name_n in_o the_o hear_n of_o his_o word_n five_o how_o god_n will_v sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o way_n of_o mercy_n to_o those_o that_o be_v careful_a to_o sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n these_o be_v the_o five_o principal_a thing_n that_o concern_v this_o argument_n for_o the_o first_o that_o the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n you_o hear_v in_o the_o open_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n in_o the_o general_n what_o it_o be_v i_o tell_v you_o it_o be_v a_o tender_v up_o of_o the_o creature_n homage_n to_o god_n a_o testimony_n of_o the_o respect_n that_o the_o creature_n do_v owe_v to_o god_n now_o if_o that_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o worship_n certain_o the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n for_o in_o the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n we_o 1_o first_o do_v profess_v our_o dependence_n upon_o god_n for_o the_o know_v of_o his_o mind_n and_o the_o way_n to_o eternal_a life_n every_o time_n we_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n if_o we_o know_v what_o we_o do_v we_o do_v thus_o much_o we_o do_v profess_v that_o we_o do_v depend_v upon_o the_o lord_n god_n for_o the_o know_v of_o his_o mind_n and_o the_o way_n and_o rule_v to_o eternal_a life_n we_o do_v as_o much_o as_o if_o we_o shall_v say_v lord_n of_o ourselves_o we_o neither_o know_v thou_o nor_o the_o way_n &_o mean_n how_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o be_v save_v and_o therefore_o that_o we_o may_v testify_v our_o dependence_n upon_o thou_o for_o this_o thing_n we_o here_o present_v ourselves_o before_o thou_o now_o this_o be_v a_o testimony_n of_o the_o high_a respect_n we_o owe_v to_o god_n 2_o second_o the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n be_v a_o part_n of_o his_o worship_n because_o in_o it_o we_o come_v to_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o the_o way_n of_o a_o ordinance_n to_o have_v that_o good_a convey_v to_o we_o by_o way_n of_o a_o ordinance_n beyond_o what_o the_o thing_n be_v able_a in_o itself_o to_o do_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v worship_n i_o wait_v upon_o god_n when_o i_o be_o hear_v the_o word_n if_o i_o know_v what_o i_o do_v to_o have_v some_o spiritual_a good_a convey_v to_o i_o beyond_o what_o there_o be_v in_o the_o mean_n itself_o this_o make_v it_o worship_n when_o i_o be_o busy_v in_o natural_a and_o civil_a action_n there_o i_o must_v profess_v that_o these_o thing_n can_v do_v i_o no_o good_a without_o god_n but_o i_o do_v not_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o a_o ordinance_n for_o the_o conveyance_n of_o natural_a good_a beyond_o what_o god_n have_v put_v into_o the_o creature_n it_o be_v his_o blessing_n with_o it_o that_o god_n in_o the_o ordinary_a course_n of_o his_o providence_n do_v convey_v such_o natural_a or_o civil_a good_a in_o the_o use_n of_o those_o creature_n but_o now_o when_o i_o come_v to_o hear_v his_o word_n i_o here_o come_v to_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o the_o way_n of_o a_o ordinance_n for_o the_o conveyance_n of_o some_o spiritual_a good_a that_o this_o ordinance_n have_v not_o in_o its_o self_n take_v it_o material_o but_o mere_o as_o it_o have_v a_o institution_n in_o it_o and_o be_v appoint_v by_o god_n for_o the_o conveyance_n of_o such_o and_o such_o thing_n god_n do_v appoint_v meat_n to_o nourish_v i_o and_o together_o with_o his_o appointment_n he_o have_v give_v a_o natural_a