this_o do_v without_o wind_n be_v not_o the_o spirit_n the_o wind_n what_o be_v organ_n without_o breath_n there_o be_v no_o music_n make_v and_o what_o be_v all_o our_o preach_n when_o the_o spirit_n be_v absent_a that_o be_v all_o in_o all_o indeed_o it_o be_v the_o sword_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o what_o be_v it_o without_o the_o almighty_a hand_n of_o god_n it_o be_v say_v of_o one_o who_o hear_v that_o scanderbeg_n sword_n have_v do_v such_o and_o such_o strange_a work_n will_v needs_o see_v it_o and_o send_v for_o the_o sword_n when_o he_o see_v the_o sword_n he_o say_v he_o see_v no_o such_o matter_n in_o it_o be_v this_o the_o sword_n that_o have_v do_v all_o this_o scanderbag_n send_v he_o word_n again_o i_o have_v send_v the_o sword_n but_o not_o the_o arm_n that_o handle_v it_o so_o the_o word_n we_o preach_v to_o you_o be_v but_o the_o sword_n of_o god_n god_n lend_v you_o the_o sword_n many_o time_n when_o he_o keep_v the_o arm_n to_o himself_o it_o may_v be_v you_o have_v not_o see_v so_o great_a thing_n do_v by_o it_o as_o we_o tell_v you_o of_o that_o it_o be_v the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o salvation_n that_o it_o be_v that_o word_n of_o truth_n that_o beget_v man_n again_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o god_n reserve_v the_o arm_n to_o himself_o therefore_o when_o you_o come_v to_o hear_v as_o you_o have_v the_o sword_n pray_v earnest_o that_o the_o arm_n may_v go_v together_o with_o the_o sword_n that_o god_n will_v make_v it_o lively_a and_o mighty_a in_o operation_n to_o cut_v down_o your_o lust_n to_o pierce_v as_o a_o two-edged_a sword_n divide_v between_o the_o bone_n and_o the_o marrow_n the_o joint_n and_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v that_o you_o may_v know_v yourselves_o better_a than_o you_o do_v before_o and_o all_o this_o use_v you_o may_v make_v of_o this_o that_o you_o be_v creature_n and_o no_o man_n can_v make_v you_o new_a creature_n it_o be_v god_n must_v do_v it_o the_o end_n of_o the_o six_o sermon_n the_o seven_o sermon_n upon_o the_o new_a creature_n 2_o cor._n 5.17_o therefore_o if_o any_o man_n be_v in_o christ_n let_v he_o be_v a_o new_a creature_n but_o object_n you_o will_v object_v god_n work_v in_o we_o the_o deed_n even_o every_o deed_n so_o that_o a_o man_n have_v not_o freewill_n after_o he_o be_v regenerate_v answ._n free_a to_o this_o we_o answer_v that_o so_o far_o as_o his_o grace_n and_o the_o strength_n he_o have_v go_v so_o far_o he_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n by_o virtue_n of_o a_o general_a concourse_n it_o be_v not_o deny_v that_o a_o man_n can_v move_v his_o hand_n nor_o do_v any_o action_n without_o the_o general_a concourse_n of_o god_n but_o that_o god_n never_o deny_v but_o as_o he_o give_v the_o creature_n ability_n so_o he_o vouchsafe_v a_o general_a concourse_n to_o it_o as_o it_o be_v true_a in_o that_o so_o in_o all_o action_n of_o grace_n a_o man_n can_v do_v any_o thing_n without_o a_o concourse_n but_o when_o a_o man_n have_v grace_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n wherein_o a_o man_n have_v need_v of_o special_a supervenient_a help_n from_o god_n first_o when_o he_o be_v call_v to_o do_v a_o work_n which_o be_v above_o the_o strength_n he_o have_v receive_v here_o must_v be_v more_o strength_n there_o must_v be_v a_o new_a addition_n for_o the_o work_n go_v beyond_o