therefore_o in_o heaven_n it_o be_v say_v there_o be_v neither_o sun_n nor_o moon_n now_o what_o be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o excellency_n in_o any_o creature_n that_o be_v magnify_v there_o but_o god_n be_v all_o in_o all_o he_o be_v sun_n and_o moon_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o revelation_n of_o saint_n john_n it_o be_v say_v and_o say_v to_o their_o honour_n it_o be_v make_v their_o

glorious_a creature_n when_o the_o evil_a angel_n begin_v to_o reflect_v upon_o themselves_o it_o be_v their_o ruin_n they_o fall_v from_o god_n for_o the_o creature_n of_o itself_o be_v like_o a_o

down_o to_o the_o low_a pit_n and_o therefore_o of_o all_o grace_n labour_n for_o empty_v grace_n as_o faith_n and_o love_n for_o these_o give_v all_o unto_o god_n nothing_o to_o man_n self_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v the_o great_a grace_n in_o religion_n which_o you_o must_v chief_o labour_v for_o second_o from_o that_o there_o be_v a_o power_n in_o godliness_n if_o it_o be_v such_o a_o powerful_a thing_n as_o you_o have_v hear_v it_o 2._o be_v than_o this_o may_v serve_v to_o comfort_v we_o in_o the_o way_n of_o it_o wheresoever_o it_o be_v in_o truth_n there_o it_o be_v in_o

godliness_n thou_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o overcome_v for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n consist_v in_o power_n when_o god_n come_v to_o dwell_v in_o any_o man_n heart_n he_o send_v godliness_n into_o it_o which_o rule_v in_o it_o as_o a_o king_n in_o his_o kingdom_n think_v therefore_o of_o it_o as_o of_o monarch_n as_o alexander_n be_v or_o those_o which_o daniel_n speak_v of_o it_o carry_v all_o before_o it_o it_o bring_v every_o thought_n into_o subjection_n and_o therefore_o also_o the_o spirit_n be_v call_v a_o spirit_n of_o power_n and_o if_o you_o have_v godliness_n it_o come_v from_o the_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o be_v accompany_v with_o power_n and_o therefore_o christ_n be_v say_v to_o be_v full_a of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o of_o power_n and_o so_o stephen_n and_o john_n the_o baptist_n and_o grace_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o powerful_a thing_n be_v strong_a in_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o in_o the_o power_n of_o his_o might_n now_o the_o reason_n why_o godliness_n have_v power_n be_v because_o god_n have_v put_v virtue_n into_o it_o as_o when_o you_o see_v such_o and_o such_o a_o herb_n have_v such_o a_o virtue_n in_o it_o to_o do_v such_o and_o such_o a_o thing_n it_o be_v because_o god_n have_v endue_v it_o with_o such_o a_o power_n and_o so_o have_v he_o do_v with_o godliness_n if_o therefore_o thou_o have_v any_o thing_n to_o do_v in_o religion_n set_v on_o it_o have_v thou_o any_o lust_n to_o overcome_v set_v on_o it_o and_o let_v i_o speak_v to_o thou_o as_o he_o speak_v to_o gideon_n go_v on_o thou_o valiant_a man_n in_o the_o might_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o people_n of_o israel_n travel_v to_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n see_v the_o city_n wall_v to_o heaven_n and_o that_o the_o giant_n be_v there_o the_o son_n of_o anak_n yet_o joshua_n bid_v they_o be_v of_o good_a comfort_n and_o fear_v not_o for_o the_o lord_n will_v fight_v for_o they_o and_o deliver_v their_o adversary_n into_o their_o hand_n so_o though_o you_o see_v difficulty_n in_o the_o way_n to_o heaven_n yet_o godliness_n be_v a_o powerful_a thing_n that_o will_v carry_v you_o through_o all_o therefore_o likewise_o the_o apostle_n have_v pray_v for_o the_o

