record_n against_o itself_o repent_v for_o break_v this_o commandment_n and_o that_o commandment_n and_o never_o repent_v for_o break_v this_o commandment_n rejoice_v evermore_o it_o be_v not_o a_o indifferent_a thing_n to_o rejoice_v or_o not_o to_o rejoice_v but_o we_o be_v command_v to_o rejoice_v to_o show_v that_o we_o break_v a_o commandment_n if_o we_o rejoice_v not_o oh_o what_o a_o comfort_n be_v this_o when_o the_o comforter_n himself_o shall_v command_v we_o to_o rejoice_v god_n be_v wont_a to_o say_v repent_v and_o not_o rejoice_v because_o man_n rejoice_v too_o much_o but_o here_o god_n command_v to_o rejoice_v as_o though_o some_o man_n do_v not_o rejoice_v enough_o therefore_o you_o must_v understand_v to_o who_o he_o speak_v 5._o in_o 149._o psal_n 5._o it_o be_v say_v let_v the_o saint_n be_v glad_a not_o let_v the_o wicked_a be_v glad_a and_o in_o esaiah_n 40._o 1._o 1._o he_o say_v comfort_v my_o people_n not_o comfort_v my_o enemy_n show_v to_o who_o this_o commandment_n of_o paul_n be_v send_v rejoice_v evermore_o it_o be_v not_o in_o this_o as_o christ_n say_v that_o which_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o i_o say_v unto_o all_o but_o that_o which_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o i_o say_v not_o unto_o all_o 9_o give_v wine_n say_v solomon_n unto_o he_o that_o be_v sorrowful_a that_o he_o may_v forget_v his_o grief_n so_o give_v comfort_n unto_o he_o which_o be_v penitent_a that_o he_o may_v forget_v his_o fear_n solomon_n say_v five_o time_n that_o this_o be_v the_o portion_n of_o man_n under_o the_o sun_n 24._o to_o receive_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n with_o thankfulness_n and_o to_o rejoice_v in_o they_o 11._o he_o which_o will_v have_v we_o holy_a as_o he_o be_v holy_a 16._o will_v have_v we_o joyful_a as_o he_o be_v joyful_a he_o which_o will_v have_v we_o do_v his_o will_n upon_o earth_n as_o the_o angel_n do_v it_o in_o heaven_n will_v have_v we_o rejoice_v upon_o earth_n as_o the_o angel_n rejoice_v in_o heaven_n he_o which_o have_v ordain_v we_o to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o saint_n will_v have_v we_o rejoice_v that_o we_o have_v such_o a_o kingdom_n to_o receive_v therefore_o he_o say_v to_o his_o disciple_n rejoice_v that_o your_o name_n be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n as_o b●az_n say_v unto_o ruth●_n go_v not_o out_o of_o this_o field_n to_o glean_v in_o any_o other_o field_n 20._o for_o here_o thou_o shall_v have_v enough_o 8._o so_o he_o will_v not_o have_v we_o go_v from_o this_o comfort_n unto_o any_o other_o comfort_n for_o here_o we_o shall_v have_v enough_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v call_v the_o comforter_n 16._o because_o we_o shall_v have_v comfort_n in_o it_o i_o will_v send_v you_o the_o comforter_n say_v christ_n to_o show_v that_o they_o which_o have_v the_o spirit_n have_v comfort_n too_o and_o they_o which_o resist_v comfort_n resist_v the_o spirit_n therefore_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v call_v the_o consolation_n of_o israel_n 25._o to_o show_v that_o he_o bring_v consolation_n with_o he_o and_o that_o joy_n be_v where_o christ_n be_v as_o light_n be_v where_o the_o sun_n be_v therefore_o the_o chief_a joy_n be_v call_v the_o joy_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o show_v that_o they_o have_v the_o chief_a joy_n 17_o which_o have_v the_o holy_a ghost_n therefore_o the_o great_a peace_n be_v call_v the_o peace_n of_o conscience_n 7._o to_o show_v that_o they_o have_v the_o great_a peace_n which_o have_v a_o good_a conscience_n therefore_o the_o faithful_a be_v say_v to_o be_v anoint_v with_o the_o oil_n of_o joy_n 3._o as_o though_o joy_n be_v in_o their_o countenance_n therefore_o they_o be_v say_v to_o be_v clothe_v with_o the_o garment_n of_o gladness_n 17._o as_o though_o gladness_n do_v