open_v this_o point_n full_o will_v ask_v some_o time_n first_o therefore_o i_o will_v show_v you_o how_o we_o may_v know_v when_o our_o duty_n be_v act_v by_o our_o natural_a part_n rather_o than_o

the_o spirit_n of_o god_n if_o thou_o have_v act_v by_o he_o though_o thou_o do_v meet_v with_o never_o such_o difficulty_n and_o discouragement_n thou_o will_v be_v carry_v through_o they_o all_o

second_o it_o shall_v make_v i_o to_o come_v with_o a_o heart_n sensible_a of_o the_o need_n of_o this_o mercy_n o_o lord_n i_o have_v have_v my_o heart_n let_v out_o to_o other_o vain_a thing_n

if_o you_o come_v to_o ask_v a_o great_a matter_n they_o will_v look_v askew_o upon_o you_o but_o the_o truth_n be_v the_o great_a the_o thing_n be_v that_o we_o come_v to_o god_n for_o the_o more_o

shall_v say_v when_o you_o come_v to_o beg_v mercy_n be_v sure_a you_o bring_v merciful_a heart_n five_o it_o be_v a_o good_a way_n to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o this_o attribute_n for_o the_o soul_n to_o be_v solicitous_a with_o itself_o what_o be_v that_o that_o will_v hinder_v i_o from_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n and_o let_v i_o avoid_v it_o it_o be_v otherwise_o a_o take_n of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o vain_a for_o i_o to_o come_v to_o profess_v what_o need_n i_o have_v of_o god_n mercy_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o never_o regard_v to_o avoid_v those_o thing_n

be_v to_o sanctify_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n now_o you_o will_v say_v how_o shall_v a_o believer_n sanctify_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n thus_o first_o he_o shall_v be_v apprehensive_a and_o

in_o himself_o it_o be_v true_a that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v come_v between_o a_o believe_a soul_n and_o the_o justice_n of_o the_o father_n and_o have_v take_v the_o stroke_n of_o justice_n upon_o

therefore_o not_o to_o dare_v to_o come_v but_o through_o a_o mediator_n here_o you_o have_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o must_v tender_v up_o all_o in_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n christ_n because_o when_o we_o be_v to_o come_v before_o god_n we_o be_v to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o his_o justice_n for_o thou_o to_o think_v thus_o i_o have_v sin_v and_o god_n be_v merciful_a and_o i_o will_v go_v and_o pray_v to_o he_o that_o he_o may_v be_v merciful_a and_o there_o be_v a_o end_n be_v this_o all_o oh_o no_o god_n require_v the_o sanctify_a of_o his_o justice_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o do_v sanctify_v his_o justice_n so_o much_o as_o this_o that_o when_o a_o poor_a creature_n see_v the_o infinite_a distance_n that_o sin_n have_v make_v between_o that_o infinite_a

will_v pray_v than_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o main_a matter_n of_o your_o prayer_n be_v only_o for_o yourselves_o but_o how_o have_v the_o matter_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o great_a god_n and_o

of_o worship_n if_o you_o will_v know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n it_o be_v this_o you_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n and_o respect_n that_o be_v due_a from_o the_o creature_n to_o the_o creator_n now_o when_o a_o subject_a come_v to_o tender_v up_o his_o homage_n to_o his_o prince_n he_o come_v towards_o he_o when_o he_o do_v it_o immediate_o so_o we_o have_v none_o to_o tender_v it_o up_o by_o but_o jesus_n christ_n and_o when_o we_o tender_v it_o up_o we_o must_v come_v ourselves_o too_o for_o christ_n do_v nor_o take_v our_o service_n and_o tender_v it_o up_o to_o

so_o that_o we_o be_v say_v to_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o that_o respect_n because_o of_o the_o immediate_a tender_v up_o of_o that_o worship_n of_o we_o to_o god_n i_o call_v it_o immediate_a in_o respect_n of_o any_o creature_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o christ_n indeed_o he_o be_v a_o mediator_n to_o do_v it_o but_o yet_o he_o do_v it_o in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n and_o we_o have_v to_o

we_o do_v not_o tender_v up_o our_o worship_n to_o god_n through_o that_o creature_n but_o in_o the_o use_n of_o that_o creature_n we_o do_v come_v to_o god_n and_o our_o soul_n be_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o respect_n we_o owe_v to_o god_n immediate_o therefore_o in_o levit_fw-la 21._o 21._o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o priest_n in_o their_o sacrifice_n when_o they_o be_v to_o come_v to_o

