thing_n but_o now_o a_o spiritual_a man_n be_v spiritual_a in_o earthly_a thing_n one_o of_o a_o spiritual_a mind_n be_v more_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a when_o he_o be_v about_o his_o call_n though_o the_o mean_a as_o hedge_v and_o ditch_v or_o when_o he_o be_v pull_v his_o rope_n and_o line_n or_o use_v his_o axe_n or_o hammer_n he_o be_v more_o spiritual_a i_o say_v then_o than_o a_o earthly_a man_n be_v when_o he_o be_v pray_v or_o hear_v or_o receive_v sacrament_n certain_o it_o be_v so_o and_o it_o will_v be_v find_v to_o be_v so_o at_o the_o great_a day_n of_o judgement_n when_o the_o secret_n of_o all_o heart_n shall_v be_v disclose_v that_o be_v the_o six_o thing_n when_o a_o man_n seek_v earthly_a thing_n for_o himself_o and_o that_o that_o we_o may_v add_v as_o a_o seven_o be_v that_o he_o be_v earthly_a in_o spiritual_a thing_n i_o grant_v that_o the_o best_a of_o the_o saint_n may_v have_v some_o earthliness_n in_o spirtual_a thing_n but_o i_o speak_v of_o the_o predominancie_n it_o be_v that_o that_o do_v rule_v in_o the_o heart_n so_o that_o in_o the_o performance_n of_o spiritual_a thing_n his_o very_a end_n be_v but_o earthly_a and_o the_o frame_n of_o his_o heart_n be_v but_o earthly_a in_o spiritual_a performance_n the_o eight_o thing_n wherein_o we_o may_v find_v a_o earthly_a mind_a man_n be_v this_o that_o he_o pass_v through_o many_o and_o great_a difficulty_n in_o matter_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o they_o be_v very_o little_a to_o he_o and_o though_o he_o have_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o toil_n for_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o earth_n yet_o he_o be_v never_o weary_a with_o it_o because_o he_o be_v in_o his_o proper_a element_n and_o therefore_o let_v there_o be_v what_o difficulty_n there_o will_v be_v which_o to_o another_o man_n will_v be_v very_o great_a he_o make_v of_o they_o as_o nothing_o and_o though_o there_o be_v much_o toil_n and_o labour_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o weary_a why_o because_o he_o be_v in_o his_o own_o element_n the_o fish_n be_v not_o weary_a with_o swim_v but_o a_o man_n be_v quick_o weary_a i_o but_o the_o fish_n be_v in_o its_o element_n and_o a_o man_n be_v not_o so_o i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v this_o when_o a_o man_n spirit_n be_v in_o this_o kind_n of_o temper_n let_v he_o but_o be_v busy_v about_o earthly_a thing_n wherein_o earthly_a advantage_n come_v in_o no_o difficulty_n will_v hinder_v he_o no_o wind_n or_o weather_n he_o will_v rise_v in_o cold_a morning_n and_o go_v abroad_o do_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n oh_o what_o difficulty_n will_v man_n endure_v in_o storm_n at_o sea_n and_o hazard_n there_o and_o trouble_n at_o land_n many_o way_n for_o thing_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o sit_v up_o late_o and_o rise_v early_o and_o toil_n themselves_o and_o complain_v of_o no_o weariness_n nor_o no_o difficulty_n but_o now_o let_v they_o come_v but_o to_o spiritual_a thing_n to_o soul-business_n that_o concern_v god_n and_o their_o spiritual_a estate_n every_o little_a difficulty_n put_v they_o aside_o and_o discourage_v they_o every_o molehill_n be_v a_o mountain_n in_o their_o way_n i_o will_v do_v so_o and_o so_o indeed_o but_o it_o be_v so_o hard_a and_o it_o be_v tedious_a to_o rise_v in_o a_o morning_n especial_o in_o cold_a winter_n morning_n it_o be_v very_o hard_a and_o difficult_a to_o read_v and_o pray_v and_o so_o he_o be_v complain_v of_o the_o difficulty_n of_o these_o thing_n and_o to_o watch_v over_o the_o heart_n it_o be_v a_o mighty_a difficulty_n to_o a_o earthly_a man_n any_o spiritual_a thing_n be_v difficult_a and_o the_o difficulty_n do_v discourage_v he_o and_o in_o spiritual_a thing_n oh_o how_o weary_a be_v they_o as_o they_o in_o the_o 1._o of_o micha_n 13._o they_o cry_v out_o what_o a_o weariness_n be_v it_o but_o in_o the_o business_n of_o the_o world_n they_o can_v follow_v it_o from_o morning_n to_o night_n they_o be_v never_o tire_v they_o can_v work_v as_o we_o say_v sometime_o of_o man_n like_o a_o horse_n and_o yet_o never_o out_o of_o breath_n oh_o i_o will_v but_o desire_v you_o try_v your_o heart_n once_o but_o to_o endeavour_v to_o spend_v one_o sabbath_n exct_o and_o see_v what_o a_o weariness_n that_o will_v be_v to_o you_o resolve_v but_o one_o sabbath_n to_o rise_v early_o in_o the_o morning_n &_o to_o have_v your_o thought_n spiritual_a &_o