compass_v they_o like_o a_o garment_n 3._o therefore_o paul_n in_o all_o his_o epistel_n do_v join_v grace_n &_o peace_n together_o 2._o &_o show_v that_o the_o peace_n of_o god_n do_v follow_v they_o which_o have_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n 3._o it_o be_v not_o in_o vain_a that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n when_o he_o name_v barnabas_n 2._o interpret_v his_o name_n too_o because_o it_o signify_v the_o son_n of_o consolation_n 2._o as_o though_o he_o delight_v in_o such_o man_n as_o be_v the_o son_n of_o consolation_n 1_o comfort_n one_o another_o say_v paul_n 4._o how_o shall_v we_o comfort_v one_o another_o without_o comfort_n 3._o therefore_o paul_n say_v 39_o god_n comfort_v we_o 18._o that_o we_o may_v be_v able_a to_o comfort_v other_o by_o the_o comfort_n whereby_o we_o ourselves_o be_v comfort_v of_o god_n 14._o show_v that_o we_o can_v comfort_v other_o unless_o we_o be_v comfortable_a ourselves_o and_o therefore_o that_o we_o may_v perform_v this_o duty_n we_o be_v bind_v to_o nourish_v comfort_n in_o ourselves_o paul_n say_v i_o be_o full_a of_o comfort_n who_o then_o can_v say_v 4._o i_o be_o full_a of_o sorrow_n but_o he_o must_v contrary_a paul_n as_o the_o body_n may_v not_o offend_v the_o soul_n so_o the_o soul_n may_v not_o injure_v the_o body_n because_o it_o be_v the_o bodis_fw-la keeper_n but_o a_o pensive_a man_n do_v injure_v the_o body_n and_o the_o soul_n too_o 14._o for_o solomon_n say_v a_o sound_a spirit_n will_v bear_v his_o infirmity_n but_o a_o wound_a spirit_n who_o can_v bear_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v the_o heart_n must_v be_v keep_v courageous_a and_o strong_a &_o lively_a like_o a_o instrument_n which_o be_v tune_v to_o tune_v all_o the_o rest_n or_o else_o every_o grief_n will_v make_v thou_o impatient_a in_o deut._n 30._o 9_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n rejoice_v to_o do_v we_o good_a &_o therefore_o in_o the_o 28_o of_o deut._n the_o jew_n be_v reproove_v because_o they_o rejoice_v not_o in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n as_o he_o love_v a_o cheerful_a giver_n so_o he_o love_v a_o cheerful_a seruer_n and_o a_o cheerful_a preacher_n and_o a_o cheerful_a hearer_n and_o a_o cheerful_a worshipper_n and_o therefore_o david_n say_v let_v we_o sing_v hearty_o unto_o the_o lord_n show_v as_o it_o be_v the_o tune_n which_o delight_v god_n ear_n if_o you_o will_v know_v with_o what_o tune_n you_o shall_v sing_v unto_o god_n 1._o david_n say_v hearty_o that_o be_v you_o must_v give_v hearty_o you_o must_v love_v hearty_o you_o must_v obey_v hearty_o you_o must_v pray_v hearty_o and_o when_o you_o do_v all_o thing_n hearty_o than_o you_o shall_v do_v all_o thing_n cheerful_o therefore_o now_o i_o may_v say_v unto_o they_o which_o resist_v comfort_n and_o nourish_v grief_n as_o the_o prophet_n say_v 12._o who_o have_v require_v these_o thing_n of_o you_o god_n do_v require_v no_o sorrow_n but_o the_o sorrow_n for_o sin_n no_o fear_n but_o the_o fear_n to_o sin_n no_o care_n but_o the_o care_n to_o please_v he_o nay_o he_o have_v forbid_v all_o other_o care_n and_o therefore_o peter_n say_v 7._o cast_v your_o care_n upon_o he_o as_o though_o god_n do_v not_o allow_v we_o to_o care_n he_o send_v his_o apostle_n with_o this_o charge_n cast_v your_o care_n upon_o he_o as_o we_o do_v cast_v our_o sin_n upon_o christ_n so_o we_o must_v cast_v our_o care_n upon_o he_o for_o god_n have_v command_v we_o to_o labour_v but_o not_o to_o care_n because_o care_n hinder_v our_o labour_n like_o the_o samaritan_n which_o seem_v to_o help_v the_o jew_n to_o build_v the_o temple_n &_o hinder_v they_o to_o build_v the_o temple_n 2._o so_o care_n and_o sorrow_n &_o think_v seem_v to_o help_v we_o in_o our_o labour_n &_o our_o study_n &_o our_o prayer_n and_o our_o strife_n but_o indeed_o they_o hinder_v