any_o thing_n so_o we_o fear_v the_o contrary_a let_v we_o but_o mortify_v our_o love_n to_o the_o creature_n and_o we_o shall_v mortify_v the_o fear_n of_o the_o creature_n 2._o let_v we_o get_v and_o keep_v our_o interest_n in_o god_n and_o that_o will_v keep_v we_o from_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o creature_n 3._o let_v we_o labour_n to_o see_v clear_o that_o the_o cause_n we_o be_v in_o be_v god_n cause_n 4._o look_v to_o the_o call_v of_o that_o cause_n though_o the_o cause_n be_v good_a if_o we_o have_v not_o as_o all_o to_o that_o cause_n we_o can_v be_v help_v against_o fear_n 5._o labour_n to_o bring_v your_o heart_n to_o count_v it_o honour_n and_o riches_n and_o pleasure_n enough_o to_o be_v employ_v in_o god_n service_n any_o way_n whatsoever_o come_v of_o it_o if_o i_o shall_v endure_v such_o and_o such_o trouble_n in_o it_o yet_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v do_v god_n call_v for_o my_o estate_n and_o liberty_n and_o comfort_n to_o be_v employ_v this_o way_n and_o that_o be_v enough_o that_o any_o thing_n i_o have_v may_v be_v employ_v in_o god_n way_n and_o if_o it_o be_v lose_v in_o god_n service_n it_o be_v well_o lose_v if_o the_o heart_n be_v bring_v to_o this_o disposition_n it_o will_v not_o fear_v the_o loss_n of_o any_o thing_n 6._o keep_v the_o conscience_n upright_o in_o god_n way_n job_n 11.14.15_o if_o iniquity_n be_v in_o thy_o hand_n put_v it_o far_o from_o thou_o and_o let_v not_o wickedness_n dwell_v in_o thy_o tabernacle_n for_o then_o shall_v thou_o lift_v up_o thy_o face_n without_o spot_n yea_o thou_o shall_v be_v steadfast_a and_o not_o fear_v when_o the_o heart_n begin_v to_o decline_v in_o the_o least_o degree_n than_o it_o be_v fill_v with_o fear_n 7._o keep_v a_o close_a and_o full_a and_o comfortable_a communion_n one_o with_o another_o let_v there_o be_v no_o fear_n with_o one_o another_o as_o that_o be_v a_o notable_a place_n 1_o cor._n 16.10_o concern_v the_o care_n of_o saint_n paul_n over_o timothy_n because_o he_o be_v young_a and_o so_o weak_a that_o he_o may_v be_v with_o the_o church_n without_o fear_n as_o a_o mean_n to_o help_v timothy_n in_o his_o way_n against_o whatsoever_o trouble_v he_o meet_v abroad_o so_o whatsoever_o danger_n there_o be_v abroad_o in_o the_o world_n you_o will_v find_v this_o a_o notable_a mean_n to_o strengthen_v your_o heart_n to_o be_v without_o fear_n of_o all_o the_o world_n to_o keep_v close_o one_o with_o another_o 8._o if_o you_o will_v needs_o fear_v fear_v prosperity_n rather_o than_o trouble_v and_o indeed_o there_o be_v more_o cause_n to_o fear_v our_o ease_n and_o our_o prosperity_n then_o to_o fear_v any_o trouble_n in_o the_o world_n there_o be_v more_o cause_n to_o fear_v the_o favour_n of_o man_n than_o their_o threaten_n there_o be_v more_o cause_n to_o fear_v the_o world_n when_o it_o come_v like_o a_o fox_n then_o when_o it_o come_v like_o a_o lion_n the_o joy_n of_o this_o present_a world_n be_v to_o be_v fear_v by_o a_o christian_a now_o christian_n fear_v altogether_o present_a adversity_n but_o you_o shall_v labour_v to_o fear_v prosperity_n 9_o last_o consider_v how_o little_a good_a fear_v of_o any_o creature_n will_v do_v it_o will_v never_o a_o whit_n free_v you_o from_o the_o evil_a you_o fear_v but_o rather_o bring_v it_o soon_o as_o when_o peter_n be_v afraid_a of_o the_o wave_n and_o afraid_a of_o sink_v do_v it_o help_v he_o no_o it_o rather_o bring_v the_o wave_n upon_o he_o and_o so_o in_o trouble_n