of_o god_n second_o when_o i_o come_v to_o confess_v my_o sin_n to_o judge_v myself_o for_o my_o sin_n there_o must_v be_v a_o inward_a disposition_n suitable_a to_o such_o a_o confession_n o_o how_o

that_o thou_o make_v to_o god_n in_o prayer_n if_o god_n shall_v present_v to_o we_o all_o our_o profession_n that_o we_o have_v make_v to_o he_o in_o prayer_n and_o tell_v we_o how_o we_o have_v

upon_o he_o and_o if_o god_n shall_v cast_v i_o away_o yet_o he_o shall_v cast_v i_o away_o call_v upon_o he_o as_o the_o poor_a woman_n of_o canaan_n when_o christ_n call_v her_o dog_n and_o

from_o the_o thought_n and_o apprehension_n of_o all_o excellency_n in_o ourselves_o we_o must_v not_o come_v in_o the_o pride_n of_o our_o heart_n because_o we_o have_v ability_n more_o than_o

be_v natural_a in_o any_o of_o our_o duty_n be_v nothing_o to_o god_n only_o that_o which_o be_v from_o his_o own_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o thou_o shall_v come_v in_o thy_o own_o thought_n as_o

to_o god_n may_v be_v a_o thousand_o thousand_o time_n more_o acceptable_a to_o god_n than_o thou_o that_o be_v able_a to_o make_v great_a oration_n when_o thou_o come_v before_o he_o 3_o thou_o

