regard_n of_o the_o quality_n and_o disposition_n to_o what_o it_o be_v and_o yet_o in_o substance_n remain_v the_o same_o as_o for_o example_n put_v iron_n into_o the_o fire_n the_o iron_n be_v the_o same_o it_o be_v in_o substance_n before_o it_o come_v into_o the_o fire_n but_o now_o it_o have_v another_o quality_n it_o be_v cold_a and_o stiff_a and_o hard_a and_o unplyable_a but_o now_o it_o be_v hot_a and_o soft_a and_o pliable_a and_o this_o change_n be_v throughout_o in_o every_o part_n of_o it_o and_o yet_o it_o be_v iron_n still_o so_o it_o be_v with_o the_o spirit_n when_o it_o come_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o christian_a he_o mingle_v and_o infuse_v spiritual_a life_n into_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v if_o christ_n be_v in_o you_o the_o body_n be_v 10._o dead_a as_o touch_v sin_n but_o the_o spirit_n be_v alive_a the_o body_n be_v dead_a that_o be_v as_o touch_v reign_a sin_n he_o be_v like_o a_o tree_n that_o want_v both_o sap_n and_o root_n or_o as_o a_o man_n that_o be_v dead_a that_o want_v a_o soul_n he_o be_v now_o dead_a whatsoever_o he_o be_v before_o but_o the_o spirit_n be_v alive_a to_o god_n therefore_o examine_v if_o this_o through_o great_a change_n be_v in_o you_o see_v then_o what_o death_n there_o be_v in_o you_o to_o sin_n and_o what_o life_n unto_o holiness_n i_o call_v it_o a_o thorough_a and_o great_a change_n because_o a_o little_a one_o will_v never_o bring_v you_o in_o such_o a_o frame_n as_o to_o be_v fit_a for_o heaven_n and_o again_o the_o apostle_n call_v it_o a_o great_a change_n in_o rom._n 12._o 2._o be_v you_o metamorphose_v that_o be_v thorough_o change_v new_o mould_v again_o 2._o in_o 2_o corin._n 3._o 18._o you_o be_v say_v the_o apostle_n change_v 18._o from_o glory_n to_o glory_n and_o therefore_o consider_v that_o every_o change_n will_v not_o serve_v the_o turn_n but_o it_o must_v be_v a_o great_a change_n as_o the_o change_n of_o christ_n spirit_n for_o your_o own_o spirit_n which_o if_o you_o have_v than_o you_o shall_v come_v out_o of_o every_o affliction_n and_o every_o difficulty_n like_o gold_n out_o of_o the_o furnace_n like_o cloth_n out_o of_o the_o die_n of_o lion_n you_o shall_v be_v lamb_n of_o serpent_n you_o shall_v be_v dove_n therefore_o see_v whether_o this_o change_n be_v in_o you_o or_o no_o if_o this_o change_n be_v in_o you_o than_o when_o your_o old_a guest_n that_o be_v your_o old_a lust_n shall_v come_v and_o find_v that_o his_o old_a companion_n be_v cast_v out_o of_o door_n and_o that_o the_o soul_n be_v sweep_v and_o cleanse_v he_o will_v not_o stay_v but_o seek_v abide_v elsewhere_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a if_o your_o opinion_n of_o sin_n be_v the_o same_o if_o you_o have_v the_o same_o lust_n reign_v in_o you_o if_o you_o use_v the_o same_o evil_a company_n and_o have_v the_o same_o haunt_n that_o ever_o you_o have_v you_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o long_o as_o you_o remain_v thus_o do_v you_o think_v that_o christ_n will_v come_v and_o sup_v and_o dine_v with_o you_o and_o yet_o you_o will_v not_o erect_v a_o build_n for_o he_o in_o your_o heart_n therefore_o if_o you_o will_v have_v christ_n and_o the_o spirit_n then_o labour_v to_o get_v holiness_n the_o four_o sign_n whereby_o you_o may_v know_v whether_o sign_n you_o have_v the_o spirit_n or_o no_o be_v this_o if_o it_o be_v but_o a_o common_a spirit_n you_o shall_v find_v that_o it_o will_v do_v by_o you_o as_o the_o angel_n do_v by_o assume_v body_n they_o take_v they_o up_o for_o a_o time_n and_o do_v many_o thing_n with_o they_o to_o serve_v their_o own_o turn_n but_o they_o do_v not_o put_v life_n in_o they_o such_o be_v the_o common_a spirit_n but_o the_o sanctiry_a spirit_n put_v life_n into_o the_o soul_n wherefore_o examine_v yourselves_o whether_o the_o spirit_n make_v you_o live_a man_n or_o no_o for_o when_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n shall_v join_v with_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n it_o will_v make_v he_o to_o do_v suitable_a thing_n and_o bring_v forth_o suitable_a action_n for_o as_o the_o body_n be_v dead_a without_o the_o soul_n so_o the_o soul_n have_v of_o itself_o no_o spiritual_a life_n to_o good_a without_o the_o spirit_n wherefore_o as_o paul_n speak_v of_o unchaste_a widow_n that_o they_o be_v dead_a while_o they_o live_v 1_o tim._n 5._o vers_fw-la 6._o so_o i_o may_v say_v of_o every_o