so_o suppose_v to_o subdue_v some_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n be_v a_o thing_n so_o hard_o as_o you_o think_v it_o will_v never_o be_v do_v nay_o you_o conceive_v it_o to_o be_v a_o thing_n so_o

say_v to_o mary_n believe_v and_o you_o shall_v see_v the_o power_n of_o god_n thou_o must_v go_v to_o god_n for_o it_o by_o faith_n and_o god_n will_v show_v it_o forth_o unto_o you_o and_o you_o shall_v have_v fruit_n of_o it_o the_o end_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o only_o to_o apply_v the_o holy_a promise_n of_o justification_n but_o of_o sanctification_n also_o as_o for_o example_n he_o have_v

and_o all_o that_o sin_n may_v not_o reign_v in_o their_o mortal_a body_n go_v to_o god_n then_o and_o urge_v he_o with_o his_o promise_n and_o he_o can_v deny_v you_o when_o man_n therefore_o think_v to_o excuse_v themselves_o by_o say_v i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o do_v such_o a_o thing_n what_o will_v you_o have_v i_o to_o do_v it_o be_v no_o excuse_n for_o if_o they_o be_v but_o willing_a it_o

whence_o proceed_v it_o if_o from_o self_n love_n as_o it_o usual_o do_v in_o such_o case_n because_o the_o soul_n be_v then_o strong_o possess_v with_o a_o apprehension_n of_o death_n and_o hell_n and_o another_o life_n than_o there_o be_v no_o more_o than_o nature_n in_o it_o for_o the_o stream_n rise_v not_o high_a than_o the_o fountain_n a_o beast_n will_v do_v as_o much_o which_o sink_v into_o danger_n will_v struggle_v to_o save_v itself_o but_o if_o it_o proceed_v from_o love_n to_o god_n why_o be_v it_o not_o do_v soon_o why_o not_o in_o the_o flower_n of_o our_o youth_n yea_o when_o it_o be_v do_v soon_a will_v we_o not_o be_v hearty_o sorry_a that_o it_o be_v not_o do_v soon_o if_o it_o proceed_v out_o of_o love_n to_o he_o and_o if_o it_o thus_o proceed_v out_o of_o a_o holy_a love_n to_o god_n it_o can_v arise_v but_o from_o his_o holy_a spirit_n the_o breathe_n of_o which_o spirit_n as_o they_o be_v most_o free_a so_o be_v they_o most_o precious_a therefore_o when_o such_o a_o spark_n be_v kindle_v in_o our_o heart_n let_v we_o be_v careful_a to_o put_v fuel_n to_o it_o and_o not_o suffer_v it_o to_o go_v out_o again_o all_o the_o creature_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n can_v help_v we_o again_o to_o they_o yea_o the_o best_a ordinance_n be_v but_o as_o pen_n without_o ink_n or_o empty_a conduit-pipe_n which_o give_v not_o a_o drop_n of_o true_a grace_n except_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o fountain_n please_v to_o convey_v it_o by_o they_o you_o know_v the_o famous_a story_n of_o francis_n spira_n what_o bitter_a cry_n he_o use_v upon_o his_o

desperate_a word_n in_o his_o mouth_n i_o be_o damn_v therefore_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n how_o we_o let_v such_o motion_n rise_v up_o like_o bubble_n in_o we_o and_o break_v again_o or_o go_v our_o like_a spark_n upon_o wet_a tinder_n lest_o often_o check_v and_o snibbing_a and_o quench_v the_o spirit_n in_o the_o end_n we_o be_v guilty_a of_o resist_v the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o god_n shall_v

to_o god_n as_o they_o slander_v it_o but_o as_o paul_n make_v the_o consequence_n because_o god_n work_v in_o you_o both_o the_o will_n and_o the_o deed_n therefore_o work_v out_o your_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a arminius_n contrary_o ourselves_o work_v in_o ourselves_o the_o will_n and_o the_o deed_n therefore_o we_o need_v not_o work_v out_o our_o salvation_n with_o any_o such_o