though_o at_o the_o last_o hour_n this_o now_o be_v a_o humble_a heart_n in_o prayer_n and_o when_o we_o come_v with_o such_o a_o poverty_n of_o spirit_n as_o this_o be_v we_o may_v expect_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v accept_v of_o we_o give_v this_o poor_a man_n somewhat_o will_v god_n say_v this_o poor_a man_n cry_v and_o the_o lord_n hear_v he_o in_o the_o seven_o place_n we_o must_v bring_v that_o which_o be_v god_n own_o in_o sanctify_a god_n name_v i_o speak_v to_o this_o before_o in_o the_o point_n of_o preparation_n viz._n that_o in_o god_n worship_n we_o must_v give_v he_o his_o own_o i_o will_v only_o mention_v it_o here_o in_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_v in_o two_o regard_n 1_o first_o to_o give_v god_n his_o own_o for_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o 2_o second_o to_o give_v god_n his_o own_o that_o be_v what_o come_v from_o the_o work_n of_o his_o own_o spirit_n or_o else_o we_o do_v not_o sanctify_v god_n name_n i_o will_v give_v you_o one_o text_n further_o about_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o in_o exod._n 39_o if_o you_o read_v the_o chapter_n you_o shall_v find_v that_o there_o be_v ten_o time_n say_v that_o they_o do_v as_o god_n have_v command_v moses_n and_o then_o in_o the_o close_a of_o the_o chapter_n when_o they_o have_v do_v as_o god_n have_v command_v in_o his_o worship_n the_o text_n say_v moses_n bless_v they_o that_o people_n be_v a_o bless_a people_n that_o do_v observe_v the_o worship_n of_o god_n as_o god_n have_v command_v they_o but_o the_o main_a thing_n be_v all_o that_o we_o do_v it_o must_v act_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o have_v true_a silver_n and_o gold_n but_o it_o must_v have_v the_o right_a stamp_n or_o else_o it_o can_v go_v for_o current_a coin_n and_o so_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o offer_v to_o god_n in_o his_o worship_n be_v god_n own_o be_v what_o we_o have_v warrant_n for_o out_o of_o god_n word_n but_o it_o must_v have_v the_o stamp_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n there_o be_v two_o question_n that_o he_o will_v ask_v first_o who_o require_v this_o at_o your_o hand_n but_o then_o if_o you_o can_v answer_v thus_o thou_o o_o lord_n do_v require_v it_o it_o be_v well_o but_o then_o god_n have_v another_o question_n who_o image_n and_o superscription_n be_v this_o if_o thou_o can_v not_o give_v a_o answer_n to_o that_o it_o will_v be_v reject_v too_o thou_o must_v be_v act_v by_o divine_a principle_n in_o all_o that_o thou_o do_v there_o must_v be_v the_o stamp_n of_o the_o spirit_n upon_o that_o which_o be_v tender_v to_o god_n else_o it_o be_v nothing_o to_o open_v this_o point_n full_o will_v ask_v some_o time_n first_o therefore_o i_o will_v show_v you_o how_o we_o may_v know_v when_o our_o duty_n be_v act_v by_o our_o natural_a part_n rather_o than_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n second_o how_o we_o may_v know_v whether_o our_o duty_n be_v act_v by_o natural_a conscience_n rather_o than_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n 1_o first_o if_o thou_o be_v act_v by_o natural_a part_n they_o will_v not_o change_v thy_o heart_n man_n that_o do_v perform_v duty_n by_o the_o strength_n of_o natural_a part_n they_o may_v be_v as_o large_a as_o other_o and_o speak_v to_o the_o edification_n of_o other_o but_o those_o duty_n do_v never_o change_v their_o heart_n now_o if_o thou_o be_v actd_a by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n thou_o will_v be_v change_v into_o the_o very_a image_n of_o his_o spirit_n 2_o second_o if_o man_n be_v act_v by_o natural_a part_n they_o will_v not_o carry_v they_o through_o difficulty_n and_o discouragement_n but_o now_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n if_o thou_o have_v act_v by_o he_o though_o thou_o do_v meet_v with_o never_o such_o difficulty_n and_o discouragement_n thou_o will_v be_v carry_v through_o they_o all_o 3_o thou_o may_v know_v it_o by_o this_o wherein_o do_v thou_o account_v the_o excellency_n of_o a_o duty_n to_o consist_v either_o in_o thyself_o or_o other_o thou_o perform_v a_o duty_n now_o it_o may_v be_v thy_o part_n do_v act_v very_o lively_a and_o to_o thy_o credit_n and_o yet_o thy_o conscience_n tell_v thou_o that_o thy_o heart_n be_v streighten_v now_o can_v thou_o rise_v up_o with_o joy_n because_o thou_o have_v thy_o end_n at_o another_o time_n perhaps_o thy_o heart_n be_v more_o trouble_v and_o break_v but_o thou_o do_v not_o express_v thyself_o so_o much_o than_o thou_o be_v discourage_v and_o when_o thou_o see_v another_o perform_v a_o duty_n if_o thou_o see_v but_o any_o fail_n in_o their_o expression_n thou_o pitche_v upon_o that_o and_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o poor_a thing_n thou_o be_v not_o able_a to_o see_v a_o excellency_n in_o holy_a duty_n except_o there_o be_v a_o excellency_n of_o natural_a part_n but_o those_o that_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n they_o can_v find_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n act_v in_o other_o though_o they_o have_v not_o such_o natural_a part_n 4_o those_o that_o be_v act_v by_o their_o natural_a part_n in_o secret_a they_o be_v less_o enlarge_v than_o they_o be_v before_o other_o a_o great_a deal_n their_o part_n act_n much_o before_o other_o but_o what_o be_v there_o between_o god_n and_o their_o own_o soul_n 5_o they_o that_o be_v so_o act_v will_v not_o be_v very_o constant_a you_o shall_v have_v young_a one_o that_o begin_v to_o look_v towards_o religion_n their_o part_n be_v a_o little_a fresh_a and_o they_o be_v mighty_o enlarge_v in_o holy_a duty_n and_o the_o thing_n be_v good_a for_o they_o to_o make_v use_n of_o their_o part_n but_o how_o ordinary_a it_o be_v that_o after_o a_o few_o year_n they_o be_v
kingdom_n come_v they_o do_v as_o much_o as_o say_v o_o lord_n do_v thou_o set_v thyself_o against_o all_o the_o enemy_n of_o thy_o kingdom_n if_o they_o belong_v to_o thy_o election_n lord_n convert_v they_o but_o otherwise_o lord_n confound_v they_o now_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o we_o be_v to_o sanctife_n the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o prayer_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o prayer_n but_o now_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o prayer_n the_o most_o thing_n i_o confess_v be_v there_o first_o when_o we_o come_v to_o prayer_n we_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o pray_v with_o understanding_n 1_o cor._n 14.15_o what_o be_v it_o then_o i_o will_v pray_v with_o the_o ●●ir●●_n and_o will_v pray_v with_o understand_v also_o god_n do_v not_o love_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o fool_n we_o must_v not_o come_v babble_v to_o god_n in_o prayer_n to_o speak_v we_o know_v not_o what_o and_o to_o multiply_v word_n we_o know_v not_o wherefore_o but_o god_n do_v require_v that_o those_o that_o come_v to_o prayer_n come_v with_o understanding_n that_o they_o offer_v to_o god_n a_o rational_a a_o reasonable_a a_o understand_a sacrifice_n god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o he_o will_v be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n now_o as_o it_o belong_v to_o all_o other_o duty_n of_o worship_n so_o especial_o in_o prayer_n to_o know_v what_o we_o do_v when_o we_o pray_v not_o to_o think_v to_o put_v off_o god_n with_o a_o mere_a empty_a sound_n that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n the_o second_o thing_n in_o the_o manner_n of_o prayer_n it_o be_v the_o give_v up_o all_o the_o faculty_n of_o our_o soul_n in_o it_o i_o speak_v to_o that_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n in_o general_a we_o shall_v apply_v it_o now_o particular_o to_o prayer_n the_o give_v up_o not_o only_o our_o understanding_n but_o will_n thought_n affection_n strength_n in_o prayer_n in_o 2_o chron._n 20.3_o it_o be_v say_v of_o jehoshaphat_n that_o he_o set_v himself_o to_o seek_v the_o lord_n he_o do_v give_v his_o whole_a self_n to_o seek_v the_o lord_n we_o be_v to_o give_v our_o whole_a self_n and_o not_o to_o divide_v in_o prayer_n now_o there_o be_v a_o argument_n that_o indeed_o may_v well_o take_v up_o a_o whole_a sermon_n in_o show_v the_o evil_a of_o the_o wander_a of_o our_o spirit_n in_o prayer_n we_o shall_v take_v heed_n of_o the_o wander_a of_o our_o spirit_n in_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n and_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n and_o so_o in_o prayer_n the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v much_o trouble_v with_o the_o wander_a of_o their_o thought_n both_o in_o word_n and_o sacrament_n and_o it_o be_v their_o great_a burden_n and_o shall_v be_v so_o but_o i_o never_o hear_v any_o more_o complain_n of_o the_o wander_a of_o their_o spirit_n than_o in_o the_o time_n of_o prayer_n the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v much_o pester_v in_o their_o spirit_n with_o this_o evil_a it_o be_v very_o grievous_a unto_o they_o and_o many_o of_o they_o go_v under_o it_o as_o a_o grievous_a burden_n all_o their_o day_n the_o chief_a burden_n that_o be_v upon_o their_o spirit_n be_v their_o wander_a in_o prayer_n so_o that_o if_o god_n shall_v speak_v to_o they_o as_o he_o speak_v unto_o solomon_n and_o bid_v he_o ask_v what_o he_o shall_v give_v he_o i_o very_o believe_v there_o be_v many_o in_o this_o congregation_n that_o have_v already_o good_a assurance_n of_o god_n love_n in_o christ_n if_o they_o have_v not_o that_o that_o will_v be_v the_o main_a thing_n that_o they_o will_v ask_v but_o have_v attain_v that_o if_o god_n will_v speak_v from_o heaven_n and_o say_v what_o shall_v i_o give_v you_o for_o yourselves_o if_o he_o shall_v ask_v you_o in_o the_o general_n it_o may_v be_v you_o will_v ask_v something_o for_o the_o church_n but_o if_o it_o

than_o if_o god_n shall_v give_v they_o to_o be_v king_n or_o queen_n over_o the_o whole_a world_n if_o god_n shall_v put_v these_o two_o into_o the_o balance_n either_o the_o whole_a world_n to_o

that_o be_v wicked_a and_o vile_a that_o not_o only_o have_v vain_a wander_a thought_n in_o prayer_n but_o even_o in_o the_o very_a duty_n of_o prayer_n many_o time_n have_v wicked_a and_o ungodly_a

some_o blasphemous_a thought_n cast_v into_o they_o for_o the_o devil_n be_v never_o more_o busy_a than_o at_o the_o time_n of_o prayer_n but_o they_o rather_o come_v from_o the_o devil_n than_o from_o the_o stream_n and_o corruption_n of_o their_o own_o heart_n which_o may_v be_v we_o may_v make_v out_o more_o clear_o afterward_o but_o now_o i_o speak_v to_o such_o as_o have_v most_o

to_o offer_v our_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n unto_o god_n we_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n to_o offer_v it_o be_v the_o offering_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n and_o that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n because_o the_o creature_n come_v to_o bring_v a_o present_a to_o god_n therefore_o he_o be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o and_o second_o the_o soul_n be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o holy_a

