A30153	A holy life, the beauty of Christianity, or, An exhortation to Christians to be holy by John Bunyan.	Bunyan, John, 1628-1688.	1684 (1684)	Wing B5537; ESTC R30867	84,448	237

to_o be_v with_o we_o and_o in_o we_o here_o yea_o he_o must_v exhort_v we_o to_o that_o which_o he_o can_v not_o perform_v himself_o but_o such_o exhortation_n do_v not_o stand_v with_o the_o wisdom_n of_o a_o apostle_n wherefore_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a meaning_n in_o this_o exhortation_n from_o the_o which_o if_o we_o swerve_v we_o shall_v both_o wrong_v the_o apostle_n and_o ourselves_o let_v we_o inquire_v then_o what_o paul_n shall_v mean_v when_o he_o bid_v they_o that_o name_n the_o name_n of_o christ_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n and_o for_o our_o better_a understanding_n of_o he_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o there_o be_v a_o iniquity_n that_o be_v inherent_a in_o we_o and_o a_o iniquity_n that_o be_v apart_o and_o at_o a_o distance_n from_o we_o now_o if_o he_o mean_v as_o certain_o he_o do_v that_o they_o that_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n shall_v depart_v from_o that_o sin_n and_o iniquity_n that_o be_v in_o themselves_o then_o though_o he_o can_v mean_v that_o we_o shall_v separate_v that_o from_o our_o person_n for_o that_o be_v impossible_a yet_o he_o will_v have_v we_o take_v off_o and_o withdraw_v our_o mind_n and_o affection_n there_o from_o and_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o they_o that_o be_v christ_n do_v so_o and_o they_o that_o be_v christ_n have_v crucify_v the_o flesh_n with_o the_o affection_n and_o lust_n 5.24_o sinful_a lust_n and_o sinful_a motion_n our_o mind_n and_o affection_n shall_v depart_v from_o they_o there_o be_v the_o affection_n and_o lust_n of_o sin_n and_o there_o be_v the_o affection_n and_o lust_n or_o desire_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o again_o there_o be_v the_o affection_n and_o lust_n of_o the_o new_a man_n in_o saint_n now_o this_o be_v that_o that_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v to_o wit_n that_o the_o affection_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o soul_n shall_v not_o choose_v but_o depart_v from_o the_o affection_n &_o lust_n of_o our_o old_a man_n and_o shall_v be_v renew_v and_o make_v willing_a to_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n from_o they_o this_o i_o say_v say_v he_o 16._o walk_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o you_o shall_v not_o fulfil_v the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n wherefore_o when_o he_o say_v depart_v from_o iniquity_n if_o he_o mean_v from_o our_o own_o inherent_a iniquity_n than_o he_o mu●t_v mean_v thus_o take_v your_o mind_n and_o your_o affection_n off_o carry_v your_o mind_n away_o from_o they_o 3._o set_v your_o mind_n and_o affection_n upon_o other_o object_n and_o let_v your_o mind_n and_o affection_n be_v yield_v up_o to_o the_o conduct_n of_o the_o word_n and_o spirit_n of_o god_n let_v not_o sin_n therefore_o reign_v in_o your_o mortal_a body_n 6.12_o that_o you_o shall_v obey_v it_o in_o the_o lust_n thereof_o now_o a_o man_n in_o mind_n and_o affection_n may_v depart_v from_o that_o which_o yet_o will_v not_o depart_v from_o he_o yea_o a_o man_n in_o mind_n may_v depart_v from_o that_o which_o yet_o will_v dwell_v in_o he_o as_o long_o as_o he_o live_v for_o instance_n there_o be_v many_o disease_n that_o cleave_v to_o man_n from_o which_o in_o their_o mind_n they_o willing_o depart_v yea_o their_o great_a disquietment_n be_v that_o so_o bad_a a_o distemper_n will_v abide_v by_o they_o and_o may_v they_o but_o have_v their_o desire_n accomplish_v they_o will_v be_v as_o far_o there_o from_o as_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v asunder_o and_o while_o they_o be_v find_v to_o continue_v together_o the_o mind_n depart_v therefrom_o and_o be_v go_v either_o to_o god_n or_o to_o physician_n for_o help_v and_o deliverance_n from_o it_o and_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o the_o saint_n and_o shall_v be_v with_o every_o one_o that_o by_o way_n of_o profession_n name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n 7._o he_o shall_v depart_v from_o his_o indwelling_a sin_n with_o his_o mind_n with_o his_o mind_n he_o shall_v serve_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o