man_n that_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n they_o be_v dead_a man_n dead_a to_o god_n to_o good_a to_o grace_v to_o holiness_n i_o say_v there_o be_v no_o life_n without_o the_o spirit_n man_n be_v not_o live_v man_n because_o they_o walk_v and_o talk_v and_o the_o like_a but_o they_o be_v live_v man_n that_o live_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o by_o the_o spirit_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a there_o be_v no_o true_a life_n neither_o be_v man_n to_o be_v esteem_v live_v man_n that_o want_v the_o spirit_n now_o for_o the_o examination_n of_o ourselves_o by_o this_o rule_n consider_v first_o we_o have_v but_o a_o assume_v 1._o body_n of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n when_o in_o the_o practice_n of_o life_n we_o assume_v unto_o ourselves_o only_o the_o outward_a form_n of_o godliness_n but_o regard_v not_o the_o power_n cleave_v in_o our_o affection_n to_o that_o which_o be_v evil_a and_o leave_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v true_o good_a i_o do_v not_o say_v when_o you_o hate_v good_a but_o when_o you_o prefer_v evil_a before_o it_o in_o your_o choice_n and_o set_v it_o at_o the_o high_a end_n of_o the_o table_n and_o serve_v it_o first_o and_o attend_v upon_o it_o most_o when_o that_o cross_v holiness_n but_o you_o will_v not_o again_o cross_v it_o for_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n when_o it_o be_v thus_o with_o you_o whatsoever_o you_o think_v of_o yourselves_o you_o have_v not_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n but_o a_o common_a spirit_n without_o life_n second_o you_o have_v but_o a_o assume_v body_n of_o grace_n if_o you_o have_v it_o not_o in_o a_o feel_a manner_n the_o 2._o sanctify_a spirit_n work_v a_o spiritual_a sense_n and_o taste_v in_o the_o soul_n that_o be_v if_o you_o have_v the_o sanctify_a spirit_n then_o holy_a thing_n will_v have_v a_o good_a taste_n they_o will_v be_v sweet_a unto_o you_o it_o will_v purge_v out_o that_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o growth_n of_o the_o inward_a man_n on_o the_o contrary_a the_o common_a spirit_n will_v never_o make_v you_o to_o taste_v grace_n as_o it_o be_v grace_n or_o because_o it_o be_v grace_n that_o be_v grace_n will_v not_o be_v a_o dainty_a thing_n it_o will_v be_v without_o a_o good_a savour_n therefore_o examine_v what_o taste_n of_o good_a you_o have_v whether_o you_o can_v relish_v grace_n or_o no_o if_o not_o you_o have_v not_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n but_o a_o assume_v habit_n of_o grace_n that_o be_v a_o common_a spirit_n without_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n three_o as_o assume_v body_n be_v unconstant_a that_o be_v walk_v only_o for_o a_o time_n but_o they_o walk_v not_o always_o 3._o even_o so_o if_o you_o have_v but_o a_o common_a spirit_n you_o will_v not_o be_v constant_a in_o good_a but_o off_o and_o on_o the_o rule_n a_o man_n that_o be_v live_v in_o christ_n you_o shall_v still_o find_v he_o live_v and_o move_v and_o do_v the_o action_n of_o the_o new_a man_n a_o man_n that_o have_v but_o a_o common_a spirit_n may_v do_v something_n that_o be_v good_a he_o may_v keep_v and_o press_v down_o some_o sin_n awhile_o but_o not_o always_o neither_o then_o because_o it_o be_v sin_n but_o because_o it_o cross_v his_o profit_n or_o pleasure_n or_o some_o other_o thing_n again_o he_o may_v have_v some_o taste_n and_o relish_v of_o spiritual_a thing_n but_o he_o be_v not_o purge_v and_o cleanse_v by_o they_o first_o he_o may_v walk_v as_o a_o live_a man_n walk_v that_o be_v perform_v holy_a duty_n but_o they_o be_v not_o constant_a in_o holy_a duty_n neither_o do_v they_o perform_v they_o in_o obedience_n but_o out_o of_o self_n love_n that_o be_v they_o be_v still_o ebb_v and_o seldom_o flow_v they_o omit_v oft_o than_o they_o perform_v therefore_o let_v i_o exhort_v you_o that_o be_v alive_a and_o have_v be_v dead_a be_v you_o careful_a to_o prize_v your_o life_n and_o you_o that_o have_v be_v alive_a but_o now_o be_v dead_a that_o be_v you_o that_o have_v fall_v from_o your_o holiness_n and_o zeal_n and_o have_v lose_v your_o first_o love_n and_o strength_n labour_v now_o to_o recover_v it_o again_o and_o you_o that_o be_v alive_a and_o yet_o be_v fall_v let_v i_o exhort_v you_o to_o strengthen_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v ready_a to_o die_v if_o there_o be_v any_o here_o

