do_v great_o provoke_v the_o lord_n christ_n and_o loose_v all_o they_o do_v though_o man_n can_v walk_v as_o exact_o as_o the_o very_a angel_n yet_o if_o that_o exactness_n shall_v draw_v they_o to_o

and_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o most_o mortify_a man_n live_v if_o the_o devil_n can_v but_o draw_v they_o off_o from_o christ_n righteousness_n thereby_o and_o place_v their_o righteousness_n in_o

a_o little_a by_o way_n of_o application_n application_n oh_o that_o this_o may_v be_v a_o warn_a piece_n to_o we_o to_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o do_v not_o exalt_v any_o thing_n of_o man_n in_o the_o room_n of_o christ_n take_v heed_n we_o do_v not_o exalt_v our_o rule_n above_o christ_n rule_n that_o we_o do_v not_o form_v rule_n to_o ourselves_o to_o walk_v by_o and_o to_o worship_n by_o and_o decline_v the_o rule_n and_o institution_n and_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o people_n that_o be_v and_o will_v be_v find_v guilty_a of_o this_o rule_n who_o shall_v

christ_n form_n there_o have_v be_v such_o a_o generation_n of_o man_n in_o this_o land_n and_o still_o there_o be_v who_o have_v such_o idol_n in_o their_o heart_n who_o set_v up_o their_o form_n above_o christ_n form_n christ_n have_v leave_v a_o rule_n and_o christ_n have_v give_v his_o form_n and_o his_o institution_n which_o must_v be_v observe_v till_o his_o come_n but_o now_o when_o

a_o great_a provocation_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o such_o a_o people_n can_v enjoy_v the_o spiritual_a presence_n of_o christ_n for_o ●ait●_n christ_n go_v teach_v and_o observe_v what_o i_o have_v command_v you_o and_o lo_o i_o be_o with_o you_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n so_o long_o as_o a_o people_n cleave_v to_o christ_n institution_n so_o long_o they_o be_v under_o the_o promise_n

something_o of_o their_o own_o in_o the_o stead_n of_o christ_n rule_n rule_n while_o they_o pretend_v that_o they_o have_v another_o rule_n then_o the_o word_n to_o walk_v by_o the_o other_o be_v more_o gross_a and_o carnal_a but_o this_o more_o spiritual_o wicked_a i_o say_v when_o man_n shall_v pretend_v to_o have_v another_o rule_n to_o walk_v by_o that_o they_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o be_v their_o rule_n to_o teach_v they_o and_o they_o shall_v not_o look_v to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o scripture_n not_o look_v to_o any_o rule_n without_o they_o true_o both_o these_o sort_n of_o man_n will_v be_v find_v to_o set_v up_o their_o own_o rule_n above_o christ_n rule_n and_o oh_o how_o dangerous_a be_v it_o and_o as_o i_o say_v before_o so_o again_o and_o oh_o that_o it_o may_v be_v remember_v it_o be_v a_o pull_v christ_n out_o of_o his_o throne_n for_o man_n to_o decline_v his_o rule_n the_o rule_n of_o his_o word_n which_o he_o have_v give_v they_o to_o

it_o be_v remember_v what_o the_o lord_n threaten_v to_o such_o as_o will_v not_o hear_v the_o great_a prophet_n deut._n 18._o 15._o and_o 19_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n will_v raise_v up_o unto_o

that_o will_v not_o walk_v by_o that_o rule_n that_o christ_n have_v leave_v in_o his_o word_n to_o walk_v by_o but_o shall_v take_v another_o rule_n though_o the_o pretence_n be_v never_o so_o high_a and_o spiritual_a the_o lord_n have_v say_v that_o such_o a_o soul_n shall_v be_v cu●_n off_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o afford_v his_o presence_n christ_n will_v not_o continue_v his_o presence_n with_o such_o a_o people_n as_o shall_v exalt_v any_o invention_n above_o christ_n rule_n the_o rule_n of_o the_o word_n but_o it_o may_v be_v that_o they_o will_v say_v object_n they_o do_v not_o

their_o rule_n to_o walk_v by_o and_o they_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o attend_v to_o any_o rule_n whatsoever_o that_o be_v without_o they_o but_o to_o walk_v by_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o be_v within_o they_o to_o who_o answ_n i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o great_a mistake_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o we_o shall_v be_v a_o rule_n for_o we_o to_o walk_v by_o the_o spirit_n be_v not_o the_o rule_n the_o spirit_n be_v give_v to_o open_v the_o rule_n the_o spirit_n be_v give_v to_o shine_v upon_o the_o rule_n to_o declare_v the_o rule_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o the_o rule_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o we_o can_v know_v the_o rule_n at_o least_o in_o the_o spiritual_a nature_n of_o it_o till_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n do_v

great_a mistake_n while_o man_n think_v that_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o rule_n when_o as_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o rule_n to_o the_o law_n and_o to_o the_o testimony_n if_o any_o man_n walk_v not_o according_a to_o this_o rule_n and_o so_o christ_n tell_v his_o disciple_n that_o the_o spirit_n be_v not_o give_v to_o manifest_v and_o discover_v any_o new_a thing_n but_o what_o

for_o the_o soul_n of_o our_o servant_n and_o so_o back_o again_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o servant_n to_o pray_v for_o their_o master_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v the_o four_o particular_a that_o
