our_o faith_n be_v such_o a_o special_a instrument_n for_o we_o you_o must_v teach_v they_o the_o mean_n how_o to_o preserve_v and_o maintain_v it_o because_o all_o their_o life_n hang_v upon_o this_o

shall_v do_v after_o they_o be_v save_v and_o redeem_v and_o that_o be_v to_o fear_n god_n which_o be_v as_o much_o to_o say_v as_o to_o serve_v he_o but_o with_o thou_o be_v mercy_n that_o thou_o may_v be_v fear_v and_o here_o first_o that_o i_o may_v prove_v unto_o you_o that_o this_o phrase_n in_o our_o text_n to_o fear_n god_n signify_v to_o serve_v god_n i_o will_v bring_v two_o place_n of_o holy_a scripture_n for_o confirmation_n the_o first_o be_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o malachy_n vers_fw-la 6._o a_o son_n honour_v his_o father_n and_o a_o servant_n his_o master_n if_o i_o be_v a_o father_n where_o be_v my_o honour_n and_o if_o i_o be_v a_o master_n where_o be_v my_o fear_n that_o be_v as_o much_o to_o say_v as_o where_o be_v my_o service_n for_o we_o know_v that_o the_o duty_n of_o servant_n be_v to_o serve_v their_o master_n and_o that_o their_o fear_n towards_o they_o be_v require_v not_o simple_o for_o itself_o but_o for_o their_o service_n sake_n that_o so_o they_o may_v the_o more_o diligent_o seek_v to_o please_v they_o who_o they_o fear_v to_o offend_v the_o second_o be_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o saint_n luke_n and_o be_v a_o argument_n draw_v from_o the_o end_n of_o our_o redemption_n in_o these_o word_n 1.74_o that_o we_o be_v deliver_v out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o our_o enemy_n may_v serve_v he_o without_o fear_n all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n in_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n before_o he_o in_o which_o word_n we_o be_v to_o learn_v four_o instruction_n the_o first_o be_v that_o when_o we_o be_v redeem_v from_o the_o burden_n of_o our_o misery_n and_o set_v in_o the_o state_n of_o salvation_n then_o consequent_o we_o shall_v give_v ourselves_o whole_o to_o god_n service_n because_o than_o we_o have_v nothing_o else_o to_o do_v the_o second_o doctrine_n teach_v we_o how_o long_o this_o service_n shall_v continue_v that_o be_v not_o for_o a_o day_n or_o two_o but_o for_o all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n for_o see_v christ_n have_v redeem_v we_o not_o for_o a_o day_n or_o two_o but_o for_o ever_o therefore_o it_o be_v just_a that_o we_o shall_v serve_v he_o for_o ever_o and_o see_v christ_n have_v think_v no_o pain_n too_o much_o to_o suffer_v for_o our_o sake_n so_o we_o shall_v think_v no_o labour_n too_o long_o or_o wearisome_a for_o his_o sake_n again_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o ten_o chapter_n of_o matthew_n teach_v we_o that_o he_o only_o shall_v be_v save_v which_o continue_v unto_o the_o end_n 10.22_o the_o three_o instruction_n teach_v we_o the_o sum_n or_o chief_a part_n of_o this_o service_n of_o god_n which_o be_v holiness_n and_o righteousness_n holiness_n towards_o god_n and_o righteousness_n towards_o our_o neighbour_n upon_o which_o two_o hang_v all_o the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n the_o four_o teach_v we_o first_o the_o true_a and_o only_a manner_n of_o perform_v this_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n which_o be_v spiritual_a sincere_a and_o which_o be_v do_v and_o take_v in_o hand_n with_o a_o eye_n unto_o god_n before_o he_o so_o that_o if_o thou_o take_v good_a duty_n in_o hand_n and_o do_v not_o look_v up_o unto_o god_n with_o the_o eye_n of_o thy_o mind_n and_o with_o the_o zealous_a affection_n of_o thy_o heart_n &_o say_v lord_n this_o be_v for_o thou_o and_o for_o thy_o sake_n i_o do_v it_o thy_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n be_v not_o before_o god_n and_o so_o no_o part_n of_o his_o service_n he_o accept_v it_o not_o second_o this_o teach_v we_o to_o distinguish_v between_o the_o true_a holiness_n and_o righteousness_n and_o that_o which_o be_v false_a and_o counterfeit_a which_o be_v no_o part_n of_o his_o service_n if_o thy_o holiness_n &_o righteousness_n be_v of_o thy_o own_o make_n and_o the_o fancy_n of_o thy_o own_o brain_n as_o the_o toy_n of_o popery_n be_v than_o it_o be_v not_o before_o god_n and_o so_o shall_v never_o please_v he_o wherefore_o if_o thou_o will_v seek_v to_o show_v thyself_o thankful_a to_o god_n for_o thy_o great_a deliverance_n thou_o must_v serve_v he_o with_o such_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n as_o be_v before_o he_o and_o that_o be_v such_o as_o his_o word_n only_o command_v now_o let_v no_o man_n think_v that_o this_o place_n be_v contrary_a to_o that_o which_o we_o labour_v to_o make_v plain_a by_o conference_n and_o consent_n which_o be_v our_o text_n the_o one_o affirm_v to_o fear_n god_n the_o other_o to_o serve_v god_n without_o fear_n in_o a_o word_n this_o clause_n without_o fear_n in_o the_o 1._o of_o luke_n be_v not_o contrary_a to_o our_o text_n psalm_n 130._o because_o the_o one_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n which_o be_v his_o service_n and_o the_o other_o of_o the_o fear_n of_o our_o enemy_n and_o so_o the_o allegation_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o word_n service_n and_o not_o in_o the_o word_n fear_n that_o we_o be_v deliver_v out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o our_o enemy_n may_v serve_v he_o that_o be_v fear_v he_o and_o fear_v he_o that_o we_o may_v serve_v he_o now_o have_v lay_v out_o unto_o you_o the_o undoubted_a sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o
day_n of_o thy_o life_n that_o thou_o may_v make_v they_o know_v unto_o thy_o son_n and_o thy_o son_n son_n take_v heed_n say_v he_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v it_o be_v not_o a_o little_a

of_o thy_o life_n that_o so_o thou_o may_v teach_v they_o to_o thy_o son_n and_o thy_o son_n son_n continual_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o have_v his_o holy_a word_n and_o his_o wonder_n which_o he_o