mercy_n to_o his_o people_n i_o say_v when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o set_v ourselves_o before_o god_n in_o those_o way_n that_o god_n do_v use_v to_o communicate_v the_o

our_o outward_a business_n we_o have_v to_o do_v with_o god_n in_o they_o but_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o present_v ourselves_o before_o he_o in_o those_o thing_n that_o he_o do_v use_v to_o let_v out_o himself_o through_o in_o a_o more_o special_a and_o glorious_a manner_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o his_o people_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o heaven_n be_v say_v to_o

certain_o the_o essential_a presence_n of_o god_n be_v on_o earth_n as_o true_o and_o real_o as_o in_o heaven_n and_o god_n be_v not_o so_o as_o to_o have_v one_o part_n in_o one_o place_n and_o another_o in_o another_o but_o all_o god_n be_v in_o every_o place_n but_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o heaven_n it_o be_v because_o the_o lord_n make_v know_v himself_o there_o in_o a_o more_o glorious_a manner_n than_o in_o any_o other_o place_n and_o therefore_o heaven_n be_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n in_o a_o more_o special_a way_n now_o than_o if_o the_o communication_n of_o god_n unto_o a_o creature_n be_v enough_o to_o make_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n more_o special_a if_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v a_o creature_n to_o live_v with_o god_n and_o to_o be_v before_o his_o face_n because_o they_o be_v there_o where_o god_n do_v most_o communicate_v himself_o then_o certain_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o be_v near_o god_n and_o be_v with_o god_n because_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n be_v those_o mean_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v for_o the_o let_v out_o of_o himself_o in_o the_o glory_n of_o

because_o than_o we_o shall_v and_o if_o we_o worship_n god_n as_o we_o ought_v we_o do_v act_v our_o faith_n and_o humility_n and_o all_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n we_o do_v act_v they_o as_o

the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o you_o shall_v act_v they_o upon_o god_n when_o you_o be_v worship_v of_o he_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o come_v with_o grace_n when_o you_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n but_o there_o must_v be_v a_o act_n of_o that_o grace_n upon_o god_n and_o so_o we_o find_v in_o scripture_n that_o the_o act_n of_o grace_n upon_o god_n it_o be_v a_o draw_v

be_v from_o hence_o that_o their_o grace_n do_v not_o act_v so_o upon_o god_n as_o they_o ought_v she_o obey_v not_o the_o voice_n she_o receive_v not_o correction_n she_o trust_v not_o in_o the_o

this_o you_o be_v all_o convince_v of_o that_o it_o be_v your_o duty_n to_o worship_n god_n when_o you_o pray_v you_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n when_o you_o come_v to_o hear_v his_o word_n you_o

that_o be_v very_o observable_a and_o that_o be_v this_o where_o the_o heart_n
the_o least_o degree_n of_o grace_n the_o most_o glorious_a hypocrite_n in_o the_o world_n who_o it_o may_v be_v for_o the_o outward_a act_n do_v more_o than_o one_o that_o have_v true_a grace_n yet_o such_o a_o one_o do_v limit_v himself_o he_o do_v great_a thing_n but_o he_o do_v it_o so_o as_o he_o limit_n himself_o that_o be_v so_o much_o as_o may_v serve_v for_o such_o and_o such_o end_n of_o

and_o honour_n and_o as_o much_o peace_n of_o conscience_n with_o do_v less_o he_o will_v do_v less_o but_o now_o one_o that_o have_v grace_n though_o but_o little_a though_o but_o the_o least_o

what_o ever_o yet_o be_v do_v for_o god_n in_o the_o world_n and_o the_o more_o i_o do_v the_o more_o i_o do_v desire_n to_o do_v that_o be_v now_o a_o kind_n of_o infinitness_n that_o there_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n where_o grace_n come_v i_o say_v grace_n enlarge_v the_o heart_n to_o a_o kind_n of_o infinitness_n that_o the_o more_o it_o do_v the_o more_o it_o will_v do_v there_o be_v no_o