power_n to_o meat_n to_o nourish_v my_o body_n that_o in_o a_o ordinary_a course_n of_o providence_n be_v enough_o for_o the_o nourishment_n of_o my_o body_n but_o now_o when_o i_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n i_o must_v look_v upon_o that_o not_o only_o as_o a_o thing_n appoint_v to_o work_v upon_o my_o soul_n and_o to_o save_v my_o soul_n by_o not_o as_o a_o thing_n that_o have_v any_o efficacy_n put_v into_o it_o in_o a_o natural_a way_n as_o the_o other_o have_v it_o be_v not_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o carry_v such_o a_o power_n in_o it_o but_o it_o be_v the_o institution_n of_o god_n and_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n in_o it_o now_o then_o when_o i_o come_v to_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o a_o ordinance_n for_o the_o spiritual_a good_a that_o be_v beyond_o the_o virtue_n of_o any_o creature_n to_o convey_v to_o i_o certain_o i_o worship_v god_n that_o be_v a_o special_a part_n of_o worship_n to_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o this_o way_n therefore_o in_o these_o two_o respect_n the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o i_o beseech_v you_o remember_v these_o two_o thing_n every_o time_n you_o come_v to_o hear_v i_o come_v now_o to_o give_v a_o testimony_n that_o i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o understand_v god_n and_o the_o way_n to_o eternal_a life_n of_o myself_o but_o i_o do_v depend_v upon_o god_n for_o the_o knowledge_n of_o it_o and_o here_o i_o come_v to_o wait_v upon_o god_n for_o the_o conveyance_n of_o that_o good_a to_o my_o soul_n that_o be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o any_o creature_n to_o convey_v now_o i_o worship_v when_o i_o do_v these_o but_o further_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o more_o plain_a when_o we_o come_v to_o open_v how_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o the_o hear_n of_o his_o word_n this_o be_v divine_a service_n as_o much_o as_o any_o service_n can_v be_v perform_v heretofore_o our_o prelate_n and_o those_o kind_n of_o man_n make_v all_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n to_o be_v in_o their_o divine_a service_n as_o they_o call_v it_o which_o be_v of_o their_o own_o invention_n and_o make_v light_n of_o the_o preach_n or_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n but_o the_o word_n be_v a_o great_a part_n of_o that_o divine_a service_n that_o god_n require_v of_o we_o in_o his_o worship_n and_o in_o it_o you_o do_v tender_a up_o your_o homage_n to_o god_n you_o therefore_o must_v not_o only_a when_o you_o come_v to_o hear_v think_v i_o come_v to_o get_v something_o i_o come_v to_o understand_v more_o than_o i_o do_v and_o to_o hear_v such_o a_o man_n part_n and_o the_o like_a but_o remember_v you_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o your_o homage_n to_o god_n to_o sit_v at_o god_n foot_n and_o there_o to_o profess_v your_o subjection_n to_o he_o that_o be_v one_o end_n of_o your_o come_n to_o hear_v sermon_n now_o than_o you_o will_v say_v what_o shall_v be_v do_v in_o the_o hear_n god_n word_n so_o as_o god_n name_n may_v be_v sanctify_v for_o that_o as_o we_o open_v in_o the_o general_a that_o in_o the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n there_o must_v be_v preparation_n and_o then_o a_o answerable_a behaviour_n of_o the_o soul_n so_o here_o there_o must_v first_o ●e_v a_o preparation_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o this_o work_n and_o then_o a_o