this_o time_n be_v not_o those_o eternal_a thought_n of_o god_n and_o that_o settle_a will_n concern_v you_o discover_v to_o i_o but_o now_o i_o come_v to_o open_v what_o this_o will_n of_o god_n be_v and_o i_o tell_v you_o there_o be_v two_o branch_n of_o it_o 1._o that_o a_o people_n be_v give_v to_o christ_n by_o this_o will_n of_o god_n all_o that_o the_o father_n have_v give_v i_o say_v christ_n now_o there_o be_v a_o threefold_a give_v of_o a_o people_n to_o christ_n 1._o he_o give_v he_o a_o people_n as_o his_o child_n to_o be_v nurse_v and_o tender_v by_o he_o and_o so_o he_o speak_v to_o his_o disciple_n several_a time_n call_v they_o child_n child_n have_v you_o understand_v these_o thing_n etc._n etc._n they_o be_v but_o in_o the_o condition_n and_o state_n of_o child_n though_o they_o be_v man_n and_o here_o god_n put_v christ_n in_o the_o place_n of_o it_o mother_n and_o nurse_n to_o bring_v up_o those_o that_o be_v thus_o give_v he_o 1._o a_o mother_n receive_v a_o seed_n from_o her_o husband_n which_o be_v to_o be_v mould_v and_o form_v and_o grow_v up_o in_o the_o womb_n till_o it_o be_v a_o perfect_a child_n such_o a_o seed_n be_v give_v to_o christ_n to_o warm_v and_o cherish_v till_o it_o grow_v up_o to_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n and_o have_v the_o true_a proportion_n of_o a_o child_n and_o be_v like_o its_o father_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v the_o promise_n be_v sure_a to_o all_o the_o seed_n and_o again_o a_o seed_n shall_v serve_v he_o it_o shall_v be_v to_o the_o lord_n for_o a_o generation_n 2._o a_o mother_n nurse_v up_o her_o child_n when_o they_o be_v bear_v she_o feed_v and_o tend_v and_o oversee_v they_o till_o they_o be_v grow_v up_o to_o live_v of_o themselves_o and_o thus_o be_v a_o people_n give_v to_o truth_n that_o it_o may_v nourish_v and_o care_n for_o and_o deal_v tender_o and_o lead_v they_o on_o till_o they_o grow_v up_o to_o be_v strong_a man_n in_o the_o truth_n how_o do_v a_o mother_n bear_v and_o go_v through_o all_o with_o her_o child_n all_o its_o frowardness_n and_o crossness_n she_o take_v it_o up_o willing_o so_o this_o love_n of_o truth_n to_o its_o child_n it_o be_v not_o easy_o provoke_v it_o be_v not_o soon_o move_v but_o endure_v all_o thing_n and_o way_n and_o hope_n all_o thing_n it_o spare_v from_o itself_o to_o give_v to_o its_o child_n such_o a_o nurse_n be_v truth_n so_o tender_a and_o careful_a i_o have_v be_v as_o a_o nurse_n among_o you_o say_v paul_n if_o you_o perceive_v not_o this_o deal_n of_o truth_n towards_o you_o it_o be_v all_o but_o as_o a_o riddle_n if_o you_o be_v not_o see_v how_o tender_o and_o patient_o you_o have_v be_v deal_v with_o all_o along_o from_o your_o cradle_n nothing_o hard_a and_o unbearable_a have_v ever_o be_v put_v upon_o you_o but_o some_o issue_n have_v be_v make_v for_o deliverance_n you_o have_v be_v give_v into_o the_o care_n and_o nursery_n of_o truth_n to_o look_v after_o and_o provide_v for_o you_o nothing_o more_o be_v put_v upon_o you_o but_o open_v thy_o mouth_n wide_a and_o i_o will_v fill_v it_o etc._n etc._n there_o have_v be_v one_o with_o you_o to_o care_n for_o you_o when_o you_o have_v sleep_v and_o slight_v and_o not_o consider_v the_o day_n of_o your_o visitation_n you_o have_v little_o consider_v what_o it_o have_v cost_v to_o enjoy_v the_o breast_n that_o you_o may_v suck_v at_o daily_a what_o a_o live_a ministry_n you_o be_v entrust_v with_o and_o yet_o wait_v upon_o you_o it_o reach_v all_o that_o come_v near_o it_o none_o that_o have_v come_v among_o we_o have_v go_v hence_o without_o the_o power_n of_o this_o truth_n convince_a and_o make_v they_o acknowledge_v that_o of_o a_o truth_n god_n be_v among_o we_o 2._o god_n give_v christ_n a_o people_n as_o his_o brethren_n when_o they_o be_v grow_v up_o to_o that_o state_n as_o he_o call_v the_o church_n my_o sister_n my_o spouse_n and_o in_o be_v thus_o give_v to_o christ_n he_o manifest_v these_o three_o thing_n to_o the_o soul_n 1._o he_o open_v that_o it_o be_v of_o the_o same_o stock_n and_o kindred_n with_o himself_o as_o it_o be_v say_v at_o the_o second_o time_n joseph_n be_v make_v know_v to_o his_o brethren_n now_o that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o the_o word_n of_o life_n shall_v be_v so_o nigh_o relate_v as_o