keep_v your_o heart_n pure_a for_o they_o who_o have_v pure_a heart_n may_v quick_o find_v their_o heart_n very_o impure_a unless_o they_o look_v narrow_o to_o it_o a_o heart_n that_o be_v make_v

a_o heart-stealing_a continual_o and_o especial_o when_o you_o be_v at_o a_o sermon_n or_o a_o holy_a duty_n and_o if_o he_o can_v but_o steal_v away_o your_o heart_n he_o care_v not_o how_o many_o

must_v be_v continual_o wash_v we_o must_v go_v daily_o to_o the_o fountain_n open_v for_o sin_n and_o for_o uncleanness_n we_o must_v wash_v our_o heart_n by_o the_o renew_a act_n of_o repentance_n confess_v our_o sin_n bewail_v our_o sin_n mortify_v our_o sin_n this_o be_v a_o great_a work_n for_o we_o if_o you_o have_v pure_a heart_n look_v to_o it_o that_o you_o keep_v they_o pure_a you_o

the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o all_o because_o they_o look_v not_o after_o they_o you_o must_v sweep_v down_o the_o cobweb_n and_o throw_v out_o the_o dirt_n every_o day_n if_o you_o will_v keep_v your_o heart_n clean_o and_o i_o will_v press_v all_o i_o have_v say_v by_o these_o four_o consideration_n look_v to_o it_o that_o you_o have_v pure_a heart_n and_o that_o you_o keep_v your_o heart_n pure_a first_o upon_o this_o consideration_n which_o you_o find_v in_o psal_n 18._o 26._o with_o the_o pure_a thou_o will_v show_v thyself_o pure_a with_o the_o merciful_a thou_o will_v show_v thyself_o merciful_a with_o a_o upright_a man_n thou_o will_v show_v thyself_o upright_o with_o the_o pure_a thou_o will_v show_v thyself_o pure_a ay_o but_o if_o a_o man_n be_v not_o pure_a will_v god_n show_v himself_o impure_a towards_o he_o no_o such_o thing_n let_v we_o be_v what_o we_o will_v god_n be_v ever_o the_o same_o nothing_o can_v turn_v he_o out_o of_o his_o purity_n but_o the_o meaning_n be_v if_o we_o be_v pure_a pure_a in_o heart_n god_n will_v show_v himself_o pure_a to_o we_o that_o be_v he_o will_v perform_v all_o thing_n he_o will_v be_v that_o to_o we_o which_o he_o have_v promise_v he_o will_v be_v all_o that_o to_o we_o which_o we_o can_v desire_v with_o the_o pure_a thou_o will_v show_v thyself_o pure_a and_o he_o say_v with_o the_o froward_a thou_o will_v show_v thyself_o froward_a as_o god_n know_v how_o to_o deal_v with_o man_n in_o way_n of_o evil_a to_o hit_v they_o according_a to_o what_o they_o be_v with_o the_o froward_a thou_o will_v show_v thyself_o froward_a not_o that_o there_o be_v any_o frowardness_n or_o passion_n in_o the_o lord_n but_o man_n shall_v be_v deal_v with_o according_a to_o their_o way_n they_o that_o will_v wrestle_v with_o god_n as_o the_o word_n there_o signify_v he_o will_v pay_v they_o in_o their_o own_o coin_n and_o so_o with_o the_o pure_a thou_o will_v show_v thyself_o pure_a and_o then_o second_o look_v to_o this_o purity_n for_o then_o all_o thing_n be_v pure_a to_o you_o as_o god_n will_v show_v himself_o pure_a to_o you_o so_o if_o you_o be_v pure_a all_o thing_n will_v be_v pure_a to_o you_o titus_n 1._o 15._o unto_o the_o pure_a all_o thing_n be_v pure_a but_o unto_o they_o that_o be_v defile_v and_o unbelieving_a be_v nothing_o pure_a here_o be_v a_o very_a strong_a argument_n to_o press_v you_o to_o this_o purity_n of_o heart_n to_o the_o pure_a all_o thing_n be_v pure_a to_o the_o impure_a nothing_o be_v pure_a why_o be_v it_o that_o to_o the_o pure_a all_o thing_n be_v pure_a
