of_o god_n stand_v in_o three_o thing_n as_o it_o be_v clear_a in_o the_o scripture_n the_o one_o be_v 1._o when_o the_o acceptable_a time_n be_v come_v that_o the_o lord_n mean_v to_o make_v a_o soul_n that_o be_v by_o nature_n a_o child_n of_o wrath_n to_o become_v the_o child_n of_o god_n he_o send_v the_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n into_o that_o soul_n to_o be_v a_o band_n of_o union_n

take_v this_o office_n upon_o himself_o to_o come_v and_o dwell_v in_o the_o heart_n as_o a_o band_n of_o union_n betwixt_o christ_n and_o they_o that_o christ_n and_o they_o shall_v never_o more_o be_v separate_v and_o this_o work_n of_o the_o pour_v out_o of_o the_o spirit_n into_o the_o soul_n to_o take_v possession_n of_o he_o for_o christ_n and_o to_o give_v the_o possession_n of_o christ_n unto_o he_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o band_n of_o it_o this_o be_v the_o first_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o he_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n there_o be_v one_o the_o second_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v this_o 2._o that_o when_o the_o holy_a spirit_n come_v to_o make_v christ_n and_o we_o one_o he_o as_o the_o elder_a brother_n and_o we_o as_o his_o brethren_n inseparable_o

childlike_a heart_n in_o they_o frame_v and_o mould_v their_o spirit_n that_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v they_o calling_n god_n father_n as_o they_o have_v warrant_v to_o do_v they_o likewise_o shall_v be_v make_v son_n even_o in_o the_o frame_n and_o bent_n of_o their_o spirit_n which_o be_v very_o excellent_o express_v in_o the_o very_a next_o word_n to_o my_o text_n wherein_o it_o be_v say_v he_o give_v they_o this_o prerogative_n that_o they_o shall_v become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n which_o be_v bear_v say_v he_o mark_n not_o of_o blood_n nor_o of_o the_o will_n of_o the_o flesh_n nor_o of_o the_o will_n of_o man_n but_o of_o god_n now_o no_o long_o shall_v flesh_n and_o blood_n sway_v they_o but_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n give_v a_o new_a birth_n and_o a_o new_a life_n now_o they_o come_v to_o have_v the_o heart_n of_o child_n that_o as_o nature_n have_v plant_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o child_n towards_o the_o parent_n honour_n and_o love_n and_o reverence_n and_o obedience_n where_o sin_n have_v not_o utter_o pervert_v it_o this_o be_v the_o natural_a genius_n of_o a_o child_n to_o his_o father_n so_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n mould_n and_o frame_n the_o soul_n and_o this_o the_o scripture_n signify_v when_o it_o say_v because_o you_o be_v son_n god_n have_v send_v the_o spirit_n of_o his_o son_n into_o your_o heart_n whereby_o now_o we_o can_v cry_v abba_n father_n now_o the_o heart_n of_o they_o shall_v stand_v to_o god_n and_o be_v carry_v to_o he_o in_o faith_n and_o prayer_n as_o the_o heart_n of_o child_n be_v natural_o carry_v to_o their_o parent_n that_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n and_o then_o the_o three_o and_o last_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o you_o have_v all_o this_o indeed_o as_o plain_a before_o you_o as_o i_o can_v set_v it_o out_o brief_o the_o three_o work_n be_v this_o 3._o this_o holy_a spirit_n even_o as_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n do_v not_o only_o unite_v they_o to_o christ_n and_o frame_v a_o suitable_a disposition_n in_o they_o towards_o god_n and_o christ_n but_o it_o abide_v in_o they_o upon_o all_o need_n to_o witness_v to_o their_o spirit_n that_o this_o be_v their_o condition_n to_o give_v not_o only_o the_o seal_n of_o it_o by_o change_v their_o heart_n but_o by_o give_v they_o the_o comfort_n of_o it_o as_o they_o need_v it_o in_o their_o necessity_n which_o the_o apostle_n express_v in_o those_o word_n it_o be_v in_o rom._n 8._o and_o the_o same_o spirit_n witness_v to_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v god_n child_n it_o carry_v our_o heart_n to_o god_n and_o testify_v to_o the_o soul_n that_o god_n be_v their_o father_n there_o be_v the_o second_o now_o i_o have_v be_v large_a in_o that_o because_o in_o truth_n the_o world_n do_v not_o ponder_v these_o thing_n nay_o few_o of_o god_n own_o child_n do_v ever_o consider_v what_o a_o strange_a work_n it_o be_v that_o none_o but_o the_o bless_a trinity_n can_v undertake_v and_o each_o of_o they_o have_v their_o distant_a work_n in_o it_o of_o bring_v a_o poor_a child_n of_o wrath_n to_o become_v the_o child_n of_o god_n that_o be_v the_o second_o you_o hear_v now_o what_o adoption_n be_v and_o how_o it_o be_v wrought_v now_o the_o three_o thing_n in_o the_o doctrinal_a part_n and_o then_o i_o hasten_v to_o the_o application_n be_v well_o what_o be_v the_o benefit_n of_o it_o now_o what_o be_v the_o benefit_n of_o our_o adoption_n that_o when_o the_o lord_n have_v take_v this_o strange_a course_n and_o bring_v about_o this_o strange_a work_n wherein_o do_v the_o worth_n of_o this_o privilege_n stand_v i_o answer_v you_o will_v receive_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o light_n of_o it_o at_o least_o it_o will_v help_v you_o to_o remember_v it_o and_o understand_v it_o the_o better_a if_o i_o do_v illustrate_v it_o by_o the_o practice_n that_o be_v among_o the_o roman_n so_o their_o adoption_n and_o the_o roman_a adoption_n have_v three_o thing_n in_o it_o it_o carry_v three_o thing_n as_o all_o learned_a man_n that_o have_v read_v their_o story_n and_o law_n do_v know_v the_o first_o be_v 1._o when_o a_o man_n be_v adopt_a into_o a_o family_n the_o family_n of_o a_o caesar_n or_o the_o great_a man_n by_o his_o adoption_n he_o be_v cut_v off_o from_o the_o family_n from_o which_o he_o spring_v by_o his_o natural_a birth_n cut_v off_o from_o it_o not_o

