answer_n that_o refresh_v his_o weary_a soul_n more_o than_o all_o the_o world_n be_v this_o loe_o thy_o iniquity_n be_v forgive_v and_o thy_o sin_n purge_v all_o faithful_a minister_n must_v here_o conscience_n learn_v the_o true_a way_n of_o comfort_v trouble_v and_o distress_a conscience_n namely_o first_o to_o draw_v he_o unto_o a_o sight_n of_o some_o particular_a sin_n then_o to_o summon_v he_o into_o god_n presence_n and_o there_o to_o arraign_v he_o for_o those_o sin_n until_o the_o view_n of_o the_o foulness_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n justice_n have_v sufficient_o humble_v he_o and_o then_o to_o labour_v to_o persuade_v his_o conscience_n upon_o good_a ground_n of_o the_o pardon_n of_o those_o sin_n by_o christ_n jesus_n this_o be_v the_o way_n that_o god_n use_v and_o devise_v this_o be_v the_o sure_a way_n that_o can_v fail_v some_o think_v that_o all_o trouble_n of_o mind_n be_v nothing_o but_o melancholy_a and_o therefore_o psalm_n think_v nothing_o needs_o but_o physic_n and_o outward_a comfort_n but_o he_o that_o consider_v in_o what_o case_n the_o prophet_n here_o be_v or_o david_n when_o he_o make_v the_o 6._o the_o 32._o or_o the_o 51._o psalm_n will_v be_v of_o another_o mind_n and_o will_v find_v that_o nothing_o can_v proper_o trouble_v the_o mind_n but_o sin_n therefore_o as_o the_o wise_a physician_n in_o his_o cure_n first_o search_v out_o the_o cause_n and_o then_o endeavour_n to_o take_v it_o away_o so_o the_o good_a physician_n of_o the_o soul_n must_v first_o of_o all_o search_n into_o the_o cause_n of_o his_o sickness_n that_o be_v his_o sin_n and_o must_v take_v they_o away_o which_o if_o they_o do_v not_o than_o all_o their_o labour_n be_v lose_v for_o all_o the_o company_n music_n recreation_n wine_n diet_n nay_o all_o worldly_a comfort_n &_o delight_n if_o it_o be_v the_o advancement_n to_o a_o kingdom_n can_v so_o much_o comfort_v the_o distress_a soul_n of_o a_o sinner_n as_o this_o voice_n of_o a_o minister_n speak_v from_o god_n upon_o good_a ground_n thy_o sin_n be_v forgive_v thou_o now_o to_o lay_v down_o what_o be_v those_o true_a and_o good_a ground_n whereupon_o a_o minister_n may_v conscience_n safe_o and_o comfortable_o pronounce_v pardon_n of_o sin_n to_o a_o sinner_n belong_v proper_o to_o another_o place_n in_o the_o next_o place_n let_v we_o here_o observe_v repent_v how_o the_o lord_n afore_o he_o renew_v the_o prophet_n commission_n or_o send_v he_o to_o preach_v to_o the_o people_n first_o humble_v he_o for_o his_o sin_n and_o then_o upon_o his_o repentance_n give_v he_o pardon_v teach_v we_o that_o no_o minister_n be_v well_o qualify_v to_o the_o holy_a duty_n of_o the_o ministry_n unless_o he_o have_v true_o repent_v of_o his_o sin_n and_o have_v obtain_v pardon_n and_o mercy_n in_o the_o messiah_n minister_n labour_n for_o qualification_n but_o the_o true_a minister_n of_o god_n will_v labour_v for_o this_o qualification_n above_o all_o other_o for_o doubtless_o he_o shall_v pronounce_v most_o powerful_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n to_o other_o to_o who_o conscience_n god_n have_v pronounce_v pardon_n of_o his_o own_o in_o the_o last_o place_n let_v we_o observe_v how_o the_o prophet_n be_v to_o be_v comfort_v before_o they_o he_o go_v this_o new_a embassage_n the_o lord_n be_v so_o careful_a for_o he_o that_o

better_o out_o of_o which_o practice_n of_o god_n we_o learn_v many_o point_n first_o see_v how_o god_n magnify_v mean_n mean_n he_o can_v work_v without_o they_o and_o so_o he_o do_v in_o the_o creation_n give_v light_n to_o the_o world_n diverse_a day_n before_o there_o be_v sun_n but_o since_o the_o order_n of_o 17._o nature_n be_v establish_v he_o general_o use_v mean_n not_o only_o in_o his_o ordinary_n but_o even_o in_o his_o miraculous_a action_n and_o they_o though_o he_o use_v not_o always_o the_o ordinary_a and_o direct_a mean_n yet_o mean_v he_o general_o use_v though_o they_o seem_v contrary_a as_o here_o in_o this_o place_n and_o the_o same_o will_v be_v find_v true_a in_o almost_o all_o the_o miracle_n both_o of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n this_o therefore_o commend_v unto_o all_o purpose_n man_n the_o use_n of_o such_o good_a mean_n as_o god_n providence_n have_v ordain_v of_o any_o duty_n or_o effect_v of_o any_o thing_n that_o do_v belong_v unto_o we_o to_o do_v and_o not_o to_o depend_v upon_o immediate_a help_n from_o heaven_n as_o many_o fond_a and_o fantastical_a man_n do_v who_o be_v therefore_o oftentimes_o just_o forsake_v of_o god_n and_o leave_v destitute_a of_o all_o help_n and_o so_o expose_v to_o shame_n and_o reproach_n second_o see_v here_o the_o mighty_a power_n of_o god_n ordinance_n how_o it_o appear_v weakness_n in_o weakness_n such_o be_v all_o his_o great_a work_n in_o the_o creation_n he_o bring_v light_a out_o of_o darkness_n in_o our_o redemption_n he_o bring_v we_o life_n out_o of_o death_n in_o our_o

of_o the_o world_n which_o be_v stark_a foolishness_n to_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o world_n and_o so_o here_o he_o cleanse_v the_o prophet_n by_o a_o coal_n of_o fire_n which_o will_v rather_o

they_o seem_v so_o contrary_a or_o so_o weak_a in_o themselves_o or_o in_o their_o mean_n let_v this_o teach_v all_o man_n not_o to_o contemn_v the_o sacrament_n though_o the_o outward_a base_a
