good_a deed_n that_o he_o have_v do_v either_o for_o god_n house_n or_o for_o god_n people_n or_o for_o god_n glory_n herein_o he_o have_v comfort_n 14.14_o matt._n 6.20_o luk._n 14.14_o that_o he_o have_v lay_v up_o treasure_n in_o heaven_n which_o he_o shall_v find_v with_o god_n at_o the_o last_o day_n and_o shall_v be_v abundant_o recompense_v at_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o just_a again_o hereby_o good_a man_n may_v be_v encourage_v to_o well-doing_n because_o they_o know_v that_o their_o labour_n will_v not_o be_v in_o vain_a in_o the_o lord_n this_o use_n the_o apostle_n make_v of_o this_o point_n he_o that_o sow_v to_o his_o flesh_n shall_v of_o the_o flesh_n reap_v corruption_n &_o he_o that_o sow_v to_o the_o spirit_n shall_v of_o the_o spirit_n reap_v life_n everlasting_a and_o then_o he_o add_v let_v we_o not_o be_v weary_a in_o well-doing_n for_o in_o due_a season_n we_o shall_v reap_v if_o we_o faint_v not_o gal_n 6.8_o 9_o he_o mean_v that_o as_o he_o that_o sow_v much_o shall_v reap_v the_o more_o so_o he_o that_o give_v plentiful_o for_o god_n sake_n for_o it_o be_v of_o liberality_n that_o he_o speak_v in_o that_o place_n shall_v be_v plentiful_o reward_v at_o god_n hand_n where_o further_o because_o do_v of_o good_a be_v compare_v to_o sow_v of_o seed_n and_o we_o by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o husbandman_n be_v stir_v up_o to_o sow_v our_o seed_n without_o be_v weary_a of_o our_o labour_n we_o have_v hence_o occasion_v give_v we_o of_o two_o good_a meditation_n fit_a for_o this_o purpose_n 1._o med._n the_o first_o be_v that_o no_o man_n think_v his_o seed_n lose_v though_o it_o rot_v for_o a_o time_n in_o the_o earth_n because_o he_o know_v that_o at_o the_o harvest_n it_o will_v bring_v forth_o 20_o or_o 30_o or_o it_o may_v be_v 40_o for_o one_o and_o so_o if_o we_o give_v to_o good_a use_n if_o we_o relieve_v the_o oppress_v &_o abound_v in_o work_n of_o devotion_n though_o we_o do_v not_o present_o see_v any_o profit_n by_o they_o yet_o none_o of_o they_o be_v lose_v when_o the_o harvest_n be_v come_v the_o crop_n will_v make_v a_o recompense_n for_o all_o and_o we_o shall_v receive_v our_o seed_n with_o advantage_n 2._o med._n among_o man_n they_o be_v count_v rich_a man_n that_o have_v good_a store_n of_o ground_n for_o their_o tillage_n &_o every_o man_n be_v glad_a if_o he_o can_v purchase_v land_n where_o he_o may_v sow_v in_o the_o spring_n and_o then_o reap_v the_o crop_n at_o the_o harvest_n and_o so_o every_o one_o among_o we_o that_o desire_v to_o be_v rich_a towards_o god_n shall_v be_v glad_a when_o he_o have_v ground_n to_o sow_v his_o seed_n of_o righteousness_n in_o that_o his_o crop_n may_v be_v the_o great_a at_o the_o harvest_n for_o example_n if_o we_o see_v a_o poor_a servant_n of_o christ_n in_o want_n and_o distress_n there_o be_v a_o piece_n of_o ground_n to_o sow_v our_o seed_n of_o charity_n in_o if_o we_o relieve_v he_o we_o shall_v enrich_v ourselves_o by_o it_o and_o if_o we_o see_v a_o poor_a man_n oppress_v by_o a_o potent_a neighbour_n here_o be_v ground_n to_o sow_v our_o seed_n of_o justice_n in_o if_o we_o can_v and_o do_v help_v he_o to_o his_o right_n we_o shall_v gain_v help_n at_o god_n hand_n a_o hundred_o fold_n more_o and_o if_o we_o meet_v with_o a_o man_n that_o be_v sad_a and_o perplex_a in_o mind_n here_o be_v ground_n to_o sow_v our_o seed_n of_o compassion_n and_o comfort_n in_o and_o if_o we_o help_v to_o support_v and_o strengthen_v he_o in_o his_o grief_n god_n will_v comfort_v our_o soul_n against_o all_o perplexity_n and_o fear_n the_o sum_n be_v a_o man_n can_v be_v a_o loser_n by_o do_v of_o good_a deed_n no_o more_o than_o the_o husbandman_n be_v a_o loser_n by_o sow_v of_o his_o seed_n i_o pray_v as_o our_o church_n do_v stir_v up_o o_o lord_n the_o will_n of_o thy_o faithful_a people_n that_o they_o plenteous_o bring_v forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o good_a work_n may_v of_o thou_o be_v plenteous_o