that_o be_v above_o as_o well_o as_o to_o mind_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v above_o hence_o the_o church_n pray_v in_o the_o psalm_n 67.1_o ps_n 67.1_o god_n be_v merciful_a to_o we_o and_o bless_v

reason_n why_o they_o do_v not_o obtain_v though_o they_o do_v desire_v first_o they_o neglect_v the_o active_a obedience_n of_o a_o righteous_a life_n they_o neglect_v the_o performance_n of_o those_o duty_n that_o lead_v to_o this_o end_n obedience_n though_o it_o be_v not_o the_o cause_n of_o heaven_n yet_o it_o be_v the_o causeway_n to_o it_o though_o it_o do_v not_o merit_n yet_o it_o be_v the_o mean_n when_o our_o wish_n go_v without_o duty_n than_o they_o be_v lame_a and_o out_o of_o joint_n there_o must_v be_v faith_n repentance_n holiness_n ordinance_n obedience_n to_o the_o

sabbath_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d seder_n maamadoth_n ex_fw-la tract_n sabbath_n the_o prophet_n say_v not_o and_o god_n see_v their_o sackcloth_n and_o their_o fast_n but_o their_o work_n that_o they_o turn_v from_o their_o evil_a way_n remember_v this_o he_o that_o make_v you_o without_o your_o assistance_n will_v not_o save_v you_o without_o your_o obedience_n and_o this_o obedience_n be_v to_o be_v universal_a not_o only_o to_o the_o easy_a duty_n but_o to_o the_o more_o difficult_a some_o be_v easy_a as_o to_o believe_v we_o must_v be_v save_v by_o a_o impute_a righteousness_n to_o trust_v to_o another_o when_o we_o see_v our_o own_o imperfection_n these_o we_o be_v easy_o persuade_v to_o but_o then_o to_o love_v our_o enemy_n to_o mortify_v our_o corruption_n to_o pull_v out_o our_o right_a eye_n and_o cut_v off_o our_o right_a hand_n these_o be_v hard_a say_n man_n will_v not_o go_v to_o the_o cost_n of_o universal_a active_a obedience_n and_o therefore_o wish_v and_o wish_v and_o do_v not_o obtain_v second_o they_o decline_v the_o passive_a obedience_n of_o a_o righteous_a life_n and_o that_o make_v they_o miscarry_v they_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o be_v save_v by_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n bite_v they_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o bear_v the_o cross_n of_o christ_n they_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o follow_v christ_n to_o his_o kingdom_n but_o they_o will_v not_o follow_v he_o to_o his_o cross_n they_o will_v follow_v he_o into_o the_o garden_n of_o pleasure_n but_o not_o to_o golgotha_n the_o place_n of_o soul_n they_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o eat_v bread_n with_o christ_n at_o his_o table_n but_o be_v loath_a to_o pledge_v he_o in_o his_o bitter_a cup_n they_o will_v be_v glorify_v with_o his_o glory_n but_o not_o be_v baptize_v with_o his_o baptism_n there_o be_v the_o great_a reason_n man_n do_v not_o attain_v heaven_n they_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a but_o be_v unwilling_a to_o die_v the_o death_n for_o righteousness_n sake_n alas_o christian_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n will_v be_v your_o head_n but_o it_o be_v a_o head_n under_o a_o crown_n of_o thorn_n god_n will_v be_v your_o god_n as_o he_o be_v to_o moses_n but_o he_o will_v appear_v to_o you_o in_o the_o burn_a bush_n we_o must_v first_o enter_v into_o the_o sorrow_n of_o our_o lord_n before_o we_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o joy_n of_o our_o lord_n there_o be_v first_o those_o groan_n that_o be_v unutterable_a and_o then_o those_o joy_n that_o be_v unspeakable_a he_o that_o have_v not_o learn_v the_o lesson_n of_o the_o cross_n have_v not_o learned_a his_o a._n b._n c._n in_o religion_n the_o scripture_n teach_v first_o a_o suffering_n with_o christ_n and_o then_o a_o reign_v with_o he_o now_o there_o be_v few_o person_n willing_a to_o suffer_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o so_o few_o get_fw-mi to_o heaven_n few_o think_v themselves_o to_o be_v grace_v as_o they_o in_o the_o acts._n 5.41_o act_n 5.41_o when_o they_o be_v disgrace_v few_o that_o count_v themselves_o dignify_v when_o they_o be_v vilify_v for_o christ_n few_o that_o be_v convince_v that_o though_o they_o lose_v all_o for_o christ_n yet_o they_o shall_v lose_v nothing_o by_o he_o nay_o that_o though_o they_o lose_v all_o for_o he_o yet_o they_o may_v find_v it_o all_o again_o and_o more_o in_o he_o few_o that_o be_v like_o the_o ancient_a christian_n that_o be_v glad_a they_o have_v any_o thing_n to_o lose_v for_o jesus_n christ_n thus_o shall_v it_o be_v with_o we_o all_o we_o must_v neither_o neglect_v the_o active_a nor_o decline_v the_o passive_a obedience_n of_o a_o righteous_a life_n if_o we_o will_v die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o upright_a and_o have_v our_o last_o end_n like_o he_o thus_o i_o have_v answer_v the_o two_o question_n let_v i_o now_o conclude_v in_o a_o few_o inference_n from_o the_o premise_n and_o first_o this_o show_v we_o the_o wisdom_n and_o happiness_n of_o those_o that_o make_v choice_n of_o a_o righteous_a life_n it_o be_v the_o best_a wisdom_n because_o they_o only_o take_v the_o right_a way_n to_o ensure_v a_o bless_a death_n they_o have_v a_o prospect_n into_o futurity_n they_o consider_v what_o be_v come_v and_o therefore_o provide_v for_o it_o and_o it_o be_v their_o great_a happiness_n because_o they_o make_v sure_a of_o a_o heavenly_a reward_n after_o death_n therefore_o how_o strange_o do_v we_o argue_v when_o we_o see_v a_o worldling_n dandle_v upon_o the_o knee_n of_o prosperity_n we_o be_v prone_a to_o think_v sure_o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o favourite_n of_o heaven_n the_o darling_n of_o providence_n sure_o god_n love_v that_o man_n he_o make_v he_o so_o great_a and_o rich_a and_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n when_o we_o see_v the_o righteous_a afflict_a in_o this_o world_n reproach_v threaten_v impoverish_v imprison_v banish_a martyr_a we_o be_v apt_a to_o judge_v sure_o this_o be_v not_o a_o person_n that_o god_n love_v but_o it_o must_v be_v the_o end_n that_o must_v be_v regard_v and_o then_o it_o will_v appear_v who_o be_v the_o happy_a man_n 37.37_o psa_fw-la 37.37_o mark_v the_o perfect_a man_n and_o behold_v the_o upright_a for_o the_o end_n of_o that_o man_n be_v peace_n the_o happiness_n of_o life_n be_v to_o be_v esteem_v of_o by_o the_o end_n and_o issue_n of_o it_o though_o the_o righteous_a man_n way_n be_v affliction_n yet_o his_o end_n be_v peace_n that_o be_v a_o absence_n of_o all_o evil_a and_o the_o presence_n of_o all_o good_a the_o hebrew_a word_n for_o peace_n come_v from_o a_o root_n which_o denote_v perfection_n his_o end_n be_v perfection_n of_o happiness_n hence_o the_o rabbin_z tell_v we_o finem_fw-la 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d rab._n shimson_a ben_n
