redemption_n as_o well_o as_o undertake_v it_o i_o say_v if_o christ_n shall_v have_v leave_v the_o work_n in_o the_o midst_n as_o his_o poor_a disciple_n through_o their_o ignorance_n will_v have_v have_v he_o there_o can_v never_o have_v be_v so_o great_a a_o mercy_n extend_v neither_o to_o they_o not_o to_o any_o other_o as_o the_o come_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o therefore_o our_o lord_n tell_v they_o he_o must_v go_v or_o else_o the_o comforter_n will_v not_o come_v now_o the_o reason_n wherefore_o the_o spirit_n be_v say_v to_o be_v send_v to_o do_v so_o many_o good_a office_n for_o the_o saint_n be_v not_o to_o make_v we_o think_v that_o he_o be_v a_o inferior_a messenger_n but_o to_o let_v we_o know_v that_o all_o that_o joy_n and_o comfort_n peace_n and_o sanctification_n and_o in_o a_o word_n all_o that_o grace_n that_o be_v extend_v through_o the_o divine_a operation_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n it_o all_o come_v unto_o we_o through_o the_o bloodshedding_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o true_o my_o brethren_n if_o you_o do_v but_o consider_v the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n i_o think_v it_o be_v enough_o to_o convince_v you_o or_o any_o know_a man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o he_o that_o do_v it_o must_v needs_o be_v god_n if_o a_o man_n be_v but_o a_o experience_a man_n and_o do_v but_o mind_n the_o great_a blindness_n that_o be_v in_o the_o mind_n and_o the_o hardness_n that_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o do_v but_o consider_v how_o the_o soul_n be_v in_o slave_v under_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n and_o satan_n live_v in_o the_o love_n and_o service_n of_o wickedness_n be_v alienate_v from_o the_o life_n of_o god_n be_v far_o from_o the_o fear_n and_o love_n of_o he_o have_v no_o delight_n in_o his_o commandment_n but_o be_v ungodly_a and_o graceless_a dead_a in_o trespass_n and_o sin_n and_o then_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n consider_v what_o a_o estate_n the_o soul_n must_v be_v bring_v unto_o before_o it_o can_v be_v fit_a for_o eternal_a communion_n with_o god_n if_o a_o person_n do_v but_o thus_o mind_v the_o greatness_n of_o the_o work_n the_o spirit_n be_v to_o do_v in_o take_v away_o the_o filth_n and_o pollution_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o cleanse_v the_o whole_a man_n from_o all_o filthiness_n of_o flesh_n and_o spirit_n and_o the_o renew_v of_o the_o soul_n in_o knowledge_n and_o holiness_n and_o make_v it_o meet_v to_o be_v a_o partaker_n of_o the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o light_n now_o i_o say_v what_o man_n that_o have_v pray_v and_o fast_v and_o watch_v and_o use_v all_o the_o mean_n he_o can_v and_o yet_o find_v in_o what_o a_o frame_n his_o heart_n continue_v how_o far_o from_o that_o purity_n and_o godlikeness_a that_o one_o day_n he_o hope_v to_o enjoy_v but_o now_o which_o way_n can_v a_o man_n expect_v it_o if_o he_o that_o have_v undertake_v the_o work_n be_v not_o infinite_a in_o power_n wisdom_n and_o goodness_n for_o my_o part_n i_o look_v upon_o this_o work_n as_o the_o great_a of_o all_o those_o wonderful_a work_n that_o god_n have_v do_v or_o have_v promise_v to_o do_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o likely_a that_o the_o great_a of_o all_o work_n shall_v be_v lay_v upon_o the_o shoulder_n of_o he_o that_o be_v less_o than_o god_n again_o if_o you_o look_v psalm_n 139._o there_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o prophet_n ascribe_v both_o omni-presence_n and_o the_o search_n of_o the_o heart_n unto_o the_o holy_a spirit_n which_o plain_o speak_v out_o his_o be_v god_n and_o rom._n 9_o 1._o you_o find_v paul_n call_v the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o bear_v witness_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o heart_n sorrow_n for_o his_o brethren_n the_o israelite_n which_o plain_o prove_v that_o he_o be_v god_n see_v two_o text_n for_o this_o 1_o king_n 8.39_o for_o thou_o even_o thou_o only_o know_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o child_n of_o man_n the_o same_o word_n you_o have_v in_o 2_o chron._n 6.30_o in_o both_o which_o place_n you_o see_v it_o be_v the_o peculiar_a prerogative_n of_o the_o only_a true_a god_n to_o know_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o i_o think_v no_o man_n be_v or_o at_o least_o shall_v be_v so_o weak_a as_o to_o think_v the_o apostle_n will_v call_v he_o to_o bear_v witness_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o heart_n that_o do_v not_o understand_v and_o know_v the_o heart_n i_o shall_v name_v you_o but_o one_o text_n more_o for_o this_o and_o that_o be_v luke_n 1.35_o and_o the_o angel_n answer_v and_o say_v unto_o she_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v come_v upon_o thou_o and_o the_o power_n of_o the_o high_a shall_v overshadow_v thou_o therefore_o also_o that_o holy_a thing_n which_o shall_v be_v bear_v of_o thou_o shall_v be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n here_o you_o see_v that_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v call_v the_o high_a and_o i_o think_v a_o title_n beyond_o this_o be_v not_o give_v any_o where_o nor_o can_v be_v give_v to_o the_o only_a true_a god_n but_o beside_o the_o angel_n tell_v mary_n that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v come_v upon_o she_o and_o by_o the_o power_n of_o he_o she_o shall_v conceive_v and_o therefore_o this_o son_n of_o she_o shall_v be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n now_o therefore_o i_o think_v this_o shall_v put_v the_o business_n beyond_o all_o dispute_n for_o if_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n sure_o he_o can_v be_v less_o than_o the_o only_a true_a god_n but_o it_o may_v be_v you_o will_v say_v unto_o i_o how_o shall_v all_o this_o that_o i_o have_v say_v be_v reconcile_v can_v the_o father_n be_v god_n and_o the_o son_n be_v god_n and_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v god_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v but_o one_o only_a true_a god_n belove_a i_o pray_v you_o do_v not_o cast_v away_o a_o opinion_n because_o it_o be_v old_a neither_o do_v i_o persuade_v you_o to_o receive_v it_o therefore_o but_o measure_v all_o opinion_n both_o old_a and_o new_a by_o the_o measure_n line_n of_o truth_n the_o word_n of_o god_n unto_o which_o i_o shall_v leave_v you_o for_o the_o trial_n of_o this_o great_a mystery_n of_o godliness_n and_o shall_v commend_v two_o text_n more_o unto_o you_o for_o the_o reconcile_n of_o what_o have_v be_v say_v the_o one_o be_v in_o 1_o tim._n 3.16_o great_a be_v the_o mystery_n of_o
