the_o 37_o year_n of_o his_o age_n he_o have_v sensible_a manifestation_n of_o a_o spirit_n that_o assist_v he_o and_o follow_v he_o till_o his_o death_n if_o in_o company_n he_o chance_v to_o speak_v any_o unwary_a word_n he_o be_v sure_a to_o be_v advertise_v and_o reprove_v for_o it_o in_o a_o dream_n in_o the_o night_n if_o he_o read_v a_o book_n that_o be_v not_o good_a the_o angel_n will_v

for_o the_o illustrate_v of_o this_o point_n so_o that_o you_o see_v this_o make_v good_a that_o the_o angel_n be_v of_o a_o mighty_a use_n to_o we_o especial_o in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n and_o to_o our_o inward_a man_n that_o their_o administration_n be_v not_o change_v but_o the_o way_n of_o it_o only_o obj._n but_o what_o do_v we_o leave_v now_o to_o christ_n and_o the_o spirit_n if_o you_o give_v to_o the_o angel_n the_o work_n of_o teach_v and_o hint_v spiritual_a thing_n ans._n i_o answer_v what_o will_v you_o leave_v to_o the_o angel_n if_o you_o take_v this_o employment_n from_o they_o you_o will_v say_v bodily_a administration_n and_o what_o will_v you_o take_v away_o that_o from_o christ_n who_o care_n reach_v to_o our_o body_n aswell_o as_o to_o our_o spirit_n and_o to_o a_o hair_n of_o our_o head_n therefore_o you_o have_v no_o such_o division_n of_o work_n to_o make_v as_o to_o give_v to_o the_o angel_n a_o care_n of_o the_o body_n to_o preserve_v from_o danger_n and_o to_o christ_n the_o charge_n of_o the_o inner_a man_n if_o it_o be_v no_o prejudice_n to_o christ_n that_o the_o angel_n take_v care_n of_o our_o body_n which_o be_v also_o his_o care_n what_o prejudice_n will_v it_o be_v that_o the_o angel_n shall_v also_o have_v a_o care_n of_o our_o spirit_n unless_o you_o think_v it_o be_v a_o work_n to_o high_a for_o they_o and_o such_o as_o they_o can_v reach_v but_o the_o contrary_a to_o that_o have_v be_v show_v already_o and_o we_o find_v by_o woeful_a experience_n that_o the_o devil_n who_o power_n be_v low_a than_o they_o reach_v our_o spirit_n in_o their_o daily_a temptation_n but_o second_o i_o leave_v to_o christ_n and_o the_o spirit_n the_o all_o in_o all_o that_o be_v the_o inspiration_n the_o efficacy_n and_o the_o blessing_n for_o the_o angel_n be_v but_o minister_a spirit_n not_o fountain_n or_o head_n of_o water_n but_o cistern_n and_o channel_n it_o be_v christ_n and_o the_o spirit_n that_o employ_v the_o angel_n they_o give_v the_o blessing_n and_o make_v effectual_a what_o they_o do_v but_o you_o will_v ask_v what_o need_v this_o administration_n for_o christ_n can_v do_v this_o work_n without_o they_o i_o ask_v aswell_o what_o need_v minister_n preach_v sacrament_n but_o because_o these_o be_v god_n way_n of_o administration_n his_o ordinance_n of_o which_o we_o can_v give_v no_o account_n he_o use_v this_o chain_n and_o sub-ordination_a of_o which_o one_o link_n touch_v another_o to_o be_v god_n good_a pleasure_n to_o communicate_v himself_o to_o we_o by_o mean_n and_o ordinance_n of_o which_o the_o angel_n be_v a_o great_a part_n be_v a_o great_a ordinance_n of_o god_n to_o we_o as_o effectual_a but_o more_o inward_a and_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n use_v the_o angel_n towards_o we_o i_o have_v large_o give_v you_o now_o if_o one_o shall_v be_v so_o curious_a to_o consider_v what_o be_v by_o the_o immediate_a inspiration_n of_o god_n to_o wit_n what_o be_v do_v by_o god_n immediate_o &_o what_o may_v the_o mediation_n of_o angel_n and_o other_o ordinance_n be_v a_o search_n more_o vice_n then_o safe_a as_o it_o will_v be_v also_o to_o distinguish_v what_o the_o devil_n produce_v upon_o we_o by_o the_o mediation_n of_o our_o corruption_n or_o without_o they_o though_o this_o latter_a may_v be_v more_o easy_o perhaps_o guess_v at_o then_o the_o other_o but_o there_o be_v no_o great_a use_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o we_o will_v not_o amuse_v ourselves_o in_o give_v a_o account_n of_o it_o but_o this_o remain_v a_o sure_a truth_n that_o they_o be_v of_o mighty_a use_n to_o we_o and_o that_o the_o thing_n communicate_v to_o our_o inward_a man_n be_v ordinary_o the_o administration_n of_o angel_n then_o fight_v manful_o the_o lord_n battle_n coral_n you_o see_v not_o only_o the_o fountain_n of_o your_o strength_n and_o the_o finisher_n of_o your_o faith_n god_n and_o christ_n but_o all_o the_o intervening_a medium_n the_o saint_n the_o ordinance_n and_o another_o great_a ordinance_n in_o this_o kind_n we_o have_v not_o so_o much_o consider_v the_o good_a angel_n the_o chariot_n and_o horse_n shall_v relieve_v we_o as_o they_o do_v elisha_n and_o consider_v this_o in_o relation_n to_o your_o religious_a walk_n and_o to_o your_o inward_a man_n though_o you_o shall_v want_v other_o ordinance_n yet_o you_o have_v the_o angel_n a_o ordinance_n to_o walk_v up_o and_o down_o with_o you_o in_o other_o thing_n we_o judge_v it_o a_o great_a matter_n to_o see_v the_o mean_n to_o have_v beside_o the_o promise_n the_o staff_n of_o bread_n and_o to_o other_o

christ_n will_v put_v they_o to_o no_o more_o and_o when_o you_o have_v use_v other_o mean_n then_o be_v their_o help_n most_o seasonable_a so_o they_o come_v and_o minister_v to_o christ_n after_o his_o conflict_n after_o he_o have_v resist_v the_o devil_n that_o be_v than_o they_o comfort_v he_o and_o apply_v spiritual_a consolation_n and_o if_o to_o christ_n then_o much_o more_o to_o we_o their_o administration_n will_v be_v but_o in_o and_o with_o the_o use_n of_o mean_n so_o as_o we_o see_v the_o consideration_n of_o those_o bless_a spirit_n be_v of_o a_o practical_a influence_n
