B10013 Advice to readers of the common prayer, and the people attending the same. With a preface concerning divine worship. Humbly offered to consideration, for promoting the greater decency and solemnity in performing the offices of God's publick worship, administered according to the order established by law amongst us / by a well-meaning (though unlearned) layick of the Church of England.

the_o high_a dignity_n at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n i_o say_v he_o that_o consider_v this_o i_o hope_v will_v think_v as_o i_o do_v i_o know_v prejudice_n hinder_v man_n from_o observe_v

so_o where_o man_n be_v not_o prejudice_v i_o very_o believe_v they_o will_v think_v that_o in_o no_o way_n they_o can_v do_v it_o better_o there_o be_v something_o also_o to_o be_v infer_v as_o to_o this_o matter_n of_o god_n worship_n from_o the_o plentiful_a effusion_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o gospel-time_n and_o our_o fellowship_n and_o communion_n in_o that_o spirit_n there_o be_v some_o phrase_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o i_o think_v have_v be_v pervert_v to_o a_o wrong_a sense_n such_o as_o pray_v in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n worship_v god_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n which_o i_o think_v may_v better_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o worship_a god_n as_o reveal_v by_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v call_v the_o ministration_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o respect_n foremention_v or_o else_o to_o our_o worship_a god_n in_o faith_n and_o fervency_n in_o unity_n and_o unanimity_n without_o distinction_n of_o jew_n and_o gentile_n in_o spirituality_n without_o legal_a type_n and_o figure_n and_o carnal_a ordinance_n in_o the_o virtue_n of_o christ_n merit_n which_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o all_o the_o bloody_a sacrifice_n of_o atonement_n for_o acceptance●_n with_o god_n in_o the_o legal_a worship_n and_o this_o according_a to_o the_o revelation_n whereof_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v author_n and_o by_o who_o gift_n and_o power_n they_o be_v confirm_v i_o say_v better_o refer_v to_o these_o thing_n than_o to_o pray_v without_o study_n or_o a_o prepare_a form_n only_o by_o help_n of_o the_o spirit_n it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o if_o those_o expression_n have_v any_o relation_n to_o pray_v by_o any_o extraordinary_a and_o supernatural_a assistance_n of_o god_n spirit_n as_o be_v their_o pray_v in_o language_n they_o have_v never_o learn_v or_o in_o expression_n that_o be_v above_o any_o attainment_n they_o can_v be_v suppose_v to_o have_v by_o ordinary_a mean_n it_o must_v be_v appliable_a only_o unto_o that_o time_n for_o however_o a_o opinion_n have_v be_v insinuate_v of_o late_a of_o a_o miraculous_a and_o supernatural_a assistance●_n for_o the_o performance_n of_o that_o duty_n which_o have_v give_v confidence_n to_o many_o who_o be_v natural_o unable_a for_o the_o same_o to_o venture_v on_o it_o and_o that_o even_o in_o public_a administration_n to_o the_o great_a dishonour_n of_o religion_n and_o just_a offence_n of_o all_o wise_a man_n yet_o i_o think_v none_o will_v dare_v to_o affirm_v that_o any_o christian_a or_o minister_n have_v any_o promise_n from_o god_n of_o such_o assistance_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o may_v make_v it_o to_o be_v true_o say_v that_o be_v pray_v in_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o sense_n abovementioned_a but_o now_o pray_v in_o the_o spirit_n as_o i_o first_o interpret_v it_o of_o pray_v as_o the_o revelation_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n require_v be_v appliable_a to_o all_o time_n and_o person_n and_o this_o i_o think_v to_o be_v do_v as_o in_o the_o forementioned_a respect_n of_o worship_v the_o trinity_n in_o unity_n and_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n as_o god-man_n so_o also_o when_o our_o prayer_n be_v order_v for_o the_o great_a advantage_n of_o faith_n and_o fervency_n and_o of_o the_o unity_n and_o fellowship_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o i_o think_v we_o be_v order_v for_o in_o the_o first_o place_n our_o faith_n be_v help_v by_o the_o assurance_n that_o we_o ask_v such_o thing_n as_o be_v please_v to_o god_n and_o second_o by_o the_o frequent_a mention_n of_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n when_o we_o pray_v in_o the_o word_n which_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n himself_o have_v teach_v we_o and_o use_v such_o form_n as_o have_v be_v compose_v by_o man_n famous_a in_o the_o church_n and_o approve_v by_o multitude_n of_o christian_n and_o that_o for_o many_o age_n when_o our_o prayer_n be_v order_v with_o great_a advice_n of_o those_o that_o be_v most_o learned_a among_o

