that_o ever_o in_o the_o way_n of_o their_o preach_n pronounce_v so_o many_o blessing_n as_o christ_n do_v he_o begin_v blessing_n bless_a be_v the_o poor_a and_o bless_a be_v those_o that_o mourn_v and_o bless_a be_v those_o that_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n and_o bless_a be_v those_o that_o be_v persecute_v for_o my_o name_n sake_n bless_a be_v those_o that_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o keep_v it_o he_o take_v little_a child_n into_o his_o arm_n and_o bless_a they_o do_v but_o mark_v in_o all_o the_o gospel_n how_o frequent_a christ_n be_v in_o blessing_n never_o in_o curse_v more_o frequent_a in_o blessing_n than_o ever_o any_o preacher_n be_v in_o all_o his_o sermon_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o because_o this_o work_n of_o bless_v the_o people_n be_v a_o work_n wherein_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n our_o highpriest_n be_v much_o delight_v a_o work_n whereunto_o he_o be_v most_o in_o cline_v well_o but_o do_v he_o do_v it_o quest_n 4_o yes_o he_o do_v do_v

our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v bless_v we_o with_o all_o spiritual_a blessing_n in_o beavenly_a place_n in_o christ_n nor_o only_o meritorious_o but_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o christ_n and_o say_v he_o he_o have_v do_v it_o with_o all_o spiritual_a blessing_n and_o he_o have_v do_v it_o by_o jesus_n christ_n you_o will_v say_v we_o do_v see_v that_o man_n be_v thus_o blessed_v by_o christ_n oject_n oject_n for_o where_o christ_n bless_v he_o do_v not_o only_o wish_v well_o and_o good_a unto_o a_o wan_a but_o he_o bestow_v it_o yea_o he_o do_v not_o only_o bestow_v good_a but_o he_o do_v increase_v and_o multiply_v but_o upon_o this_o account_n how_o few_o be_v there_o in_o the_o world_n that_o be_v blessed_v by_o christ_n for_o answer_v answ_n 1_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n sometime_o unto_o a_o christian_a for_o to_o discern-this_a blessing_n of_o christ_n you_o can_v see_v the_o bough_n fruit_n body_n bark_n of_o the_o tree_n but_o if_o you_o will_v see_v the_o

and_o take_v pain_n for_o it_o this_o blessing_n of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v the_o root_n of_o all_o and_o if_o you_o will_v see_v this_o you_o must_v dig_v and_o take_v pain_n to_o see_v it_o it_o do_v not_o lie_v open_a to_o every_o one_o view_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n our_o highpriest_n do_v not_o bless_v as_o man_n bless_v and_o so_o his_o blessing_n be_v very_o much_o hide_v from_o our_o eye_n he_o do_v not_o bless_v as_o we_o do_v he_o do_v not_o bless_v as_o the_o world_n do_v if_o the_o world_n see_v a_o rich_a man_n it_o pronounce_v he_o bless_v oh_o there_o be_v a_o bless_a man_n and_o there_o be_v a_o happy_a man_n what_o a_o excellent_a dwelling_n have_v he_o how_o healthful_a his_o table_n be_v spread_v etc._n etc._n the_o world_n bless_v rich_a man_n pronounce_v they_o happy_a and_o bless_a but_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o do_v as_o jacob_n do_v when_o joseph_n bring_v his_o two_o son_n to_o jacob_n to_o be_v blessed_v by_o he_o he_o set_v ephraim_n the_o young_a at_o the_o left_a hand_n of_o jacob_n and_o he_o set_v manasses_n the_o elder_a at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o jacob_n that_o jacob_n may_v give_v the_o right-hand_a blessing_n to_o the_o elder_a and_o the_o left-hand_a blessing_n to_o the_o young_a but_o when_o joseph_n have_v set_v they_o thus_o before_o jacob_n jacob_n cross_v hand_n and_o he_o turn_v the_o right-hand_a blessing_n to_o the_o young_a so_o two_o man_n be_v bring_v before_o christ_n a_o rich_a man_n it_o may_v be_v and_o a_o poor_a man_n and_o in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n the_o rich_a man_n must_v carry_v the_o blessing_n oh_o but_o our_o lord_n christ_n he_o cross_v hand_n and_o he_o lay_v the_o blessing_n upon_o the_o young_a brother_n many_o time_n and_o so_o in_o regard_n of_o ordinance_n two_o sort_n of_o ordinance_n be_v bring_v before_o christ_n god_n ordinance_n and_o man_n ordinance_n and_o man_n ordinance_n in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n be_v the_o elder_a brother_n and_o god_n ordinance_n the_o young_a brother_n and_o both_o these_o be_v bring_v before_o christ_n for_o a_o blessing_n and_o the_o ordinance_n of_o man_n be_v set_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o christ_n by_o the_o world_n but_o the_o lord_n christ_n he_o cross_v hand_n and_o he_o lay_v the_o blessing_n upon_o the_o young_a brother_n in_o this_o respect_n and_o so_o two_o man_n be_v bring_v before_o he_o a_o proud_a pharisee_fw-mi and_o a_o poor_a brokenhearted_a sinner_n the_o pharisee_n come_v unto_o the_o right-hand_a of_o christ_n &_o think_v for_o to_o carry_v the_o blessing_n but_o the_o lord_n christ_n cross_n hand_n &_o lay_v the_o right-hand_a blessing_n upon_o the_o poor_a brokenhearted_a sinner_n and_o pass_v by_o the_o proud_a pharisee_fw-mi the_o lord_n christ_n do_v not_o bless_v as_o the_o world_n bless_v again_o as_o he_o do_v not_o bless_v as_o the_o world_n bless_v answ_n 2_o so_o he_o do_v not_o bless_v always_o as_o professor_n bless_v professor_n they_o do_v ordinary_o bless_v man_n according_a unto_o their_o outward_a privilege_n gospel_n and_o church-priviledge_n oh_o say_v the_o woman_n unto_o christ_n blessed_n be_v the_o

