in_o terminis_fw-la before_o this_o time_n and_o therefore_o augustin_n think_v it_o be_v only_o the_o word_n god_n speak_v but_o not_o write_v and_o so_o they_o have_v it_o from_o hand_n to_o hand_n

the_o scope_n of_o it_o now_o in_o this_o scripture_n you_o have_v these_o three_o special_a and_o notable_a point_n 1_o that_o in_o worship_v of_o god_n there_o be_v a_o draw_v nigh_o unto_o he_o 2_o that_o when_o we_o do_v draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n we_o shall_v take_v heed_n to_o ourselves_o that_o we_o sanctify_v god_n name_n 3_o if_o we_o do_v not_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o our_o drawing_n nigh_o to_o he_o then_o certain_o god_n will_v sanctify_v his_o own_o name_n upon_o we_o these_o be_v the_o three_o point_n that_o i_o intend_v to_o handle_v and_o especial_o the_o second_o to_o handle_v large_o among_o you_o i_o confess_v upon_o another_o occasion_n in_o one_o sermon_n i_o have_v speak_v out_o of_o these_o word_n but_o now_o i_o intend_v not_o only_o in_o general_n to_o show_v you_o how_o you_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o worship_n but_o likewise_o in_o the_o particular_a act_n of_o worship_n as_o sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o prayer_n in_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n in_o hear_v the_o word_n in_o the_o several_a chief_a part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n how_o his_o name_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v for_o in_o all_o these_o you_o do_v draw_v night_n to_o god_n and_o for_o that_o end_n i_o have_v pitch_v my_o thought_n upon_o this_o scripture_n but_o before_o i_o come_v to_o these_o three_o great_a point_n that_o be_v the_o principal_a point_n in_o the_o word_n read_v unto_o you_o i_o shall_v take_v up_o divers_a other_o note_n of_o observation_n that_o lie_v up_o and_o down_o as_o it_o be_v scatter_v that_o be_v of_o great_a use_n and_o will_v help_v we_o further_a to_o make_v use_n of_o this_o scripture_n in_o the_o other_o point_n that_o i_o shall_v come_v to_o afterward_o and_o handle_v more_o large_o the_o first_o note_n be_v this_o that_o in_o god_n worship_n there_o must_v be_v nothing_o tender_v up_o to_o god_n but_o what_o he_o have_v command_v whatsoever_o we_o meddle_v with_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n it_o must_v be_v what_o we_o have_v a_o warrant_n for_o out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o this_o speech_n of_o moses_n be_v upon_o occasion_n of_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o aaron_n son_n for_o offer_v strange_a fire_n they_o offer_v fire_n that_o god_n have_v not_o command_v hence_o i_o say_v that_o all_o thing_n in_o god_n worship_n must_v have_v a_o warrant_v out_o of_o god_n word_n must_v be_v command_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o it_o be_v not_o forbid_v i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v it_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o a_o thing_n be_v not_o forbid_v and_o what_o hurt_n be_v there_o in_o it_o but_o it_o must_v be_v command_v i_o confess_v in_o matter_n that_o be_v civil_a and_o natural_a there_o this_o may_v be_v enough_o if_o it_o be_v but_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o prudence_n and_o not_o forbid_v in_o the_o word_n we_o may_v make_v use_n of_o this_o in_o civil_a and_o natural_a thing_n but_o now_o when_o we_o come_v to_o matter_n of_o religion_n and_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n we_o must_v either_o

to_o their_o heart_n they_o shall_v spend_v some_o time_n in_o preparation_n when_o they_o come_v to_o holy_a duty_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v when_o the_o conscience_n of_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v

to_o enjoy_v communion_n with_o god_n but_o they_o have_v need_v beforehand_o be_v very_o serious_a in_o the_o examination_n of_o their_o heart_n and_o to_o endeavour_v the_o work_n of_o their_o

main_a suppose_v when_o we_o come_v to_o duty_n and_o begin_v to_o examine_v our_o heart_n and_o begin_v to_o bethink_v ourselves_o whether_o we_o be_v prepare_v yea_o or_o no_o to_o holy_a duty_n

