or_o no._n now_o that_o a_o man_n may_v know_v this_o the_o better_a i_o will_v make_v it_o clear_a by_o this_o example_n take_v a_o bottle_n that_o be_v full_a of_o water_n and_o another_o that_o be_v full_a of_o aquavitae_n look_v upon_o they_o outward_o and_o they_o be_v all_o one_o in_o colour_n but_o if_o you_o taste_v the_o one_o be_v hot_a and_o lively_a but_o the_o other_o be_v cold_a and_o raw_a so_o if_o you_o look_v unto_o the_o outward_a formal_a action_n of_o wicked_a man_n they_o have_v the_o same_o colour_n that_o the_o action_n of_o the_o holy_a man_n have_v but_o if_o you_o taste_v they_o examine_v their_o life_n and_o search_v into_o their_o heart_n you_o shall_v find_v a_o great_a difference_n the_o one_o of_o they_o it_o may_v be_v may_v seem_v to_o have_v life_n and_o heat_n in_o they_o but_o they_o want_v the_o spirit_n for_o they_o have_v neither_o a_o loathe_n of_o sin_n nor_o power_n to_o resist_v sin_n they_o may_v put_v a_o false_a colour_n upon_o their_o action_n but_o it_o will_v not_o hold_v they_o may_v restrain_v some_o lust_n for_o some_o end_n but_o such_o can_v master_v and_o subdue_v they_o and_o it_o may_v heat_v a_o part_n of_o his_o heart_n but_o it_o can_v heat_v all_o his_o heart_n but_o where_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n come_v it_o heat_v all_o the_o soul_n kindle_v a_o holy_a fire_n in_o all_o the_o faculty_n to_o burn_v up_o sin_n which_o be_v there_o and_o this_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o john_n baptist_n baptism_n and_o the_o baptism_n of_o christ._n john_n will_v baptize_v they_o with_o water_n but_o christ_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o with_o fire_n therefore_o examine_v what_o heat_n there_o be_v in_o you_o against_o evil_n and_o what_o zeal_n there_o be_v in_o you_o to_o good_a be_v you_o cold_a in_o prayer_n in_o conference_n in_o the_o communion_n of_o saint_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o you_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n it_o may_v be_v you_o hear_v and_o read_v and_o pray_v and_o confer_v but_o see_v with_o what_o heat_n you_o do_v they_o be_v it_o with_o you_o in_o these_o thing_n as_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v you_o to_o be_v in_o earthly_a 1_o cor._n 7._o 30._o 31._o to_o sorrow_n as_o if_o you_o sorrow_v not_o to_o use_v the_o world_n as_o if_o you_o use_v it_o not_o do_v you_o perform_v holy_a 31._o duty_n with_o that_o coldness_n as_o if_o you_o care_v not_o whether_o you_o do_v they_o or_o do_v they_o not_o do_v you_o hear_v as_o if_o you_o hear_v not_o and_o do_v you_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n as_o if_o you_o receive_v it_o not_o and_o do_v you_o pray_v as_o if_o you_o pray_v not_o and_o do_v you_o love_v as_o if_o you_o love_v it_o not_o then_o sure_o you_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a if_o you_o find_v spiritual_a heat_n and_o zeal_n in_o you_o a_o nimbleness_n and_o quickness_n to_o good_a it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o you_o have_v the_o spirit_n for_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o heat_v the_o soul_n therefore_o the_o prophet_n say_v that_o the_o zeal_n of_o thy_o house_n have_v even_o eat_v i_o up_o intimate_v i_o have_v such_o a_o measure_n of_o zeal_n wrought_v in_o i_o by_o thy_o spirit_n that_o i_o can_v see_v thou_o in_o the_o least_o measure_n dishonour_v but_o i_o must_v burn_v with_o zeal_n therefore_o examine_v what_o zeal_n you_o have_v for_o god_n and_o godliness_n be_v you_o hot_a for_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n and_o cold_a for_o grace_n and_o holiness_n whatsoever_o you_o think_v of_o yourselves_o yet_o you_o have_v not_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n there_o be_v not_o a_o holy_a man_n or_o woman_n that_o belong_v unto_o christ_n but_o they_o have_v this_o holy_a fire_n in_o they_o and_o yet_o