such_o let_v they_o now_o humble_v themselves_o and_o seek_v the_o spirit_n with_o earnestness_n that_o you_o may_v be_v renew_v that_o you_o may_v be_v strengthen_v and_o quicken_v to_o good_a and_o receive_v to_o favour_n again_o but_o if_o you_o will_v not_o but_o continue_v in_o this_o condition_n still_o you_o have_v but_o a_o name_n that_o you_o be_v alive_a but_o indeed_o you_o be_v dead_a rom._n 6._o 8._o it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o that_o die_v in_o christ_n shall_v live_v in_o he_o 8._o if_o you_o once_o live_v the_o life_n of_o grace_n and_o have_v receive_v the_o sanctify_a spirit_n you_o shall_v never_o die_v but_o live_v for_o ever_o in_o christ_n this_o be_v the_o promise_n that_o christ_n make_v unto_o his_o disciple_n and_o in_o they_o unto_o every_o christian_a that_o he_o will_v send_v the_o spirit_n and_o he_o shall_v abide_v with_o they_o forever_o therefore_o examine_v if_o the_o spirit_n do_v not_o remain_v in_o you_o and_o make_v you_o constant_a in_o good_a it_o be_v not_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n the_o five_o sign_n whereby_o you_o shall_v know_v whether_o you_o have_v the_o sanctify_a spirit_n or_o no_o be_v this_o sign_n examine_v whether_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n if_o it_o make_v you_o to_o call_v god_n father_n than_o it_o be_v the_o sanctify_a spirit_n gal._n 4._o 6._o we_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n 6._o of_o