performance_n of_o it_o as_o suppose_v prayer_n or_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n or_o come_v to_o the_o word_n or_o any_o other_o holy_a duty_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o doubt_n be_v because_o when_o any_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v conscientious_a they_o think_v with_o themselves_o that_o they_o must_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o holy_a duty_n now_o if_o they_o can_v find_v their_o heart_n in_o a_o fit_a disposition_n to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n they_o be_v ready_a to_o think_v thus_o be_v it_o not_o better_a to_o neglect_v this_o duty_n and_o lay_v it_o aside_o for_o the_o present_a will_v god_n accept_v of_o a_o duty_n when_o i_o perform_v it_o and_o be_o not_o set_v for_o it_o therefore_o for_o the_o answer_n to_o this_o because_o it_o be_v a_o temptation_n that_o sometime_o carnal_a heart_n have_v and_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o take_v this_o temptation_n and_o willing_a to_o neglect_v the_o duty_n upon_o such_o a_o thought_n as_o this_o that_o they_o be_v not_o prepare_v and_o the_o truth_n be_v they_o be_v more_o glad_a to_o let_v the_o duty_n fall_v than_o they_o be_v sorry_a for_o want_v of_o the_o preparation_n of_o their_o heart_n for_o the_o duty_n i_o beseech_v you_o consider_v of_o this_o whether_o you_o have_v not_o find_v it_o so_o that_o sometime_o when_o you_o have_v not_o be_v fit_a to_o perform_v a_o holy_a duty_n there_o have_v not_o be_v a_o more_o secret_a willingness_n of_o the_o heart_n to_o let_v the_o duty_n go_v than_o a_o sorrow_n of_o the_o heart_n because_o you_o be_v not_o fit_a for_o the_o duty_n this_o be_v a_o very_a evil_a sign_n that_o the_o heart_n be_v very_o much_o distemper_v those_o that_o be_v godly_a indeed_o when_o they_o find_v not_o their_o heart_n prepare_v for_o the_o duty_n it_o be_v the_o trouble_n of_o their_o soul_n it_o be_v that_o which_o go_v near_o their_o heart_n when_o they_o think_v with_o themselves_o that_o they_o be_v now_o like_a to_o lose_v a_o duty_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n they_o be_v now_o like_a to_o lose_v their_o communion_n with_o god_n in_o a_o holy_a duty_n they_o even_o look_v upon_o themselves_o in_o a_o evil_a case_n in_o

soul_n of_o man_n than_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o the_o great_a reason_n of_o the_o pride_n of_o all_o man_n heart_n be_v because_o they_o never_o know_v god_n if_o thou_o do_v but_o see_v god_n

it_o in_o exod._n 39_o if_o you_o read_v the_o chapter_n you_o shall_v find_v that_o there_o be_v ten_o time_n say_v that_o they_o do_v as_o god_n have_v command_v moses_n and_o then_o in_o the_o

observe_v the_o worship_n of_o god_n as_o god_n have_v command_v they_o but_o the_o main_a thing_n be_v all_o that_o we_o do_v it_o must_v be_v act_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n it_o be_v not_o

of_o god_n in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n there_o be_v two_o question_n that_o he_o will_v ask_v first_o who_o require_v this_o at_o your_o hand_n but_o then_o if_o you_o can_v answer_v thus_o thou_o

open_v this_o point_n full_o will_v ask_v some_o time_n first_o therefore_o i_o will_v show_v you_o how_o we_o may_v know_v when_o our_o duty_n be_v act_v by_o our_o natural_a part_n rather_o than_o

every_o time_n you_o come_v to_o perform_v holy_a duty_n to_o be_v as_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n separate_v from_o all_o thing_n valerius_n maximus_n tell_v a_o story_n of_o a_o young_a nobleman_n

every_o time_n thou_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n not_o only_o as_o i_o say_v before_o to_o tender_v up_o thy_o service_n in_o his_o name_n but_o act_v thy_o faith_n upon_o christ_n to_o give_v thou_o

be_v say_v to_o be_v like_a unto_o themselves_o as_o a_o man_n if_o he_o do_v entertain_v any_o as_o his_o familiar_a friend_n that_o be_v naught_o and_o wicked_a it_o be_v his_o disgrace_n and_o

the_o sabbath_n my_o brethren_n that_o be_v appoint_v to_o be_v the_o set_v constant_a day_n of_o thanksgiving_n for_o the_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o there_o be_v other_o day_n for_o national_a mercy_n now_o a_o special_a work_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v the_o celebration_n of_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n and_o the_o christian_n in_o former_a time_n be_v wont_a to_o do_v

on_o his_o part_n promise_n and_o make_v a_o cavenant_n that_o he_o will_v bestow_v his_o son_n life_n and_o salvation_n through_o he_o and_o thou_o must_v likewise_o come_v in_o on_o thy_o part_n and_o believe_v on_o his_o son_n and_o repent_v which_o be_v the_o tenor_n of_o the_o gospel_n now_o every_o time_n thou_o come_v to_o receive_v this_o sacrament_n thou_o come_v to_o renew_v this_o

that_o covenant_n now_o thou_o have_v make_v a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o call_v thy_o servant_n who_o thou_o intend_v to_o save_v that_o they_o shall_v renew_v their_o covenant_n with_o thou_o in_o this_o sacrament_n of_o thou_o lord_n here_o i_o come_v and_o lord_n here_o i_o renew_v it_o and_o set_v to_o my_o seal_n to_o promise_v and_o covenant_n with_o thou_o that_o as_o ever_o i_o

