christ_n be_v please_v to_o set_v himself_o in_o competition_n with_o it_o 165_o god_n have_v link_v together_o with_o a_o indissoluble_a bond_n happiness_n and_o holiness_n reign_v and_o

for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v bad_a in_o a_o good_a age_n and_o to_o continue_v unreformed_a in_o a_o general_a reformation_n so_o it_o be_v a_o special_a commendation_n for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v good_a

as_o the_o garment_n that_o we_o wear_v must_v receive_v heat_n from_o the_o body_n before_o they_o return_v heat_n to_o it_o so_o there_o must_v be_v matter_n of_o joy_n and_o comfort_n from_o

they_o be_v no_o more_o holy_a 171_o as_o health_n free_v from_o all_o disease_n according_a to_o the_o degree_n of_o it_o so_o sanctify_v grace_n free_v from_o all_o vice_n that_o be_v contrary_a

that_o converse_v so_o with_o man_n in_o public_a as_o if_o god_n overlook_v he_o and_o that_o commune_v so_o with_o god_n in_o private_a as_o if_o man_n overhear_v he_o 176_o s._n augustine_n say_v

sanctify_v convert_v and_o digest_v all_o into_o spiritual_a and_o useful_a thought_n 179_o if_o we_o try_v to_o wind_v up_o our_o soul_n at_o any_o time_n to_o holy_a meditation_n we_o shall_v find_v our_o mind_n like_o the_o peg_n of_o a_o instrument_n slip_v between_o our_o finger_n as_o we_o be_v wind_v they_o up_o and_o so_o fall_v down_o again_o before_o we_o be_v aware_a 180_o as_o the_o clear_a blood_n make_v the_o best_a spirit_n so_o a_o good_a life_n the_o great_a confidence_n the_o pure_a air_n breed_v the_o great_a agility_n and_o the_o pure_a life_n the_o fair_a hope_n 181_o a_o man_n may_v have_v a_o good_a colour_n from_o flush_a or_o paint_n though_o his_o body_n be_v unsound_a and_o a_o man_n can_v never_o have_v a_o healthful_a body_n but_o his_o complexion_n be_v

such_o a_o place_n his_o compass_n stand_v still_o right_a though_o the_o wind_n carry_v he_o violent_o another_o way_n but_o the_o gust_n be_v over_o he_o return_v and_o sail_n to_o his_o intend_a haven_n so_o the_o saint_n sail_v by_o a_o right_a compass_n their_o intent_n be_v still_o good_a if_o they_o do_v otherwise_o it_o be_v by_o accident_n when_o they_o be_v overbear_v by_o some_o temptation_n which_o be_v once_o over_o they_o return_v into_o the_o right_a way_n again_o 183_o he_o that_o cut_v down_o a_o tree_n with_o a_o ill_a axe_n cut_v it_o down_o in_o the_o end_n though_o not_o so_o neat_o so_o a_o good_a man_n be_v still_o destroy_v the_o body_n of_o sin_n by_o obedience_n though_o it_o be_v with_o some_o hack_n and_o imperfection_n 184_o science_n and_o conscience_n both_o join_v together_o make_v up_o a_o perfect_a man_n in_o christ_n jesus_n 185_o the_o nature_n of_o faith_n be_v to_o apprehend_v righteousness_n in_o the_o sense_n of_o sin_n happiness_n in_o the_o sense_n of_o misery_n and_o favour_n in_o the_o sense_n of_o displeasure_n 186_o the_o reason_n why_o a_o perspective_n glass_n draw_v remote_a object_n close_o to_o the_o eye_n be_v because_o it_o multiply_v the_o species_n so_o we_o by_o faith_n apprehend_v a_o infinite_a and_o everlasting_a glory_n must_v needs_o conceive_v any_o thing_n through_o which_o we_o look_v upon_o it_o to_o

to_o one_o and_o the_o same_o centre_n so_o every_o promise_n by_o faith_n apprehend_v carry_v a_o man_n to_o christ_n and_o to_o the_o consideration_n of_o our_o unity_n with_o he_o in_o the_o right_n whereof_o we_o have_v claim_v to_o they_o 188_o as_o a_o bird_n with_o a_o little_a eye_n and_o advantage_n of_o a_o wing_n to_o soar_v up_o withal_o may_v see_v more_o than_o a_o ox_n with_o a_o great_a so_o the_o righteous_a with_o a_o little_a estate_n join_v with_o faith_n tranquillity_n and_o devotion_n may_v have_v more_o pleasure_n feel_v more_o comfort_n and_o see_v more_o of_o god_n bounty_n and_o mercy_n than_o a_o man_n of_o vast_a possession_n who_o heart_n can_v lift_v itself_o above_o the_o earth_n 189_o a_o man_n can_v live_v without_o lively_a faith_n and_o faith_n be_v not_o lively_a without_o a_o holy_a life_n 190_o faith_n in_o christ_n must_v be_v second_v with_o faithfulness_n unto_o christ_n as_o we_o must_v have_v faith_n in_o he_o so_o we_o must_v keep_v faith_n unto_o he_o 191_o as_o it_o be_v but_o a_o harlotry_n love_n for_o a_o woman_n to_o love_v the_o gift_n more_o than_o the_o giver_n so_o it_o be_v but_o a_o harlotry_n faith_n for_o we_o to_o trust_v god_n pledge_n or_o pawn_v more_o than_o himself_o 192_o faith_n will_v enable_v we_o to_o see_v the_o sweet_a sunshine_n of_o god_n favour_n even_o through_o the_o thick_a cloud_n of_o god_n wrath_n 193_o it_o be_v the_o efficacy_n of_o faith_n to_o believe_v what_o we_o see_v not_o and_o it_o shall_v be_v the_o reward_n of_o faith_n to_o see_v what_o we_o believe_v greg._n 194_o faith_n

christ_n righteousness_n be_v as_o much_o we_o to_o save_v we_o trust_v upon_o it_o as_o his_o own_o to_o glorify_v he_o 196_o as_o when_o all_o outwork_n in_o a_o city_n be_v take_v the_o wall_n
