beam_n of_o these_o be_v hinder_v yet_o there_o be_v coal_n of_o fire_n in_o the_o heart_n and_o the_o body_n of_o these_o be_v there_o the_o flame_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o feeling_n &_o sense_n of_o it_o may_v be_v quench_v for_o a_o time_n in_o the_o seconda-grace_n thereof_o but_o yet_o the_o spirit_n it_o self_n and_o the_o cardinal_a grace_n thereof_o remain_v still_o in_o the_o heart_n it_o may_v be_v in_o this_o as_o in_o that_o case_n isa_n 6.13_o as_o a_o teyle_n tree_n and_o as_o a_o oak_n who_o substance_n be_v in_o they_o when_o they_o cast_v their_o leaf_n a_o oak_n may_v

wood_n though_o a_o man_n have_v the_o radical_a grace_n yet_o little_a comfort_n in_o they_o during_o the_o want_n of_o the_o other_o because_o whilst_o these_o secondary_a grace_n be_v want_v it_o bring_v the_o conscience_n to_o question_v the_o presence_n and_o truth_n of_o the_o primary_n one_o the_o want_n of_o the_o leaf_n make_v the_o conscience_n question_v the_o life_n of_o grace_n if_o there_o be_v any_o comfort_n in_o such_o a_o case_n what_o need_v david_n have_v the_o spirit_n beg_v to_o have_v his_o joy_n restore_v and_o what_o make_v afflict_v conscience_n in_o time_n of_o

carnal_a security_n 2._o according_a to_o the_o second_o distinction_n first_o there_o be_v the_o infuse_a habit_n of_o faith_n hope_n love_n these_o habit_n can_v be_v lose_v and_o so_o in_o regard_n of_o these_o habit_n the_o spirit_n can_v be_v quench_v second_o there_o be_v the_o act_n use_v and_o exercise_v of_o they_o in_o that_o regard_n the_o spirit_n may_v be_v quench_v for_o though_o the_o habit_n of_o faith_n can_v be_v kill_v yet_o the_o act_n use_v and_o exercise_v of_o it_o may_v be_v deaden_v so_o as_o it_o may_v not_o for_o the_o present_a act_n and_o work_v and_o a_o man_n not_o use_v it_o a_o man_n in_o his_o drunkenness_n lose_v the_o use_n but_o not_o the_o faculty_n of_o reason_n a_o man_n in_o his_o sleep_n lose_v the_o use_n but_o not_o the_o faculty_n of_o his_o sense_n sin_n and_o temptation_n may_v as_o much_o distemper_n the_o soul_n as_o wine_n and_o strong_a drink_n may_v do_v the_o brain_n 3._o for_o the_o measure_n and_o degree_n in_o that_o regard_n the_o spirit_n may_v be_v quench_v a_o man_n may_v come_v to_o have_v a_o less_o degree_n of_o faith_n hope_n love_n a_o less_o degree_n of_o joy_n and_o zeal_n the_o degree_n of_o these_o may_v be_v abate_v and_o yet_o the_o thing_n themselves_o remain_v apoc._n 2.4_o it_o be_v lay_v to_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o angel_n of_o ephesus_n that_o he_o have_v lose_v his_o first_o love_n he_o say_v not_o he_o have_v lose_v his_o love_n or_o all_o his_o love_n but_o his_o first_o love_n that_o degree_n of_o love_n he_o have_v at_o first_o he_o have_v love_n still_o but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o fervent_a as_o before_o it_o be_v abate_v in_o the_o degree_n of_o it_o and_o so_o the_o spirit_n be_v quench_v in_o degree_n so_o then_o look_v upon_o the_o habit_n of_o grace_n and_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o habit_n there_o be_v no_o amission_n of_o grace_n look_v upon_o the_o act_n and_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o act_n there_o may_v be_v a_o intermission_n of_o it_o look_v upon_o the_o degree_n and_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o degree_n there_o may_v be_v a_o remission_n a_o remission_n of_o degree_n a_o intermission_n of_o act_n but_o no_o utter_a amission_n of_o habit_n of_o fundamental_a save_v sanctify_a grace_n and_o thus_o have_v open_v and_o clear_v the_o text_n come_v we_o now_o to_o some_o observation_n and_o here_o first_o begin_v with_o the_o metaphor_n quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n and_o out_o of_o it_o learn_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o spirit_n of_o grace_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o fire_n so_o much_o the_o word_n quench_v imply_v for_o nothing_o be_v proper_o quench_v but_o fire_n quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n be_v as_o much_o as_o quench_v not_o the_o fire_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n than_o be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o fire_n mat._n 3.11_o he_o shall_v baptize_v you_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n that_o be_v with_o the_o holy_a spirit_n which_o be_v as_o fire_n mar._n 9.49_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v salt_v with_o fire_n what_o fire_n as_o the_o fire_n of_o affliction_n and_o the_o the_o fire_n of_o the_o word_n so_o the_o fire_n of_o the_o spirit_n act._n 2.3_o 4._o there_o appear_v to_o they_o cleave_a tongue_n with_o fire_n and_o they_o be_v all_o fill_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n sometime_o the_o spirit_n be_v compare_v to_o water_n isa_n 44.3_o and_o sometime_o again_o to_o fire_n as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v a_o fire_n jer._n 23._o be_v not_o my_o word_n a_o fire_n so_o be_v his_o spirit_n a_o fire_n be_v not_o my_o spirit_n a_o fire_n and_o the_o spirit_n be_v compare_v to_o fire_n in_o these_o regard_n 1._o first_o fire_n it_o give_v light_a and_o therefore_o in_o the_o want_n of_o the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n we_o make_v use_v of_o fire_n