he_o come_v nigh_o so_o when_o we_o come_v to_o offer_v our_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n unto_o god_n we_o come_v nigh_o to_o god_n to_o offer_v it_o be_v the_o offering_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n and_o that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n because_o the_o creature_n come_v to_o bring_v a_o present_a to_o god_n therefore_o he_o be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o and_o second_o the_o soul_n be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n because_o it_o do_v present_v its_o self_n before_o god_n in_o those_o way_n through_o which_o god_n do_v use_v to_o communicate_v his_o choice_n precious_a most_o excellent_a and_o glorious_a mercy_n to_o his_o people_n i_o say_v when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o set_v ourselves_o before_o god_n in_o those_o way_n that_o god_n do_v use_v to_o communicate_v the_o choice_n most_o excellent_a and_o glorious_a rich_a mercy_n that_o he_o have_v to_o communicate_v to_o his_o creature_n when_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o

what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o heaven_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o why_o those_o that_o be_v in_o heaven_n be_v say_v to_o live_v with_o god_n there_o they_o behold_v

so_o as_o to_o have_v one_o part_n in_o one_o place_n and_o another_o in_o another_o but_o all_o god_n be_v in_o every_o place_n but_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o heaven_n it_o be_v because_o the_o lord_n make_v know_v himself_o there_o in_o a_o more_o glorious_a manner_n than_o in_o any_o other_o place_n and_o therefore_o heaven_n be_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n in_o

to_o make_v a_o creature_n to_o live_v with_o god_n and_o to_o be_v before_o his_o face_n because_o they_o be_v there_o where_o god_n do_v most_o communicate_v himself_o then_o certain_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n we_o come_v to_o be_v near_o god_n and_o be_v with_o god_n because_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n be_v those_o mean_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v for_o the_o

you_o come_v to_o perform_v any_o act_n of_o worship_n true_o this_o one_o thing_n will_v be_v of_o marveilons_a use_n and_o it_o will_v help_v forward_o to_o the_o next_o point_n of_o sanctify_v of_o

you_o do_v when_o you_o worship_n god_n i_o fear_v that_o this_o second_o question_n will_v gravel_n many_o you_o will_v say_v we_o must_v pray_v to_o god_n and_o serve_v he_o and_o hear_v his_o

with_o yourselves_o and_o charge_v this_o upon_o your_o own_o heart_n i_o be_o now_o go_v to_o worship_n god_n either_o in_o prayer_n word_n or_o sacrament_n i_o be_o now_o go_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n that_o be_v due_a from_o a_o creature_n to_o the_o infinite_a creator_n so_o that_o i_o must_v so_o pray_v as_o i_o must_v manifest_v that_o high_a respect_n that_o i_o owe_v to_o

to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n that_o you_o owe_v unto_o god_n and_o so_o every_o time_n you_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n there_o be_v a_o profession_n that_o you_o come_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o respect_n and_o homage_n that_o you_o owe_v to_o the_o infinite_a god_n and_o so_o likewise_o when_o you_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n now_o when_o we_o come_v to_o offer_v a_o

out_o the_o choice_a of_o his_o mercy_n to_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o people_n through_o and_o now_o i_o be_o go_v to_o worship_v he_o i_o be_o go_v to_o present_v myself_o fore_o god_n indeed_o there_o be_v a_o little_a glimmer_n of_o the_o light_n of_o god_n through_o other_o creature_n to_o i_o but_o the_o glorious_a beam_n of_o the_o light_n of_o god_n be_v through_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n 3._o and_o then_o three_o i_o be_o now_o go_v to_o act_v my_o soul_n upon_o god_n so_o that_o if_o i_o have_v any_o ability_n to_o close_v with_o god_n to_o act_v my_o soul_n upon_o he_o it_o must_v be_v put_v forth_o now_o at_o this_o time_n i_o be_o indeed_o at_o all_o time_n to_o labour_n to_o enjoy_v communion_n with_o god_n when_o i_o see_v the_o creature_n the_o sun_n

god_n and_o to_o acknowledge_v god_n in_o all_o but_o when_o i_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n than_o all_o the_o strength_n of_o my_o soul_n be_v to_o be_v act_v upon_o god_n in_o a_o more_o special_a

and_o the_o more_o i_o do_v the_o more_o i_o do_v desire_n to_o do_v that_o be_v now_o a_o kind_n of_o infinitness_n that_o there_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n where_o grace_n come_v i_o say_v grace_n

