be_v like_o a_o strong_a fort_n or_o garrison_n to_o a_o christian_n grace_n that_o keep_v it_o safe_a it_o may_v be_v assault_v and_o beleaguer_v but_o shall_v never_o receive_v a_o mortal_a wound_n it_o be_v the_o great_a security_n of_o a_o christian_a that_o god_n will_v not_o trust_v he_o with_o the_o root_n and_o principle_n of_o grace_n that_o shall_v never_o be_v in_o thy_o own_o keep_n he_o trust_v thou_o with_o the_o exercise_n of_o grace_n but_o not_o with_o the_o principle_n and_o root_n no_o he_o keep_v that_o himself_o he_o be_v both_o the_o garrison_n and_o the_o commander_n in_o it_o and_o you_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o that_o be_v impregnable_a 2._o god_n be_v the_o strength_n of_o a_o christian_n heart_n when_o the_o infuse_a habit_n of_o grace_n fail_v and_o sin_n grow_v strong_a and_o vigorous_a by_o heal_v and_o restore_v he_o a_o christian_a never_o fail_v in_o the_o exercise_n of_o grace_n but_o sin_n give_v he_o a_o wound_n and_o therefore_o david_n pray_v lord_n heal_v my_o soul_n for_o i_o have_v sin_v psal_n 41.4_o and_o what_o david_n pray_v for_o god_n promise_v to_o his_o people_n hos_fw-la 14.4_o i_o will_v heal_v their_o backslide_n the_o

the_o soul_n in_o this_o case_n and_o will_v heal_v their_o disease_n and_o so_o he_o do_v david_n falling-sickness_n for_o which_o he_o return_v the_o tribute_n of_o praise_n psal_n 103.3_o my_o soul_n praise_v thou_o the_o lord_n and_o all_o that_o be_v within_o i_o praise_v his_o holy_a name_n who_o heal_v all_o thy_o disease_n david_n have_v many_o disease_n upon_o he_o once_o for_o one_o disease_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o another_o i_o but_o god_n heal_v all_o and_o raise_v he_o up_o again_o and_o herein_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n do_v shine_v forth_o with_o great_a lustre_n and_o glory_n that_o even_o ravish_v his_o soul_n in_o the_o sense_n thereof_o as_o it_o appear_v wonderful_a in_o preserve_v spiritual_a life_n and_o the_o root_n of_o grace_n so_o it_o be_v no_o less_o to_o be_v admire_v for_o its_o heal_n and_o restore_v virtue_n that_o it_o put_v forth_o upon_o the_o soul_n when_o spiritual_a disease_n have_v seize_v upon_o it_o you_o have_v a_o notable_a place_n for_o this_o cant._n 8.5_o i_o raise_v thou_o up_o under_o the_o appletree_n they_o be_v the_o word_n of_o christ_n to_o his_o spouse_n she_o have_v be_v feed_v herself_o upon_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n of_o earthly_a delight_n and_o sensual_a pleasure_n until_o she_o can_v stand_v upon_o her_o foot_n no_o long_o and_o there_o she_o fall_v and_o lie_v i_o but_o then_o christ_n come_v to_o she_o seasonable_o take_v she_o by_o the_o hand_n and_o raise_v she_o up_o green_a fruit_n will_v cause_v distemper_n in_o the_o body_n natural_a and_o sensual_a delight_n and_o pleasure_n will_v cause_v disease_n in_o the_o body_n spiritual_a none_o can_v cure_v they_o but_o christ_n when_o thou_o be_v fall_v under_o the_o appletree_n he_o must_v raise_v thou_o up_o nay_o christ_n will_v do_v it_o though_o he_o may_v suffer_v the_o poor_a soul_n to_o fall_v yet_o he_o will_v not_o suffer_v it_o to_o lie_v and_o perish_v this_o be_v one_o main_a difference_n between_o the_o fall_v of_o a_o gracious_a man_n into_o sin_n and_o the_o fall_n of_o a_o wicked_a man_n god_n let_v a_o wicked_a man_n fall_v and_o lie_v in_o his_o sin_n as_o he_o fall_v willing_o and_o resolve_o so_o he_o lie_v wretched_o and_o desperate_o in_o his_o sin_n but_o as_o a_o godly_a man_n fall_v through_o a_o weakness_n of_o grace_n so_o god_n pity_v he_o and_o raise_v he_o up_o again_o peter_n fall_v foul_o when_o he_o deny_v his_o master_n but_o he_o do_v not_o fall_v final_o christ_n raise_v he_o up_o and_o restore_v he_o to_o his_o former_a health_n and_o soundness_n so_o you_o may_v see_v matth._n 26.75_o and_o peter_n remember_v the_o word_n of_o jesus_n and_o he_o go_v out_o and_o weep_v bitter_o the_o way_n that_o christ_n take_v to_o heal_v the_o backslide_n of_o his_o people_n be_v to_o break_v their_o heart_n and_o melt_v they_o into_o godly_a sorrow_n when_o poor_a soul_n have_v be_v almost_o drown_v in_o the_o way_n of_o sin_n he_o drown_v their_o sin_n in_o the_o red_a sea_n of_o godly_a sorrow_n the_o soul_n swim_v aloft_o but_o his_o sin_n sink_v to_o the_o bottom_n that_o it_o may_v