the_o strength_n as_o a_o child_n may_v go_v on_o plain_a ground_n but_o if_o you_o will_v have_v he_o go_v up_o a_o pair_n of_o stair_n you_o must_v lend_v he_o your_o help_n so_o a_o christian_n may_v do_v action_n proportionable_a to_o the_o grace_n he_o have_v receive_v yet_o be_v call_v to_o somewhat_o above_o that_o pitch_n he_o must_v have_v a_o new_a help_n from_o god_n second_o when_o a_o man_n be_v assault_v by_o a_o temptation_n beyond_o the_o strength_n he_o have_v receive_v here_o need_v strength_n beyond_o his_o own_o to_o hold_v he_o up_o a_o child_n may_v stand_v alone_o but_o if_o one_o thrust_v he_o you_o must_v hold_v he_o up_o else_o he_o fall_v so_o the_o lord_n must_v put_v under_o his_o hand_n and_o we_o must_v have_v help_n above_o that_o we_o have_v receive_v but_o otherwise_o the_o position_n be_v true_a so_o far_o as_o we_o be_v regenerate_v so_o far_o we_o have_v freewill_n which_o follow_v grace_n so_o much_o life_n as_o we_o have_v so_o far_o we_o may_v move_v and_o stir_v ourselves_o and_o in_o these_o case_n it_o be_v true_a that_o we_o need_v more_o help_n from_o god_n beyond_o the_o grace_n we_o have_v receive_v the_o five_o thing_n to_o be_v observe_v be_v the_o order_n first_o in_o christ_n creature_n and_o then_o a_o new_a creature_n out_o of_o which_o we_o be_v brief_o to_o observe_v this_o let_v no_o man_n look_v for_o sanctification_n before_o he_o be_v justify_v learn_v that_o be_v let_v no_o man_n be_v discourage_v from_o come_v to_o christ_n we_o because_o he_o find_v not_o in_o himself_o that_o godly_a sorrow_n for_o sin_n that_o ability_n to_o repent_v that_o disposition_n of_o heart_n which_o he_o desire_v to_o have_v for_o a_o new_a creature_n follow_v it_o we_o must_v first_o be_v in_o christ_n before_o we_o can_v be_v new_a creature_n and_o this_o be_v a_o common_a fault_n among_o we_o we_o will_v fain_o have_v something_o before_o we_o come_v we_o think_v god_n pardon_n be_v not_o free_a but_o we_o must_v bring_v something_o in_o our_o hand_n you_o know_v the_o proclamation_n run_v thus_o buy_v without_o money_n that_o be_v come_v without_o any_o excellency_n at_o all_o because_o we_o be_v command_v to_o come_v and_o take_v the_o water_n of_o life_n free_o therefore_o do_v not_o say_v i_o have_v a_o sinful_a disposition_n and_o a_o hard_a heart_n and_o can_v mourn_v for_o sin_n as_o i_o shall_v therefore_o i_o will_v stay_v till_o that_o be_v do_v it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o thou_o shall_v say_v i_o must_v go_v to_o the_o physician_n but_o i_o will_v have_v my_o wound_n well_o and_o my_o disease_n heal_v first_o and_o when_o that_o be_v do_v i_o will_v go_v to_o the_o physician_n what_o be_v thy_o end_n of_o go_v to_o he_o but_o to_o have_v thy_o dis●●se_n heal_v do_v thou_o think_v to_o have_v thy_o disease_n heal_v before_o i_o say_v it_o be_v the_o same_o folly_n the_o end_n of_o go_v to_o christ_n be_v that_o this_o very_a hardness_n of_o thy_o heart_n may_v be_v take_v away_o that_o this_o very_a deadness_n of_o spirit_n may_v be_v remove_v that_o thou_o may_v be_v enliven_v and_o quicken_v and_o heal_v that_o thou_o may_v hate_v sin_n for_o he_o be_v thy_o physician_n look_v not_o for_o it_o beforehand_o thou_o must_v first_o be_v in_o christ_n before_o thou_o can_v be_v a_o new_a creature_n work_n again_o if_o we_o must_v first_o be_v in_o christ_n before_o we_o can_v be_v new_a creature_n if_o that_o