lame_a in_o thy_o body_n yet_o if_o thou_o can_v walk_v in_o the_o way_n of_o god_n commandment_n and_o run_v there_o thou_o be_v a_o happy_a creature_n it_o may_v be_v thou_o want_v food_n i_o but_o if_o god_n feed_v thy_o soul_n with_o spiritual_a manna_n feed_v thou_o every_o day_n with_o food_n from_o heaven_n and_o take_v care_n for_o the_o feed_n of_o thy_o soul_n thou_o be_v not_o so_o miserable_a as_o thou_o think_v thyself_o thou_o have_v totter_a clothes_n i_o but_o if_o god_n have_v provide_v the_o righteousness_n of_o his_o son_n to_o be_v a_o garment_n to_o cloach_n thy_o soul_n every_o time_n thou_o appear_v before_o he_o thou_o be_v a_o happy_a creature_n in_o that_o therefore_o when_o thy_o heart_n be_v ready_a to_o murmur_v that_o god_n have_v deny_v thou_o bodily_a mercy_n that_o he_o have_v grant_v to_o other_o think_v with_o thyself_o i_o but_o have_v not_o god_n recompense_v i_o in_o soul_n mercy_n i_o make_v no_o question_n but_o there_o be_v many_o soul_n that_o bless_v god_n that_o ever_o they_o have_v live_v to_o this_o time_n though_o they_o have_v suffer_v hard_a thing_n for_o their_o body_n many_o that_o have_v lose_v and_o be_v plunder_v of_o all_o yet_o bless_v god_n that_o they_o have_v live_v to_o the_o time_n wherein_o there_o be_v so_o much_o plenty_n of_o the_o food_n of_o soul_n oh_o those_o truth_n of_o god_n that_o have_v be_v reveal_v unto_o we_o since_o those_o time_n but_o have_v those_o that_o have_v the_o power_n before_o have_v the_o power_n still_o continue_v we_o have_v never_o have_v such_o truth_n make_v know_v unto_o we_o they_o account_v all_o recompense_v in_o soul-mercy_n in_o eph._n 1.3_o bless_a be_v the_o god_n and_o father_n of_o 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 heavenly_a place_n in_o christ_n mark_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v there_o his_o heart_n be_v fill_v with_o this_o bless_a be_v god_n and_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n wherefore_o that_o he_o have_v give_v we_o good_a trade_n and_o good_a income_n that_o have_v give_v we_o food_n and_o raiment_n we_o be_v to_o bless_v god_n for_o this_o i_o but_o the_o apostle_n heart_n be_v above_o this_o therefore_o say_v he_o bless_a be_v the_o god_n and_o father_n of_o 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 heavenly_a thing_n in_o christ_n they_o be_v the_o blessing_n indeed_o that_o we_o have_v cause_n to_o bless_v he_o for_o spiritual_a blessing_n soul-mercy_n as_o for_o bodily-mercy_n we_o know_v that_o the_o heathen_n and_o reprobate_n have_v have_v as_o great_a a_o share_n in_o as_o any_o in_o the_o world_n but_o bless_v be_v god_n though_o we_o be_v deny_v these_o outward_a bodily_a favour_n yet_o we_o have_v spiritual_a blessing_n oh_o thanks_o be_v to_o god_n and_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v bless_v we_o with_o spiritual_a blessing_n in_o heavenly_a place_n in_o christ_n and_o this_o now_o will_v be_v a_o good_a argument_n that_o you_o do_v know_v the_o worth_n of_o your_o soul_n if_o you_o can_v be_v blessing_n of_o god_n for_o spiritual_a blessing_n in_o jesus_n christ_n above_o all_o blessing_n and_o account_v yourselves_o rich_a enough_o if_o you_o have_v the_o riches_n of_o spiritual_a blessing_n and_o then_o further_o oh_o if_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v so_o precious_a what_o great_a pity_n be_v it_o that_o god_n shall_v not_o have_v the_o honour_n of_o man_n soul_n of_o such_o a_o noble_a and_o excellent_a creature_n it_o be_v great_a pity_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o creature_n under_o the_o sun_n that_o god_n shall_v not_o have_v the_o honour_n