yet_o he_o can_v though_o he_o desire_v to_o serve_v god_n yet_o it_o be_v impossible_a therefore_o to_o take_v away_o this_o scruple_n we_o must_v know_v that_o god_n be_v exceed_o free_a and_o openhanded_a in_o give_v grace_n if_o it_o may_v be_v take_v in_o time_n and_o if_o we_o will_v not_o believe_v it_o john_n come_v here_o and_o tell_v you_o i_o have_v receive_v of_o his_o fullness_n and_o not_o only_o i_o but_o all_o we_o have_v receive_v that_o be_v all_o other_o saint_n that_o either_o be_v or_o have_v be_v and_o since_o john_n time_n many_o thousand_o thousand_o and_o shall_v

hear_v of_o a_o famous_a physician_n or_o a_o heal_n well_o it_o stir_v he_o up_o to_o go_v and_o try_v but_o when_o he_o meet_v with_o 100_o and_o 1000_o come_v from_o the_o well_o and_o tell_v he_o i_o have_v be_v there_o and_o be_o heal_v i_o have_v be_v there_o and_o be_o make_v whole_a than_o he_o make_v no_o question_n so_o do_v john_n here_o all_o we_o have_v receive_v of_o his_o fullness_n like_o a_o bird_n that_o have_v find_v out_o a_o full_a heap_n and_o call_v his_o fellow_n to_o it_o say_v not_o therefore_o oh_o my_o sin_n be_v so_o great_a and_o my_o want_n be_v so_o many_o but_o

