shall_v show_v you_o how_o the_o lord_n take_v notice_n special_a notice_n of_o such_o of_o his_o servant_n as_o do_v walk_v close_o with_o he_o in_o divers_a particular_n 1._o first_o of_o all_o the_o lord_n bear_v witness_v to_o they_o and_o he_o bear_v witness_n of_o they_o in_o a_o special_a manner_n i_o say_v the_o lord_n bear_v witness_v to_o they_o and_o bear_v witness_n of_o they_o he_o bear_v witness_n to_o they_o he_o speak_v evident_o clear_o unto_o they_o he_o clear_v up_o their_o evidence_n for_o heaven_n he_o speak_v by_o his_o spirit_n unto_o they_o and_o they_o be_v his_o witness_n in_o the_o world_n they_o bear_v witness_n to_o the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o life_n of_o such_o of_o his_o saint_n bear_v witness_n to_o the_o word_n they_o be_v a_o comment_n a_o exposition_n of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n bear_v witness_v to_o their_o spirit_n they_o have_v special_a work_n to_o do_v for_o god_n in_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o god_n come_v in_o with_o a_o special_a witness_n and_o testimony_n of_o his_o spirit_n with_o they_o that_o he_o may_v strengthen_v they_o and_o carry_v they_o through_o all_o their_o undertake_n which_o be_v for_o god_n paul_n be_v a_o choose_a vessel_n and_o be_v to_o bear_v up_o the_o name_n of_o god_n before_o the_o gentile_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n come_v and_o speak_v unto_o his_o spirit_n in_o a_o special_a manner_n in_o strengthen_v of_o paul_n paul_n fear_v not_o i_o be_o with_o thou_o the_o prophet_n jeremiah_n be_v to_o bear_v witness_n for_o god_n to_o do_v great_a thing_n for_o god_n and_o therefore_o god_n bear_v witness_n to_o his_o spirit_n in_o jer._n 1._o 18._o he_o send_v he_o forth_o and_o tell_v he_o he_o have_v make_v he_o a_o brazen_a wall_n and_o a_o iron_n pillar_n and_o he_o will_v carry_v he_o through_o all_o the_o work_n and_o all_o his_o enemy_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o harm_v he_o they_o wait_v for_o the_o witness_n of_o god_n for_o the_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n their_o soul_n be_v always_o harken_v and_o they_o be_v listen_v what_o god_n shall_v speak_v they_o will_v be_v put_v off_o with_o any_o other_o testimony_n till_o god_n speak_v their_o soul_n be_v not_o satisfy_v god_n therefore_o come_v in_o and_o by_o his_o spirit_n witness_n it_o himself_o he_o write_v their_o evidence_n fair_a and_o write_v it_o with_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n and_o cast_v it_o into_o their_o bosom_n and_o they_o be_v careful_a to_o keep_v their_o evidence_n clear_a when_o god_n have_v once_o give_v it_o out_o to_o they_o they_o be_v careful_a to_o keep_v it_o from_o blot_n and_o blur_n and_o to_o read_v over_o their_o evidence_n in_o christ_n and_o put_v it_o into_o their_o bosom_n there_o be_v nothing_o they_o delight_v in_o but_o in_o read_v it_o again_o and_o again_o and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n do_v witness_v unto_o such_o and_o he_o do_v not_o only_o bear_v witness_n to_o they_o but_o he_o bear_v witness_n of_o they_o a_o high_a honour_n for_o god_n to_o bear_v witness_n of_o poor_a creature_n to_o bear_v witness_n of_o they_o have_v thou_o consider_v my_o servant_n job_n job_n 1._o 1._o god_n give_v witness_v of_o he_o that_o job_n be_v a_o perfect_a and_o upright_a man_n one_o that_o fear_v god_n he_o be_v one_o that_o eschew_v evil_a god_n bear_v witness_n of_o he_o and_o so_o in_o job_n 2._o 3._o the_o lord_n say_v have_v thou_o consider_v my_o servant_n job_n that_o he_o be_v a_o perfect_a and_o upright_a man_n none_o like_o he_o in_o the_o earth_n mark_v what_o a_o high_a testimony_n god_n give_v of_o he_o job_n dare_v not_o say_v so_o of_o himself_o he_o dare_v not_o stand_v upon_o his_o own_o perfection_n he_o dare_v not_o say_v he_o be_v perfect_a but_o god_n say_v so_o his_o friend_n will_v not_o say_v so_o of_o he_o but_o they_o accuse_v he_o and_o say_v he_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n because_o they_o see_v the_o hand_n of_o god_n go_v out_o