list_v compare_v john_n 3.8_o the_o spirit_n breathe_v where_o it_o list_v with_o john_n 6.44_o no_o man_n can_v come_v unto_o i_o unless_o the_o father_n draw_v he_o draw_v he_o that_o be_v not_o as_o a_o sheep_n be_v lead_v with_o a_o bough_n for_o christ_n do_v not_o say_v no_o man_n will_v come_v but_z no_o man_n can_v come_v except_o the_o father_n draw_v he_o compel_v he_o as_o it_o be_v

dead_a an._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o law_n be_v give_v to_o this_o end_n to_o show_v we_o our_o weakness_n and_o to_o lead_v we_o unto_o christ_n it_o be_v not_o give_v we_o to_o keep_v exact_o for_o that_o be_v impossible_a it_o be_v impossible_a to_o keep_v it_o through_o the_o weakness_n of_o the_o flesh_n rom._n 8.3_o the_o law_n be_v therefore_o give_v that_o we_o may_v know_v

to_o do_v thing_n impossible_a man_n nature_n be_v destroy_v for_o man_n be_v a_o free_a creature_n second_o the_o command_n imply_v a_o absurdity_n and_o impossibility_n to_o bid_v a_o man_n do_v that_o which_o he_o can_v do_v to_o bid_v a_o man_n that_o be_v in_o a_o deep_a well_o bind_v hand_n and_o foot_n to_o come_v out_o himself_o be_v foolish_a you_o may_v blame_v he_o for_o fall_v in_o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o bid_v he_o come_v out_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v answ._n that_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o external_a bind_n and_o the_o bond_n wherewith_o a_o man_n be_v fetter_v by_o sin_n there_o be_v a_o external_a impediment_n which_o a_o man_n can_v remove_v when_o he_o be_v fetter_v in_o the_o well_o but_o there_o be_v no_o external_a impediment_n when_o as_o man_n be_v bind_v in_o the_o chain_n of_o sin_n when_o we_o command_v you_o to_o do_v thus_o and_o thus_o all_o the_o business_n be_v with_o the_o will_n we_o rather_o say_v man_n will_v not_o than_o they_o can_v come_v there_o be_v liberty_n when_o as_o a_o man_n have_v eligibile_fw-la or_o non_fw-la eligibile_fw-la when_o he_o have_v a_o thing_n in_o his_o own_o choice_n when_o there_o be_v no_o impediment_n when_o he_o may_v argue_v both_o way_n if_o a_o man_n out_o of_o the_o perverseness_n of_o his_o nature_n do_v it_o not_o it_o be_v not_o compulsory_a but_o free_a a_o beast_n action_n be_v free_a because_o he_o can_v reason_v on_o both_o side_n but_o man_n when_o he_o consider_v argument_n on_o both_o side_n when_o he_o can_v say_v do_v not_o do_v such_o a_o thing_n but_o do_v such_o a_o thing_n when_o he_o can_v conceive_v argument_n on_o both_o side_n he_o be_v free_a there_o be_v no_o such_o external_a impediment_n in_o he_o as_o to_o bid_v one_o in_o darkness_n to_o do_v a_o thing_n of_o the_o light_n or_o one_o bind_v hand_n and_o foot_n in_o a_o pit_n to_o come_v out_o since_o the_o chief_a impediment_n here_o be_v in_o the_o deprave_a will_n of_o man_n which_o god_n do_v rectify_v and_o change_v by_o his_o grace_n &_o spirit_n through_o the_o use_n of_o mean_n 1_o if_o then_o every_o man_n out_o of_o christ_n be_v in_o a_o estate_n of_o death_n let_v every_o man_n examine_v himself_o and_o consider_v whether_o he_o be_v a_o dead_a man_n or_o no_o this_o be_v the_o great_a quere_z or_o question_n in_o this_o mutability_n and_o incertainety_n of_o thing_n let_v we_o make_v the_o life_n to_o come_v sure_a our_o life_n be_v uncertain_a here_o but_o have_v we_o this_o spiritual_a life_n be_v we_o live_v man_n then_o we_o be_v happy_a but_o be_v we_o dead_a then_o he_o that_o be_v not_o partaker_n of_o the_o first_o resurrection_n shall_v not_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o second_o it_o be_v too_o late_o to_o begin_v to_o live_v when_o we_o be_v die_v certain_o natural_a death_n be_v a_o time_n of_o spend_v not_o of_o get_v or_o inquire_v after_o life_n if_o you_o defer_v this_o search_n while_o you_o be_v in_o health_n when_o you_o lie_v on_o your_o death_n bed_n when_o you_o shall_v see_v heaven_n and_o hell_n immediate_o present_v unto_o you_o this_o question_n will_v hold_v you_o solicitous_a and_o then_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o this_o spiritual_a life_n be_v the_o life_n indeed_o the_o time_n of_o this_o natural_a life_n be_v not_o long_o the_o candle_n burn_v not_o long_o if_o it_o burn_v out_o yet_o it_o be_v often_o blow_v out_o than_o burn_v out_o man_n often_o fall_v down_o than_o come_v down_o from_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n this_o tabernacle_n be_v often_o throw_v down_o before_o it_o fall_v down_o therefore_o in_o this_o short_a life_n make_v yourselves_o sure_a of_o eternal_a life_n now_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n which_o hinder_v this_o search_n and_o inquiry_n after_o spiritual_a life_n the_o first_o be_v a_o false_a opinion_n man_n think_v themselves_o in_o the_o way_n of_o life_n be_v in_o the_o way_n of_o death_n they_o think_v there_o be_v a_o great_a latitude_n in_o the_o gospel_n than_o there_o be_v the_o second_o be_v man_n be_v not_o at_o leisure_n there_o be_v million_o of_o business_n in_o their_o head_n so_o that_o they_o can_v hearken_v to_o the_o whisper_n of_o
