the_o full_a signification_n of_o it_o the_o first_o be_v the_o latitude_n or_o extent_n of_o the_o word_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o habit_n of_o grace_n from_o strength_n to_o strength_n that_o be_v from_o one_o habit_n of_o grace_n to_o another_o habit_n of_o grace_n that_o when_o we_o have_v attain_v the_o pitch_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a of_o any_o grace_n we_o shall_v not_o content_v ourselves_o with_o that_o there_o be_v other_o grace_n to_o be_v attain_v that_o as_o a_o man_n that_o will_v learn_v perfect_o to_o read_v must_v go_v through_o the_o whole_a list_n and_o alphabet_n of_o letter_n and_o none_o be_v to_o be_v except_v so_o he_o that_o will_v come_v to_o take_v out_o the_o whole_a lesson_n of_o christianity_n must_v set_v out_o the_o whole_a lesson_n sentence_n

not_o rest_v there_o but_o go_v on_o from_o the_o habit_n of_o one_o grace_n to_o another_o because_o all_o grace_n upon_o occasion_n bring_v glory_n to_o god_n and_o a_o christian_n have_v need_n in_o this_o world_n of_o every_o grace_n and_o every_o grace_n lead_v alike_o to_o the_o same_o excellency_n of_o glory_n and_o the_o same_o blessing_n and_o reward_n be_v state_v upon_o it_o how_o ever_o it_o be_v true_a as_o gregory_n nazianzen_n say_v well_o some_o particular_a grace_n be_v more_o proper_a to_o some_o particular_a estate_n and_o age_n of_o man_n repentance_n be_v a_o grace_n more_o proper_a to_o they_o that_o be_v fall_v and_o perseverance_n be_v a_o grace_n more_o proper_a to_o they_o that_o stand_v a_o man_n that_o be_v down_o can_v be_v call_v to_o persevere_v he_o be_v not_o yet_o raise_v but_o a_o man_n that_o be_v up_o his_o proper_a grace_n that_o have_v his_o foot_n already_o set_v in_o christianity_n be_v to_o exhort_v he_o to_o persevere_v and_o to_o exhort_v the_o other_o to_o rise_v so_o alms-deed_n it_o be_v a_o grace_n that_o be_v more_o proper_a to_o he_o that_o be_v rich_a and_o contentation_n to_o the_o poor_a call_v to_o a_o poor_a man_n for_o alm_n he_o have_v the_o alm_n of_o prayer_n not_o of_o relief_n it_o be_v not_o a_o grace_n so_o proper_a to_o carry_v it_o further_o modesty_n and_o sobriety_n they_o be_v grace_n proper_a to_o they_o that_o be_v young_a wisdom_n and_o gravity_n and_o discretion_n be_v grace_n proper_a to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o year_n that_o be_v old_a thankfulness_n be_v a_o proper_a grace_n for_o he_o that_o abound_v in_o prosperity_n and_o patience_n be_v a_o proper_a grace_n for_o he_o that_o be_v in_o adversity_n so_o nazienzen_n say_v well_o there_o be_v grace_n more_o proper_a and_o peculiar_a to_o certain_a condition_n of_o man_n but_o this_o hinder_v not_o but_o that_o every_o grace_n be_v needful_a and_o necessary_a to_o all_o because_o every_o man_n may_v be_v set_v in_o every_o

christian_a but_o he_o have_v need_n of_o every_o grace_n because_o he_o may_v be_v set_v in_o every_o condition_n and_o estate_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o attain_v some_o one_o grace_n and_o to_o neglect_v the_o other_o to_o mortify_v some_o one_o vice_n and_o fall_v into_o another_o that_o stand_v not_o with_o the_o nature_n of_o repentance_n to_o attain_v to_o some_o one_o virtue_n with_o the_o contempt_n of_o another_o it_o stand_v not_o with_o the_o state_n of_o breathe_v after_o perfection_n for_o a_o man_n to_o subdue_v pride_n and_o keep_v covetousness_n or_o to_o subdue_v covetousness_n and_o keep_v envy_v and_o malice_n each_o of_o these_o make_v he_o equal_o abominable_a to_o god_n for_o a_o man_n to_o attain_v to_o the_o habit_n of_o charity_n and_o not_o to_o study_v the_o grace_n of_o repentance_n or_o to_o attain_v to_o the_o grace_n of_o repentance_n and_o not_o to_o give_v accomplishment_n to_o it_o by_o the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n and_o

