the_o saint_n of_o god_n the_o child_n of_o israel_n the_o church_n of_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o people_n near_o to_o god_n why_o near_o he_o because_o that_o they_o worship_n god_n they_o be_v

in_o his_o worship_n therefore_o they_o be_v near_o god_n quest_n near_o he_o why_o in_o what_o respect_n may_v a_o man_n be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n when_o he_o worship_n he_o answ_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v there_o be_v three_o respect_n in_o which_o a_o man_n when_o he_o be_v worship_v god_n may_v be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n first_o because_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n and_o service_n unto_o he_o that_o be_v due_a from_o we_o as_o creature_n to_o the_o infinite_a creator_n that_o be_v the_o very_a end_n of_o worship_n if_o you_o will_v know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n it_o be_v this_o you_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n and_o respect_n that_o be_v due_a from_o the_o creature_n to_o the_o creator_n now_o when_o a_o subject_a come_v to_o tender_v up_o his_o homage_n to_o his_o prince_n he_o come_v towards_o he_o when_o he_o do_v it_o immediate_o so_o we_o have_v none_o to_o tender_v it_o up_o by_o but_o jesus_n christ_n and_o when_o we_o tender_v it_o up_o we_o must_v come_v ourselves_o too_o for_o christ_n do_v nor_o take_v our_o service_n and_o tender_v it_o up_o to_o god_n and_o we_o be_v absent_a but_o we_o must_v come_v with_o christ_n and_o christ_n take_v we_o by_o the_o hand_n and_o so_o tender_v it_o up_o to_o the_o father_n while_o we_o be_v in_o presence_n so_o that_o we_o be_v say_v to_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o that_o respect_n because_o of_o the_o immediate_a tender_v up_o of_o that_o worship_n of_o we_o to_o god_n i_o call_v it_o immediate_a in_o respect_n of_o any_o creature_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o christ_n indeed_o he_o be_v a_o mediator_n to_o do_v it_o but_o yet_o he_o do_v it_o in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n and_o we_o have_v to_o do_v with_o none_o but_o god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o tender_v up_o of_o our_o worship_n to_o he_o we_o may_v make_v use_n of_o a_o institution_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v but_o we_o do_v not_o tender_v up_o our_o worship_n to_o god_n through_o that_o creature_n but_o in_o the_o use_n of_o that_o creature_n we_o do_v come_v to_o god_n and_o our_o soul_n be_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o respect_n we_o owe_v to_o god_n immediate_o therefore_o in_o levit_fw-la 21._o 21._o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o priest_n in_o their_o sacrifice_n when_o they_o be_v to_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n no_o man_n that_o have_v a_o blemish_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o aaron_n the_o priest_n shall_v come_v nigh_o to_o offer_v the_o offering_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v by_o fire_n so_o that_o when_o any_o come_v to_o offer_v any_o offering_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v by_o fire_n it_o appear_v he_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n he_o come_v to_o bring_v a_o present_a to_o god_n therefore_o he_o come_v nigh_o so_o when_o we_o come_v 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 duty_n because_o it_o do_v present_v its_o self_n before_o god_n in_o those_o way_n through_o which_o god_n do_v use_v to_o communicate_v his_o choice_n precious_a most_o excellent_a and_o glorious_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 choice_n most_o excellent_a and_o glorious_a rich_a mercy_n that_o he_o have_v to_o communicate_v to_o his_o creature_n when_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o creature_n as_o meat_n and_o drink_n and_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 be_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o why_o those_o that_o be_v in_o heaven_n be_v say_v to_o live_v with_o god_n there_o they_o behold_v the_o face_n of_o god_n and_o be_v before_o he_o in_o a_o special_a manner_n therefore_o when_o christ_n teach_v we_o to_o pray_v he_o teach_v we_o to_o look_v up_o to_o heaven_n and_o to_o say_v our_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n etc._n etc._n now_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 his_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n to_o his_o people_n you_o may_v expect_v other_o manner_n of_o communication_n of_o god_n goodness_n through_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n than_o in_o any_o other_o way_n and_o that_o be_v the_o second_o respect_n wherein_o you_o may_v be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n three_o you_o may_v be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n because_o than_o we_o shall_v and_o if_o we_o worship_v 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

there_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o heathen_n he_o do_v rebuke_v they_o for_o what_o it_o be_v for_o this_o because_o that_o when_o they_o know_v god_n they_o glorify_v he_o not_o as_o god_n

