and_o edification_n by_o one_o hour_n private_a discourse_n than_o by_o multiply_a hour_n spend_v in_o public_a sermon_n and_o much_o be_v it_o to_o be_v wish_v that_o there_o be_v care_n have_v as_o

of_o his_o particular_a interest_n that_o instead_o of_o know_v the_o number_n of_o those_o that_o shall_v be_v save_v he_o shall_v strive_v to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o number_n well_o be_v it_o if_o those_o little-edifying_a question_n between_o calvin_n and_o arminius_n about_o call_v and_o election_n be_v convert_v into_o serious_a endeavour_n to_o make_v our_o call_n and_o election_n sure_a and_o there_o be_v more_o care_n to_o advance_v christ_n kingdom_n in_o our_o heart_n then_o to_o dispute_v when_o and_o where_o his_o personal_a reign_n shall_v be_v upon_o the_o earth_n 35_o if_o

after_o sanballat_n and_o so_o have_v miss_v of_o the_o true_a stream_n by_o not_o ascend_v to_o the_o true_a primitive_a fountain_n but_o our_o lord_n reduce_v this_o controversy_n about_o worship_n to_o the_o proper_a consideration_n of_o the_o true_a object_n of_o worship_n not_o dispute_v how_o or_o where_o or_o when_o but_o what_o be_v to_o be_v worship_v and_o direct_v the_o mind_n to_o such_o worship_n as_o be_v suitable_a and_o therefore_o likely_a to_o be_v acceptable_a viz_o spiritual_a like_o the_o spirit_n we_o worship_v and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v find_v god_n call_v man_n off_o from_o ceremony_n as_o he_o have_v call_v they_o on_o to_o further_a discovery_n as_o he_o reveal_v himself_o more_o clear_o in_o gospel_n light_n so_o the_o shadow_n flee_v away_o and_o

with_o our_o particular_a persuasion_n no_o dissolve_v of_o the_o golden_a chain_n of_o christian_a charity_n for_o any_o difference_n of_o judgement_n in_o this_o wherein_o a_o thing_n and_o its_o

jew_n till_o he_o have_v remove_v they_o out_o of_o his_o sight_n and_o destroy_v their_o city_n by_o nabuchadnezzar_n to_o be_v the_o sin_n of_o manasseh_n and_o the_o innocent_a blood_n which_o he_o shed_v which_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o pardon_v 2_o king_n 24.3_o 4._o yet_o we_o read_v those_o sin_n be_v pardon_v to_o manesseh_n upon_o his_o faith_n and_o repentance_n and_o the_o present_a judgement_n under_o which_o he_o suffer_v remove_v yea_o manasseh_n depart_v this_o life_n long_o before_o the_o destruction_n of_o jerusalem_n so_o that_o the_o calamity_n then_o suffer_v little_o pertain_v unto_o he_o who_o the_o grave_n have_v secure_v against_o such_o afterclap_n but_o though_o manasseh_n be_v dead_a and_o his_o iniquity_n forgive_v to_o he_o yet_o his_o posterity_n do_v approve_v his_o do_n that_o reformation_n begin_v by_o himself_o and_o carry_v on_o to_o much_o perfection_n by_o his_o son_n josiah_n be_v quick_o interrupt_v by_o the_o wicked_a posterity_n that_o follow_v they_o by_o their_o assent_n subscribe_v to_o the_o long_a beadroll_n of_o those_o sin_n which_o the_o father_n have_v disclaim_v and_o add_v a_o new_a score_n of_o their_o own_o iniquity_n therefore_o it_o be_v just_a with_o god_n to_o reckon_v to_o they_o and_o make_v they_o pay_v that_o account_n which_o they_o themselves_o have_v approve_v and_o this_o be_v the_o way_n whereby_o a_o wicked_a generation_n may_v entail_v themselves_o heir_n to_o the_o iniquity_n and_o consequent_o to_o the_o plague_n of_o all_o precedent_a age_n thus_o all_o the_o blood_n from_o that_o of_o righteous_a abel_n to_o that_o of_o zacharias_n the_o son_n of_o barachias_n be_v reckon_v to_o the_o unbelieved_a jew_n and_o therefore_o wrath_n bring_v upon_o they_o to_o the_o uttermost_a wherefore_o no_o wonder_n if_o we_o see_v estate_n get_v by_o bribery_n or_o oppression_n melt_v away_o like_o the_o untimely_a fruit_n of_o a_o woman_n while_o the_o succeed_a heir_n instead_o of_o make_v due_a restitution_n justify_v the_o rapine_n of_o their_o progenitor_n and_o spend_v that_o by_o riot_n and_o prodigality_n which_o they_o get_v by_o extortion_n and_o cruelty_n 38_o when_o our_o lord_n command_v the_o legion_n out_o of_o the_o possess_v that_o haunt_v the_o tomb_n mark_n 5.10_o we_o read_v that_o he_o beseech_v he_o much_o that_o he_o will_v not_o send_v they_o out_o of_o the_o country_n i_o begin_v to_o think_v why_o the_o devil_n shall_v desire_v to_o abide_v in_o those_o part_n but_o i_o find_v the_o people_n of_o the_o place_n come_v to_o christ_n and_o desire_v he_o to_o depart_v out_o of_o their_o country_n no_o wonder_n the_o devil_n desire_v there_o to_o abide_v where_o the_o people_n pray_v the_o lord_n to_o be_v go_v it_o be_v a_o sweet_a content_n to_o the_o devil_n to_o have_v their_o mansion_n there_o where_o the_o inhabitant_n love_v their_o hog_n more_o than_o their_o soul_n and_o give_v christ_n not_o so_o much_o entertainment_n as_o they_o will_v do_v a_o swineherd_n it_o be_v like_o these_o be_v countrey-farmers_n who_o know_v no_o more_o religion_n than_o a_o collect_v for_o rain_n and_o fair_a weather_n in_o its_o season_n god_n have_v promise_v his_o presence_n where_o two_o or_o three_o be_v gather_v together_o about_o the_o affair_n of_o his_o worship_n and_o the_o lord_n say_v his_o father_n and_o he_o will_v come_v and_o sup_v and_o make_v their_o abode_n with_o he_o who_o love_v he_o &_o keep_v his_o commandment_n so_o contrary_o the_o devil_n delight_v to_o possess_v those_o house_n from_o whence_o all_o act_n of_o religion_n be_v banish_v and_o god_n be_v not_o name_v unless_o as_o by_o the_o damn_a in_o hell_n that_o he_o may_v be_v blaspheme_v but_o whereas_o one_o evangelist_n say_v