many_o degree_n of_o strength_n there_o must_v be_v a_o connexion_n of_o all_o the_o habit_n of_o grace_n we_o must_v glorify_v god_n by_o charity_n as_o well_o as_o by_o faith_n by_o repentance_n as_o well_o as_o by_o charity_n and_o by_o obedience_n as_o well_o as_o by_o repentance_n and_o by_o humbleness_n of_o mind_n and_o patience_n as_o well_o as_o by_o obedience_n the_o grace_n be_v

who_o the_o body_n fit_o compact_v together_o so_o it_o grow_v up_o as_o all_o the_o several_a member_n of_o christ_n knit_v by_o the_o same_o faith_n make_v one_o solid_a mesticall_a body_n so_o all_o the_o grace_n together_o make_v up_o one_o choir_n there_o be_v one_o chain_n of_o grace_n that_o be_v so_o necessary_o link_v that_o as_o in_o the_o part_n of_o the_o body_n take_v away_o one_o and_o you_o deform_v the_o whole_a so_o break_v one_o grace_n you_o mar_v the_o whole_a chain_n therefore_o the_o scripture_n call_v ever_o and_o anon_o that_o we_o be_v fruitful_a in_o every_o good_a

if_o they_o show_v not_o themselves_o in_o act_n they_o may_v glorify_v god_n within_o but_o they_o can_v without_o further_o than_o they_o manifest_v themselves_o in_o action_n therefore_o the_o

they_o st._n austin_n observe_v in_o one_o place_n against_o the_o heathen_n that_o christian_a virtue_n far_o excel_v the_o m●rall_a virtue_n of_o the_o heathen_a even_o by_o the_o very_a name_n they_o be_v call_v say_v he_o you_o call_v your_o virtue_n habit_n we_o call_v we_o gift_n you_o ascribe_v it_o to_o your_o self_n and_o therefore_o you_o call_v they_o habit_n because_o you_o have_v they_o but_o we_o call_v they_o gift_n because_o we_o receive_v they_o from_o god_n every_o good_a gift_n be_v from_o above_o and_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o very_a good_a argument_n that_o st._n austin_n use_v yet_o there_o be_v a_o three_o word_n may_v be_v take_v that_o be_v better_a then_o both_o that_o be_v practice_n for_o whither_o we_o consider_v they_o as_o habit_n or_o gift_n they_o be_v not_o perfect_a till_o they_o come_v to_o action_n it_o be_v not_o the_o have_v but_o the_o husband_n of_o a_o grace_n that_o bring_v glory_n to_o god_n for_o a_o man_n to_o have_v the_o habit_n and_o not_o to_o put_v it_o in_o practice_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o a_o talon_n in_o a_o napkin_n therefore_o the_o scripture_n in_o several_a place_n use_v those_o two_o word_n promiscuous_o to_o he_o that_o have_v shall_v be_v give_v and_o he_o shall_v