god_n that_o be_v then_o to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n to_o glorify_v god_n as_o god_n and_o therefore_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o 4._o of_o john_n when_o he_o speak_v to_o the_o woman_n of_o samaria_n he_o tell_v she_o that_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o must_v be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n that_o be_v we_o must_v labour_v to_o suit_v our_o worship_n to_o what_o ther●_n be_v in_o god_n that_o our_o worship_n my_o be_v proportionable_a in_o some_o measure_n even_o to_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n himself_o and_o therefore_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n his_o worship_n must_v be_v a_o divine_a worship_n i_o have_v read_v of_o some_o of_o the_o heathen_n that_o dip_v worship_v the_o sun_n for_o a_o god_n and_o they_o will_v offer_v to_o the_o sun_n something_o suitable_a therefore_o because_o they_o do_v so_o admire_v at_o the_o swiftness_n of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o sun_n they_o will_v not_o offer_v a_o snail_n to_o the_o sun_n but_o a_o f●ying_a horse_n a_o horse_n with_o wing_n now_o a_o horse_n be_v one_o of_o the_o swift_a creature_n and_o the_o strong_a creature_n to_o continue_v in_o motion_n for_o a_o long_a time_n together_o and_o they_o add_v wing_n to_o the_o horse_n and_o they_o think_v that_o suitable_a to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o sun_n so_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n that_o be_v to_o sanctify_v his_o name_n we_o must_v behave_v ourselves_o so_o as_o to_o give_v he_o the_o glory_n that_o be_v fit_a for_o a_o god_n to_o have_v as_o now_o in_o those_o three_o particular_n which_o i_o open_v to_o you_o when_o i_o show_v you_o wherein_o we_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n this_o be_v one_o i_o tell_v you_o that_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o some_o present_n to_o god_n now_o than_o we_o must_v tender_v up_o such_o a_o present_a as_o be_v suitable_a to_o god_n excellency_n if_o a_o man_n shall_v come_v to_o a_o poor_a man_n to_o give_v a_o present_a if_o it_o be_v not_o worthy_a twelve_o penny_n yet_o it_o may_v be_v take_v well_o but_o if_o you_o be_v to_o tender_v up_o a_o present_a to_o a_o prince_n a_o monarch_n a_o emperor_n than_o you_o must_v tender_v a_o present_a that_o be_v fit_a for_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o preson_z therefore_o in_o malachi_n 1._o 8._o when_o the_o lord_n rebuke_n they_o for_o their_o sacrifice_n that_o they_o be_v such_o poor_a thing_n go_v say_v god_n and_o tender_v up_o this_o to_o your_o governor_n and_o see_v whether_o he_o will_v accept_v of_o it_o or_o no._n so_o certain_o that_o which_o may_v be_v accept_v of_o by_o a_o mean_a man_n will_v be_v account_v a_o scorn_n if_o you_o shall_v tender_v it_o up_o to_o a_o prince_n or_o a_o emperor_n now_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o must_v consider_v that_o we_o be_v to_o tender_v up_o our_o service_n to_o god_n who_o be_v the_o great_a king_n of_o king_n and_o lord_n of_o lord_n but_o you_o will_v say_v be_v it_o possible_a for_o any_o creature_n which_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o its_o worship_n to_o god_n to_o tender_v up_o that_o which_o be_v fit_a for_o a_o god_n to_o have_v this_o may_v rather_o be_v a_o discouragement_n unto_o prayer_n or_o any_o other_o duty_n of_o worship_n than_o a_o encouragement_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v thus_o though_o we_o be_v very_o poor_a and_o mean_a yet_o it_o do_v not_o hinder_v but_o we_o may_v tender_v up_o that_o to_o god_n which_o god_n will_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v suitable_a to_o his_o infinite_a excellency_n as_o first_o if_o we_o tender_v up_o to_o god_n all_o that_o we_o have_v though_o we_o be_v never_o so_o poor_a and_o mean_a yet_o if_o god_n have_v the_o strength_n of_o our_o soul_n god_n accept_v it_o for_o we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o god_n do_v not_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o what_o we_o have_v or_o of_o what_o we_o do_v but_o that_o we_o may_v show_v our_o respect_n to_o he_o therefore_o if_o we_o give_v all_o that_o we_o have_v god_n accept_v it_o as_o a_o child_n if_o it_o put_v forth_o all_o its_o strength_n that_o it_o have_v to_o do_v a_o business_n which_o the_o father_n bid_v he_o whether_o the_o business_n be_v dove_n or_o no_o the_o father_n look_v upon_o it_o and_o accept_v it_o as_o suitable_a to_o the_o child_n strength_n and_o it_o show_v the_o respect_n that_o the_o child_n have_v to_o his_o father_n and_o as_o it_o be_v story_v of_o a_o emperor_n that_o when_o a_o poor_a man_n have_v nothing_o to_o offer_v he_o but_o a_o little_a water_n that_o he_o have_v take_v up_o with_o his_o hand_n he_o have_v nothing_o else_o the_o emperor_n accept_v of_o it_o so_o that_o be_v that_o which_o god_n look_v for_o that_o the_o creature_n shall_v lift_v he_o above_o all_o if_o therefore_o when_o thou_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n god_n have_v more_o in_o thy_o heart_n than_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 the_o thing_n itself_o as_o indeed_o be_v our_o heart_n right_a as_o they_o shall_v than_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 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 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._o 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 worship_n be_v this_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n if_o we_o will_v sanctify_v god_n name_n we_o must_v have_v high_a thought_n of_o god_n we_o must_v look_v upon_o god_n as_o he_o be_v upon_o his_o throne_n in_o majesty_n and_o in_o glory_n as_o in_o isa_n 9_o 1_o 2._o you_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o prophet_n see_v the_o lord_n upon_o his_o throne_n it_o be_v a_o