your_o fear_n can_v help_v you_o and_o deliver_v you_o but_o bring_v trouble_v soon_o upon_o you_o and_o therefore_o that_o be_v a_o observable_a note_n the_o difference_n between_o john_n and_o the_o other_o disciple_n when_o christ_n be_v apprehend_v all_o the_o disciple_n flee_v except_o john_n and_o john_n stand_v when_o he_o be_v in_o the_o priest_n hall_n and_o when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o cross_n he_o say_v to_o he_o behold_v thy_o mother_n so_o that_o he_o be_v not_o afraid_a of_o his_o life_n now_o their_o be_v not_o one_o of_o all_o the_o disciple_n that_o flee_v for_o there_o live_v but_o die_v violent_a death_n and_o their_o life_n be_v take_v away_o and_o john_n that_o do_v not_o flee_v live_v fourscore_o year_n after_o christ_n and_o continue_v in_o his_o ministry_n so_o that_o you_o see_v god_n many_o time_n will_v preserve_v such_o as_o be_v least_o afraid_a and_o let_v such_o as_o be_v afraid_a fall_n into_o the_o trouble_n that_o they_o be_v afraid_a of_o at_o that_o time_n they_o be_v afraid_a or_o afterward_o and_o thus_o we_o have_v finish_v the_o second_o doctrinal_a conclusion_n from_o these_o word_n that_o faith_n cure_v sinful_a fear_n chap._n 14_o another_o doctrine_n much_o difference_n between_o god_n people_n spirit_n at_o several_a time_n illustrate_v by_o example_n reason_n 1._o from_o the_o different_a disposition_n their_o heart_n be_v in_o to_o receive_v truth_n which_o proceed_v from_o three_o cause_n first_o the_o abatement_n of_o the_o strength_n that_o be_v opposite_a to_o that_o truth_n second_o the_o stir_n or_o activity_n of_o those_o habit_n which_o be_v suitable_a to_o truth_n three_o the_o prevalence_n of_o self-interest_n reas_n 2._o from_o the_o different_a representation_n of_o truth_n reas_n 3._o because_o the_o grace_n of_o man_n do_v not_o burn_v so_o clear_o and_o pure_o at_o all_o time_n reas_n 4._o from_o the_o weakness_n of_o grace_n the_o part_n and_o member_n of_o it_o be_v not_o consolidate_v reas_n 5._o because_o our_o heart_n be_v sometime_o fill_v with_o more_o heavenly_a consolation_n then_o at_o other_o time_n reas_n 6._o from_o the_o different_a breathe_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n reas_n 7._o because_o man_n have_v sometime_o a_o more_o clear_a and_o distinct_a sight_n of_o their_o call_n to_o suffer_v then_o at_o other_o time_n 3._o particular_a direction_n in_o this_o case_n reas_n 8._o the_o different_a temper_n of_o man_n body_n reas_n 9_o from_o the_o difference_n in_o the_o encourage_n occurrency_n of_o god_n providence_n we_o come_v now_o to_o the_o next_o doctrinal_a conclusion_n which_o be_v raise_v from_o hence_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o moses_n be_v afraid_a he_o do_v forsake_v egypt_n out_o of_o fear_n now_o moses_n by_o faith_n do_v forsake_v egypt_n and_o be_v not_o afraid_a the_o point_n be_v doct._n there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o difference_n between_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n people_n at_o some_o time_n from_o that_o they_o be_v at_o other_o time_n now_o moses_n seem_v to_o have_v further_a courage_n and_o strength_n then_o former_o we_o have_v many_o example_n in_o scripture_n and_o daily_a experience_n of_o this_o that_o there_o be_v a_o wonderful_a difference_n between_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n people_n at_o sometime_o and_o at_o other_o time_n as_o elijah_n be_v a_o man_n of_o mighty_a courage_n that_o