be_v the_o order_n if_o that_o be_v the_o motive_n and_o the_o thing_n that_o carry_v we_o on_o then_o let_v we_o be_v content_a to_o use_v the_o motive_n that_o god_n use_v the_o papist_n propound_v other_o motive_n to_o good_a work_n they_o tell_v they_o they_o shall_v have_v heaven_n and_o escape_v damnation_n for_o they_o be_v this_o a_o good_a reason_n to_o move_v man_n to_o good_a work_n but_o the_o course_n of_o scripture_n be_v otherwise_o thou_o be_v in_o christ_n he_o be_v thou_o therefore_o be_v a_o new_a creature_n consider_v what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o thou_o therefore_o labour_v to_o turn_v to_o he_o again_o consider_v what_o thou_o have_v be_v without_o he_o what_o thou_o have_v by_o he_o and_o by_o that_o stir_v up_o thyself_o to_o do_v for_o he_o what_o he_o require_v therefore_o the_o apostle_n come_v to_o answer_v that_o question_n if_o grace_n abound_v why_o do_v not_o sin_n abound_v why_o do_v not_o a_o man_n sin_n more_o he_o do_v not_o say_v you_o shall_v have_v these_o and_o these_o motive_n to_o draw_v you_o from_o sin_n but_o he_o tell_v they_o whosoever_o be_v in_o christ_n be_v dead_a to_o sin_n and_o if_o you_o be_v dead_a to_o it_o how_o shall_v you_o live_v therein_o if_o you_o be_v in_o christ_n you_o will_v be_v new_a creature_n there_o need_v no_o other_o motive_n to_o make_v you_o so_o and_o so_o much_o for_o this_o because_o we_o will_v hasten_v to_o the_o point_n we_o intend_v to_o handle_v at_o this_o time_n if_o any_o man_n be_v in_o christ_n let_v he_o be_v a_o new_a creature_n the_o last_o point_n we_o be_v to_o observe_v in_o this_o text_n be_v that_o to_o be_v in_o christ_n be_v the_o ground_n of_o all_o salva●tion_n doctr._n that_o be_v salvation_n of_o all_o the_o privilege_n we_o have_v and_o of_o all_o the_o grace_n we_o have_v for_o
condition_n he_o be_v in_o so_o when_o the_o law_n come_v it_o humble_v a_o man_n make_v he_o to_o draw_v in_o his_o thought_n and_o to_o see_v his_o misery_n and_o when_o he_o be_v wound_v with_o the_o sense_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o with_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n then_o and_o not_o till_o then_o the_o foot_n of_o they_o that_o bring_v glad_a tiding_n of_o salvation_n be_v beautiful_a likewise_o humiliation_n be_v necessary_a for_o this_o cause_n because_o except_v man_n be_v thorough_o humble_v they_o will_v never_o take_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n by_o violence_n and_o they_o must_v take_v it_o so_o else_o they_o shall_v never_o have_v it_o now_o by_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v mean_v the_o gospel_n you_o know_v it_o be_v call_v the_o gospel_n of_o the_o kingdom_n that_o be_v righteousness_n and_o grace_n therein_o reveal_v and_o offer_v in_o matth._n 11._o and_o luke_n 16.16_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o from_o the_o time_n of_o john_n the_o baptist_n the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n suffer_v violence_n and_o the_o violence_n take_v it_o by_o force_n the_o meaning_n be_v this_o say_v christ_n to_o they_o we_o preach_v the_o gospel_n so_o do_v john_n with_o he_o it_o begin_v to_o be_v preach_v but_o deceive_v not_o yourselves_o many_o think_v they_o take_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o you_o must_v know_v there_o be_v two_o kind_n of_o take_v some_o be_v content_a to_o be_v save_v and_o to_o