answerable_a behaviour_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o it_o 1_o there_o must_v be_v a_o preparation_n of_o the_o soul_n so_o as_o when_o you_o come_v to_o hear_v you_o may_v with_o all_o readiness_n receive_v the_o word_n the_o soul_n must_v be_v make_v ready_a in_o act._n 17._o 11._o there_o it_o be_v say_v these_o be_v more_o noble_a than_o those_o of_o thessalonica_n in_o that_o they_o receive_v the_o word_n with_o all_o readiness_n of_o mind_n the_o word_n be_v with_o all_o a●aerity_n as_o well_o as_o readiness_n their_o mind_n be_v in_o a_o fit_a preparation_n to_o receive_v the_o word_n and_o the_o text_n say_v they_o be_v more_o noble_a the_o word_n that_o be_v translate_v more_o noble_a it_o signify_v better_o breed_v for_o i_o do_v not_o take_v this_o scripture_n as_o if_o it_o be_v mean_v only_o of_o man_n that_o be_v earl_n or_o lord_n that_o do_v thus_o receive_v the_o word_n with_o readiness_n but_o they_o be_v of_o a_o more_o noble_a disposition_n they_o be_v well_o breed_v man_n so_o the_o greek_a word_n signify_v a_o man_n some_o time_n preach_v to_o a_o company_n of_o rude_a people_n that_o never_o have_v any_o good_a breed_n they_o will_v behave_v themselves_o rude_o they_o slight_a the_o word_n and_o like_o the_o swine_n regard_v acorn_n rather_o than_o pearl_n and_o the_o word_n be_v seldom_o so_o profitable_a to_o a_o company_n of_o rude_a people_n that_o have_v no_o breed_n at_o all_o but_o now_o there_o be_v more_o hope_n to_o preach_v to_o man_n that_o have_v breed_n man_n that_o be_v exercise_v in_o art_n and_o science_n and_o have_v some_o understanding_n and_o so_o some_o ingenuity_n in_o they_o they_o will_v hearken_v to_o reason_n now_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o spiritual_a reason_n in_o the_o word_n there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n to_o convince_v man_n that_o be_v but_o rational_a man_n let_v a_o man_n be_v but_o a_o rational_a man_n and_o willing_a to_o attend_v to_o the_o word_n i_o
the_o word_n be_v compare_v to_o meat_n and_o it_o must_v be_v apply_v to_o the_o body_n then_o do_v we_o worship_v god_n in_o a_o right_a way_n when_o as_o we_o take_v notice_n of_o god_n word_n as_o concern_v we_o in_o particular_a as_o that_o notable_a scripture_n that_o you_o have_v in_o 1_o cor._n 14._o 25._o where_o there_o come_v a_o poor_a man_n into_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o hear_v prophesy_v hear_v the_o word_n open_v and_o the_o text_n say_v he_o be_v convince_v of_o all_o he_o be_v judge_v of_o all_o and_o then_o in_o vers_n 25_o thus_o be_v the_o secret_n of_o his_o heart_n manifest_a and_o so_o fall_v down_o on_o his_o face_n he_o worship_v god_n and_o report_n that_o god_n be_v in_o you_o of_o a_o truth_n that_o be_v when_o the_o word_n come_v and_o meet_v with_o his_o soul_n in_o particular_a that_o he_o find_v himself_o to_o be_v aim_v at_o by_o the_o word_n than_o he_o worship_v god_n and_o say_v that_o god_n certain_o be_v in_o they_o here_o be_v the_o reason_n now_o that_o when_o you_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n you_o do_v not_o worship_n god_n because_o you_o apply_v it_o not_o to_o yourselves_o you_o be_v ready_a to_o say_v this_o be_v well_o speak_v to_o such_o a_o one_o and_o it_o concern_v such_o a_o one_o but_o how_o do_v it_o concern_v thy_o soul_n in_o particular_a sometime_o the_o lord_n do_v even_o force_v man_n and_o woman_n to_o apply_v it_o whether_o they_o will_v or_o no_o for_o that_o they_o think_v the_o minister_n speak_v to_o they_o in_o