behold_v here_o now_o the_o spirit_n work_v behold_v how_o sin_n be_v correct_v and_o who_o so_o can_v behold_v here_o this_o in_o himself_o may_v assure_o say_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v in_o he_o that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o vain_a in_o he_o it_o be_v myghtie_a and_o lively_a in_o operation_n in_o his_o hart_n and_o the_o third_o note_n and_o effect_n be_v the_o bring_v forward_o of_o this_o work_n unto_o justification_n for_o when_o as_o the_o spirit_n have_v bring_v we_o thus_o far_o then_o do_v it_o begin_v to_o open_v unto_o we_o a_o door_n unto_o the_o grace_n &_o favour_n of_o god_n it_o do_v put_v it_o into_o our_o mind_n that_o there_o be_v mercy_n with_o god_n and_o therefore_o styr_v we_o up_o to_o seek_v mercy_n at_o his_o hand_n after_o that_o it_o do_v let_v we_o see_v how_o christ_n suffer_v to_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n that_o in_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n we_o may_v look_v to_o be_v justify_v before_o god_n and_o this_o it_o do_v not_o let_v we_o see_v only_o but_o do_v effectual_o work_v a_o sure_a persuasion_n of_o it_o in_o our_o heart_n and_o confirm_v the_o same_o by_o two_o notable_a effect_n the_o first_o be_v a_o joy_n unspeakable_a and_o glorious_a wherewith_o our_o heart_n must_v needs_o be_v take_v up_o and_o ravish_v when_o we_o see_v ourselves_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n the_o free_a mercy_n and_o grace_n of_o god_n redeem_v from_o death_n delyver_v from_o hell_n and_o free_v from_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o wicked_a the_o second_o be_v the_o peace_n of_o conscience_n which_o in_o deed_n pass_v all_o understanding_n while_o sin_n and_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n remain_v there_o be_v no_o peace_n no_o rest_n no_o quietness_n to_o be_v find_v but_o fear_v with_o terror_n without_o and_o trouble_n on_o every_o side_n but_o when_o sin_n be_v once_o nail_v to_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n when_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n be_v take_v out_o of_o our_o conscience_n and_o the_o punishment_n thereof_o far_o remove_v then_o must_v needs_o ensue_v great_a peace_n for_o our_o enemy_n dare_v not_o proceed_v against_o we_o our_o sin_n be_v forgive_v we_o and_o god_n be_v at_o one_o with_o we_o and_o for_o this_o we_o have_v the_o warrant_n and_o testimony_n of_o the_o spirit_n can_v flesh_n and_o blood_n persuade_v we_o of_o it_o can_v any_o creature_n assure_v we_o how_o god_n be_v affect_v towards_o we_o no_o doubtless_o and_o therefore_o where_o this_o joy_n and_o this_o peace_n be_v there_o must_v needs_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o author_n and_o worker_n of_o the_o same_o for_o as_o no_o man_n know_v what_o be_v in_o man_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n which_o be_v in_o he_o so_o none_o know_v the_o will_n of_o god_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o must_v certify_v our_o heart_n and_o spirit_n of_o the_o same_o and_o hereof_o do_v arise_v that_o which_o we_o take_v as_o the_o note_n when_o we_o see_v in_o ourselves_o to_o wit_n the_o baseness_n and_o unablenesse_n that_o be_v in_o we_o to_o do_v good_a for_o when_o a_o man_n do_v find_v favour_n with_o god_n from_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n than_o the_o love_n of_o god_n constrain_v he_o that_o joy_n which_o he_o conceive_v enforce_v he_o and_o put_v life_n into_o he_o for_o the_o performance_n of_o these_o thing_n which_o be_v please_v unto_o god_n then_o he_o begin_v to_o find_v himself_o not_o only_o retain_v from_o evyll_n but_o apply_v and_o frame_v to_o that_o which_o be_v good_a then_o be_v his_o understanding_n inlyghten_v to_o see_v into_o the_o mystery_n of_o godliness_n and_o into_o the_o great_a rock_n of_o his_o redemption_n and_o into_o whatsoever_o concern_v the_o save_a health_n of_o his_o soul_n then_o be_v his_o judgement_n reform_v and_o he_o be_v make_v able_a to_o judge_v between_o false_a religion_n and_o pure_a between_o the_o work_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o spirit_n that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o that_o which_o be_v evyll_n and_o displease_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n then_o be_v his_o affection_n in_o some_o good_a measure_n alter_v his_o desire_n be_v set_v not_o upon_o earthly_a but_o upon_o heavenly_a thing_n his_o joy_n be_v not_o in_o the_o earth_n but_o in_o the_o heaven_n his_o anger_n be_v waste_v and_o spend_v