do_v many_o thing_n as_o herod_n do_v and_o as_o the_o second_o and_o three_o ground_n do_v but_o this_o be_v a_o false_a take_n and_o deceive_v not_o yourselves_o thereby_o there_o be_v another_o kind_n of_o take_v when_o a_o man_n take_v this_o kingdom_n violent_o and_o indeed_o none_o shall_v have_v it_o but_o after_o this_o manner_n now_o what_o be_v it_o to_o take_v it_o violent_o when_o a_o man_n take_v a_o thing_n violent_o he_o do_v it_o with_o all_o his_o might_n he_o put_v all_o his_o strength_n to_o it_o he_o do_v it_o not_o cold_o and_o slight_o and_o overly_o but_o with_o all_o his_o might_n so_o the_o meaning_n be_v this_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v as_o if_o one_o be_v to_o come_v within_o a_o narrow_a door_n which_o can_v be_v without_o difficulty_n when_o he_o put_v to_o all_o his_o violence_n and_o strength_n to_o do_v it_o according_a to_o the_o phrase_n in_o luke_n since_o the_o time_n of_o john_n the_o baptist_n they_o press_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n that_o be_v with_o violence_n as_o if_o god_n seem_v to_o hold_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n in_o his_o hand_n that_o unless_o you_o pull_v it_o and_o extort_v it_o from_o he_o as_o it_o be_v you_o shall_v never_o have_v it_o now_o will_v any_o man_n do_v thus_o till_o he_o be_v humble_v it_o be_v impossible_a he_o shall_v when_o a_o man_n be_v bring_v into_o fear_n of_o his_o life_n and_o be_v like_a to_o die_v the_o fear_n of_o loss_n of_o natural_a life_n will_v make_v he_o work_v any_o thing_n with_o violence_n much_o more_o than_o when_o a_o man_n see_v eternal_a death_n that_o he_o shall_v die_v for_o ever_o will_v he_o take_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n with_o violence_n that_o be_v he_o will_v not_o perform_v duty_n in_o a_o slight_a manner_n as_o if_o god_n be_v behold_v to_o he_o not_o with_o that_o laxity_n in_o his_o judgement_n of_o the_o truth_n as_o he_o conceive_v nor_o with_o that_o coldness_n in_o the_o duty_n those_o that_o will_v be_v save_v must_v take_v salvation_n by_o force_n which_o a_o man_n will_v never_o do_v till_o he_o be_v humble_v there_o be_v much_o profession_n and_o many_o kind_n of_o take_v christ_n in_o the_o world_n but_o the_o right_a take_n be_v when_o a_o man_n will_v be_v at_o this_o cost_n to_o part_v with_o all_o to_o deny_v himself_o perfect_o and_o every_o way_n and_o take_v up_o his_o cross_n and_o every_o cross_n when_o his_o lust_n be_v thorough_o mortify_v and_o this_o can_v be_v till_o he_o be_v humble_v for_o mark_v nothing_o mortify_v but_o joy_n and_o love_n that_o do_v proper_o and_o immediate_o mortify_v for_o no_o man_n will_v part_v with_o his_o lust_n till_o he_o find_v christ_n sweet_a than_o they_o till_o than_o he_o will_v never_o part_v with_o they_o in_o good_a earnest_n now_o christ_n will_v never_o be_v sweet_a till_o we_o have_v find_v the_o bitterness_n of_o sin_n till_o god_n have_v so_o press_v it_o on_o their_o conscience_n that_o they_o feel_v the_o weight_n and_o burden_n of_o it_o and_o so_o much_o for_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o 1_o now_o the_o use_n of_o this_o be_v double_a first_o be_v this_o so_o necessary_a then_o labour_v to_o see_v yourself_o humble_v if_o ever_o you_o look_v to_o be_v save_v and_o justify_v for_o though_o god_n offer_v salvation_n to_o all_o as_o it_o be_v true_a none_o be_v except_v yet_o