these_o thing_n but_o to_o have_v the_o effectual_a work_n of_o these_o thing_n upon_o the_o heart_n that_o be_v not_o so_o easy_a to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o the_o fire_n carnal_a heart_n

will_v be_v over_o these_o be_v poor_a reason_n to_o work_v upon_o the_o heart_n in_o the_o day_n of_o affliction_n but_o now_o a_o gracious_a heart_n shall_v get_v up_o high_o above_o all_o these_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o there_o look_v into_o the_o counsel_n of_o god_n and_o seek_v to_o know_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n and_o to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n o_o grace_n my_o brethren_n

according_a to_o the_o text_n that_o you_o know_v i_o be_o upon_o and_o converse_v much_o with_o god_n in_o the_o day_n of_o their_o health_n why_o their_o heart_n will_v in_o a_o kind_n of_o

my_o health_n for_o the_o present_a but_o will_v rather_o honour_v himself_o in_o another_o way_n upon_o i_o why_o now_o there_o be_v no_o good_a in_o my_o health_n and_o if_o god_n take_v away_o my_o

his_o honour_n from_o my_o soul_n to_o join_v with_o angel_n and_o saint_n in_o honour_v of_o he_o that_o way_n rather_o than_o in_o employ_v of_o i_o any_o further_a in_o this_o world_n such_o a_o principle_n as_o this_o be_v will_v mighty_o help_v the_o heart_n in_o the_o day_n of_o affliction_n certain_o our_o happiness_n do_v not_o depend_v upon_o what_o we_o have_v here_o in_o this_o world_n the_o reason_n why_o the_o heart_n be_v so_o trouble_v in_o the_o time_n of_o affliction_n it_o be_v because_o of_o this_o that_o man_n and_o woman_n look_v upon_o their_o happiness_n to_o consist_v in_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o these_o thing_n o_o no_o thou_o dishonour_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o thy_o holy_a profession_n to_o think_v that_o thy_o happiness_n shall_v depend_v upon_o such_o poor_a thing_n as_o these_o be_v sure_o jesus_n christ_n have_v not_o come_v to_o shed_v his_o blood_n and_o to_o purchase_v happiness_n for_o the_o saint_n and_o when_o all_o come_v too_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o poor_a as_o to_o depend_v upon_o all_o the_o uncertainty_n that_o we_o have_v in_o this_o world_n no_o no_o thy_o happiness_n lie_v hihger_n thy_o life_n be_v hide_v with_o christ_n in_o god_n if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o jewel_n worth_a many_o thousand_o and_o his_o house_n shall_v be_v on_o fire_n why_o though_o he_o lose_v the_o lumber_n and_o stuff_n in_o the_o

not_o much_o what_o other_o thing_n be_v oh_o consider_v of_o these_o thing_n and_o work_v they_o upon_o your_o heart_n that_o be_v the_o second_o point_n but_o a_o word_n or_o two_o of_o the_o other_o doctr._n that_o be_v that_o that_o which_o seem_v ill_a to_o we_o may_v seem_v good_a to_o god_n it_o be_v the_o lord_n let_v he_o do_v what_o seem_v he_o good_a certain_o for_o the_o present_a it_o do_v not_o seem_v very_o good_a to_o ely_n if_o that_o ely_n judgement_n have_v be_v ask_v of_o those_o thing_n ely_n will_v have_v say_v that_o they_o have_v be_v very_o sad_a ay_o

thing_n conclude_v in_o heaven_n in_o heaven_n there_o be_v not_o the_o same_o judgement_n of_o my_o cause_n as_o at_o noremberg_n and_o so_o it_o may_v be_v say_v concern_v affliction_n there_o be_v one_o thing_n many_o time_n conclude_v in_o my_o wretched_a weak_a foolish_a and_o unbelieve_a heart_n and_o another_o thing_n in_o heaven_n one_o thing_n conclude_v in_o the_o world_n and_o in_o

rather_o because_o of_o christ_n come_v among_o they_o and_o they_o refuse_v he_o but_o this_o be_v the_o scope_n of_o my_o father_n send_v of_o i_o into_o the_o world_n that_o by_o i_o the_o world_n

a_o second_o reason_n be_v from_o the_o promise_n of_o christ_n unto_o his_o minister_n when_o they_o go_v to_o any_o place_n to_o preach_v in_o the_o last_o word_n of_o the_o gospel_n by_o saint_n