of_o that_o god_n shall_v not_o have_v honour_n from_o every_o pile_n of_o grass_n from_o every_o bit_n of_o bread_n that_o be_v eat_v from_o every_o stone_n in_o the_o street_n but_o now_o that_o god_n shall_v give_v to_o mankind_n such_o a_o excellent_a spirit_n a_o soul_n more_o precious_a than_o all_o the_o world_n and_o yet_o that_o god_n shall_v not_o have_v the_o glory_n of_o this_o oh_o this_o be_v a_o evil_a thing_n under_o the_o sun_n indeed_o this_o must_v needs_o go_v to_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n for_o the_o truth_n be_v god_n have_v his_o glory_n from_o all_o other_o creature_n by_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n as_o for_o other_o creature_n he_o have_v his_o glory_n but_o passive_o from_o they_o but_o for_o man_n soul_n he_o do_v expect_v to_o have_v his_o glory_n active_o from_o that_o that_o man_n by_o his_o soul_n shall_v come_v to_o know_v this_o god_n the_o infinite_a first-being_a of_o all_o thing_n shall_v fear_v he_o and_o worship_v he_o and_o serve_v he_o and_o have_v communion_n with_o he_o and_o praise_v he_o and_o therefore_o david_n in_o psal_n 103._o my_o soul_n praise_n thou_o the_o lord_n and_o all_o that_o be_v within_o i_o praise_v his_o holy_a name_n and_o again_o he_o conclude_v my_o soul_n praise_n thou_o the_o lord_n and_o so_o in_o psal_n 104._o now_o upon_o the_o consideration_n of_o what_o have_v be_v say_v of_o the_o excellency_n of_o our_o soul_n we_o shall_v lay_v a_o charge_n upon_o they_o that_o they_o do_v honour_n god_n and_o serve_v god_n what_o a_o sad_a charge_n will_v this_o be_v to_o many_o a_o man_n at_o the_o great_a day_n when_o god_n shall_v say_v have_v thou_o be_v make_v a_o dog_n i_o never_o have_v have_v so_o much_o dishonour_n as_o i_o have_v have_v i_o shall_v have_v have_v more_o honour_n if_o i_o have_v make_v thou_o a_o dog_n there_o i_o shall_v have_v have_v my_o honour_n passive_o and_o no_o dishonour_n from_o thou_o but_o now_o thou_o be_v make_v a_o immortal_a soul_n as_o it_o be_v capable_a of_o honour_v i_o so_o of_o sin_v against_o i_o the_o more_o excellent_a a_o thing_n be_v the_o more_o capable_a of_o evil_n it_o be_v as_o well_o as_o of_o good_a no_o creature_n but_o angel_n and_o man_n be_v able_a to_o sin_n against_o god_n oh_o it_o be_v pity_n that_o god_n shall_v not_o have_v the_o honour_n of_o thy_o immortal_a soul_n god_n have_v more_o honour_n from_o nabuchadnezzar_n when_o he_o be_v drive_v out_o among_o the_o beast_n than_o when_o he_o sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n as_o a_o king_n and_o then_o further_o that_o shall_v have_v be_v another_o use_n to_o have_v labour_v to_o persuade_v you_o to_o take_v heed_n of_o dishonour_v these_o soul_n of_o you_o god_n have_v put_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o glory_n and_o excellency_n upon_o they_o do_v not_o you_o dishonour_v they_o and_o many_o way_n shall_v have_v be_v say_v how_o man_n do_v put_v dishonour_n upon_o their_o soul_n only_o for_o the_o conclusion_n oh_o that_o you_o will_v but_o learn_v to_o love_v your_o own_o soul_n to_o love_v they_o it_o be_v a_o strange_a exhortation_n you_o will_v say_v to_o exhort_v man_n to_o love_v their_o soul_n oh_o that_o you_o will_v but_o do_v it_o psal_n 22._o david_n call_v his_o soul_n his_o darling_n the_o soul_n of_o man_n shall_v be_v indeed_o their_o darling_n not_o their_o body_n it_o be_v a_o speech_n of_o a_o courtier_n to_o his_o friend_n say_v he_o i_o love_v you_o as_o i_o own_o soul_n oh_o say_v he_o than_o you_o love_v i_o not_o at_o all_o if_o you_o have_v say_v you_o have_v love_v i_o as_o your_o body_n than_o i_o shall_v have_v think_v