he_o look_v to_o none_o with_o a_o gracious_a eye_n to_o save_v he_o indeed_o but_o he_o that_o be_v poor_a and_o contrite_a in_o heart_n and_o tremble_v at_o his_o word_n and_o good_a reason_n for_o none_o else_o will_v look_v after_o he_o the_o poor_a receive_v the_o gospel_n and_o none_o else_o when_o we_o preach_v the_o gospel_n it_o be_v like_o cyrus_n his_o proclamation_n it_o be_v a_o general_a proclamation_n that_o all_o that_o will_v may_v go_v out_o of_o captivity_n and_o build_v the_o temple_n but_o say_v the_o text_n only_o they_o go_v who_o heart_n the_o lord_n stir_v up_o to_o go_v other_o will_v no●_n go_v so_o when_o we_o preach_v we_o offer_v salvation_n to_o all_o man_n that_o be_v our_o commission_n mark_v 16._o go_v and_o preach_v to_o all_o nation_n that_o be_v offer_v grace_n and_o salvation_n to_o all_o man_n but_o when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o point_n that_o man_n must_v go_v out_o of_o their_o captivity_n and_o build_v a_o temple_n to_o god_n they_o will_v not_o do_v it_o they_o will_v rather_o live_v in_o captivity_n still_o because_o they_o be_v not_o humble_a to_o go_v out_o of_o their_o sin_n wherein_o they_o have_v be_v captivate_v a_o great_a while_n and_o to_o build_v a_o temple_n to_o christ_n that_o be_v to_o make_v their_o heart_n fit_a temple_n for_o christ_n to_o purge_v themselves_o from_o all_o filthiness_n of_o flesh_n and_o spirit_n to_o labour_v to_o walk_v in_o his_o fear_n to_o leave_v all_o even_o the_o belove_a sin_n and_o to_o delight_v in_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o inner_a man_n they_o will_v not_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n they_o be_v not_o yet_o humble_v and_o therefore_o they_o can_v be_v save_v the_o jubilee_n among_o the_o jew_n may_v be_v a_o very_a fit_a resemblance_n hereof_o and_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v may_v be_v so_o intend_v to_o resemble_v the_o glorious_a liberty_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n now_o the_o jubilee_n be_v this_o all_o servant_n shall_v then_o go_v free_a but_o if_o any_o will_v not_o as_o of_o they_o there_o be_v many_o than_o he_o be_v to_o be_v bore_v in_o the_o ear_n and_o to_o be_v a_o perpetual_a servant_n so_o when_o we_o preach_v the_o gospel_n this_o be_v the_o great_a jubilee_n every_o man_n may_v be_v free_a the_o son_n come_v to_o that_o end_n and_o it_o be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o truth_n to_o make_v man_n free_a the_o son_n come_v to_o deliver_v every_o man_n out_o of_o the_o gaol_n if_o he_o will_v but_o man_n will_v not_o be_v at_o liberty_n they_o will_v be_v servant_n still_o because_o they_o be_v never_o humble_v they_o never_o feel_v the_o heaviness_n of_o satan_n yoke_n they_o be_v never_o weary_v with_o sin_n for_o if_o they_o be_v so_o this_o will_v be_v acceptable_a news_n but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o now_o mark_v this_o by_o the_o way_n if_o a_o servant_n will_v not_o go_v free_a he_o shall_v not_o afterward_o be_v at_o liberty_n to_o go_v and_o stay_v when_o he_o list_v but_o his_o

in_o this_o condition_n i_o will_v repent_v and_o come_v out_o of_o it_o know_v that_o be_v not_o enough_o god_n will_v not_o wait_v thy_o leisure_n if_o thou_o will_v not_o come_v out_o take_v heed_n

