speak_v or_o write_v it_o it_o be_v not_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n or_o goat_n nor_o the_o blood_n of_o a_o ram_n that_o can_v purge_v away_o sin_n from_o their_o conscience_n and_o after_o the_o apostle_n have_v open_v the_o mystery_n of_o divinity_n who_o have_v a_o divine_a and_o spiritual_a skill_n in_o unfolding_a the_o restoration_n of_o mankind_n he_o declare_v plain_o that_o when_o the_o offer_n be_v make_v by_o aaron_n for_o sinner_n even_o then_o there_o remain_v still_o a_o conscience_n of_o sin_n for_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o goat_n shall_v take_v away_o sin_n so_o that_o their_o outward_a performance_n and_o their_o outward_a service_n they_o do_v but_o point_n out_o the_o mediator_n they_o have_v a_o point_a finger_n as_o it_o be_v to_o the_o real_a true_a and_o everlasting_a mediator_n christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v make_v a_o mediator_n betwixt_o god_n and_o man_n that_o by_o and_o through_o he_o man_n may_v be_v again_o reconcile_v to_o god_n so_o that_o now_o in_o these_o gospel_n day_n wherein_o god_n be_v open_v the_o mystery_n of_o life_n and_o salvation_n to_o the_o intent_n and_o purpose_n that_o the_o son_n and_o daughter_n of_o man_n may_v be_v restore_v again_o unto_o their_o primitive_a enjoyment_n of_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n now_o in_o these_o day_n it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o christian_n and_o of_o all_o that_o be_v seek_v the_o welfare_n of_o their_o immortal_a soul_n that_o they_o have_v their_o eye_n and_o their_o heart_n unto_o jesus_n as_o unto_o one_o that_o be_v able_a to_o

it_o come_v plain_o to_o pass_v according_a to_o that_o short_a and_o confident_a assertion_n of_o the_o author_n to_o the_o hebrew_n that_o without_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v

teach_v we_o in_o our_o day_n that_o many_o have_v be_v exercise_v in_o a_o kind_n of_o a_o religious_a service_n and_o worship_n that_o never_o in_o their_o life_n have_v faith_n enough_o to_o believe_v the_o thing_n that_o they_o pray_v for_o and_o they_o be_v without_o faith_n for_o when_o people_n pray_v to_o god_n to_o send_v his_o holy_a spirit_n into_o their_o heart_n that_o they_o may_v keep_v his_o commandment_n to_o their_o life_n end_v they_o have_v not_o faith_n to_o believe_v it_o and_o when_o they_o pray_v thy_o will_v be_v do_v on_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n this_o be_v a_o religious_a performance_n but_o i_o question_v whether_o it_o be_v do_v in_o faith_n if_o not_o it_o be_v but_o a_o increase_v in_o sin_n a_o addition_n to_o sin_n where_o be_v the_o man_n that_o be_v exercise_v in_o pray_v to_o god_n that_o believe_v that_o ever_o such_o a_o thing_n be_v like_a to_o come_v to_o pass_v go_v where_o you_o will_v in_o this_o or_o the_o other_o nation_n and_o inquire_v of_o people_n about_o their_o faith_n they_o believe_v there_o be_v no_o possibility_n of_o extirpate_v and_o root_a out_o of_o sin_n while_o they_o live_v upon_o the_o earth_n therefore_o all_o their_o prayer_n for_o it_o be_v vain_a and_o their_o faith_n a_o vain_a faith_n and_o it_o be_v high_a time_n in_o such_o a_o day_n as_o this_o when_o man_n be_v faithless_a and_o unbelieving_a to_o preach_v up_o the_o object_n of_o faith_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n people_n be_v of_o divers_a faith_n and_o of_o divers_a belief_n but_o we_o have_v find_v by_o experience_n that_o they_o do_v they_o no_o good_a they_o do_v not_o bring_v a_o thing_n to_o pass_v that_o of_o necessity_n must_v be_v bring_v to_o pass_v ere_o they_o can_v be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n their_o faith_n do_v not_o cleanse_v the_o heart_n nor_o extend_v so_o far_o as_o to_o believe_v that_o ere_o they_o shall_v be_v cleanse_v in_o all_o the_o worship_n and_o religion_n that_o they_o perform_v they_o come_v not_o to_o this_o faith_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v make_v clean_o all_o that_o be_v do_v be_v but_o in_o sin_n and_o uncleanness_n they_o can_v bring_v a_o clean_a sacrifice_n out_o of_o a_o unclean_a vessel_n and_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v concern_v this_o subject_a a_o evil_a tree_n can_v bring_v forth_o good_a fruit._n but_o there_o must_v be_v good_a fruit_n bring_v forth_o how_o must_v we_o do_v it_o make_v the_o tree_n good_a and_o the_o fruit_n will_v be_v good_a when_o that_o man_n vain_a jangle_n about_o religion_n and_o religious_a

believe_v that_o it_o will_v make_v the_o tree_n good_a and_o cleanse_v the_o heart_n and_o transform_v man_n by_o renew_v the_o spirit_n of_o their_o mind_n so_o that_o religion_n it_o must_v begin_v within_o and_o it_o be_v not_o our_o change_v our_o form_n of_o worship_n from_o one_o form_n to_o another_o and_o take_v up_o this_o and_o the_o other_o opinion_n that_o do_v change_v our_o heart_n sad_a experience_n do_v teach_v we_o that_o man_n may_v carry_v over_o their_o old_a lust_n into_o a_o new_a religion_n we_o can_v carry_v over_o our_o old_a inclination_n into_o our_o new_a opinion_n for_o though_o the_o form_n of_o worship_n be_v change_v the_o heart_n remain_v unchanged_a and_o the_o lust_n unmortified_a their_o religion_n be_v in_o vain_a let_v they_o be_v of_o what_o