so_o enlarge_v the_o heart_n even_o to_o a_o infinitness_n as_o it_o be_v for_o god_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v in_o the_o general_n what_o it_o be_v to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n to_o tender_v up_o to_o god_n that_o which_o be_v some_o way_n suitable_a to_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o infinite_a god_n 2._o you_o know_v there_o be_v a_o second_o thing_n viz._n that_o then_o i_o do_v sanctify_v god_n

in_o respect_n of_o god_n greatness_n and_o glory_n second_o what_o the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o heart_n shall_v be_v as_o suitable_a to_o the_o several_a attribute_n of_o god_n it_o will_v cost_v we_o some_o time_n to_o open_v the_o particular_a thing_n in_o the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o heart_n as_o in_o reference_n to_o the_o greatness_n and_o majesty_n of_o god_n consider_v more_o general_o

people_n but_o that_o we_o speak_v too_o in_o show_v how_o we_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n and_o it_o may_v well_o come_v in_o here_o again_o as_o a_o argument_n why_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n 4._o a_o four_o reason_n be_v this_o because_o there_o be_v no_o way_n for_o we_o to_o be_v fit_v for_o the_o receive_n of_o mercy_n from_o god_n through_o those_o duty_n of_o

of_o soul_n as_o this_o be_v that_o have_v be_v speak_v of_o to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n thou_o will_v be_v loath_a to_o lose_v those_o duty_n of_o worship_n that_o thou_o do_v perform_v therefore_o it_o be_v require_v of_o thou_o to_o sanctify_v his_o name_n lest_o thou_o do_v lose_v all_o for_o it_o be_v this_o that_o make_v thou_o the_o only_a capable_a subject_n of_o what_o good_a be_v to_o be_v have_v there_o 5._o we_o must_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o holy_a duty_n because_o otherwise_o we_o shall_v certain_o never_o hold_v out_o in_o duty_n but_o vanish_v and_o come_v to_o

for_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o pleasure_n and_o content_a in_o the_o world_n but_o now_o it_o be_v otherwise_o with_o they_o how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o these_o be_v

of_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n and_o upon_o this_o it_o be_v that_o they_o have_v leave_v off_o this_o i_o dare_v say_v that_o there_o be_v never_o any_o soul_n that_o do_v know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o

every_o time_n you_o come_v to_o perform_v holy_a duty_n to_o be_v as_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n separate_v from_o all_o thing_n valerius_n maximus_n tell_v a_o story_n of_o a_o young_a nobleman_n that_o attend_v upon_o alexander_n while_o he_o be_v sacrifice_v this_o nobleman_n hold_v his_o censer_n for_o incense_n and_o in_o the_o hold_n of_o it_o there_o fall_v a_o coal_n upon_o his_o

to_o worship_v the_o high_a god_n and_o so_o josephus_n he_o report_v of_o the_o priest_n that_o be_v sacrifice_v in_o the_o temple_n when_o pompey_n break_v in_o to_o they_o with_o arm_a man_n and_o

matter_n of_o great_a consequence_n oh_o that_o we_o can_v mind_v the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n as_o matter_n of_o great_a moment_n that_o so_o we_o may_v learn_v to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o

every_o time_n thou_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n not_o only_o as_o i_o say_v before_o to_o tender_v up_o thy_o service_n in_o his_o name_n but_o act_v thy_o faith_n upon_o christ_n to_o give_v thou_o strength_n to_o do_v what_o thou_o have_v to_o do_v and_o what_o strength_n thou_o have_v receive_v from_o christ_n be_v sure_a to_o stir_v it_o up_o many_o godly_a man_n and_o woman_n have_v more_o

the_o shame_n and_o sorrow_n of_o heart_n for_o it_o abide_v upon_o thou_o till_o the_o next_o time_n thou_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n and_o that_o will_v mighty_o help_v thou_o thou_o be_v now_o

for_o the_o want_n of_o sanctify_a god_n name_v the_o last_o time_n and_o so_o for_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n or_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n and_o this_o will_v further_o thou_o mighty_o for_o the_o

his_o name_n in_o a_o way_n of_o justice_n second_o if_o we_o do_v sanctify_v his_o name_n than_o he_o will_v sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o a_o way_n of_o mercy_n towards_o we_o for_o the_o first_o god_n will_v manifest_v that_o he_o be_v displease_v with_o such_o duty_n that_o thou_o do_v perform_v he_o will_v manifest_v it_o one_o way_n or_o other_o that_o he_o be_v a_o holy_a god_n and_o he_o do_v not_o accept_v of_o such_o unholy_a thing_n as_o thou_o do_v tender_a up_o to_o he_o for_o the_o truth_n be_v if_o god_n shall_v accept_v of_o such_o unholy_a thing_n from_o man_n god_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v like_a unto_o themselves_o as_o a_o man_n if_o he_o do_v entertain_v any_o as_o his_o familiar_a friend_n that_o be_v naught_o and_o wicked_a it_o be_v his_o disgrace_n and_o

