when_o he_o seem_v to_o be_v most_o serene_a and_o quiet_a but_o now_o when_o we_o come_v to_o be_v at_o peace_n wih_o god_n there_o be_v a_o bless_a calm_n come_v into_o the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n

follow_v our_o peace_n or_o our_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n that_o be_v a_o four_o particular_a the_o five_o consequence_n 5._o there_o be_v likewise_o this_o fruit_n of_o it_o hence_o the_o soul_n come_v to_o have_v free_a access_n into_o god_n presence_n with_o boldness_n indeed_o when_o i_o look_v upon_o god_n as_o a_o enemy_n unto_o i_o and_o upon_o myself_o as_o a_o enemy_n unto_o god_n how_o can_v i_o come_v into_o god_n presence_n with_o boldness_n but_o be_v reconcile_v i_o come_v to_o have_v access_n to_o god_n adam_n can_v not_o stand_v in_o god_n presence_n when_o once_o

the_o truth_n be_v there_o be_v no_o free_a trade_n make_v between_o heaven_n and_o we_o till_o peace_n be_v make_v we_o can_v trade_v to_o heaven_n and_o fetch_v commodity_n from_o thence_o we_o may_v speak_v to_o heaven_n and_o cry_v and_o say_v our_o prayer_n as_o the_o phrase_n be_v but_o to_o fetch_v from_o thence_o the_o rich_a commodity_n that_o be_v in_o that_o country_n we_o can_v till_o there_o be_v a_o peace_n conclude_v indeed_o a_o gracious_a heart_n that_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n never_o send_v up_o a_o prayer_n unto_o god_n but_o he_o do_v as_o a_o rich_a man_n that_o send_v a_o ship_n to_o the_o indies_n nay_o it_o be_v far_o more_o &_o better_o for_o you_o may_v loose_v your_o ship_n and_o your_o adventure_n that_o you_o send_v may_v miscarry_v but_o when_o a_o

we_o come_v to_o enjoy_v all_o the_o good_a we_o have_v in_o this_o world_n as_o upon_o a_o new_a right_n it_o be_v settle_v upon_o we_o and_o come_v

that_o that_o be_v the_o best_a way_n to_o convey_v true_a save_v grace_n unto_o they_o a_o spirit_n of_o life_n into_o they_o it_o be_v by_o this_o mean_n rather_o than_o by_o other_o the_o lord_n choose_v this_o way_n rather_o than_o other_o you_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n say_v paul_n to_o the_o galatian_n and_o how_o have_v you_o receive_v it_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o law_n or_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o way_n be_v the_o conveyance_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n to_o you_o be_v it_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o law_n or_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n not_o by_o the_o one_o but_o by_o the_o other_o though_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o use_n of_o preach_v the_o law_n yet_o that_o which_o do_v convey_v the_o spirit_n and_o grace_n into_o the_o conscience_n it_o be_v the_o open_v the_o riches_n of_o the_o treasure_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o the_o gospel_n therefore_o this_o objection_n have_v no_o strength_n in_o it_o to_o say_v we_o have_v no_o power_n in_o ourselves_o god_n do_v entreat_v and_o beseech_v because_o by_o this_o mean_v he_o put_v forth_o a_o power_n into_o the_o heart_n of_o those_o he_o do_v intend_v to_o save_v everlasting_o if_o we_o shall_v entreat_v dead_a man_n to_o rise_v it_o be_v a_o folly_n for_o we_o because_o we_o can_v convey_v any_o power_n into_o they_o but_o it_o be_v not_o in_o vain_a for_o god_n because_o he_o be_v able_a while_o he_o be_v entreat_v and_o beseech_v to_o convey_v a_o power_n into_o they_o obj._n but_o you_o say_v in_o the_o second_o place_n what_o need_v the_o lord_n do_v all_o this_o god_n may_v work_v it_o by_o a_o word_n from_o himself_o god_n