when_o thou_o come_v to_o he_o the_o great_a reason_n why_o people_n come_v and_o worship_n god_n in_o a_o slight_a way_n it_o be_v because_o that_o they_o do_v not_o see_v god_n in_o his_o glory_n

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._o 24._o then_o present_o christ_n say_v that_o he_o that_o worship_v he_o must_v worship_v

do_v come_v and_o present_v my_o body_n to_o hear_v the_o word_n or_o my_o body_n to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n this_o be_v not_o to_o worship_n god_n as_o a_o spirit_n if_o indeed_o that_o our_o

the_o apostle_n in_o 1_o tim._n 4._o 8._o say_v that_o bodily_a exercise_n profit_v little_a it_o be_v no_o great_a matter_n for_o the_o body_n god_n look_v but_o very_o little_a at_o bodily_a

when_o you_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n your_o soul_n must_v feed_v upon_o jesus_n christ_n bodily-worship_n without_o soul-worship_n be_v nothing_o but_o soul-worship_n may_v be_v

you_o may_v worship_v he_o in_o your_o soul_n and_o god_n regard_v that_o bodily_a exercise_n in_o holy_a duty_n be_v little_a worth_n somewhat_o it_o may_v be_v worth_a i_o confess_v sometime_o

of_o the_o soul_n for_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o must_v be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o spirit_n not_o only_o in_o that_o he_o be_v not_o of_o so_o thick_a a_o

then_o whatsoever_o sin_n thou_o do_v confess_v although_o commit_v 20._o or_o 40._o year_n ago_o thou_o must_v look_v upon_o it_o as_o if_o it_o be_v now_o present_o commit_v and_o be_v humble_v as_o

