we_o shall_v attribute_v all_o the_o glory_n to_o god_n our_o heal_n have_v be_v such_o that_o except_o we_o even_o malicious_o shut_v our_o eye_n we_o can_v but_o know_v and_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n have_v heal_v we_o in_o great_a measure_n oh_o let_v not_o we_o by_o our_o pride_n and_o stoutness_n our_o oppression_n our_o foolishness_n make_v it_o appear_v that_o we_o do_v not_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n have_v heal_v we_o god_n people_n stand_v much_o upon_o that_o because_o it_o be_v his_o glory_n to_o heal_v his_o people_n therefore_o he_o stand_v much_o upon_o it_o to_o be_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v the_o healer_n of_o his_o people_n for_o bodily_a healing_n we_o be_v ready_a to_o acknowledge_v those_o that_o do_v heal_v we_o what_o thankfulness_n be_v give_v to_o physician_n when_o they_o have_v be_v instrument_n to_o heal_v our_o body_n before_o heal_v any_o body_n will_v say_v they_o will_v give_v oh_o what_o will_v they_o give_v all_o their_o estate_n that_o they_o may_v be_v heal_v of_o such_o a_o disease_n but_o when_o they_o be_v heal_v it_o may_v be_v they_o will_v neglect_v the_o physician_n but_o it_o be_v those_o that_o be_v of_o base_a spirit_n but_o other_o be_v very_o ready_a to_o acknowledge_v thankfulness_n that_o way_n to_o the_o physician_n that_o heal_v their_o body_n how_o gainful_a therefore_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o physician_n that_o god_n make_v use_v of_o to_o heal_v man_n body_n i_o remember_v i_o have_v read_v of_o lewes_n the_o eleven_o of_o france_n france_n that_o for_o his_o chaplin_n he_o allow_v they_o twenty_o shilling_n a_o month_n but_o for_o his_o physician_n one_o john_n cottiere_n his_o allowance_n be_v ten_o thousand_o crown_n a_o month_n four_o crown_n will_v serve_v his_o chaplin_n and_o ten_o thousand_o for_o his_o physician_n that_o be_v a_o gainful_a practice_n because_o man_n be_v more_o sensible_a of_o the_o heal_n of_o their_o body_n than_o the_o heal_n of_o their_o soul_n well_o any_o of_o you_o who_o have_v be_v in_o great_a sickness_n and_o use_v distress_n of_o body_n yea_o and_o in_o distress_n of_o soul_n too_o and_o be_v heal_v do_v not_o you_o now_o by_o the_o frolickness_n of_o your_o spirit_n and_o the_o abuse_n of_o your_o strength_n in_o the_o way_n of_o sin_n manifest_a that_o you_o do_v not_o know_v that_o god_n have_v heal_v you_o both_o in_o respect_n of_o national_a heal_v and_o in_o respect_n of_o personal_a heal_n let_v every_o one_o make_v use_n of_o that_o of_o david_n in_o psal_n 103._o bless_v the_o lord_n o_o my_o soul_n and_o all_o 3._o that_o be_v within_o i_o bless_v his_o holy_a name_n and_o again_o bless_v the_o lord_n o_o my_o soul_n and_o forget_v not_o all_o his_o benefit_n who_o forgive_v all_o thy_o iniquity_n who_o healteh_a all_o thy_o disease_n oh_o that_o we_o be_v able_a to_o join_v these_o two_o together_o now_o who_o forgive_v all_o thy_o iniquity_n and_o heal_v all_o thy_o disease_n heal_v be_v a_o mercy_n mercy_n indeed_o but_o then_o it_o be_v a_o mercy_n to_o purpose_n when_o it_o be_v a_o fruit_n of_o forgiveness_n when_o we_o can_v make_v good_a the_o former_a who_o forgive_v thy_o iniquity_n and_o heal_v thy_o disease_n when_o we_o can_v say_v our_o heal_n be_v a_o fruit_n of_o our_o forgiveness_n god_n have_v in_o great_a measure_n heal_v the_o land_n and_o nation_n oh_o that_o we_o can_v say_v that_o he_o have_v forgive_v we_o our_o heal_n without_o our_o forgiveness_n will_v be_v to_o little_a purpose_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o time_n of_o our_o great_a wound_n we_o shall_v cry_v for_o forgiveness_n in_o the_o first_o place_n and_o not_o be_v satisfy_v with_o any_o heal_n without_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o so_o particular_o god_n have_v heal_v some_o of_o your_o disease_n in_o body_n it_o may_v be_v your_o family_n have_v have_v person_n the_o plague_n or_o some_o other_o disease_n pox_n or_o measles_n why_o the_o lord_n have_v be_v please_v to_o heal_v you_o you_o be_v in_o a_o sad_a condition_n then_o and_o the_o lord_n have_v heal_v your_o family_n yea_o but_o can_v you_o put_v both_o together_o bless_v the_o lord_n who_o have_v forgive_v the_o iniquity_n of_o my_o family_n and_o heal_v the_o disease_n of_o my_o family_n and_o so_o for_o your_o own_o particular_n do_v not_o satisfy_v yourselves_o with_o this_o that_o you_o have_v your_o health_n restore_v you_o except_o you_o can_v bless_v the_o lord_n who_o have_v forgive_v my_o iniquity_n and_o heal_v my_o disease_n when_o thou_o find_v the_o one_o that_o thou_o be_v heal_v be_v not_o satisfy_v except_o by_o faith_n thou_o can_v see_v the_o other_o that_o thou_o be_v likewise_o forgive_v all_o thy_o iniquity_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o three_o verse_n verse_n 4._o i_o draw_v they_o with_o cord_n of_o a_o man_n with_o bond_n of_o love_n this_o verse_n be_v a_o great_a verse_n and_o it_o will_v be_v very_o hard_a to_o pass_v over_o this_o in_o a_o expository_n way_n only_o i_o draw_v they_o with_o cord_n of_o a_o man_n with_o bond_n of_o love_n here_o be_v a_o four_o or_o five_o expression_n of_o god_n love_n for_o there_o be_v two_o in_o the_o former_a verse_n teach_v they_o to_o go_v and_o heal_v they_o now_o here_o be_v the_o five_o i_o draw_v they_o with_o cord_n of_o a_o man_n with_o bond_n of_o love_n god_n still_o aggravate_v his_o