one_o in_o his_o house_n that_o be_v wicked_a it_o be_v a_o dishonour_n to_o he_o so_o god_n may_v employ_v the_o most_o wicked_a man_n in_o the_o world_n in_o some_o outward_a service_n but_o if_o he_o shall_v accept_v of_o they_o in_o his_o worship_n it_o will_v be_v a_o dishonour_n to_o god_n and_o therefore_o god_n that_o he_o may_v sanctify_v his_o own_o name_n he_o will_v manifest_v his_o displeasure_n at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o against_o such_o duty_n of_o worship_n you_o that_o perform_v worship_n in_o a_o formal_a manner_n and_o with_o unclean_a vile_a heart_n i_o say_v it_o stand_v upon_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n if_o he_o will_v manifest_v himself_o a_o holy_a god_n he_o must_v manifest_v some_o displeasure_n against_o that_o way_n of_o thy_o worship_v of_o he_o this_o one_o meditation_n one_o will_v think_v shall_v mighty_o sink_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o any_o man_n that_o have_v a_o enlighten_v conscience_n to_o think_v thus_o it_o stand_v upon_o the_o

way_n or_o other_o appear_v to_o be_v against_o i_o in_o such_o duty_n that_o i_o tender_v up_o unto_o he_o now_o you_o will_v say_v how_o do_v god_n appear_v that_o he_o do_v not_o accept_v of_o they_o he_o will_v appear_v in_o these_o three_o thing_n 1._o first_o by_o blast_v those_o that_o do_v worship_n he_o thus_o in_o a_o formal_a way_n it_o shall_v at_o first_o be_v secret_a but_o afterward_o it_o will_v appear_v more_o apparent_o and_o we_o see_v it_o by_o experience_n that_o such_o as_o have_v be_v professor_n of_o religion_n and_o worship_n god_n in_o hypocrisy_n and_o in_o formality_n they_o have_v be_v blast_v in_o their_o part_n and_o common_a gift_n the_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o nadab_n and_o abihu_n that_o do_v not_o sanctify_v god_n name_n it_o be_v secret_a at_o first_o it_o strike_v they_o dead_a and_o though_o by_o fire_n yet_o if_o you_o read_v the_o story_n you_o shall_v find_v that_o their_o clothes_n be_v not_o burn_v and_o yet_o they_o be_v burn_v in_o their_o body_n so_o the_o lord_n sometime_o do_v blast_v man_n inward_o in_o their_o spirit_n in_o their_o soul_n in_o their_o part_n in_o their_o common_a gift_n he_o blast_v they_o i_o say_v inward_o though_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v outward_o yet_o at_o length_n it_o will_v appear_v before_o man_n that_o they_o be_v blast_v and_o in_o these_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o lord_n do_v come_v with_o spiritual_a judgement_n rather_o than_o with_o outward_a temporal_a judgement_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n those_o that_o do_v not_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o holy_a duty_n the_o lord_n do_v appear_v by_o some_o external_a and_o visible_a way_n upon_o their_o body_n but_o now_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n there_o god_n come_v with_o more_o spiritual_a judgement_n upon_o man_n soul_n and_o those_o be_v the_o most_o terrible_a judgement_n we_o have_v a_o notable_a scripture_n for_o this_o in_o isa_n 29._o 13._o how_o god_n do_v blast_v those_o that_o do_v not_o sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o holy_a duty_n wherefore_o the_o lord_n say_v forasmuch_o as_o this_o people_n draw_v near_o i_o with_o their_o mouth_n and_o with_o their_o lip_n

but_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n there_o we_o find_v general_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n to_o be_v more_o spiritual_a upon_o the_o heart_n and_o conscience_n of_o man_n we_o find_v it_o by_o experience_n god_n do_v discover_v that_o he_o do_v not_o accept_v of_o such_o as_o those_o be_v and_o therefore_o when_o you_o see_v any_o that_o have_v make_v profession_n of_o religion_n that_o have_v excellent_a part_n at_o first_o many_o common_a gift_n and_o now_o be_v as_o we_o say_v no_o body_n remember_v this_o text_n that_o god_n will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o those_o that_o