i_o will_v not_o have_v you_o to_o mistake_v i_o as_o if_o every_o christian_a do_v attain_v unto_o the_o like_a heat_n and_o zeal_n as_o other_o do_v for_o you_o must_v know_v that_o some_o have_v more_o some_o have_v less_o according_a unto_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n that_o they_o have_v but_o this_o you_o must_v know_v that_o you_o must_v be_v full_a of_o heat_n full_a in_o some_o measure_n answerable_a unto_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n but_o if_o you_o find_v no_o heat_n at_o all_o in_o you_o than_o you_o have_v not_o a_o grain_n of_o the_o spirit_n not_o to_o be_v hot_a be_v to_o be_v lukewarm_a and_o lukewarmenesse_a be_v that_o which_o god_n hate_v it_o be_v a_o temper_n mix_v which_o be_v both_o loathsome_a to_o nature_n and_o odious_a to_o god_n revel_v 3._o 15._o the_o laodicean_n be_v neither_o hot_a nor_o cold_a but_o lukewarm_a that_o be_v they_o have_v neither_o heat_n 15._o to_o good_a nor_o so_o cold_a as_o to_o forsake_v the_o truth_n sin_n and_o holiness_n stand_v in_o aequilibrio_fw-la together_o and_o they_o have_v as_o good_a a_o mind_n unto_o the_o one_o as_o unto_o the_o other_o now_o because_o it_o be_v thus_o with_o they_o therefore_o say_v god_n i_o will_v spew_v they_o cut_v and_o then_o in_o the_o next_o verse_n he_o exhort_v they_o to_o be_v zealous_a and_o amend_v except_o you_o labour_v to_o be_v hot_a in_o the_o spirit_n you_o can_v be_v save_v titus_n 2._o 14._o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o christ_n die_v that_o he_o may_v purchase_v unto_o himself_o a_o people_n zealous_a of_o good_a work_n this_o zeal_n must_v not_o be_v a_o constrain_a zeal_n but_o a_o willing_a zeal_n and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o other_o motive_n to_o move_v man_n to_o be_v zealous_a but_o this_o because_o christ_n come_v to_o redeem_v they_o for_o this_o end_n that_o they_o may_v be_v zealous_a for_o his_o glory_n if_o there_o be_v any_o spark_n of_o the_o fire_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o he_o it_o will_v burn_v at_o christ_n dishonour_n and_o if_o christ_n come_v unto_o this_o end_n to_o make_v man_n zealous_a then_o sure_o christ_n will_v not_o loose_v his_o end_n but_o they_o that_o christ_n will_v save_v shall_v be_v zealous_a therefore_o i_o beseech_v you_o labour_n to_o be_v strong_a in_o the_o inward_a man_n and_o labour_n to_o get_v the_o spirit_n that_o you_o may_v be_v zealous_a but_o alas_o man_n have_v drink_v too_o much_o of_o this_o cup_n of_o giddiness_n they_o think_v they_o need_v not_o be_v so_o zealous_a as_o they_o be_v but_o i_o say_v if_o you_o be_v not_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o you_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n especial_o it_o stand_v man_n now_o upon_o if_o they_o have_v any_o holy_a zeal_n in_o they_o to_o show_v it_o i_o say_v it_o be_v time_n you_o shall_v show_v it_o when_o you_o see_v such_o halt_n between_o two_o opinion_n show_v your_o zeal_n by_o hate_v and_o abhor_v popery_n and_o by_o labour_v to_o draw_v man_n from_o it_o especial_o now_o when_o we_o see_v man_n so_o desirous_a to_o go_v into_o egypt_n again_o which_o be_v to_o be_v lament_v in_o these_o day_n for_o which_o the_o lord_n have_v stretch_v out_o his_o hand_n against_o we_o but_o where_o be_v our_o zeal_n what_o spiritual_a heat_n be_v there_o in_o we_o where_o be_v these_o man_n that_o at_o such_o a_o time_n will_v have_v be_v hot_a and_o zealous_a nay_o where_o be_v the_o generation_n of_o these_o man_n sure_o they_o be_v all_o go_v for_o there_o be_v no_o heat_n and_o zeal_n leave_v it_o be_v true_a we_o abound_v in_o knowledge_n we_o have_v the_o same_o knowledge_n that_o they_o have_v but_o we_o want_v their_o zeal_n and_o spirit_n and_o we_o have_v the_o same_o gift_n but_o we_o want_v their_o spirit_n but_o let_v we_o now_o at_o length_n show_v ourselves_o