what_o be_v this_o particular_a word_n which_o the_o lord_n speak_v to_o the_o soul_n be_v there_o any_o such_o particular_a word_n to_o be_v find_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n thomas_n or_o

there_o be_v not_o a_o particular_a word_n expressive_o yet_o there_o be_v equivalent_o and_o this_o i_o will_v make_v appear_v in_o three_o or_o four_o particular_n first_o what_o particular_a place_n of_o scripture_n say_v that_o thomas_n or_o james_n or_o such_o a_o one_o be_v a_o child_n of_o wrath_n by_o nature_n be_v here_o any_o scripture_n say_v so_o of_o he_o i_o answer_v yes_o this_o particular_a be_v in_o the_o general_n we_o be_v all_o the_o child_n of_o wrath_n by_o nature_n eph._n 2.3_o and_o curse_a be_v every_o one_o that_o continue_v not_o in_o all_o the_o thing_n

his_o particular_a in_o the_o general_n that_o he_o be_v a_o curse_a creature_n again_o what_o place_n of_o scripture_n say_v that_o robert_n or_o john_n must_v love_v god_n and_o be_v bind_v to_o love_n god_n be_v there_o any_o such_o place_n of_o scripture_n no_o why_o will_v you_o say_v then_o that_o you_o be_v bind_v to_o love_n god_n and_o obey_v he_o if_o there_o be_v no_o such_o place_n of_o scripture_n yes_o for_o this_o particular_a be_v in_o the_o general_n thou_o shall_v love_v the_o lard_n thy_o god_n etc._n etc._n that_o commandment_n be_v deliver_v to_o all_o man_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n so_o thou_o shall_v do_v no_o murder_n thou_o shall_v not_o commit_v adultery_n etc._n etc._n this_o commandment_n lie_v upon_o the_o whole_a world_n therefore_o if_o thou_o be_v a_o man_n though_o thou_o can_v not_o find_v thy_o name_n set_v down_o that_o the_o lord_n speak_v to_o thou_o yet_o thy_o particular_a be_v in_o those_o general_n so_o though_o it_o can_v be_v show_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n that_o such_o a_o particular_a man_n shall_v rise_v again_o yet_o when_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o all_o man_n shall_v rise_v again_o as_o john_n 5.28_o marvel_v not_o for_o the_o hour_n shall_v come_v that_o all_o flesh_n that_o be_v in_o the_o grave_n shall_v come_v forth_o if_o all_o that_o be_v dead_a shall_v rise_v again_o than_o every_o man_n shall_v rise_v again_o though_o his_o name_n be_v not_o name_v in_o scripture_n so_o it_o be_v hear_v we_o read_v in_o scripture_n that_o christ_n say_v john_n 7.37_o if_o any_o man_n thirst_n let_v he_o come_v unto_o i_o and_o drink_n now_o the_o lord_n include_v a_o particular_a in_o it_o and_o bring_v it_o to_o the_o soul_n thou_o thirste_a thou_o will_v fain_o have_v christ_n here_o be_v the_o promise_n here_o be_v all_o mercy_n in_o my_o son_n believe_v in_o he_o come_v and_o receive_v he_o take_v he_o and_o thou_o shall_v have_v they_o so_o if_o christ_n say_v whosoever_o believe_v shall_v be_v save_v than_o saint_n paul_n may_v safe_o conclude_v a_o particular_a word_n to_o the_o jailor_n believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o thou_o shall_v be_v save_v act_v 16.31_o so_o that_o you_o see_v here_o be_v a_o particular_a word_n though_o not_o particular_a direct_o yet_o equivalent_a to_o a_o particular_a namely_o a_o particular_a in_o the_o general_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n do_v speak_v this_o to_o the_o soul_n and_o make_v the_o soul_n hear_v it_o every_o man_n therefore_o that_o have_v hear_v it_o etc._n etc._n voice_n when_o god_n call_v the_o soul_n home_o he_o make_v the_o soul_n hear_v his_o voice_n here_o a_o particular_a voice_n and_o word_n to_o he_o believe_v in_o the_o lord_n come_v unto_o i_o for_o salvation_n rely_v upon_o i_o for_o eternal_a life_n the_o sin_n that_o trouble_v thy_o soul_n cast_v thyself_o upon_o i_o for_o the_o forgive_n of_o they_o the_o disease_n misery_n distemper_n thou_o be_v subject_a unto_o lay_v hold_v upon_o i_o and_o rest_n upon_o i_o for_o the_o deliver_v thou_o from_o they_o the_o lord_n when_o he_o call_v a_o man_n effectual_o he_o speak_v it_o not_o only_o the_o minister_n and_o the_o word_n speak_v it_o but_o the_o lord_n speak_v it_o and_o so_o the_o soul_n hear_v of_o the_o father_n come_v to_o christ_n thus_o you_o may_v see_v the_o lord_n hold_v the_o free_a promise_n of_o the_o gospel_n before_o the_o soul_n and_o bid_v a_o man_n rely_v upon_o they_o as_o peter_n deal_v with_o his_o contrite_a hearer_n the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n go_v along_o with_o his_o word_n act_n 2.39_o believe_v say_v he_o for_o the_o promise_n belong_v to_o you_o and_o to_o your_o child_n etc._n etc._n as_o who_o shall_v say_v when_o god_n call_v a_o man_n effectual_o he_o hold_v forth_o his_o promise_n and_o propound_v they_o to_o the_o soul_n believe_v this_o promise_n and_o rest_n upon_o i_o for_o it_o thus_o the_o