to_o he_o or_o if_o any_o blot_n or_o infamy_n stick_v upon_o his_o family_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v the_o adopt_v of_o this_o person_n into_o another_o family_n whole_o cut_v he_o off_o from_o all_o the_o base_a ignominious_a slavish_a bondage_n and_o danger_n which_o belong_v to_o the_o family_n from_o which_o he_o spring_v by_o his_o natural_a birth_n that_o be_v the_o first_o the_o second_o be_v 2._o that_o by_o his_o adoption_n he_o be_v take_v as_o belong_v to_o the_o family_n into_o which_o he_o be_v adopt_a as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o have_v be_v beget_v by_o he_o he_o be_v to_o

own_o beget_v son_n may_v claim_v by_o nature_n from_o the_o roman_a law_n the_o adopt_a child_n be_v institute_v in_o they_o all_o and_o three_o 3_o by_o his_o adoption_n he_o have_v the_o same_o right_n to_o the_o inheritance_n that_o the_o beget_v child_n have_v if_o there_o be_v no_o other_o beget_v child_n the_o whole_a inheritance_n sell_v to_o the_o adopt_a child_n if_o there_o be_v

live_v by_o load_v themselves_o with_o thick_a clay_n good_a store_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n and_o house_n and_o land_n but_o say_v he_o the_o just_a live_v by_o faith_n every_o godly_a man_n live_v by_o faith_n now_o this_o text_n of_o the_o prophet_n habakkuk_n it_o be_v three_o or_o four_o time_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n allege_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o prove_v the_o very_a self_n same_o doctrine_n as_o for_o example_n rom._n 1_o 17._o i_o will_v rather_o name_v that_o first_o because_o it_o prove_v both_o these_o doctrine_n i_o have_v propound_v say_v he_o in_o verse_n 16._o i_o be_o not_o ashamed_a of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n for_o it_o be_v the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o salvation_n to_o every_o one_o that_o believe_v the_o gospel_n for_o say_v he_o in_o verse_n 17._o therein_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n manifest_v from_o faith_n to_o faith_n there_o now_o be_v my_o former_a doctrine_n that_o our_o life_n to_o salvation_n it_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n manifest_v to_o we_o and_o communicate_v to_o we_o yea_o from_o one_o degree_n of_o faith_n to_o another_o according_a as_o we_o get_v more_o faith_n so_o we_o have_v more_o life_n and_o as_o righteousness_n be_v further_o reveal_v so_o we_o have_v more_o faith_n and_o consequent_o more_o life_n as_o it_o be_v write_v the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o faith_n mark_v it_o the_o manifestation_n and_o communication_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v hold_v out_o in_o the_o gospel_n but_o receive_v by_o faith_n and_o every_o believer_n live_v by_o faith_n the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o faith_n so_o in_o the_o epist._n gal._n 3.11_o the_o holy_a ghost_n repeat_v the_o very_a same_o expression_n again_o speak_v of_o the_o life_n of_o the_o saint_n as_o it_o be_v write_v the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o faith_n again_o the_o very_a same_o phrase_n in_o heb._n 10.38_o where_o the_o apostle_n there_o be_v press_v of_o believer_n to_o a_o holy_a life_n in_o difficult_a and_o troublesome_a time_n that_o be_v come_v upon_o they_o and_o show_v what_o will_v become_v of_o apostate_n and_o backsliders_a but_o say_v he_o the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o faith_n the_o whole_a life_n of_o all_o holy_a man_n while_o they_o be_v go_v through_o the_o world_n and_o get_v into_o heaven_n all_o their_o life_n be_v transact_v by_o faith_n this_o be_v clear_a and_o i_o will_v add_v but_o another_o text_n that_o which_o you_o find_v in_o 2_o cor._n 5.7_o the_o apostle_n say_v express_o we_o live_v by_o faith_n we_o live_v not_o by_o sense_n if_o you_o will_v take_v sense_n there_o for_o carnal_a sense_n thing_n that_o be_v sensible_a to_o our_o outward_a man_n we_o live_v not_o to_o sense_n or_o if_o you_o