heavenly_a as_o much_o as_o you_o can_v and_o then_o get_v up_o &_o pray_v alone_o in_o your_o closet_n then_o read_v and_o hear_v and_o meditate_v and_o mark_v what_o you_o hear_v and_o when_o you_o go_v home_o think_v of_o it_o and_o confer_v about_o it_o and_o when_o you_o come_v again_o attend_v upon_o the_o word_n and_o so_o spend_v the_o whole_a day_n in_o hear_v read_v meditate_v and_o conference_n about_o good_a thing_n call_v your_o family_n to_o account_v and_o pray_v again_o and_o see_v how_o tiresome_a this_o will_v be_v unto_o your_o heart_n if_o they_o be_v carnal_a but_o now_o a_o spiritual_a heart_n will_v call_v the_o sabbath_n a_o delight_n unto_o it_o and_o the_o sabbath_n unto_o such_o a_o one_o be_v no_o other_o than_o that_o type_n and_o before_o runner_n of_o that_o eternal_a day_n of_o rest_n it_o shall_v enjoy_v in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n one_o that_o be_v spiritual_a account_n the_o sabbath_n to_o be_v a_o day_n of_o rest_n but_o a_o earthly_a man_n be_v quick_o tire_v in_o spiritual_a thing_n he_o will_v give_v over_o his_o work_n and_o not_o go_v through_o it_o we_o read_v in_o the_o 4._o of_o nehe._n 6._o verse_n nehemiah_n have_v speak_v of_o the_o great_a difficulty_n that_o they_o meet_v withal_o in_o their_o work_n and_o yet_o say_v he_o the_o work_n go_v on_o for_o they_o bid_v a_o mind_n to_o it_o so_o look_v how_o a_o man_n mind_n be_v so_o he_o will_v be_v able_a to_o go_v through_o his_o work_n if_o a_o man_n be_v a_o earthly-minded_n man_n such_o a_o man_n will_v go_v through_o stitch_n with_o his_o work_n if_o he_o take_v up_o business_n for_o the_o world_n he_o will_v go_v through_o with_o it_o for_o he_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o it_o he_o be_v a_o man_n of_o a_o earthly_a mind_n but_o let_v he_o take_v in_o hand_n a_o spiritual_a work_n and_o he_o will_v lay_v it_o aside_o before_o it_o be_v half_o do_v he_o will_v seldom_o bring_v to_o perfection_n any_o spiritual_a work_n why_o because_o he_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o it_o whereas_o be_v the_o heart_n spiritual_a and_o there_o be_v any_o spiritual_a work_n undertake_v such_o a_o one_o will_v go_v through_o with_o it_o till_o all_o be_v finish_v another_o note_n about_o the_o description_n of_o a_o earthly-minded_n man_n be_v this_o a_o earthly-minded_n man_n be_v one_o that_o do_v conceive_v of_o the_o most_o heavenly_a truth_n that_o be_v reveal_v in_o the_o word_n in_o a_o earthly_a way_n according_a to_o his_o mind_n his_o genius_n and_o disposition_n of_o his_o own_o heart_n and_o i_o very_o think_v this_o be_v in_o a_o special_a manner_n mean_v in_o this_o place_n for_o the_o apostle_n be_v speak_v of_o those_o that_o do_v oppose_v he_o in_o his_o ministry_n and_o that_o be_v enemy_n to_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n now_o say_v he_o these_o mind_n earthly_a thing_n their_o mind_n be_v of_o a_o earthly_a temper_n and_o therefore_o no_o marvel_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v though_o they_o do_v not_o savour_v those_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a truth_n that_o we_o bring_v to_o they_o for_o their_o mind_n be_v earthly_a they_o only_o apprehend_v those_o thing_n after_o a_o earthly_a manner_n as_o now_o what_o be_v the_o great_a truth_n that_o the_o apostle_n do_v bring_v to_o the_o philippian_n it_o be_v the_o way_n of_o reconcile_a the_o world_n to_o god_n of_o make_v our_o peace_n with_o god_n and_o of_o our_o justification_n through_o jesus_n christ_n now_o there_o be_v no_o point_n of_o religion_n more_o spiritual_a heavenly_a and_o divine_a than_o the_o doctrine_n of_o reconciliation_n and_o of_o justification_n by_o jesus_n christ_n so_o that_o one_o that_o be_v of_o a_o earthly_a disposition_n though_o he_o may_v be_v convince_v of_o a_o necessity_n of_o pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o peace_n with_o god_n yet_o he_o apprehend_v the_o make_n of_o his_o peace_n with_o god_n and_o obtain_v pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n but_o in_o a_o earthly_a manner_n he_o have_v carnal_a thought_n and_o apprehension_n about_o his_o peace_n with_o god_n and_o about_o obtain_v pardon_n of_o sin_n he_o think_v it_o be_v the_o same_o way_n that_o one_o man_n obtain_v peace_n with_o another_o when_o he_o be_v fall_v out_o and_o of_o get_v pardon_n from_o another_o man_n that_o he_o have_v offend_v he_o conceive_v it_o in_o a_o earthly_a way_n he_o look_v upon_o his_o make_a