you_o have_v love_v i_o but_o i_o see_v no_o love_n you_o have_v to_o your_o soul_n it_o be_v the_o prayer_n of_o the_o apostle_n st._n john_n in_o the_o epistle_n that_o he_o write_v to_o his_o host_n gaius_n i_o suppose_v you_o that_o know_v scripture_n be_v not_o unacquainted_a with_o it_o in_o his_o three_o epistle_n belove_v i_o wish_v above_o all_o thing_n that_o thou_o may_v prosper_v and_o be_v in_o health_n even_o as_o thy_o soul_n prosper_v i_o shall_v close_v all_o i_o intend_v for_o the_o present_a with_o this_o scripture_n it_o seem_v that_o gaius_n be_v a_o holy_a man_n but_o a_o man_n of_o a_o weak_o and_o sick_a body_n and_o therefore_o st._n john_n write_v to_o he_o he_o pray_v thus_o above_o all_o thing_n i_o desire_v that_o thy_o body_n may_v but_o prosper_v as_o thy_o soul_n prosper_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v o_o gaius_n thou_o have_v a_o excellent_a gracious_a soul_n endue_v with_o admirable_a grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n full_a of_o god_n thy_o soul_n be_v though_o thy_o body_n be_v weak_o oh_o that_o thou_o have_v but_o as_o good_a a_o body_n as_o thou_o have_v a_o soul_n it_o seem_v gaius_n have_v more_o care_n of_o his_o soul_n a_o great_a deal_n than_o of_o his_o body_n but_o now_o my_o brethren_n consider_v this_o will_v not_o this_o be_v a_o curse_n to_o

of_o rejection_n of_o jesus_n christ_n must_v needs_o be_v a_o dreadful_a sin_n because_o jesus_n christ_n be_v so_o great_a a_o wonder_n as_o you_o have_v hear_v the_o six_o sermon_n on_o the_o excellency_n of_o christ_n isaiah_n 9.6_o and_o his_o name_n shall_v be_v call_v wonderful_a now_o we_o come_v to_o the_o application_n of_o all_o which_o be_v the_o work_n of_o this_o exercise_n application_n application_n first_o certain_o jesus_n christ_n be_v little_o know_v in_o the_o world_n if_o this_o be_v he_o this_o great_a wonder_n of_o the_o world_n oh_o how_o little_a be_v christ_n know_v christ_n be_v but_o a_o mere_a notion_n and_o imagination_n to_o most_o people_n in_o the_o world_n you_o hear_v the_o very_a sound_n of_o this_o name_n and_o how_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o save_v sinner_n but_o i_o appeal_v unto_o your_o conscience_n when_o be_v your_o heart_n take_v with_o the_o admiration_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n shine_v in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n have_v christ_n be_v make_v the_o great_a wonder_n in_o the_o world_n unto_o you_o some_o of_o you_o have_v see_v many_o wondrous_a work_n of_o god_n some_o of_o you_o perhaps_o in_o the_o sea_n or_o abroad_o in_o other_o country_n or_o if_o not_o there_o yet_o you_o have_v see_v the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n at_o which_o you_o many_o time_n wonder_v but_o when_o do_v god_n dart_n light_n into_o your_o spirit_n to_o cause_v you_o to_o see_v so_o much_o of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o make_v he_o to_o be_v the_o great_a wonder_n of_o all_o his_o work_n certain_o that_o soul_n know_v not_o god_n nor_o christ_n saving_o that_o know_v he_o not_o as_o the_o wonder_n of_o the_o world_n it_o be_v impossible_a that_o such_o a_o poor_a creature_n as_o man_n be_v shall_v come_v to_o understand_v such_o great_a mystery_n of_o godliness_n as_o be_v in_o christ_n in_o any_o measure_n but_o must_v needs_o admire_v at_o the_o glory_n of_o that_o great_a work_n and_o say_v with_o acclamation_n oh_o the_o height_n and_o depth_n and_o breadth_n and_o length_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n his_o wisdom_n and_o mercy_n and_o truth_n and_o power_n many_o note_n of_o trial_n there_o may_v be_v of_o