image_n of_o god_n indeed_o because_o grace_n do_v so_o enlarge_v the_o heart_n even_o to_o a_o infinitness_n as_o it_o be_v for_o god_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v in_o the_o general_n what_o it_o be_v to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n to_o tender_v up_o to_o god_n that_o which_o be_v some_o way_n suitable_a to_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o infinite_a god_n 2_o you_o know_v there_o be_v a_o second_o thing_n viz._n that_o then_o i_o do_v sanctify_v god_n name_n when_o i_o come_v so_o to_o worship_n god_n as_o my_o heart_n work_v and_o follow_v after_o god_n as_o a_o god_n so_o as_o it_o do_v beseem_v the_o soul_n of_o a_o creature_n to_o follow_v the_o infinite_a creator_n and_o to_o work_v after_o the_o infinite_a creator_n so_o david_n in_o psal_n 63.5_o my_o soul_n follow_v hard_a after_o thou_o o_o god_n and_o mark_n it_o be_v a_o very_a sweet_a scripture_n thy_o right_a hand_n uphold_v i_o those_o who_o heart_n follow_v hard_a after_o the_o lord_n they_o have_v the_o right-hand_n of_o god_n uphold_v of_o they_o it_o be_v a_o mighty_a encouragement_n to_o put_v forth_o the_o heart_n to_o the_o uttermost_a because_o when_o thou_o do_v so_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n uphold_v thou_o so_o that_o thy_o heart_n must_v follow_v after_o god_n more_o than_o it_o follow_v after_o any_o creature_n 3_o when_o i_o come_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n i_o come_v to_o present_v myself_o for_o the_o communication_n of_o the_o choice_a of_o his_o mercy_n so_o than_o i_o sanctify_v god_n name_n when_o i_o labour_v to_o prepare_v and_o open_v my_o heart_n for_o god_n as_o for_o the_o choice_a mercy_n that_o god_n have_v to_o bestow_v upon_o his_o creature_n when_o there_o be_v such_o a_o temper_n of_o heart_n that_o my_o conscience_n tell_v i_o it_o be_v suitable_a to_o that_o that_o be_v fit_a for_o a_o soul_n to_o have_v that_o expect_v to_o receive_v the_o choice_a mercy_n from_o god_n but_o that_o we_o speak_v too_o more_o in_o the_o open_n of_o our_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n now_o we_o be_v to_o come_v more_o particular_o to_o this_o to_o open_v the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_n 1_o first_o in_o what_o particular_n the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o heart_n may_v be_v discover_v to_o be_v suitable_a to_o god_n in_o respect_n of_o god_n greatness_n and_o glory_n 2_o second_o what_o the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o heart_n shall_v be_v as_o suitable_a to_o the_o several_a attribute_n of_o god_n it_o will_v cost_v we_o some_o time_n to_o open_v the_o particular_a thing_n in_o the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o heart_n as_o in_o reference_n to_o the_o greatness_n and_o majesty_n of_o god_n consider_v more_o general_o as_o in_o psalm_n 48.1_o great_a be_v the_o lord_n and_o great_o to_o be_v praise_v and_o so_o in_o mal._n 1.14_o curse_a be_v the_o deceiver_n which_o have_v in_o his_o flock_n a_o male_a and_o vow_v and_o sacrifice_v unto_o the_o lord_n a_o corrupt_a thing_n why_o for_o i_o be_o a_o great_a king_n say_v the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o curse_a be_v he_o that_o do_v not_o offer_v a_o sacrifice_n suitable_a to_o my_o greatness_n and_o in_o 2_o chron._n 2.5_o we_o find_v that_o solomen_n when_o he_o be_v prepare_v for_o the_o temple_n he_o will_v build_v a_o great_a temple_n why_o because_o god_n be_v a_o great_a god_n that_o he_o will_v build_v it_o too_o so_o that_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n must_v be_v some_o great_a thing_n because_o the_o lord_n be_v a_o great_a god_n and_o it_o must_v be_v suitable_a to_o his_o greatness_n now_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o in_o what_o particular_n do_v the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o soul_n consist_v that_o be_v very_o suitable_a to_o the_o greatness_n of_o god_n in_o the_o general_a there_o be_v many_o thing_n in_o this_o 1_o the_o first_o be_v you_o must_v be_v careful_a to_o bring_v a_o sanctify_a heart_n you_o can_v tender_v up_o a_o worship_n suitable_a to_o his_o greatness_n except_o you_o bring_v a_o sanctify_a heart_n with_o you_o there_o must_v be_v holiness_n in_o the_o heart_n under_o the_o law_n you_o know_v if_o any_o one_o come_v to_o offer_v a_o sacrifice_n in_o his_o uncleanness_n he_o must_v be_v cut_v off_o and_o so_o it_o must_v be_v here_o we_o must_v look_v to_o it_o that_o we_o offer_v not_o to_o god_n in_o our_o uncleanness_n wash_v you_o and_o make_v you_o clean_o in_o isa_n 1._o and_o then_o come_v let_v we_o reason_n together_o there_o be_v no_o come_n to_o god_n without_o wash_v and_o make_v clean_o in_o psal_n 93.5_o holiness_n become_v thy_o house_n o_o lord_n for_o ever_o holiness_n become_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n for_o ever_o we_o must_v look_v to_o get_v a_o sanctify_a heart_n sanctification_n consist_v in_o those_o two_o part_n mortification_n and_o vivification_n there_o must_v be_v a_o mortify_n of_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o heart_n we_o read_v in_o the_o law_n that_o every_o sacrifice_n be_v to_o be_v salt_v with_o salt_n that_o do_v signify_v the_o mortification_n of_o our_o heart_n when_o we_o come_v to_o offer_v up_o ourselves_o as_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n the_o salt_n do_v eat_v out_o the_o raw_a humour_n and_o keep_v the_o flesh_n from_o putrify_v so_o do_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o mortify_v our_o lust_n in_o heb._n 9.14_o you_o have_v a_o notable_a scripture_n for_o the_o cleanse_n of_o our_o heart_n when_o we_o come_v to_o offer_v any_o service_n to_o god_n how_o much_o more_o shall_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n who_o through_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n offer_v himself_o without_o spot_n to_o god_n purge_v your_o conscience_n from_o dead_a work_n to_o serve_v the_o live_a god_n so_o that_o you_o can_v serve_v the_o live_a god_n until_o your_o conscience_n be_v purge_v from_o dead_a work_n and_o how_o come_v your_o conscience_n to_o be_v purge_v from_o dead_a work_n it_o be_v through_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n who_o through_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n offer_v himself_o without_o spot_n to_o god_n he_o must_v purge_v your_o conscience_n so_o that_o here_o be_v

which_o we_o all_o be_v for_o the_o whole_a world_n do_v lie_v in_o filth_n as_o a_o carrion_n do_v lie_v in_o his_o slime_n now_o if_o we_o will_v worship_v god_n so_o as_o to_o sanctify_v he_o we_o must_v apply_v christ_n to_o our_o soul_n and_o get_v our_o conscience_n purge_v from_o dead_a work_n and_o to_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n in_o we_o to_o quicken_v up_o our_o heart_n in_o the_o way_n of_o holiness_n to_o have_v the_o image_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o we_o whereby_o we_o may_v be_v holy_a according_a to_o our_o proportion_n even_o as_o he_o himself_o be_v holy_a this_o be_v the_o sanctify_a of_o the_o heart_n there_o must_v be_v a_o habitual_a sanctification_n and_o a_o actual_a sanctification_n of_o the_o heart_n a_o habitual_a that_o be_v that_o the_o heart_n must_v be_v change_v through_o the_o work_n of_o regeneration_n there_o must_v be_v a_o regeneration_n in_o the_o heart_n there_o must_v be_v divine_a principle_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o heart_n but_o you_o will_v say_v may_v not_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n pray_v to_o that_o i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v his_o duty_n to_o pray_v pour_v forth_o thy_o wrath_n upon_o the_o heathen_a and_o upon_o the_o family_n that_o call_v not_o upon_o thy_o name_n but_o it_o be_v as_o true_a that_o they_o can_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o do_v of_o it_o but_o if_o we_o will_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o it_o there_o must_v be_v a_o habitual_a holiness_n in_o the_o heart_n for_o every_o thing_n do_v act_n according_a to_o its_o principle_n in_o nature_n it_o be_v so_o and_o so_o do_v the_o heart_n when_o it_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n it_o do_v act_n according_a to_o the_o principle_n that_o it_o have_v and_o then_o there_o must_v not_o only_o be_v habitual_a sanctification_n but_o actual_a sanctification_n likewise_o as_o in_o exod._n 19.10.11_o there_o you_o see_v what_o ado_n there_o be_v to_o fit_v they_o for_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o law_n because_o god_n be_v to_o come_v among_o they_o god_n be_v to_o come_v among_o we_o and_o we_o be_v to_o come_v to_o god_n when_o we_o be_v to_o perform_v holy_a duty_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o have_v grace_n but_o there_o must_v be_v a_o improve_n of_o grace_n there_o must_v be_v a_o act_n of_o grace_n not_o only_a when_o you_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o