will_v take_v it_o in_o the_o more_o elevate_a interpretation_n spiritual_a sense_n that_o be_v the_o immediate_a enjoyment_n of_o the_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n to_o ravish_v we_o though_o it_o be_v a_o treasury_n to_o be_v desire_v rather_o than_o ten_o thousand_o world_n yet_o we_o live_v not_o by_o it_o but_o by_o faith_n the_o life_n of_o god_n people_n it_o lie_v all_o in_o the_o grace_n of_o faith_n but_o i_o will_v add_v two_o proof_n more_o that_o be_v not_o particular_a scripture_n but_o conclusion_n that_o be_v fit_a for_o you_o to_o study_v and_o will_v give_v a_o wonderful_a conviction_n to_o your_o heart_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o doctrine_n that_o the_o life_n of_o all_o god_n people_n while_o they_o be_v in_o this_o world_n be_v live_v by_o faith_n you_o shall_v have_v this_o demonstration_n first_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n when_o he_o compare_v spiritual_a life_n and_o natural_a life_n together_o he_o use_v to_o compare_v the_o grace_n of_o faith_n to_o all_o those_o faculty_n or_o member_n which_o be_v the_o whole_a livelihood_n of_o our_o natural_a life_n those_o member_n or_o faculty_n which_o contribute_v the_o most_o to_o the_o livelihood_n of_o our_o natural_a life_n the_o holy_a ghost_n make_v faith_n to_o be_v all_o these_o in_o our_o spiritual_a life_n pray_v remember_v my_o meaning_n be_v thus_o you_o know_v while_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n while_o we_o live_v we_o must_v be_v feed_v take_v away_o food_n appetite_n eat_v digest_v drink_v concoct_v of_o it_o and_o you_o destroy_v a_o man_n life_n present_o faith_n be_v our_o mouth_n by_o which_o we_o feed_v all_o the_o food_n that_o the_o soul_n have_v it_o be_v by_o a_o spiritual_a mouth_n and_o it_o be_v faith_n whereby_o we_o feed_v ordinary_o it_o be_v compare_v to_o our_o mouth_n appetite_n and_o stomach_n but_o then_o before_o the_o food_n come_v to_o our_o mouth_n the_o hand_n receive_v it_o and_o convey_v it_o to_o the_o mouth_n faith_n be_v our_o hand_n

spirit_n of_o god_n set_v it_o out_o by_o they_o all_o thereby_o signify_v to_o we_o that_o what_o the_o eye_n mouth_n hand_n and_o taste_v contribute_v to_o our_o natural_a life_n that_o do_v the_o grace_n of_o faith_n to_o our_o spiritual_a life_n while_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n that_o be_v one_o conclusion_n that_o i_o think_v be_v a_o clear_v demonstration_n that_o while_o god_n people_n live_v in_o this_o world_n it_o be_v faith_n that_o be_v their_o life_n the_o second_o which_o be_v yet_o more_o full_a be_v this_o that_o you_o shall_v find_v clear_o in_o the_o scripture_n that_o not_o only_o our_o life_n in_o general_n be_v attribute_v to_o faith_n but_o every_o thing_n concern_v our_o life_n be_v in_o scripture_n make_v the_o work_n of_o faith_n oh_o that_o we_o can_v

general_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o work_n of_o faith_n but_o every_o thing_n that_o concern_v our_o spiritual_a life_n the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v impute_v it_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o faith_n as_o now_o i_o will_v instance_n in_o some_o thing_n that_o will_v comprehend_v all_o the_o rest_n all_o the_o life_n of_o a_o christian_a be_v reducible_a either_o 1._o to_o the_o beginning_n of_o it_o

by_o faith_n so_o that_o by_o faith_n we_o receive_v the_o spirit_n as_o it_o be_v the_o very_a principle_n of_o our_o life_n i_o confess_v this_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n for_o faith_n itself_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o yet_o the_o spirit_n be_v receive_v by_o faith_n but_o the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v it_o be_v so_o somewhat_o i_o will_v say_v to_o witness_v that_o but_o the_o time_n will_v not_o allow_v it_o i_o so_o that_o our_o very_a beginning_n of_o our_o spiritual_a life_n be_v by_o faith_n while_o we_o be_v mere_o passive_a the_o spirit_n of_o god_n work_v