it_o do_v not_o reign_v in_o the_o saint_n yet_o 2._o do_v remain_v and_o dwell_v in_o they_o for_o proof_n whereof_o see_v this_o place_n of_o scripture_n if_o any_o man_n think_v say_v 8._o saint_n john_n that_o he_o have_v no_o sin_n he_o be_v a_o liar_n and_o there_o be_v no_o truth_n in_o he_o the_o truth_n whereof_o will_v be_v see_v in_o these_o thing_n clear_o 1._o because_o our_o knowledge_n be_v imperfect_a and_o therefore_o every_o grace_n be_v imperfect_a as_o our_o faith_n and_o so_o our_o love_n and_o therefore_o much_o sin_n must_v be_v in_o a_o man_n in_o as_o much_o as_o his_o grace_n be_v not_o perfect_a 2._o the_o flesh_n lust_v against_o the_o spirit_n therefore_o it_o be_v plain_a there_o be_v sin_n in_o we_o yea_o so_o much_o that_o often_o time_n it_o even_o captivate_v we_o 3._o we_o have_v in_o this_o life_n but_o the_o first-fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n now_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v it_o in_o fullness_n we_o shall_v have_v no_o more_o than_o enough_o therefore_o have_v now_o but_o the_o first-fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n mortification_n and_o sanctification_n sin_n be_v not_o whole_o abolish_v in_o the_o saint_n in_o this_o life_n but_o do_v dwell_v in_o they_o the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v 1._o to_o humble_v we_o and_o to_o make_v we_o see_v what_o be_v in_o 1_o our_o heart_n and_o to_o make_v we_o know_v that_o the_o lord_n bring_v we_o to_o the_o holy_a land_n therefore_o god_n sometime_o leave_v the_o israelite_n to_o try_v they_o and_o so_o he_o trouble_a hezechiah_n to_o know_v what_o be_v in_o his_o heart_n and_o so_o he_o send_v a_o messenger_n of_o satan_n to_o buffet_v s._n paul_n lest_o he_o shall_v be_v exalt_v above_o measure_n through_o abundance_n of_o revelation_n and_o so_o the_o lord_n do_v deal_v with_o every_o saint_n 2._o that_o christ_n may_v be_v acknowledge_v for_o if_o we_o have_v no_o sin_n in_o we_o we_o shall_v not_o acknowledge_v 2._o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o mediation_n so_o much_o as_o now_o we_o do_v all_o be_v shut_v up_o under_o sin_n that_o he_o may_v have_v mercy_n upon_o all_o rom._n 3._o 9_o &_o 11._o 32._o that_o be_v that_o it_o may_v be_v manifest_v and_o declare_v that_o they_o be_v save_v mere_o by_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n as_o be_v say_v rom._n 3._o 26._o otherwise_o we_o shall_v not_o right_o value_v our_o justification_n and_o sanctification_n but_o see_v he_o subdue_a pardon_v our_o sin_n we_o see_v what_o need_n we_o have_v of_o he_o how_o that_o we_o be_v lose_v without_o he_o 3._o that_o we_o may_v exercise_v our_o faith_n 1_o joh._n 3._o 2._o 3_o we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o it_o do_v not_o yet_o appear_v what_o we_o shall_v be_v etc._n etc._n so_o god_n have_v hide_v his_o child_n under_o baseness_n that_o their_o faith_n may_v be_v exercise_v for_o thing_n we_o see_v we_o may_v easy_o believe_v but_o faith_n be_v of_o thing_n not_o see_v therefore_o god_n do_v as_o man_n do_v hide_v jewel_n under_o base_a place_n where_o man_n will_v look_v least_o for_o they_o wherefore_o wicked_a man_n stumble_v and_o be_v offend_v at_o this_o because_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v make_v a_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n that_o we_o need_v and_o believe_v the_o remission_n and_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n but_o let_v we_o apply_v it_o 1._o this_o shall_v teach_v we_o not_o to_o be_v discourage_v 1_o for_o those_o infirmity_n that_o be_v in_o we_o for_o there_o be_v such_o in_o every_o saint_n sin_n be_v a_o guest_n to_o evil_a man_n but_o a_o thief_n to_o the_o godly_a which_o they_o will_v not_o have_v come_v in_o their_o heart_n so_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o wear_v a_o chain_n as_o a_o ornament_n and_o another_o as_o a_o fetter_n to_o restrain_v they_o therefore_o the_o godly_a ought_v not_o to_o be_v discourage_v but_o to_o assure_v themselves_o they_o be_v under_o grace_n 2._o we_o must_v not_o censure_v man_n for_o the_o slip_n and_o fall_v we_o see_v in_o they_o for_o we_o must_v remember_v 2._o that_o sin_n dwell_v in_o they_o we_o must_v not_o present_o judge_v they_o to_o be_v hypocrite_n be_v not_o many_o master_n say_v s._n james_n that_o be_v censure_v he_o not_o for_o he_o stand_v or_o fall_v to_o his_o own_o master_n rome_n 14._o 4._o 3._o this_o