we_o for_o they_o take_v all_o the_o time_n from_o that_o which_o we_o shall_v do_v &_o disable_v we_o to_o do_v it_o and_o therefore_o when_o care_n come_v to_o we_o we_o shall_v answer_v it_o as_o christ_n say_v unto_o satan_n avoid_v satan_n avoid_v care_n for_o every_o care_n which_o be_v not_o of_o god_n 4._o be_v of_o satan_n and_o we_o may_v not_o bear_v that_o which_o god_n command_v we_o to_o cast_v upon_o he_o shall_v i_o hang_v my_o joy_n and_o my_o faith_n and_o my_o hope_n because_o i_o have_v sin_v as_o judas_n hang_v himself_o the_o scripture_n say_v not_o let_v he_o which_o have_v steal_v despair_n of_o mercy_n 41._o but_o let_v he_o which_o have_v steal_v steal_v no_o more_o and_o it_o be_v enough_o as_o we_o be_v teach_v to_o discern_v of_o spirit_n &_o of_o doctrine_n 10_o so_o we_o must_v discern_v of_o care_n and_o sorrow_n for_o when_o paul_n say_v there_o be_v a_o repentance_n not_o to_o be_v repent_v of_o he_o show_v that_o there_o be_v a_o repentance_n to_o be_v repent_v of_o that_o be_v a_o repentance_n which_o be_v a_o sin_n like_o the_o tear_n of_o esau_n which_o weep_v not_o for_o his_o sin_n but_o for_o
kingdom_n and_o glory_n and_o therefore_o seek_v it_o and_o further_o it_o as_o earnest_o and_o diligent_o as_o he_o will_v his_o own_o and_o rule_v and_o judge_v and_o speak_v and_o punish_v and_o counsel_n as_o he_o will_v for_o himself_o 21_o even_o as_o david_n count_v god_n foe_n his_o foe_n and_o god_n friend_n his_o friend_n and_o moses_n persecute_v they_o that_o be_v idolater_n against_o god_n 27._o as_o he_o do_v they_o which_o be_v traitor_n to_o himself_o 16._o if_o this_o be_v observe_v we_o shall_v see_v such_o a_o change_n that_o diverse_a which_o take_v shall_v give_v &_o they_o which_o give_v shall_v take_v they_o which_o labour_n shall_v rest_v &_o they_o which_o rest_n shall_v labour_v how_o can_v they_o pray_v to_o god_n which_o know_v that_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v not_o obey_v that_o his_o will_n be_v not_o regard_v but_o the_o poor_a unpitied_a because_o of_o the_o remissness_n in_o not_o bridle_v the_o insolent_a it_o may_v seem_v that_o in_o eliah_n his_o answer_n to_o achab_n it_o be_v prophesy_v who_o shall_v trouble_v israel_n to_o the_o world_n end_n 18._o for_o speak_v to_o the_o wicked_a magistrate_n he_o say_v it_o be_v thou_o which_o trouble_v it_o so_o the_o ungodly_a ruler_n and_o graceless_a striver_n against_o lawful_a rule_n in_o their_o own_o heart_n call_v themselves_o god_n not_o be_v so_o call_v of_o god_n be_v cause_n of_o all_o disorder_n in_o every_o common_a weal_n four_o they_o be_v call_v god_n to_o encourage_v they_o in_o their_o office_n and_o to_o teach_v they_o that_o they_o need_v not_o dread_v the_o person_n of_o man_n but_o god_n do_v that_o which_o be_v just_a and_o good_a without_o the_o jealousy_n of_o man_n so_o they_o upon_o the_o bench_n and_o in_o all_o cause_n of_o justice_n shall_v forget_v themselves_o to_o be_v man_n which_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o arm_n between_o favour_n and_o fear_n and_o think_v themselves_o god_n which_o fear_v nothing_o this_o boldness_n be_v so_o necessary_a in_o they_o which_o shall_v judge_v all_o a_o like_a that_o in_o deut._n 3._o 28._o moses_n encourage_v joshua_n in_o jos_n 1._o 18._o the_o people_n encourage_v he_o in_o ver_fw-la 9_o god_n do_v encourage_v he_o say_v that_o he_o will_v be_v with_o he_o but_o here_o he_o be_v with_o he_o for_o hear_v god_n call_v they_o god_n show_n that_o god_n be_v there_o nay_o that_o they_o be_v he_o which_o shall_v strike_v a_o wonderful_a mind_n into_o they_o as_o a_o princely_a spirit_n come_v upon_o saul_n so_o soon_o as_o he_o he_o be_v king_n so_o hear_v that_o they_o be_v god_n it_o shall_v change_v they_o &_o make_v they_o excel_v the_o order_n of_o man_n until_o they_o resemble_v god_n 9_o after_o who_o they_o