this_o be_v a_o excellent_a thing_n to_o do_v and_o can_v be_v do_v by_o none_o but_o such_o as_o be_v possess_v with_o a_o excellent_a spirit_n ah_o to_o find_v a_o man_n that_o real_o depart_v from_o himself_o and_o that_o draw_v the_o affection_n of_o the_o soul_n from_o the_o affection_n and_o lust_n of_o his_o flesh_n be_v a_o rare_a thing_n 11.21_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o most_o of_o professor_n go_v after_o the_o heart_n of_o their_o detestable_a lust_n and_o after_o their_o inward_a abomination_n 6.8_o but_o such_o shall_v of_o the_o flesh_n reap_v corruption_n notwithstanding_o they_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ._n sin_n be_v sweet_a to_o he_o that_o be_v nothing_o but_o flesh_n 20.12_o or_o that_o can_v savour_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v of_o the_o flesh_n nor_o can_v it_o be_v that_o he_o that_o be_v such_o shall_v depart_v from_o himself_o his_o sweet_a self_n 8_o no_o they_o that_o be_v after_o the_o flesh_n do_v mind_n the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n wherefore_o they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o flesh_n though_o they_o profess_v religion_n and_o name_n the_o name_n of_o christ_n can_v please_v god_n for_o such_o instead_o of_o walk_v in_o and_o after_o the_o spirit_n have_v put_v the_o stumble_a block_n of_o their_o iniquity_n before_o their_o face_n 8._o to_o hinder_v their_o depart_n therefrom_o nor_o will_v all_o their_o inquire_v of_o god_n nor_o their_o seek_v and_o pray_v to_o he_o keep_v they_o from_o stumble_v and_o fall_v and_o spliting_a themselves_o in_o sunder_o upon_o the_o rock_n and_o ruin_n that_o be_v provide_v for_o they_o 14.16_o as_o a_o reward_n of_o the_o evil_a of_o their_o do_n yea_o they_o shall_v suck_v the_o poison_n of_o asp_n and_o the_o viper_n tongue_n shall_v slay_v they_o notwithstanding_o all_o their_o profession_n quest._n but_o some_o may_v say_v how_o shall_v i_o know_v that_o i_o do_v depart_v from_o the_o iniquity_n of_o my_o flesh_n from_o the_o iniquity_n that_o be_v in_o i_o answ._n i_o shall_v answer_v this_o question_n brief_o thus_o 1._o how_o be_v iniquity_n in_o thy_o eye_n when_o sever_v from_o the_o guilt_n and_o punishment_n that_o attend_v it_o be_v it_o as_o sepeparate_v from_o these_o beauteous_a or_o ill-favoured_a i_o ask_v thou_o how_o it_o look_v and_o how_o thou_o like_v it_o suppose_v there_o be_v no_o guilt_n or_o punishment_n to_o attend_v thy_o love_n to_o or_o commission_n of_o it_o for_o if_o in_o its_o own_o nature_n it_o be_v desirable_a to_o thy_o mind_n and_o only_o therefore_o shun_v for_o fear_v of_o the_o punishment_n that_o attend_v the_o commission_n of_o it_o without_o doubt_n thou_o be_v none_o of_o they_o that_o do_v depart_v from_o it_o all_o that_o thou_o do_v be_v thou_o shun_v the_o sin_n not_o of_o abhorrence_n of_o the_o sin_n but_o for_o fear_n of_o the_o punishment_n that_o attend_v it_o like_o the_o thief_n that_o yet_o refuse_v to_o take_v away_o his_o neighbour_n horse_n not_o of_o hatred_n of_o theft_n but_o for_o fear_n of_o the_o gallow_n 2._o how_o do_v thou_o like_o thyself_o as_o consider_v possess_v with_o a_o body_n of_o sin_n and_o as_o feel_n and_o find_v that_o sin_n work_v in_o thy_o member_n do_v this_o yield_v thou_o inward_a pleasedness_n of_o mind_n and_o a_o kind_n of_o secret_a sweetness_n or_o how_o for_o to_o be_v sure_a where_o a_o sanctify_a mind_n be_v 6.12_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o odious_a in_o itself_o nor_o that_o make_v a_o man_n so_o in_o his_o own_o eye_n as_o do_v this_o sight_n the_o sight_n of_o sin_n in_o he_o of_o the_o work_n of_o lust_n in_o he_o it_o be_v this_o that_o make_v the_o good_a man_n ashamed_a that_o make_v he_o blush_v and_o that_o make_v he_o abhor_v himself_o 3._o how_o look_v thy_o duty_n in_o thy_o eye_n i_o mean_v thy_o duty_n which_o thou_o do_v in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n i_o say_v how_o look_v the_o best_a of_o these_o the_o most_o warm_a and_o spiritual_a of_o these_o since_o not_o one_o of_o they_o can_v be_v perform_v but_o they_o do_v catch_v the_o stain_n of_o sin_n as_o come_v from_o thou_o or_o be_v thou_o through_o the_o ignorance_n that_o be_v in_o thou_o as_o unacquainted_a with_o these_o thing_n 4._o why_o will_v thou_o go_v to_o heaven_n be_v it_o because_o thou_o will_v be_v save_v from_o hell_n or_o because_o thou_o will_v be_v free_v from_o sin_n i_o say_v will_v thou_o go_v to_o heaven_n because_o it_o be_v a_o place_n that_o be_v holy_a or_o because_o it_o be_v a_o place_n remote_a from_o the_o pain_n of_o hell_n i_o ask_v again_o wherein_o do_v thou_o think_v the_o blessedness_n of_o heaven_n consist_v be_v it_o in_o the_o holiness_n that_o be_v there_o or_o in_o the_o freedom_n that_o be_v there_o from_o hell_n there_o be_v not_o a_o man_n alive_a but_o will_v go_v to_o heaven_n that_o he_o may_v be_v save_v

