second_o our_o heart_n must_v be_v sanctify_v because_o the_o lord_n do_v look_v more_o to_o the_o principle_n from_o whence_o a_o thing_n come_v than_o at_o the_o the_o thing_n itself_o as_o indeed_o

no_o whether_o it_o it_o be_v from_o the_o general_a bounty_n and_o patience_n of_o god_n or_o from_o the_o special_a love_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n our_o heart_n will_v regard_v that_o most_o if_o we_o be_v spiritual_a now_o then_o look_v as_o a_o godly_a man_n be_v not_o satisfy_v with_o enjoy_v any_o good_a thing_n from_o god_n except_o he_o know_v it_o come_v from_o a_o

of_o love_n grace_n and_o holiness_n in_o our_o heart_n three_o according_a as_o the_o heart_n be_v so_o will_v the_o service_n be_v certain_o if_o the_o heart_n be_v unclean_a the_o duty_n will_v

when_o thou_o come_v to_o he_o the_o great_a reason_n why_o people_n come_v and_o worship_n god_n in_o a_o slight_a way_n it_o be_v because_o that_o they_o do_v not_o see_v god_n in_o his_o glory_n

ordinance_n it_o be_v the_o ordinance_n of_o spiritual_a nourishment_n of_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n and_o drink_v blood_n in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n now_o it_o must_v needs_o suppose_v that_o first_o there_o must_v be_v life_n before_o there_o can_v be_v any_o nourishment_n receive_v in_o if_o it_o be_v appoint_v to_o nourish_v and_o increase_v grace_n then_o sure_o there_o must_v be_v grace_n before_o what_o nourishment_n can_v a_o dead_a child_n take_v the_o very_a first_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o be_v do_v be_v nourishment_n here_o the_o word_n have_v power_n to_o convey_v

the_o end_n of_o the_o sacrament_n therefore_o it_o must_v be_v suppose_v that_o thou_o must_v have_v spiritual_a life_n there_o must_v come_v no_o dead_a soul_n to_o this_o ordinance_n but_o those_o who_o be_v quicken_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n they_o must_v come_v for_o nourishment_n three_o the_o act_n here_o require_v do_v note_n that_o only_o those_o that_o be_v holy_a and_o

what_o work_n of_o god_n have_v be_v upon_o the_o soul_n how_o god_n have_v bring_v the_o soul_n to_o himself_o and_o what_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v there_o and_o how_o we_o have_v be_v bring_v into_o covenant_n with_o god_n now_o if_o only_o those_o can_v receive_v worthy_o and_o be_v to_o come_v that_o first_o examine_v themselves_o then_o certain_o such_o only_a as_o be_v godly_a be_v to_o come_v for_o they_o only_o can_v perform_v those_o act_n that_o be_v require_v four_o it_o be_v a_o sacrament_n of_o communion_n with_o god_n and_o communion_n with_o the_o saint_n now_o what_o communion_n have_v light_a with_o darkness_n what_o fellowship_n have_v christ_n with_o belial_n if_o it_o be_v a_o sacrament_n of_o communion_n of_o come_v to_o the_o table_n of_o god_n will_v god_n have_v enemy_n to_o come_v to_o his_o table_n you_o will_v invite_v no_o enemy_n to_o your_o table_n but_o your_o child_n and_o friend_n so_o they_o must_v be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o the_o friend_n of_o god_n those_o that_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n and_o those_o that_o be_v his_o child_n that_o must_v sit_v at_o his_o table_n therefore_o they_o must_v be_v holy_a now_o this_o may_v suffice_v for_o that_o first_o thing_n that_o this_o be_v not_o a_o ordinance_n for_o all_o sort_n of_o people_n but_o such_o as_o have_v submit_v to_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n before_o such_o as_o have_v grace_n and_o ability_n to_o examine_v themselves_o of_o their_o grace_n and_o such_o as_o be_v child_n and_o reconcile_v to_o god_n and_o so_o be_v fit_a to_o sit_v at_o the_o table_n of_o god_n and_o to_o enjoy_v communion_n with_o he_o and_o with_o his_o son_n and_o with_o the_o saint_n for_o we_o be_v one_o body_n sacramental_o when_o we_o come_v to_o this_o holy_a ordinance_n all_o other_o therefore_o certain_o be_v to_o be_v keep_v from_o this_o sacrament_n but_o such_o 2_o the_o second_o thing_n will_v make_v it_o out_o more_o full_o and_o that_o be_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o we_o be_v holy_a ourselves_o and_o so_o all_o ignorant_a profane_a and_o scandalous_a yea_o all_o that_o be_v mere_o civil_a that_o can_v make_v out_o any_o work_n of_o godliness_n upon_o their_o heart_n in_o bring_v they_o to_o christ_n be_v exclude_v but_o 1_o it_o be_v to_o be_v do_v in_o a_o holy_a communion_n and_o be_v clear_a one_o of_o that_o place_n in_o 1_o cor._n 10._o 16_o 17._o the_o cup_n of_o blessing_n which_o we_o bless_v it_o be_v not_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v it_o not_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o then_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 17._o verse_n for_o we_o be_v many_o be_v one_o bread_n and_o one_o body_n therefore_o all_o that_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n they_o must_v so_o come_v as_o they_o must_v be_v one_o body_n one_o spiritual_a corporation_n this_o very_a consideration_n that_o those_o with_o who_o we_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n be_v one_o body_n with_o we_o it_o have_v a_o great_a deal_n in_o it_o for_o the_o help_a of_o we_o to_o sanctify_v