and_o so_o my_o strength_n and_o estate_n and_o name_n or_o what_o ever_o i_o be_o or_o have_v shall_v be_v thou_o have_v you_o do_v thus_o when_o you_o have_v come_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n have_v you_o actual_o renew_v your_o covenant_n with_o god_n you_o that_o have_v take_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n have_v you_o give_v up_o your_o body_n to_o christ_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n then_o that_o you_o sin_v so_o much_o with_o your_o body_n that_o you_o abbuse_v your_o body_n with_o uncleanness_n and_o drunkenness_n and_o other_o wickedness_n afterward_o oh_o you_o profane_v the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o the_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o this_o except_o thou_o give_v up_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n to_o god_n in_o way_n of_o covenant_n nine_o in_o the_o last_o place_n for_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_v there_o be_v require_v the_o renew_n of_o love_n the_o come_n with_o lovely_a disposition_n and_o the_o renew_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o love_n not_o only_o towards_o god_n but_o towards_o our_o brethren_n for_o it_o be_v the_o feast_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o communion_n communion_n not_o only_o with_o christ_n but_o with_o his_o church_n with_o his_o saint_n and_o as_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o that_o there_o be_v a_o profession_n of_o ourselves_o to_o be_v of_o the_o same_o body_n with_o jesus_n christ_n than_o

the_o implacable_a enemy_n of_o god_n and_o who_o be_v not_o as_o david_n pray_v against_o judas_n so_o many_o hundred_o year_n before_o he_o be_v bear_v by_o a_o prophetical_a spirit_n he_o know_v

this_o be_v no_o example_n for_o we_o in_o a_o ordinary_a way_n to_o wish_v evil_a and_o curse_n upon_o other_o but_o thus_o far_o we_o may_v do_v with_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o church_n first_o we_o may_v curse_v they_o disjunctive_o lord_n either_o take_v they_o out_o of_o the_o way_n or_o keep_v they_o that_o they_o may_v not_o do_v such_o mischief_n in_o the_o church_n or_o thus_o conditional_o if_o thou_o see_v lord_n that_o they_o be_v implacable_a thou_o know_v they_o if_o so_o let_v thy_o wrath_n and_o curse_n pursue_v they_o lord_n thou_o see_v what_o evil_a they_o be_v set_v upon_o and_o therefore_o rather_o than_o they_o shall_v attain_v their_o mischievous_a design_n let_v thy_o wrath_n and_o curse_n pursue_v they_o so_o we_o may_v do_v it_o but_o not_o absolute_o to_o curse_v any_o though_o they_o shall_v do_v we_o never_o so_o much_o wrong_v we_o be_v call_v to_o blessing_n but_o now_o in_o zeal_n to_o god_n take_v heed_n that_o we_o be_v not_o carry_v on_o in_o our_o own_o passion_n but_o be_v sure_o it_o be_v zeal_n to_o god_n we_o may_v wish_v the_o curse_n of_o god_n to_o pursue_v those_o that_o god_n know_v to_o be_v implacable_a this_o be_v but_o a_o appeal_n to_o god_n and_o not_o at_o all_o fasten_n it_o upon_o any_o particular_a person_n that_o we_o know_v but_o leave_v it_o unto_o god_n for_o the_o execution_n of_o it_o and_o so_o in_o a_o

to_o pray_v for_o the_o come_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o jesus_n christ_n do_v also_o require_v that_o we_o shall_v pray_v against_o all_o mean_n that_o hinder_v the_o come_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o