of_o a_o man_n some_o will_v carry_v this_o as_o if_o it_o be_v a_o proper_a name_n 1._o with_o the_o cord_n of_o adam_n for_o so_o the_o word_n be_v for_o the_o word_n adam_n signify_v a_o man_n of_o

or_o put_v on_o with_o violence_n my_o way_n be_v not_o thus_o with_o they_o to_o draw_v they_o and_o to_o have_v iron_n chain_n about_o they_o or_o strong_a cord_n to_o force_v they_o on_o in_o their_o way_n no_o say_v he_o i_o deal_v with_o they_o like_o man_n i_o draw_v they_o on_o with_o the_o cord_n of_o a_o man_n it_o do_v note_v what_o these_o three_o thing_n first_o i_o deal_v with_o they_o in_o a_o rational_a way_n as_o man_n not_o as_o beast_n and_o seek_v to_o draw_v they_o in_o that_o way_n as_o man_n second_o i_o deal_v with_o they_o in_o a_o gentle_a way_n not_o with_o rigour_n and_o violence_n but_o as_o a_o man_n for_o they_o be_v humane_a so_o my_o way_n be_v way_n suitable_a to_o their_o humanity_n as_o the_o scripture_n sometime_o speak_v of_o the_o rod_n of_o man_n i_o will_v chastise_v they_o with_o the_o rod_n of_o man_n by_o which_o some_o think_v be_v mean_v that_o be_v more_o gentle_a i_o deal_v with_o they_o gentle_o and_o then_o three_o with_o the_o