reward_v through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n cap._n ix_o hear_v and_o do_v compare_v together_o and_o how_o and_o with_o what_o difference_n they_o concur_v as_o jont_a helper_n of_o our_o salvation_n cap._n 9_o hitherto_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o two_o duty_n of_o hear_v and_o do_v of_o god_n word_n several_o and_o apart_o now_o it_o will_v help_v we_o not_o a_o little_a both_o for_o understand_v the_o right_a use_n of_o these_o duty_n and_o for_o attain_v to_o blessedness_n by_o they_o if_o for_o conclusion_n of_o all_o we_o compare_v they_o together_o &_o consider_v how_o &_o in_o what_o manner_n they_o concur_v to_o the_o procure_n of_o our_o happiness_n to_o which_o purpose_n that_o i_o may_v speak_v the_o more_o plain_o and_o distinct_o i_o will_v set_v down_o that_o which_o i_o have_v to_o say_v in_o three_o several_a conclusion_n and_o they_o be_v these_o i._o concl._n hear_v of_o god_n word_n whether_o read_v or_o preach_v be_v so_o far_o forth_o only_o useful_a for_o a_o christian_n blessedness_n as_o it_o direct_v and_o further_v he_o to_o the_o keep_n of_o god_n word_n and_o the_o do_v of_o his_o will_n contain_v in_o it_o for_o proof_n hereof_o there_o be_v these_o argument_n or_o reason_n 1._o arg._n hear_v of_o god_n word_n be_v therefore_o available_a to_o blessedness_n because_o by_o it_o we_o learn_v the_o way_n to_o happiness_n and_o be_v by_o it_o persuade_v to_o walk_v and_o go_v on_o in_o that_o way_n this_o to_o be_v the_o use_n of_o god_n word_n hear_v and_o read_v i_o have_v prove_v already_o and_o other_o use_n then_o this_o the_o scripture_n reveil_v none_o nor_o can_v any_o man_n with_o reason_n imagine_v any_o other_o i_o now_o add_v hereto_o as_o a_o assumption_n to_o that_o proposition_n but_o the_o way_n to_o blessedness_n be_v by_o the_o obedience_n of_o god_n law_n and_o the_o keep_n of_o his_o word_n this_o be_v prove_v by_o those_o scripture_n which_o call_v god_n commandment_n his_o way_n by_o which_o he_o lead_v man_n to_o heaven_n and_o happiness_n and_o our_o keep_n or_o observe_v of_o those_o commandment_n a_o walk_n in_o that_o way_n in_o this_o kind_n david_n describe_v the_o happy_a estate_n of_o a_o righteous_a man_n say_v bless_a be_v they_o that_o keep_v his_o testimony_n they_o also_o do_v no_o iniquity_n but_o walk_v in_o his_o way_n ps_n 119.2_o 3._o but_o solomon_n more_o direct_o to_o this_o purpose_n he_o be_v in_o the_o way_n of_o life_n that_o keep_v instruction_n pro._n 10.17_o where_o 1_o when_o he_o say_v he_o that_o keep_v instruction_n he_o mean_v such_o a_o one_o as_o submit_v himself_o to_o be_v guide_v by_o god_n word_n and_o do_v that_o which_o god_n teach_v he_o therein_o and_o 2._o when_o he_o say_v of_o such_o a_o man_n that_o he_o be_v in_o the_o way_n of_o life_n he_o mean_v he_o be_v go_v on_o in_o the_o right_a way_n to_o eternal_a life_n and_o happiness_n and_o to_o like_o purpose_n david_n pray_v teach_v i_o the_o way_n of_o thy_o statute_n and_o i_o shall_v keep_v it_o unto_o the_o end_n ps_n 119.33_o and_o so_o he_o promise_v i_o will_v run_v the_o way_n of_o thy_o commandment_n when_o thou_o shall_v enlarge_v my_o heart_n v._o 32._o in_o all_o which_o and_o many_o other_o say_n to_o like_a purpose_n we_o have_v two_o thing_n worth_a our_o observation_n 1._o that_o the_o keep_n of_o god_n word_n be_v a_o walk_n in_o god_n way_n and_o 2._o that_o this_o way_n of_o god_n in_o which_o we_o be_v to_o walk_v be_v also_o the_o way_n of_o life_n and_o happiness_n and_o from_o hence_o the_o collection_n be_v clear_a if_o hear_v do_v therefore_o profit_v we_o to_o eternal_a life_n because_o by_o it_o we_o learn_v the_o right_a way_n that_o lead_v thereunto_o and_o this_o way_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o keep_n of_o god_n word_n then_o hear_v be_v only_o so_o far_o available_a to_o blessedness_n as_o it_o further_v we_o to_o a_o godly_a life_n 2._o arg._n in_o scripture_n hear_v of_o god_n word_n be_v commend_v unto_o