that_o know_v all_o thing_n know_v there_o be_v nothing_o that_o thou_o do_v reveal_v to_o be_v contrary_a to_o thy_o will_n but_o my_o heart_n be_v against_o it_o that_o be_v the_o least_o the_o

that_o god_n reveal_v to_o be_v his_o mind_n you_o know_v when_o a_o man_n of_o quality_n come_v to_o your_o house_n what_o a_o deal_n of_o stir_n there_o be_v not_o only_o in_o sweep_v but_o in_o

sanctify_a of_o the_o heart_n be_v 1_o first_o because_o the_o lord_n do_v first_o accept_v of_o the_o person_n before_o he_o do_v accept_v of_o the_o action_n man_n indeed_o do_v accept_v of_o the_o person_n of_o man_n because_o they_o do_v good_a action_n but_o god_n accept_v of_o the_o action_n of_o man_n because_o their_o person_n be_v good_a if_o indeed_o we_o see_v a_o man_n do_v good_a than_o we_o love_v he_o and_o accept_v of_o the_o person_n of_o the_o man_n but_o god_n first_o will_v accept_v of_o the_o person_n before_o the_o action_n as_o the_o lord_n acept_v of_o abel_n first_o and_o then_o he_o accept_v his_o offering_n so_o you_o must_v look_v to_o that_o to_o have_v your_o person_n first_o accept_v of_o god_n before_o any_o duty_n can_v be_v accept_v you_o think_v though_o you_o be_v wicked_a and_o sinful_a yet_o if_o you_o amend_v your_o life_n god_n will_v accept_v of_o you_o you_o go_v that_o way_n to_o work_v but_o certain_o that_o be_v the_o wrong_a way_n you_o must_v first_o look_v after_o mean_n of_o acception_n of_o your_o person_n which_o be_v through_o the_o righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o through_o the_o sanctification_n ot_fw-mi his_o spirit_n whereby_o you_o come_v to_o have_v his_o image_n and_o life_n and_o so_o be_v accept_v and_o then_o all_o that_o proceed_v from_o you_o come_v to_o be_v accept_v there_o be_v not_o any_o action_n which_o come_v from_o you_o that_o come_v to_o be_v accept_v to_o eternal_a life_n until_o your_o person_n be_v accept_v before_o god_n and_o therefore_o there_o must_v be_v a_o sanctify_a of_o the_o heart_n before_o there_o can_v be_v a_o sanctify_a the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n therefore_o when_o you_o come_v to_o perform_v any_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n you_o shall_v consider_v this_o be_v my_o heart_n sanctify_v i_o must_v sanctify_v god_n name_n and_o how_o can_v i_o do_v that_o except_o my_o heart_n be_v sanctify_v 2_o second_o our_o heart_n must_v be_v sanctify_v because_o the_o lord_n do_v look_v more_o to_o the_o principle_n from_o whence_o a_o thing_n come_v than_o at_o the_o thing_n itself_o as_o indeed_o be_v our_o heart_n right_a as_o they_o shall_v then_o all_o the_o good_a thing_n that_o come_v to_o we_o we_o will_v not_o so_o much_o regard_v what_o the_o thing_n be_v that_o we_o do_v enjoy_v from_o god_n as_o what_o the_o principle_n be_v from_o whence_o they_o come_v that_o be_v whether_o what_o we_o do_v enjoy_v from_o god_n be_v from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n or_o no_o whether_o it_o be_v from_o the_o general_a bounty_n and_o patience_n of_o god_n or_o from_o the_o special_a love_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n our_o heart_n will_v regard_v that_o most_o if_o we_o be_v spiritual_a now_o then_o look_v as_o a_o godly_a man_n be_v not_o satisfy_v with_o enjoy_v any_o good_a thing_n from_o god_n except_o he_o know_v it_o come_v from_o a_o principle_n of_o love_n to_o he_o in_o jesus_n christ_n so_o god_n be_v not_o please_v with_o any_o thing_n that_o come_v from_o we_o except_o he_o know_v that_o it_o come_v from_o a_o principle_n of_o love_n grace_n and_o holiness_n in_o our_o heart_n 3_o three_o according_a as_o the_o heart_n be_v so_o will_v the_o service_n be_v certain_o if_o the_o heart_n be_v unclean_a the_o duty_n will_v be_v unclean_a perhaps_o the_o word_n may_v be_v fine_a and_o brave_a but_o if_o there_o be_v a_o unclean_a heart_n the_o duty_n will_v be_v unclean_a as_o it_o be_v with_o a_o man_n that_o have_v the_o plague_n suppose_v he_o make_v a_o brave_a oration_n yet_o his_o breath_n be_v infectious_a so_o it_o be_v in_o our_o service_n with_o god_n if_o so_o be_v that_o our_o heart_n within_o we_o have_v the_o plague_n then_o certain_o the_o breath_n that_o come_v from_o we_o all_o our_o duty_n will_v be_v unclean_a and_o therefore_o that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n that_o we_o be_v to_o look_v for_o in_o the_o sanctify_a god_n name_v in_o holy_a duty_n look_v to_o have_v thy_o heart_n sanctify_v and_o consider_v from_o what_o principle_n it_o come_v it_o be_v for_o want_n of_o this_o that_o thousand_o of_o our_o duty_n be_v cast_v aside_o and_o god_n never_o do_v regard_v they_o but_o this_o be_v the_o first_o particular_a there_o be_v many_o more_o to_o speak_v of_o sermon_n v._n leviticus_n 10.3_o i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o they_o that_o come_v nigh_o i_o we_o proceed_v the_o next_o thing_n therefore_o for_o the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o sanctify_a god_n name_v in_o

man_n love_v holy_a duty_n though_o he_o find_v no_o present_a good_a come_v in_o by_o they_o because_o they_o be_v such_o thing_n as_o god_n require_v and_o therefore_o though_o i_o get_v nothing_o by_o they_o yet_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o carry_v i_o on_o and_o to_o carry_v i_o on_o ready_o and_o willing_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n those_o that_o can_v delight_v in_o god_n worship_n even_o at_o that_o time_n though_o they_o find_v nothing_o come_v in_o to_o themselves_o but_o now_o when_o we_o find_v not_o that_o come_n in_o that_o we_o do_v desire_n we_o begin_v to_o be_v