be_v to_o keep_v the_o fire_n burn_v it_o be_v a_o fond_a thing_n for_o a_o man_n to_o quench_v his_o fire_n and_o then_o think_v to_o keep_v himself_o still_o warm_a it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o this_o man_n complain_v of_o cold_a that_o have_v let_v his_o fire_n go_v out_o or_o have_v himself_o quench_v and_o extinguish_v it_o and_o thus_o we_o have_v the_o coherence_n of_o these_o word_n with_o the_o former_a now_o for_o the_o word_n quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n in_o they_o there_o be_v a_o metaphor_n and_o a_o metonymy_n the_o metaphor_n in_o the_o word_n quench_v quench_v proper_o be_v of_o fire_n when_o the_o light_n and_o heat_n of_o fire_n be_v abate_v and_o put_v out_o we_o use_v to_o say_v it_o be_v quench_v and_o hence_o be_v this_o word_n borrow_v to_o signify_v the_o abate_n decay_a or_o extinguish_v of_o the_o spirit_n the_o metonymy_n be_v in_o the_o word_n spirit_n spirit_n be_v take_v i._o for_o the_o essence_n of_o the_o deity_n so_o john_n 4._o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n it_o be_v not_o so_o take_v here_o ii_o for_o the_o three_o person_n in_o the_o trinity_n the_o holy_a ghost_n 1_o john_n 5.7_o the_o father_n the_o word_n and_o the_o holy_a spirit_n this_o be_v not_o mean_v here_o iii_o for_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v here_o mean_v quench_v not_o the_o gift_n and_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n now_o the_o spirit_n in_o this_o sense_n be_v take_v diverse_o 1._o first_o for_o the_o gift_n of_o prophecy_n 1_o sam._n 10.6.10_o then_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v come_v upon_o thou_o and_o the_o spirit_n

