to_o abstain_v from_o fleshly_a lust_n do_v our_o corrupt_a nature_n at_o any_o time_n ask_v any_o thing_n at_o our_o hand_n let_v we_o deny_v it_o and_o say_v it_o nay_o and_o forbear_v such_o

indeed_o if_o we_o be_v our_o own_o then_o may_v we_o just_o take_v our_o liberty_n to_o ourselves_o and_o do_v what_o we_o listen_v but_o the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 6.19_o tell_v we_o plain_o that_o

duty_n to_o abstain_v from_o fleshly_a lust_n etc._n etc._n and_o let_v this_o suffice_v to_o be_v observe_v concern_v this_o point_n now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o insinuation_n and_o first_o of_o the_o first_o dear_o belove_v i_o call_v it_o a_o insinuation_n because_o the_o apostle_n by_o this_o term_n of_o kindness_n do_v artificial_o close_a with_o they_o and_o wind_n both_o himself_o and_o his_o exhortation_n into_o their_o heart_n for_o common_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n when_o it_o be_v counsel_v and_o advise_v by_o other_o be_v wont_a straight_a way_n to_o look_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o counsellor_n to_o search_v out_o with_o what_o affection_n he_o speak_v it_o and_o according_o as_o he_o find_v the_o affection_n of_o his_o counsellor_n so_o will_v he_o esteem_v of_o his_o counsel_n if_o a_o man_n will_n we_o to_o amend_v our_o manner_n thereby_o upbraid_v we_o with_o our_o fault_n or_o betray_v any_o bitterness_n against_o we_o we_o will_v reject_v his_o counsel_n though_o never_o so_o good_a if_o a_o man_n advise_v we_o to_o any_o good_a course_n for_o his_o own_o profit_n or_o for_o some_o advantage_n that_o himself_o may_v get_v by_o it_o we_o refuse_v his_o advice_n though_o never_o so_o profitable_a but_o if_o once_o we_o be_v persuade_v that_o he_o love_v we_o and_o that_o for_o love_n and_o good_a will_v he_o advise_v we_o to_o any_o course_n present_o we_o harken_v to_o he_o and_o embrace_v his_o counsel_n and_o be_v willing_a and_o ready_a to_o put_v it_o in_o practice_n wherefore_o our_o apostle_n deal_v very_o skilful_o here_o with_o these_o christian_n first_o protest_v his_o dear_a and_o tender_a love_n towards_o they_o that_o he_o do_v not_o counsel_v they_o to_o this_o for_o any_o shame_n he_o will_v bring_v upon_o they_o or_o for_o any_o vantage_n that_o he_o shall_v procure_v to_o himself_o but_o mere_o for_o his_o hearty_a love_n and_o affection_n that_o he_o bear_v unto_o they_o therefore_o they_o be_v in_o no_o case_n either_o to_o contemn_v it_o or_o suspect_v it_o but_o rather_o to_o embrace_v it_o with_o all_o willingness_n and_o here_o be_v a_o excellent_a rule_n for_o we_o to_o frame_v our_o counsel_n by_o that_o whensoever_o any_o of_o we_o reprove_v his_o brother_n for_o any_o sin_n as_o for_o drunkenness_n swear_v uncleanness_n or_o any_o such_o profane_a carriage_n and_o counsel_v he_o to_o amend_v it_o we_o must_v take_v heed_n that_o it_o come_v not_o from_o any_o gall_n or_o bitterness_n in_o our_o heart_n for_o than_o it_o mar_v our_o exhortation_n and_o harden_v he_o more_o in_o his_o sin_n but_o it_o must_v come_v from_o love_n within_o we_o and_o that_o from_o a_o tender_a and_o dear_a love_n towards_o he_o if_o ever_o we_o desire_v that_o our_o counsel_n shall_v take_v

