the_o division_n of_o the_o word_n first_o a_o duty_n press_v upon_o we_o by_o a_o most_o serious_a and_o rational_a exhortation_n wherefore_o work_v out_o your_o own_o salvation_n second_o a_o

that_o work_v in_o you_o both_o to_o will_v and_o to_o do_v of_o his_o good_a pleasure_n first_o here_o be_v a_o duty_n press_v upon_o we_o and_o that_o be_v to_o work_v out_o our_o own_o salvation_n to_o explain_v the_o word_n a_o little_a first_o for_o salvation_n you_o may_v take_v it_o for_o the_o whole_a supernatural_a state_n of_o a_o christian_a begin_v here_o in_o grace_n be_v 1._o what_o

imply_v to_o work_v out_o our_o salvation_n therefore_o imply_v three_o thing_n labour_n 1._o pain_n and_o labour_n first_o pain_n and_o labour_n salvation_n be_v that_o which_o must_v be_v wrought_v out_o it_o be_v that_o which_o will_v make_v the_o soul_n pant_v and_o breath_n yea_o run_v down_o with_o sweat_n to_o obtain_v it_o constancy_n 2._o diligence_n and_o constancy_n second_o it_o imply_v constancy_n and_o diligence_n a_o christian_n that_o will_v work_v out_o salvation_n must_v always_o be_v employ_v about_o it_o it_o be_v a_o webb_n into_o which_o we_o must_v weave_v the_o whole_a thread_n of_o our_o life_n that_o man_n that_o work_v at_o salvation_n only_o by_o some_o passionate_a fit_n and_o then_o within_o a_o while_n undo_v it_o all_o again_o by_o foul_a apostasy_n and_o notorious_a sin_n that_o man_n will_v never_o work_v salvation_n out_o no_o it_o must_v be_v diligence_n and_o constancy_n that_o must_v effect_v that_o success_n 3._o success_n three_o it_o promise_v success_n and_o accomplishment_n also_o and_o this_o be_v a_o mighty_a encouragement_n to_o enforce_v the_o exhortation_n though_o the_o work_n be_v difficult_a our_o strength_n little_a the_o enemy_n many_o and_o the_o opposition_n powerful_a yet_o continue_v work_v your_o labour_n shall_v not_o be_v in_o vain_a though_o it_o be_v hard_a work_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v long_a work_n for_o it_o shall_v be_v wrought_v out_o and_o what_o before_o be_v your_o work_n shall_v be_v your_o reward_n and_o what_o before_o be_v your_o labour_n shall_v be_v your_o wage_n and_o this_o salvation_n that_o be_v so_o painful_a in_o work_v shall_v be_v most_o bless_a in_o the_o enjoyment_n second_o here_o be_v the_o express_a way_n and_o manner_n how_o this_o work_n shall_v be_v do_v and_o that_o be_v with_o fear_n and_o tremble_v work_v out_o your_o own_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_v now_o this_o fear_n be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v for_o a_o fear_n of_o diffidence_n perturbation_n or_o despondency_n for_o this_o be_v so_o contrary_a to_o the_o duty_n of_o work_v out_o salvation_n as_o that_o it_o only_o stupefy_v and_o dull_v we_o and_o as_o in_o other_o matter_n so_o in_o spiritual_n it_o hinder_v both_o counsel_n and_o performance_n but_o this_o fear_n and_o tremble_v that_o must_v qualify_v our_o obedience_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o humble_a

so_o far_o from_o be_v inconsistent_a that_o it_o usual_o spring_v from_o it_o and_o be_v build_v upon_o it_o this_o now_o be_v mean_v by_o fear_n and_o tremble_v and_o so_o the_o phrase_n be_v often_o use_v in_o scripture_n so_o the_o psalmist_n 2.12_o psalm_n 2.12_o serve_v the_o lord_n with_o fear_n and_o rejoice_v with_o tremble_v it_o be_v not_o mean_v of_o any_o despond_v diffident_a fear_n but_o only_o of_o a_o awful_a reverential_a fear_n of_o god_n join_v with_o self-abasement_n and_o so_o st._n paul_n to_o the_o corinthian_n say_v of_o titus_n 7.15_o 2_o cor._n 7.15_o that_o he_o be_v receive_v with_o fear_n and_o tremble_v there_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o titus_n come_a shall_v cause_v fear_n and_o tremble_v which_o be_v so_o much_o desire_v only_o the_o meaning_n be_v they_o receive_v he_o with_o fear_n and_o reverence_n and_o so_o servant_n be_v command_v to_o be_v obedient_a unto_o their_o master_n so_o here_o work_v out_o your_o own_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_v 6.5_o ephes_n 6.5_o that_o be_v work_v it_o out_o with_o humility_n self-abasement_n and_o reverence_n three_o here_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o exhortation_n for_o it_o be_v