can_v be_v do_v but_o by_o the_o bath_n that_o be_v take_v from_o christ_n and_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n the_o jew_n that_o be_v ignorant_a and_o know_v nothing_o in_o the_o time_n of_o christ_n they_o know_v that_o who_o can_v forgive_v sin_n but_o god_n though_o they_o misapply_v it_o yet_o it_o be_v be_v true_a in_o the_o thesis_fw-la and_o in_o the_o general_a who_o can_v forgine_n sin_n out_o god_n and_o christ_n unless_o he_o have_v be_v god_n can_v not_o have_v forgive_v sin_n who_o can_v forgive_v sin_n but_o god_n cyr●l_n well_o upon_o the_o place_n give_v the_o reason_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o because_o god_n be_v the_o lawgiver_n and_o the_o judge_n say_v he_o to_o who_o can_v it_o possible_o belong_v to_o pardon_v and_o pass_v by_o and_o wipe_v away_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n but_o to_o he_o that_o be_v the_o giver_n of_o the_o law_n therefore_o none_o of_o the_o prophet_n or_o apostle_n dare_v ever_o arrogate_v this_o privilege_n nathan_n when_o he_o be_v send_v to_o david_n though_o he_o have_v a_o commission_n from_o god_n dare_v not_o speak_v in_o his_o own_o name_n but_o the_o lord_n have_v pardon_v and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o prophet_n or_o apostle_n dare_v assume_v so_o much_o shall_v we_o that_o be_v man_n far_o inferior_a in_o place_n and_o piety_n and_o those_o special_a intercourse_n of_o the_o love_n and_o knowledge_n of_o god_n it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v a_o power_n give_v to_o minister_n declaratorie_n to_o publish_v and_o pronounce_v pardon_n to_o the_o true_o repentant_a but_o the_o power_n of_o absolution_n proper_o so_o call_v and_o the_o power_n of_o take_v away_o and_o pardon_v that_o only_a god_n keep_v in_o his_o own_o custody_n say_v ambrose_n well_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n do_v that_o that_o belong_v to_o his_o duty_n when_o he_o declare_v and_o publish_v pardon_n to_o the_o repentant_a but_o he_o exercise_v not_o any_o power_n and_o authority_n it_o be_v but_o ministerial_a therefore_o saint_n austin_n observe_v well_o that_o when_o christ_n give_v this_o power_n to_o his_o apostle_n and_o disciple_n who_o sin_n you_o remit_v they_o be_v remit_v he_o first_o premise_v he_o breathe_v on_o they_o and_o say_v receive_v you_o the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v he_o first_o they_o receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o then_o who_o sin_n yeremit_fw-la they_o be_v remit_v for_o it_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o put_v away_o sin_n and_o not_o you_o it_o be_v augustine_n observation_n and_o we_o may_v further_o observe_v that_o christ_n when_o he_o heal_v any_o common_o he_o pronounce_v forgiveness_n of_o sin_n but_o the_o apostle_n though_o they_o heal_v many_o yet_o we_o never_o read_v that_o they_o use_v this_o word_n to_o note_v that_o christ_n give_v the_o power_n of_o heal_v to_o they_o but_o he_o keep_v the_o power_n of_o pardon_v to_o himself_o further_o than_o it_o be_v ministerial_a he_o keep_v the_o power_n of_o put_v away_o of_o sin_n to_o himself_o for_o it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o majesty_n it_o can_v be_v so_o to_o other_o god_n may_v make_v angel_n to_o declare_v it_o or_o man_n but_o the_o power_n be_v proper_a to_o he_o christ_n give_v the_o power_n of_o heal_v to_o the_o apostle_n but_o he_o keep_v the_o power_n of_o pardon_v to_o himself_o saint_n austin_n press_v it_o against_o the_o donatist_n sweet_o who_o will_v fain_o