we_o may_v on_o all_o these_o account_n he_o more_o assure_v that_o we_o pray_v for_o such_o thing_n as_o we_o ought_v than_o when_o we_o join_v in_o a_o prayer_n we_o never_o hear_v before_o and_o such_o as_o be_v the_o sudden_a conception_n of_o a_o private_a minister_n as_o the_o use_n be_v with_o those_o that_o be_v against_o our_o way_n and_o final_o the_o frequent_a mention_n of_o the_o merit_n of_o our_o saviour_n at_o the_o conclusion_n of_o our_o brief_n collect_v be_v more_o helpful_a to_o our_o belief_n that_o we_o shall_v find_v acceptance_n for_o christ_n sake_n than_o when_o it_o be_v only_o once_o at_o the_o end_n of_o a_o long_a continue_a prayer_n if_o my_o own_o experience_n and_o that_o of_o wise_a man_n do_v not_o deceive_v i_o and_o second_o for_o fervency_n we_o have_v great_a help_n also_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v but_o to_o apply_v our_o mind_n to_o earnestness_n in_o praise_v god_n and_o pray_v to_o he_o no_o need_n of_o attend_v to_o hear_v what_o be_v

help_v more_o to_o true_a fervency_n than_o long_a prayer_n though_o the_o novelty_n and_o variety_n may_v more_o work_v on_o man_n fancy_n then_o three_o the_o unity_n and_o fellowship_n o●_n the_o

