gracious_a always_o be_v not_o these_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n where_o be_v thy_o obedience_n therein_o when_o thy_o company_n be_v idle_a thy_o speech_n vain_a likewise_o pray_v continual_o that_o be_v at_o least_o twice_o a_o a_o day_n it_o must_v be_v frequent_a and_o fervent_a too_o when_o no_o pain_n be_v take_v herein_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n you_o be_v disobedient_a thus_o you_o may_v examine_v yourselves_o by_o other_o commandment_n and_o pitch_n upon_o that_o which_o you_o be_v most_o ready_a to_o fail_v in_o now_o when_o i_o urge_v this_o as_o a_o necessary_a concomitant_a of_o grace_n the_o meaning_n be_v not_o that_o it_o be_v a_o perfect_a subjection_n in_o mean_v every_o thing_n but_o such_o that_o a_o man_n do_v go_v about_o it_o with_o all_o his_o soul_n and_o make_v it_o his_o work_n a_o man_n heart_n may_v be_v a_o temple_n for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n yet_o evil_a thought_n and_o lust_n may_v pass_v through_o but_o there_o be_v not_o a_o table_n set_v up_o there_o for_o they_o sin_n have_v not_o quiet_a possession_n in_o they_o they_o set_v up_o no_o idol_n of_o riches_n or_o pleasure_n though_o they_o may_v be_v overtake_v and_o fail_v in_o give_v due_a respect_n to_o these_o command_n yet_o they_o draw_v not_o out_o they_o spin_v not_o the_o thread_n of_o any_o sin_n throughout_o the_o course_n of_o their_o life_n whatever_o it_o be_v if_o a_o man_n lie_v in_o it_o from_o day_n to_o day_n it_o be_v disobedience_n and_o your_o purpose_n must_v be_v resolute_a the_o divorce_n must_v be_v full_a without_o any_o secret_a linger_n after_o the_o lust_n forsake_v though_o by_o a_o accident_n you_o may_v be_v overtake_v by_o it_o yet_o this_o be_v your_o resolution_n there_o be_v sincerity_n see_v another_o give_v they_o over_o but_o for_o necessity_n with_o a_o month_n mind_n to_o return_v to_o they_o again_o as_o phaltiel_n that_o when_o the_o king_n send_v for_o his_o wife_n send_v she_o because_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o it_o but_o yet_o go_v weep_v after_o she_o 2_o sam._n 3_o 16._o so_o it_o be_v with_o we_o we_o 16_o let_v go_v our_o sin_n but_o go_v weep_v after_o they_o the_o heart_n be_v not_o clear_a of_o they_o and_o consider_v well_o the_o ground_n of_o it_o why_o it_o must_v be_v in_o every_o thing_n in_o thought_n and_o word_n and_o why_o disobedience_n in_o require_v the_o small_a commandment_n as_o in_o idle_a word_n not_o endeavour_v to_o keep_v your_o heart_n clean_o your_o affection_n pure_a do_v thus_o put_v a_o man_n out_o of_o the_o stare_n of_o grace_n and_o that_o such_o have_v not_o take_v christ_n be_v because_o all_o the_o commandment_n be_v equal_o command_v and_o though_o they_o fall_v upon_o differ_v object_n and_o so_o be_v different_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o commander_n will_v and_o therefore_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n a_o disobedience_n to_o the_o small_a be_v a_o disobedience_n as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o great_a now_o the_o threaten_n be_v against_o disobedient_a person_n because_o every_o disobedient_a person_n cast_v away_o the_o lord_n as_o saul_n do_v that_o be_v he_o refuse_v to_o have_v he_o his_o governor_n now_o he_o that_o do_v so_o can_v be_v save_v for_o he_o have_v not_o take_v christ_n for_o his_o head_n and_o husband_n whosoever_o shall_v keep_v the_o whole_a law_n and_o yet_o fail_v in_o one_o point_n 10._o he_o be_v guilty_a of_o all_o that_o be_v it_o be_v a_o disobedience_n to_o the_o commander_n in_o what_o commandment_n soever_o it_o be_v though_o but_o in_o one_o thing_n thou_o have_v refuse_v the_o lawgiver_n and_o be_v a_o rebel_n against_o he_o stand_v out_o against_o any_o one_o thing_n make_v a_o rebel_n against_o a_o prince_n if_o he_o stubborn_o refuse_v to_o obey_v in_o one_o thing_n as_o well_o as_o in_o a_o thousand_o a_o second_o rule_n to_o try_v our_o sincerity_n of_o subjection_n subjection_n be_v to_o consider_v the_o manner_n of_o it_o consider_v whether_o you_o be_v subject_a as_o the_o wife_n be_v to_o her_o husband_n which_o be_v the_o main_a thing_n intimate_v in_o this_o subjection_n here_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o be_v subject_n in_o the_o outward_a man_n out_o of_o necessity_n