heart_a sinner_n or_o mortify_v sinner_n as_o soon_o as_o ever_o temptation_n tell_v you_o that_o you_o be_v not_o humble_v enough_o you_o will_v be_v go_v again_o the_o bone_n will_v be_v out_o of_o joint_n again_o and_o so_o you_o will_v be_v as_o a_o reed_n toss_v of_o the_o wind_n you_o will_v never_o be_v fasten_v to_o christ_n whosoever_o hold_v christ_n upon_o any_o qualification_n on_o his_o side_n must_v let_v he_o go_v one_o time_n or_o other_o as_o for_o instance_n if_o he_o think_v the_o gospel_n be_v direct_v to_o break_a heartednes_n and_o he_o can_v weep_v at_o a_o sermon_n to_o morrow_n his_o heart_n may_v be_v hard_a and_o then_o he_o think_v he_o be_v a_o devil_n that_o be_v but_o now_o a_o saint_n therefore_o many_o christian_n after_o many_o year_n profession_n of_o religion_n never_o feel_v their_o soul_n knit_v till_o god_n right_o and_o true_o teach_v they_o this_o lesson_n but_o then_o they_o be_v knit_v to_o christ_n and_o their_o soul_n be_v never_o in_o and_o out_o they_o be_v never_o loose_v more_o because_o they_o be_v able_a in_o all_o temptation_n to_o retreat_n to_o this_o truth_n as_o a_o refuge_n for_o let_v the_o devil_n tell_v a_o man_n he_o be_v no_o saint_n the_o soul_n can_v say_v i_o be_o a_o sinner_n if_o the_o devil_n say_v thou_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n i_o but_o a_o hypocrite_n be_v but_o a_o sinner_n i_o be_o a_o sinner_n still_o though_o i_o be_v not_o a_o break_a heart_a sinner_n so_o let_v the_o devil_n and_o hell_n say_v what_o they_o will_v they_o shall_v never_o beat_v he_o from_o that_o refuge_n and_o say_v the_o soul_n be_v a_o sinner_n i_o be_o the_o proper_a object_n of_o grace_n and_o life_n and_o salvation_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o though_o i_o have_v no_o comfort_n as_o a_o saint_n that_o i_o be_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n yet_o at_o least_o i_o have_v comfort_n that_o i_o be_o a_o sinner_n and_o i_o may_v be_v there_o though_o i_o have_v no_o comfort_n that_o i_o be_o in_o yet_o i_o have_v comfort_n that_o i_o be_o near_o and_o the_o door_n be_v open_a though_o i_o be_v not_o a_o siant_a i_o be_o a_o sinner_n and_o if_o i_o have_v no_o real_a interest_n in_o christ_n as_o a_o saint_n yet_o i_o have_v interest_n in_o the_o promise_n of_o christ_n as_o a_o sinner_n and_o though_o i_o can_v serve_v god_n cheerful_o as_o a_o saint_n yet_o i_o will_v serve_v god_n as_o comfortable_o as_o i_o can_v as_o one_o that_o may_v be_v a_o saint_n in_o matth._n 13._o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o merchant_n man_n he_o find_v the_o field_n wherein_o be_v the_o treasure_n he_o rejoice_v i_o

with_o joy_n as_o a_o sinner_n because_o he_o be_v near_o a_o good_a bargain_n why_o many_o do_v little_a for_o god_n why_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o you_o have_v many_o professor_n that_o mislearne_v the_o first_o principle_n of_o religion_n of_o which_o this_o be_v the_o great_a they_o will_v never_o do_v any_o thing_n for_o god_n but_o when_o they_o be_v assure_v of_o their_o

when_o their_o qualification_n be_v go_v that_o they_o build_v on_o than_o they_o think_v they_o be_v hypocrite_n and_o damn_a creature_n and_o god_n shall_v have_v no_o service_n from_o they_o when_o other_o people_n that_o it_o may_v be_v have_v not_o full_o assurance_n they_o be_v saint_n not_o one_o day_n of_o three_o in_o the_o whole_a year_n yet_o there_o be_v a_o current_n and_o stream_n of_o obedience_n and_o love_n and_o delight_n in_o god_n in_o some_o measure_n and_o they_o go_v on_o constant_o though_o not_o so_o strong_o do_v and_o suffer_v his_o holy_a will_n why_o because_o they_o have_v learn_v the_o gospel_n aright_o they_o obey_v god_n in_o the_o notion_n of_o sinner_n say_v the_o soul_n i_o see_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o love_n in_o god_n to_o poor_a sinner_n and_o the_o gospel_n contain_v nothing_o but_o glad_a tiding_n to_o sinner_n and_o though_o i_o have_v nothing_o in_o i_o that_o may_v make_v i_o the_o child_n of_o christ_n yet_o the_o way_n be_v open_a therefore_o i_o will_v go_v on_o with_o the_o work_n let_v he_o do_v what_o he_o will_n thus_o the_o soul_n be_v knit_v to_o christ_n that_o come_v what_o will_v it_o will_v never_o be_v beat_v off_o from_o christ_n i_o never_o know_v my_o own_o soul_n knit_v to_o christ_n till_o god_n have_v teach_v i_o this_o but_o it_o be_v off_o and_o on_o as_o a_o bone_n in_o and_o out_o a_o saint_n to_o

