such_o may_v well_o think_v that_o they_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n he_o that_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n will_v endeavour_v in_o some_o measure_n to_o speak_v the_o word●_n of_o

to_o strengthen_v we_o and_o help_v we_o when_o moses_n die_v and_o joshuah_n succeed_v he_o he_o have_v great_a difficulty_n to_o go_v through_o in_o the_o work_n he_o be_v call_v to_o but_o say_v the_o lord_n fear_v not_o be_v not_o discourage_v i_o will_v not_o fail_v thou_o nor_o forsake_v thou_o therefore_o if_o you_o be_v assure_v that_o the_o lord_n call_v you_o to_o the_o work_n and_o

and_o strengthen_v you_o with_o might_n by_o his_o spirit_n in_o the_o inward_a man_n use_v 3_o learn_v from_o hence_o the_o excellency_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o that_o he_o be_v fill_v with_o the_o spirit_n beside_o his_o infinite_a glory_n as_o god_n you_o may_v see_v here_o what_o excellency_n be_v in_o he_o even_o as_o to_o his_o humane_a nature_n in_o that_o the_o spirit_n be_v not_o give_v by_o measure_n unto_o he_o but_o beyond_o what_o be_v give_v to_o any_o other_o man_n or_o angel_n take_v a_o saint_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o he_o adorn_v he_o in_o the_o eye_n of_o other_o you_o will_v say_v there_o be_v such_o a_o one_o how_o full_a of_o love_n of_o wisdom_n of_o humility_n be_v he_o this_o make_v he_o beautiful_a indeed_o but_o then_o how_o glorious_a shall_v christ_n be_v in_o our_o eye_n both_z as_o to_o his_o godhead_n and_o as_o to_o the_o wisdom_n purity_n holiness_n and_o fullness_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o his_o humane_a nature_n in_o which_o respect_n even_o ●s_v the_o son_n of_o man_n he_o be_v fair_a than_o all_o the_o child_n of_o man_n and_o then_o all_o the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n suppose_v all_o the_o grace_n that_o be_v in_o all_o the_o saint_n and_o angel_n be_v abstract_v and_o put_v all_o into_o one_o yet_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o fullness_n and_o grace_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n there_o be_v wisdom_n love_n meekness_n and_o every_o grace_n in_o christ_n that_o be_v compatible_a to_o his_o pure_a and_o holy_a nature_n without_o measure_n use_v 4._o learn_v from_o hence_o to_o go_v to_o christ_n for_o the_o spirit_n and_o grace_n in_o all_o our_o time_n of_o need_n he_o be_v fill_v with_o the_o spirit_n in_o our_o nature_n and_o as_o the_o egyptian_n when_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o starve_v in_o the_o famine_n and_o come_v to_o pharaoh_n he_o send_v they_o to_o joseph_n go_v to_o joseph_n so_o go_v to_o jesus_n there_o you_o may_v be_v supply_v go_v to_o jesus_n for_o the_o spirit_n to_o mortify_v our_o corruption_n to_o quicken_v our_o grace_n to_o help_v we_o in_o all_o our_o duty_n and_o suffering_n as_o jacob_n say_v to_o his_o son_n why_o stand_v you_o look_v one_o upon_o another_o there_o be_v corn_n in_o egypt_n go_v and_o fetch_v from_o thence_o that_o we_o may_v not_o perish_v so_o let_v believer_n go_v to_o jesus_n christ_n and_o fetch_v supply_n of_o grace_n from_o he_o go_v to_o he_o as_o one_o that_o be_v able_a and_o willing_a to_o help_v his_o people_n in_o all_o their_o time_n of_o need_n last_o we_o may_v learn_v from_o hence_o the_o ignorance_n and_o blasphemy_n of_o those_o that_o make_v a_o mock_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o deride_v other_o as_o prize_v the_o spirit_n whereas_o the_o excellency_n of_o christ_n be_v set_v forth_o among_o other_o thing_n by_o this_o that_o he_o be_v fill_v with_o the_o spirit_n it_o be_v true_a many_o may_v pretend_v to_o the_o spirit_n that_o have_v he_o not_o but_o therefore_o to_o make_v a_o mock_n of_o have_v the_o spirit_n be_v no_o less_o than_o blasphemy_n the_o spirit_n be_v give_v to_o all_o believer_n and_o he_o that_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v none_o of_o he_o not_o yet_o of_o his_o call_v once_o the_o believer_n be_v call_v the_o spiritual_a man_n 1_o cor._n 2.15_o some_o may_v pretend_v to_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o christ_n and_o yet_o be_v mistake_v but_o he_o that_o shall_v mock_v people_n and_o use_v it_o as_o a_o reproach_n to_o they_o that_o they_o believe_v in_o christ_n and_o be_v christian_n be_v a_o blasphemer_n and_o so_o be_v he_o that_o shall_v use_v it_o as_o a_o reproach_n to_o any_o that_o this_o be_v one_o that_o have_v the_o spirit_n now_o i_o come_v to_o vers_fw-la 35._o the_o father_n love_v the_o son_n and_o have_v give_v all_o thing_n into_o his_o hand_n these_o word_n seem_v to_o hold_v forth_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o former_a he_o have_v say_v before_o that_o god_n give_v not_o the_o spirit_n by_o measure_n unto_o he_o that_o be_v christ_n and_o why_o so_o for_o the_o father_n love_v the_o son_n and_o have_v give_v all_o thing_n into_o his_o hand_n the_o father_n love_v the_o elect_a angel_n and_o love_v

and_o now_o there_o come_v a_o powerful_a light_n into_o the_o heart_n to_o reveal_v christ_n so_o as_o to_o enable_v the_o soul_n to_o see_v christ_n hold_v forth_o in_o the_o promise_n and_o to_o

now_o the_o soul_n say_v it_o be_v so_o indeed_o it_o be_v worthy_a of_o all_o acceptation_n the_o soul_n now_o be_v wrought_v by_o the_o spirit_n to_o approve_v and_o like_o this_o way_n of_o

will_v do_v it_o your_o heart_n be_v not_o right_a say_v he_o you_o pretend_v and_o say_v whatever_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n shall_v say_v we_o will_v do_v but_o you_o do_v dissemble_v this_o be_v

you_o have_v a_o instance_n for_o this_o in_o exod._n 6.9_o and_o moses_n speak_v so_o unto_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n but_o they_o hearken_v not_o unto_o moses_n how_o do_v he_o speak_v to_o the_o
