without_o faith_n the_o natural_a man_n will_v never_o do_v this_o this_o be_v the_o only_a property_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v a_o supernatural_a work_n in_o the_o soul_n and_o therefore_o the_o

take_v another_o thing_n till_o he_o have_v let_v his_o handful_n fall_v so_o when_o faith_n enter_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o man_n it_o empty_v the_o heart_n of_o self-love_n self-will_n that_o be_v it_o purge_v out_o the_o rubbish_n that_o be_v natural_o in_o every_o man_n heart_n and_o let_v all_o go_v to_o get_v hold_n on_o christ_n all_o shall_v go_v then_o life_n and_o honour_n profit_n

be_v that_o he_o will_v not_o lose_v his_o life_n or_o liberty_n or_o honour_n for_o christ_n because_o he_o see_v more_o power_n and_o good_a in_o the_o creature_n then_o in_o god_n again_o this_o make_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o christian_a and_o christian_n namely_o faith_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o some_o be_v weak_a and_o other_o be_v strong_a hence_o it_o be_v that_o some_o be_v more_o able_a than_o other_o for_o the_o great_a duty_n of_o religion_n as_o for_o example_n caleb_n and_o joshua_n can_v do_v more_o than_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o people_n and_o what_o be_v

the_o judgement_n of_o god_n so_o much_o unto_o you_o and_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o we_o beseech_v and_o entreat_v you_o so_o often_o to_o come_v in_o and_o receive_v christ_n and_o you_o shall_v be_v save_v time_n after_o time_n and_o day_n by_o day_n and_o yet_o we_o see_v how_o little_a efficacy_n the_o word_n have_v what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o the_o word_n want_v this_o

that_o you_o remain_v as_o ignorant_a and_o careless_a as_o ever_o you_o be_v but_o because_o you_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o be_v you_o want_v a_o true_a save_n and_o apply_v faith_n for_o if_o you_o have_v the_o word_n will_v work_v other_o effect_n in_o you_o then_o it_o do_v as_o for_o example_n if_o one_o shall_v tell_v a_o man_n that_o such_o a_o benefit_n or_o legacy_n be_v befall_v

which_o be_v in_o the_o spring_n of_o the_o day_n they_o have_v some_o measure_n of_o joy_n even_o as_o much_o as_o they_o participate_v of_o god_n and_o the_o reprobate_n that_o shall_v be_v damn_v and_o here_o dwell_v in_o the_o twilight_n they_o have_v some_o flash_n of_o joy_n according_a as_o god_n communicate_v himself_o in_o common_a gift_n and_o grace_n unto_o they_o but_o in_o a_o word_n so_o much_o of_o god_n so_o much_o of_o joy_n a_o man_n have_v now_o when_o god_n himself_o dwell_v in_o a_o man_n heart_n and_o if_o joy_v thus_o natural_o follow_v he_o it_o must_v needs_o refresh_v the_o heart_n of_o those_o in_o who_o he_o dwell_v so_o much_o for_o the_o three_o benefit_n a_o four_o benefit_n be_v this_o that_o he_o give_v life_n to_o those_o in_o who_o he_o dwell_v that_o be_v

be_v better_a than_o the_o best_a dead_a thing_n and_o among_o life_n the_o life_n of_o grace_n which_o christ_n give_v be_v the_o best_a life_n because_o it_o come_v near_a to_o the_o life_n of_o

into_o their_o heart_n he_o put_v life_n into_o they_o he_o make_v they_o live_v man_n again_o those_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n though_o they_o have_v some_o root_n of_o life_n continual_o in_o they_o yet_o they_o be_v often_o dead_a and_o dull_a and_o indispose_v to_o do_v any_o holy_a duty_n it_o be_v christ_n now_o that_o quicken_v they_o and_o make_v they_o ready_a to_o every_o good_a

that_o you_o be_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n and_o that_o the_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o you_o that_o be_v christ_n act_n no_o man_n be_v holy_a but_o he_o who_o christ_n consecrate_v and_o he_o

this_o be_v the_o sanctify_a of_o the_o heart_n this_o christ_n work_v wheresoever_o he_o come_v and_o my_o brethren_n this_o be_v not_o a_o easy_a thing_n to_o do_v and_o indeed_o no_o man_n can_v

grace_n now_o enable_v a_o man_n so_o to_o do_v the_o duty_n that_o there_o be_v not_o only_o the_o task_n the_o business_n the_o work_n do_v and_o pass_v over_o but_o it_o be_v do_v to_o purpose_n so_o when_o you_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n what_o be_v the_o end_n of_o your_o receive_n only_o to_o come_v or_o to_o come_v with_o some_o outward_a reverence_n or_o show_v of_o

of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n towards_o you_o that_o your_o sinful_a corruption_n may_v be_v more_o heal_v that_o the_o grace_n that_o be_v in_o you_o may_v be_v more_o enliven_v i_o say_v grace_n enable_v to_o do_v this_o and_o herein_o the_o power_n of_o it_o be_v see_v for_o without_o the_o power_n of_o grace_n you_o may_v do_v all_o these_o thing_n but_o not_o to_o purpose_n i_o can_v enlarge_v these_o thing_n but_o to_o finish_v this_o point_n i_o beseech_v you_o in_o a_o word_n consider_v whether_o you_o have_v the_o strength_n of_o grace_n in_o you_o or_o no_o otherwise_o you_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n in_o vain_a and_o let_v no_o man_n think_v i_o will_v make_v up_o this_o with_o my_o absence_n and_o fit_v myself_o against_o another_o time_n that_o be_v not_o the_o way_n not_o to_o sacrifice_v as_o well_o as_o to_o sacrifice_v amiss_o be_v a_o sin_n he_o that_o come_v not_o up_o to_o the_o passover_n as_o well_o as_o he_o that_o come_v uncircumcised_a be_v to_o be_v

say_v take_v heed_n and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o other_o argument_n to_o move_v man_n not_o to_o defer_v their_o conversion_n this_o be_v enough_o that_o if_o a_o man_n come_v without_o grace_n to_o the_o sacrament_n he_o eat_v and_o drink_v his_o own_o damnation_n if_o he_o defer_v to_o come_v he_o provoke_v the_o lord_n to_o anger_n and_o if_o he_o come_v unworthy_o without_o grace_n he_o