apostle_n bid_v they_o do_v all_o thing_n decent_o and_o in_o order_n they_o have_v before_o in_o prophes●ing_v speak_v three_o or_o four_o at_o once_o so_o they_o miss_v of_o the_o end_n the_o church_n be_v not_o edify_v second_o they_o make_v the_o gift_n of_o some_o vain_a they_o justle_v and_o put_v out_o one_o another_o so_o when_o you_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n or_o any_o

than_o it_o be_v do_v orderly_o so_o this_o be_v the_o sense_n there_o be_v many_o thing_n that_o be_v lawful_a but_o be_v not_o expedient_a that_o be_v many_o lawful_a thing_n if_o i_o do_v they_o at_o such_o a_o time_n i_o shall_v do_v they_o disorderly_o as_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o you_o to_o speak_v but_o if_o you_o speak_v while_o i_o be_o a_o preach_n it_o be_v disorderly_a for_o we_o shall_v not_o attain_v the_o end_n of_o preach_v you_o will_v put_v i_o out_o and_o make_v but_o a_o squabble_n so_o put_v these_o four_o general_a rule_n together_o &_o you_o understand_v the_o doctrine_n that_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v lawful_a be_v not_o expedient_a if_o i_o be_v not_o desirous_a to_o make_v a_o end_n of_o this_o i_o can_v prove_v the_o doctrine_n though_o it_o need_v not_o much_o proof_n by_o scripture_n and_o by_o parallel_v it_o with_o other_o thing_n with_o natural_a thing_n as_o in_o the_o civil_a law_n many_o thing_n be_v lawful_a that_o be_v not_o

than_o my_o wife_n but_o it_o be_v not_o convenient_a it_o be_v lawful_a for_o a_o man_n to_o sleep_v all_o day_n and_o to_o work_v all_o night_n i_o mean_v by_o the_o law_n of_o england_n but_o it_o be_v not_o convenient_a there_o be_v abundance_n of_o thing_n that_o be_v lawful_a for_o the_o saint_n that_o be_v no_o way_n expedient_a for_o they_o to_o do_v but_o i_o pass_v that_o and_o hasten_v to_o the_o use_n and_o application_n brief_o a_o word_n at_o this_o time_n use_v expedient_a to_o eye_n what_o be_v expedient_a and_o leave_v the_o rest_n for_o another_o time_n from_o this_o that_o have_v be_v say_v learn_v this_o use_n which_o be_v the_o three_o doctrine_n but_o for_o brevity_n i_o make_v it_o the_o use_n or_o the_o application_n of_o all_o that_o this_o be_v so_o that_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v lawful_a be_v not_o expedient_a than_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o christian_n to_o eye_n and_o observe_v not_o only_o i_o have_v almost_o say_v not_o so_o much_o but_o certain_o not_o only_a to_o eye_n what_o be_v lawful_a but_o in_o all_o their_o way_n to_o look_v what_o be_v expedient_a that_o be_v to_o see_v that_o it_o be_v orderly_o convenient_a laudable_a lovely_a &_o of_o good_a report_n else_o though_o it_o be_v lawful_a meddle_v not_o with_o it_o therefore_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o the_o apostle_n in_o all_o these_o question_n from_o the_o seven_o chapter_n to_o the_o middle_n of_o the_o eleaventh_n as_o you_o have_v many_o question_n and_o in_o all_o or_o most_o of_o those_o the_o apostle_n divert_v the_o question_n they_o ask_v he_o if_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o marry_v and_o be_v marry_v if_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o put_v away_o their_o wife_n and_o if_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o eat_v meat_n offer_v to_o idol_n the_o apostle_n do_v not_o punctual_o answer_v to_o one_o of_o they_o whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a or_o no_o but_o show_n what_o be_v convenient_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v in_o all_o these_o and_o whatsoever_o else_o eye_n what_o be_v convenient_a and_o expedient_a as_o much_o and_o sometime_o more_o than_o what_o be_v lawful_a lawful_a reproof_n of_o those_o that_o only_a regard_n what_o be_v
