than_o he_o can_v do_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o regenerate_a man_n be_v able_a to_o do_v more_o than_o he_o can_v do_v in_o these_o two_o particular_n 1._o first_o he_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v any_o duty_n or_o any_o thing_n 1_o god_n command_v according_a to_o the_o proportion_n of_o grace_n man_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v but_o if_o the_o duty_n or_o thing_n exceed_v the_o grace_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v than_o he_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o a_o extraordinary_a help_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o he_o can_v not_o do_v this_o before_o neither_o be_v it_o in_o the_o power_n of_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n to_o do_v it_o second_o he_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v any_o temptation_n or_o sin_n 2_o if_o it_o be_v not_o great_a or_o above_o the_o measure_n of_o grace_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v if_o it_o be_v a_o temptation_n of_o distrust_n or_o impatiency_n or_o presumption_n if_o it_o exceed_v not_o the_o measure_n of_o grace_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v he_o be_v able_a to_o put_v it_o to_o flight_n but_o if_o it_o do_v exceed_v than_o he_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o a_o extraordinary_a help_n of_o the_o spirit_n now_o the_o unregenerate_a man_n have_v no_o power_n to_o resist_v sin_n or_o temptation_n in_o this_o case_n but_o you_o will_v say_v again_o that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o power_n in_o the_o regenerate_a man_n for_o the_o apostle_n say_v gal._n 5._o 17._o 2._o the_o flesh_n lust_v against_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o spirit_n against_o 17._o the_o flesh_n and_o these_o be_v contrary_a one_o to_o the_o other_o so_o that_o you_o can_v do_v the_o thing_n that_o you_o will_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a that_o in_o the_o most_o sanctify_a man_n thatis_o there_o be_v corruption_n and_o this_o corruption_n 2._o will_v fight_v against_o the_o spirit_n and_o may_v sometime_o hinder_v good_a but_o it_o be_v then_o when_o it_o exceed_v the_o measure_n of_o grace_n he_o have_v receive_v neither_o be_v it_o always_o prevail_v in_o this_o kind_n for_o when_o it_o exceed_v not_o the_o grace_n the_o spirit_n overcome_v it_o neither_o do_v it_o always_o continue_v it_o may_v be_v in_o the_o heart_n but_o it_o can_v reign_v in_o the_o heart_n it_o may_v be_v in_o the_o heart_n as_o a_o thief_n in_o a_o house_n not_o to_o have_v residence_n and_o a_o dwell_a place_n but_o for_o a_o night_n and_o be_v go_v so_o this_o lust_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o regenerate_a man_n dwell_v not_o there_o that_o be_v it_o do_v not_o always_o hinder_v he_o from_o good_a but_o for_o a_o time_n and_o then_o depart_v but_o it_o be_v not_o thus_o with_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n sin_n take_v possession_n and_o keep_v possession_n of_o his_o heart_n the_o three_o consectary_n or_o use_n stand_v thus_o see_v the_o apostle_n say_v mortify_v that_o be_v do_v not_o only_o abstain_v from_o the_o 3_o outward_a action_n of_o sin_n but_o from_o the_o thought_n of_o the_o heart_n for_o mortification_n be_v a_o slay_v of_o the_o evil_a disposition_n of_o the_o heart_n aswell_o as_o the_o slay_v of_o the_o action_n of_o the_o body_n mortification_n be_v first_o inward_a and_o then_o outward_a hence_o we_o gather_v this_o point_n that_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a for_o a_o man_n to_o abstain_v from_o the_o action_n heart_n of_o sin_n but_o he_o must_v abstain_v from_o sin_n in_o his_o heart_n if_o he_o will_v prove_v his_o mortification_n to_o be_v true_a 2_o pet._n 2._o 14._o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o their_o eye_n be_v fullof_o adultery_n now_o lust_n be_v not_o in_o the_o eye_n but_o in_o the_o heart_n but_o by_o this_o he_o fhewe_v that_o it_o be_v the_o fullness_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o heart_n that_o fill_v the_o eye_n therefore_o look_v unto_o the_o heart_n for_o the_o action_n be_v but_o the_o branch_n but_o the_o root_n be_v in_o the_o heart_n that_o be_v whatsoever_o evil_a action_n be_v in_o the_o hand_n it_o have_v its_o first_o breed_n in_o the_o heart_n if_o therefore_o you_o will_v remove_v the_o effect_n you_o must_v first_o remove_v the_o cause_n now_o the_o cause_n if_o it_o bring_v forth_o a_o evil_a effect_n be_v the_o great_a evil_n as_o the_o cause_n of_o good_a be_v great_a than_o the_o