second_o our_o worship_n be_v more_o spiritual_a than_o their_o worship_n be_v as_o that_o know_a place_n in_o joh._n 4._o 23._o where_o christ_n say_v to_o the_o woman_n of_o samaria_n you_o serve_v

with_o god_n we_o may_v come_v into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o speak_v our_o heart_n free_o with_o a_o holy_a boldness_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n five_o we_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o

there_o be_v a_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n under_o which_o even_o the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v in_o former_a time_n and_o now_o the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n be_v more_o spread_v abroad_o and_o communicate_v in_o the_o world_n to_o the_o church_n than_o it_o be_v before_o and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n expect_v a_o conversation_n suitable_a to_o the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n as_o now_o take_v one_o that_o be_v a_o child_n and_o have_v a_o servile_a spirit_n and_o be_v afraid_a to_o come_v into_o the_o presence_n of_o his_o father_n it_o may_v be_v he_o will_v do_v some_o work_n in_o

come_v a_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n upon_o the_o child_n oh_o then_o he_o go_v lively_a on_o in_o duty_n to_o his_o father_n than_o he_o rejoice_v in_o the_o presence_n of_o his_o father_n &_o to_o

else_o our_o conversation_n it_o be_v not_o such_o as_o become_v the_o gospel_n therefore_o when_o you_o open_v the_o old_a testament_n and_o read_v of_o those_o excellent_a gracious_a spirit_n that_o be_v there_o especial_o in_o the_o psalm_n what_o holy_a breathe_n and_o pant_n after_o god_n there_o be_v and_o in_o the_o prophet_n what_o exemplary_a holiness_n then_o live_v and_o shine_v in_o

they_o be_v ans_fw-fr i_o will_v give_v you_o one_o scripture_n about_o that_o in_o zach._n 12._o 8._o it_o be_v a_o clear_a prophecy_n of_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o that_o day_n shall_v the_o lord_n defend_v the_o inhabitant_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o he_o that_o be_v feeble_a among_o they_o at_o that_o day_n shall_v be_v as_o david_n and_o the_o house_n of_o david_n shall_v be_v as_o

read_v david_n psalm_n particular_o the_o 119._o psalm_n and_o see_v the_o holy_a breathe_n of_o david_n and_o observe_v that_o there_o be_v a_o prophecy_n that_o those_o that_o be_v feeble_a shall_v be_v as_o david_n and_o those_o that_o be_v as_o david_n that_o be_v the_o eminent_a christian_n the_o lord_n champion_n and_o the_o house_n of_o david_n shall_v be_v as_o god_n as_o the_o angel_n of_o the_o lord_n

he_o that_o will_v follow_v i_o let_v he_o deny_v himself_o you_o never_o read_v of_o such_o a_o precept_n in_o all_o the_o old_a testament_n though_o no_o question_n the_o people_n of_o god_n do_v deny_v themselves_o then_o but_o in_o express_a term_n so_o full_o you_o have_v not_o such_o a_o thing_n there_o and_o there_o be_v no_o such_o rule_n among_o the_o heathen_n for_o a_o man_n to_o deny_v himself_o let_v he_o deny_v himself_o those_o that_o know_v the_o original_a know_v that_o the_o word_n be_v not_o only_o to_o deny_v but_o there_o be_v that_o join_v to_o it_o that_o do_v

deny_v themselves_o and_o that_o thorough_o it_o be_v a_o proper_a lesson_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o first_o lesson_n oh_o when_o our_o lord_n and_o master_n have_v thus_o deny_v himself_o and_o empty_v himself_o for_o good_a to_o we_o what_o be_v beseem_v this_o gospel_n but_o that_o all_o that_o be_v professor_n of_o it_o shall_v deny_v themselves_o it_o be_v very_o unbeseeming_a the_o glorious_a gospel_n for_o a_o christian_n to_o be_v selvish_a to_o have_v his_o self-end_n and_o self-way_n and_o interest_n in_o every_o thing_n as_o general_o almost_o all_o man_n in_o the_o

unbecoming_a the_o gospel_n but_o now_o i_o say_v one_o that_o will_v live_v as_o become_v the_o gospel_n must_v be_v whole_o empty_v of_o himself_o whatsoever_o part_n estate_n credit_n or_o honour_n he_o have_v in_o the_o world_n must_v be_v melt_v into_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n jesus_n christ_n for_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n be_v content_a infinite_o to_o deny_v himself_o more_o than_o we_o can_v for_o what_o have_v we_o to_o deny_v ourselves_o of_o do_v you_o or_o i_o live_v as_o become_v the_o gospel_n when_o i_o say_v all_o that_o we_o apprehend_v to_o have_v any_o excellency_n

all_o these_o reason_n come_v to_o nothing_o till_o the_o soul_n come_v to_o behold_v the_o clear_a light_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o there_o behold_v the_o son_n of_o god_n by_o faith_n how_o he_o