particular_a and_o that_o no_o body_n be_v speak_v too_o in_o the_o congregation_n but_o themselves_o this_o be_v a_o mercy_n when_o the_o lord_n do_v it_o unto_o you_o but_o it_o be_v a_o great_a mercy_n when_o the_o lord_n give_v you_o a_o heart_n to_o apply_v it_o to_o yourselves_o and_o although_o it_o may_v trouble_v you_o a_o little_a for_o the_o present_a yet_o be_v willing_a to_o apply_v it_o and_o account_v it_o a_o great_a mercy_n from_o the_o lord_n that_o the_o lord_n will_v be_v please_v to_o speak_v in_o particular_a to_o your_o soul_n 4_o four_o we_o must_v mix_v faith_n with_o the_o word_n or_o otherwise_o it_o will_v do_v we_o but_o little_a good_a apply_v it_o and_o then_o believe_v it_o in_o heb._n 4._o 2._o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o word_n preach_v do_v not_o profit_v they_o not_o be_v mix_v with_o faith_n in_o they_o that_o hear_v it_o wherefore_o there_o must_v be_v a_o mixture_n of_o faith_n to_o believe_v the_o word_n that_o the_o lord_n bring_v unto_o you_o now_o concern_v that_o i_o will_v but_o propound_v these_o few_o particular_n you_o will_v say_v must_v we_o believe_v every_o thing_n that_o be_v speak_v sometime_o there_o be_v some_o thing_n speak_v that_o we_o can_v tell_v how_o to_o believe_v i_o do_v not_o mean_v so_o to_o believe_v every_o thing_n mere_o be_v speak_v for_o you_o must_v take_v heed_n what_o you_o hear_v as_o well_o as_o how_o you_o hear_v but_o do_v thus_o much_o at_o least_o 1_o in_o the_o first_o place_n whatsoever_o come_v in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n to_o you_o except_o you_o know_v certain_o it_o be_v not_o according_a to_o the_o write_a word_n you_o owe_v so_o much_o respect_n to_o it_o as_o to_o examine_v it_o at_o least_o to_o try_v it_o whether_o it_o be_v so_o or_o no_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o those_o welbred_a man_n that_o i_o speak_v of_o that_o they_o do_v examine_v whether_o thing_n be_v so_o or_o no._n do_v not_o cast_v off_o any_o thing_n present_o that_o come_v in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n now_o any_o thing_n that_o have_v the_o broad_a seal_n upon_o it_o you_o must_v not_o disobey_v you_o will_v say_v it_o may_v be_v counterfeit_a but_o do_v not_o disobey_v it_o till_o you_o be_v sure_a it_o be_v counterfeit_a oh_o that_o man_n will_v

do_v but_o grant_v this_o respect_n to_o the_o word_n that_o be_v speak_v to_o you_o as_o to_o think_v thus_o what_o if_o all_o that_o i_o hear_v speak_v against_o my_o fin_n which_o lay_v open_v the_o dangerous_a condition_n that_o my_o soul_n be_v in_o prove_v to_o be_v true_a what_o a_o case_n be_v i_o in_o then_o this_o have_v be_v the_o beginning_n of_o the_o conversion_n of_o many_o soul_n the_o have_v but_o such_o a_o thought_n as_o this_o it_o may_v be_v thing_n be_v not_o so_o terrible_a as_o i_o hear_v but_o what_o if_o they_o do_v prove_v so_o then_o i_o be_o undo_v for_o ever_o dare_v i_o venture_v my_o soul_n and_o my_o eternal_a estate_n upon_o hope_n that_o these_o thing_n be_v not_o so_o bad_a as_o i_o hear_v i_o believe_v if_o you_o will_v put_v yourselves_o to_o it_o you_o will_v think_v it_o a_o bold_a adventure_n and_o the_o comfort_n that_o any_o of_o you_o have_v ground_v upon_o this_o mere_o hope_v that_o thing_n be_v not_o so_o bad_a as_o you_o hear_v it_o be_v a_o curse_a comfort_n that_o have_v no_o sure_a bottom_n grant_v that_o respect_n therefore_o to_o the_o word_n 3_o three_o consider_v this_o it_o may_v be_v i_o do_v not_o see_v clear_o that_o these_o thing_n be_v so_o