do_v thou_o trouble_v i_o that_o be_v wherefore_o be_v thou_o so_o restless_a with_o i_o that_o thou_o will_v have_v no_o denial_n till_o i_o grant_v thou_o thy_o desire_n so_o than_o if_o you_o

you_o spirit_n must_v do_v the_o action_n of_o the_o new_a man_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v galat._n 5._o 16._o walk_v in_o the_o spirit_n now_o here_o by_o the_o spirit_n be_v not_o mean_v the_o holy_a 16._o ghost_n but_o the_o regenerate_a part_n of_o man_n that_o be_v the_o new_a man_n who_o action_n be_v the_o duty_n of_o holiness_n as_o prayer_n hear_v the_o word_n receive_v the_o sacrament_n work_n of_o charity_n either_o to_o the_o church_n in_o general_a or_o to_o any_o particular_a member_n of_o it_o and_o there_o must_v not_o only_o be_v a_o bare_a perform_v of_o

holy_a duty_n may_v be_v perform_v but_o on_o the_o contrary_a when_o we_o grow_v remiss_a in_o prayer_n or_o in_o any_o other_o duty_n the_o devil_n take_v a_o occasion_n by_o this_o to_o force_v we_o to_o some_o sin_n hereupon_o we_o present_o yield_v because_o we_o want_v strength_n of_o grace_n which_o by_o the_o neglect_n of_o that_o duty_n we_o be_v weak_a in_o we_o know_v some_o physic_n be_v for_o restore_v as_o simile_n well_o as_o for_o weaken_v thereby_o to_o preserve_v the_o ftrength_n of_o the_o body_n now_o this_o walk_n in_o the_o action_n of_o the_o new_a man_n be_v to_o preserve_v the_o strength_n of_o the_o soul_n it_o preserve_v spiritual_a life_n in_o a_o man_n it_o enable_v he_o to_o fight_v against_o corruption_n and_o lust_n for_o what_o be_v that_o which_o weaken_v the_o soul_n but_o the_o action_n of_o the_o old_a man_n therefore_o if_o you_o will_v mortify_v your_o lust_n you_o must_v walk_v in_o the_o spirit_n the_o five_o mean_n if_o you_o will_v mortify_v your_o lust_n be_v this_o you_o must_v get_v faith_n so_o say_v the_o apostle_n faith_n act_v 15._o 9_o faith_n purify_v the_o heart_n that_o be_v 9_o it_o slay_v the_o corruption_n of_o

in_o a_o regenerate_a man_n be_v wonderful_a for_o first_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v the_o holy_a regenerate_a ghost_n come_v and_o enlighten_v the_o mind_n than_o it_o work_v faith_n and_o then_o