the_o promise_n a_o man_n will_v think_v that_o the_o apostle_n shall_v rather_o have_v vary_v it_o in_o this_o clause_n though_o love_n be_v a_o excellent_a grace_n and_o as_o much_o interress_v in_o the_o promise_n as_o any_o other_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o so_o pertinent_a one_o will_v think_v to_o mention_v the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o this_o after_o he_o have_v speak_v of_o suffering_n if_o it_o have_v run_v ordinary_o and_o regular_o it_o shall_v have_v run_v thus_o bless_a be_v the_o man_n that_o endure_v temptation_n for_o when_o he_o be_v try_v he_o shall_v receive_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n which_o god_n have_v promise_v to_o those_o that_o suffer_v for_o he_o have_v make_v mention_n of_o tribulation_n before_o a_o man_n will_v have_v think_v he_o will_v have_v continue_v in_o the_o course_n of_o speak_v to_o those_o that_o suffer_v for_o he_o as_o christ_n do_v bless_a be_v those_o that_o suffer_v for_o righteousness_n sake_n for_o they_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n or_o if_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v set_v it_o large_a yet_o he_o may_v have_v annex_v it_o to_o other_o grace_n that_o be_v comprehensive_a as_o well_o as_o love_v as_o the_o crown_n that_o be_v promise_v timentibus_fw-la to_o those_o that_o fear_v he_o or_o vincentibus_fw-la to_o they_o that_o overcome_v and_o persevere_v or_o credentibus_fw-la to_o those_o that_o believe_v or_o colentibus_fw-la to_o those_o that_o serve_v he_o all_o these_o have_v interest_n in_o the_o crown_n of_o life_n but_o he_o can_v not_o set_v it_o better_o it_o be_v set_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n but_o we_o may_v see_v good_a reason_n that_o the_o crown_n be_v promise_v to_o those_o that_o love_v he_o it_o be_v not_o improper_a it_o be_v not_o straight_o it_o be_v not_o exclusive_a it_o be_v not_o improper_a have_v begin_v to_o speak_v of_o suffering_n bless_a be_v they_o that_o endure_v and_o suffer_v tribulation_n &_o tentation_n he_o end_v with_o love_n why_o so_o there_o be_v good_a reason_n nothing_o enable_v a_o man_n more_o to_o suffer_v for_o the_o name_n of_o god_n than_o love_n god_n never_o think_v we_o suffer_v for_o he_o if_o we_o do_v not_o love_v he_o there_o be_v no_o burden_n so_o light_a but_o it_o be_v heavy_a if_o love_n be_v want_v and_o there_o be_v no_o burden_n so_o heavy_a but_o it_o be_v light_v where_o love_n be_v as_o bernard_n say_v there_o be_v nothing_o that_o love_n can_v make_v easy_a and_o light_n every_o yoke_n solus_fw-la amor_fw-la etc._n etc._n as_o st._n austin_n say_v well_o love_n be_v only_o that_o that_o find_v no_o difficulty_n it_o leap_v over_o every_o impediment_n and_o obstacle_n there_o be_v nothing_o can_v stand_v in_o the_o way_n of_o love_n to_o keep_v it_o from_o christ_n nothing_o be_v hard_o to_o love_v god_n can_v give_v a_o command_n so_o severe_a to_o the_o eye_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n he_o can_v lay_v so_o much_o weight_n of_o suffering_n but_o love_n will_v bear_v it_o it_o make_v all_o thing_n easy_a the_o apostle_n st._n john_n he_o tell_v we_o in_o 1_o john_n 1._o of_o keep_v the_o commandment_n by_o love_n and_o then_o follow_v this_o be_v love_n to_o keep_v his_o commandment_n and_o his_o commandment_n be_v not_o grievious_a why_o be_v they_o not_o grievous_a love_n account_v every_o thing_n easy_a therefore_o because_o he_o will_v show_v the_o way_n how_o we_o be_v to_o suffer_v and_o to_o come_v to_o the_o crown_n he_o say_v he_o have_v reserve_v it_o for_o they_o that_o love_v he_o because_o love_n will_v endure_v and_o bear_v all_o thing_n love_n will_v endure_v any_o thing_n for_o god_n there_o be_v good_a reason_n and_o it_o be_v very_o proper_a that_o the_o apostle_n shall_v place_v it_o so_o second_o it_o be_v not_o exclusive_a it_o do_v not_o exclude_v other_o grace_n that_o be_v not_o mention_v the_o crown_n be_v promise_v in_o other_o place_n to_o other_o virtue_n there_o be_v no_o virtue_n but_o have_v the_o promise_n of_o the_o

again_o to_o faith_n the_o promise_n be_v make_v to_o that_o and_o so_o of_o the_o rest_n every_o grace_n have_v the_o promise_n therefore_o because_o in_o other_o place_n the_o promise_n be_v make_v to_o fear_n and_o faith_n and_o patience_n and_o purity_n the_o apostle_n here_o single_v out_o the_o mistress_n grace_n and_o settle_v the_o promise_n on_o she_o on_o love_n they_o be_v not_o