to_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n to_o have_v the_o spirit_n in_o we_o by_o our_o zeal_n against_o evil_n but_o you_o will_v say_v that_o many_o holy_a man_n that_o have_v 1._o the_o spirit_n yet_o be_v not_o so_o hot_a and_o zealous_a against_o evil_n but_o be_v marvellous_a mild_a and_o patient_a therefore_o a_o man_n may_v have_v the_o spirit_n and_o yet_o not_o be_v zealous_a first_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o holy_a man_n may_v have_v pit_n wherein_o they_o may_v be_v fall_v they_o may_v have_v answ._n dross_n aswell_o as_o gold_n and_o hence_o they_o may_v be_v draw_v by_o a_o strong_a passion_n and_o lust_n not_o just_o to_o weigh_v sin_n aright_o whence_o arise_v remissness_n and_o neglect_v both_o in_o do_v good_a and_o resist_v evil_a but_o this_o in_o a_o regenerate_a man_n i_o call_v but_o a_o passion_n because_o it_o continue_v not_o for_o prayer_n and_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o pure_a word_n will_v recover_v this_o again_o that_o be_v will_v recover_v his_o strength_n and_o make_v he_o zealous_a against_o sin_n but_o if_o you_o see_v a_o man_n whatsoever_o
profession_n he_o make_v of_o christ_n that_o can_v wink_v at_o sin_n and_o not_o be_v move_v at_o it_o and_o the_o word_n nor_o prayer_n do_v not_o kindle_v this_o holy_a fire_n in_o he_o then_o certain_o that_o man_n be_v a_o dead_a man_n there_o be_v no_o spark_n of_o holiness_n in_o he_o therefore_o i_o may_v say_v unto_o every_o holy_a man_n as_o they_o be_v use_v to_o say_v to_o hannibal_n that_o he_o have_v fire_n in_o he_o but_o he_o want_v blow_v so_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o if_o you_o have_v the_o spirit_n you_o have_v heat_n in_o you_o but_o if_o this_o heat_n do_v not_o appear_v at_o all_o time_n or_o at_o sometime_o it_o be_v because_o it_o want_v blow_v for_o when_o they_o have_v a_o just_a occasion_n to_o exercise_v the_o strength_n of_o the_o inward_a man_n for_o god_n glory_n they_o will_v show_v that_o they_o have_v zeal_n in_o they_o and_o be_v hot_a and_o lively_a to_o good_a and_o not_o dead_a in_o sin_n for_o this_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o a_o man_n that_o be_v dead_a and_o a_o man_n that_o be_v in_o a_o swoon_n take_v a_o man_n that_o be_v in_o a_o swoon_n if_o aquavitae_n and_o rub_v of_o his_o joint_n will_v not_o recover_v he_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o he_o be_v dead_a so_o if_o the_o word_n will_v not_o work_v heat_n in_o you_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o you_o be_v more_o than_o in_o a_o swoon_n you_o be_v already_o dead_a in_o the_o inward_a man_n it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o adamant_n it_o will_v not_o be_v heat_v with_o fire_n so_o i_o may_v say_v if_o the_o word_n will_v not_o heat_v you_o when_o you_o be_v rub_v with_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n you_o be_v like_o the_o adamant_n dead_a unto_o grace_n second_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o howsoever_o some_o man_n that_o be_v sanctify_v be_v not_o so_o zealous_a as_o be_v 2._o some_o hypocrite_n which_o be_v true_a yet_o i_o say_v it_o be_v no_o good_a argument_n to_o say_v that_o because_o counterfeit_v drug_n and_o ware_n have_v the_o same_o send_v and_o smell_v that_o the_o good_a ware_n have_v that_o thererefore_o they_o be_v as_o good_a or_o that_o the_o good_a ware_n have_v not_o the_o like_a but_o it_o be_v better_a to_o say_v that_o they_o have_v not_o the_o same_o and_o that_o the_o difference_n be_v in_o this_o that_o the_o affection_n have_v a_o false_a dye_n and_o gloss_n put_v upon_o they_o and_o so_o there_o be_v a_o false_a and_o counterfeit_a zeal_n and_o there_o be_v a_o true_a zeal_n as_o there_o may_v be_v yellow_a piece_n counterfeit_v aswell_o as_o yellow_a piece_n true_a mettle_n so_o there_o may_v be_v counterfeit_a fire_n as_o well_o as_o true_a fire_n this_o than_o