can_v look_v ahab_n on_o the_o face_n and_o when_o ahab_n say_v be_v thou_o he_o that_o trouble_v israel_n nay_o say_v he_o it_o be_v thou_o and_o thy_o father_n house_n at_o another_o time_n he_o flee_v from_o jezebel_n and_o god_n say_v to_o he_o what_o do_v thou_o here_o elijah_n be_v thou_o flee_v from_o a_o woman_n that_o but_o the_o other_o day_n have_v such_o a_o courage_n and_o so_o david_n there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o david_n be_v afraid_a and_o behave_v himself_o with_o much_o folly_n in_o his_o fear_n as_o in_o the_o change_n of_o his_o behaviour_n before_o the_o king_n of_o gath_n at_o another_o time_n as_o in_o psalm_n 23._o he_o will_v not_o fear_v what_o man_n can_v do_v unto_o he_o though_o he_o walk_v in_o the_o valley_n of_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n and_o so_o in_o many_o psalm_n you_o have_v his_o heart_n mighty_o deject_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o psalm_n and_o before_o he_o have_v do_v mighty_o raise_v and_o so_o abraham_n sometime_o he_o have_v mighty_a strength_n and_o confidence_n of_o his_o faith_n at_o other_o time_n his_o faith_n fail_v he_o and_o he_o be_v fain_o to_o equivocate_v and_o shift_v for_o himself_o and_o so_o jeremiah_n god_n say_v he_o will_v make_v he_o as_o a_o brazen_a wall_n and_o he_o will_v give_v he_o a_o spirit_n of_o courage_n at_o another_o time_n jeremiah_n be_v mighty_o deject_v because_o of_o the_o reproach_n he_o meet_v withal_o and_o he_o will_v speak_v no_o more_o in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n unto_o the_o people_n and_o so_o peter_n there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o he_o be_v afraid_a of_o a_o poor_a damsel_n at_o other_o time_n who_o so_o bold_a as_o peter_n as_o in_o act_n 2.14_o and_o so_o joseph_n of_o arimathea_n he_o be_v a_o disciple_n of_o christ_n but_o secret_o for_o fear_v of_o the_o jew_n but_o afterward_o he_o come_v bold_o and_o beg_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n at_o
it_o prevail_v mighty_o because_o the_o heart_n be_v engage_v in_o god_n and_o his_o truth_n and_o indeed_o if_o so_o be_v we_o do_v understand_v aright_o we_o shall_v see_v more_o of_o our_o own_o good_a to_o consist_v in_o god_n then_o in_o ourselves_o and_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n and_o principle_n of_o self_n denial_n when_o as_o the_o soul_n shall_v come_v to_o see_v my_o good_a be_v more_o in_o god_n then_o in_o myself_o and_o therefore_o i_o will_v deny_v my_o good_a and_o comfort_n so_o far_o as_o it_o be_v in_o myself_o and_o i_o will_v seek_v my_o good_a and_o comfort_n in_o god_n and_o indeed_o no_o man_n in_o the_o world_n seek_v themselves_o more_o than_o the_o godly_a only_o the_o one_o seek_v himself_o in_o himself_o and_o the_o other_o seek_v himself_o in_o god_n the_o one_o be_v engage_v to_o his_o self-end_n and_o self-praise_n and_o the_o other_o make_v himself_o only_o engage_v in_o god_n and_o when_o a_o man_n come_v to_o be_v thus_o engage_v in_o god_n than_o any_o truth_n prevail_v with_o a_o mighty_a strength_n more_o than_o before_o and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o reason_n which_o be_v a_o principal_a one_o that_o cause_v the_o heart_n to_o be_v at_o a_o different_a condition_n at_o one_o time_n from_o that_o it_o be_v at_o another_o reason_n 2._o the_o second_o reason_n be_v in_o regard_n of_o the_o difference_n of_o their_o presentation_n of_o a_o truth_n though_o when_o we_o be_v