which_o be_v deliver_v i_o do_v not_o see_v enough_o to_o believe_v they_o now_o but_o what_o if_o i_o be_v now_o die_v what_o if_o i_o be_v now_o go_v to_o receive_v the_o sentence_n of_o my_o eternal_a doom_n will_v i_o not_o then_o believe_v these_o thing_n will_v i_o not_o then_o think_v what_o i_o hear_v out_o of_o the_o word_n to_o be_v true_a it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n for_o man_n to_o reject_v the_o word_n while_o they_o have_v their_o health_n and_o prosperity_n but_o if_o you_o be_v to_o die_v and_o upon_o your_o sick_a and_o death_n bed_n if_o you_o see_v the_o infinite_a ocean_n of_o eternity_n before_o you_o what_o will_v you_o say_v then_o be_v the_o word_n true_a yea_o or_o no_o will_v you_o give_v beleif_fw-mi unto_o the_o suggestion_n of_o the_o devil_n then_o we_o find_v it_o by_o experience_n that_o man_n that_o can_v easy_o cast_v off_o the_o word_n in_o their_o health_n yet_o when_o they_o have_v come_v to_o lie_v upon_o their_o sick_a bed_n and_o death_n bed_n they_o find_v the_o word_n true_a believe_v it_o now_o as_o well_o as_o then_o 4_o consider_v if_o thou_o do_v not_o believe_v what_o a_o case_n be_v thou_o in_o be_o i_o worse_o than_o the_o devil_n themselves_o the_o scripture_n tell_v i_o that_o the_o devil_n believe_v and_o tremble_v why_o lord_n do_v i_o come_v to_o hear_v sermon_n and_o be_o i_o more_o hard_a to_o believe_v then_o the_o very_a devil_n themselves_o they_o do_v believe_v that_o word_n that_o i_o cast_v off_o and_o they_o tremble_v at_o it_o but_o my_o soul_n be_v not_o at_o

of_o christ_n yet_o god_n have_v put_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o honour_n upon_o this_o ordinance_n that_o man_n that_o be_v very_o wicked_a otherwise_o yet_o their_o conscience_n tell_v they_o that_o when_o they_o come_v to_o this_o ordinance_n than_o they_o must_v be_v good_a than_o they_o must_v not_o sin_n but_o have_v good_a thought_n and_o good_a prayer_n at_o that_o time_n and_o many_o

that_o i_o promise_v to_o show_v how_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o this_o ordinance_n certain_o the_o name_n of_o god_n have_v be_v much_o take_v in_o vain_a there_o have_v be_v a_o

second_o this_o ordinance_n it_o must_v be_v receive_v in_o a_o holy_a communion_n there_o must_v be_v a_o communion_n of_o saint_n for_o this_o ordinance_n and_o it_o can_v be_v receive_v anywhere_o

can_v live_v without_o his_o meat_n and_o drink_n and_o so_o for_o the_o soul_n to_o have_v such_o a_o disposition_n after_o christ_n this_o be_v a_o rare_a thing_n but_o know_v that_o god_n name_n

thou_o see_v nothing_o but_o a_o little_a bread_n and_o wine_n but_o now_o where_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n be_v there_o be_v a_o real_a appearance_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o the_o soul_n as_o if_o

all_o of_o you_o can_v but_o acknowledge_v and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o natural_a duty_n of_o worship_n the_o other_o be_v institute_v but_o
other_o way_n or_o one_o take_v up_o one_o end_n and_o the_o other_o the_o other_o end_n that_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o he_o help_v our_o infirmity_n the_o poor_a foul_a be_v pull_v and_o tug_v with_o its_o own_o heart_n and_o find_v his_o heart_n heavy_a and_o dull_a like_o a_o log_n in_o a_o ditch_n and_o have_v not_o many_o of_o you_o find_v your_o heart_n so_o but_o now_o then_o when_o you_o be_v tug_v with_o your_o heart_n and_o will_v fain_o lift_v up_o your_o heart_n to_o god_n in_o prayer_n there_o