it_o be_v a_o excellent_a thing_n to_o be_v able_a to_o understand_v the_o reach_n of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n as_o i_o may_v so_o say_v and_o it_o be_v a_o fruit_n of_o love_n it_o be_v a_o fruit_n of_o scripture_n the_o love_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o his_o saint_n that_o we_o shall_v know_v his_o mind_n more_o than_o other_o man_n do_v and_o certain_o if_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n have_v but_o know_v this_o when_o they_o first_o go_v into_o egypt_n and_o return_v back_o again_o that_o the_o lord_n do_v aim_n at_o jesus_n christ_n in_o it_o will_v it_o not_o have_v be_v a_o comfort_n to_o they_o if_o they_o have_v know_v that_o god_n intend_v to_o make_v they_o conformable_a to_o his_o son_n will_v it_o have_v be_v a_o comfort_n to_o they_o to_o have_v know_v it_o then_o certain_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o comfort_n to_o the_o saint_n to_o they_o know_v now_o that_o in_o all_o their_o suffering_n they_o have_v a_o conformity_n to_o jesus_n christ_n we_o know_v it_o now_o and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o do_v suffer_v it_o be_v to_o make_v we_o conformable_a to_o jesus_n christ_n the_o jew_n do_v not_o know_v this_o that_o which_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o god_n will_v have_v they_o suffer_v but_o we_o know_v it_o and_o therefore_o in_o all_o our_o suffering_n we_o shall_v exercise_v our_o faith_n in_o the_o suffering_n of_o jesus_n christ_n do_v we_o suffer_v thus_o and_o thus_o he_o do_v so_o to_o take_v away_o the_o sting_n of_o our_o suffering_n and_o in_o a_o special_a manner_n you_o that_o have_v be_v drive_v from_o house_n &_o home_n if_o

so_o great_a as_o the_o suffering_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v he_o flee_v for_o his_o life_n when_o he_o be_v but_o a_o infant_n and_o do_v not_o only_o fly_v to_o stranger_n but_o to_o his_o enemy_n to_o the_o egyptian_n you_o be_v drive_v but_o from_o one_o part_n of_o england_n to_o child_n another_o oh_o exercise_v your_o faith_n in_o this_o it_o be_v a_o very_a strange_a work_n of_o god_n providence_n that_o present_o after_o he_o be_v bear_v he_o must_v fly_v for_o his_o life_n you_o that_o be_v fain_o to_o carry_v your_o child_n with_o you_o oh_o remember_v how_o joseph_n and_o mary_n be_v fain_o to_o do_v it_o be_v fain_o to_o fly_v for_o the_o life_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o carry_v he_o and_o this_o flight_n be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o than_o your_o flight_n for_o they_o be_v fain_o to_o fly_v to_o egypt_n now_o suppose_v it_o be_v by_o land_n as_o that_o many_o reason_n may_v be_v give_v they_o be_v fain_o to_o fly_v a_o matter_n of_o a_o egypt_n hundred_o mile_n through_o the_o desert_n wilderness_n where_o there_o be_v no_o habitation_n you_o fly_v from_o one_o town_n to_o another_o and_o find_v relief_n they_o be_v fain_o to_o fly_v above_o a_o hundred_o mile_n it_o be_v fifty_o league_n which_o your_o mariner_n account_v three_o mile_n to_o a_o league_n and_o be_v in_o the_o very_a desert_n between_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n and_o egypt_n now_o though_o it_o be_v true_a the_o people_n of_o israel_n be_v forty_o year_n in_o the_o wilderness_n but_o it_o be_v not_o through_o the_o length_n of_o the_o place_n three_o day_n journey_n may_v