may_v present_o show_v forth_o his_o almighty_a power_n to_o bring_v in_o sinner_n to_o himself_o he_o need_v not_o stand_v pray_v and_o entreat_v and_o answer_v objection_n bring_v of_o argument_n and_o the_o like_a because_o he_o can_v by_o his_o almighty_a power_n bring_v in_o sinner_n he_o can_v break_v the_o stout_a heart_n that_o live_v upon_o the_o earth_n and_o pull_v down_o the_o proud_a spirit_n and_o therefore_o what_o need_n god_n do_v all_o this_o ans_fw-fr i_o answer_v who_o a●t_v thou_o o_o man_n that_o reason_v against_o god_n but_o if_o you_o will_v have_v reason_n there_o be_v many_o to_o be_v give_v first_o because_o god_n have_v to_o work_v with_o a_o rational_a creature_n he_o will_v work_v suitable_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o that_o creature_n that_o he_o be_v work_v upon_o if_o god_n be_v to_o work_v mere_o upon_o stone_n to_o raise_v out_o of_o the_o stone_n child_n unto_o abraham_n than_o god_n will_v but_o only_o speak_v the_o word_n and_o say_v let_v it_o be_v do_v &_o it_o shall_v be_v do_v but_o the_o lord_n love_v to_o do_v it_o in_o a_o way_n sutiable_a to_o a_o rational_a creature_n now_o that_o way_n be_v this_o first_o that_o the_o understanding_n shall_v be_v enlighten_v and_o the_o heart_n shall_v be_v gain_v and_o wrought_v upon_o they_o know_v what_o it_o do_v it_o shall_v come_v to_o do_v what_o it_o do_v free_o and_o wil_o though_o we_o have_v no_o free_a will_n at_o the_o first_o yet_o when_o we_o do_v embrace_v the_o gospel_n than_o the_o lord_n do_v cause_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n to_o embrace_v it_o wil_o and_o this_o be_v a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o god_n to_o show_v himself_o to_o his_o creature_n he_o will_v work_v his_o own_o work_n but_o such_o a_o way_n as_o shall_v be_v suitable_a to_o his_o creature_n again_o if_o the_o lord_n shall_v bring_v in_o sinner_n to_o himself_o by_o his_o almighty_a power_n then_o there_o will_v not_o so_o much_o of_o the_o beauty_n and_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n appear_v as_o there_o do_v this_o way_n if_o god_n shall_v effectual_o work_v it_o by_o his_o own_o hand_n i_o say_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o grace_n will_v not_o so_o glorious_o shine_v forth_o now_o it_o be_v the_o special_a design_n that_o god_n have_v in_o all_o his_o work_n about_o redemption_n that_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n may_v appear_v to_o man_n and_o angel_n that_o they_o may_v magnify_v it_o now_o what_o can_v be_v more_o to_o magnify_v grace_n then_o when_o a_o sinner_n shall_v come_v to_o vieu_o the_o several_a working_n of_o god_n mercy_n towards_o he_o how_o the_o lord_n have_v provide_v a_o way_n of_o reconciliation_n and_o that_o though_o the_o soul_n be_v backward_o and_o hang_v of_o yet_o the_o lord_n still_o follow_v on_o and_o put_v on_o the_o soul_n and_o will_v not_o suffer_v the_o soul_n to_o die_v and_o perish_v in_o the_o sin_n of_o it_o what_o will_v magnify_v grace_n more_o than_o this_o the_o way_n of_o bring_v in_o sinner_n to_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o himself_o will_v be_v a_o principal_a subject_n for_o the_o saint_n to_o be_v blessing_n of_o god_n to_o all_o eternity_n and_o therefore_o you_o christian_n that_o have_v find_v the_o work_n of_o god_n bring_v in_o your_o heart_n to_o himself_o observe_v what_o god_n work_v be_v mark_v the_o several_a way_n of_o god_n work_v with_o your_o soul_n for_o know_v that_o those_o several_a way_n of_o god_n work_v with_o your_o soul_n now_o will_v be_v the_o subject_n of_o