diligence_n to_o make_v this_o sure_a to_o their_o soul_n that_o they_o be_v effectual_o call_v by_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o handle_n of_o which_o i_o have_v go_v over_o several_a particular_n i_o now_o come_v to_o lay_v down_o some_o proposition_n or_o conclusion_n about_o effectual_a call_n and_o i_o shall_v name_v twenty_o in_o all_o first_o ten_o sad_a conclusion_n to_o all_o those_o man_n who_o be_v not_o effectual_o call_v second_o ten_o consolatorie_a conclusion_n to_o all_o those_o man_n that_o be_v effectual_o call_v by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o mix_v conclusion_n procure_v terror_n to_o the_o wicked_a with_o such_o as_o procure_v comfort_n to_o the_o godly_a one_o temper_v with_o the_o other_o may_v do_v good_a to_o both_o i_o begin_v with_o the_o first_o 1._o the_o first_o sad_a conclusion_n i_o shall_v lay_v down_o be_v this_o that_o there_o be_v many_o man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o be_v call_v outward_o by_o the_o word_n unto_o a_o profession_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v not_o call_v effectual_o by_o the_o spirit_n to_o a_o possession_n of_o christ_n my_o meaning_n be_v this_o there_o be_v many_o man_n have_v the_o word_n of_o god_n

so_o trouble_v he_o can_v not_o speak_v yet_o asaph_n speak_v these_o word_n with_o his_o mouth_n but_o the_o meaning_n be_v though_o asaph_n be_v a_o godly_a man_n yet_o he_o be_v so_o overwhelm_v with_o trouble_n he_o can_v not_o speak_v to_o god_n he_o can_v not_o call_v upon_o god_n with_o that_o inward_a vigour_n of_o spirit_n though_o thou_o may_v sometime_o call_v upon_o god_n with_o affection_n yet_o when_o trouble_n rest_v upon_o thou_o thy_o heart_n may_v be_v out_o of_o frame_n three_o many_o time_n god_n people_n be_v subject_a to_o a_o state_n of_o desertion_n and_o abatement_n in_o their_o spiritual_a affection_n and_o then_o they_o be_v out_o of_o a_o pray_a vein_n when_o you_o loose_a affection_n the_o wheel_n of_o prayer_n be_v knock_v off_o many_o time_n it_o fall_v out_o with_o god_n people_n that_o they_o be_v even_o bring_v into_o a_o languish_a and_o low_a condition_n they_o be_v in_o such_o a_o swoon_n as_o if_o they_o have_v neither_o a_o

be_v a_o die_a people_n and_o then_o the_o tongue_n fail_v when_o it_o be_v a_o die_a the_o people_n of_o god_n may_v be_v in_o a_o die_a condition_n though_o they_o never_o die_v whole_o in_o grace_n yet_o they_o may_v be_v so_o weaken_v in_o their_o spirit_n that_o they_o can_v pour_v out_o their_o request_n to_o god_n as_o in_o wont_a time_n 2_o chron._n 17.3_o jehosaphat_n he_o walk_v in_o the_o first_o way_n of_o david_n his_o father_n imply_v that_o david_n first_o way_n be_v better_a than_o his_o last_o so_o many_o man_n may_v have_v their_o first_o way_n good_a yet_o sometime_o in_o the_o end_n before_o they_o die_v they_o may_v have_v much_o fail_v and_o deadness_n of_o spirit_n upon_o they_o four_o if_o a_o man_n do_v but_o mourn_v that_o he_o can_v call_v upon_o god_n god_n look_v upon_o that_o as_o call_v upon_o he_o if_o you_o can_v but_o sigh_v out_o your_o request_n and_o mourn_v that_o you_o can_v mourn_v and_o pray_v that_o you_o may_v pray_v the_o lord_n hear_v your_o prayer_n this_o be_v the_o most_o melodious_a music_n you_o can_v make_v in_o the_o ear_n of_o god_n therefore_o david_n say_v psal_n 6.8_o the_o lord_n have_v hear_v the_o voice_n of_o my_o weep_n there_o be_v a_o voice_n in_o tear_n as_o well_o as_o in_o word_n if_o the_o lord_n see_v thou_o to_o weep_v over_o thy_o own_o straitness_n and_o mourn_v over_o thy_o own_o deadness_n the_o lord_n look_v upon_o this_o with_o a_o more_o please_a eye_n then_o if_o thou_o can_v pour_v out_o the_o inlargement_n of_o thy_o tongue_n with_o most_o fluent_a and_o voluble_a expression_n 2_o pet._n 1.10_o wherefore_o the_o rather_o brethren_n give_v all_o diligence_n to_o make_v your_o call_v and_o election_n sure_a the_o doctrine_n which_o i_o be_o yet_o upon_o be_v this_o that_o

their_o call_n that_o they_o be_v bring_v out_o of_o a_o state_n of_o ignorance_n into_o a_o state_n of_o knowledge_n out_o of_o a_o state_n of_o darkness_n into_o a_o state_n of_o light_n hence_o they_o will_v urge_v this_o against_o themselves_o 1_o pet._n 2.9_o you_o be_v to_o show_v forth_o the_o praise_n of_o he_o who_o have_v call_v you_o out_o of_o darkness_n into_o his_o marvellous_a
