the_o soul_n engraft_v into_o christ_n by_o t._n h._n london_n print_v by_o j._n h._n for_o andrew_n crook_n at_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o bear_n in_o paul_n churchyard_n 1637._o the_o soul_n engraft_v into_o christ_n mal._n 3.1_o behold_v i_o will_v send_v my_o messenger_n and_o he_o shall_v prepare_v the_o way_n before_o i_o and_o the_o lord_n who_o you_o seek_v shall_v sudden_o come_v to_o his_o temple_n even_o the_o messenger_n of_o the_o covenant_n who_o you_o delight_v in_o behold_v he_o shall_v come_v say_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n for_o the_o preface_n two_o thing_n be_v considerable_a 1._o what_o we_o have_v do_v 2._o what_o we_o will_v do_v we_o have_v finish_v the_o scope_n of_o our_o endeavour_n which_o be_v to_o show_v how_o christ_n merit_n be_v apply_v to_o the_o soul_n how_o it_o stand_v possess_v of_o grace_n here_o and_o happiness_n hereafter_o now_o these_o two_o thing_n must_v be_v wrought_v in_o the_o soul_n before_o it_o can_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o save_a grace_n 1._o a_o preparation_n 2._o a_o implantation_n a_o preparation_n there_o must_v be_v for_o a_o sinner_n natural_o as_o he_o have_v no_o grace_n so_o he_o be_v not_o natural_o capable_a to_o receive_v grace_n this_o appear_v in_o 2._o thing_n 1._o on_o god_n part_n he_o break_v the_o curse_a combination_n betwixt_o sin_n and_o the_o soul_n he_o draw_v we_o from_o sin_n to_o himself_o 2._o something_o on_o our_o part_n touch_v the_o disposition_n of_o our_o heart_n and_o that_o in_o 2._o work_n 1._o contrition_n 2._o humiliation_n now_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o these_o two_o to_o be_v in_o the_o soul_n as_o we_o then_o dispute_v for_o these_o be_v the_o two_o main_a hindrance_n of_o our_o faith_n 1._o security_n when_o the_o soul_n be_v blind_v take_v rest_n and_o see_v no_o need_n to_o be_v better_o therefore_o desire_v it_o not_o hence_o natural_a man_n think_v it_o curiosity_n therefore_o the_o lord_n send_v in_o this_o work_n and_o cause_v we_o to_o know_v the_o misery_n of_o sin_n and_o pierce_v our_o soul_n with_o it_o and_o so_o upon_o this_o we_o desire_v a_o change_n for_o else_o it_o see_v it_o must_v be_v condemn_v 2._o when_o the_o sinner_n thus_o see_v his_o misery_n than_o he_o begin_v to_o scramble_v for_o his_o own_o comfort_n that_o he_o may_v relieve_v himself_o he_o will_v reform_v sin_n and_o do_v superficial_a duty_n and_o so_o think_v to_o make_v amends_n this_o be_v carnal_a confidence_n thus_o many_o a_o man_n perish_v rest_v on_o these_o husk_n for_o mean_n be_v not_o mediator_n and_o service_n be_v not_o saviour_n now_o in_o the_o place_n thereof_o god_n discover_v that_o there_o be_v sin_n enough_o in_o the_o best_a service_n the_o soul_n be_v thus_o pluck_v off_o from_o sin_n and_o from_o all_o his_o lust_n and_o pare_v from_o his_o ability_n renounce_v all_o confidence_n and_o be_v nothing_o he_o be_v fit_a for_o christ_n to_o be_v all_o in_o all_o unto_o he_o thus_o far_o we_o have_v go_v all_o this_o while_n the_o soul_n be_v like_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n partly_o wander_v in_o the_o valley_n of_o tear_n partly_o wildr_v in_o the_o desert_n of_o humiliation_n egypt_n be_v a_o type_n of_o a_o man_n natural_a condition_n moses_n a_o type_n of_o the_o law_n josuah_n a_o type_n of_o christ_n the_o wilderness_n a_o type_n of_o these_o two_o now_o the_o soul_n have_v pass_v through_o all_o these_o be_v just_a upon_o the_o coast_n of_o canaan_n the_o soul_n be_v like_o a_o graft_n first_o it_o be_v cut_v off_o then_o pare_v and_o then_o ingraft_v so_o contrition_n cut_v we_o off_o and_o humiliation_n pare_v we_o the_o next_o point_n be_v the_o engraft_v into_o the_o lord_n jesus_n the_o heart_n be_v thus_o prepare_v it_o be_v implant_v into_o the_o true_a vine_n the_o lord_n christ_n touch_v the_o work_n we_o will_v discover_v these_o 2._o thing_n 1._o we_o will_v open_v it_o in_o general_n 2._o we_o will_v discover_v the_o part_n of_o it_o what_o it_o be_v in_o general_a our_o implantation_n into_o christ_n be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n whereby_o the_o humble_a sinner_n stand_v possess_v of_o christ_n and_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o spiritual_a good_a thing_n in_o he_o 3._o thing_n in_o the_o description_n the_o humble_a sinner_n for_o else_o nothing_o to_o do_v with_o christ_n stand_v possess_v of_o christ_n i_o use_v the_o word_n possessor_n because_o it_o be_v rather_o wrought_v upon_o the_o soul_n than_o come_v out_o of_o any_o principle_n in_o the_o soul_n christ_n possess_v he_o and_o hence_o he_o come_v to_o be_v possess_v gal._n 4.9_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v it_o be_v not_o how_o we_o can_v perceive_v he_o but_o how_o he_o will_v know_v we_o philip._n 3.12_o still_o a_o man_n be_v more_o passive_a than_o active_a the_o

thing_n in_o christ_n still_o the_o action_n lie_v on_o christ_n part_n we_o work_v so_o far_o as_o we_o be_v wrought_v on_o these_o two_o thing_n be_v general_a in_o all_o the_o work_n of_o application_n 1._o to_o be_v possess_v of_o christ_n 2._o to_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o spiritual_a good_a in_o he_o as_o in_o vocation_n christ_n draw_v the_o soul_n he_o challenge_v more_o of_o he_o than_o the_o be_v possess_v and_o the_o soul_n follow_v he_o there_o be_v the_o spiritual_a good_a in_o justification_n christ_n lay_v down_o a_o price_n there_o be_v the_o possession_n and_o withal_o the_o soul_n be_v free_v from_o the_o guilt_n and_o punishment_n of_o sin_n there_o be_v the_o spiritual_a good_a in_o adoption_n christ_n not_o only_o call_v a_o sinner_n and_o justify_v he_o but_o adopt_v he_o and_o make_v he_o of_o a_o sinner_n a_o son_n there_o be_v a_o near_a possession_n and_o he_o have_v the_o privilege_n of_o a_o son_n there_o be_v the_o spiritual_a
