heb._n 12.28_o let_v we_o have_v grace_n whereby_o we_o may_v serve_v god_n acceptable_o with_o reverence_n and_o godly_a fear_n fear_v you_o must_v know_v be_v a_o comprehensive_a word_n it_o be_v more_o than_o a_o particular_a grace_n it_o contain_v faith_n and_o love_n too_o though_o perfect_a love_n cast_v out_o torment_a fear_n 1_o joh._n 4.18_o yet_o perfect_a love_n cast_v in_o obey_v fear_n when_o abraham_n have_v offer_v up_o his_o son_n isaac_n that_o be_v a_o work_n of_o mighty_a faith_n but_o yet_o when_o god_n commend_v he_o for_o it_o he_o do_v not_o say_v now_o i_o know_v thou_o have_v a_o great_a faith_n but_o now_o i_o know_v thou_o fear_v god_n gen._n 22.12_o fear_n be_v all_o duty_n it_o be_v every_o grace_n it_o carry_v every_o particular_a duty_n and_o grace_n in_o the_o womb_n of_o it_o eccles_n 12.13_o let_v we_o hear_v the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o whole_a matter_n fear_v god_n and_o keep_v his_o commandment_n for_o this_o be_v the_o whole_a duty_n of_o man_n or_o a●_n be_v in_o the_o hebrew_n this_o be_v the_o whole_a man_n this_o be_v that_o which_o make_v a_o perfect_a and_o a_o complear_a christian_a a_o christian_a indeed_o but_o than_o three_o and_o last_o as_o the_o true_a fear_n and_o service_n of_o god_n be_v in_o scripture_n sometime_o conjoin_v so_o be_v they_o likewise_o confound_v and_o take_v promiscuous_o the_o one_o for_o the_o other_o as_o reciprocal_a and_o convertible_a term_n fear_v of_o god_n be_v worship_v or_o serve_v of_o god_n you_o may_v see_v this_o clear_o by_o two_o text_n of_o scripture_n confer_v or_o compare_v together_o matth._n 4.10_o say_v christ_n there_o to_o the_o devil_n thou_o shall_v worship_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o he_o only_o shall_v thou_o serve_v compare_v this_o now_o with_o deut._n 6.13_o and_o there_o you_o shall_v have_v it_o thus_o express_v thou_o shall_v fear_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o serve_v he_o and_o shall_v swear_v by_o his_o name_n that_o which_o in_o the_o one_o place_n be_v worship_n in_o the_o other_o be_v fear_n so_o again_o matth._n 15.9_o say_v christ_n there_o in_o vain_a do_v they_o worship_v i_o teach_v for_o doctrine_n the_o commandment_n of_o man_n now_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n from_o whence_o that_o scripture_n be_v take_v express_v it_o thus_o isa_n 29.13_o at_o part_v their_o fear_n towards_o i_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o precept_n of_o man_n they_o worship_v i_o according_a to_o the_o precept_n of_o man_n say_v christ_n their_o fear_n be_v teach_v by_o the_o precept_n of_o man_n say_v the_o prophet_n so_o that_o fear_n and_o worship_n or_o fear_v and_o service_n be_v identical_a one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n and_o thus_o have_v you_o here_o the_o point_n confirm_v by_o scripture_n that_o every_o true_a and_o faithful_a servant_n of_o god_n be_v a_o fear_a of_o god_n i_o shall_v now_o answer_v a_o objection_n and_o so_o proceed_v unto_o application_n the_o objection_n be_v this_o brief_o how_o do_v you_o say_v that_o the_o true_a and_o faithful_a servant_n of_o god_n be_v fearer_n of_o god_n or_o that_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v couple_v together_o yea_o that_o they_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n whenas_o in_o scripture_n we_o be_v require_v to_o serve_v god_n without_o fear_n as_o namely_o luke_n 1.74_o by_o this_o text_n it_o appear_v that_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n do_v not_o commingle_v much_o less_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n if_o our_o service_n must_v be_v do_v without_o fear_n how_o then_o do_v fear_n and_o service_n go_v together_o this_o be_v the_o objection_n belove_a by_o way_n of_o answer_n we_o must_v learn_v to_o distinguish_v of_o fear_n qui_fw-la benè_fw-la distinguit_fw-la we_o say_v benè_fw-la docet_fw-la he_o that_o distinguish_v well_o teach_v well_o there_o be_v a_o hellish_a fear_n and_o there_o be_v a_o holy_a fear_n a_o slavish_a fear_n and_o a_o sonlike_a fear_n the_o hellish_a or_o slavish_a fear_n be_v such_o as_o slave_n have_v of_o those_o or_o towards_o those_o to_o who_o they_o be_v in_o bondage_n it_o be_v a_o respect_n they_o carry_v to_o those_o in_o who_o power_n and_o under_o who_o command_n they_o be_v they_o do_v indeed_o that_o which_o be_v enjoin_v they_o