remarkable_o against_o he_o ay_o but_o god_n bear_v witness_n of_o he_o whatsoever_o his_o friend_n say_v god_n will_v convince_v they_o that_o they_o judge_v with_o unrighteous_a judgement_n therefore_o see_v what_o god_n say_v to_o eliphaz_n the_o temanite_n job_n 42._o 7._o my_o wrath_n be_v kindle_v against_o thou_o and_o against_o thy_o two_o friend_n for_o you_o have_v not_o speak_v of_o i_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v right_a like_o my_o servant_n job_n job_n be_v a_o perfect_a and_o upright_o man_n their_o walk_n with_o god_n be_v hide_v from_o the_o world_n it_o be_v in_o secret_a their_o spirit_n be_v in_o secret_a carry_v after_o god_n which_o be_v the_o choice_a and_o most_o curious_a way_n of_o their_o walk_n with_o he_o in_o the_o world_n they_o see_v not_o and_o can_v eye_v their_o walk_n with_o god_n but_o god_n will_v take_v notice_n of_o what_o they_o have_v do_v for_o he_o in_o secret_a and_o it_o shall_v be_v publish_v upon_o the_o house_n top_n god_n will_v bear_v witness_n of_o such_o of_o his_o servant_n as_o walk_v close_o with_o he_o in_o their_o generation_n he_o will_v bear_v witness_n of_o they_o before_o man_n will_v bear_v witness_n of_o they_o either_o in_o their_o life_n or_o at_o their_o death_n or_o else_o after_o death_n in_o their_o life_n as_o he_o do_v of_o job_n at_o their_o death_n he_o will_v give_v such_o a_o testimony_n of_o they_o at_o death_n as_o shall_v make_v even_o their_o very_a enemy_n wish_v with_o balaam_n oh_o that_o i_o may_v die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a and_o that_o my_o latter_a end_n may_v be_v like_a unto_o he_o and_o then_o he_o will_v bear_v witness_n of_o they_o after_o death_n when_o they_o be_v go_v i_o say_v many_o age_n and_o generation_n after_o they_o be_v dead_a and_o go_v god_n will_v bear_v witness_n of_o they_o as_o in_o heb._n 11._o where_o you_o have_v it_o record_v of_o all_o the_o patriarch_n that_o by_o faith_n they_o please_v god_n and_o thus_o god_n will_v bear_v witness_n of_o such_o of_o his_o servant_n as_o will_v close_v with_o he_o in_o their_o generation_n and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n that_o god_n take_v notice_n of_o in_o they_o so_o as_o to_o bear_v witness_n of_o they_o and_o to_o they_o 2._o but_o again_o second_o god_n set_v up_o such_o of_o his_o servant_n as_o pattern_n to_o other_o for_o they_o to_o imitate_v he_o set_v they_o up_o as_o pattern_n this_o be_v a_o high_a honour_n to_o they_o for_o other_o to_o look_v unto_o they_o be_v the_o very_a image_n of_o god_n they_o be_v the_o very_a image_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o god_n set_v they_o to_o be_v pattern_n to_o be_v imitate_v abraham_n that_o walk_v with_o god_n be_v make_v a_o pattern_n to_o all_o in_o his_o generation_n and_o moses_n a_o pattern_n of_o meekness_n and_o job_n a_o pattern_n of_o patience_n you_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o patience_n of_o job_n and_o therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n james_n 5._o 7._o and_o therefore_o be_v you_o also_o patient_a unto_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n be_v you_o also_o patient_a you_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o patience_n of_o job_n it_o be_v true_a god_n himself_o be_v the_o first_o and_o high_a pattern_n be_v you_o holy_a as_o your_o heavenly_a father_n be_v holy_a be_v you_o perfect_a as_o he_o be_v perfect_a there_o be_v a_o suitableness_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o affection_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o their_o desire_n unto_o this_o pattern_n of_o god_n himself_o which_o be_v set_v before_o they_o for_o as_o the_o perfection_n of_o god_n be_v infinite_a as_o the_o holiness_n of_o god_n be_v infinite_a so_o there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o infiniteness_n in_o their_o desire_n and_o affection_n in_o their_o pursuit_n after_o god_n but_o when_o they_o look_v upon_o their_o act_n and_o attainment_n they_o see_v they_o come_v infinite_o short_a of_o god_n and_o be_v apt_a to_o be_v