prayer_n and_o so_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n too_o it_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o emblem_n of_o prayer_n the_o offer_v up_o of_o our_o prayer_n be_v the_o offer_v up_o of_o incense_n to_o god_n and_o the_o mercy_n seat_v it_o be_v a_o type_n of_o jesus_n christ_n now_o the_o incense_n shall_v cover_v the_o mercy_n seat_n so_o our_o prayer_n must_v go_v up_o to_o jesus_n christ_n must_v be_v upon_o he_o and_o so_o must_v be_v accept_v by_o the_o father_n and_o as_o we_o read_v in_o judg._n 13.20_o when_o manoah_n offer_v a_o sacrifice_n the_o text_n say_v that_o the_o angel_n of_o the_o lord_n ascend_v in_o the_o flame_n this_o angel_n of_o god_n here_o be_v jesus_n christ_n as_o we_o may_v ea●●ly_v from_o this_o scripture_n make_v it_o out_o and_o he_o ascend_v up_o in_o the_o flame_n from_o the_o altar_n now_o though_o we_o do_v not_o offer_v such_o kind_n of_o sacrifice_n with_o fire_n and_o incense_n as_o they_o do_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n yet_o when_o we_o be_v

that_o great_a errand_n of_o he_o to_o reconcile_v the_o world_n to_o himself_o he_o must_v ascend_v up_o in_o the_o flame_n and_o so_o god_n will_v account_v his_o name_n to_o be_v sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n be_v not_o sanctify_v but_o through_o jesus_n christ_n the_o act_n of_o our_o faith_n upon_o christ_n as_o mediator_n be_v a_o special_a ingredient_n to_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n

such_o kind_n of_o thing_n every_o one_o that_o have_v any_o enlighten_v of_o conscience_n will_v think_v of_o at_o some_o time_n or_o other_o but_o people_n do_v least_o think_v of_o this_o which_o

a_o god_n as_o we_o be_v now_o worship_v now_o then_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o the_o scrip_n ure_n say_v of_o god_n and_o then_o let_v we_o see_v what_o suitable_a disposition_n we_o shall_v have_v in_o we_o unto_o those_o thing_n that_o the_o scripture_n say_v of_o god_n 1_o first_o you_o know_v the_o scripture_n say_v that_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n in_o joh_n 4.24_o then_o present_o

he_o be_v a_o infinite_a and_o glorious_a spirit_n well_o then_o sure_o bodily_a worship_n be_v not_o sufficient_a for_o i_o though_o i_o do_v kneel_v down_o in_o prayer_n or_o do_v come_v and_o