their_o profession_n of_o faith_n in_o he_o a_o holy_a and_o bless_a conversation_n have_v thus_o brief_o show_v you_o these_o thing_n i_o shall_v come_v in_o the_o next_o place_n to_o show_v you_o why_o some_o that_o as_o to_o word_n right_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n do_v not_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n reason_n that_o it_o be_v incident_a to_o man_n to_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n religious_o and_o not_o to_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n i_o have_v prove_v already_o and_o now_o i_o must_v show_v you_o why_o it_o be_v so_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v of_o three_o sort_n first_o some_o profess_v he_o reason_n yet_o have_v not_o save_v faith_n in_o he_o nor_o yet_o receive_v grace_n from_o he_o that_o some_o profess_v he_o that_o have_v not_o say_v in_o he_o nor_o receive_v grace_n from_o he_o i_o will_v make_v appear_v first_o and_o then_o that_o they_o do_v not_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n shall_v be_v show_v afterward_o that_o the_o first_o be_v true_a consider_v christ_n say_v to_o his_o disciple_n there_o be_v some_o of_o you_o that_o believe_v not_o 6.46_o and_o again_o for_o jesus_n know_v from_o the_o beginning_n who_o they_o be_v that_o believe_v not_o and_o who_o shall_v betray_v he_o now_o if_o they_o believe_v not_o they_o have_v none_o of_o his_o grace_n in_o they_o for_o faith_n be_v the_o first_o and_o head_n grace_n the_o beginning_n and_o lead_v grace_n he_o therefore_o that_o be_v destitute_a of_o that_o be_v empty_a of_o all_o the_o rest_n beside_o other_o scripture_n also_o confirm_v this_o truth_n james_n call_v some_o of_o the_o professor_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v in_o his_o day_n 2.20_o vain_a or_o empty_a man_n that_o be_v man_n void_a of_o grace_n and_o the_o apostle_n suggest_v in_o the_o very_a word_n below_o the_o text_n that_o as_o in_o god_n house_n there_o be_v golden_a and_o silver_n saint_n 2.20_o so_o their_o be_v also_o earthy_a and_o wooden_a one_o for_o in_o a_o great_a house_n as_o god_n be_v be_v not_o only_a vessel_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n but_o also_o of_o wood_n and_o of_o earth_n 22.23_o and_o some_o to_o honour_n and_o some_o to_o dishonour_v that_o be_v some_o for_o heaven_n and_o some_o for_o hell_n now_o they_o be_v these_o wooden_a and_o earthy_a professor_n that_o he_o aim_v at_o in_o the_o text_n to_o wit_n that_o they_o shall_v depart_v from_o iniquity_n or_o else_o their_o profession_n will_v do_v they_o no_o good_a and_o these_o also_o that_o he_o despair_v of_o in_o the_o next_o word_n say_v but_o but_o in_o this_o great_a house_n of_o god_n there_o will_v not_o only_o be_v golden_a and_o silver_n christian_n but_o wooden_a and_o earthly_a one_o and_o if_o any_o man_n purge_v himself_o from_o these_o from_o these_o man_n company_n and_o from_o these_o man_n vice_n he_o shall_v be_v a_o vessel_n to_o honour_v sanctify_v and_o meet_v for_o the_o master_n use_n and_o prepare_v to_o every_o good_a work_n from_o all_o which_o it_o be_v gather_v that_o there_o be_v some_o that_o name_n the_o name_n of_o christ_n in_o a_o way_n of_o profession_n that_o have_v neither_o faith_n nor_o grace_n in_o they_o and_o so_o consequent_o that_o do_v not_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n for_o first_o these_o want_n that_o principle_n that_o holy_a and_o bless_a principle_n that_o shall_v induce_v they_o thereunto_o to_o wit_n the_o great_a and_o principal_a grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o they_o be_v four_o first_o as_o i_o have_v say_v they_o want_v faith_n that_o heart_n purify_n grace_n for_o the_o heart_n be_v purify_v by_o faith_n 15.9_o i_o