they_o neither_o love_v god_n neither_o do_v god_n love_v they_o the_o apostle_n say_v i_o do_v this_o to_o prove_v or_o know_v the_o naturalnesse_n of_o your_o love_n they_o 8._o that_o have_v the_o

our_o saviour_n say_v john_n 4._o 34._o it_o be_v my_o meat_n and_o drink_v to_o do_v the_o will_n of_o my_o father_n 34._o he_o that_o have_v god_n for_o his_o father_n will_v serve_v he_o willing_o

the_o spirit_n he_o will_v delight_v in_o do_v god_n will_v he_o will_v serve_v god_n though_o he_o shall_v give_v he_o nothing_o and_o this_o that_o god_n be_v our_o father_n it_o will_v raise_v some_o like_a affection_n in_o we_o to_o love_n god_n again_o so_o likewise_o in_o prayer_n to_o have_v god_n to_o be_v our_o father_n it_o raise_v some_o like_a affection_n in_o we_o whereby_o we_o do_v not_o only_o believe_v that_o the_o thing_n we_o pray_v for_o we_o shall_v have_v but_o we_o have_v boldness_n also_o to_o come_v unto_o he_o as_o unto_o a_o father_n which_o no_o man_n can_v do_v till_o he_o have_v this_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n therefore_o examine_v with_o what_o confidence_n and_o boldness_n you_o pray_v with_o what_o reverence_n you_o hear_v with_o what_o affection_n you_o love_v examine_v whether_o you_o have_v the_o spirit_n that_o do_v make_v you_o to_o call_v god_n father_n the_o six_o sign_n whereby_o you_o shall_v know_v whether_o sign_n you_o have_v the_o

not_o only_o be_v against_o one_o or_o some_o more_o particular_a lust_n but_o it_o will_v be_v against_o all_o that_o it_o know_v to_o be_v sin_n i_o say_v not_o that_o there_o be_v only_o a_o strive_v or_o a_o suppress_n but_o a_o lust_a or_o a_o strive_n and_o suppress_v by_o way_n of_o lust_a because_o a_o natural_a man_n that_o have_v not_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n may_v keep_v down_o a_o lust_n for_o some_o by-respect_n but_o it_o be_v not_o by_o lust_a it_o be_v not_o because_o his_o heart_n hate_v it_o or_o suppress_v it_o by_o another_o power_n then_o a_o natural_a power_n for_o they_o retain_v the_o love_n of_o sin_n still_o but_o the_o opposition_n and_o resist_v of_o sin_n in_o the_o godly_a be_v by_o way_n of_o lust_a because_o they_o hate_v the_o sin_n and_o they_o

thy_o word_n be_v truth_n the_o word_n be_v the_o mean_n to_o work_v holiness_n in_o they_o when_o the_o word_n come_v then_o come_v holiness_n but_o when_o profit_n or_o pleasure_n come_v to_o take_v

and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o man_n be_v deceive_v with_o false_a and_o counterfeit_a ware_n because_o they_o want_v the_o spirit_n of_o discern_v but_o when_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n come_v

then_o tell_v i_o how_o come_v you_o by_o it_o when_o and_o by_o what_o mean_n come_v he_o first_o into_o the_o heart_n but_o here_o all_o the_o question_n be_v how_o a_o man_n may_v know_v whether_o the_o spirit_n be_v come_v into_o the_o heart_n in_o 1._o the_o right_a manner_n or_o no._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o this_o you_o must_v know_v that_o answ._n the_o only_a mean_n to_o receive_v the_o spirit_n into_o the_o heart_n the_o right_a conveyance_n of_o the_o spirit_n into_o the_o heart_n be_v by_o the_o word_n pure_o preach_v when_o it_o come_v in_o the_o evidence_n of_o the_o

