be_v not_o lead_v into_o the_o truth_n of_o these_o point_n because_o that_o be_v proper_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o be_v he_o only_o that_o lead_v we_o into_o they_o it_o be_v he_o only_o that_o enable_v we_o so_o to_o see_v they_o as_o to_o be_v full_o convince_v so_o as_o to_o resolve_v upon_o the_o practice_n of_o they_o and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v find_v the_o apostle_n s_o paul_n ephes._n 1._o when_o he_o reveal_v there_o those_o spiritual_a blessing_n that_o we_o have_v in_o christ_n when_o he_o have_v declare_v many_o of_o those_o glorious_a privilege_n in_o the_o 18._o verse_n he_o pray_v 18._o that_o the_o eye_n of_o their_o understand_n may_v be_v open_v to_o see_v the_o hope_n of_o their_o call_v and_o the_o riches_n of_o this_o glorious_a inheritance_n prepare_v for_o the_o saint_n &_o the_o exceed_a greatness_n of_o his_o power_n towards_o they_o that_o believe_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v this_o when_o paul_n have_v discover_v all_o this_o say_v he_o this_o labour_n of_o i_o will_v be_v but_o in_o vain_a except_o the_o lord_n open_v the_o eye_n of_o your_o understanding_n so_o it_o be_v when_o we_o preach_v to_o you_o of_o the_o all-sufficiency_n of_o god_n when_o we_o discover_v to_o you_o those_o glorious_a privilege_n that_o we_o have_v by_o christ_n except_o the_o lord_n open_v man_n eye_n except_o he_o send_v the_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n into_o man_n heart_n to_o discern_v those_o thing_n except_o he_o preach_v to_o the_o heart_n as_o well_o as_o we_o do_v to_o the_o ear_n it_o be_v but_o lose_a labour_n say_v the_o apostle_n if_o he_o will_v open_v your_o eye_n to_o see_v the_o hope_n of_o your_o call_v to_o see_v those_o great_a hope_n that_o you_o have_v by_o reason_n of_o your_o call_v to_o see_v the_o riches_n of_o that_o glorious_a inheritance_n prepare_v for_o the_o saint_n it_o be_v not_o only_o rich_a but_o abundant_a riches_n again_o say_v he_o to_o see_v the_o exceed_a greatness_n of_o his_o power_n a_o man_n be_v able_a to_o see_v some_o thing_n that_o god_n be_v able_a to_o do_v this_o and_o to_o do_v that_o but_o to_o see_v the_o exceed_a greatness_n of_o his_o power_n how_o far_o it_o reach_v this_o none_o be_v able_a to_o do_v unless_o he_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n to_o open_v his_o eye_n to_o see_v it_o that_o even_o as_o elisha_n say_v to_o gehasi●_n there_o be_v more_o with_o we_o they_o against_o us._n but_o how_o come_v gehasie_a to_o know_v that_o elisba_n pray_v the_o lord_n to_o open_v his_o eye_n and_o when_o his_o eye_n be_v open_v he_o see_v it_o visible_o after_o this_o manner_n the_o lord_n deal_v with_o his_o child_n when_o such_o truth_n as_o these_o be_v propound_v to_o they_o that_o god_n be_v all-sufficient_a yet_o all_o this_o be_v nothing_o except_o god_n will_v open_v their_o eye_n except_o he_o will_v be_v with_o they_o as_o he_o be_v with_o job_n all_o that_o his_o friend_n say_v to_o he_o will_v not_o persuade_v he_o till_o god_n himself_o speak_v to_o he_o out_o of_o the_o whirlwind_n when_o god_n himself_o will_v say_v to_o a_o man_n as_o he_o do_v to_o abraham_n i_o be_o all-sufficient_a than_o he_o persuade_v he_o and_o not_o before_o and_o this_o beloved_n be_v the_o office_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o be_v he_o that_o show_v the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n it_o be_v he_o that_o glorify_v the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n he_o be_v say_v to_o fill_v they_o with_o joy_n upon_o all_o occasion_n for_o the_o cause_n why_o a_o man_n rejoice_v be_v because_o he_o be_v inform_v of_o some_o good_a news_n something_o he_o be_v persuade_v of_o and_o when_o he_o hear_v of_o it_o there_o follow_v sudden_a joy_n so_o when_o the_o apostle_n be_v in_o distres●e_n in_o prison_n when_o they_o be_v in_o danger_n the_o holy_a ghost_n bring_v good_a news_n to_o they_o he_o reveal_v to_o they_o such_o and_o such_o thing_n upon_o this_o revelation_n upon_o this_o good_a news_n that_o be_v bring_v to_o they_o it_o be_v oft_o say_v they_o be_v fill_v with_o joy_n which_o be_v therefore_o call_v the_o joy_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n work_v in_o man_n by_o persuasion_n by_o reveal_v to_o they_o the_o hope_n of_o their_o call_v and_o the_o riches_n of_o their_o glorious_a inheritance_n and_o the_o exceed_a