to_o come_v to_o god_n in_o prayer_n or_o in_o any_o other_o duty_n and_o when_o you_o be_v worship_v of_o god_n remember_v that_o you_o have_v to_o do_v with_o god_n and_o none_o else_o you_o be_v every_o time_n you_o come_v to_o perform_v holy_a duty_n to_o be_v as_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n separate_v from_o all_o thing_n valerius_n maximus_n tell_v a_o story_n of_o a_o young_a nobleman_n that_o attend_v upon_o alexander_n while_o he_o be_v sacrifice_v this_o nobleman_n hold_v his_o censer_n for_o incense_n and_o in_o the_o hold_n of_o it_o there_o fall_v a_o coal_n upon_o his_o flesh_n and_o burn_v it_o so_o as_o the_o very_a scent_n of_o it_o be_v in_o the_o nostril_n of_o all_o that_o be_v about_o he_o and_o because_o he_o will_v not_o disturb_v alexander_n in_o his_o service_n he_o resolute_o do_v not_o stir_v to_o put_v of_o the_o fire_n from_o he_o but_o hold_v still_o his_o censer_n if_o heathen_n make_v such_o ado_n in_o their_o sacrifice_v to_o their_o idol-god_n that_o they_o will_v mind_v it_o so_o as_o no_o disturbance_n must_v be_v make_v what_o ever_o they_o endure_v what_o care_n shall_v we_o have_v then_o of_o ourselves_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_v the_o high_a god_n and_o so_o josephus_n he_o report_v of_o the_o priest_n that_o be_v sacrifice_v in_o the_o temple_n when_o pompey_n break_v in_o to_o they_o with_o arm_a man_n and_o though_o they_o may_v have_v flee_v and_o save_v their_o life_n yet_o they_o will_v not_o leave_v off_o their_o sacrifice_a but_o be_v slay_v by_o the_o soldier_n they_o do_v so_o mind_n it_o as_o a_o matter_n of_o great_a consequence_n oh_o that_o we_o can_v mind_v the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n as_o matter_n of_o great_a moment_n that_o so_o we_o may_v learn_v to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o the_o performance_n of_o they_o more_o than_o ever_o we_o have_v do_v 2._o when_o thou_o come_v to_o worship_n take_v heed_n thou_o do_v not_o come_v in_o thy_o own_o strength_n for_o there_o be_v more_o require_v in_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n than_o thy_o strength_n be_v able_a to_o carry_v thou_o on_o in_o and_o therefore_o act_v thy_o faith_n upon_o jesus_n christ_n every_o time_n thou_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n not_o only_o as_o i_o say_v before_o to_o tender_v up_o thy_o service_n in_o his_o name_n but_o act_v thy_o faith_n upon_o christ_n to_o give_v thou_o strength_n to_o do_v what_o thou_o have_v to_o do_v and_o what_o strength_n thou_o have_v receive_v from_o christ_n be_v sure_a to_o stir_v it_o up_o many_o godly_a man_n and_o woman_n have_v more_o strength_n than_o they_o know_v of_o themselves_o and_o if_o they_o will_v but_o stir_v up_o that_o strength_n that_o they_o have_v receive_v they_o may_v sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n a_o great_a deal_n more_o than_o they_o do_v therefore_o remember_v that_o text_n before_o mention_v none_o stir_v up_o himself_o to_o take_v hold_n on_o god_n quicken_v up_o thy_o heart_n and_o rouse_v up_o thy_o spirit_n when_o thou_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n 3._o when_o ever_o thou_o be_v worship_v of_o god_n do_v not_o satisfy_v thyself_o mere_o in_o the_o duty_n do_v but_o consider_v do_v i_o

the_o shame_n and_o sorrow_n of_o heart_n for_o it_o abide_v upon_o thou_o till_o the_o next_o time_n thou_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n and_o that_o will_v mighty_o help_v thou_o thou_o be_v now_o pray_v and_o thou_o can_v not_o now_o get_v up_o thy_o heart_n to_o what_o be_v require_v the_o next_o time_n thou_o come_v to_o prayer_n come_v in_o the_o shame_n and_o sorrow_n of_o thy_o heart_n for_o the_o want_n of_o sanctify_a god_n name_v the_o last_o time_n and_o so_o for_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n or_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n and_o this_o will_v further_o thou_o mighty_o for_o the_o sanctify_a the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n but_o now_o that_o all_o may_v be_v seal_v up_o unto_o you_o and_o so_o that_o we_o may_v close_v the_o point_n know_v that_o god_n will_v be_v

god_n will_v manifest_v that_o he_o be_v displease_v with_o such_o duty_n that_o thou_o do_v perform_v he_o will_v manifest_v it_o one_o way_n or_o other_o that_o he_o be_v a_o holy_a god_n and_o he_o do_v not_o accept_v of_o such_o unholy_a thing_n as_o thou_o do_v tender_a up_o to_o he_o for_o the_o truth_n be_v if_o god_n shall_v accept_v of_o such_o unholy_a thing_n from_o man_n god_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v like_a unto_o themselves_o as_o a_o man_n if_o he_o do_v entertain_v any_o as_o his_o familiar_a friend_n that_o be_v naught_o and_o wicked_a it_o be_v his_o disgrace_n and_o

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

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

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 act_v 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 straighten_v now_o can_v thou_o rise_v up_o with_o

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 dead_a and_o dull_a than_o they_o be_v before_o and_o have_v less_o mind_n to_o the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n than_o they_o have_v former_o be_v this_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n you_o will_v find_v as_o much_o savour_n and_o relish_v in_o they_o afterward_o as_o there_o be_v at_o that_o time_n second_o for_o natural_a conscience_n which_o sometime_o put_v man_n upon_o act_v of_o

the_o spirit_n of_o god_n put_v thou_o upon_o a_o duty_n it_o give_v thou_o some_o strength_n to_o perform_v it_o some_o strength_n whereby_o thou_o get_v some_o communion_n with_o god_n 2._o if_o