i_o say_v man_n may_v be_v sanctify_v and_o yet_o be_v mild_a and_o not_o of_o so_o hot_a and_o fiery_a a_o disposition_n they_o may_v not_o so_o burn_v in_o the_o spirit_n as_o other_o do_v but_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o good_a to_o conclude_v that_o it_o matter_n not_o therefore_o whether_o you_o be_v zealous_a or_o no_o for_o howsoever_o it_o be_v true_a in_o he_o yet_o it_o may_v be_v false_a in_o thou_o and_o know_v also_o that_o this_o meekness_n be_v join_v with_o much_o holy_a zeal_n though_o it_o be_v not_o outward_o express_v for_o as_o certain_o as_o where_o true_a fire_n be_v there_o be_v heat_n so_o where_o there_o be_v the_o spirit_n there_o be_v zeal_n therefore_o examine_v whether_o you_o have_v heat_n in_o you_o if_o you_o have_v not_o you_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n the_o second_o sign_n whereby_o you_o shall_v know_v whether_o sign_n you_o have_v the_o sanctify_a spirit_n or_o no_o be_v this_o if_o you_o find_v that_o you_o be_v not_o only_o able_a to_o do_v more_o than_o you_o can_v natural_o but_o you_o have_v also_o holiness_n join_v with_o it_o this_o sign_n i_o make_v of_o two_o part_n because_o a_o man_n may_v do_v many_o thing_n that_o may_v carry_v a_o show_n above_o holiness_n nature_n and_o yet_o want_v holiness_n but_o if_o they_o be_v above_o nature_n and_o then_o have_v holiness_n join_v with_o they_o than_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o you_o have_v the_o sanctify_a spirit_n first_o i_o say_v it_o will_v make_v you_o to_o do_v more_o than_o you_o can_v do_v by_o nature_n it_o put_v another_o manner_n 1._o of_o strength_n in_o you_o by_o which_o you_o be_v able_a to_o do_v these_o thing_n which_o before_o you_o be_v not_o able_a to_o do_v as_o for_o example_n it_o will_v work_v in_o you_o a_o patience_n above_o a_o natural_a patience_n this_o we_o see_v in_o christ_n himself_o when_o he_o be_v crucify_v he_o open_v not_o his_o mouth_n he_o be_v like_o a_o lamb_n he_o have_v more_o than_o natural_a patience_n this_o be_v true_a in_o paul_n peter_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o saint_n again_o it_o work_v in_o we_o love_v above_o a_o natural_a love_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v that_o christ_n be_v full_a of_o love_n he_o have_v compassion_n on_o the_o 3●_n multitude_n again_o it_o work_v in_o a_o man_n a_o joy_n more_o than_o natural_a joy_n this_o we_o see_v in_o paul_n and_o silas_n when_o they_o be_v in_o prison_n they_o sing_v for_o joy_n and_o the_o 25._o disciple_n in_o the_o act_n rejoice_v that_o they_o be_v think_v worthy_a to_o suffer_v for_o christ._n again_o it_o work_v in_o a_o 41._o man_n boldness_n above_o natural_a boldness_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v act_v 4._o 14._o that_o they_o preach_v 14._o the_o word_n with_o great_a boldness_n that_o be_v with_o a_o boldness_n above_o a_o natural_a boldness_n and_o so_o luther_n he_o be_v endue_v with_o this_o spirit_n of_o boldness_n because_o else_o he_o will_v never_o be_v so_o bold_a in_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o truth_n if_o he_o have_v not_o have_v another_o spirit_n in_o he_o again_o it_o work_v in_o a_o man_n wisdom_n above_o a_o natural_a wisdom_n 1._o sam._n 18._o 12._o it_o be_v say_v of_o david_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v with_o he_o and_o therefore_o 11._o saul_n be_v afraid_a of_o he_o and_o so_o abimelech_n fear_v abraham_n because_o he_o see_v in_o he_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o wisdom_n and_o discretion_n again_o it_o work_v in_o a_o man_n strength_n above_o natural_a strength_n because_o with_o the_o strength_n of_o nature_n they_o have_v another_o add_v to_o it_o again_o it_o will_v make_v you_o see_v above_o a_o natural_a sight_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v they_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o teach_v one_o

