christ_n and_o if_o he_o utter_v his_o voice_n within_o thou_o and_o say_v unto_o thou_o turn_v unto_o i_o and_o live_v thou_o can_v not_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v he_o and_o so_o the_o flesh_n vail_v thou_o and_o imbondage_v thou_o by_o the_o secret_a work_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n for_o now_o people_n cry_v how_o be_v we_o in_o bondage_n to_o the_o thing_n that_o if_o i_o can_v tell_v what_o to_o do_v i_o will_v never_o go_v to_o the_o worship_n that_o now_o be_v observe_v it_o be_v such_o a_o bondage_n to_o i_o and_o such_o a_o burden_n upon_o i_o that_o it_o make_v i_o to_o mourn_v under_o it_o but_o what_o shall_v i_o do_v the_o law_n require_v it_o and_o i_o want_v strength_n to_o stand_v against_o it_o i_o will_v willing_o deny_v it_o if_o i_o can_v do_v it_o and_o not_o come_v into_o suffering_n but_o i_o must_v either_o do_v it_o or_o else_o i_o shall_v bring_v myself_o into_o trouble_n now_o consider_v what_o be_v it_o that_o convince_v thou_o that_o the_o present_a worship_n be_v not_o in_o the_o truth_n and_o what_o be_v it_o that_o be_v burden_a with_o it_o and_o will_v be_v free_a from_o it_o and_o what_o be_v it_o that_o reason_v for_o safety_n and_o can_v deny_v it_o read_v this_o distinction_n and_o then_o thou_o will_v plain_o see_v that_o thou_o creat_a thy_o own_o bondage_n by_o give_v way_n to_o thy_o own_o reason_n for_o that_o which_o manifest_v the_o worship_n to_o be_v out_o of_o the_o truth_n that_o be_v the_o light_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o which_o be_v burden_a with_o it_o that_o be_v the_o righteous_a seed_n of_o god_n but_o that_o which_o reason_n for_o safety_n that_o be_v the_o flesh_n and_o thou_o enter_v into_o conference_n with_o flesh_n and_o blood_n 〈◊〉_d go_v from_o christ_n the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o so_o thou_o have_v neither_o strength_n nor_o power_n to_o deny_v and_o separate_v from_o that_o which_o be_v the_o burden_n of_o the_o seed_n and_o then_o thou_o seek_v out_o excuse_n in_o thy_o reason_n and_o something_o will_v be_v take_v care_n for_o wife_n child_n and_o estate_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o life_n and_o reason_n will_v be_v ready_a to_o say_v if_o i_o shall_v deny_v and_o separate_v i_o shall_v be_v deprive_v of_o my_o liberty_n and_o lose_v my_o estate_n and_o so_o become_v a_o sufferer_n and_o i_o have_v better_o undergo_v the_o burden_n than_o expose_v myself_o to_o suffer_v and_o though_o i_o do_v conform_v yet_o my_o mind_n not_o agree_v in_o performance_n i_o hope_v it_o will_v not_o be_v charge_v upon_o i_o as_o sin_n oh_o take_v heed_n for_o this_o be_v a_o great_a danger_n than_o the_o danger_n of_o suffering_n or_o loss_n of_o thy_o estate_n for_o if_o thou_o by_o such_o reason_n think_v to_o save_v thy_o own_o life_n thou_o lose_v life_n eternal_a and_o that_o will_v be_v a_o great_a loss_n unto_o thou_o then_o the_o loss_n of_o all_o thing_n in_o this_o world_n and_o therefore_o let_v not_o such_o thing_n prevail_v over_o thou_o for_o they_o will_v embodage_n thou_o and_o cause_v thou_o to_o go_v heavy_o and_o if_o thou_o love_v any_o thing_n more_o than_o christ_n thou_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o he_o therefore_o thou_o must_v deny_v all_o for_o he_o and_o count_v nothing_o too_o dear_a to_o offer_v up_o which_o he_o require_v of_o thou_o but_o let_v husband_n and_o wife_n go_v and_o child_n go_v and_o house_n and_o