must_v needs_o be_v sad_a and_o miserable_a it_o can_v be_v conceive_v that_o any_o of_o your_o flight_n shall_v be_v so_o say_v and_o miserable_a as_o that_o be_v for_o they_o can_v not_o carry_v any_o provision_n with_o they_o but_o be_v fain_o to_o fly_v in_o a_o private_a way_n to_o save_v the_o life_n of_o jesus_n christ_n oh_o how_o often_o do_v you_o think_v do_v joseph_n and_o mary_n look_v upon_o this_o babe_n when_o they_o be_v fly_v through_o the_o desert_n wilderness_n &_o think_v what_o be_v this_o the_o son_n of_o god_n flight_n be_v this_o the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n be_v this_o he_o that_o shall_v be_v the_o redeemer_n of_o israel_n be_v this_o he_o that_o be_v god_n and_o man_n be_v this_o he_o that_o be_v the_o second_o person_n in_o trinity_n that_o present_o after_o he_o be_v bear_v we_o must_v fly_v for_o his_o life_n through_o a_o desert_n wilderness_n oh_o the_o strange_a work_n of_o god_n in_o the_o very_a work_n of_o man_n redemption_n thing_n be_v so_o low_a and_o poor_a and_o seem_v to_o go_v on_o in_o such_o a_o contrary_a way_n as_o it_o will_v have_v put_v any_o one_o faith_n to_o it_o to_o have_v think_v that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v have_v do_v such_o great_a thing_n as_o he_o do_v oh_o my_o brethren_n this_o be_v the_o way_n of_o god_n to_o put_v the_o faith_n of_o man_n to_o it_o especial_o at_o first_o so_o it_o be_v with_o christ_n flight_n into_o egypt_n it_o follow_v verse_n 2._o as_o they_o call_v they_o so_o they_o go_v from_o they_o etc._n etc._n as_o they_o that_o be_v moses_n and_o aaron_n and_o other_o prophet_n

think_v it_o be_v because_o they_o call_v they_o therefore_o loc_n they_o go_v from_o they_o because_o they_o call_v they_o that_o be_v they_o go_v from_o they_o for_o the_o very_a nonce_n as_o we_o

whence_o observe_v first_o it_o be_v a_o mercy_n of_o god_n to_o have_v god_n minister_n call_v 1_o we_o to_o obedience_n who_o be_v we_o that_o god_n shall_v send_v his_o messenger_n after_o we_o

call_v after_o we_o god_n may_v say_v if_o you_o will_v go_v go_v on_o and_o perish_v everlasting_o oh_o but_o he_o do_v not_o so_o second_o when_o god_n have_v call_v we_o out_o of_o affliction_n it_o be_v 2._o a_o great_a addition_n of_o mercy_n to_o call_v we_o out_o of_o sin_n unto_o duty_n and_o we_o shall_v account_v one_o as_o great_a as_o another_o we_o think_v it_o a_o great_a mercy_n if_o the_o lord_n will_v call_v we_o out_o of_o a_o affliction_n but_o when_o god_n call_v we_o out_o of_o a_o misery_n and_o call_v we_o to_o a_o duty_n do_v you_o think_v that_o that_o be_v as_o great_a a_o mercy_n that_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o a_o sanctify_a heart_n indeed_o you_o be_v in_o sickness_n and_o under_o great_a extremity_n if_o god_n shall_v say_v i_o will_v give_v out_o my_o word_n to_o deliver_v you_o that_o will_v be_v a_o sweet_a word_n you_o will_v say_v ay_o but_o when_o god_n give_v out_o his_o word_n to_o call_v thou_o out_o of_o thy_o sin_n to_o a_o duty_n thou_o shall_v as_o joyful_o take_v a_o hint_n of_o that_o word_n of_o god_n too_o oh_o do_v you_o prize_v god_n call_v unto_o you_o from_o sin_n to_o duty_n as_o much_o as_o from_o misery_n to_o