word_n by_o these_o two_o thing_n by_o the_o antecedent_n and_o by_o the_o consequent_a first_o you_o shall_v know_v it_o by_o that_o which_o go_v before_o 1._o if_o the_o spirit_n have_v be_v wrought_v by_o the_o word_n than_o there_o will_v be_v a_o deep_a humiliation_n wrought_v in_o the_o soul_n for_o sin_n and_o then_o christ_n and_o the_o spirit_n come_v into_o the_o heart_n and_o begin_v to_o cheer_v up_o the_o deject_a soul_n and_o strengthen_v the_o inward_a man_n and_o then_o thereupon_o there_o will_v be_v a_o thorough_a change_n wrought_v in_o the_o whole_a man_n and_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o because_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v first_o to_o pull_v down_o what_o man_n corruption_n have_v build_v and_o then_o to_o lay_v down_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o spiritual_a building_n humility_n and_o then_o after_o to_o rear_v the_o build_n of_o grace_n in_o the_o soul_n as_o for_o example_n if_o you_o will_v know_v whether_o the_o plant_n receive_v virtue_n from_o the_o olive_n or_o no_o than_o you_o must_v know_v that_o first_o they_o must_v be_v cut_v off_o and_o then_o they_o must_v be_v ingraft_v in_o and_o then_o see_v whether_o they_o have_v the_o fatness_n of_o the_o olive_n and_o then_o whether_o they_o bear_v the_o olive_n leave_v so_o a_o man_n that_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o spirit_n by_o the_o word_n he_o shall_v see_v it_o by_o the_o ripeness_n of_o sin_n the_o corrupt_a branch_n the_o bitter_a fruit_n that_o come_v and_o be_v bring_v forth_o by_o he_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a if_o the_o word_n by_o the_o spirit_n have_v cut_v you_o down_o and_o humble_v you_o thorough_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o sin_n and_o then_o ingraft_v you_o into_o christ_n by_o work_v in_o you_o a_o save_n justify_v faith_n and_o if_o it_o have_v then_o make_v you_o fat_a and_o well_o like_v in_o grace_n that_o you_o have_v bring_v forth_o better_a fruit_n than_o you_o can_v before_o then_o certain_o the_o spirit_n come_v into_o the_o heart_n the_o right_a way_n and_o work_n in_o the_o right_a manner_n but_o as_o i_o say_v it_o will_v first_o humble_v you_o by_o the_o word_n as_o in_o john_n 16._o 8._o the_o spirit_n shall_v reproove_v the_o world_n of_o 8._o sin_n of_o righteousness_n and_o of_o judgement_n first_o he_o will_v reproove_v they_o of_o sin_n to_o humble_v they_o second_o 1._o of_o righteousness_n

where_o 2._o it_o come_v for_o where_o the_o spirit_n come_v it_o work_v a_o thorough_a change_n in_o the_o soul_n i_o call_v it_o not_o a_o bare_a change_n but_o a_o thorough_a change_n for_o as_o there_o may_v be_v a_o glister_a show_n of_o something_o that_o be_v like_o gold_n and_o yet_o no_o gold_n so_o there_o may_v be_v a_o cessation_n from_o sin_n and_o a_o change_n from_o sin_n but_o not_o true_o or_o thorough_o and_o so_o not_o at_o all_o for_o what_o will_v it_o avail_v herod_n to_o forsake_v some_o sin_n and_o like_o john_n 20._o well_o in_o some_o thing_n if_o he_o will_v not_o forsake_v all_o and_o like_o john_n in_o the_o reproof_n of_o all_o in_o like_a manner_n what_o if_o you_o change_v your_o opinion_n of_o some_o sin_n what_o if_o you_o esteem_v some_o sin_n to_o be_v sin_n indeed_o if_o you_o have_v not_o the_o like_a opinion_n of_o all_o whatsoever_o you_o think_v of_o yourselves_o as_o yet_o you_o never_o have_v the_o spirit_n therefore_o if_o you_o will_v know_v whether_o you_o have_v the_o sanctify_a spirit_n or_o no_o in_o you_o then_o examine_v whether_o there_o be_v a_o thorough_a change_n wrought_v in_o you_o that_o be_v whether_o you_o do_v not_o only_o esteem_v every_o sin_n to_o be_v sin_n but_o also_o what_o spiritual_a life_n you_o find_v in_o you_o i_o say_v you_o shall_v know_v whether_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v in_o you_o by_o this_o if_o you_o find_v your_o own_o spirit_n dead_a in_o you_o and_o christ_n spirit_n quick_a and_o lively_a in_o you_o and_o this_o you_o shall_v know_v also_o by_o your_o affection_n if_o you_o have_v other_o affection_n both_o to_o god_n and_o christ_n to_o holiness_n &_o to_o the_o saint_n than_o you_o have_v before_o it_o be_v certain_a you_o have_v the_o spirit_n for_o this_o be_v that_o which_o follow_v the_o spirit_n for_o when_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n come_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o christian_a it_o work_v another_o kind_n of_o love_n in_o a_o man_n than_o a_o man_n natural_o have_v and_o again_o it_o make_v a_o man_n to_o live_v another_o kind_n of_o life_n than_o he_o do_v before_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o paul_n in_o galath_n 2._o 20._o thus_o i_o live_v yet_o