rise_v no_o more_o 3._o god_n be_v the_o strength_n of_o a_o christian_n heart_n when_o grace_n fail_v by_o work_v a_o new_a creation_n upon_o the_o heart_n the_o give_v of_o grace_n at_o first_o be_v a_o creation_n and_o hence_o new_a convert_v be_v call_v new_a creature_n so_o the_o strengthen_v weak_a grace_n and_o revive_v and_o renew_v of_o grace_n be_v no_o less_o a_o creation_n it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o a_o almighty_a power_n upon_o the_o soul_n and_o therefore_o david_n pray_v for_o it_o under_o this_o notion_n create_v in_o i_o a_o clean_a heart_n o_o god_n and_o renew_v a_o right_a spirit_n within_o i_o psal_n 50.10_o god_n put_v forth_o the_o same_o power_n in_o strengthen_v the_o weakness_n of_o grace_n as_o he_o do_v in_o give_v the_o first_o act_n of_o grace_n as_o grace_n be_v not_o man_n creature_n but_o go_n we_o be_v say_v the_o apostle_n god_n workmanship_n create_v in_o christ_n jesus_n unto_o good_a work_n eph._n 2.10_o so_o the_o renew_n and_o revive_v grace_n be_v not_o man_n work_n but_o go_n when_o he_o see_v a_o poor_a christian_a lie_n languish_v that_o he_o be_v scarce_o able_a to_o put_v forth_o one_o act_n of_o grace_n he_o can_v neither_o believe_v nor_o love_n nor_o obey_v that_o satan_n make_v a_o prey_n of_o he_o and_o be_v ready_a to_o carry_v he_o away_o captive_a as_o his_o prisoner_n god_n create_v new_a strength_n and_o a_o new_a life_n and_o a_o new_a glory_n upon_o the_o soul_n if_o a_o christian_a have_v his_o winter_n he_o shall_v have_v his_o spring_n also_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v always_o without_o fruit_n most_o full_a be_v that_o promise_n hos_n 14.5_o 6._o i_o will_v be_v as_o the_o dew_n unto_o israel_n he_o shall_v grow_v as_o the_o lily_n and_o cast_v forth_o his_o root_n as_o lebanon_n his_o branch_n shall_v spread_v and_o his_o beauty_n shall_v be_v as_o the_o olive_n tree_n and_o his_o smell_n as_o lebanon_n observe_v god_n method_n in_o work_v upon_o decay_a christian_n first_o he_o heal_v their_o backslide_n so_o ver_fw-la 4._o i_o will_v heal_v their_o backslide_n i_o but_o that_o be_v not_o all_o for_o without_o divine_a influence_n the_o soul_n will_v be_v as_o apt_a to_o relapse_n as_o ever_o and_o therefore_o god_n promise_v as_o a_o further_a act_n of_o grace_n that_o he_o will_v be_v as_o the_o dew_n unto_o israel_n dew_n be_v of_o a_o fructify_a and_o refresh_a nature_n it_o call_v forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o earth_n when_o they_o lie_v hide_v in_o the_o root_n of_o tree_n and_o herb_n even_o so_o be_v divine_a influence_n it_o be_v of_o a_o fructify_a nature_n and_o call_v forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o grace_n when_o they_o lie_v hide_v in_o the_o root_n thereof_o let_v but_o god_n send_v forth_o his_o power_n and_o grace_n will_v send_v forth_o new_a bud_n and_o blossom_n of_o holiness_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o new_a face_n upon_o a_o christian_n he_o shall_v grow_v as_o the_o lilliy_n cast_v forth_o his_o root_n as_o lebanon_n his_o branch_n shall_v spread_v and_o his_o beauty_n shall_v be_v as_o the_o olive_n and_o his_o smell_n as_o lebanon_n 4._o god_n be_v the_o strength_n of_o a_o christian_n heart_n by_o draw_v forth_o much_o good_a out_o of_o this_o great_a evil_n it_o be_v a_o sore_a evil_n for_o a_o christian_n to_o decay_v in_o grace_n and_o to_o fall_v into_o sin_n i_o but_o god_n work_v good_a out_o of_o this_o evil_n four_o thing_n god_n work_v by_o this_o and_o they_o be_v all_o good_a for_o he_o 1._o hereby_o god_n discover_v that_o corruption_n that_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n as_o when_o the_o water_n ebb_v and_o grow_v low_a than_o the_o earth_n appear_v than_o you_o may_v see_v what_o be_v at_o the_o bottom_n so_o when_o grace_n ebb_v and_o grow_v low_a than_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o heart_n appear_v than_o it_o be_v quick_o know_v what_o foul_a dregs_o be_v at_o the_o bottom_n there_o be_v many_o a_o christian_n that_o little_o think_v how_o full_a of_o sin_n his_o heart_n be_v until_o his_o grace_n grow_v languid_a and_o weak_a and_o then_o he_o come_v to_o have_v a_o sad_a experience_n thereof_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o david_n when_o grace_n become_v so_o weak_a in_o he_o as_o not_o to_o