a_o duty_n to_o be_v beseech_v and_o crouch_v unto_o by_o other_o but_o himself_o will_v beseech_v none_o it_o may_v be_v he_o succeed_v he_o in_o place_n though_o that_o may_v be_v question_v too_o but_o in_o meekness_n of_o spirit_n and_o the_o performance_n of_o his_o ministerial_a function_n he_o do_v as_o far_o degenerate_a from_o peter_n as_o ever_o that_o idolatrous_a king_n manassah_n do_v degenerate_a from_o the_o step_n of_o his_o good_a father_n hezekiah_n and_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o insinuation_n now_o to_o the_o part_n of_o the_o exhortation_n and_o first_o of_o the_o former_a part_n contain_v in_o the_o 11._o verse_n the_o mortify_n and_o subdue_a of_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n first_o of_o the_o matter_n itself_o and_o second_o of_o the_o motive_n whereby_o the_o apostle_n enforce_v this_o exhortation_n upon_o they_o first_o of_o the_o matter_n to_o abstain_v from_o fleshly_a lust_n by_o lust_n we_o be_v here_o to_o understand_v the_o disposition_n or_o

choose_v a_o most_o significant_a and_o compendious_a word_n to_o express_v his_o meaning_n he_o bid_v they_o to_o abstain_v from_o lust_n wherein_o we_o may_v observe_v first_o that_o this_o be_v a_o general_a dehortation_n from_o all_o kind_n of_o sin_n for_o lust_n be_v the_o general_a name_n for_o they_o all_o not_o only_o against_o adultery_n and_o wantonness_n which_o be_v the_o most_o natural_a meaning_n of_o lust_n but_o against_o pride_n and_o envy_n and_o oath_n and_o blasphemy_n and_o every_o other_o sin_n for_o he_o will_v not_o have_v the_o child_n of_o god_n be_v free_a from_o one_o sin_n and_o defile_v themselves_o with_o another_o free_a from_o adultery_n but_o defile_v with_o drunkenness_n or_o free_a from_o drunkenness_n but_o defile_v with_o envy_n but_o he_o will_v have_v they_o to_o be_v entire_o holy_a and_o as_o in_o the_o first_o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n he_o will_v they_o to_o lay_v aside_o all_o dissimulation_n all_o maliciousness_n all_o evil_a speak_n so_o here_o he_o will_n they_o to_o abstain_v from_o all_o sin_n what_o be_v it_o unto_o thy_o health_n if_o thou_o be_v free_a from_o one_o disease_n and_o thy_o body_n infect_v with_o another_o thou_o be_v still_o but_o a_o disease_a man_n and_o what_o be_v it_o to_o the_o comeliness_n of_o thy_o body_n to_o have_v a_o fair_a face_n but_o to_o want_v the_o proportion_n of_o thy_o other_o limb_n thou_o be_v still_o but_o a_o deform_a man_n and_o what_o be_v it_o to_o the_o grace_v of_o thy_o soul_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n to_o be_v clear_a from_o one_o sin_n so_o long_o as_o another_o sin_n reign_v within_o thou_o but_o if_o thou_o can_v sweep_v away_o these_o lust_n which_o the_o apostle_n here_o speak_v of_o than_o thou_o be_v cleanse_v of_o all_o thy_o disease_n to_o be_v a_o sound_n christian_n and_o ride_v of_o all_o thy_o deformity_n to_o be_v gracious_a and_o acceptable_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o we_o may_v take_v this_o exhortation_n to_o be_v more_o particular_a as_o if_o the_o apostle_n shall_v counsel_v these_o christian_n to_o abstain_v especial_o from_o such_o lust_n as_o the_o gentile_n among_o who_o they_o live_v be_v addict_v unto_o that_o if_o they_o be_v give_v to_o riot_n these_o shall_v especial_o endeavour_n themselves_o to_o sobriety_n if_o they_o be_v give_v to_o wantonness_n these_o shall_v especial_o

shall_v see_v the_o good_a example_n of_o these_o christian_n they_o may_v learn_v by_o they_o to_o be_v draw_v from_o their_o sin_n and_o so_o glorify_v god_n in_o the_o day_n of_o their_o

and_o there_o to_o make_v just_a trial_n what_o special_a sin_n they_o do_v feel_v to_o rage_v most_o within_o they_o and_o thereof_o they_o shall_v especial_o labour_v to_o purge_v themselves_o for_o