you_o must_v come_v in_o now_o reas_n 5._o and_o this_o scripture_n do_v put_v i_o upon_o a_o five_o reason_n of_o the_o point_n and_o that_o be_v that_o when_o the_o gospel_n come_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o a_o place_n it_o do_v not_o only_o make_v a_o accept_v time_n and_o a_o day_n of_o salvation_n but_o it_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o prayer_n of_o jesus_n christ_n even_o of_o that_o prayer_n that_o christ_n have_v make_v to_o god_n the_o father_n that_o he_o will_v in_o such_o a_o time_n send_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o be_v clear_o and_o powerful_o teach_v in_o that_o place_n and_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o where_o the_o place_n be_v that_o do_v prove_v it_o it_o be_v in_o isa_n 49._o 8._o you_o have_v there_o almost_o the_o very_a some_o word_n that_o you_o

christ_n if_o you_o look_v both_o unto_o the_o coherence_n of_o the_o word_n with_o what_o have_v be_v before_o and_o that_o which_o follow_v after_o for_o say_v he_o i_o will_v preserve_v thou_o and_o give_v thou_o for_o a_o covenant_n of_o the_o people_n to_o establish_v the_o earth_n to_o cause_v to_o inherit_v the_o desolate_a heritage_n now_o say_v god_n concern_v christ_n thus_o say_v the_o lord_n in_o a_o acceptable_a time_n have_v i_o hear_v thou_o what_o be_v that_o acceptable_a time_n it_o be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n do_v interpret_v to_o be_v a_o day_n of_o salvation_n the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o a_o acceptable_a time_n and_o of_o a_o day_n of_o salvation_n and_o say_v he_o now_o it_o be_v now_o while_o we_o be_v preach_v the_o glad_a tiding_n of_o the_o gospel_n unto_o you_o and_o here_o say_v the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o lord_n have_v hear_v thou_o in_o a_o acceptable_a time_n and_o in_o a_o day_n of_o salvation_n that_o be_v when_o as_o jesus_n christ_n do_v

from_o all_o eternity_n i_o say_v jesus_n christ_n do_v pray_v unto_o the_o father_n for_o they_o now_o say_v god_n i_o have_v hear_v thy_o prayer_n and_o i_o have_v grant_v what_o thou_o pray_v for_o and_o this_o hear_n of_o thy_o prayer_n it_o be_v a_o acceptable_a time_n and_o it_o be_v a_o day_n of_o salvation_n thou_o have_v a_o day_n of_o salvation_n according_a to_o thy_o prayer_n and_o this_o very_a day_n the_o apostle_n do_v interpret_v of_o send_v the_o gospel_n unto_o any_o place_n so_o that_o where_o the_o gospel_n come_v it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o a_o thing_n that_o come_v mere_o by_o accident_n or_o by_o a_o ordinary_a providence_n of_o god_n as_o other_o thing_n but_o it_o be_v that_o that_o come_v unto_o a_o place_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o prayer_n of_o jesus_n christ_n of_o the_o intercession_n of_o jesus_n christ_n unto_o the_o father_n for_o that_o particular_a place_n or_o town_n or_o parish_n and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n leave_v some_o place_n destitute_a of_o help_n in_o ignorance_n and_o darkness_n that_o they_o scarce_o ever_o come_v to_o hear_v of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o other_o that_o it_o may_v be_v be_v in_o themselves_o as_o unworthy_a as_o the_o other_o they_o come_v to_o have_v the_o great_a thing_n of_o the_o gospel_n open_v to_o they_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o difference_n be_v jesus_n christ_n

gospel_n come_v to_o a_o place_n there_o be_v hope_n of_o good_a because_o that_o the_o gospel_n have_v in_o itself_o so_o much_o power_n i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o only_o as_o a_o ordinance_n to_o

there_o be_v such_o wonderful_a thing_n that_o the_o gospel_n do_v reveal_v wheresoever_o it_o come_v that_o one_o will_v wonder_v that_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o people_n shall_v not_o be_v take_v

shall_v send_v the_o gospel_n unto_o the_o devil_n if_o they_o be_v not_o go_v irrecoverable_o one_o will_v think_v that_o what_o be_v make_v know_v in_o the_o gospel_n may_v break_v the_o heart_n of_o a_o devil_n o_o that_o god_n shall_v be_v reconcile_v to_o man_n to_o send_v his_o own_o son_n to_o die_v for_o base_a worm_n upon_o who_o the_o lord_n may_v have_v glorify_v his_o infinite_a justice_n upon_o to_o all_o eternity_n there_o be_v that_o in_o the_o gospel_n that_o it_o be_v to_o admiration_n that_o all_o people_n do_v not_o come_v in_o unto_o it_o what_o do_v christ_n say_v if_o the_o son_n of_o peace_n it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o all_o do_v not_o come_v in_o to_o embrace_v the_o bless_a gospel_n the_o patience_n of_o god_n do_v lead_n to_o repentance_n then_o what_o may_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n do_v that_o be_v hold_v out_o in_o the_o gospel_n the_o lord_n do_v reveal_v such_o argument_n to_o draw_v people_n that_o to_o speak_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n we_o may_v conceive_v that_o if_o the_o