to_o obey_v all_o above_o nature_n a_o power_n to_o forsake_v life_n and_o liberty_n riches_n and_o honour_n pleasure_n and_o all_o thing_n if_o they_o come_v in_o competition_n with_o christ_n which_o no_o man_n will_v do_v except_o he_o have_v the_o spirit_n second_o as_o it_o give_v strength_n and_o other_o excellent_a quality_n above_o nature_n so_o it_o add_v unto_o it_o holiness_n 2._o

grant_v that_o sometime_o a_o thief_n may_v be_v in_o the_o high_a way_n but_o it_o be_v for_o a_o booty_n and_o a_o holy_a man_n may_v be_v out_o of_o the_o way_n he_o may_v have_v slip_v aside_o the_o way_n but_o here_o be_v the_o difference_n the_o one_o man_n set_v himself_o of_o purpose_n to_o do_v evil_a but_o the_o other_o be_v force_v unto_o evil_a unwilling_o and_o you_o shall_v know_v the_o difference_n between_o these_o two_o in_o these_o thing_n if_o a_o holy_a man_n have_v go_v beside_o the_o way_n assoon_o as_o the_o passion_n or_o temptation_n be_v once_o past_a he_o will_v return_v again_o unto_o the_o right_a way_n he_o will_v not_o go_v forward_o nor_o stand_v still_o but_o he_o will_v return_v but_o the_o other_o though_o in_o some_o sense_n he_o know_v it_o and_o be_v tell_v that_o he_o be_v off_o the_o rule_n yet_o he_o care_v not_o he_o will_v go_v on_o forward_o therefore_o examine_v what_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n do_v you_o bring_v forth_o and_o what_o way_n do_v you_o delight_v in_o be_v you_o in_o the_o way_n of_o holiness_n do_v you_o delight_n to_o pray_v to_o hear_v to_o receive_v do_v you_o love_v god_n and_o christ_n and_o the_o communion_n of_o saint_n then_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o you_o have_v the_o spirit_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a if_o you_o follow_v drunkenness_n and_o uncleanness_n and_o profane_v of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o idleness_n and_o go_v on_o herein_o as_o in_o your_o way_n you_o have_v never_o the_o spirit_n again_o consider_v what_o be_v your_o walk_n that_o be_v do_v you_o follow_v your_o old_a evil_a haunt_n now_o as_o fast_o as_o ever_o you_o do_v it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o you_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n again_o think_v not_o it_o will_v excuse_v you_o to_o say_v whatsoever_o your_o action_n be_v yet_o you_o have_v good_a heart_n you_o must_v know_v that_o your_o heart_n be_v much_o worse_a than_o your_o action_n as_o i_o say_v before_o for_o if_o you_o have_v the_o spirit_n it_o will_v not_o be_v idle_a in_o you_o but_o as_o it_o make_v the_o heart_n holy_a so_o likewise_o it_o send_v forth_o holy_a speech_n and_o action_n unto_o the_o life_n the_o work_a power_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v

out_o let_v i_o go_v first_o and_o 21._o take_v leave_v of_o my_o father_n and_o then_o i_o will_v go_v with_o thou_o eliah_n may_v have_v well_o reason_v thus_o with_o he_o what_o have_v i_o do_v unto_o thou_o or_o what_o have_v i_o speak_v unto_o thou_o that_o you_o shall_v thus_o reply_v unto_o i_o as_o if_o i_o tie_v thou_o to_o the_o contrary_a say_v i_o any_o such_o a_o word_n unto_o thou_o that_o thou_o must_v not_o go_v but_o there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o necessity_n lay_v upon_o elizeus_fw-la by_o the_o spirit_n to_o go_v with_o he_o and_o therefore_o he_o break_v out_o into_o these_o word_n that_o be_v the_o spirit_n now_o enter_v into_o his_o heart_n that_o he_o be_v not_o now_o his_o own_o man_n he_o must_v go_v whither_o the_o spirit_n will_v have_v he_o and_o do_v what_o the_o spirit_n bid_v he_o and_o so_o we_o see_v in_o act_n 4._o 20._o when_o the_o jew_n come_v to_o peter_n and_o command_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o preach_v christ_n unto_o they_o he_o answer_v that_o he_o can_v choose_v but_o he_o must_v preach_v christ_n and_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o