discourage_v and_o therefore_o now_o the_o lord_n have_v set_v up_o other_o pattern_n for_o his_o weak_a saint_n to_o look_v unto_o and_o therefore_o they_o be_v such_o as_o themselves_o to_o see_v how_o much_o they_o have_v attain_v to_o in_o their_o generation_n you_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o patience_n of_o job_n and_o so_o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n the_o apostle_n tell_v they_o of_o elias_n a_o pattern_n which_o god_n have_v set_v before_o they_o he_o call_v they_o to_o wait_v upon_o god_n by_o prayer_n elias_n though_o a_o man_n subject_n to_o passion_n as_o we_o be_v yet_o he_o pray_v and_o it_o rain_v not_o and_o he_o pray_v again_o and_o it_o do_v rain_v a_o man_n subject_n to_o the_o like_a passion_n as_o you_o be_v

out_o a_o spirit_n of_o burn_a and_o breath_n upon_o the_o same_o word_n with_o command_n that_o spark_n be_v blow_v up_o to_o a_o mighty_a flame_n so_o that_o the_o lord_n speak_v and_o when_o he_o speak_v his_o word_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a when_o he_o speak_v that_o he_o will_v have_v you_o to_o live_v do_v not_o you_o make_v objection_n against_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n do_v not_o say_v we_o be_v dead_a creature_n how_o shall_v we_o live_v consider_v what_o abraham_n do_v it_o be_v say_v he_o consider_v not_o his_o own_o body_n when_o it_o be_v dead_a neither_o the_o deadness_n of_o sarahs_n womb_n he_o do_v not_o look_v upon_o it_o in_o rom._n 4._o 19_o not_o be_v weak_a in_o faith_n it_o be_v say_v he_o consider_v not_o his_o own_o body_n now_o dead_a dead_z as_o to_o generation_n nor_o the_o deadness_n of_o sarahs_n womb_n but_o he_o eye_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o faithfulness_n and_o truth_n of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n he_o look_v to_o the_o all-sufficiency_n of_o that_o god_n which_o have_v promise_v he_o know_v that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v what_o he_o have_v speak_v though_o it_o seem_v never_o so_o unlikely_a unto_o sense_n therefore_o he_o stagger_v not_o at_o the_o promise_n through_o unbelief_n but_o he_o be_v strong_a in_o faith_n give_v glory_n to_o god_n and_o so_o also_o you_o poor_a creature_n do_v not_o look_v so_o much_o upon_o your_o own_o deadness_n but_o know_v that_o god_n can_v out_o of_o very_a stone_n raise_v up_o child_n unto_o abraham_n he_o can_v quicken_v thou_o by_o the_o word_n of_o his_o mouth_n and_o the_o breath_n of_o his_o nostril_n though_o thou_o lie_v before_o he_o as_o adam_n do_v who_o be_v as_o a_o lump_n of_o clay_n liveless_a and_o useless_a but_o the_o lord_n make_v a_o body_n thereof_o and_o make_v it_o to_o become_v a_o live_a body_n though_o thou_o be_v dead_a the_o lord_n can_v breathe_v life_n in_o thou_o by_o the_o word_n of_o his_o spirit_n and_o so_o it_o shall_v burn_v unto_o eternity_n all_o the_o life_n and_o breathe_n and_o motion_n of_o the_o spirit_n after_o the_o lord_n these_o be_v kindle_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n therefore_o look_v not_o so_o much_o after_o thy_o own_o deadness_n but_o look_v to_o the_o faithfulness_n of_o he_o that_o have_v promise_v that_o thou_o may_v not_o stagger_v at_o the_o promise_n through_o unbelief_n object_n but_o i_o be_o not_o only_a without_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n say_v some_o poor_a guilty_a sinner_n but_o i_o have_v be_v a_o enemy_n to_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n i_o have_v oppose_v the_o life_n of_o christ_n both_o in_o my_o own_o soul_n and_o other_o i_o have_v smother_v those_o motion_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o he_o have_v often_o cast_v in_o i_o have_v persecute_v the_o appearance_n of_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n in_o other_o and_o the_o lord_n cause_v i_o to_o lie_v under_o the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o guilt_n of_o it_o and_o now_o i_o be_o ready_a to_o think_v and_o conclude_v that_o i_o be_o cast_v out_o of_o sight_n the_o time_n of_o life_n be_v past_a and_o the_o