your_o eternal_a praise_n in_o heaven_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o god_n do_v go_v on_o in_o such_o several_a expression_n that_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n may_v appear_v the_o more_o full_o yea_o and_o further_o that_o by_o this_o mean_v he_o may_v gain_v the_o heart_n of_o sinner_n everlasting_o to_o himself_o there_o be_v nothing_o will_v gain_v they_o so_o unto_o god_n as_o this_o declaration_n of_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o when_o the_o sinner_n shall_v see_v not_o only_o that_o god_n be_v reconcile_v but_o how_o god_n have_v set_v his_o heart_n upon_o it_o how_o earnest_a god_n have_v be_v in_o it_o this_o will_v engage_v the_o heart_n of_o a_o sinner_n for_o ever_o unto_o god_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o those_o sinner_n that_o have_v feel_v most_o of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n bring_v they_o in_o to_o be_v reconcile_v be_v those_o that_o keep_v close_a unto_o god_n as_o for_o such_o as_o be_v only_o stop_v in_o the_o way_n of_o their_o sin_n by_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o law_n and_o be_v not_o acquaint_v with_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o the_o gospel_n they_o seldom_o hold_v out_o though_o for_o a_o while_n out_o of_o slavery_n to_o their_o conscience_n they_o do_v not_o commit_v such_o and_o such_o sin_n this_o i_o make_v no_o question_n one_o may_v be_v bring_v to_o do_v that_o have_v no_o true_a save_a grace_n that_o they_o may_v not_o dare_v to_o commit_v a_o sin_n in_o secret_a for_o a_o while_n mere_o our_o of_o terror_n of_o conscience_n but_o now_o these_o man_n they_o be_v only_o wrought_v upon_o by_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o law_n they_o seldom_o hold_v out_o but_o though_o conscience_n bear_v a_o strong_a hand_n to_o keep_v they_o from_o sin_n for_o a_o long_a time_n yet_o at_o length_n they_o break_v those_o bond_n but_o now_o those_o that_o have_v not_o only_a conscience_n enlighten_v and_o do_v not_o see_v the_o danger_n of_o sin_n only_o but_o come_v to_o have_v these_o beam_n of_o the_o grace_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n let_v out_o into_o their_o heart_n and_o their_o heart_n be_v so_o gain_v unto_o god_n by_o this_o that_o they_o will_v never_o depart_v from_o he_o but_o their_o heart_n will_v follow_v to_o the_o bountifulness_n of_o god_n the_o difference_n of_o these_o two_o may_v be_v express_v by_o this_o similitude_n look_v how_o it_o be_v in_o frosty_a wether_n when_o the_o water_n be_v freeze_v there_o be_v two_o way_n to_o come_v by_o the_o water_n the_o husbandman_n go_v in_o the_o morning_n and_o see_v the_o water_n freeze_v and_o beat_v it_o to_o piece_n and_o break_v the_o ice_n but_o though_o he_o do_v so_o the_o next_o morning_n he_o come_v and_o see_v it_o freeze_v as_o much_o as_o before_o but_o when_o there_o come_v warm_a weather_n and_o dissolve_v the_o ice_n than_o it_o quite_o go_v away_o in_o flake_n so_o hence_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o sinner_n be_v freeze_v and_o god_n come_v with_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o law_n and_o beat_v they_o in_o piece_n and_o break_v they_o that_o way_n i_o but_o at_o last_o they_o freeze_v again_o and_o grow_v as_o hard_o again_o as_o ever_o but_o now_o when_o the_o lord_n come_v with_o the_o beam_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o shine_v upon_o they_o then_o their_o heart_n thaw_v and_o the_o ice_n go_v away_o and_o their_o heart_n come_v in_o flow_v to_o god_n in_o another_o manner_n than_o