chapter_n you_o shall_v see_v the_o reason_n of_o it_o they_o have_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o they_o speak_v bold_o therefore_o you_o see_v that_o the_o spirit_n be_v not_o idle_a but_o he_o be_v marvellous_a work_n and_o operative_a therefore_o examine_v what_o power_n you_o have_v what_o action_n you_o have_v and_o what_o fruit_n you_o bring_v forth_o but_o you_o may_v say_v that_o sometime_o the_o spirit_n seem_v to_o be_v dead_a in_o the_o heart_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o object_n always_o work_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o property_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v always_o to_o work_v and_o it_o do_v always_o work_v answ._n but_o he_o may_v sometime_o withdraw_v his_o action_n of_o grow_v as_o when_o a_o temptation_n come_v and_o you_o be_v take_v in_o it_o there_o the_o spirit_n seem_v to_o absent_v himself_o by_o with_o draw_v his_o power_n but_o notwithstanding_o he_o work_v still_o for_o at_o the_o instant_n there_o be_v lust_a and_o labour_v in_o you_o against_o it_o and_o afterward_o he_o give_v you_o power_n to_o return_v again_o again_o it_o be_v not_o always_o thus_o with_o you_o but_o sometime_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o use_n the_o next_o use_n stand_v thus_o if_o the_o holy_a ghost_n strengthen_v we_o in_o the_o inward_a man_n then_o let_v i_o exhort_v 2._o you_o above_o all_o thing_n to_o seek_v the_o spirit_n because_o it_o will_v do_v so_o what_o will_v a_o man_n desire_n either_o for_o the_o outward_a or_o inward_a man_n if_o he_o have_v the_o spirit_n he_o shall_v obtain_v it_o will_v a_o man_n be_v enable_v to_o pray_v will_v a_o man_n be_v enable_v to_o bear_v loss_n and_o cross_n will_v a_o man_n master_n particular_a lust_n be_v a_o man_n in_o bondage_n and_o will_v be_v set_v at_o liberty_n from_o sin_n be_v a_o man_n spiritual_o dead_a and_o numb_a be_v a_o man_n spiritual_o affright_v with_o sin_n will_v a_o there_o they_o take_v away_o his_o strength_n and_o it_o weaken_v we_o because_o it_o draw_v the_o affection_n away_o from_o god_n but_o when_o the_o spirit_n come_v than_o it_o cast_v we_o into_o another_o frame_n as_o appear_v if_o we_o do_v but_o compare_v these_o two_o place_n together_o james_n 4._o 5._o with_o act._n 20._o 22._o saint_n james_n say_v that_o the_o spirit_n 22._o lust_v after_o envy_n it_o labour_v to_o carry_v we_o head_n long_o unto_o the_o commit_n of_o sin_n and_o to_o the_o do_v of_o that_o which_o be_v evil_a but_o then_o come_v the_o sanctify_a spirit_n and_o it_o stay_v we_o and_o make_v we_o to_o lust_n after_o good_a that_o be_v it_o bind_v up_o our_o heart_n and_o suffer_v we_o not_o to_o do_v that_o which_o otherways_o we_o will_v do_v therefore_o examine_v whether_o you_o be_v bind_v with_o another_o spirit_n that_o you_o do_v not_o the_o evil_a that_o you_o will_v than_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o you_o have_v the_o holy_a spirit_n therefore_o paul_n in_o the_o place_n before_o name_v say_v that_o he_o be_v bind_v in_o the_o spirit_n for_o jerusalem_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n bind_v up_o my_o spirit_n to_o go_v that_o i_o can_v otherwise_o choose_v therefore_o what_o do_v you_o mean_v to_o break_v my_o heart_n do_v you_o mean_v to_o hinder_v i_o i_o tell_v you_o there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o necessity_n lay_v upon_o i_o by_o the_o spirit_n and_o i_o must_v go_v whatsoever_o do_v befall_v i_o for_o it_o be_v the_o office_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o bind_v up_o our_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o in_o revel_v 1._o 10._o it_o be_v say_v that_o john_n be_v in_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v he_o be_v compass_v 10._o about_o with_o the_o spirit_n he_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n as_o