effect_n it_o produce_v even_o so_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o heart_n because_o it_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o evil_a action_n be_v great_a than_o the_o evil_a that_o it_o produce_v then_o think_v not_o with_o you_o self_n that_o if_o you_o abstain_v from_o the_o outward_a gross_a action_n of_o sin_n that_o sin_n be_v mortify_v in_o you_o but_o go_v first_o unto_o the_o cause_n and_o see_v whether_o that_o evil_a disposition_n of_o the_o heart_n be_v mortify_v whether_o there_o be_v wrought_v in_o you_o a_o new_a disposition_n to_o good_a and_o a_o wither_a of_o all_o inordinate_a affection_n but_o you_o will_v say_v unto_o i_o our_o saviour_n say_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v judge_v by_o his_o work_n and_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v receive_v according_a to_o the_o object_n work_v do_v in_o the_o body_n by_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v not_o be_v judge_v by_o the_o thought_n of_o his_o heart_n but_o by_o his_o action_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a that_o man_n shall_v be_v answer_n judge_v by_o their_o work_n because_o action_n declare_v either_o that_o good_a that_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n or_o the_o evil_a that_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n so_o that_o he_o will_v judge_v the_o heart_n first_o as_o the_o cause_n and_o then_o the_o action_n as_o the_o effect_n rom._n 8._o 27._o it_o be_v say_v he_o that_o search_v the_o heart_n know_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o spirit_n so_o it_o be_v as_o true_a that_o he_o know_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v the_o action_n of_o the_o unregenerate_a part_n now_o as_o the_o sap_n be_v great_a in_o the_o root_n than_o in_o the_o branch_n so_o the_o great_a sin_n be_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o therefore_o it_o shall_v receive_v great_a punishment_n therefore_o if_o the_o root_n be_v not_o purge_v notwithstanding_o thou_o abstain_v from_o the_o outward_a action_n thou_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o mortify_a sin_n because_o thy_o heart_n be_v impure_a and_o see_v god_n will_v judge_v we_o by_o our_o heart_n if_o we_o have_v any_o care_n of_o our_o salvation_n let_v we_o labour_n to_o cut_v off_o the_o bud_n of_o sin_n that_o spring_n from_o the_o heart_n the_o four_o consectary_n or_o use_v stand_v thus_o see_v 4._o the_o apostle_n exhort_v the_o colossian_n to_o mortify_v their_o lust_n who_o have_v set_v upon_o this_o work_n already_o hence_o we_o note_v this_o point_n that_o no_o man_n be_v so_o holy_a or_o sanctify_a but_o he_o have_v need_v still_o to_o be_v exhort_v to_o mortification_n mortification_n for_o howsoever_o it_o be_v true_a that_o in_o the_o regenerate_a sin_n have_v receive_v a_o deadly_a wound_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o so_o kill_v but_o there_o be_v still_o sap_n in_o the_o root_n from_o whence_o spring_v many_o branch_n and_o therefore_o have_v need_n of_o continual_a mortification_n because_o the_o flesh_n will_v still_o lust_n against_o the_o spirit_n and_o although_o there_o be_v such_o corruption_n in_o they_o yet_o be_v they_o not_o under_o the_o power_n of_o it_o neither_o do_v it_o bear_v rule_v in_o they_o let_v they_o therefore_o that_o have_v not_o set_v upon_o this_o work_n of_o mortification_n now_o begin_v to_o mortify_v their_o lust_n and_o let_v all_o those_o that_o have_v already_o begin_v continue_v in_o this_o work_n thus_o much_o for_o the_o use_n but_o you_o will_v say_v unto_o i_o how_o shall_v we_o attain_v mortification_n this_o work_n of_o mortification_n and_o therefore_o here_o will_v i_o lay_v down_o some_o mean_n how_o a_o man_n may_v come_v to_o this_o work_n of_o mortification_n the_o first_o mean_n be_v to_o endeavour_v to_o get_v a_o willing_a heart_n heart_n to_o have_v your_o sin_n mortify_v that_o be_v a_o holy_a dislike_n and_o a_o holy_a loathe_n of_o they_o with_o a_o desire_n of_o the_o contrary_a grace_n if_o man_n do_v butsee_v whatan_n excellent_a estate_n regeneration_n be_v it_o will_v breed_v in_o they_o a_o holy_a desire_n of_o mortification_n therefore_o our_o saviour_n say_v when_o his_o disciple_n come_v to_o he_o and_o complain_v of_o the_o weakness_n of_o their_o faith_n matth._n 17._o if_o you_o have_v faith_n as_o a_o grain_n of_o mustardseed_n you_o shall_v say_v unto_o this_o mountain_n remove_v and_o it_o shall_v be_v remove_v by_o set_v forth_o the_o excellency_n of_o faith_n he_o take_v pain_n to_o work_v in_o they_o a_o desire_n of_o it_o even_o so_o if_o a_o man_n once_o can_v get_v a_o desire_n but_o to_o have_v his_o sin_n mortify_v