communion_n and_o have_v not_o sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o it_o that_o god_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v in_o this_o ordinance_n that_o be_v clear_a enough_o but_o now_o the_o great_a work_n be_v which_o be_v the_o three_o thing_n which_o i_o promise_v to_o show_v how_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o this_o ordinance_n certain_o the_o name_n of_o god_n have_v be_v much_o take_v in_o vain_a there_o have_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o pollution_n in_o the_o use_n of_o this_o ordinance_n and_o in_o man_n spirit_n when_o they_o have_v be_v exercise_v themselves_o in_o such_o a_o holy_a ordinance_n as_o this_o be_v therefore_o i_o will_v open_v this_o to_o you_o and_o shall_v not_o be_v very_o large_a in_o it_o only_o to_o show_v you_o the_o main_a and_o principal_a thing_n that_o may_v serve_v for_o the_o direction_n of_o we_o that_o the_o name_n of_o god_n may_v not_o be_v so_o take_v in_o vain_a and_o dishonour_v as_o heretofore_o and_o i_o shall_v cast_v what_o i_o intend_v to_o speak_v of_o into_o these_o particular_n 1_o that_o whosoever_o be_v to_o partake_v of_o this_o must_v be_v holy_a himself_o none_o can_v sanctify_v god_n but_o he_o must_v have_v a_o sanctify_a heart_n himself_o second_o this_o ordinance_n it_o must_v be_v receive_v in_o a_o holy_a communion_n there_o must_v be_v a_o communion_n of_o saint_n for_o this_o ordinance_n and_o it_o can_v be_v receive_v any_o where_o else_o but_o in_o a_o communion_n of_o saint_n three_o the_o holy_a disposition_n of_o soul_n particular_o or_o the_o qualification_n of_o soul_n that_o be_v require_v for_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_n in_o this_o ordinance_n four_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o explicit_a go_n out_o of_o the_o soul_n that_o there_o be_v to_o be_v at_o that_o very_a time_n of_o receive_v fif●hly_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o christ_n in_o our_o receive_n these_o thing_n be_v require_v for_o the_o sanctify_a of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o this_o ordinance_n for_o the_o first_o those_o that_o come_v must_v be_v holy_a themselves_o this_o be_v a_o ordinance_n not_o appoint_v for_o conversion_n to_o make_v holy_a other_o that_o be_v not_o convert_v may_v come_v to_o the_o word_n because_o the_o word_n it_o be_v appoint_v to_o work_v conversion_n it_o be_v appoint_v to_o work_v grace_n to_o work_v the_o first_o grace_n faith_n come_v by_o hear_v but_o we_o do_v not_o find_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n that_o this_o be_v appoint_v for_o conversion_n but_o it_o suppose_v conversion_n none_o be_v to_o come_v to_o receive_v this_o sacrament_n but_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o before_o be_v convert_v by_o the_o word_n the_o word_n first_o therefore_o be_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o man_n for_o their_o conversion_n and_o then_o this_o be_v a_o ordinance_n appoint_v for_o to_o seal_v they_o therefore_o in_o the_o primitive_a time_n they_o let_v all_o come_v to_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n and_o then_o when_o the_o sermon_n be_v do_v there_o be_v a_o officer_n step_v up_o and_o cry_v holy_a thing_n for_o holy_a man_n and_o then_o all_o other_o be_v to_o go_v out_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v missa_fw-la though_o the_o papist_n do_v corrupt_v it_o and_o so_o call_v it_o the_o mass_n afterward_o by_o mix_v their_o own_o invention_n in_o stead_n of_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o it_o have_v that_o name_n at_o first_o i_o say_v this_o holy_a communion_n be_v call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o missa_fw-la because_o that_o all_o other_o be_v send_v away_o and_o only_o such_o as_o be_v of_o the_o church_n and_o account_v godly_a stay_v holy_a thing_n to_o holy_a man_n and_o this_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o because_o that_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o be_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n require_v it_o it_o must_v be_v suppose_v that_o all_o that_o come_v hither_o must_v be_v in_o covenant_n with_o god_n they_o must_v be_v such_o as_o have_v be_v bring_v to_o submit_v to_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n now_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v believe_v and_o be_v save_v it_o be_v therefore_o appoint_v for_o believer_n and_o as_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o be_v a_o seal_n suppose_v a_o covenant_n so_o none_o can_v have_v this_o covenant_n seal_v to_o they_o but_o those_o that_o do_v first_o submit_v to_o it_o and_o be_v bring_v into_o covenant_n when_o you_o make_v a_o indenture_n and_o put_v to_o the_o seal_n certain_o the_o seal_n belong_v only_o to_o those_o that_o have_v their_o name_n in_o the_o indenture_n now_o it_o be_v true_a though_o man_n name_n be_v not_o mention_v in_o the_o word_n yet_o the_o condition_n be_v to_o those_o that_o be_v bring_v in_o to_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n say_v god_n i_o come_v now_o to_o seal_v all_o my_o mercy_n in_o christ_n to_o their_o soul_n we_o abuse_v god_n if_o we_o come_v to_o take_v the_o seal_n to_o a_o blank_a it_o be_v to_o make_v this_o ordinance_n a_o ridiculous_a thing_n therefore_o there_o must_v be_v some_o transaction_n between_o god_n and_o your_o soul_n before_o you_o come_v to_o the_o seal_n if_o a_o man_n shall_v say_v unto_o you_o come_v set_v to_o you_o seal_v to_o such_o a_o thing_n and_o there_o be_v never_o any_o kind_n of_o transaction_n between_o this_o man_n &_o you_o before_o you_o will_v account_v it_o ridiculous_a after_o there_o have_v be_v agreement_n between_o you_o you_o use_v then_o to_o seal_v so_o it_o must_v be_v here_o i_o will_v appeal_v to_o many_o of_o your_o conscience_n that_o have_v come_v to_o the_o lord_n supper_n what_o transaction_n have_v there_o be_v between_o god_n and_o your_o soul_n can_v thou_o say_v the_o lord_n be_v please_v to_o reveal_v himself_o to_o i_o to_o make_v know_v to_o i_o my_o wretched_a condition_n and_o the_o way_n of_o grace_n and_o salvation_n and_o show_v i_o that_o upon_o my_o come_n in_o to_o receive_v his_o son_n he_o will_v be_v merciful_a to_o i_o and_o pardon_v my_o sin_n and_o i_o have_v find_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n work_v my_o heart_n to_o jesus_n christ_n the_o lord_n from_o heaven_n speak_v to_o i_o and_o i_o send_v a_o answer_n to_o heaven_n again_o how_o willing_a my_o soul_n be_v to_o accept_v of_o the_o covenant_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v make_v with_o poor_a creature_n in_o the_o word_n of_o his_o gospel_n can_v thou_o say_v this_o in_o the_o uprightness_n of_o thy_o heart_n if_o not_o know_v that_o this_o seal_n belong_v not_o to_o thou_o until_o the_o lord_n have_v by_o his_o word_n subdue_v thy_o heart_n to_o this_o agreement_n first_o with_o he_o second_o this_o ordinance_n it_o be_v the_o ordinance_n of_o spiritual_a nourishment_n of_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n now_o it_o must_v needs_o suppose_v that_o first_o there_o must_v be_v life_n before_o there_o can_v be_v any_o nourishment_n receive_v in_o if_o it_o be_v appoint_v to_o nourish_v and_o increase_v grace_n then_o sure_o there_o must_v be_v grace_n before_o what_o nourishment_n can_v a_o dead_a child_n take_v the_o very_o first_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o be_v do_v be_v nourishment_n here_o the_o word_n have_v power_n to_o convey_v life_n and_o then_o to_o nourish_v but_o we_o read_v of_o no_o such_o thing_n here_o but_o that_o which_o be_v to_o be_v do_v here_o be_v present_o to_o feed_v to_o eat_v and_o to_o drink_v that_o be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o sacrament_n therefore_o it_o must_v be_v suppose_v that_o thou_o must_v have_v spiritual_a life_n there_o must_v come_v no_o dead_a soul_n to_o this_o ordinance_n but_o those_o who_o be_v quicken_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n they_o must_v come_v for_o nourishment_n three_o the_o act_n here_o require_v do_v note_n that_o only_o those_o that_o be_v holy_a and_o godly_a can_v receive_v this_o sacrament_n we_o be_v require_v by_o the_o apostle_n to_o examine_v ourselves_o to_o examine_v ourselves_o of_o what_o it_o must_v be_v of_o our_o godliness_n examine_v what_o work_n of_o god_n have_v be_v upon_o the_o soul_n how_o god_n have_v bring_v the_o soul_n to_o himself_o and_o what_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v there_o and_o how_o we_o have_v be_v bring_v into_o covenant_n with_o god_n now_o if_o only_o those_o can_v receive_v worthy_o and_o be_v to_o come_v that_o first_o
do_v not_o pray_v to_o god_n as_o unto_o a_o god_n vain_a thought_n in_o prayer_n do_v pick_v up_o the_o sacrifice_n like_o the_o bird_n that_o abraham_n drive_v away_o from_o the_o sacrifice_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o peck_v it_o wicked_a lust_n in_o man_n heart_n be_v like_o swine_n to_o take_v the_o meat_n and_o all_o to_o hale_v it_o in_o the_o dirt_n so_o their_o prayer_n be_v filthy_a and_o dirty_a with_o their_o lust_n but_o those_o that_o be_v otherwise_o godly_a yet_o by_o their_o vain_a thought_n the_o beauty_n and_o excellency_n of_o their_o prayer_n be_v take_v away_o as_o