land_n go_v to_o follow_v christ_n and_o yet_o love_v thy_o wife_n and_o husband_n and_o child_n in_o their_o place_n and_o use_v thy_o house_n and_o land_n in_o their_o place_n for_o in_o their_o place_n they_o be_v good_a and_o comfortable_a but_o if_o they_o lie_v in_o thy_o way_n for_o follow_v christ_n and_o that_o thereby_o thou_o be_v hinder_v for_o answer_v his_o requiring_n than_o they_o be_v sad_a and_o miserable_a and_o so_o they_o be_v to_o be_v deny_v and_o not_o otherwise_o and_o here_o thou_o will_v find_v strength_n and_o power_n present_a with_o thou_o and_o will_v be_v make_v willing_a to_o deny_v and_o separate_v from_o that_o worship_n which_o thou_o be_v convince_v be_v out_o of_o the_o truth_n and_o which_o be_v thy_o burden_n to_o observe_v if_o thou_o take_v heed_n to_o the_o light_n and_o power_n of_o christ_n in_o thou_o it_o will_v open_v thy_o eye_n to_o look_v over_o a_o prison_n or_o estate_n or_o the_o near_a thing_n that_o be_v unto_o thou_o it_o will_v let_v thou_o see_v that_o which_o be_v beyond_o they_o all_o a_o glorious_a inheritance_n that_o never_o fade_v away_o a_o kingdom_n that_o have_v no_o end_n and_o therefore_o obey_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o thy_o own_o conscience_n bow_v unto_o it_o there_o be_v the_o true_a worship_n a_o worship_n in_o the_o spirit_n a_o worship_n in_o the_o truth_n worship_n god_n there_o all_o you_o that_o desire_v to_o serve_v he_o and_o if_o you_o say_v thus_o we_o will_v do_v but_o we_o want_v strength_n and_o we_o want_v power_n to_o do_v it_o ans_fw-fr oh_o cast_v away_o all_o your_o reason_n and_o wait_v in_o simplicity_n and_o the_o spirit_n will_v help_v you_o therefore_o come_v to_o the_o spirit_n whosoever_o thou_o be_v and_o what_o condition_n soever_o thou_o be_v in_o if_o thy_o sin_n burden_n thou_o come_v to_o the_o spirit_n to_o ease_v thou_o if_o thy_o worship_n burden_v thou_o come_v to_o the_o spirit_n for_o strength_n to_o deny_v it_o and_o then_o thou_o will_v have_v power_n over_o all_o thy_o reason_n and_o all_o thy_o fear_n and_o all_o thy_o doubting_n for_o the_o spirit_n will_v help_v thou_o in_o thy_o great_a strait_n it_o will_v be_v thy_o strength_n in_o weakness_n it_o will_v comfort_v thou_o in_o feebleness_n and_o what_o be_v it_o that_o the_o spirit_n will_v not_o do_v for_o thou_o if_o thou_o love_v it_o and_o come_v unto_o it_o i_o tell_v thou_o from_o true_a experience_n that_o it_o will_v do_v so_o much_o for_o thou_o as_o thou_o need_v do_v nothing_o for_o thyself_o but_o stand_v still_o and_o eye_n the_o moving_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o yield_v thyself_o to_o its_o drawing_n and_o leading_n than_o it_o will_v save_v thou_o from_o sin_n and_o redeem_v thou_o out_o of_o iniquity_n it_o will_v ease_v thou_o of_o thy_o burden_n and_o set_v thou_o free_a in_o the_o liberty_n of_o its_o own_o life_n and_o this_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n spirit_n which_o save_v by_o its_o grace_n and_o therefore_o thy_o strength_n be_v to_o stand_v still_o and_o believe_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o in_o so_o do_v thou_o will_v neither_o want_v strength_n nor_o power_n to_o overcome_v whatsoever_o corruption_n do_v embodage_n thou_o but_o the_o spirit_n will_v release_v thou_o and_o give_v thou_o dominion_n to_o reign_v and_o rejoice_v over_o thy_o enemy_n which_o have_v reign_v and_o rejoice_v over_o thou_o and_o now_o you_o that_o be_v pant_v and_o hunger_a