be_v this_o there_o be_v a_o revelation_n of_o wrath_n against_o all_o unrighteousness_n of_o man_n 2._o man_n and_o that_o be_v another_o thing_n that_o will_v humble_v we_o for_o there_o must_v be_v two_o thing_n to_o do_v it_o one_o be_v to_o see_v our_o sin_n to_o know_v that_o there_o be_v no_o worth_n no_o excellency_n no_o worthiness_n at_o all_o in_o we_o and_o the_o second_o be_v to_o have_v a_o apprehension_n of_o wrath_n due_a for_o sin_n and_o so_o his_o misery_n under_o the_o same_o though_o a_o man_n be_v never_o so_o miserable_a yet_o if_o he_o have_v a_o bottom_n to_o stand_v on_o he_o will_v not_o go_v to_o christ_n but_o when_o he_o see_v his_o own_o nothingnesse_n and_o withal_o that_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n hang_v over_o he_o so_o that_o he_o must_v sink_v utter_o and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o help_v he_o when_o both_o these_o concur_v a_o man_n be_v humble_v man_n may_v have_v one_o without_o the_o other_o as_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n o_o you_o generation_n of_o viper_n who_o have_v warn_v you_o to_o fly_v from_o the_o wrath_n to_o come_v they_o be_v sensible_a of_o wrath_n and_o have_v so_o much_o to_o humble_v they_o but_o they_o do_v not_o see_v that_o viperous_a serpentine_a evil_a disposition_n that_o be_v in_o themselves_o again_o many_o man_n may_v see_v their_o sin_n and_o acknowledge_v the_o insufficiency_n of_o all_o they_o have_v but_o they_o be_v not_o sensible_a of_o wrath_n god_n have_v not_o charge_v sin_n upon_o their_o conscience_n nor_o reveal_v his_o wrath_n and_o therefore_o they_o go_v on_o in_o a_o senseless_a manner_n and_o be_v no_o more_o move_v with_o the_o other_o
therefore_o since_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n shall_v in_o such_o a_o manner_n be_v reveal_v against_o such_o as_o withhold_v the_o truth_n in_o unrighteousness_n you_o need_v no_o other_o argument_n to_o show_v that_o the_o sin_n be_v great_a again_o one_o evidence_n more_o be_v in_o this_o very_a chapter_n that_o be_v from_o the_o kind_n of_o punishment_n for_o punishment_n you_o know_v where_o the_o judge_n be_v just_a be_v according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o sin_n now_o mark_v god_n punish_v this_o with_o give_v they_o up_o to_o a_o reprobate_a sense_n for_o this_o cause_n say_v the_o apostle_n rom._n 1.26_o god_n give_v they_o up_o unto_o vile_a affection_n and_o afterward_o in_o the_o eight_o and_o twenty_o verse_n as_o they_o regard_v not_o to_o know_v god_n even_o so_o or_o therefore_o god_n deliver_v they_o up_o to_o a_o reprobate_a mind_n that_o be_v a_o mind_n without_o knowledge_n a_o injudicious_a mind_n that_o can_v judge_v of_o thing_n and_o look_v in_o all_o the_o book_n of_o god_n among_o all_o the_o army_n of_o sorrow_n there_o be_v not_o any_o like_o this_o to_o be_v give_v up_o to_o vile_a affection_n to_o lust_n to_o a_o injudicious_a mind_n in_o matter_n of_o god_n and_o thing_n belong_v to_o their_o salvation_n this_o punishment_n show_v the_o greatness_n of_o the_o sin_n but_o man_n slight_a this_o as_o it_o be_v the_o great_a judgement_n so_o it_o be_v the_o least_o feel_v man_n lie_v at_o rest_n they_o be_v cast_v into_o a_o dead_a sleep_n but_o it_o be_v like_o the_o sleep_n of_o they_o that_o have_v crazy_a brain_n they_o wake_v in_o a_o frenzy_n so_o these_o shall_v wake_v in_o a_o horrible_a astonishment_n their_o sleep_n be_v such_o a_o calm_a as_o will_v end_v in_o a_o tempest_n and_o such_o a_o tempest_n as_o shall_v