greatness_n of_o his_o power_n work_v in_o those_o that_o believe_v and_o therefore_o this_o you_o must_v consider_v that_o though_o we_o preach_v to_o you_o and_o you_o hear_v all_o these_o truth_n of_o god_n all-sufficiency_n yet_o you_o be_v able_a to_o practise_v nothing_o till_o christ_n reveal_v it_o to_o you_o if_o he_o come_v to_o a_o man_n when_o he_o be_v in_o a_o strait_a and_o say_v to_o he_o as_o he_o do_v to_o paul_n upon_o several_a occasion_n fear_v not_o paul_n i_o will_v be_v with_o thou_o i_o say_v if_o he_o himself_o will_v come_v thus_o and_o speak_v to_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o man_n that_o be_v if_o he_o will_v reveal_v it_o by_o his_o spirit_n we_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o practise_v it_o we_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o stay_v ourselves_o upon_o he_o we_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o trust_v he_o in_o his_o all-sufficiency_n and_o will_v venture_v upon_o any_o thing_n we_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o do_v our_o duty_n we_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o suffer_v persecution_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v because_o we_o trust_v in_o the_o live_a god_n it_o be_v a_o certain_a and_o true_a rule_n no_o man_n be_v able_a to_o guide_v his_o life_n aright_o his_o riches_n his_o credit_n his_o liberty_n aright_o except_o he_o be_v able_a to_o neglect_v they_o and_o no_o man_n be_v able_a to_o neglect_v they_o except_o he_o have_v some_o thing_n that_o be_v better_a in_o stead_n of_o they_o except_o he_o see_v these_o two_o thing_n a_o emptiness_n in_o they_o and_o a_o fullness_n some_o where_o else_o but_o now_o who_o be_v able_a to_o persuade_v man_n of_o this_o sure_o he_o that_o persuade_v solomon_n that_o all_o be_v vanity_n it_o be_v he_o that_o must_v persuade_v we_o without_o he_o it_o can_v be_v do_v what_o be_v the_o reason_n else_o that_o peter_n andrew_n john_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v able_a to_o forsake_v all_o thing_n when_o other_o be_v not_o doubtlesle_a because_o they_o be_v persuade_v they_o shall_v find_v it_o again_o in_o christ_n when_o other_o be_v not_o so_o persuade_v flesh_n and_o blood_n do_v not_o teach_v they_o but_o the_o holy_a ghost_n reveal_v it_o to_o they_o that_o though_o they_o have_v lose_v all_o yet_o they_o shall_v find_v all_o yea_o they_o shall_v find_v a_o hundred_o fold_n more_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o demas_n and_o other_o when_o they_o meet_v with_o persecution_n and_o temporal_a preferment_n in_o the_o world_n be_v not_o able_a to_o keep_v on_o their_o course_n but_o turn_v aside_o when_o paul_n who_o have_v the_o same_o temtation_n do_v not_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o it_o be_v not_o reveal_v to_o demas_n but_o it_o be_v to_o paul_n a_o window_n be_v open_v to_o he_o in_o heaven_n as_o it_o be_v to_o look_v into_o god_n all-sufficiency_n to_o see_v the_o treasure_n there_o to_o see_v god_n power_n and_o eternity_n and_o blessedness_n and_o when_o he_o walk_v in_o a_o continual_a sight_n of_o this_o all-sufficiency_n paul_n care_v not_o whither_o he_o go_v nor_o what_o become_v of_o he_o it_o be_v nothing_o then_o for_o he_o ot_fw-mi pass_v from_o prison_n to_o prison_n from_o affliction_n to_o affliction_n so_o as_o long_o as_o a_o man_n walk_v in_o a_o continual_a sight_n of_o god_n all-sufficiency_n as_o long_o as_o he_o see_v he_o that_o be_v invisible_a so_o long_o he_o be_v full_a of_o comfort_n so_o long_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v any_o thing_n but_o when_o once_o his_o sight_n be_v take_v from_o he_o when_o once_o he_o be_v leave_v in_o darkness_n that_o torch_n and_o candle_n begin_v to_o appear_v great_a light_n unto_o he_o as_o you_o know_v it_o be_v in_o the_o dark_a night_n that_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o a_o man_n be_v in_o darkness_n when_o the_o fear_n of_o man_n and_o the_o favour_n of_o man_n seem_v great_a unto_o he_o so_o it_o will_v be_v when_o god_n do_v but_o leave_v we_o a_o little_a when_o he_o do_v but_o cloud_v we_o when_o he_o withdraw_v from_o we_o that_o light_n of_o his_o all-sufficiency_n than_o we_o be_v ready_a to_o sink_v and_o to_o fail_v in_o our_o duty_n and_o to_o turn_v aside_o to_o balk_v the_o way_n of_o righteousness_n and_o therefore_o if_o you_o will_v have_v the_o use_n
