¶_o a_o frvitfull_a sermon_n upon_o part_n of_o the_o 5._o chapter_n of_o the_o first_o epistle_n of_o saint_n paul_n to_o the_o thessalonian_o by_o henry_n smith_n which_o sermon_n be_v take_v by_o

the_o spirit_n 20._o despise_v not_o prophesy_v 21._o try_v all_o thing_n and_o keep_v that_o which_o be_v good_a 22._o abstain_v from_o all_o appearance_n of_o evil_a have_v late_o speak_v of_o these_o word_n in_o all_o thing_n give_v thanks_n and_o quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n touch_v the_o first_o i_o show_v you_o that_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a thing_n to_o obtain_v of_o god_n than_o to_o be_v thankful_a to_o he_o for_o more_o have_v go_v away_o speeder_n 17._o than_o have_v go_v away_o thanker_n then_o how_o the_o wicked_a be_v behold_v to_o god_n aswell_o as_o the_o just_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o sun_n do_v shine_v upon_o the_o just_a and_o unjust_a then_o how_o jaacob_n come_v not_o so_o bare_a to_o laban_n 30._o when_o he_o bring_v nothing_o with_o he_o but_o his_o staff_n in_o his_o hand_n as_o man_n come_v into_o this_o world_n without_o strength_n or_o staff_n to_o sustain_v he_o which_o make_v the_o apostle_n to_o ask_v 7._o what_o have_v you_o which_o you_o have_v not_o receive_v therefore_o to_o teach_v man_n to_o be_v thankful_a unto_o his_o maker_n he_o be_v not_o make_v in_o paradise_n the_o place_n of_o joy_n and_o happiness_n but_o be_v make_v out_o of_o paradise_n he_o be_v bring_v into_o paradise_n 8._o to_o show_v how_o all_o his_o joy_n and_o happiness_n come_v from_o god_n and_o not_o from_o nature_n that_o he_o may_v know_v where_o to_o bestow_v his_o thanks_n therefore_o david_n to_o persuade_v all_o man_n unto_o thankfulness_n say_v it_o be_v a_o good_a thing_n and_o pleasant_a to_o be_v thankful_a 1._o if_o he_o have_v say_v no_o more_o but_o good_a all_o which_o love_n goodness_n be_v bind_v to_o be_v thankful_a but_o when_o he_o say_v not_o only_o good_a but_o pleasant_a too_o all_o which_o love_n pleasure_n be_v bind_v to_o be_v thankful_a and_o therefore_o as_o peter_n mother_n in_o law_n 8_o so_o soon_o as_o christ_n have_v heal_v she_o of_o a_o fever_n rise_v up_o immediate_o to_o minister_v unto_o he_o so_o we_o so_o soon_o as_o christ_n have_v do_v any_o thing_n for_o we_o shall_v rise_v up_o immediate_o to_o serve_v he_o 1._o as_o annah_n when_o she_o have_v receive_v a_o son_n from_o god_n do_v consecrate_v he_o to_o god_n again_o so_o what_o soever_o we_o receive_v of_o god_n we_o must_v give_v it_o to_o god_n again_o that_o be_v use_v it_o to_o his_o glory_n and_o make_v it_o one_o of_o our_o mean_n to_o serve_v he_o for_o all_o thing_n which_o we_o receive_v in_o this_o life_n be_v give_v unto_o we_o lest_o we_o shall_v want_v any_o mean_n to_o serve_v god_n then_o because_o the_o apostle_n require_v thanks_n for_o all_o thing_n i_o show_v you_o that_o he_o be_v not_o thankful_a before_o god_n which_o thank_v he_o only_o for_o his_o benefit_n but_o he_o be_v thankful_a in_o deed_n which_o thank_v he_o for_o his_o chastisement_n it_o may_v be_v while_o the_o lord_n give_v many_o will_v say_v bless_a be_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o when_o the_o lord_n take_v away_o 1_o who_o will_v say_v bless_v be_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n there_o be_v one_o example_n they_o of_o paul_n doctrine_n which_o be_v in_o all_o thing_n to_o give_v thanks_n there_o be_v a_o other_o example_n of_o paul_n doctrine_n which_o give_v thanks_n to_o god_n for_o his_o rod_n for_o a_o obedient_a child_n do_v not_o only_o kiss_v the_o hand_n which_o give_v but_o the_o rod_n that_o beat_v after_o speak_v of_o these_o word_n quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n i_o show_v you_o that_o the_o spirit_n do_v signify_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o spirit_n in_o the_o three_o of_o mathewe_n 3_o be_v liken_v to_o fire_n and_o therefore_o paul_n say_v well_o quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n because_o fire_n may_v be_v quench_v here_o i_o take_v occasion_n to_o speak_v of_o zeal_n which_o be_v the_o fire_n of_o the_o spirit_n show_v you_o that_o god_n be_v please_v with_o zeal_n as_o man_n be_v please_v with_o love_n but_o as_o christ_n do_v baptise_v with_o fire_n 11._o so_o john_n do_v baptise_v with_o water_n and_o as_o the_o holy_a ghost_n descend_v with_o fire_n so_o he_o do_v descend_v with_o a_o wind_n that_o cool_v fire_n 2_o show_v that_o our_o zeal_n shall_v be_v a_o temperate_a zeal_n 2_o as_o our_o master_n be_v esaiah_n be_v command_v to_o cry_v but_o not_o to_o roar_v the_o jew_n may_v not_o gather_v too_o much_o manna_n 18._o no_o more_o than_o they_o may_v gather_v too_o little_a as_o there_o be_v a_o measure_n in_o knowledge_n so_o there_o be_v a_o measure_n in_o zeal_n that_o be_v be_v zealous_a according_a to_o discretion_n as_o paul_n say_v 3._o be_v wise_a according_a to_o sobriety_n the_o disciple_n be_v commend_v for_o their_o zeal_n 28._o when_o they_o leave_v all_o to_o follow_v christ_n but_o christ_n reproove_v they_o for_o their_o zeal_n when_o they_o will_v pray_v for_o fire_n from_o 55._o heaven_n to_o consume_v the_o samaritan_n therefore_o zeal_n and_o discreation_n unite_v together_o be_v like_o the_o two_o lion_n which_o support_v the_o throne_n of_o solomon_n 20._o and_o he_o which_o have_v they_o both_o be_v like_o moses_n for_o his_o mildness_n and_o like_o phineas_n for_o his_o fervency_n therefore_o as_o wine_n be_v temper_v with_o water_n so_o let_v discretion_n temper_v zeal_n but_o i_o need_v not_o bring_v water_n to_o quench_v that_o fire_n which_o be_v out_o already_o i_o will_v rather_o i_o can_v say_v of_o you_o you_o be_v too_o zealous_a as_o paul_n tell_v the_o athenian_n they_o be_v too_o superstitious_a 22._o but_o our_o sickness_n be_v not_o a_o hot_a sickness_n but_o a_o cold_a sickness_n the_o hot_a body_n be_v distemper_v but_o the_o cold_a body_n be_v dead_a then_o i_o show_v you_o how_o the_o spirit_n be_v quench_v as_o a_o man_n do_v quench_v his_o reason_n with_o over_o much_o wine_n and_o therefore_o we_o say_v when_o the_o wine_n be_v in_o the_o wit_n be_v out_o because_o before_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v reason_n and_o now_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v none_o so_o our_o zeal_n and_o our_o faith_n and_o our_o love_n be_v quench_v with_o sin_n every_o vain_a thought_n and_o every_o idle_a word_n and_o every_o wicked_a deed_n be_v like_o so_o many_o drop_n to_o quench_v the_o spirit_n of_o god._n some_o quench_v it_o with_o the_o business_n of_o this_o world_n some_o quench_v it_o with_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n some_o quench_v it_o with_o the_o care_n of_o the_o mind_n some_o quench_v it_o with_o long_a delay_n that_o be_v not_o ply_v the_o motion_n when_o it_o come_v but_o cross_v the_o good_a thought_n with_o bad_a thought_n and_o do_v a_o thing_n when_o the_o spirit_n say_v do_v it_o not_o as_o acbab_n go_v to_o battle_n after_o he_o have_v consult_v with_o the_o prophet_n therefore_o paul_n say_v 30._o grieve_v not_o the_o spirit_n shew_v that_o the_o spirit_n be_v often_o grieve_a before_o it_o be_v quench_v and_o this_o be_v principaly_a to_o be_v remember_v that_o when_o a_o man_n begin_v to_o grieve_v and_o check_v and_o persecute_v the_o spirit_n light_o he_o never_o cease_v until_o he_o have_v quench_v it_o that_o be_v until_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v no_o spirit_n at_o all_o but_o walk_v like_o a_o lump_n of_o flesh_n after_o quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n follow_v despise_v not_o prophesy_v in_o the_o end_n of_o this_o epistle_n paul_n speak_v like_o a_o father_n