be_v name_v as_o solomon_n study_v and_o pray_v till_o he_o be_v wise_a than_o all_o that_o he_o govern_v 30._o then_o they_o need_v not_o blush_v to_o read_v this_o testimony_n i_o have_v say_v you_o be_v god_n or_o else_o it_o will_v seem_v a_o check_n unto_o they_o like_o the_o mock_n which_o god_n give_v to_o adam_n when_o he_o say_v that_o he_o be_v become_v like_o himself_o 22._o as_o many_o sit_v in_o god_n place_n and_o yet_o never_o know_v that_o the_o scripture_n call_v they_o god_n nor_o why_o they_o have_v this_o name_n no_o more_o than_o nabal_n so_o many_o play_n nabal_n in_o their_o office_n and_o be_v ready_a to_o ask_v 25_o who_o be_v david_n who_o be_v christ_n when_o his_o cause_n come_v before_o they_o then_o speak_v or_o do_v any_o thing_n for_o he_o but_o the_o woman_n go_v before_o they_o again_o like_o abigail_n as_o though_o ggd_n will_v shame_v they_o with_o the_o weak_a vessel_n i_o can_v compare_v they_o fit_a than_o with_o king_n agrippa_n who_o think_v it_o better_a to_o be_v a_o christian_a almost_o than_o altogether_o this_o be_v the_o religion_n of_o these_o time_n they_o fear_v nothing_o more_o than_o to_o be_v count_v too_o precise_a but_o god_n do_v call_v they_o more_o than_o precise_a for_o he_o call_v they_o god_n of_o all_o man_n than_o they_o shall_v not_o forget_v his_o name_n prince_n and_o ruler_n have_v many_o name_n of_o honour_n but_o this_o be_v the_o honourable_a name_n in_o their_o title_n that_o they_o be_v call_v god_n other_o name_n have_v be_v give_v they_o of_o man_n for_o reverence_n or_o flattery_n but_o no_o man_n can_v give_v they_o this_o name_n but_o god_n himself_o therefore_o their_o name_n be_v a_o glass_n wherein_o they_o may_v see_v their_o duty_n how_o god_n do_v honour_v they_o and_o how_o they_o shall_v honour_v he_o what_o be_o i_o more_o than_o he_o that_o god_n shall_v set_v i_o in_o his_o own_o chair_n and_o give_v i_o his_o own_o name_n more_o than_o other_o he_o have_v not_o do_v so_o to_o all_o but_o if_o they_o which_o be_v

god_n it_o seem_v that_o if_o god_n can_v have_v call_v they_o by_o a_o high_a name_n than_o his_o own_o 23_o he_o will_v have_v call_v they_o by_o some_o other_o name_n but_o this_o word_n be_v enough_o to_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o all_o that_o they_o shall_v do_v think_v that_o you_o be_v god_n and_o it_o will_v make_v you_o ashamed_a to_o obey_v the_o devil_n for_o than_o you_o be_v like_o god_n no_o more_o but_o like_o sinful_a man_n and_o the_o poor_a vassal_n which_o serve_v god_n in_o a_o cottage_n be_v like_a god_n than_o you_o be_v they_o god_n which_o oppress_v god_n child_n nay_o do_v not_o he_o lie_v which_o call_v they_o worshipful_a or_o noble_a if_o such_o deserve_v not_o their_o title_n how_o can_v antichrist_n of_o rome_n think_v of_o his_o usurp_a name_n

and_o call_v they_o god_n 30._o to_o teach_v they_o their_o duty_n to_o god_n all_o shall_v be_v godly_a but_o they_o shall_v be_v like_o god_n that_o be_v as_o i_o may_v say_v more_o than_o godly_a or_o the_o next_o to_o god_n in_o godliness_n if_o any_o come_v between_o they_o they_o lose_v of_o their_o honour_n and_o will_v think_v themselves_o put_v down_o like_o a_o guest_n which_o be_v

so_o when_o we_o go_v to_o pray_v we_o must_v leave_v our_o passion_n and_o affection_n and_o lust_n behind_o lest_o they_o trouble_v we_o like_o the_o fowl_n which_o hinder_v abraham_n in_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o when_o our_o prayer_n do_v please_v god_n as_o jacobs_n meat_n do_v please_v his_o father_n than_o god_n will_v hear_v our_o prayer_n and_o bless_v we_o as_o his_o father_n bless_v he_o now_o to_o inform_v we_o what_o prayer_n delight_v god_n the_o apostle_n paul_n in_o his_o first_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n and_o the_o four_o verse_n shewe_a that_o he_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n