will_v say_v how_o can_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n dwell_v in_o the_o heart_n see_v he_o 2._o be_v in_o heaven_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o the_o heart_n 2._o as_o the_o sun_n in_o a_o house_n now_o we_o know_v that_o the_o proper_a heart_n place_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v in_o the_o firmament_n yet_o we_o say_v the_o sun_n be_v in_o the_o house_n not_o that_o we_o mean_v simile_n that_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v there_o but_o the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v there_o in_o the_o house_n so_o we_o say_v that_o the_o proper_a place_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v in_o heaven_n and_o when_o we_o say_v he_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o regenerate_a man_n we_o do_v not_o mean_v essential_o but_o by_o a_o divine_a power_n and_o nature_n that_o be_v by_o send_v his_o spirit_n into_o the_o heart_n not_o only_o to_o work_v grace_n in_o the_o heart_n but_o to_o dwell_v therein_o now_o when_o the_o spirit_n have_v take_v possession_n of_o the_o heart_n it_o draw_v and_o expel_v away_o all_o the_o darkness_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o make_v it_o to_o look_v and_o to_o see_v christ_n in_o a_o more_o excellent_a manner_n than_o before_o assure_v he_o of_o perfect_a justification_n and_o remission_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o here_o the_o error_n of_o many_o be_v meet_v withal_o in_o the_o confute_v matter_n of_o mortification_n they_o will_v have_v mortification_n first_o wrought_v and_o then_o they_o will_v lay_v hold_n upon_o christ_n for_o remission_n of_o sin_n oh_o say_v they_o if_o i_o can_v but_o find_v this_o sin_n or_o that_o sin_n mortify_v than_o i_o will_v lay_v hold_n upon_o christ_n than_o i_o will_v believe_v for_o alas_o how_o can_v i_o look_v for_o remission_n of_o sin_n how_o dare_v i_o lie_v hold_v or_o how_o can_v i_o lie_v hold_v upon_o christ_n when_o i_o find_v that_o my_o corruption_n have_v such_o hold_v on_o i_o but_o these_o be_v deceive_v for_o this_o be_v contrary_n to_o the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o first_o faith_n assure_v of_o pardon_n and_o then_o follow_v mortification_n that_o be_v when_o a_o man_n be_v once_o assure_v of_o pardon_n of_o sin_n than_o he_o begin_v to_o mortify_v and_o to_o slay_v his_o corruption_n for_o mortification_n be_v a_o fruit_n of_o faith_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v phil._n 3._o 10._o that_o i_o may_v feel_v the_o power_n of_o his_o death_n and_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o resurrection_n now_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o this_o but_o the_o two_o part_n of_o repentance_n mortification_n and_o vivification_n the_o apostle_n believe_v before_o and_o now_o he_o will_v have_v his_o faith_n appear_v in_o the_o grace_n of_o mortification_n that_o he_o may_v sensible_o feel_v it_o and_o therefore_o if_o you_o will_v have_v your_o sin_n mortify_v you_o must_v by_o faith_n draw_v christ_n into_o your_o heart_n the_o six_o mean_n if_o you_o will_v have_v your_o sin_n joy._n mortify_v be_v to_o get_v spiritual_a joy_n but_o this_o may_v seem_v a_o strange_a thing_n to_o mortify_v corruption_n by_o a_o man_n or_o a_o woman_n will_v rather_o think_v that_o this_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o increase_v sin_n but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o for_o spiritual_a joy_n be_v a_o special_a mean_n to_o mortifiesin_n if_o we_o do_v but_o consider_v the_o nature_n of_o mortification_n for_o as_o i_o say_v before_o what_o be_v mortification_n but_o a_o turn_n of_o the_o heart_n a_o work_n in_o it_o a_o new_a disposition_n now_o we_o know_v when_o the_o heart_n be_v not_o regenerate_v it_o be_v full_a of_o sorrow_n and_o joy_n in_o this_o estate_n increase_v sin_n but_o when_o the_o heart_n be_v turn_v from_o sin_n to_o grace_n that_o be_v heavenly_a dispose_v there_o be_v a_o pleasant_a object_n represent_v unto_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o soul_n as_o christ_n justification_n remission_n of_o sin_n and_o reconciliation_n and_o hence_o arise_v a_o spiritual_a joy_n in_o the_o soul_n which_o rejoice_v be_v a_o mortification_n of_o sin_n for_o when_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n see_v such_o excellency_n in_o christ_n as_o before_o he_o so_o rejoice_v in_o they_o that_o he_o loathe_v whatsoever_o be_v contrary_a to_o they_o as_o a_o man_n that_o have_v get_v a_o fair_a inheritance_n which_o former_o be_v content_a with_o a_o small_a cottage_n but_o now_o the_o simile_n right_n that_o he_o have_v to_o the_o other_o make_v he_o despise_v that_o so_o it_o be_v with_o a_o regenerate_a man_n this_o spiritual_a joy_n make_v he_o base_o to_o esteem_v

request_n among_o we_o the_o three_o mean_n if_o you_o will_v have_v your_o sin_n spirit_n mortify_v be_v to_o labour_v to_o get_v the_o assistance_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o this_o must_v of_o