communion_n it_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v quest_n you_o will_v say_v must_v it_o be_v receive_v in_o a_o communion_n of_o saint_n what_o if_o wicked_a man_n do_v come_v there_o will_v that_o hinder_v we_o from_o sanctify_a god_n name_v in_o partake_v of_o the_o sacrament_n with_o they_o do_v not_o we_o find_v in_o scripture_n that_o the_o church_n have_v always_o wicked_a man_n among_o they_o

tell_v the_o church_n to_o tell_v the_o assembly_n of_o the_o saint_n when_o they_o meet_v together_o for_o so_o the_o word_n church_n do_v signify_v and_o we_o find_v in_o the_o 1_o cor._n 5._o

you_o can_v say_v that_o it_o be_v nothing_o to_o you_o if_o wicked_a man_n be_v there_o for_o you_o have_v not_o discharge_v your_o conscience_n and_o so_o you_o come_v to_o be_v defile_v and_o you_o

what_o a_o hand_n of_o god_n be_v against_o the_o very_a child_n of_o aaron_n a_o further_a note_n be_v this_o that_o god_n judgement_n we_o see_v sometime_o though_o the_o effect_n of_o they_o be_v visible_a yet_o they_o come_v in_o a_o invisible_a way_n for_o you_o shall_v find_v if_o you_o read_v on_o in_o this_o story_n that_o they_o be_v smite_v with_o fire_n from_o heaven_n but_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v what_o fire_n for_o it_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o consume_v their_o clothes_n not_o their_o body_n but_o go_v through_o all_o and_o strike_v they_o dead_a and_o no_o body_n can_v tell_v how_o god_n judgement_n do_v come_v in_o a_o way_n that_o be_v invisible_a if_o it_o have_v be_v in_o a_o visible_a flame_n of_o fire_n all_o will_v have_v see_v it_o and_o it_o will_v have_v