teach_v we_o to_o pray_v continual_o this_o he_o expound_v in_o the_o second_o epistle_n to_o the_o thessalonian_o the_o three_o chapter_n and_o the_o thirteen_o verse_n when_o he_o say_v be_v not_o weary_a of_o well_o do_v therefore_o if_o you_o do_v well_o when_o you_o pray_v you_o must_v not_o be_v weary_a of_o pray_v the_o like_a say_n be_v in_o the_o twelve_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n where_o it_o be_v say_v continue_v in_o prayer_n the_o like_a say_n be_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n where_o it_o be_v say_v pray_v at_o all_o time_n the_o like_a say_n also_o be_v in_o the_o eighteen_o chapter_n of_o saint_n luke_n where_o it_o be_v say_v pray_v always_o and_o be_v not_o faint_a we_o be_v not_o command_v to_o preach_v continual_o nor_o yet_o to_o hear_v continual_o nor_o to_o fast_o continual_o nor_o to_o watch_v continual_o nor_o to_o go_v continual_o but_o we_o be_v command_v to_o pray_v continual_o as_o though_o prayer_n be_v more_o needful_a than_o all_o the_o rest_n we_o want_v continual_o and_o we_o be_v tempt_v continual_o and_o we_o sin_n continual_o and_o therefore_o we_o have_v need_v to_o pray_v to_o god_n continual_o that_o god_n will_v supply_v our_o want_n and_o forgive_v our_o sin_n and_o prevent_v our_o temptation_n to_o show_v that_o we_o shall_v pray_v daily_a christ_n teach_v we_o in_o the_o eleven_o chapter_n of_o s._n luke_n to_o say_v give_v we_o this_o day_n our_o daily_a bread_n this_o day_n we_o ask_v no_o more_o but_o our_o daily_a bread_n and_o if_o we_o live_v till_o the_o morrow_n than_o we_o ask_v no_o more_o but_o our_o daily_a bread_n so_o the_o word_n daily_o do_v teach_v we_o to_o pray_v daily_o for_o there_o be_v great_a reason_n that_o they_o which_o have_v continual_o need_v of_o god_n shall_v pray_v continual_o unto_o he_o but_o as_o some_o answer_v christ_n as_o it_o appear_v in_o saint_n johns_n gospel_n who_o be_v able_a to_o do_v this_o so_o you_o will_v say_v unto_o i_o who_o be_v able_a to_o pray_v continual_o saint_n paul_n in_o his_o twelve_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n teach_v we_o a_o reasonable_a service_n of_o god_n here_o he_o seem_v to_o enjoin_v we_o a_o unreasonable_a service_n of_o god_n for_o who_o do_v ever_o pray_v continual_o or_o if_o we_o shall_v pray_v continual_o when_o shall_v we_o hear_v or_o preach_v or_o when_o shall_v we_o study_v or_o when_o shall_v we_o work_v so_o one_o service_n seem_v to_o hinder_v all_o service_n but_o indeed_o it_o do_v further_o all_o service_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v command_v to_o pray_v continual_o because_o we_o can_v do_v nothing_o without_o prayer_n but_o if_o you_o imagine_v that_o this_o commandment_n be_v break_v if_o your_o lip_n be_v not_o always_o go_v which_o be_v the_o heresy_n of_o the_o messaliant_a or_o if_o you_o dwell_v not_o always_o in_o the_o church_n like_o the_o golden_a candlestick_n than_o you_o be_v out_o of_o paul_n mind_n for_o paul_n do_v not_o pray_v continual_o with_o his_o lip_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o mean_v a_o lip-prayer_n neither_o do_v paul_n live_v day_n and_o night_n in_o the_o temple_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o mean_v a_o church-prayer_n and_o further_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o jew_n be_v not_o appoint_v to_o pray_v at_o all_o time_n for_o they_o have_v set_v time_n of_o prayer_n and_o therefore_o we_o read_v how_o peter_n and_o john_n go_v up_o to_o the_o temple_n at_o the_o time_n of_o prayer_n therefore_o to_o pray_v continual_o be_v to_o lift_v up_o our_o heart_n continual_o unto_o god_n 4._o &_o to_o pray_v in_o our_o thought_n as_o moses_n do_v though_o we_o open_v not_o our_o lip_n and_o so_o we_o may_v pray_v continual_o as_o when_o a_o good_a man_n be_v to_o answer_v before_o the_o