now_o as_o there_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o get_v the_o spirit_n so_o also_o lose_v there_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o hinder_v the_o spirit_n so_o that_o the_o spirit_n may_v be_v win_v or_o lose_v either_o by_o the_o do_n or_o the_o not_o do_v of_o thesethreething_n first_o if_o thou_o will_v have_v the_o spirit_n than_o thou_o 1_o must_v know_v the_o spirit_n that_o be_v so_o to_o know_v he_o as_o to_o

to_o know_v the_o spirit_n that_o you_o may_v give_v he_o the_o glory_n of_o every_o grace_n second_o if_o thou_o will_v have_v the_o spirit_n then_o 2_o take_v heed_n that_o thou_o neither_o resist_v

when_o he_o grieve_v commit_v anything_o that_o make_v the_o spirit_n to_o loathe_v the_o soul_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v grieve_v not_o the_o spirit_n ephes._n 4._o 30._o that_o be_v

therefore_o three_o sort_n of_o affection_n natural_a affection_n carnal_a and_o spiritual_a first_o natural_a these_o affection_n arise_v from_o nature_n and_o tend_v to_o natural_a object_n as_o for_o example_n to_o desire_v meat_n and_o drink_n be_v natural_a but_o to_o desire_v it_o in_o excess_n be_v not_o natural_a because_o the_o object_n of_o natural_a affection_n be_v limit_v by_o

with_o beast_n second_o there_o be_v carnal_a affection_n which_o be_v lust_n that_o arise_v from_o the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n and_o those_o tend_v to_o evil_a object_n or_o good_a object_n in_o a_o evil_a manner_n those_o affection_n make_v we_o worse_o than_o the_o beast_n like_v unto_o the_o devil_n joh._n 8._o 44._o you_o be_v of_o your_o father_n the_o devil_n and_o his_o lust_n you_o

he_o that_o be_v they_o come_v in_o a_o degree_n to_o the_o corruption_n the_o devil_n have_v in_o a_o great_a degree_n three_o spiritual_a affection_n be_v such_o as_o arise_v from_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v from_o the_o renew_n part_n of_o man_n and_o tend_v to_o good_a object_n in_o a_o holy_a manner_n natural_a make_v we_o no_o better_o than_o beast_n carnal_a than_o devil_n spiritual_a make_v we_o better_o than_o man_n like_v to_o god_n have_v his_o image_n new_o stamp_v on_o we_o they_o lift_v we_o up_o above_o man_n and_o make_v we_o like_a to_o angel_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o 3._o kind_n of_o affection_n in_o man_n we_o must_v only_o answer_v one_o question_n before_o we_o go_v any_o further_o the_o question_n be_v this_o whether_o there_o be_v no_o spiritual_a affection_n except_o they_o proceed_v from_o a_o general_a disposition_n because_o many_o man_n seem_v to_o have_v good_a flash_n now_o and_o then_o and_o so_o seem_v to_o be_v regenerate_v i_o answer_v no_o they_o be_v not_o spiritual_a regenerate_v affection_n because_o these_o affection_n in_o the_o soul_n howsoever_o they_o be_v good_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o author_n the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o put_v they_o in_o be_v not_o so_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o subject_n man_n who_o be_v yet_o in_o corruption_n and_o not_o renew_v if_o a_o man_n have_v never_o so_o much_o skill_n in_o music_n if_o the_o instrument_n be_v out_o of_o tune_n the_o music_n can_v be_v good_a so_o the_o affection_n as_o the_o spirit_n suggestion_n be_v good_a but_o in_o a_o carnal_a man_n they_o be_v as_o in_o a_o instrument_n out_o of_o tune_n it_o be_v true_a that_o those_o flash_n make_v way_n to_o conversion_n but_o only_o when_o the_o heart_n be_v in_o tune_n and_o in_o a_o good_a frame_n then_o be_v the_o affection_n good_a that_o be_v then_o only_o effective_o good_a so_o as_o to_o make_v the_o heart_n good_a and_o then_o the_o fruit_n will_v be_v good_a such_o as_o god_n will_v accept_v so_o much_o

