turn_v our_o heart_n from_o incline_v to_o they_o and_o help_v we_o to_o see_v our_o folly_n and_o our_o danger_n for_o alas_o we_o be_v not_o able_a of_o ourselves_o to_o help_v ourselves_o not_o so_o much_o as_o to_o think_v a_o good_a thought_n much_o less_o to_o resist_v a_o evil_a inclination_n or_o a_o strong_a temptation_n but_o our_o sufficiency_n be_v of_o god_n it_o be_v god_n say_v

phil._n 4._o 13._o all_o thing_n without_o the_o divine_a grace_n and_o assistance_n it_o be_v impossible_a we_o shall_v be_v keep_v from_o any_o sin_n and_o without_o prayer_n there_o be_v no_o way_n

common_a but_o dangerous_a mistake_v of_o some_o that_o will_v be_v think_v more_o orthodox_n christian_n who_o think_v to_o have_v help_n without_o ask_v hence_o those_o manifold_a exhortation_n and_o command_n in_o ss_z to_o pray_v continual_o to_o pray_v without_o cease_v to_o watch_v and_o pray_v watch_v you_o 36._o luk._n 21._o 36._o therefore_o and_o pray_v always_o say_v our_o saviour_n

for_o our_o encouragement_n to_o pray_v we_o have_v the_o great_a assurance_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v grant_v ask_v and_o it_o shall_v be_v give_v you_o say_v our_o bless_a 9_o luk._n 11._o 9_o

and_o it_o shall_v 5._o jam._n 1._o 5._o be_v give_v he_o what_o more_o positive_a promise_n in_o the_o book_n of_o god_n but_o here_o if_o any_o one_o object_n as_o i_o believe_v some_o be_v apt_a to_o do_v if_o god_n be_v so_o liberal_a in_o grant_v his_o grace_n and_o spirit_n how_o come_v it_o then_o to_o pass_v that_o so_o many_o run_v into_o sin_n for_o want_v of_o it_o who_o yet_o perhaps_o be_v frequent_o ask_v it_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o such_o either_o ask_v it_o not_o in_o faith_n that_o be_v rely_v on_o those_o way_n and_o use_v the_o mean_n which_o god_n in_o

ask_v as_o st._n augustine_n somewhere_o say_v of_o himself_o that_o when_o in_o his_o youthful_a heat_n he_o pray_v against_o his_o belove_a sin_n he_o do_v it_o so_o cold_o as_o though_o he_o be_v afraid_a lest_o god_n shall_v hear_v he_o or_o else_o they_o neglect_v to_o stir_v up_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o be_v already_o bestow_v on_o they_o and_o cease_v to_o second_v it_o with_o their_o own_o endeavour_n for_o 2._o we_o must_v always_o remember_v that_o though_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n prevent_v we_o that_o we_o may_v have_v a_o good_a will_n and_o work_n in_o we_o when_o we_o have_v it_o that_o so_o we_o may_v find_v success_n yet_o in_o vain_a do_v we_o expect_v the_o continuance_n of_o his_o help_n without_o our_o diligent_a endeavour_n while_o he_o assist_v our_o weakness_n he_o do_v not_o intend_v to_o encourage_v our_o laziness_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v also_o to_o labour_n and_o 29._o col._n 1._o 29._o strive_v according_a to_o his_o work_n which_o work_v in_o we_o mighty_o as_o the_o apostle_n express_v it_o it_o be_v the_o may_v of_o his_o power_n that_o work_v in_o we_o but_o we_o be_v to_o labour_v according_a to_o it_o or_o else_o we_o provoke_v he_o to_o withdraw_v it_o from_o we_o and_o this_o i_o observe_v the_o rather_o because_o there_o be_v some_o in_o the_o world_n who_o think_v they_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v but_o only_o to_o sit_v as_o it_o be_v with_o fold_a arm_n under_o the_o influence_n of_o heaven_n and_o wait_v for_o their_o work_n to_o be_v do_v to_o their_o hand_n by_o the_o almighty_a power_n of_o god_n and_o the_o sole_a operation_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o spirit_n and_o though_o they_o will_v glad_o be_v help_v yet_o never_o stir_v a_o foot_n to_o help_v themselves_o but_o sure_o a_o christian_n one_o that_o be_v in_o covenant_n with_o christ_n by_o baptism_n and_o a_o member_n of_o his_o body_n shall_v know_v and_o consider_v better_a thing_n and_o such_o as_o accompany_v his_o salvation_n viz._n that_o though_o god_n be_v always_o before_o hand_n with_o we_o in_o give_v we_o his_o spirit_n yet_o when_o it_o be_v once_o bestow_v he_o expect_v our_o compliance_n and_o humble_a concurrence_n with_o it_o that_o we_o shall_v manage_v his_o grace_n with_o carefulness_n and_o improve_v his_o talent_n with_o diligence_n most_o unfeigned_o ascribe_v all_o the_o glory_n to_o himself_o who_o be_v the_o sole_a efficient_a cause_n of_o all_o that_o be_v good_a in_o we_o wherefore_o as_o we_o must_v always_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v keep_v we_o from_o such_o sin_n so_o we_o must_v labour_v also_o to_o keep_v ourselves_o since_o we_o have_v now_o no_o excuse_n from_o weakness_n no_o pretence_n for_o disability_n have_v the_o promise_n of_o divine_a assistance_n and_o of_o

to_o which_o i_o shall_v add_v 3._o that_o we_o take_v care_n to_o avoid_v such_o thing_n and_o decline_v such_o occasion_n as_o be_v most_o likely_a to_o snare_v we_o and_o gain_v upon_o we_o lest_o one_o thing_n hook_n in_o another_o and_o we_o be_v catch_v in_o the_o gin_n before_o we_o suspect_v the_o danger_n the_o neglect_n of_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o first_o sin_n to_o which_o we_o owe_v our_o inclination_n to_o all_o the_o rest_n for_o adam_n be_v not_o deceive_v say_v the_o apostle_n but_o the_o woman_n be_v deceive_v 14._o 1_o tim._n 2._o 14._o be_v in_o the_o
