be_v to_o keep_v the_o fire_n burn_v it_o be_v a_o fond_a thing_n for_o a_o man_n to_o quench_v his_o fire_n and_o then_o think_v to_o keep_v himself_o still_o warm_a it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o

infuse_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n now_o concern_v these_o grace_n of_o sanctification_n we_o must_v remember_v two_o distinction_n distinct_a 1._o some_o sanctify_a grace_n be_v radical_a original_a fundamental_a grace_n primary_n grace_n as_o they_o may_v be_v call_v which_o be_v the_o immediate_a work_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o faith_n hope_n love_n other_o be_v secondary_a grace_n issue_v and_o flow_v from_o these_o which_o though_o the_o spirit_n work_v too_o yet_o it_o work_v by_o these_o such_o be_v joy_n which_o arise_v from_o faith_n rom._n 14._o fill_v your_o heart_n with_o joy_n in_o all_o believe_a such_o be_v confidence_n arise_v from_o hope_n such_o be_v zeal_n and_o fervour_n of_o spirit_n arise_v from_o love_n these_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o lustre_n the_o shine_n the_o radiancy_n of_o the_o radical_a fundamental_a grace_n they_o be_v the_o flame_n of_o they_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o coal_n of_o fire_n that_o lie_v on_o the_o hearth_n and_o the_o flame_n of_o the_o fire_n which_o be_v kindle_v from_o the_o coal_n on_o the_o hearth_n when_o a_o man_n faith_n cause_v joy_n than_o faith_n flame_n when_o his_o hope_n breed_v confidence_n then_o hope_v flame_n and_o when_o a_o man_n love_n make_v he_o zealous_a than_o his_o love_n flame_n and_o burn_v out_o they_o be_v like_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n faith_n hope_n love_n they_o the_o body_n joy_n confidence_n zeal_n they_o the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n 2._o distinct_a we_o must_v consider_v in_o the_o sanctify_a grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n 3._o thing_n 1._o there_o be_v the_o gift_n themselves_o the_o habit_n infuse_v the_o habit_n of_o faith_n hope_n and_o love_n 2._o there_o be_v the_o use_n and_o exercise_n and_o act_n of_o they_o 3._o there_o be_v the_o degree_n and_o several_a measure_n of_o they_o 4._o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n signify_v the_o motion_n and_o holy_a suggestion_n of_o the_o spirit_n those_o gracious_a excitement_n to_o duty_n the_o spirit_n blow_v where_o it_o list_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o breathe_n and_o the_o blast_n of_o it_o and_o this_o be_v also_o here_o mean_v now_o see_v what_o spirit_n signify_v we_o be_v to_o inquire_v in_o what_o sense_n and_o after_o what_o sort_n the_o spirit_n may_v be_v quench_v quench_v it_o may_v be_v or_o else_o the_o counsel_n be_v in_o vain_a not_o to_o quench_v it_o and_o again_o if_o it_o may_v be_v quench_v it_o may_v be_v a_o uncomfortable_a thing_n what_o comfort_n can_v a_o man_n have_v in_o have_v god_n spirit_n if_o it_o may_v be_v lose_v what_o comfort_n to_o have_v this_o fire_n kindle_v in_o our_o heart_n if_o so_o be_v it_o be_v a_o quenchable_a fire_n therefore_o for_o the_o clear_n of_o this_o point_n we_o must_v know_v 1._o first_o take_v the_o spirit_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n that_o may_v be_v quench_v and_o lose_v and_o so_o for_o the_o gift_n of_o government_n ministry_n etc._n etc._n this_o spirit_n may_v be_v quench_v a_o man_n may_v have_v such_o gift_n much_o decay_v and_o abate_v yea_o a_o man_n may_v whole_o lose_v such_o gift_n as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o saul_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v upon_o he_o so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o he_o that_o ihe_a spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n depart_v from_o he_o 1_o sam._n 16.14_o second_o take_v the_o spirit_n for_o the_o gift_n &_o common_a grace_n of_o illumination_n and_o so_o the_o spirit_n may_v be_v quench_v and_o utter_o extinguish_v so_o as_o such_o may_v quite_o lose_v that_o grace_n that_o look_v like_o grace_n and_o come_v very_o near_o a_o save_a grace_n if_o they_o fall_v away_o heb._n 6._o therefore_o man_n may_v have_v all_o that_o there_o be_v speak_v of_o which_o fall_n away_o three_o take_v the_o spirit_n for_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n and_o then_o make_v use_n of_o this_o first_o distinction_n and_o according_a to_o it_o the_o radical_a and_o fundamental_a grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n such_o as_o faith_n hope_n love_n can_v be_v whole_o &_o total_o extinguish_v where_o once_o they_o be_v wrought_v in_o the_o heart_n but_o yet_o their_o lustre_n their_o radiancy_n their_o shine_n and_o flame_n may_v be_v quench_v a_o man_n though_o he_o can_v lose_v his_o faith_n yet_o he_o may_v lose_v and_o want_v and_o quench_v his_o joy_n a_o man_n though_o he_o can_v lose_v his_o hope_n yet_o may_v lose_v his_o comfort_n and_o confidence_n a_o man_n though_o he_o can_v lose_v his_o love_n yet_o may_v cool_v his_o zeal_n and_o fervour_n we_o see_v in_o a_o fire_n the_o wood_n may_v be_v burn_v out_o and_o so_o the_o flame_n abate_v and_o quite_o quench_v but_o yet_o there_o remain_v still_o a_o heap_n of_o coal_n on_o the_o hearth_n and_o there_o may_v be_v a_o good_a fire_n still_o though_o the_o flame_n be_v quench_v the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n do_v not_o always_o shine_v out_o a_o cloud_n may_v be_v interpose_v that_o may_v intercept_v the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o bright_a and_o comfortable_a radicie_n and_o splendour_n of_o they_o but_o yet_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v in_o heaven_n still_o though_o the_o beam_n be_v intercept_v so_o joy_n confidence_n zeal_n may_v for_o a_o time_n be_v quench_v lose_v abate_v but_o though_o the_o flame_n of_o these_o be_v down_o and_o the_o