saint_n of_o all_o age_n in_o this_o that_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n be_v to_o be_v administer_v by_o a_o prepare_a form_n and_o not_o by_o the_o present_a conception_n of_o the_o administrator_n for_o i_o can_v understand_v that_o either_o the_o jewish_a church_n or_o the_o christian_a do_v ever_o administer_v their_o public_a worship_n in_o any_o other_o way_n except_o what_o those_o person_n do_v who_o be_v divine_o inspire_v as_o many_o be_v among_o the_o jew_n and_o in_o the_o first_o age_n of_o the_o church_n who_o therefore_o be_v say_v to_o prophecy_n when_o they_o utter_v such_o excellent_a psalm_n or_o prayer_n extempore_o of_o which_o this_o be_v a_o sufficient_a demonstration_n to_o i_o that_o in_o the_o jewish_a synagogue_n all_o thing_n at_o this_o day_n be_v administer_v by_o form_n and_o in_o all_o the_o christian_a church_n that_o have_v not_o be_v account_v enthusiastical_a the_o same_o way_n be_v ever_o observe_v or_o at_o least_o none_o can_v deny_v that_o it_o now_o be_v so_o in_o all_o the_o christian_a world_n except_o those_o congregation_n unite_v in_o some_o odd_a opinion_n that_o do_v separate_v from_o the_o body_n of_o christian_n the_o only_a considerable_a body_n of_o these_o that_o ever_o admit_v the_o other_o way_n of_o administration_n be_v the_o scot_n former_o and_o the_o english_a in_o the_o late_a distraction_n but_o on_o many_o account_v that_o admission_n can_v be_v esteem_v a_o orderly_a settlement_n or_o excuse_v they_o from_o schism_n though_o it_o be_v by_o the_o prevail_a party_n now_o since_o it_o have_v scarce_o ever_o be_v know_v in_o matter_n sacred_a and_o of_o long_a custom_n that_o great_a alteration_n have_v be_v make_v but_o with_o great_a opposition_n and_o commotion_n i_o conclude_v that_o if_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o jewish_a worship_n in_o their_o synagogue_n or_o of_o the_o christian_a worship_n in_o
that_o our_o whole_a dependence_n be_v on_o his_o favour_n and_o blessing_n and_o all_o this_o and_o much_o more_o be_v contain_v in_o our_o acknowledge_v he_o to_o be_v god_n which_o we_o do_v by_o bow_v down_o before_o he_o in_o the_o place_n of_o his_o public_a worship_n 2._o since_o the_o chief_a end_n of_o our_o public_a service_n be_v the_o most_o explicit_a worship_v god_n by_o acknowledge_v those_o thing_n which_o deity_n do_v imply_v it_o be_v very_o meet_v that_o we_o join_v this_o act_n of_o adoration_n with_o our_o prayer_n and_o praise_n in_o fit_a place_n as_o at_o the_o mention_n of_o god_n glorious_a title_n and_o attribute_n in_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o collect_v and_o when_o we_o implore_v his_o gracious_a acceptance_n through_o the_o merit_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n in_o the_o conclusion_n thereof_o and_o there_o be_v also_o many_o place_n in_o the_o te_fw-la deum_fw-la and_o in_o the_o other_o hymn_n and_o psalm_n where_o this_o action_n be_v very_o fit_a both_o to_o express_v our_o sense_n of_o god_n presence_n our_o reverence_n towards_o he_o our_o belief_n that_o he_o see_v we_o and_o that_o he_o hear_v all_o we_o speak_v to_o he_o and_o also_o to_o keep_v our_o devotion_n in_o life_n and_o strength_n and_o to_o assist_v it_o in_o each_o other_o i_o find_v in_o many_o place_n of_o scripture_n where_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o solemn_a approach_n of_o the_o people_n unto_o god_n be_v describe_v that_o they_o do_v bow_v their_o head_n and_o worship_n in_o conjunction_n with_o their_o praise_n and_o prayer_n and_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o natural_a decency_n in_o the_o thing_n that_o all_o unprejudiced_a person_n must_v approve_v it_o sure_o i_o be_o that_o the_o devout_a behaviour_n of_o such_o as_o i_o have_v know_v to_o be_v true_o pious_a man_n in_o this_o kind_n have_v have_v a_o great_a influence_n on_o i_o and_o i_o may_v think_v it_o will_v have_v the_o like_a on_o other_o 3._o that_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o the_o intention_n of_o mind_n which_o be_v require_v to_o the_o speak_n in_o any_o good_a sense_n and_o method_n in_o the_o extempore_o way_n of_o prayer_n be_v a_o great_a hindrance_n to_o the_o due_a use_n of_o such_o act_n of_o worship_n in_o the_o speaker_n and_o that_o the_o necessary_a attention_n to_o what_o be_v speak_v and_o the_o inward_a discourse_n of_o reason_n whether_o it_o be_v fit_a for_o we_o to_o join_v with_o the_o minister_n therein_o be_v as_o great_a hindrance_n to_o such_o devotion_n in_o the_o hearer_n 4._o that_o the_o brief_a and_o comprehensive_a prayer_n into_o which_o the_o general_a office_n of_o prayer_n in_o our_o way_n be_v divide_v seem_v much_o better_a in_o this_o respect_n than_o if_o the_o several_a matter_n whereof_o they_o consist_v be_v compose_v into_o one_o long_o continue_a prayer_n 5._o that_o it_o will_v be_v very_o convenient_a that_o every_o one_o will_v keep_v to_o their_o own_o parish-church_n where_o they_o may_v have_v conveniency_n to_o perform_v both_o this_o and_o other_o expression_n of_o devotion_n better_a than_o they_o can_v in_o a_o crowd_n into_o which_o many_o throng_n for_o lesser_a benefit_n than_o they_o may_v have_v by_o a_o devout_a performance_n of_o these_o holy_a office_n this_o than_o i_o conceive_v according_a to_o what_o i_o have_v say_v before_o to_o be_v the_o worship_n of_o god_n when_o man_n know_v and_o consider_v that_o there_o be_v one_o eternal_a infinite_a be_v of_o most_o glorious_a and_o tremendous_a majesty_n of_o incomprehensible_a goodness_n wisdom_n and_o power_n and_o that_o be_v present_a in_o all_o place_n who_o have_v make_v we_o with_o such_o power_n and_o faculty_n as_o fit_v we_o for_o his_o worship_n and_o service_n and_o enrich_v we_o with_o such_o benefit_n as_o give_v we_o great_a obligation_n thereunto_o do_v expect_v that_o we_o perform_v the_o same_o to_o the_o great_a advantage_n of_o his_o glory_n and_o honour_n i_o say_v when_o we_o know_v this_o go_v unto_o the_o place_n of_o god_n public_a worship_n and_o there_o do_v by_o action_n worship_n god_n bow_v our_o head_n and_o knee_n before_o he_o and_o also_o by_o word_n declare_v our_o belief_n of_o his_o be_v presence_n perfection_n and_o wonderful_a work_n and_o our_o thankfulness_n for_o his_o infinite_a mercy_n and_o joy_n and_o delight_n in_o his_o service_n when_o we_o humble_o and_o serious_o attend_v to_o the_o solemn_a read_n of_o his_o divine_a truth_n the_o history_n of_o his_o mighty_a work_n to_o his_o promise_n and_o threaten_n whereby_o he_o have_v enforce_v his_o law_n to_o the_o prophecy_n and_o miraculous_a gift_n whereby_o he_o have_v assure_v we_o the_o doctrine_n be_v from_o himself_o though_o by_o ministry_n of_o man_n and_o suchlike_a thing_n of_o great_a concernment_n to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o our_o good_a which_o we_o hear_v out_o of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o also_o when_o we_o make_v our_o supplication_n and_o prayer_n before_o he_o as_o our_o supreme_a lord_n and_o governor_n and_o thereby_o acknowledge_v his_o universal_a presence_n and_o providence_n extend_v to_o all_o time_n place_n and_o person_n with_o all_o their_o circumstance_n even_o in_o the_o minute_a thing_n and_o withal_o overrule_a the_o great_a and_o when_o 〈◊〉_d all_o these_o we_o

to_o adore_v his_o divine_a majesty_n internal_o and_o external_o and_o to_o express_v our_o devout_a affection_n by_o such_o action_n as_o bow_v and_o lift_v up_o our_o eye_n and_o hand_n to_o