come_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n at_o the_o other_o end_n and_o take_v the_o heavy_a end_n of_o the_o burden_n and_o help_v you_o to_o lift_v it_o up_o if_o a_o child_n be_v at_o one_o end_n of_o the_o log_n and_o that_o be_v but_o light_n and_o the_o other_o end_n very_o heavy_a if_o one_o come_v and_o take_v up_o the_o heavy_a end_n a_o little_a strength_n will_v serve_v for_o the_o light_a end_n so_o the_o spirit_n come_v and_o take_v up_o the_o heavy_a end_n in_o duty_n and_o so_o help_v our_o infirmity_n help_n together_o and_o then_o the_o other_o word_n be_v the_o spirit_n that_o be_v together_o with_o the_o act_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o our_o heart_n you_o must_v not_o say_v so_o alas_o what_o can_v i_o do_v it_o must_v be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o must_v do_v all_o it_o be_v true_a he_o do_v all_o first_o he_o give_v

habitual_a grace_n in_o thy_o heart_n why_o then_o when_o the_o spirit_n come_v to_o assist_v it_o do_v expect_v that_o thou_o shall_v stir_v up_o all_o the_o gift_n and_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o very_a strength_n of_o thy_o body_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n expect_v that_o thou_o shall_v act_v to_o the_o uttermost_a thou_o be_v able_a what_o power_n have_v be_v give_v thou_o by_o

other_o word_n that_o minister_n make_v use_v of_o to_o set_v forth_o the_o mystery_n of_o religion_n by_o but_o yet_o it_o be_v useful_a to_o consider_v the_o meaning_n why_o minister_n in_o the_o church_n have_v give_v this_o name_n unto_o those_o sign_n and_o seal_n that_o the_o church_n receive_v sacrament_n be_v to_o hallow_v a_o thing_n or_o to_o dedicate_v because_o in_o the_o sacrament_n there_o be_v outward_a thing_n that_o be_v make_v holy_a for_o holy_a and_o spiritual_a end_n second_o we_o ourselves_o do_v as_o it_o be_v hallow_v or_o dedicate_v ourselves_o unto_o god_n in_o the_o use_n of_o these_o ordinance_n that_o be_v one_o reason_n from_o whence_o it_o have_v the_o name_n or_o otherwise_o as_o some_o will_v have_v it_o sacramentum_fw-la because_o it_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v sacrament_n with_o a_o holy_a mind_n and_o therefore_o call_v the_o sacrament_n the_o church_n have_v use_v it_o a_o long_a time_n in_o tertullia_n time_n which_o be_v above_o fourteen_o hundred_o year_n ago_o he_o be_v the_o first_o that_o we_o find_v use_v this_o word_n and_o most_o that_o will_v open_v the_o word_n unto_o we_o say_v that_o especial_o it_o be_v take_v from_o the_o practice_n of_o soldier_n who_o when_o they_o come_v and_o list_v themselves_o bind_v themselves_o in_o a_o solemn_a oath_n to_o be_v faithful_a to_o their_o captain_n and_o to_o the_o cause_n that_o they_o do_v undertake_v and_o the_o oath_n they_o be_v wont_a to_o call_v sacramentum_fw-la a_o sacrament_n now_o in_o regard_n that_o christian_n when_o they_o come_v to_o this_o ordinance_n they_o come_v to_o seal_v a_o covenant_n with_o god_n and_o though_o they_o do_v not_o formal_o and_o explicit_o take_v a_o oath_n yet_o they_o bind_v themselves_o in_o a_o holy_a covenant_n which_o have_v the_o strength_n even_o of_o a_o oath_n in_o it_o for_o a_o solemn_a promise_n to_o the_o high_a god_n have_v the_o strength_n of_o a_o oath_n in_o it_o and_o from_o thence_o they_o be_v call_v by_o these_o name_n sacrament_n but_o that_o for_o the_o word_n that_o you_o may_v understand_v it_o but_o the_o word_n the_o scripture_n use_v to_o set_v out_o this_o sacrament_n by_o that_o now_o i_o