word_n 1._o first_o it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v so_o much_o of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a there_o can_v be_v sin_n in_o heaven_n that_o sin_n will_v be_v great_a than_o sin_n commit_v here_o therefore_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o angel_n when_o they_o be_v in_o god_n presence_n in_o a_o more_o special_a manner_n be_v the_o great_a the_o name_n of_o god_n be_v in_o any_o thing_n the_o great_a will_v be_v the_o evil_a if_o we_o do_v not_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o it_o now_o there_o be_v very_o much_o of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n more_o of_o god_n there_o than_o in_o all_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n and_o providence_n in_o ps_n 138._o 2_o thou_o have_v magnify_v thy_o word_n above_o all_o thy_o name_n there_o be_v therefore_o so_o much_o of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n we_o must_v sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o it_o 2._o second_o god_n have_v appoint_v his_o word_n to_o be_v the_o great_a ordinance_n to_o convey_v the_o special_a mercy_n that_o he_o intend_v for_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n that_o we_o speak_v to_o before_o in_o the_o general_n in_o show_v how_o the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n be_v as_o a_o channel_n for_o the_o conveyance_n of_o special_a good_a to_o the_o saint_n but_o none_o more_o than_o the_o word_n that_o be_v the_o ordinance_n to_o convey_v the_o first_o grace_n to_o those_o that_o belong_v to_o god_n election_n the_o sacrament_n be_v for_o strengthen_v and_o therefore_o there_o be_v rather_o more_o in_o the_o word_n than_o in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o yet_o every_o one_o think_v in_o conscience_n that_o he_o be_v bind_v to_o come_v careful_o to_o the_o sacrament_n and_o to_o look_v to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n there_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n to_o convince_v man_n and_o woman_n that_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n when_o they_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o holy_a communion_n than_o for_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n they_o think_v not_o so_o much_o of_o that_o but_o certain_o the_o word_n be_v appoint_v to_o be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o convey_v more_o blessing_n than_o the_o sacrament_n because_o it_o be_v appoint_v to_o convey_v the_o first_o grace_n and_o to_o convey_v strength_n of_o grace_n as_o well_o as_o the_o sacrament_n now_o be_v appoint_v to_o convey_v such_o great_a thing_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o elect_a both_o the_o first_o grace_n and_o strengthen_n of_o grace_n and_o comfort_n and_o assistance_n thereof_o the_o lord_n expect_v to_o have_v his_o name_n santifiy_v in_o it_o 3._o three_o the_o name_n of_o god_n must_v be_v sanctiff_v in_o the_o word_n because_o the_o word_n be_v very_o quick_a and_o lively_a it_o work_v man_n or_o woman_n to_o

devide_v a_o sunder_o of_o soul_n and_o spirit_n etc._n etc._n it_o be_v very_o quick_a of_o operation_n the_o text_n say_v that_o be_v when_o god_n have_v to_o deal_v with_o man_n by_o his_o word_n he_o will_v not_o stand_v dally_v and_o trifle_v with_o they_o but_o he_o be_v very_o quick_a with_o they_o either_o to_o bring_v there_o soul_n to_o life_n or_o to_o cast_v they_o away_o the_o time_n of_o man_n ignorance_n god_n wink_v at_o but_o now_o he_o call_v all_o man_n to_o repent_v let_v they_o look_v to_o it_o now_o god_n do_v forbear_v in_o the_o time_n of_o ignorance_n but_o he_o will_v not_o forbear_v so_o when_o the_o word_n come_v now_o be_v the_o axe_n lay_v to_o the_o root_n of_o the_o tree_n and_o when_o be_v that_o when_o john_n baptist_n come_v to_o preach_v repentance_n because_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v at_o hand_n though_o the_o tree_n be_v barren_a before_o and_o do_v not_o bring_v forth_o good_a sruit_n yet_o it_o may_v stand_v still_o and_o not_o be_v cut_v down_o but_o when_o the_o powerful_a ministration_n of_o the_o world_n come_v than_o the_o axe_n be_v lay_v to_o the_o root_n of_o the_o tree_n either_o now_o come_v in_o and_o be_v save_v or_o resist_v the_o word_n and_o perish_v and_o therefore_o that_o be_v very_o observable_a when_o christ_n send_v out_o his_o disciple_n to_o preach_v in_o mark_n 16._o 15_o 16._o say_v he_o go_v you_o into_o all_o the_o world_n and_o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o every_o creature_n and_o he_o that_o believe_v and_o be_v baptise_a shall_v be_v save_v but_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v