we_o be_v to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o prayer_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o prayer_n but_o now_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o prayer_n the_o most_o thing_n i_o confess_v be_v there_o first_o when_o we_o come_v to_o prayer_n we_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o pray_v with_o understanding_n 1_o cor._n 14._o 15._o what_o be_v it_o then_o i_o will_v pray_v with_o the_o spirit_n and_o will_v pray_v with_o understand_v also_o god_n do_v not_o love_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o fool_n we_o must_v not_o come_v babble_v to_o god_n in_o prayer_n to_o speak_v we_o know_v not_o what_o and_o to_o multiply_v word_n we_o know_v not_o wherefore_o but_o god_n do_v require_v that_o those_o that_o come_v to_o prayer_n come_v with_o understanding_n that_o they_o offer_v to_o god_n a_o rational_a a_o reasonable_a a_o understand_a sacrifice_n god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o he_o will_v be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n now_o as_o it_o belong_v to_o all_o other_o duty_n of_o worship_n so_o especial_o in_o prayer_n to_o know_v what_o we_o do_v when_o we_o pray_v not_o to_o think_v to_o put_v off_o god_n with_o a_o mere_a empty_a sound_n that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n the_o second_o thing_n in_o the_o manner_n of_o prayer_n it_o be_v the_o giving_z up_o all_o the_o faculty_n of_o our_o soul_n in_o it_o i_o speak_v to_o that_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n in_o general_n we_o shall_v apply_v it_o now_o particular_o to_o prayer_n the_o give_v up_o not_o only_o our_o understanding_n but_o will_n thought_n affection_n strength_n in_o prayer_n in_o 2_o chron._n 20._o 3._o it_o be_v say_v of_o jehoshaphat_n that_o he_o set_v himself_o to_o seek_v the_o lord_n he_o do_v give_v his_o whole_a self_n to_o seek_v the_o lord_n we_o be_v to_o give_v our_o whole_a self_n and_o not_o to_o divide_v in_o prayer_n now_o this_o be_v a_o argument_n that_o indeed_o may_v well_o take_v up_o a_o whole_a sermon_n in_o show_v the_o evil_a of_o the_o wander_a of_o our_o spirit_n in_o prayer_n we_o shall_v take_v heed_n of_o the_o wander_a of_o our_o spirit_n in_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n and_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n and_o so_o in_o prayer_n the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v much_o trouble_v with_o the_o wander_a of_o their_o thought_n both_o in_o word_n and_o sacrament_n and_o it_o be_v their_o great_a burden_n and_o shall_v be_v so_o but_o i_o never_o hear_v any_o more_o complain_n of_o the_o wander_a of_o their_o spirit_n than_o in_o the_o time_n of_o prayer_n the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v much_o pester_v in_o their_o spirit_n with_o this_o evil_a it_o be_v very_o grievous_a unto_o they_o and_o many_o of_o they_o go_v under_o it_o as_o a_o grievous_a burden_n all_o their_o day_n the_o chief_a burden_n that_o be_v upon_o their_o

in_o the_o general_n it_o may_v be_v you_o will_v ask_v something_o for_o the_o church_n but_o if_o it_o be_v for_o yourselves_o you_o will_v put_v up_o this_o petition_n oh_o lord_n that_o i_o may_v

in_o prayer_n but_o even_o in_o the_o very_a duty_n of_o prayer_n many_o time_n have_v wicked_a and_o ungodly_a thought_n how_o horrible_a be_v they_o unclean_a thought_n murderous_a thought_n it_o may_v be_v and_o most_o abominable_a i_o confess_v even_o those_o which_o be_v godly_a may_v sometime_o have_v some_o blasphemous_a thought_n cast_v into_o they_o for_o the_o devil_n be_v never_o

we_o may_v make_v out_o more_o cleerlie_o afterward_o but_o now_o i_o speak_v to_o such_o as_o have_v most_o wicked_a
they_o do_v not_o consider_v that_o god_n do_v converse_v with_o the_o thought_n of_o man_n as_o well_o as_o man_n do_v with_o the_o word_n of_o man_n that_o be_v the_o three_o rule_n four_o take_v heed_n thou_o be_v not_o deceive_v because_o that_o those_o thought_n thou_o have_v in_o prayer_n do_v not_o appear_v to_o be_v very_o evil_a in_o themselves_o this_o be_v a_o great_a deceit_n and_o hinder_v many_o in_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_n in_o prayer_n there_o be_v sometime_o dart_v in_o some_o vain_a thought_n now_o because_o the_o thought_n have_v no_o great_a evil_n in_o itself_o therefore_o they_o think_v they_o may_v play_v with_o it_o and_o their_o heart_n close_o with_o it_o and_o so_o run_v along_o with_o it_o as_o the_o fish_n do_v with_o the_o bait_n if_o the_o devil_n cast_v in_o a_o thought_n of_o blasphemy_n that_o make_v thou_o quake_v and_o shake_v but_o if_o thy_o thought_n have_v no_o great_a evil_n in_o they_o but_o they_o be_v slight_a thing_n matter_n of_o no_o moment_n one_o way_n or_o other_o upon_o that_o thy_o heart_n begin_v to_o be_v dandle_v and_o play_v with_o they_o therefore_o remember_v this_o rule_n that_o in_o the_o time_n of_o prayer_n whatsoever_o thought_n be_v in_o thy_o mind_n that_o do_v not_o concern_v the_o present_a duty_n they_o be_v sinful_a before_o god_n though_o the_o thought_n for_o the_o matter_n of_o they_o be_v never_o so_o good_a yet_o thou_o be_v to_o abandon_v they_o as_o sinful_a at_o that_o time_n therefore_o never_o be_v deceive_v with_o this_o that_o the_o thought_n be_v not_o very_o

close_o to_o a_o duty_n and_o thou_o have_v have_v communion_n with_o he_o bless_v god_n for_o that_o bless_v god_n for_o that_o help_n it_o be_v a_o rule_n of_o very_o great_a use_n for_o we_o to_o