of_o a_o fault_n it_o be_v sin_n that_o be_v the_o defect_n of_o it_o man_n shall_v be_v subject_a to_o reason_n and_o reason_n shall_v cause_v he_o to_o submit_v himself_o unto_o the_o will_n of_o

do_v stamp_n on_o the_o very_a creature_n take_v a_o epistle_n or_o a_o learned_a writing_n that_o be_v make_v by_o art_n there_o may_v be_v logic_n rhetoric_n and_o grammar_n rule_v bring_v in_o to_o

fear_v or_o desire_v the_o object_n which_o reason_n apprehend_v now_o to_o draw_v this_o general_a division_n into_o two_o main_a head_n nature_n have_v plant_v a_o appetite_n in_o the_o creature_n to_o draw_v to_o its_o self_n that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o to_o cast_v away_o that_o which_o be_v evil_a therefore_o be_v these_o affection_n such_o as_o apprehend_v either_o good_a or_o evil_n

they_o more_o several_o and_o so_o to_o know_v they_o as_o they_o have_v reference_n to_o good_a or_o evil_n for_o except_o we_o know_v they_o thus_o it_o be_v worth_a nothing_o to_o we_o there_o be_v therefore_o three_o sort_n of_o affection_n natural_a affection_n carnal_a and_o spiritual_a first_o natural_a these_o affection_n arise_v from_o nature_n and_o tend_v to_o natural_a object_n as_o for_o example_n to_o desire_v meat_n and_o drink_n be_v natural_a but_o to_o desire_v it_o in_o excess_n be_v not_o natural_a because_o the_o object_n of_o natural_a affection_n be_v limit_v by_o nature_n namely_o so_o much_o and_o no_o more_o nature_n have_v certain_a measure_n and_o extent_n and_o limit_n and_o those_o she_o exceed_v not_o natural_a affection_n make_v we_o but_o even_o with_o beast_n second_o there_o be_v carnal_a affection_n which_o be_v lust_n that_o arise_v from_o the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n and_o those_o tend_v to_o evil_a object_n or_o good_a object_n in_o a_o evil_a manner_n those_o affection_n make_v we_o worse_o than_o the_o beast_n like_v unto_o the_o devil_n joh._n 8._o 44._o you_o be_v of_o your_o father_n the_o devil_n and_o his_o lust_n you_o will_v do_v that_o be_v those_o that_o have_v these_o lust_n be_v as_o like_o the_o devil_n as_o the_o son_n be_v like_o the_o father_n those_o that_o be_v bind_v with_o these_o bond_n be_v like_o he_o that_o be_v they_o come_v in_o a_o degree_n to_o the_o corruption_n the_o devil_n have_v in_o a_o great_a degree_n three_o spiritual_a affection_n be_v such_o as_o arise_v from_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v from_o the_o renew_n part_n of_o man_n and_o tend_v to_o good_a object_n in_o a_o holy_a manner_n natural_a make_v we_o no_o better_o than_o beast_n carnal_a than_o devil_n spiritual_a make_v we_o better_o than_o man_n like_v to_o god_n have_v his_o image_n new_o stamp_v on_o we_o they_o lift_v we_o up_o above_o man_n and_o make_v we_o like_a to_o angel_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o 3._o kind_n of_o affection_n in_o man_n we_o must_v only_o answer_v one_o question_n before_o we_o go_v any_o further_o the_o question_n be_v this_o whether_o there_o be_v no_o spiritual_a affection_n except_o they_o proceed_v from_o a_o general_a disposition_n because_o many_o man_n seem_v to_o have_v good_a flash_n now_o and_o then_o and_o so_o seem_v to_o be_v regenerate_v i_o answer_v no_o they_o be_v not_o spiritual_a regenerate_v affection_n because_o these_o affection_n in_o the_o soul_n howsoever_o they_o be_v good_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o author_n the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o put_v they_o in_o be_v not_o so_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o subject_n man_n who_o be_v yet_o in_o corruption_n and_o not_o renew_v if_o a_o man_n have_v never_o so_o much_o skill_n in_o music_n if_o the_o instrument_n be_v out_o of_o tune_n the_o music_n can_v be_v good_a so_o the_o affection_n as_o the_o spirit_n suggestion_n be_v good_a but_o in_o a_o carnal_a man_n they_o be_v as_o in_o a_o instrument_n out_o of_o tune_n it_o be_v true_a that_o those_o flash_n make_v way_n to_o conversion_n but_o only_o when_o the_o heart_n be_v in_o tune_n and_o in_o a_o good_a frame_n then_o be_v the_o affection_n good_a that_o be_v then_o only_o effective_o good_a so_o as_o to_o make_v the_o heart_n good_a and_o then_o the_o fruit_n will_v be_v good_a such_o as_o god_n will_v accept_v so_o much_o to_o show_v what_o affection_n be_v now_o we_o be_v to_o show_v when_o they_o be_v inordinate_a but_o first_o know_v the_o affection_n be_v place_v in_o the_o soul_n for_o inordinate_a the_o