and_o be_v save_v and_o the_o other_o shall_v be_v damn_v as_o if_o god_n shall_v say_v if_o they_o will_v come_v in_o and_o embrace_v the_o gospel_n they_o shall_v be_v save_v if_o they_o will_v not_o they_o shall_v be_v damn_v and_o there_o be_v a_o end_n of_o they_o so_o that_o i_o say_v we_o have_v need_v to_o look_v to_o it_o that_o we_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n upon_o these_o three_o ground_n because_o there_o be_v so_o much_o of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n because_o he_o have_v appoint_v it_o to_o convey_v the_o great_a mercy_n to_o his_o saint_n and_o because_o god_n be_v very_o quick_a in_o his_o word_n one_o way_n or_o other_o we_o shall_v now_o proceed_v to_o the_o application_n of_o this_o point_n and_o first_o by_o way_n of_o reprehension_n to_o all_o those_o that_o do_v not_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o herein_o we_o shall_v show_v their_o fearful_a condition_n and_o how_o god_n will_v sanctify_v his_o name_n upon_o they_o in_o way_n of_o judgement_n and_o then_o when_o we_o come_v to_o the_o use_n of_o exhortation_n to_o exhort_v you_o to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n there_o we_o shall_v show_v you_o likewise_o how_o god_n will_v sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o way_n of_o mercy_n upon_o those_o that_o do_v sanctify_v he_o in_o way_n of_o obedience_n in_o hear_v of_o his_o word_n 1._o for_o the_o first_o certain_o if_o that_o be_v to_o sanctsfie_v the_o name_n of_o god_n that_o we_o have_v speak_v of_o god_n name_v be_v but_o very_o little_a sanctify_a by_o people_n that_o do_v come_v to_o hear_v his_o word_n and_o we_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o wonder_v that_o there_o be_v so_o little_a good_a get_v by_o the_o word_n because_o there_o be_v so_o few_o that_o make_v conscience_n to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o here_v it_o some_o there_o be_v that_o be_v so_o far_o from_o sanctify_a god_n name_v in_o it_o as_o they_o altogether_o neglect_v it_o and_o make_v it_o a_o matter_n of_o nothing_o whether_o they_o come_v to_o hear_v it_o
so_o you_o may_v see_v that_o god_n will_v have_v his_o name_n sanctify_v upon_o they_o and_o they_o be_v these_o 1._o in_o the_o first_o place_n you_o that_o do_v not_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o

the_o sabbath_n my_o brethren_n that_o be_v appoint_v to_o be_v the_o set_v constant_a day_n of_o thanksgiving_n for_o the_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o there_o be_v other_o day_n

and_o believe_v on_o his_o son_n and_o repent_v which_o be_v the_o tenor_n of_o the_o gospel_n now_o every_o time_n thou_o come_v to_o receive_v this_o sacrament_n thou_o come_v to_o renew_v this_o

have_v you_o actual_o renew_v your_o covenant_n with_o god_n you_o that_o have_v take_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n have_v you_o give_v up_o your_o body_n to_o christ_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n then_o that_o you_o sin_v so_o much_o with_o your_o body_n that_o you_o abbuse_v your_o body_n with_o uncleanness_n and_o drunkenness_n and_o other_o wickedness_n afterward_o oh_o you_o profane_v

not_o only_o towards_o god_n but_o towards_o our_o brethren_n for_o it_o be_v the_o feast_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o communion_n communion_n not_o only_o with_o christ_n but_o

when_o we_o be_v draw_v nigh_o to_o he_o in_o that_o holy_a ordinance_n of_o he_o thus_o for_o meditation_n the_o next_o thing_n when_o we_o be_v there_o must_v be_v a_o actuate_a of_o these_o holy_a

at_o that_o instant_n when_o thou_o take_v the_o bread_n and_o put_v it_o into_o thy_o mouth_n to_o eat_v thou_o shall_v stir_v up_o the_o act_n of_o faith_n afresh_o lay_v more_o hold_n upon_o

and_o disposition_n how_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o stir_v and_o a_o act_n of_o they_o only_o remember_v i_o leave_v all_o this_o point_n with_o this_o note_n that_o grace_n be_v not_o enough_o for_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