beam_n of_o these_o be_v hinder_v yet_o there_o be_v coal_n of_o fire_n in_o the_o heart_n and_o the_o body_n of_o these_o be_v there_o the_o flame_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o feeling_n &_o sense_n of_o it_o may_v be_v quench_v for_o a_o time_n in_o the_o seconda-grace_n thereof_o but_o yet_o the_o spirit_n it_o self_n and_o the_o cardinal_a grace_n thereof_o remain_v still_o in_o the_o heart_n it_o may_v be_v in_o this_o as_o in_o that_o case_n isa_n 6.13_o as_o a_o teyle_n tree_n and_o as_o a_o oak_n who_o substance_n be_v in_o they_o when_o they_o cast_v their_o leaf_n a_o oak_n may_v

regard_n of_o the_o joy_n of_o the_o flame_n but_o not_o quench_v in_o regard_n of_o the_o fundamental_a grace_n thereof_o not_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o fire_n of_o it_o the_o flame_n be_v down_o

of_o these_o habit_n the_o spirit_n can_v be_v quench_v second_o there_o be_v the_o act_n use_v and_o exercise_v of_o they_o in_o that_o regard_n the_o spirit_n may_v be_v quench_v for_o though_o the_o habit_n of_o faith_n can_v be_v kill_v yet_o the_o act_n use_v and_o exercise_v of_o it_o may_v be_v deaden_v so_o as_o it_o may_v not_o for_o the_o present_a act_n and_o work_v and_o a_o man_n

the_o spirit_n may_v be_v quench_v a_o man_n may_v come_v to_o have_v a_o less_o degree_n of_o faith_n hope_n love_n a_o less_o degree_n of_o joy_n and_o zeal_n the_o degree_n of_o these_o may_v be_v

of_o the_o habit_n there_o be_v no_o amission_n of_o grace_n look_v upon_o the_o act_n and_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o act_n there_o may_v be_v a_o intermission_n of_o it_o look_v upon_o the_o degree_n