after_o the_o live_a refreshment_n come_v you_o also_o to_o the_o spirit_n that_o you_o in_o the_o spirit_n may_v be_v comfort_v for_o god_n regard_v your_o breathe_n and_o your_o tenderness_n be_v before_o he_o therefore_o be_v not_o you_o afraid_a to_o come_v because_o you_o be_v weak_a and_o because_o you_o be_v feeble_a and_o because_o you_o see_v some_o fail_n and_o so_o mourn_v at_o the_o sight_n of_o they_o and_o judge_v yourselves_o unworthy_a to_o come_v o_o let_v not_o these_o thing_n discourage_v you_o but_o come_v though_o weak_a come_v though_o feeble_a come_v though_o thou_o see_v some_o fail_n it_o be_v the_o spirit_n must_v give_v thou_o strength_n it_o be_v the_o spirit_n must_v give_v thou_o comfort_n it_o be_v the_o spirit_n must_v overcome_v thy_o fail_n therefore_o come_v and_o delay_v not_o and_o as_o thou_o come_v unto_o it_o then_o deny_v thyself_o and_o follow_v it_o and_o let_v not_o thy_o eye_n look_v any_o other_o way_n nor_o to_o any_o other_o thing_n so_o in_o the_o live_a spirit_n thou_o will_v worship_v the_o live_a god_n who_o be_v a_o spirit_n and_o there_o thou_o will_v feel_v his_o presence_n his_o virtue_n and_o goodness_n and_o that_o will_v answer_v thy_o breathe_n and_o satisfy_v thy_o hungring_n and_o through_o the_o nourishment_n of_o the_o spirit_n thou_o will_v grow_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o live_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o then_o there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n unto_o thou_o therefore_o let_v every_o one_o come_v to_o the_o spirit_n and_o be_v save_v for_o the_o lord_n wait_v to_o show_v mercy_n he_o be_v pull_v down_o the_o birth_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o raise_v up_o the_o birth_n of_o his_o seed_n and_o he_o be_v dear_a and_o tender_a over_o it_o wheresoever_o it_o breathe_v and_o therefore_o to_o the_o babe_n he_o say_v come_v and_o to_o the_o poor_a and_o needy_a he_o say_v come_v i_o will_v in_o no_o wise_a cast_v thou_o off_o and_o as_o this_o be_v his_o voice_n to_o the_o babe_n of_o innocency_n even_o so_o he_o say_v to_o the_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n depart_v from_o i_o i_o know_v thou_o not_o and_o here_o be_v a_o distinction_n in_o the_o invitation_n unto_o the_o true_a birth_n he_o say_v come_v unto_o the_o false_a birth_n he_o say_v depart_v therefore_o let_v the_o wicked_a forsake_v his_o way_n and_o the_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n depart_v from_o his_o iniquity_n then_o let_v the_o babe_n of_o innocency_n draw_v nigh_o and_o come_v for_o thou_o be_v the_o babe_n which_o be_v tender_v and_o therefore_o come_v in_o the_o drawing_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o drink_v of_o the_o water_n of_o life_n free_o for_o the_o fountain_n be_v open_a unto_o thou_o that_o thou_o may_v

the_o spirit_n voice_n obey_v its_o teach_n yield_v to_o its_o drawing_n and_o so_o come_v to_o the_o church_n in_o the_o spirit_n the_o ministry_n in_o the_o spirit_n the_o worship_n in_o the_o spirit_n the_o unity_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o serve_v god_n in_o the_o spirit_n in_o which_o there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n and_o there_o the_o good_a shepherd_n will_v lead_v you_o and_o his_o voice_n you_o will_v know_v from_o the_o voice_n of_o stranger_n therefore_o harken_v and_o obey_v this_o be_v your_o day_n come_v yea_o let_v it_o be_v now_o and_o put_v it_o not_o off_o to_o