burn_v another_o note_n be_v this_o that_o though_o the_o life_n of_o man_n be_v dear_a and_o precious_a to_o god_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o so_o precious_a as_o his_o glory_n the_o glory_n of_o his_o name_n be_v a_o thousand_o thousand_o time_n more_o dear_a unto_o god_n than_o the_o life_n of_o thousand_o thousand_o of_o people_n the_o life_n of_o nadab_n and_o abihu_n must_v go_v that_o god_n may_v be_v sanctify_v if_o it_o come_v so_o in_o the_o way_n as_o i_o may_v so_o say_v the_o life_n of_o man_n and_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_n the_o glory_n of_o god_n must_v pass_v on_o and_o must_v have_v its_o course_n let_v the_o life_n of_o man_n go_v which_o way_n they_o will_n we_o think_v much_o to_o have_v the_o life_n of_o man_n take_v away_o but_o if_o we_o know_v what_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n mean_v and_o what_o infinite_a reason_n there_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v be_v glorify_v we_o will_v not_o think_v it_o much_o that_o the_o life_n of_o never_o so_o many_o man_n shall_v go_v for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n it_o be_v mercy_n that_o our_o life_n have_v not_o go_v many_o time_n for_o god_n glory_n how_o often_o may_v god_n have_v glorify_v himself_o in_o take_v away_o our_o life_n we_o have_v cause_n to_o bless_v he_o that_o our_o life_n have_v be_v preserve_v so_o long_o as_o they_o have_v again_o note_v that_o the_o near_a any_o man_n be_v unto_o god_n the_o more_o they_o have_v need_n take_v heed_n that_o they_o glorify_v he_o for_o they_o must_v expect_v to_o be_v spare_v the_o less_o if_o they_o sin_n against_o he_o nadab_n and_o abihu_n the_o priest_n of_o god_n and_o they_o come_v near_o to_o god_n yet_o by_o their_o transgression_n though_o i_o tell_v you_o we_o do_v not_o find_v in_o any_o place_n of_o scripture_n direct_o in_o word_n that_o this_o fire_n be_v forbid_v but_o they_o shall_v have_v gather_v god_n mind_n by_o consequence_n and_o therefore_o by_o the_o way_n i_o only_o note_v that_o we_o must_v not_o think_v to_o urge_v upon_o man_n in_o all_o thing_n strict_a command_n in_o very_a word_n but_o if_o it_o be_v command_v so_o as_o we_o may_v draw_v it_o by_o any_o consequence_n it_o be_v a_o command_n as_o now_o here_o for_o the_o negative_a they_o have_v not_o a_o negative_a prohibition_n in_o word_n yet_o they_o have_v it_o by_o consequence_n so_o for_o the_o affirmative_a though_o we_o have_v not_o the_o affirmative_a in_o express_a word_n yet_o if_o we_o may_v have_v it_o by_o consequence_n it_o be_v a_o affirmative_a as_o well_o as_o the_o negative_a when_o we_o have_v it_o by_o consequence_n but_o now_o the_o note_n of_o observation_n be_v that_o the_o near_a any_o come_v to_o god_n if_o they_o sin_n against_o he_o they_o must_v not_o expect_v to_o be_v spare_v do_v not_o think_v that_o god_n will_v spare_v you_o the_o more_o because_o you_o be_v professor_n of_o religion_n or_o because_o you_o do_v often_o worship_v he_o i_o suppose_v you_o that_o be_v acquaint_v with_o scripture_n know_v that_o place_n in_o amos_n 3._o 2._o you_o only_o have_v i_o know_v of_o all_o the_o family_n of_o the_o earth_n therefore_o i_o will_v punish_v you_o for_o all_o your_o iniquity_n another_o note_n be_v this_o that_o when_o a_o judgement_n be_v exemplary_a than_o we_o shall_v have_v recourse_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o see_v how_o god_n do_v make_v his_o word_n good_a in_o that_o judgement_n so_o moses_n do_v this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v do_v you_o see_v any_o remarkable_a hand_n of_o god_n in_o the_o execution_n of_o a_o judgement_n upon_o one_o have_v recourse_n to_o god_n word_n and_o present_o begin_v to_o think_v this_o what_o be_v there_o in_o god_n word_n against_o that_o sin_n that_o this_o man_n have_v be_v guilty_a of_o if_o you_o see_v a_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o a_o drunkard_n remember_v the_o threat_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n against_o drunkenness_n and_o so_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o unclean_a person_n swearer_n sabbath-breaker_n liar_n or_o any_o profane_a and_o ungodly_a person_n have_v recourse_n to_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n threaten_v in_o the_o word_n against_o such_o and_o so_o likewise_o concern_v scorner_n and_o opposer_n of_o religion_n remember_v what_o be_v say_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n against_o such_o and_o so_o learn_v to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n we_o may_v have_v mention_v some_o particular_a threat_n of_o god_n against_o particular_a sinner_n for_o the_o help_a of_o you_o that_o when_o you_o see_v exemplary_a judgement_n to_o have_v recourse_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o we_o let_v that_o pass_v a_o further_a note_n from_o this_o story_n be_v this_o that_o the_o great_a honour_n that_o god_n intend_v to_o his_o name_n it_o be_v the_o make_n of_o his_o name_n holy_a i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o they_o that_o draw_v nigh_o i_o and_o before_o all_o the_o people_n i_o will_v be_v glorify_v as_o moses_n shall_v say_v in_o god_n name_n i_o must_v and_o will_v have_v glory_n from_o the_o people_n and_o how_o by_o make_v my_o name_n appear_v to_o be_v holy_a this_o be_v the_o glory_n that_o i_o stand_v upon_o above_o all_o other_o thing_n that_o my_o

therefore_o i_o shall_v be_v brief_a and_o only_o now_o reckon_v up_o together_o and_o set_v before_o your_o view_n the_o several_a thing_n that_o be_v to_o be_v do_v for_o the_o sanctify_a of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o prayer_n first_o for_o prayer_n in_o that_o we_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n and_o it_o be_v a_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n that_o i_o suppose_v all_o of_o you_o can_v but_o acknowledge_v that_o it_o be_v a_o natural_a duty_n of_o worship_n the_o other_o be_v institute_v but_o this_o be_v natural_a it_o be_v natural_a for_o the_o creature_n to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o prayer_n wherein_o the_o creature_n tender_v up_o his_o homage_n to_o god_n and_o manifest_v his_o profession_n of_o his_o dependence_n upon_o god_n for_o all_o good_a that_o he_o have_v and_o acknowledge_v god_n as_o the_o author_n of_o all_o good_a therefore_o this_o be_v worship_n and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a part_n of_o worship_n prayer_n it_o be_v such_o a_o part_n of_o worship_n as_o sometime_o in_o scripture_n it_o be_v put_v for_o the_o whole_a worship_n of_o god_n he_o that_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v save_v that_o be_v he_o that_o worship_v god_n

that_o be_v that_o do_v not_o worship_v thou_o there_o one_o part_n of_o worship_n be_v put_v for_o the_o whole_a as_o be_v a_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n sure_o we_o must_v

and_o if_o the_o argument_n of_o christ_n be_v right_a as_o no_o question_n but_o it_o be_v that_o the_o temple_n be_v great_a than_o the_o gold_n upon_o the_o temple_n because_o the_o temple_n do_v
