A86421	A garden inclosed, and Wisdom justified only of her children. Being two exercises, discovering the glory, beauty and perfection of the love of God to saints that are so comprehended, and in such a glorious inclosure: and also the sweet reflections in, and from saints, in iustifying wisdom: which were delivered at New-port Pagnell, about a yeare and a half since: for declaration whereof, the authour was then imprisoned, and since accused, for delivering of blasphemie. by Paul Hobson.

draw_v up_o by_o the_o power_n of_o reason_n from_o the_o external_a declaration_n of_o truth_n to_o believe_v a_o christ_n without_o when_o he_o do_v not_o enjoy_v a_o christ_n within_o which_o man_n may_v do_v and_o so_o believe_v that_o they_o may_v be_v bring_v to_o submit_v to_o a_o external_a ordinance_n but_o by_o a_o believer_n i_o mean_v a_o soul_n who_o from_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o a_o

every_o beam_n be_v like_o its_o own_o body_n so_o it_o be_v here_o that_o love_n that_o be_v in_o a_o saint_n to_o christ_n it_o be_v but_o a_o son_n 4.9.10_o 1_o joh._n 4.9.10_o it_o be_v but_o a_o

and_o what_o you_o may_v say_v of_o love_n you_o may_v say_v of_o all_o that_o be_v consider_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o saint_n as_o a_o saint_n insomuch_o that_o if_o you_o shall_v call_v the_o

christ_n in_o the_o giving_n out_o of_o himself_o to_o we_o require_v return_n of_o himself_o in_o a_o acknowledgement_n of_o so_o great_a a_o privilege_n but_o behold_v all_o the_o return_n in_o we_o

christ_n take_v more_o content_a and_o delight_n in_o it_o than_o elsewhere_o from_o thence_o observe_v these_o four_o consectary_n first_o from_o the_o first_o thing_n 1._o consect_n 1._o that_o christ_n church_n may_v fit_o be_v call_v a_o garden_n because_o it_o be_v enclose_v from_o thence_o observe_v this_o consectarie_n that_o christ_n church_n be_v not_o a_o scatter_a confuse_a but_o a_o enclose_a company_n it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o idle_a shepherd_n to_o let_v their_o sheep_n go_v scatter_v up_o and_o down_o not_o know_v they_o nor_o they_o know_v he_o but_o the_o lord_n

that_o do_v appear_v in_o the_o spouse_n whilst_o she_o acknowledge_v christ_n but_o i_o pass_v that_o over_o and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o the_o second_o thing_n in_o the_o word_n which_o be_v the_o

right_o understand_v what_o it_o be_v to_o hearken_v to_o christ_n but_o know_v doct._n 2_o and_o in_o its_o know_v do_v acknowledge_v that_o all_o power_n be_v from_o christ_n and_o in_o this_o