shall_v teach_v we_o to_o be_v watchful_a and_o not_o to_o think_v our_o labour_n be_v at_o a_o end_n when_o we_o be_v in_o the_o 3_o state_n of_o grace_n for_o sin_n still_o dwell_v in_o we_o and_o though_o we_o have_v the_o victory_n over_o sin_n one_o day_n it_o will_v fight_v against_o we_o the_o next_o day_n as_o in_o a_o garden_n the_o weed_n will_v grow_v because_o the_o root_n be_v not_o quite_o pluck_v up_o and_o take_v away_o so_o sin_n be_v in_o we_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v think_v it_o will_v fight_v against_o we_o and_o vex_v we_o and_o therefore_o i_o say_v let_v we_o renew_v our_o strength_n now_o for_o this_o we_o must_v do_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o weaken_v sin_n second_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o make_v we_o watchful_a and_o so_o i_o have_v also_o do_v with_o the_o second_o doctrine_n again_o from_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o these_o word_n or_o reason_n of_o the_o promise_n make_v unto_o they_o in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o this_o verse_n that_o sin_n shall_v not_o have_v dominion_n over_o they_o because_o they_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n i_o gather_v this_o conclusion_n viz._n that_o the_o way_n to_o overcome_v sin_n be_v to_o get_v assurance_n of_o the_o love_n and_o grace_n of_o 3._o god_n and_o that_o it_o be_v forgive_v they_o the_o reason_n why_o the_o apostle_n promise_v they_o sin_n shall_v not_o have_v dominion_n over_o they_o be_v because_o they_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n that_o be_v they_o have_v assurance_n of_o god_n love_n and_o that_o their_o sin_n be_v forgive_v they_o this_o be_v prove_v from_o that_o faith_n purify_v the_o heart_n and_o you_o repent_v and_o believe_v the_o gospel_n now_o the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v these_o four_o especial_o 1._o because_o it_o be_v the_o mean_n to_o get_v the_o spirit_n without_o which_o no_o sin_n be_v forgive_v which_o come_v by_o 1_o faith_n for_o it_o be_v not_o receive_v by_o the_o law_n for_o so_o say_v the_o apostle_n receive_v you_o the_o spirit_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n or_o by_o the_o hear_n of_o faith_n gal._n 3._o 2._o second_o it_o be_v the_o way_n to_o make_v we_o believe_v the_o promise_n to_o make_v we_o believe_v that_o we_o be_v transform_v 2._o into_o a_o heavenly_a nature_n for_o when_o we_o believe_v the_o promise_n be_v true_a that_o work_v love_n in_o we_o and_o love_n transform_v we_o into_o the_o divine_a nature_n without_o which_o no_o sin_n be_v overcome_v three_o because_o hereby_o we_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v the_o tentation_n which_o be_v either_o for_o the_o enjoy_n of_o 3_o good_a or_o flee_v of_o evil_n so_o that_o these_o promise_n propound_v more_o good_a than_o sin_n can_v harm_v sin_n threaten_v the_o loss_n of_o outward_a thing_n but_o the_o promise_n propound_v eternal_a life_n which_o be_v better_o than_o all_o thing_n else_o in_o the_o world_n four_o because_o we_o do_v delight_n in_o god_n for_o when_o we_o do_v believe_v in_o god_n that_o our_o sin_n be_v forgive_v we_o in_o christ_n than_o we_o look_v at_o god_n as_o on_o a_o merciful_a father_n and_o then_o we_o cease_v to_o delight_v in_o the_o world_n and_o we_o begin_v to_o delight_v ourselves_o in_o the_o lord_n the_o use_n hereof_o be_v first_o for_o direction_n to_o teach_v we_o 1_o the_o way_n how_o to_o heal_v a_o sin_n and_o that_o be_v to_o get_v assurance_n that_o it_o be_v pardon_v and_o forgive_v for_o legal_a terror_n do_v not_o heal_v a_o sin_n but_o it_o be_v faith_n that_o purify_v the_o heart_n and_o purify_n pacify_v it_o as_o a_o traitor_n will_v not_o come_v in_o when_o he_o hear_v a_o proclamation_n out_o for_o his_o death_n but_o when_o he_o hear_v he_o shall_v live_v and_o be_v pardon_v this_o make_v he_o to_o come_v in_o so_o we_o when_o we_o only_o fix_v our_o eye_n upon_o the_o legal_a terror_n shall_v not_o heal_v our_o sin_n but_o when_o we_o believe_v they_o be_v pardon_v this_o heal_v they_o but_o sorrow_n and_o a_o break_a heart_n be_v require_v for_o object_n sinner_n to_o be_v assure_v of_o their_o forgiveness_n this_o sorrow_n be_v not_o so_o much_o command_v but_o it_o answ._n be_v that_o whereby_o god_n prepare_v his_o servant_n heart_n to_o make_v they_o see_v what_o need_n they_o have_v of_o pardon_n and_o so_o they_o may_v ask_v pardon_n but_o