dead_a the_o heart_n very_o much_o so_o say_v david_n in_o the_o 119._o turn_v away_o my_o eye_n from_o behold_v vanity_n and_o quicken_v i_o in_o thy_o law_n while_o our_o eye_n look_v upon_o vanity_n there_o will_v be_v no_o quickness_n in_o our_o heart_n in_o any_o service_n that_o we_o tender_v up_o to_o god_n now_o many_o of_o god_n people_n have_v experience_n of_o the_o evil_a of_o this_o and_o they_o groan_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o this_o and_o as_o i_o say_v the_o last_o time_n if_o so_o be_v that_o the_o lord_n shall_v speak_v from_o heaven_n to_o they_o and_o ask_v they_o what_o they_o will_v have_v they_o have_v already_o the_o assurance_n of_o his_o love_n in_o christ_n they_o will_v ask_v the_o deliverance_n from_o a_o vain_a spirit_n in_o the_o performance_n of_o holy_a duty_n bring_v no_o vain_a oblation_n say_v god_n in_o isa_n 1.13_o oh_o what_o vain_a oblation_n do_v we_o bring_v by_o the_o vanity_n of_o our_o thought_n in_o prayer_n it_o be_v true_a the_o best_a of_o all_o will_v have_v vain_a thought_n sometime_o but_o yet_o as_o one_o compare_v the_o vain_a thought_n of_o man_n in_o prayer_n like_v unto_o a_o spaniel_n that_o go_v out_o with_o a_o man_n he_o walk_v perhaps_o but_o half_o a_o mile_n but_o the_o spaniel_n will_v be_v run_v up_o and_o down_o this_o way_n and_o that_o way_n and_o if_o all_o the_o space_n of_o ground_n which_o the_o spaniel_n have_v go_v over_o shall_v be_v measure_v it_o may_v be_v while_o you_o be_v walk_v half_o a_o mile_n the_o spaniel_n fetch_v compass_n here_o and_o there_o will_v be_v half_a a_o dozen_o mile_n so_o our_o fancy_n be_v like_o a_o spaniel_n which_o will_v have_v fetch_n about_o this_o way_n and_o that_o way_n in_o a_o thousand_o vain_a thought_n but_o thus_o now_o it_o be_v with_o a_o godly_a man_n as_o a_o spaniel_n though_o run_v from_o his_o master_n yet_o if_o he_o give_v he_o a_o call_v he_o be_v able_a to_o call_v he_o to_o he_o present_o and_o it_o be_v well_o if_o it_o be_v so_o with_o we_o though_o our_o fancy_n be_v wild_a yet_o if_o we_o be_v able_a to_o call_v in_o our_o fancy_n and_o to_o have_v they_o at_o command_n it_o be_v well_o with_o we_o and_o i_o find_v it_o very_o much_o that_o those_o that_o be_v new_a comer_n they_o complain_v much_o of_o the_o vanity_n of_o their_o thought_n they_o be_v wont_a to_o pray_v before_o and_o they_o never_o have_v such_o vain_a thought_n as_o now_o they_o have_v the_o reason_n why_o there_o be_v so_o much_o vanity_n of_o thought_n or_o at_o least_o so_o much_o take_v notice_n of_o it_o be_v first_o because_o there_o be_v but_o a_o little_a grace_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o corruption_n in_o young_a convert_n like_o a_o spark_n of_o fire_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o ash_n now_o if_o there_o lie_v a_o heap_n of_o ash_n and_o nothing_o else_o you_o do_v not_o stir_v they_o but_o if_o there_o be_v ash_n and_o some_o fire_n than_o you_o will_v stir_v they_o and_o be_v blow_v those_o spark_n to_o kindle_v another_o fire_n by_o now_o when_o you_o come_v to_o make_v any_o motion_n than_o the_o ash_n will_v fly_v about_o whereas_o before_o they_o lie_v still_o so_o it_o be_v here_o before_o god_n wrought_v upon_o thy_o heart_n there_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o ash_n upon_o thy_o soul_n and_o then_o they_o lie_v still_o but_o now_o god_n have_v kindle_v some_o spark_n of_o grace_n in_o thy_o heart_n and_o god_n be_v blow_v they_o up_o to_o a_o great_a heat_n and_o be_v bring_v of_o they_o to_o a_o flame_n upon_o this_o motion_n that_o be_v in_o thy_o heart_n and_o the_o stir_v to_o kindle_v those_o spark_n further_o in_o thy_o heart_n it_o be_v that_o the_o ash_n of_o thy_o corruption_n do_v as_o it_o be_v fly_v above_o thy_o ear_n and_o that_o there_o be_v such_o stir_n of_o corruption_n more_o than_o there_o be_v before_o it_o be_v not_o because_o there_o be_v more_o corruption_n than_o there_o be_v former_o but_o before_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o corruption_n it_o lay_v still_o and_o now_o because_o there_o be_v something_o else_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o corruption_n do_v so_o stir_v and_o beside_o you_o know_v a_o man_n that_o be_v wont_a to_o keep_v lewd_a company_n if_o god_n turn_v he_o that_o he_o will_v keep_v that_o company_n no_o more_o at_o first_o he_o shall_v be_v more_o trouble_v with_o they_o than_o he_o be_v before_o and_o they_o will_v keep_v often_o knockin_n at_o his_o door_n and_o labour_v to_o get_v he_o to_o they_o again_o so_o it_o be_v here_o when_o the_o soul_n vanity_n and_o lust_n be_v as_o friend_n together_o there_o be_v no_o disturbance_n and_o take_v notice_n of_o any_o thing_n then_o but_o now_o when_o the_o soul_n be_v cast_v out_o those_o sinful_a distemper_n and_o will_v have_v no_o more_o of_o they_o they_o for_o the_o present_n will_v be_v more_o importunate_a active_a and_o stir_v than_o they_o be_v before_o and_o beside_o the_o lord_n do_v this_o to_o humble_v thy_o heart_n the_o more_o that_o thereby_o thou_o may_v come_v to_o see_v the_o great_a corruption_n that_o be_v in_o thy_o soul_n before_o the_o work_n of_o thy_o corruption_n will_v discover_v much_o evil_n in_o thy_o heart_n that_o thou_o do_v not_o think_v be_v there_o before_o when_o the_o corruption_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n lie_v still_o they_o think_v there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o their_o soul_n as_o your_o civil_a man_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o they_o bless_v themselves_o and_o think_v they_o be_v in_o a_o good_a condition_n it_o be_v because_o their_o corruption_n lie_v still_o in_o they_o and_o do_v not_o stir_v they_o can_v believe_v what_o abundance_n of_o wickedness_n there_o be_v in_o their_o heart_n if_o god_n shall_v open_v the_o wickedness_n that_o there_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n natural_o and_o so_o all_o unregenerate_a man_n they_o will_v think_v you_o speak_v strange_a riddle_n whereas_o they_o bless_v themselves_o they_o bless_v god_n they_o know_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o their_o heart_n no_o yes_o there_o be_v such_o thing_n only_o they_o be_v not_o stir_v but_o they_o lie_v quiet_a as_o mud_n in_o the_o bottom_n of_o a_o pond_n there_o it_o be_v yet_o you_o can_v see_v it_o till_o it_o be_v stir_v at_o first_o conversion_n i_o say_v the_o lord_n suffer_v thy_o corruption_n thus_o to_o

look_v upon_o themselves_o more_o loathsome_a and_o vile_a than_o over_o they_o think_v they_o have_v be_v and_o beside_o the_o devil_n see_v it_o a_o vain_a thing_n to_o tempt_v a_o young_a convert_n to_o any_o gross_a act_n of_o sin_n when_o conscience_n have_v life_n and_o power_n in_o it_o he_o shall_v never_o prevail_v that_o way_n but_o now_o he_o think_v he_o may_v prevail_v to_o disturb_v