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 sanctify_v the_o gold_n and_o the_o altar_n be_v great_a than_o the_o offer_v that_o be_v offer_v upon_o it_o because_o it_o do_v sanctify_v the_o offer_n then_o prayer_n must_v needs_o be_v a_o mighty_a great_a ordinance_n a_o great_a than_o any_o other_o because_o that_o it_o sanctify_v all_o thing_n the_o word_n sanctify_v the_o creature_n but_o prayer_n sanctify_v the_o very_a word_n unto_o our_o use_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o read_v the_o word_n we_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o a_o sanctify_a use_n of_o the_o word_n prayer_n be_v a_o great_a ordinance_n a_o great_a duty_n of_o

of_o god_n the_o kingdom_n of_o his_o power_n and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n i_o say_v prayer_n have_v a_o kind_n of_o a_o cast_a voice_n and_o do_v order_n under_o god_n the_o great_a thing_n of_o the_o world_n they_o be_v according_a to_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o saint_n they_o bring_v down_o blessing_n upon_o the_o godly_a they_o power_n forth_o judgement_n upon_o the_o wicked_a the_o

upon_o the_o head_n of_o the_o wicked_a therefore_o god_n name_n be_v to_o be_v sanctify_v in_o prayer_n it_o be_v to_o be_v sanctify_v first_o in_o preparation_n psalm_n 10._o 17._o thou_o will_v

to_o curse_v any_o though_o they_o shall_v do_v we_o never_o so_o much_o wrong_v we_o be_v call_v to_o blessing_n but_o now_o in_o zeal_n to_o god_n take_v heed_n that_o we_o be_v not_o carry_v on_o

and_o will_v pray_v with_o understand_v also_o god_n do_v not_o love_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o fool_n we_o must_v not_o come_v babble_v to_o god_n in_o prayer_n to_o speak_v we_o know_v not_o what_o and_o to_o multiply_v word_n we_o know_v not_o wherefore_o but_o god_n do_v require_v that_o those_o that_o come_v to_o prayer_n come_v with_o understanding_n that_o they_o offer_v to_o god_n a_o rational_a a_o reasonable_a a_o understand_a sacrifice_n god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o he_o will_v be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n now_o as_o it_o belong_v to_o all_o other_o duty_n of_o worship_n so_o especial_o in_o prayer_n to_o know_v what_o we_o do_v when_o we_o pray_v not_o to_o think_v to_o put_v off_o god_n with_o a_o mere_a empty_a sound_n that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n the_o second_o thing_n in_o the_o manner_n of_o prayer_n it_o be_v the_o giving_z up_o all_o the_o faculty_n of_o our_o soul_n in_o it_o i_o speak_v to_o that_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n in_o general_n we_o shall_v apply_v it_o now_o particular_o to_o prayer_n the_o give_v up_o not_o only_o our_o understanding_n but_o will_n thought_n affection_n strength_n in_o prayer_n in_o 2_o

in_o the_o general_n it_o may_v be_v you_o will_v ask_v something_o for_o the_o church_n but_o if_o it_o be_v for_o yourselves_o you_o will_v put_v up_o this_o petition_n oh_o lord_n that_o i_o may_v

we_o may_v make_v out_o more_o cleerlie_o afterward_o but_o now_o i_o speak_v to_o such_o as_o have_v most_o wicked_a
they_o do_v not_o consider_v that_o god_n do_v converse_v with_o the_o thought_n of_o man_n as_o well_o as_o man_n do_v with_o the_o word_n of_o man_n that_o be_v the_o three_o rule_n four_o take_v

hinder_v many_o in_o the_o sanctify_a of_o god_n name_n in_o prayer_n there_o be_v sometime_o dart_v in_o some_o vain_a thought_n now_o because_o the_o thought_n have_v no_o great_a evil_n in_o

matter_n of_o no_o moment_n one_o way_n or_o other_o upon_o that_o thy_o heart_n begin_v to_o be_v dandle_v and_o play_v with_o they_o therefore_o remember_v this_o rule_n that_o in_o the_o time_n of_o prayer_n whatsoever_o thought_n be_v in_o thy_o mind_n that_o do_v not_o concern_v the_o present_a duty_n they_o be_v sinful_a before_o god_n though_o the_o thought_n for_o the_o matter_n of_o

of_o tree_n and_o they_o begin_v to_o thrive_v very_o well_o but_o there_o come_v a_o company_n of_o caterpillar_n and_o spoil_n almost_o all_o the_o young_a tree_n that_o be_v set_v only_o two_o or_o

when_o so_o many_o other_o be_v spoil_v and_o so_o do_v thou_o view_v thy_o prayer_n and_o consider_v how_o many_o nigh_o have_v be_v spoil_v as_o it_o be_v by_o these_o caterpillar_n for_o i_o