a_o brother_n and_o sister_n this_o be_v wonderful_a it_o be_v too_o high_a to_o be_v express_v by_o i_o in_o word_n or_o for_o you_o to_o conceive_v of_o but_o yet_o there_o be_v a_o generation_n a_o people_n that_o shall_v justify_v this_o wisdom_n that_o shall_v know_v this_o portion_n be_v befall_v they_o that_o they_o be_v of_o the_o same_o stock_n with_o the_o lord_n jesus_n the_o word_n of_o life_n that_o they_o be_v bear_v from_o above_o i_o be_o not_o of_o this_o world_n and_o these_o be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n say_v christ_n they_o be_v of_o one_o world_n and_o one_o kingdom_n and_o one_o country_n therefore_o he_o say_v my_o sheep_n hear_v my_o voice_n and_o the_o voice_n of_o a_o stranger_n they_o will_v not_o hear_v they_o know_v not_o the_o voice_n of_o stranger_n they_o be_v not_o of_o that_o country_n nor_o language_n and_o so_o can_v understand_v no_o other_o language_n but_o the_o word_n of_o life_n this_o be_v open_v to_o the_o soul_n when_o it_o be_v thus_o give_v over_o to_o christ_n as_o a_o sister_n one_o of_o the_o same_o stock_n bear_v from_o the_o same_o love_n as_o it_o be_v in_o jeremy_n i_o have_v love_v thou_o of_o old_a with_o a_o everlasting_a love_n etc._n etc._n 2._o christ_n open_v to_o the_o soul_n when_o it_o be_v thus_o give_v to_o he_o the_o privilege_n it_o be_v to_o have_v with_o he_o that_o it_o be_v bear_v to_o the_o same_o inheritance_n and_o portion_n that_o he_o himself_o have_v and_o without_o this_o what_o be_v all_o preach_n to_o you_o if_o this_o portion_n be_v not_o make_v know_v as_o belong_v to_o you_o and_o none_o can_v read_v this_o seven-sealed_n book_n but_o the_o word_n of_o life_n unless_o he_o read_v thy_o portion_n to_o thou_o thou_o can_v never_o know_v it_o unless_o he_o witness_v to_o thy_o soul_n as_o he_o do_v to_o his_o disciple_n the_o father_n himself_o love_v you_o and_o if_o he_o ever_o open_a this_o to_o you_o it_o must_v be_v when_o you_o be_v grow_v up_o to_o this_o stature_n to_o be_v give_v he_o as_o a_o sister_n as_o brethren_n for_o while_o child_n and_o babe_n you_o have_v not_o understanding_n you_o be_v not_o capable_a to_o know_v it_o though_o it_o be_v never_o so_o often_o tell_v you_o o_o lord_n that_o you_o be_v at_o a_o strait_a to_o have_v this_o open_v for_o your_o life_n will_v ever_o hang_v in_o doubt_n till_o this_o portion_n shall_v establish_v and_o settle_v and_o put_v you_o out_o of_o all_o fear_n 3._o hence_o this_o follow_v and_o be_v open_v to_o the_o soul_n that_o it_o be_v now_o liable_a to_o be_v marry_v to_o christ_n and_o become_v his_o wife_n it_o be_v a_o true_a type_n among_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n they_o be_v not_o to_o marry_v out_o of_o their_o own_o stock_n and_o kindred_n all_o strange_a wife_n be_v forbid_v so_o christ_n marry_v not_o out_o of_o his_o own_o line_n out_o of_o his_o own_o stock_n he_o can_v join_v to_o the_o stock_n of_o the_o devil_n but_o such_o as_o be_v his_o sister_n bear_v of_o one_o father_n spring_v from_o one_o love_n they_o may_v become_v a_o wife_n for_o he_o those_o two_o link_n be_v join_v together_o in_o the_o canticle_n my_o sister_n my_o spouse_n but_o if_o no_o sister_n first_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o be_v his_o spouse_n i_o have_v tell_v you_o often_o gold_n and_o sand_n can_v be_v run_v together_o into_o one_o lump_n and_o it_o will_v sure_o grow_v up_o more_o manifest_a that_o all_o relation_n what_o ever_o will_v die_v and_o

all_o these_o relation_n will_v die_v etc._n etc._n if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o sure_a bond_n to_o hold_v fast_o for_o ever_o 3._o god_n give_v a_o people_n to_o christ_n as_o a_o spouse_n a_o wife_n give_v into_o his_o bosom_n and_o here_o two_o thing_n come_v in_o 1._o serviceableness_n and_o subjection_n to_o the_o husband_n that_o be_v the_o law_n give_v at_o the_o creation_n thy_o desire_n

indeed_o do_v you_o think_v it_o be_v the_o lord_n voice_n that_o he_o speak_v his_o very_a word_n to_o you_o alas_o what_o a_o mist_n do_v the_o world_n live_v in_o how_o do_v they_o go_v to_o

be_v it_o do_v god_n speak_v to_o i_o of_o a_o certain_a or_o be_v it_o only_o the_o voice_n of_o a_o man_n if_o it_o be_v man_n only_o then_o what_o do_v i_o hear_v it_o be_v a_o vain_a service_n