consider_v that_o they_o be_v man_n make_v at_o first_o according_a to_o my_o image_n and_o they_o be_v the_o most_o excellent_a creature_n that_o i_o have_v upon_o the_o earth_n here_o and_o therefore_o i_o deal_v with_o they_o in_o a_o way_n suitable_a to_o their_o nature_n to_o preserve_v the_o honour_n of_o their_o humane_a nature_n rational_o gentle_o honourable_o first_o consider_v how_o rational_o god_n deal_v with_o this_o 8._o people_n first_o the_o law_n that_o i_o give_v to_o they_o it_o be_v according_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o right_a reason_n there_o be_v nothing_o

word_n this_o day_n these_o bond_n may_v be_v somewhat_o strengthen_v that_o you_o may_v feel_v some_o strength_n in_o these_o bond_n that_o you_o may_v go_v away_o with_o your_o heart_n more_o

the_o yoke_n on_o their_o jaw_n and_o i_o lay_v meat_n unto_o they_o part_v of_o the_o last_o sermon_n it_o be_v spend_v in_o open_v unto_o you_o these_o bond_n of_o love_n and_o show_v first_o what_o be_v the_o bond_n of_o god_n love_n towards_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n the_o several_a expression_n of_o god_n love_n to_o they_o in_o several_a particular_n and_o show_v you_o how_o that_o all_o those_o that_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o man_n to_o draw_v they_o to_o god_n shall_v do_v as_o god_n do_v labour_v to_o draw_v they_o with_o bond_n of_o love_n i_o have_v especial_o direct_v myself_o unto_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n and_o show_v to_o they_o what_o bond_n of_o of_o love_n god_n have_v lay_v upon_o their_o heart_n to_o draw_v they_o to_o himself_o i_o have_v not_o apply_v this_o point_n general_o yet_o for_o indeed_o one_o principal_a bond_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n towards_o the_o nation_n will_v follow_v in_o the_o word_n after_o but_o certain_o the_o lord_n have_v seek_v to_o draw_v this_o nation_n to_o himself_o with_o bond_n of_o love_n we_o may_v say_v concern_v engl._n god_n he_o have_v love_v this_o nation_n love_v it_o it_o be_v the_o first_o nation_n that_o ever_o receive_v jesus_n christ_n by_o the_o countenance_n 1._o of_o public_a authority_n of_o the_o supreme_a authority_n in_o the_o nation_n and_o when_o antichrist_n have_v darken_v the_o

moreover_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o send_v the_o light_n and_o power_n 3._o of_o the_o gospel_n to_o any_o nation_n under_o heaven_n more_o full_o nay_o without_o prejudice_n to_o any_o other_o we_o may_v say_v not_o so_o full_o as_o to_o this_o nation_n though_o there_o be_v many_o of_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n else_o where_o yet_o in_o no_o place_n under_o heaven_n have_v god_n more_o yea_o

worship_v of_o he_o as_o here_o in_o this_o nation_n oh_o the_o bond_n of_o love_n that_o be_v upon_o we_o yea_o if_o we_o look_v upon_o our_o outward_a mercy_n those_o liberty_n that_o we_o enjoy_v there_o be_v scarce_o any_o nation_n that_o 4._o have_v the_o commonalty_n of_o the_o people_n that_o live_v like_o man_n in_o comparison_n of_o we_o for_o the_o most_o part_n of_o all_o the_o

observable_a in_o these_o bond_n 5._o of_o love_n that_o god_n draw_v people_n unto_o himself_o by_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o prophet_n here_o in_o mention_v these_o bond_n of_o love_n it_o be_v to_o aggravate_v their_o sin_n from_o whence_o text._n there_o be_v this_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o aggravate_v sin_n than_o that_o it_o be_v against_o 4._o love_n god_n have_v three_o bond_n

the_o bond_n of_o the_o commandment_n and_o the_o bond_n of_o affliction_n and_o bond_n of_o love_n too_o this_o aggravate_v sin_n very_o much_o oh_o charge_v thy_o sin_n with_o this_o aggravation_n oh_o thou_o sinner_n what_o against_o such_o a_o god_n such_o love_n oh_o what_o use_v a_o vile_a heart_n have_v i_o say_v augustin_n oh_o it_o be_v too_o hard_a a_o spirit_n august_n that_o though_o
