apprehension_n neither_o to_o faith_n nor_o peace_n nor_o joy_n nor_o strength_n but_o have_v seem_v to_o be_v as_o unbelieving_a as_o carnal_a and_o as_o fleshly_a as_o ever_o walk_v heavy_o for_o a_o long_a time_n and_o that_o word_n which_o have_v be_v sweet_a to_o other_o that_o at_o the_o same_o time_n hear_v it_o have_v be_v as_o nothing_o to_o they_o that_o word_n which_o have_v raise_v the_o heart_n and_o strengthen_v the_o faith_n and_o inflame_v the_o love_n of_o other_o have_v seem_v to_o have_v no_o effect_n upon_o they_o and_o thus_o some_o have_v continue_v week_n month_n nay_o year_n together_o and_o if_o they_o have_v have_v any_o revive_n it_o have_v be_v but_o as_o a_o morning_n dew_n and_o yet_o at_o last_o when_o the_o father_n appoint_a time_n be_v come_v wherein_o he_o have_v raise_v they_o up_o to_o joy_n and_o peace_n in_o believe_v and_o give_v they_o life_n vigour_n and_o strength_n then_o have_v the_o spirit_n bring_v to_o their_o remembrance_n the_o thing_n which_o they_o hear_v many_o year_n before_o and_o then_o have_v they_o be_v wonderful_o overcome_v and_o take_v with_o it_o and_o it_o have_v bring_v forth_o fruit_n abundant_o in_o they_o therefore_o saint_n you_o that_o say_v you_o find_v little_a or_o no_o effect_n the_o word_n have_v upon_o you_o for_o the_o present_a be_v not_o thereby_o discourage_v but_o go_v on_o to_o read_v and_o to_o hear_v the_o word_n still_o for_o it_o be_v a_o mean_n which_o be_v often_o bless_a to_o many_o but_o three_o be_v it_o so_o that_o it_o be_v a_o bless_a thing_n to_o read_v and_o hear_v the_o word_n so_o as_o to_o keep_v it_o then_o it_o serve_v to_o exhort_v all_o as_o to_o hear_v and_o read_v the_o word_n so_o to_o look_v beyond_o it_o in_o the_o frequent_a hear_n and_o read_v of_o it_o wait_v for_o the_o come_n in_o of_o the_o spirit_n for_o the_o blessing_n be_v not_o pronounce_v upon_o the_o hearer_n of_o the_o word_n only_o but_o such_o as_o hear_v it_o and_o keep_v it_o and_o hear_v it_o and_o do_v it_o and_o then_o shall_v thou_o hear_v the_o word_n so_o as_o to_o keep_v it_o when_o the_o spirit_n come_v along_o with_o it_o therefore_o when_o thou_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n do_v not_o rest_v upon_o the_o bare_a hear_n of_o the_o word_n but_o expect_v the_o come_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o that_o thou_o may_v thus_o do_v consider_v that_o there_o be_v frequent_a precedent_n in_o scripture_n that_o in_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n the_o spirit_n have_v be_v give_v as_o you_o have_v it_o act._n 10._o 44._o while_o peter_n yet_o speak_v these_o word_n the_o holy_a ghost_n fall_v on_o all_o they_o which_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o in_o the_o second_o of_o the_o act_n at_o the_o 41._o verse_n we_o find_v that_o there_o be_v three_o thousand_o soul_n convert_v at_o the_o preach_n of_o peter_n and_o when_o philip_n go_v down_o to_o samaria_n and_o preach_v the_o word_n there_o be_v by_o his_o preach_v many_o convert_v both_o man_n and_o woman_n as_o appear_v act_n 8._o 12._o there_o be_v several_a other_o passage_n in_o the_o act_n to_o this_o purpose_n and_o gal._n 3._o 2._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 whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o spirit_n be_v receive_v by_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o apostle_n call_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o ministration_n of_o the_o spirit_n 2_o cor._n 3._o 8._o therefore_o let_v all_o be_v encourage_v in_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n to_o wait_v for_o the_o spirit_n whereby_o they_o may_v not_o be_v forgetful_a hearer_n but_o doer_n of_o the_o word_n and_o be_v bless_v in_o so_o do_v use_v 4._o and_o in_o the_o last_o place_n it_o serve_v to_o encourage_v all_o saint_n to_o be_v frequent_a in_o read_v of_o and_o meditate_v upon_o the_o book_n of_o the_o revelation_n for_o there_o be_v a_o blessing_n particular_o pronounce_v upon_o they_o that_o read_v or_o hear_v and_o keep_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v write_v therein_o therefore_o let_v none_o be_v discourage_v from_o read_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v write_v in_o this_o book_n because_o they_o be_v so_o hard_a to_o be_v understand_v and_o be_v more_o dark_a and_o mysterious_a than_o most_o place_n of_o scripture_n it_o be_v true_a they_o be_v so_o but_o to_o encourage_v we_o to_o be_v frequent_a in_o read_v of_o it_o notwithstanding_o the_o mysteriousnesse_n of_o it_o the_o holy_a ghost_n here_o pronounce_v a_o particular_a blessing_n to_o it_o which_o be_v a_o special_a encouragement_n to_o incite_v we_o to_o the_o read_n of_o it_o and_o there_o be_v also_o another_o encouragement_n in_o these_o word_n for_o the_o time_n be_v at_o hand_n and_o now_o if_o we_o be_v desirous_a to_o be_v inform_v of_o the_o thing_n that_o concern_v the_o present_a time_n then_o let_v we_o look_v diligent_o into_o the_o

now_o what_o i_o say_v for_o the_o encouragement_n of_o the_o parliament_n and_o of_o the_o general_n and_o chief_a commander_n of_o the_o army_n in_o particular_a and_o of_o all_o the_o saint_n in_o

saint_n in_o england_n indeed_o if_o i_o shall_v declare_v any_o thing_n to_o you_o and_o tell_v you_o that_o i_o have_v it_o by_o vision_n or_o revelation_n and_o it_o be_v not_o apparent_a in_o

thessalonian_n now_o we_o beseech_v you_o by_o the_o come_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o by_o our_o gather_n unto_o he_o that_o you_o be_v not_o soon_o shake_v in_o mind_n nor_o be_v

that_o day_n shall_v not_o come_v except_o there_o come_v a_o fall_v away_o first_o etc._n etc._n so_o may_v i_o say_v you_o have_v reason_n to_o beware_v that_o you_o be_v not_o soon_o shake_v in_o

and_o let_v no_o man_n deceive_v you_o for_o you_o may_v be_v delude_v and_o deceive_v if_o you_o receive_v any_o thing_n from_o any_o which_o be_v not_o according_a to_o what_o be_v reveal_v in_o

before_o he_o have_v receive_v so_o may_v you_o if_o you_o shall_v so_o do_v therefore_o if_o a_o prophet_n or_o a_o apostle_n or_o a_o angel_n from_o heaven_n shall_v bring_v any_o message_n which_o be_v not_o consonant_a unto_o the_o word_n which_o you_o have_v already_o receive_v in_o the_o scripture_n you_o be_v not_o to_o be_v shake_v in_o mind_n nor_o to_o be_v trouble_v by_o it_o nor_o to_o