and_o one_o will_v think_v that_o these_o bluster_a storm_n and_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n that_o have_v be_v out_o against_o we_o shall_v have_v cleanse_v our_o thought_n and_o soul_n from_o these_o

shall_v all_o in_o our_o drawing_n near_o to_o he_o in_o the_o duty_n of_o worship_n sanctify_v his_o name_n now_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v of_o divers_a reason_n why_o god_n will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o all_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n 1._o the_o first_o reason_n be_v this_o it_o be_v the_o very_a nature_n of_o god_n to_o will_n himself_o the_o last_o end_n and_o all_o other_o thing_n to_o work_v suitable_a to_o the_o lift_v up_o of_o himself_o as_o the_o last_o end_n i_o say_v it_o be_v as_o essential_a to_o he_o as_o any_o thing_n for_o he_o to_o will_n himself_o as_o the_o high_a end_n and_o that_o all_o thing_n shall_v work_v so_o as_o to_o be_v suitable_a unto_o that_o glory_n of_o his_o for_o the_o furtherance_n of_o it_o god_n shall_v cease_v to_o be_v god_n if_o so_o be_v he_o shall_v not_o will_v himself_o as_o the_o high_a end_n and_o so_o will_v that_o all_o thing_n that_o have_v any_o being_n shall_v some_o way_n or_o other_o work_n for_o himself_o this_o be_v the_o very_a nature_n of_o god_n it_o be_v that_o which_o i_o conceive_v the_o very_a nature_n of_o god_n holiness_n consist_v in_o the_o willing_a himself_o as_o the_o last_o end_n and_o so_o to_o work_v all_o thing_n as_o suitable_a unto_o his_o own_o infinite_a excellency_n now_o as_o this_o be_v god_n holiness_n so_o it_o be_v the_o holiness_n that_o god_n require_v in_o his_o creature_n that_o be_v capable_a of_o holiness_n that_o they_o shall_v will_v he_o as_o the_o last_o end_n and_o all_o thing_n suitable_a to_o that_o infinite_a excellency_n of_o his._n now_o if_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o god_n and_o this_o be_v his_o holiness_n then_o certain_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o necessary_a duty_n in_o all_o those_o that_o will_v have_v communion_n with_o god_n and_o will_v honour_v god_n to_o will_v as_o god_n himself_o do_v will_n that_o be_v that_o all_o thing_n shall_v work_v suitable_a to_o the_o infinite_a excellency_n of_o god_n that_o god_n may_v attain_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o infinite_a excellency_n and_o this_o make_v it_o to_o be_v a_o necessary_a duty_n that_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_v he_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v his_o name_n so_o that_o the_o first_o reason_n be_v take_v from_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o god_n it_o be_v the_o very_o be_v of_o god_n that_o all_o thing_n shall_v work_v to_o himself_o and_o in_o such_o a_o suitable_a way_n as_o to_o lift_v up_o his_o excellency_n and_o glory_n 2._o second_o we_o must_v sanctify_v god_n in_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n because_o it_o be_v the_o special_a glory_n that_o god_n have_v in_o the_o world_n to_o be_v active_o honour_v for_o his_o passive_a glory_n that_o be_v to_o be_v glorify_v in_o a_o passive_a way_n that_o he_o have_v in_o hell_n but_o the_o special_a glory_n that_o god_n will_v have_v it_o be_v that_o he_o may_v be_v glorify_v active_o now_o there_o be_v no_o such_o way_n of_o glorify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n active_o as_o by_o worship_v of_o he_o in_o a_o holy_a manner_n and_o therefore_o god_n stand_v much_o upon_o this_o that_o when_o we_o come_v to_o worship_v he_o we_o sanctify_v his_o name_n for_o say_v god_n if_o i_o be_v not_o sanctify_v in_o my_o worship_n what_o active_a glory_n have_v i_o in_o the_o world_n it_o be_v the_o special_a active_a glory_n that_o god_n have_v in_o the_o world_n the_o sanctify_a of_o his_o name_n in_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n 3._o three_o that_o which_o we_o have_v intimate_v before_o that_o the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n be_v the_o most_o precious_a thing_n the_o special_a conveyance_n of_o the_o choice_a mercy_n that_o he_o intend_v to_o bestow_v on_o his_o saint_n and_o therefore_o though_o he_o lose_v his_o glory_n in_o any_o thing_n else_o he_o will_v not_o lose_v it_o in_o that_o wherein_o he_o do_v especial_o convey_v his_o mercy_n and_o goodness_n to_o his_o