have_v show_v you_o already_o that_o depart_n from_o iniquity_n must_v be_v with_o the_o mind_n and_o affection_n or_o with_o the_o heart_n but_o how_o can_v that_o be_v where_o the_o heart_n be_v not_o sanctify_v and_o make_v holy_a for_o a_o unsanctified_a mind_n can_v depart_v from_o iniquity_n no_o more_o than_o the_o ethiopian_a can_v change_v his_o skin_n 13.23_o but_o nothing_o can_v purify_v the_o heart_n but_o faith_n therefore_o nothing_o can_v make_v a_o professor_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n where_o faith_n be_v want_v so_o then_o when_o man_n profess_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n without_o have_v holy_a faith_n in_o he_o they_o still_o abide_v by_o their_o iniquity_n they_o depart_v not_o from_o their_o iniquity_n but_o rather_o make_v of_o their_o profession_n a_o cloak_n for_o their_o iniquity_n for_o their_o malice_n 2.16_o and_o for_o their_o covetousness_n and_o the_o like_a it_o be_v not_o profession_n but_o faith_n that_o bring_v god_n and_o the_o soul_n together_o and_o as_o long_o as_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n be_v at_o distance_n what_o ever_o profession_n be_v make_v there_o be_v not_o a_o depart_a not_o a_o heart_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n wherefore_o to_o these_o professor_n james_n write_v thus_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n and_o he_o will_v draw_v nigh_o to_o you_o 4.8_o cleanse_v your_o hand_n you_o sinner_n and_o purify_v your_o heart_n you_o double_v mind_v man_n far_o from_o god_n can_v think_v reverent_o of_o he_o nor_o so_o speak_v and_o profess_v he_o as_o stand_v with_o the_o nature_n of_o gospel_n religion_n wherefore_o god_n say_v draw_v near_o hither_o that_o be_v by_o faith_n and_o again_o 40.1_o let_v they_o come_v near_o then_o let_v they_o speak_v then_o let_v they_o profess_v 11.6_o without_o faith_n a_o man_n can_v please_v god_n because_o he_o can_v without_o it_o stand_v before_o he_o in_o the_o spotless_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n nor_o yet_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n and_o live_v a_o holy_a life_n there_o be_v three_o thing_n in_o faith_n that_o direct_o tend_v to_o make_v a_o man_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n 1._o it_o apprehend_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o be_v and_o greatness_n of_o god_n and_o so_o it_o aw_v the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n 2._o it_o apprehend_v the_o love_n of_o this_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o so_o it_o conquer_v and_o overcome_v the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n 3._o it_o apprehend_v the_o sweetness_n and_o blessedness_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o godhead_n and_o thence_o persuade_v the_o soul_n to_o desire_v here_o communion_n with_o he_o that_o it_o may_v be_v holy_a and_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o he_o when_o this_o world_n be_v end_v that_o it_o may_v be_v happy_a in_o and_o by_o he_o for_o ever_o but_o without_o faith_n these_o thing_n can_v be_v apprehend_v and_o therefore_o those_o that_o want_v it_o whatever_o their_o profession_n be_v they_o will_v not_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n second_o repentance_n be_v another_o of_o the_o great_a and_o principal_a grace_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n work_v in_o the_o heart_n wherefore_o without_o this_o also_o there_o can_v be_v no_o depart_n from_o iniquity_n it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o expect_v it_o of_o any_o man_n let_v his_o profession_n be_v never_o so_o stately_a and_o great_a if_o he_o be_v a_o stranger_n to_o find_v repentance_n how_o many_o be_v there_o in_o our_o day_n since_o the_o gospel_n be_v grow_v so_o common_a that_o catch_v up_o a_o notion_n of_o good_a thing_n and_o from_o that_o notion_n make_v a_o profession_n of_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n get_v into_o church_n and_o obtain_v the_o title_n of_o a_o brother_n a_o saint_n a_o member_n of_o a_o gospel_n congregation_n that_o have_v clean_o escape_v repentance_n i_o say_v

repentance_n shall_v be_v 16.6_o and_o be_v one_o of_o the_o first_o step_n into_o true_a gospel_n profession_n but_o some_o know_v nothing_o of_o it_o until_o they_o come_v to_o the_o end_n of_o