than_o he_o can_v do_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o regenerate_a man_n be_v able_a to_o do_v more_o than_o he_o can_v do_v in_o these_o two_o particular_n 1._o first_o he_o be_v able_a to_o

all_o earthly_a member_n be_v to_o be_v mortify_v doctr._n for_o the_o better_a explain_v of_o this_o point_n we_o will_v first_o speak_v of_o the_o general_a and_o then_o of_o the_o particular_n but_o first_o of_o all_o because_o the_o word_n be_v hard_a we_o will_v show_v you_o by_o way_n of_o explanation_n first_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o member_n and_o second_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o earthly_a member_n for_o the_o first_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o member_n by_o member_n member_n be_v mean_v sin_n or_o any_o foul_a affection_n of_o the_o heart_n when_o the_o heart_n be_v set_v upon_o a_o wrong_a object_n or_o else_o upon_o a_o good_a object_n yet_o exceed_v either_o in_o the_o manner_n or_o the_o measure_n make_v it_o a_o sin_n as_o first_o when_o a_o man_n heart_n be_v set_v upon_o a_o base_a object_n as_o the_o satisfy_n of_o his_o eye_n according_a to_o the_o lust_n of_o his_o heart_n or_o set_v upon_o his_o pleasure_n inordinate_o to_o the_o satisfy_n of_o his_o lust_n now_o these_o be_v base_a object_n again_o there_o be_v other_o object_n which_o in_o themselves_o be_v good_a and_o may_v be_v use_v as_o care_v of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n a_o man_n may_v lawful_o care_v for_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o life_n that_o have_v a_o charge_n or_o a_o man_n may_v use_v his_o pleasure_n for_o recreation_n or_o may_v seek_v after_o his_o profit_n thereby_o to_o provide_v for_o his_o family_n but_o if_o the_o care_n for_o the_o world_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n exceed_v either_o in_o the_o manner_n or_o the_o measure_n that_o be_v if_o they_o be_v get_v unlawful_o and_o if_o the_o heart_n lust_n after_o they_o if_o they_o breed_v a_o disorder_n in_o the_o soul_n and_o a_o neglect_n of_o grace_n than_o they_o become_v sin_n now_o they_o be_v call_v member_n for_o these_o reason_n member_n the_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o these_o base_a affection_n fill_v up_o the_o heart_n that_o be_v they_o make_v the_o heart_n fit_a for_o all_o 1_o manner_n of_o sin_n even_o as_o the_o member_n of_o the_o body_n make_v the_o body_n fit_a for_o action_n now_o we_o know_v that_o the_o body_n be_v not_o perfect_a if_o the_o member_n be_v not_o perfect_a so_o when_o the_o heart_n be_v not_o fill_v with_o these_o member_n it_o may_v be_v fit_a for_o sin_n but_o not_o for_o every_o sin_n but_o this_o fill_n of_o it_o make_v it_o fit_a for_o all_o sin_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v 2_o pet._n 1._o 3_o according_a to_o his_o divine_a power_n he_o have_v give_v we_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v by_o

by_o these_o base_a affection_n even_o as_o the_o body_n be_v make_v up_o and_o complete_a by_o its_o member_n second_o they_o be_v call_v member_n because_o these_o 2._o base_a affection_n do_v the_o

thence_o they_o send_v base_a affection_n into_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o faculty_n three_o they_o be_v call_v member_n because_o they_o be_v weapon_n of_o unrighteousness_n for_o so_o the_o

now_o we_o know_v that_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o one_o member_n to_o fight_v for_o the_o good_a of_o another_o as_o we_o see_v one_o member_n will_v suffer_v itself_o to_o be_v

cut_v off_o and_o separate_v from_o the_o body_n for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o rest_n and_o so_o it_o be_v in_o like_a manner_n with_o these_o for_o all_o will_v join_v together_o for_o the_o

the_o action_n of_o the_o old_a man_n and_o to_o fulfil_v every_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n four_o they_o be_v call_v member_n because_o they_o be_v as_o dear_a unto_o the_o heart_n as_o any_o