faith_n but_o i_o know_v not_o any_o one_o more_o familiar_a than_o this_o be_v at_o least_o negative_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o true_a note_n that_o be_v that_o there_o can_v be_v faith_n without_o it_o namely_o if_o the_o heart_n have_v not_o be_v take_v up_o with_o the_o wonder_n of_o christ_n so_o as_o all_o the_o wonder_n in_o the_o world_n have_v be_v darken_v in_o the_o soul_n in_o comparison_n of_o jesus_n christ_n second_o if_o christ_n be_v so_o great_a a_o wonder_n then_o o_o how_o vile_a a_o thing_n be_v it_o for_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n to_o prefer_v any_o base_a filthy_a lust_n before_o jesus_n christ_n when_o god_n have_v manifest_v he_o in_o that_o wonderful_a way_n unto_o the_o child_n of_o man_n and_o so_o much_o of_o his_o glory_n in_o he_o yet_o that_o their_o heart_n shall_v be_v take_v off_o from_o he_o and_o every_o base_a lust_n to_o be_v prefer_v before_o he_o oh_o how_o just_a must_v the_o condemnation_n of_o such_o bee_n for_o ever_o we_o may_v take_v up_o that_o complaint_n that_o there_o be_v in_o psal_n 106.7_o 106.7_o psal_n 106.7_o our_o father_n understand_v not_o thy_o wonder_n say_v the_o

be_v prefer_v before_o he_o with_o what_o infinite_a indignation_n must_v god_n needs_o look_v upon_o that_o wretched_a soul_n that_o shall_v prefer_v every_o base_a lust_n before_o jesus_n christ_n i_o remember_v a_o speech_n of_o chrysostome_n speak_v of_o that_o text_n that_o our_o vile_a body_n shall_v be_v make_v like_o unto_o the_o glorious_a body_n of_o christ_n say_v he_o be_v all_o the_o world_n turn_v into_o tear_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o lament_v the_o misery_n of_o that_o soul_n that_o forsake_v jesus_n christ_n his_o heart_n be_v so_o much_o take_v with_o the_o excellency_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o he_o think_v it_o impossible_a to_o lament_v the_o misery_n of_o the_o creature_n that_o shall_v forsake_v he_o and_o so_o st._n paul_n have_v his_o heart_n

maran-atha_a as_o if_o st._n paul_n shall_v say_v have_v his_o spirit_n fill_v with_o the_o glory_n of_o christ_n oh_o what_o shall_v god_n manifest_v so_o much_o of_o his_o glory_n in_o his_o son_n and_o shall_v base_a wretched_a vile_a creature_n prefer_v their_o lust_n before_o he_o and_o have_v their_o heart_n take_v up_o with_o other_o vain_a thing_n and_o not_o love_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n let_v that_o soul_n be_v curse_v with_o a_o bitter_a curse_n say_v paul_n such_o a_o soul_n do_v deserve_v indeed_o to_o be_v curse_v with_o a_o bitter_a and_o a_o eternal_a curse_n that_o shall_v hear_v so_o much_o of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o how_o god_n have_v reveal_v himself_o in_o that_o wonderful_a way_n in_o his_o son_n and_o yet_o that_o soul_n shall_v not_o be_v willing_a to_o

in_o a_o natural_a way_n as_o now_o if_o congregation_n meet_v they_o must_v meet_v in_o some_o place_n they_o must_v have_v civil_a order_n in_o their_o meeting_n there_o may_v be_v some_o thing_n

unto_o i_o here_o lie_v the_o evil_a of_o man_n invention_n when_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o invention_n of_o man_n that_o shall_v come_v instead_o of_o a_o spiritual_a ordinance_n that_o shall_v be_v set_v by_o man_n institution_n and_o have_v more_o put_v upon_o it_o than_o it_o have_v in_o a_o natural_a and_o civil_a way_n to_o be_v helpful_a why_o then_o it_o come_v to_o be_v

than_o it_o come_v to_o be_v sinful_a and_o wicked_a when_o i_o think_v that_o by_o any_o thing_n of_o man_n appointment_n god_n shall_v come_v near_o to_o i_o or_o my_o heart_n shall_v be_v draw_v