and_o keep_v it_o and_o do_v my_o commandment_n you_o bless_v according_a to_o outward_a privilege_n i_o do_v go_v that_o way_n of_o blessing_n say_v christ_n he_o do_v not_o bless_v as_o professor_n bless_v always_o three_o he_o do_v not_o bless_v as_o godly_a man_n do_v bless_v always_o answ_n 3_o as_o gracious_a man_n bless_v not_o always_o for_o you_o that_o be_v godly_a you_o pronounce_v such_o a_o man_n bless_v as_o have_v much_o grace_n and_o have_v assurance_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o one_o that_o have_v strong_a and_o great_a part_n and_o able_a to_o

do_v not_o always_o bless_v thus_o blessed_n be_v the_o poor_a in_o spirit_n say_v he_o bless_a be_v those_o that_o mourn_v he_o do_v say_v bless_a be_v those_o that_o rejoice_v or_o bless_a be_v those_o that_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o god_n love_n or_o bless_a be_v those_o that_o be_v strong_a in_o grace_n no_o but_o do_v thou_o know_v a_o poor_a weak_a christian_a a_o mourn_a soul_n like_o a_o dove_n of_o the_o valley_n say_v the_o lord_n i_o bless_v he_o thus_o i_o say_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n our_o great_a highpriest_n he_o do_v not_o bless_v as_o we_o bless_v he_o do_v not_o bless_v as_o the_o world_n bless_v he_o do_v not_o bless_v always_o as_o professor_n bless_v he_o do_v not_o bless_v always_o as_o godly_a man_n bless_v and_o therefore_o no_o wonder_n that_o his_o blessing_n be_v hide_v children_n when_o they_o be_v very_o young_a be_v often_o blessed_v by_o their_o parent_n and_o they_o do_v mind_n it_o or_o take_v notice_n of_o it_o child_n of_o two_o or_o three_o year_n old_a and_o so_o it_o be_v with_o many_o a_o gracious_a soul_n bless_v by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o do_v it_o take_v notice_n of_o their_o father_n blessing_n but_o the_o lord_n christ_n do_v always_o bless_v his_o people_n only_o there_o be_v several_a time_n special_a season_n that_o he_o give_v out_o his_o blessing_n let_v i_o tell_v you_o of_o those_o time_n a_o little_a that_o so_o you_o may_v come_v for_o his_o blessing_n while_o his_o hand_n be_v in_o as_o it_o be_v so_o that_o you_o may_v be_v crown_v with_o spiritual_a blessing_n in_o and_o from_o jesus_n

that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v my_o highpriest_n so_o as_o to_o have_v satisfy_v for_o i_o ah_o if_o i_o do_v but_o know_v that_o the_o lord_n jesus_fw-la christ_n be_v my_o highpriest_n in_o this_o

a_o outlet_a some_o breathe_a time_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o these_o temptation_n five_o and_o last_o as_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n live_v for_o ever_o to_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o so_o