when_o he_o be_v go_v so_o paul_n as_o though_o he_o be_v set_v to_o give_v good_a counsel_n and_o have_v no_o leisure_n to_o speak_v that_o he_o will_v send_v the_o thessalonian_o a_o brief_a of_o his_o mind_n which_o their_o meditation_n shall_v after_o amplify_v and_o expound_v unto_o they_o his_o first_o advice_n be_v quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v when_o a_o good_a motion_n

shall_v do_v he_o mock_v he_o for_o it_o and_o think_v that_o he_o know_v a_o better_a way_n than_o that_o himself_o so_o they_o come_v to_o hear_v we_o but_o they_o think_v they_o can_v teach_v us._n but_o they_o must_v remember_v that_o paul_n say_v 27._o god_n have_v choose_v the_o foolish_a to_o confound_v the_o wise_a therefore_o if_o they_o think_v themselves_o wise_a let_v they_o think_v we_o those_o fool_n who_o god_n have_v choose_v to_o confound_v they_o for_o although_o at_o all_o other_o time_n we_o be_v as_o plain_a and_o simple_a as_o jacob_n yet_o at_o this_o time_n we_o have_v a_o promise_n and_o it_o be_v give_v we_o for_o your_o sake_n to_o speak_v sometime_o that_o which_o we_o conceive_v not_o ourselves_o because_o the_o hour_n be_v come_v when_o god_n have_v appoint_v to_o call_v some_o of_o you_o as_o he_o have_v do_v some_o of_o you_o before_o therefore_o as_o the_o princely_a spirit_n come_v upon_o saul_n when_o he_o shall_v reign_v to_o teach_v he_o

to_o be_v baptize_v of_o john_n so_o be_v you_o content_v to_o be_v instruct_v of_o we_o that_o if_o we_o be_v more_o simple_a than_o you_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n may_v appear_v more_o in_o

priest_n make_v the_o people_n contemn_v the_o priest_n and_o religion_n too_o why_o might_n none_o carry_v the_o ark_n of_o the_o covenant_n but_o the_o levit_n 8._o be_v it_o not_o lest_o the_o