and_o to_o obey_v from_o the_o heart_n the_o form_n of_o doctrine_n etc._n etc._n it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o be_v subject_a as_o a_o servant_n another_o thing_n to_o be_v subject_a as_o a_o wife_n who_o be_v subject_a not_o of_o coaction_n or_o necessity_n but_o free_o and_o willing_o out_o of_o love_n because_o she_o will_v not_o grieve_v her_o husband_n the_o saint_n delight_n lie_v in_o communion_n with_o god_n so_o as_o their_o heart_n be_v not_o at_o rest_n when_o they_o stand_v not_o in_o good_a term_n with_o he_o they_o can_v let_v any_o uneven_a reckon_n to_o lie_v between_o he_o and_o they_o they_o love_v he_o and_o therefore_o dare_v not_o disobey_v he_o and_o this_o arise_v from_o a_o persuasion_n what_o ever_o he_o command_v or_o inflict_v it_o be_v good_a and_o just_a and_o equal_a then_o he_o willing_o obey_v and_o suffer_v thus_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n you_o shall_v see_v what_o kind_n of_o one_o it_o be_v shall_v i_o not_o drink_v the_o cup_n which_o my_o father_n have_v give_v i_o that_o be_v i_o will_v not_o drink_v this_o bitter_a cup_n not_o only_o because_o of_o necessity_n i_o must_v but_o see_v my_o father_n will_n be_v i_o shall_v drink_v it_o and_o he_o have_v prepare_v it_o for_o i_o i_o will_v drink_v it_o hence_o many_o a_o woman_n will_v say_v shall_v i_o not_o do_v that_o which_o my_o husband_n will_v have_v i_o to_o do_v he_o be_v wise_a and_o love_v i_o and_o he_o have_v reason_n for_o what_o he_o command_v other_o of_o the_o sts._n have_v yield_v obedience_n thus_o unto_o the_o lord_n as_o eli_n when_o news_n be_v bring_v to_o he_o that_o all_o his_o house_n shall_v be_v cut_v off_o say_v he_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n let_v he_o do_v as_o seem_v good_a in_o his_o eye_n it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o love_v i_o take_v care_n of_o i_o let_v he_o do_v what_o please_v he_o i_o be_o content_a and_o willing_a to_o subject_v myself_o another_o may_v be_v subject_a to_o his_o commandment_n but_o it_o be_v of_o necessity_n on_o the_o contrary_a the_o saint_n who_o love_n and_o prize_n communion_n with_o he_o and_o will_v not_o loose_v it_o will_v have_v no_o interruption_n so_o also_o job_n 2._o 10._o we_o have_v receive_v good_a of_o the_o lord_n 10_o and_o shall_v we_o not_o receive_v evil_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v sure_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o have_v do_v i_o so_o much_o good_a as_o already_o i_o have_v receive_v from_o he_o if_o his_o purpose_n have_v not_o be_v good_a towards_o i_o and_o therefore_o if_o some_o evil_n by_o his_o providence_n do_v befall_v i_o shall_v i_o not_o bear_v it_o quiet_o if_o it_o have_v be_v from_o a_o enemy_n he_o will_v have_v be_v discontent_a but_o come_v from_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o friend_n he_o be_v willing_a with_o it_o indeed_o holy_a man_n may_v be_v sometime_o in_o a_o mist_n and_o not_o consider_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o lord_n counsel_n as_o paul_n when_o he_o be_v buffet_v by_o the_o messenger_n of_o satan_n he_o be_v somewhat_o discontent_a till_o the_o lord_n make_v know_v to_o he_o that_o he_o be_v mistake_v in_o it_o that_o though_o he_o take_v it_o for_o poison_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o medicine_n he_o think_v it_o come_v from_o satan_n but_o when_o he_o see_v it_o come_v from_o one_o that_o love_v he_o and_o it_o be_v for_o his_o good_a that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o his_o power_n may_v appear_v he_o willing_o submit_v yea_o he_o rejoice_v in_o it_o a_o good_a conscience_n be_v not_o only_o to_o do_v that_o which_o be_v command_v it_o be_v possible_a for_o he_o that_o have_v no_o grace_n not_o to_o dare_v to_o do_v something_n which_o be_v evil_a in_o secret_n but_o a_o good_a conscience_n be_v when_o a_o man_n be_v not_o willing_a to_o displease_v the_o lord_n he_o dare_v not_o do_v it_o because_o he_o love_v the_o lord_n he_o stand_v upon_o such_o term_n with_o he_o as_o a_o chaste_a wife_n with_o her_o husband_n therefore_o he_o will_v look_v to_o make_v his_o course_n even_o and_o to_o please_v the_o lord_n in_o all_o thing_n the_o three_o rule_n to_o try_v it_o by_o consider_v whether_o lord_n thy_o subjection_n be_v as_o to_o the_o