indispose_v let_v the_o truth_n come_v never_o so_o powerful_o it_o be_v all_o one_o but_o if_o the_o heart_n be_v fit_a in_o any_o reasonable_a manner_n to_o receive_v a_o truth_n there_o may_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o difference_n in_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o representation_n of_o a_o truth_n sometime_o the_o truth_n come_v more_o clear_o and_o with_o more_o evidence_n more_o particular_o more_o powerful_o sometime_o it_o come_v with_o great_a evidence_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n then_o at_o other_o time_n there_o be_v not_o only_o a_o little_a gloss_n of_o a_o truth_n of_o god_n but_o the_o shine_n of_o it_o that_o a_o man_n can_v shut_v his_o eye_n against_o it_o sometime_o the_o truth_n come_v more_o particular_o to_o the_o heart_n god_n do_v not_o only_o present_v a_o truth_n in_o the_o general_a to_o he_o that_o this_o be_v a_o duty_n christian_n must_v do_v but_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o particular_a frame_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o shall_v meet_v with_o every_o objection_n and_o he_o shall_v find_v the_o secret_n of_o his_o thought_n to_o be_v discover_v and_o answer_v so_o that_o the_o truth_n shall_v come_v like_o a_o key_n that_o be_v fit_v to_o a_o lock_n if_o you_o bring_v a_o key_n to_o the_o lock_n though_o it_o may_v be_v like_o the_o right_a key_n and_o as_o strong_a a_o key_n as_o the_o right_n be_v yet_o if_o it_o be_v not_o indeed_o the_o right_n if_o it_o miss_v but_o in_o one_o ward_n of_o the_o lock_n never_o so_o little_a you_o may_v spoil_v both_o the_o lock_n and_o the_o key_n but_o you_o can_v open_v the_o lock_n though_o you_o have_v never_o so_o much_o strength_n but_o come_v with_o a_o key_n suit_v to_o that_o lock_n and_o do_v but_o turn_v it_o and_o it_o open_v present_o so_o when_o it_o please_v god_n to_o come_v with_o his_o truth_n to_o our_o soul_n we_o be_v backward_o and_o we_o hear_v many_o truth_n but_o they_o do_v not_o meet_v with_o all_o our_o objection_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v stop_v with_o some_o one_o or_o other_o but_o afterward_o it_o please_v god_n so_o to_o dispose_v of_o thing_n and_o to_o bring_v the_o truth_n so_o full_o to_o the_o heart_n as_o it_o meet_v with_o every_o objection_n and_o then_o the_o heart_n quiet_o yield_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v god_n open_v lydias_n heart_n paul_n preach_v to_o other_o and_o have_v much_o wring_v with_o they_o and_o can_v not_o prevail_v but_o saint_n paul_n come_v to_o lydia_n and_o he_o prevail_v present_o because_o god_n do_v so_o dispose_v of_o lydias_n heart_n as_o it_o be_v fit_v to_o the_o truth_n saint_n paul_n speak_v of_o as_o many_o when_o they_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n can_v but_o say_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n have_v meet_v with_o i_o in_o every_o particular_a and_o i_o have_v no_o secret_a object_n on_o in_o my_o heart_n but_o it_o be_v answer_v sometime_o the_o truth_n come_v more_o powerful_o then_o at_o other_o time_n as_o in_o isaiah_n 8.11_o for_o the_o lord_n speak_v thus_o to_o i_o with_o a_o strong_a hand_n &_o instruct_v i_o that_o i_o shall_v not_o walk_v in_o the_o way_n of_o this_o people_n god_n do_v not_o only_o tell_v the_o prophet_n his_o duty_n but_o he_o speak_v with_o a_o strong_a hand_n so_o when_o god_n come_v sometime_o he_o tell_v you_o what_o you_o ought_v to_o do_v but_o he_o