lord_n do_v call_v a_o man_n home_o he_o send_v his_o promise_n before_o he_o he_o set_v up_o hope_n before_o he_o he_o send_v the_o gracious_a invitation_n of_o the_o gospel_n before_o he_o and_o bid_v he_o rely_v upon_o it_o thus_o god_n deal_v with_o his_o elect_a corinth_n 1_o cor._n 1.9_o god_n be_v faithful_a say_v the_o apostle_n by_o who_o you_o be_v call_v to_o the_o fellowship_n of_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n as_o who_o shall_v say_v when_o god_n call_v you_o he_o speak_v to_o every_o one_o of_o you_o in_o particular_a come_v and_o be_v fellow_n heir_n with_o my_o son_n come_v and_o have_v every_o good_a thing_n with_o my_o son_n come_v and_o be_v a_o son_n with_o he_o come_v and_o be_v a_o heir_n of_o grace_n with_o he_o and_o have_v title_n to_o eternal_a life_n and_o salvation_n god_n call_v you_o say_v he_o to_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v faithful_a so_o i_o may_v instance_n in_o many_o more_o though_o there_o be_v never_o so_o many_o in_o the_o congregation_n yet_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o speak_v to_o they_o all_o they_o do_v not_o all_o hear_v his_o voice_n they_o all_o hear_v the_o minister_n but_o that_o make_v they_o not_o to_o come_v that_o do_v not_o the_o deed_n but_o when_o the_o lord_n call_v a_o man_n he_o come_v he_o join_v with_o the_o word_n and_o speak_v to_o this_o or_o that_o man_n and_o take_v he_o alone_o and_o whisper_v he_o in_o the_o ear_n and_o tell_v he_o where_o mercy_n be_v and_o bid_v he_o rely_v upon_o he_o and_o though_o sense_n and_o feeling_n be_v against_o he_o though_o all_o fear_n and_o objection_n be_v against_o he_o he_o bid_v he_o believe_v and_o be_v of_o good_a cheer_n he_o shall_v have_v all_o these_o mercy_n if_o he_o will_v believe_v in_o he_o as_o he_o say_v isaiah_n 51.20_o look_v unto_o abraham_n your_o father_n for_o i_o call_v he_o alone_o and_o bless_a he_o mark_v it_o the_o lord_n take_v he_o alone_o and_o speak_v to_o his_o heart_n between_o he_o and_o himself_o so_o when_o the_o lord_n speak_v to_o a_o soul_n and_o call_v he_o by_o his_o grace_n he_o call_v he_o alone_o and_o take_v he_o alone_o though_o all_o the_o congregation_n hear_v the_o same_o sermon_n yet_o he_o take_v he_o alone_o and_o speak_v to_o his_o heart_n and_o bid_v he_o believe_v in_o he_o for_o i_o will_v never_o fail_v thou_o it_o be_v a_o sure_a foundation_n he_o may_v build_v upon_o it_o for_o ever_o and_o ever_o because_o no_o man_n can_v come_v unto_o christ_n else_o christ_n for_o we_o see_v daily_o though_o minister_n call_v all_o the_o congregation_n and_o assembly_n yet_o people_n do_v not_o stir_v they_o be_v dead_a in_o their_o sin_n they_o can_v hear_v the_o minister_n no_o it_o must_v be_v a_o loud_a voice_n and_o one_o that_o be_v more_o powerful_a and_o effectual_a unless_o the_o lord_n come_v and_o bid_v a_o man_n believe_v he_o can_v never_o do_v it_o therefore_o john_n 5.26_o see_v what_o christ_n say_v very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o that_o the_o hour_n shall_v come_v when_o the_o dead_a shall_v hear_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n here_o come_v a_o almighty_a voice_n that_o speak_v to_o the_o raise_n of_o a_o man_n out_o of_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n to_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n and_o faith_n and_o he_o show_v that_o there_o be_v a_o voice_n of_o christ_n that_o speak_v to_o the_o soul_n that_o though_o the_o soul_n be_v dead_a yet_o it_o shall_v hear_v and_o live_v so_o ephesian_n 5.14_o and_o be_v it_o not_o for_o this_o call_v no_o man_n can_v believe_v that_o so_o they_o may_v have_v a_o ground_n
be_v your_o case_n as_o well_o as_o any_o other_o so_o the_o church_n of_o israel_n the_o ten_o tribe_n they_o be_v a_o church_n but_o in_o the_o end_n they_o come_v to_o be_v no_o church_n they_o

the_o first_o be_v gospel_n the_o sincere_a preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o infallible_a and_o inseparable_a mark_n of_o a_o true_a church_n of_o god_n wheresoever_o there_o be_v the_o true_a

speak_v the_o word_n of_o god_n as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n at_o least_o in_o the_o fundamental_o now_o there_o be_v no_o parish_n or_o kingdom_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o church_n of_o god_n that_o have_v not_o true_a minister_n able_a to_o preach_v the_o word_n of_o god_n sound_o to_o teach_v the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n and_o repentance_n so_o as_o people_n may_v believe_v and_o turn_v

worthy_a of_o it_o it_o be_v free_a and_o have_v all_o the_o whole_a wide_a world_n before_o it_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o limit_v his_o gospel_n to_o any_o town_n or_o kingdom_n he_o may_v send_v