not_o upon_o his_o own_o private_a cause_n and_o quarrel_n but_o upon_o his_o own_o sin_n and_o whatsoever_o hinder_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o god_n this_o be_v the_o life_n of_o god_n in_o he_o thus_o he_o lyve_v that_o have_v receyve_v the_o spirit_n and_o thus_o he_o lead_v his_o life_n continual_o for_o they_o that_o have_v receyve_v the_o spirit_n be_v lead_v by_o the_o spirit_n and_o do_v live_v according_o bryng_v forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o this_o have_v weakness_n join_v with_o it_o and_o man_n through_o frailty_n may_v fall_v and_o therefore_o their_o life_n be_v say_v to_o be_v hide_v in_o christ_n because_o in_o full_a and_o perfect_a manner_n it_o do_v not_o appear_v therefore_o if_o notwith_o stand_v these_o frailty_n and_o fall_n we_o will_v know_v whether_o we_o still_o retain_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n we_o must_v search_v ourselves_o and_o try_v our_o heart_n by_o these_o rule_n first_o if_o through_o frailty_n we_o have_v fall_v for_o who_o be_v he_o that_o fall_v not_o if_o we_o will_v then_o know_v whether_o by_o our_o fall_n we_o have_v lose_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n let_v we_o see_v what_o like_n or_o mislike_v we_o have_v of_o sin_n for_o if_o after_o our_o fall_n we_o do_v hold_v our_o form_a hatred_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o more_o we_o fall_v the_o more_o through_o deadly_a hatred_n we_o conceive_v against_o sin_n undoubted_o the_o frailty_n have_v not_o as_o yet_o deprive_v we_o of_o the_o spirit_n second_o come_v and_o see_v how_o it_o stand_v with_o thy_o sorrow_n for_o so_o long_o as_o this_o sorrow_n increase_v for_o thy_o sin_n it_o can_v be_v think_v that_o sin_n and_o the_o flesh_n have_v utter_o quench_v the_o spirit_n in_o thou_o three_o try_v thy_o care_n and_o if_o thou_o groan_v in_o a_o godly_a care_n both_o how_o thou_o may_v be_v able_a to_o wage_v battle_n in_o the_o plain_a field_n with_o sin_n and_o how_o thou_o may_v prevent_v he_o in_o all_o his_o policy_n thou_o have_v a_o further_a assurance_n that_o sin_n although_o it_o be_v as_o great_a as_o goliath_n yet_o it_o have_v not_o prevail_v against_o thy_o poor_a and_o little_a david_n i_o say_v against_o those_o few_o and_o small_a grace_n which_o the_o good_a spirtie_a of_o god_n have_v bestow_v upon_o thou_o but_o the_o last_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a and_o that_o be_v this_o when_o thou_o be_v careful_a to_o redeem_v that_o which_o by_o thy_o fall_n thou_o have_v lose_v and_o have_v a_o care_n to_o run_v so_o much_o fast_a forward_o by_o how_o much_o more_o thou_o have_v be_v let_v by_o thy_o fall_n than_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o the_o spirit_n be_v in_o thou_o yea_o lyvely_a and_o mighty_a in_o operation_n and_o such_o as_o shall_v never_o be_v take_v from_o the_o untyll_o the_o day_n of_o christ._n thus_o may_v we_o in_o some_o good_a and_o competent_a measure_n prove_v whether_o we_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n or_o no_o for_o where_o the_o fruit_n be_v to_o be_v find_v there_o be_v also_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o further_a confirmation_n whereof_o we_o may_v note_v the_o manner_n of_o speech_n where_o he_o say_v quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n we_o do_v common_o say_v the_o fire_n be_v quench_v where_o the_o light_n and_o heat_n there_o of_o be_v take_v away_o and_o in_o deed_n nothing_o can_v proper_o be_v say_v to_o be_v quench_v but_o the_o fire_n now_o whereas_o the_o apostle_n say_v quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n he_o give_v we_o to_o understande_v that_o the_o spirit_n be_v in_o some_o respect_n like_o unto_o fire_n therefore_o if_o we_o do_v but_o a_o little_a consider_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o fire_n we_o shall_v the_o better_a judge_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o among_o other_o we_o find_v these_o property_n of_o fire_n first_o it_o will_v consume_v thing_n consumeable_a and_o therefore_o lyght_a upon_o straw_n or_o stubble_n or_o such_o like_a it_o bring_v they_o to_o ash_n second_o it_o do_v purge_v and_o purify_v those_o thing_n that_o can_v abide_v to_o be_v purge_v and_o this_o it_o do_v first_o by_o take_v away_o the_o superfluity_n of_o dross_n that_o have_v over_o cover_v the_o thing_n to_o be_v purge_v second_o by_o make_v the_o thing_n itself_o pure_a &_o pure_a three_o it_o geve_v light_a in_o the_o dark_a place_n but_o last_o of_o all_o it_o geve_v heat_n