infuse_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n now_o concern_v these_o grace_n of_o sanctification_n we_o must_v remember_v two_o distinction_n distinct_a 1._o some_o sanctify_a grace_n be_v radical_a original_a fundamental_a grace_n primary_n grace_n as_o they_o may_v be_v call_v which_o be_v the_o immediate_a work_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o faith_n hope_n love_n other_o be_v secondary_a grace_n issue_v and_o flow_v from_o these_o which_o though_o the_o spirit_n work_v too_o yet_o it_o work_v by_o these_o such_o be_v joy_n which_o arise_v from_o faith_n rom._n 14._o fill_v your_o heart_n with_o joy_n in_o all_o believe_a such_o be_v confidence_n arise_v from_o hope_n such_o be_v zeal_n and_o fervour_n of_o spirit_n arise_v from_o love_n these_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o lustre_n the_o shine_n the_o radiancy_n of_o the_o radical_a fundamental_a grace_n they_o be_v the_o flame_n of_o they_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o coal_n of_o fire_n that_o lie_v on_o the_o hearth_n and_o the_o flame_n of_o the_o fire_n which_o be_v kindle_v from_o the_o coal_n on_o the_o hearth_n when_o a_o man_n faith_n cause_v joy_n than_o faith_n flame_n when_o his_o hope_n breed_v confidence_n then_o hope_v flame_n and_o when_o a_o man_n love_n make_v he_o zealous_a than_o his_o love_n flame_n and_o burn_v out_o they_o be_v like_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n faith_n hope_n love_n they_o the_o body_n joy_n confidence_n zeal_n they_o the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n 2._o distinct_a we_o must_v consider_v in_o the_o sanctify_a grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n 3._o thing_n 1._o there_o be_v the_o gift_n themselves_o the_o habit_n infuse_v the_o habit_n of_o faith_n hope_n and_o love_n 2._o there_o be_v the_o use_n and_o exercise_n and_o

gracious_a excitement_n to_o duty_n the_o spirit_n blow_v where_o it_o list_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o breathe_n and_o the_o blast_n of_o it_o and_o this_o be_v also_o here_o mean_v now_o see_v what_o spirit_n signify_v we_o be_v to_o inquire_v in_o what_o sense_n and_o after_o what_o sort_n the_o spirit_n may_v be_v quench_v quench_v it_o may_v be_v or_o else_o the_o counsel_n be_v in_o vain_a not_o to_o quench_v it_o and_o again_o if_o it_o may_v be_v quench_v it_o may_v be_v a_o uncomfortable_a thing_n what_o comfort_n can_v a_o man_n have_v in_o have_v god_n spirit_n if_o it_o may_v be_v lose_v what_o comfort_n to_o have_v this_o fire_n kindle_v in_o our_o heart_n if_o so_o be_v it_o be_v a_o quenchable_a fire_n therefore_o for_o the_o clear_n of_o this_o point_n we_o must_v know_v 1._o first_o take_v the_o spirit_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n that_o may_v be_v quench_v and_o lose_v and_o so_o for_o the_o gift_n of_o government_n ministry_n etc._n etc._n this_o spirit_n may_v be_v quench_v a_o man_n may_v have_v such_o gift_n much_o decay_v and_o abate_v yea_o a_o man_n may_v whole_o lose_v such_o gift_n as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o saul_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v upon_o he_o so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o he_o that_o ihe_a spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n depart_v from_o he_o 1_o sam._n 16.14_o second_o take_v the_o spirit_n for_o the_o gift_n &_o common_a grace_n of_o illumination_n and_o so_o the_o spirit_n may_v be_v quench_v and_o utter_o extinguish_v so_o as_o such_o may_v quite_o lose_v that_o grace_n that_o look_v like_o grace_n and_o come_v very_o near_o a_o save_a grace_n if_o they_o fall_v away_o heb._n 6._o therefore_o man_n may_v have_v all_o that_o there_o be_v speak_v of_o which_o fall_n away_o three_o take_v the_o spirit_n for_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n and_o then_o make_v use_n of_o this_o first_o distinction_n and_o according_a to_o it_o the_o radical_a and_o fundamental_a grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n such_o as_o faith_n hope_n love_n can_v be_v whole_o &_o total_o extinguish_v where_o once_o they_o be_v wrought_v in_o the_o heart_n but_o yet_o their_o lustre_n their_o radiancy_n their_o