three_o it_o be_v a_o great_a aggravation_n of_o man_n sin_n if_o they_o be_v 3._o call_v to_o duty_n after_o god_n have_v call_v they_o out_o of_o misery_n and_o they_o do_v not_o obey_v it_o after_o thou_o come_v out_o of_o a_o affliction_n whether_o bodily_a or_o spiritual_a god_n expect_v thou_o shall_v as_o diligent_o hearken_v to_o his_o call_n that_o call_v thou_o to_o duty_n as_o thou_o do_v take_v hold_n of_o his_o mercy_n when_o he_o hold_v it_o to_o thou_o to_o deliver_v thou_o out_o of_o thy_o affliction_n charge_v thy_o soul_n deliverance_n thus_o oh_o wrench_v heart_n that_o i_o have_v i_o call_v to_o god_n and_o god_n have_v hear_v my_o call_n and_o now_o god_n have_v deliver_v i_o and_o call_v i_o to_o a_o duty_n and_o shall_v i_o stop_v my_o ear_n against_o god_n call_v oh_o how_o just_a be_v it_o for_o god_n to_o leave_v i_o in_o misery_n when_o i_o turn_v my_o back_n to_o he_o when_o he_o call_v i_o to_o a_o duty_n four_o for_o man_n not_o only_o to_o disobey_v god_n call_v but_o to_o 4._o turn_v away_o themselves_o from_o it_o and_o from_o those_o that_o speak_v to_o they_o in_o his_o name_n this_o be_v very_o wicked_a a_o high_a degree_n of_o sinfulness_n before_o god_n in_o jer._n 2._o 27._o they_o have_v turn_v their_o back_n unto_o 27._o i_o but_o not_o their_o face_n and_o so_o in_o jer._n 32._o 33._o they_o turn_v their_o 33._o back_n that_o be_v more_o than_o not_o to_o obey_v our_o back_n that_o be_v to_o refuse_v to_o obey_v to_o resolve_v not_o to_o obey_v in_o jer._n 18._o 17._o 17._o god_n threaten_v they_o that_o in_o the_o day_n of_o their_o calamity_n he_o will_v show_v they_o his_o back_n too_o as_o when_o a_o traitor_n be_v illustrate_v petition_v to_o his_o prince_n so_o long_o as_o the_o prince_n be_v but_o willing_a to_o parley_v with_o he_o and_o read_v his_o petition_n there_o be_v hope_n but_o if_o the_o prince_n turn_v his_o back_n and_o will_v not_o look_v upon_o his_o petition_n there_o be_v no_o

turn_v their_o back_n then_o there_o be_v little_a hope_n so_o when_o god_n turn_v his_o back_n upon_o sinner_n there_o be_v little_a hope_n then_o remember_v you_o that_o turn_v your_o back_n upon_o call_v to_o obedience_n word_n oh_o remember_v that_o scripture_n in_o jer._n 18._o 17._o that_o god_n threaten_v in_o the_o day_n of_o your_o calamity_n he_o will_v turn_v his_o back_n to_o you_o now_o this_o wickedness_n man_n do_v not_o grow_v to_o on_o a_o sudden_a at_o first_o they_o be_v loath_a to_o be_v convince_v that_o such_o a_o thing_n be_v a_o truth_n but_o at_o length_n when_o

have_v of_o this_o in_o jer._n at_o first_o they_o say_v that_o jeremiah_n do_v not_o speak_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o 86._o afterward_o as_o for_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o

5._o go_v away_o when_o man_n heart_n grow_v as_o lime_n that_o the_o shower_n of_o the_o word_n shall_v inflame_v they_o this_o be_v a_o sad_a condition_n indeed_o when_o the_o more_o clear_a evidence_n they_o simile_n have_v of_o the_o word_n the_o more_o desperate_a wicked_a they_o grow_v we_o find_v it_o so_o in_o some_o place_n when_o the_o word_n come_v with_o the_o great_a power_n this_o be_v all_o the_o effect_n it_o have_v upon_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n to_o make_v they_o the_o more_o desperate_a wicked_a you_o wonder_v sometime_o that_o where_o the_o word_n be_v preach_v mean_n with_o power_n man_n shall_v grow_v more_o wicked_a wonder_v not_o at_o it_o for_o where_o the_o word_n do_v not_o convert_v sinner_n it_o do_v harden_v they_o six_o from_o the_o extreme_a

his_o people_n that_o be_v thus_o stuborn_v and_o stout_a but_o the_o more_o they_o be_v call_v to_o obedience_n the_o more_o wicked_a they_o grow_v and_o yet_o god_n mercy_n continue_v towards_o they_o for_o a_o long_a time_n together_o and_o indeed_o in_o that_o god_n shall_v set_v his_o heart_n and_o love_n upon_o such_o a_o people_n as_o this_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a help_n against_o despair_n almost_o as_o any_o we_o know_v do_v but_o look_v into_o the_o book_n of_o god_n and_o read_v of_o people_n the_o people_n of_o the_o jew_n what_o wretched_a froward_a perverse_a

grace_n of_o god_n there_o be_v nothing_o that_o god_n have_v in_o his_o design_n more_o than_o to_o honour_v free_a grace_n i_o confess_v i_o have_v think_v to_o have_v spend_v some_o time_n in_o