do_v not_o always_o come_v with_o a_o strong_a hand_n as_o sometime_o he_o do_v job_n 36.10_o he_o open_v also_o their_o ear_n to_o discipline_n and_o command_v that_o they_o return_v from_o iniquity_n do_v not_o god_n command_v man_n at_o all_o time_n to_o return_v from_o their_o iniquity_n do_v not_o god_n command_v man_n in_o prosperity_n to_o return_v from_o their_o iniquity_n yes_o but_o in_o the_o time_n of_o affliction_n ordinary_o the_o truth_n come_v with_o more_o command_a power_n than_o he_o seal_v instruction_n as_o in_o job_n 33.16_o when_o people_n come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n they_o hear_v instruction_n to_o do_v such_o and_o such_o duty_n but_o those_o instruction_n do_v not_o come_v with_o command_n they_o be_v not_o seal_v but_o in_o affliction_n god_n seal_v they_o if_o a_o man_n see_v a_o writing_n and_o see_v the_o hand_n of_o other_o to_o it_o it_o be_v something_o to_o persuade_v he_o to_o see_v other_o be_v of_o that_o opinion_n but_o when_o he_o see_v the_o broad_a seal_n to_o it_o than_o it_o come_v with_o authority_n and_o so_o when_o man_n come_v and_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n they_o think_v it_o be_v but_o our_o opinion_n and_o cast_v it_o off_o but_o in_o affliction_n those_o truth_n come_v with_o authority_n and_o have_v the_o seal_n of_o heaven_n upon_o they_o and_o then_o they_o prevail_v you_o have_v other_o manner_n of_o thought_n of_o they_o then_o before_o that_o which_o saint_n paul_n speak_v it_o be_v in_o power_n to_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o people_n and_o they_o can_v not_o resist_v the_o spirit_n wherewith_o stephen_n speak_v because_o he_o be_v full_o of_o faith_n and_o power_n so_o sometime_o god_n speak_v with_o so_o much_o power_n as_o they_o can_v stand_v out_o we_o may_v see_v the_o different_a spirit_n of_o man_n by_o the_o different_a representation_n of_o a_o truth_n in_o ourselves_o or_o in_o other_o sometime_o when_o god_n please_v to_o convince_v we_o and_o work_v upon_o we_o we_o admire_v it_o ourselves_o do_v we_o not_o hear_v these_o thing_n before_o what_o be_v it_o that_o keep_v i_o from_o be_v convince_v i_o never_o be_v stir_v before_o and_o now_o methinks_v there_o be_v such_o mighty_a power_n in_o they_o as_o i_o can_v stand_v against_o they_o what_o be_v the_o matter_n and_o so_o in_o other_o let_v there_o be_v two_o man_n that_o shall_v go_v upon_o the_o same_o principle_n and_o their_o end_n shall_v be_v the_o same_o and_o both_o their_o heart_n shall_v be_v upright_o and_o yet_o they_o can_v yield_v to_o the_o same_o thing_n because_o the_o same_o thing_n be_v present_v to_o the_o one_o one_o way_n and_o he_o see_v it_o clear_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n be_v present_v to_o another_o another_o way_n and_o he_o can_v see_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o shall_v teach_v we_o to_o have_v patience_n when_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o such_o as_o do_v not_o see_v a_o thing_n clear_a as_o when_o we_o come_v to_o a_o lock_n that_o we_o have_v not_o the_o right_a key_n and_o we_o try_v and_o it_o will_v not_o open_a we_o do_v not_o present_o throw_v it_o away_o but_o we_o think_v it_o may_v be_v there_o be_v some_o dust_n in_o it_o we_o pick_v that_o out_o and_o try_v again_o if_o it_o do_v not_o open_a than_o we_o think_v may_v be_v we_o do_v not_o put_v in_o the_o key_n right_a too_o far_o or_o not_o far_o enough_o and_o if_o it_o do_v