but_o they_o neither_o love_v their_o commander_n nor_o take_v any_o complacency_n or_o delight_n in_o that_o which_o be_v command_v they_o what_o they_o do_v they_o do_v by_o coaction_n and_o enforcement_n and_o in_o fear_n of_o the_o whip_n such_o be_v the_o fear_n of_o god_n in_o reprobate_n and_o in_o wicked_a man_n they_o be_v strike_v with_o a_o kind_n of_o awe_n of_o god_n great_a and_o terrible_a majesty_n they_o do_v even_o tremble_v at_o his_o judgement_n they_o do_v it_o may_v be_v what_o be_v require_v but_o their_o obedience_n proceed_v not_o out_o of_o any_o love_n to_o god_n or_o out_o of_o any_o true_a affection_n to_o the_o service_n thus_o cain_n esau_n pharaoh_n ahab_n judas_n and_o other_o fear_v they_o have_v some_o apprehension_n of_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o that_o wring_v something_o from_o they_o in_o which_o otherwise_o of_o themselves_o they_o take_v no_o manner_n of_o delight_n cain_n cast_v down_o his_o countenance_n esau_n weep_v pharaoh_n let_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n go_v ahab_n humble_v himself_o judas_n repent_v as_o i_o can_v show_v you_o from_o several_a scripture_n but_o than_o second_o there_o be_v a_o holy_a filial_a and_o childlike_a fear_n and_o it_o be_v a_o fear_n to_o offend_v arise_v out_o of_o the_o sense_n and_o feel_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n as_o when_o the_o experience_n i_o have_v have_v in_o my_o own_o soul_n of_o god_n merciful_a and_o gracious_a deal_n with_o i_o make_v i_o to_o entertain_v a_o fear_n lest_o i_o shall_v abuse_v his_o love_n and_o turn_v his_o grace_n into_o wantonness_n and_o do_v aught_o that_o may_v displease_v his_o majesty_n as_o i_o show_v you_o before_o in_o the_o open_n of_o the_o doctrine_n and_o this_o kind_n of_o fear_n may_v be_v where_o be_v the_o great_a and_o firm_a yea_o the_o most_o respective_a love_n as_o betwixt_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n the_o husband_n and_o the_o wife_n this_o distinction_n of_o fear_n be_v thus_o premise_v it_o will_v be_v easy_a to_o untie_v the_o knot_n or_o to_o solve_v the_o querie_n when_o we_o be_v require_v to_o serve_v god_n without_o fear_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o foresay_a hellish_a servile_a or_o slavish_a fear_n when_o zacharies_n meaning_n in_o that_o luk._n 1._o be_v this_o whereas_o the_o face_n of_o god_n be_v natural_o a_o terror_n to_o we_o even_o as_o the_o face_n of_o a_o judge_n be_v to_o a_o malefactor_n and_o whereas_o our_o service_n be_v so_o full_a of_o defect_n and_o blemish_n as_o that_o we_o can_v have_v no_o courage_n to_o present_v they_o unto_o god_n nor_o hope_v that_o he_o will_v accept_v they_o this_o be_v the_o end_n of_o our_o redemption_n that_o be_v certain_o persuade_v of_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o of_o remission_n of_o sin_n by_o he_o this_o servile_a and_o slavish_a fear_n must_v be_v lay_v aside_o and_o we_o may_v come_v bold_o unto_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n and_o comfortable_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n for_o christ_n sake_n will_v accept_v even_o our_o imperfect_a and_o scant_a measure_n of_o obedience_n this_o servile_a fear_n now_o and_o the_o true_a service_n of_o god_n can_v stand_v together_o yea_o they_o be_v opposite_a and_o contrary_a one_o to_o another_o but_o now_o when_o i_o say_v in_o the_o doctrine_n that_o the_o true_a and_o faithful_a servant_n of_o god_n be_v fearer_n of_o god_n and_o that_o the_o fear_n and_o service_n of_o god_n be_v join_v together_o i_o intend_v as_o i_o tell_v you_o before_o a_o holy_a filial_a childlike_a and_o reverential_a fear_n and_o with_o such_o a_o fear_n every_o true_a servant_n of_o god_n fear_n god_n the_o fear_n and_o the_o service_n of_o god_n be_v put_v together_o and_o must_v ever_o go_v together_o nay_o without_o it_o we_o can_v never_o serve_v god_n true_o and_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v and_o thus_o have_v answer_v the_o objection_n i_o shall_v in_o the_o next_o place_n proceed_v unto_o application_n the_o use_v of_o the_o point_n shall_v be_v three_o 1._o for_o information_n 2._o of_o examination_n 3._o of_o

shall_v be_v for_o information_n be_v it_o so_o that_o the_o true_a and_o faithful_a servant_n of_o god_n be_v fearer_n of_o god_n why_o then_o it_o will_v in_o the_o first_o place_n follow_v by_o
