_o 2._o those_o that_o do_v feel_v the_o trouble_n of_o the_o church_n when_o it_o do_v come_v and_o these_o be_v trouble_v also_o first_o those_o that_o do_v foresee_v when_o the_o trouble_n of_o the_o church_n will_v come_v and_o they_o be_v trouble_v the_o one_o be_v elisha_n he_o do_v foresee_v the_o trouble_n of_o the_o church_n and_o he_o fall_v a_o weep_n and_o when_o he_o be_v with_o hazael_n he_o ask_v what_o do_v trouble_v thou_o my_o lord_n and_o he_o answer_v and_o say_v because_o of_o the_o evil_a and_o the_o wickedness_n that_o thou_o will_v do_v unto_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n to_o dash_v they_o against_o the_o story_n and_o the_o strong_a hold_v thou_o will_v set_v on_o fire_n and_o then_o woman_n thou_o will_v 13._o rip_v up_o with_o child_n the_o story_n you_o may_v read_v in_o 2_o king_n 8._o 12._o 13._o for_o say_v he_o thou_o shall_v come_v to_o be_v king_n and_o thou_o shall_v do_v this_o great_a wickedness_n and_o the_o consideration_n of_o what_o this_o man_n will_v do_v to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n make_v this_o good_a man_n so_o to_o weep_v and_o so_o likewise_o we_o read_v of_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n therefore_o say_v i_o look_v away_o from_o i_o i_o will_v weep_v bitter_o or_o i_o will_v be_v bitter_a in_o weep_v labour_v not_o to_o comfort_v i_o 4._o why_o what_o be_v the_o matter_n that_o this_o good_a man_n will_v be_v thus_o heavy_a and_o weep_v because_o of_o the_o spoil_n of_o the_o daughter_n of_o my_o people_n what_o shall_v the_o prophet_n weep_v so_o for_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o his_o day_n but_o quietness_n and_o peace_n and_o plenty_n and_o yet_o in_o these_o day_n the_o prophet_n weep_v bitter_o and_o will_v not_o be_v comfort_v the_o trouble_n be_v not_o now_o real_o come_v for_o it_o come_v not_o a_o hundred_o year_n after_o his_o death_n but_o the_o prophet_n do_v foresee_v that_o it_o will_v come_v certain_o upon_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o this_o consideration_n make_v he_o to_o weep_v and_o for_o this_o his_o heart_n be_v sore_o trouble_v