lord_n have_v for_o ever_o exclude_v i_o and_o shut_v i_o under_o death_n darkness_n and_o horror_n i_o shall_v not_o see_v the_o life_n of_o christ_n answ_n why_o even_o to_o thou_o let_v i_o say_v that_o eternal_a life_n be_v the_o free_a gift_n of_o god_n i_o say_v this_o life_n be_v the_o free_a gift_n of_o god_n there_o be_v no_o gift_n more_o free_a than_o this_o life_n which_o god_n do_v impart_v unto_o poor_a sinner_n it_o be_v say_v when_o christ_n ascend_v up_o on_o high_a he_o lead_v captivity_n captive_a and_o he_o receive_v gift_n for_o man_n even_o for_o the_o rebellious_a also_o that_o god_n may_v dwell_v among_o they_o christ_n receive_v life_n for_o rebel_n he_o receive_v gift_n for_o rebel_n and_o this_o be_v not_o the_o least_o of_o gift_n this_o be_v the_o great_a of_o gift_n that_o christ_n receive_v for_o rebel_n this_o gift_n of_o life_n and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v see_v how_o christ_n give_v life_n unto_o that_o evil_a generation_n that_o do_v so_o persecute_v he_o even_o to_o the_o very_a death_n though_o they_o cut_v he_o off_o from_o the_o land_n of_o the_o live_n as_o not_o be_v worthy_a to_o live_v among_o they_o yet_o to_o many_o of_o those_o that_o be_v the_o chief_a actor_n the_o chief_a instrument_n of_o the_o crucify_a of_o the_o lord_n of_o life_n there_o be_v life_n give_v they_o as_o we_o may_v see_v by_o those_o that_o be_v convert_v at_o peter_n sermon_n and_o make_v partaker_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o life_n of_o christ_n the_o apostle_n tell_v they_o in_o act_n 2._o 23._o he_o be_v deliver_v by_o the_o determinate_a counsel_n and_o foreknowledge_n of_o god_n he_o you_o have_v take_v and_o by_o wicked_a hand_n have_v crucify_a and_o slay_v and_o afterward_o in_o that_o chapter_n you_o shall_v read_v that_o even_o those_o he_o speak_v to_o here_o at_o verse_n 37._o be_v convert_v life_n be_v dispense_v to_o they_o pardon_v to_o they_o mercy_n to_o they_o grace_n to_o they_o even_o to_o they_o that_o have_v with_o wicked_a and_o cruel_a hand_n slay_v and_o crucify_v the_o lord_n of_o life_n and_o glory_n and_o therefore_o also_o christ_n say_v in_o john_n 6._o that_o he_o come_v to_o give_v his_o life_n for_o the_o world_n he_o give_v his_o flesh_n for_o the_o life_n of_o the_o world_n the_o world_n that_o lie_v in_o wickedness_n that_o be_v in_o darkness_n that_o be_v fill_v with_o enmity_n against_o christ_n and_o against_o his_o people_n whilst_o they_o be_v here_o in_o the_o world_n christ_n give_v his_o flesh_n to_o be_v life_n unto_o the_o world_n therefore_o see_v that_o eternal_a life_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n he_o give_v it_o so_o free_o to_o rebel_n to_o such_o who_o have_v their_o hand_n imbrue_v in_o his_o blood_n that_o have_v with_o wicked_a hand_n crucify_v and_o slay_v he_o see_v what_o a_o door_n of_o hope_n be_v set_v open_a for_o poor_a guilty_a sinner_n that_o they_o may_v come_v in_o and_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o this_o life_n of_o christ_n object_n but_o it_o may_v be_v that_o soul_n will_v further_o object_n and_o say_v i_o have_v not_o only_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n but_o i_o have_v continue_v so_o long_o dead_a in_o sin_n and_o trespass_n that_o when_o i_o look_v upon_o my_o

that_o the_o lord_n carry_v on_o his_o work_n though_o under_o great_a disadvantage_n that_o parable_n or_o vision_n that_o be_v represent_v to_o the_o prophet_n ezekiel_n concern_v the_o jew_n be_v very_o remarkable_a in_o ezek._n 37._o 3._o and_o he_o say_v unto_o i_o son_n of_o man_n can_v these_o bone_n live_v and_o i_o answer_v o_o lord_n thou_o know_v go_v prophecy_n upon_o they_o and_o the_o lord_n say_v than_o he_o will_v give_v life_n unto_o they_o i_o know_v no_o way_n how_o they_o shall_v live_v it_o be_v beyond_o the_o reach_n of_o the_o creature_n to_o know_v thou_o be_v

to_o such_o poor_a creature_n in_o such_o a_o condition_n when_o they_o be_v like_a unto_o dead_a and_o dry_a bone_n when_o further_a from_o life_n the_o skin_n be_v not_o only_o break_v and_o the_o
