and_o gospel-profession_n why_o then_o go_v to_o god_n and_o humble_a yourself_o before_o he_o in_o reference_n to_o the_o carnality_n of_o your_o profession_n second_o in_o case_n you_o have_v begin_v a_o profession_n of_o christ_n be_v sure_a that_o you_o look_v well_o to_o your_o beginning_n and_o setting_n out_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o a_o carnal_a beginning_n may_v make_v a_o spiritual_a end_n but_o ordinary_o if_o man_n set_v out_o the_o wrong_a way_n at_o the_o first_o they_o go_v wrong_v all_o the_o day_n after_o and_o it_o be_v usual_a with_o man_n to_o be_v carnal_a at_o the_o entrance_n into_o their_o profession_n facite_fw-la i_o etc._n etc._n say_v he_o make_v i_o bishop_n of_o rome_n and_o i_o will_v be_v a_o christian_n but_o dimidium_fw-la facti_fw-la he_o that_o have_v well_o begin_v have_v do_v half_a his_o work_n be_v sure_a therefore_o that_o you_o look_v to_o your_o beginning_n and_o first_o setting_n out_o for_o godliness_n and_o in_o case_n

now_o come_v to_o that_o mount_n where_o the_o lord_n have_v give_v you_o wine_n upon_o the_o lees_n well_o refine_v ordinance_n refine_v and_o gospel_n enjoyment_n refine_v and_o what_o do_v these_o call_v for_o but_o a_o refine_a conversation_n and_o how_o shall_v that_o be_v but_o by_o make_v it_o your_o work_n and_o business_n to_o refine_v all_o your_o duty_n true_o i_o have_v pray_v many_o time_n but_o now_o i_o will_v go_v and_o refine_v all_o my_o prayer_n i_o have_v converse_v with_o the_o saint_n now_o i_o will_v go_v and_o refine_v my_o converse_v yea_o i_o will_v make_v it_o my_o work_n now_o to_o refine_v my_o work_n four_o whether_o you_o be_v of_o long_a or_o late_o stand_v in_o religion_n pray_v much_o for_o the_o pouring_n forth_o of_o the_o spirit_n upon_o you_o you_o read_v in_o the_o gospel_n that_o the_o disciple_n be_v very_o carnal_a before_o christ_n death_n but_o after_o his_o ascension_n than_o they_o be_v very_o spiritual_a why_o because_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v then_o fall_v down_o upon_o they_o will_v you_o be_v more_o spiritual_a and_o less_o carnal_a pray_v for_o the_o pouring_n out_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n upon_o your_o soul_n and_o five_o take_v heed_n of_o a_o selfish_a spirit_n especial_o in_o matter_n of_o religion_n for_o a_o selfish_a spirit_n be_v a_o carnal_a spirit_n the_o more_o plainness_n of_o heart_n you_o have_v the_o more_o free_a you_o will_v be_v from_o design_n and_o selfish_a carnality_n go_v therefore_o to_o the_o lord_n and_o pray_v unto_o he_o for_o a_o plain_a and_o open_a spirit_n and_o sixthly_a and_o in_o case_n you_o be_v to_o deal_v with_o any_o fleshly_a concernment_n there_o watch_v most_o a_o good_a man_n shall_v be_v spiritual_a in_o carnal_a thing_n but_o when_o we_o meddle_v with_o carnal_a thing_n we_o be_v apt_a to_o be_v carnalize_v with_o they_o and_o therefore_o the_o more_o carnal_a the_o concernment_n be_v the_o more_o do_v you_o watch_v and_o pray_v lest_o you_o enter_v into_o this_o temptation_n seven_o be_v sure_a that_o you_o take_v heed_n of_o converse_v with_o carnal_a and_o wicked_a company_n evil_a word_n corrupt_v good_a manner_n say_v the_o apostle_n and_o what_o good_a word_n shall_v you_o have_v with_o they_o with_o they_o you_o shall_v meet_v with_o that_o which_o will_v prejudice_v you_o against_o what_o be_v good_a and_o those_o that_o be_v good_a will_v you_o therefore_o be_v free_v from_o the_o carnality_n of_o profession_n take_v heed_n how_o you_o come_v into_o carnal_a wicked_a company_n and_o in_o the_o 8_o place_n eight_o call_v yourself_o often_o to_o a_o account_n and_o examine_v your_o way_n whether_o they_o be_v spiritual_a or_o carnal_a come_v o_o my_o soul_n thou_o have_v be_v in_o such_o a_o company_n but_o have_v thou_o not_o be_v frothy_a vain_a passionate_a or_o carnal_a in_o it_o thou_o have_v be_v this_o day_n among_o those_o that_o be_v spiritual_a but_o have_v not_o thou_o be_v carnal_a in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o come_v o_o my_o soul_n thou_o have_v be_v at_o such_o a_o work_n this_o day_n but_o have_v thou_o not_o be_v selfish_a in_o it_o have_v not_o thou_o desire_v to_o be_v see_v therein_o have_v not_o thou_o be_v carnal_a even_o in_o thy_o spiritual_n thus_o daily_o call_v yourselves_o to_o a_o account_n and_o nine_o consider_v but_o this_o one_o thing_n that_o the_o only_a way_n to_o lose_v a_o mercy_n be_v to_o be_v carnal_a in_o it_o if_o you_o be_v a_o professor_n one_o that_o god_n love_v the_o more_o carnal_a engine_n you_o use_v to_o obtain_v a_o mercy_n the_o more_o like_o you_o be_v to_o lose_v it_o and_o in_o avoid_v of_o misery_n the_o more_o carnal_a your_o engine_n be_v to_o avoid_v it_o the_o more_o like_o it_o be_v for_o to_o come_v upon_o you_o if_o you_o be_v wicked_a and_o ungodly_a the_o lord_n it_o may_v be_v will_v let_v you_o obtain_v your_o end_n by_o your_o carnal_a engine_n but_o if_o you_o be_v godly_a the_o more_o carnal_a engine_n you_o use_v to_o obtain_v a_o mercy_n the_o more_o like_o you_o be_v to_o lose_v it_o now_o therefore_o as_o you_o do_v desire_n to_o avoid_v misery_n and_o to_o obtain_v mercy_n labour_v to_o be_v more_o spiritual_a take_v heed_n of_o carnal_a engine_n in_o all_o your_o design_n make_v it_o your_o work_n and_o business_n to_o be_v more_o spiritual_a rest_v not_o upon_o your_o holy_a mount_n say_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o temple_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o it_o be_v carnal_a and_o take_v heed_n of_o division_n strife_n and_o envy_n for_o if_o these_o thing_n be_v among_o we_o be_v we_o not_o carnal_a and_o this_o ma●_n easy_o be_v for_o you_o see_v the_o text_n and_o you_o remember_v the_o doctrine_n possible_o great_a professor_n may_v be_v very_o carnal_a wherefore_o let_v we_o all_o make_v it_o our_o work_n and_o business_n to_o be_v more_o spiritual_a what_o our_o work_n be_v and_o how_o to_o be_v do_v eccles_n 9.10_o whatsoever_o thy_o hand_n find_v
