in_o ezech._n 1827._o when_o the_o wicked_a turn_v away_o from_o his_o wickedness_n that_o he_o have_v commit_v and_o do_v that_o which_o be_v lawful_a and_o right_a he_o shall_v save_v his_o soul_n

mercy_n upon_o he_o so_o here_o we_o see_v to_o who_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n belong_v namely_o to_o the_o penitent_a sinner_n to_o those_o that_o leave_v sin_n and_o embrace_v godliness_n to_o those_o that_o forsake_v his_o own_o way_n and_o imagination_n &_o turn_v unto_o the_o lord_n and_o as_o for_o such_o as_o walk_v on_o in_o their_o own_o way_n and_o follow_v y_z e_z delight_n of_o sin_n without_o any_o sorrow_n or_o purpose_n to_o leave_v they_o they_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n &_o though_o jesus_n christ_n have_v ●●●●red_v a_o hundred_o death_n which_o can_v not_o be_v yet_o shall_v no_o unpenitent_a sinner_n have_v remission_n of_o his_o sin_n by_o his_o death_n nor_o any_o other_o benefit_n of_o his_o passion_n for_o they_o belong_v only_o to_o his_o church_n and_o choose_a people_n here_o upon_o the_o earth_n he_o therefore_o that_o be_v not_o of_o the_o church_n he_o that_o be_v not_o graft_v into_o christ_n by_o faith_n he_o that_o be_v not_o a_o member_n of_o his_o mystical_a hody_n can_v enjoy_v nothing_o by_o christ_n death_n if_o any_o man_n abide_v not_o in_o i_o he_o be_v east_n

his_o heart_n say_v i_o shall_v have_v peace_n although_o i_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o stubbornness_n of_o our_o own_o heart_n thus_o add_v drunkenness_n to_o thirst_n the_o lord_n will_v not_o be_v merciful_a unto_o he_o but_o then_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o jealousy_n shall_v smoke_v against_o that_o man_n and_o every_o curse_n that_o be_v write_v in_o this_o book_n shall_v light_v upon_o he_o so_o that_o god_n say_v plain_o he_o have_v no_o mercy_n for_o such_o as_o walk_v in_o the_o vain_a delight_n of_o sin_n and_o in_o the_o stubbornness_n of_o their_o own_o heart_n add_v drunkenness_n to_o thirst_n that_o be_v one_o horrible_a sin_n to_o another_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n to_o see_v how_o y_a e_o blind_a worm_n of_o this_o earth_n

by_o christ_n death_n as_o though_o they_o will_v make_v it_o a_o bawd_n to_o their_o sin_n &_o so_o work_v that_o villainy_n against_o christ_n i_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v by_o christ_n death_n aswell_o as_o the_o best_a of_o they_o all_o say_v some_o but_o where_o be_v thy_o repentance_n thou_o miserable_a wretch_n do_v thou_o think_v that_o god_n mercy_n be_v common_a to_o all_o and_o christ_n death_n a_o bawd_n for_o thy_o sin_n no_o no_o when_o it_o conune_v to_o the_o upshotte_n thou_o shall_v stop_v short_a for_o it_o will_v prove_v far_o otherwise_o for_o thou_o shall_v find_v

and_o cause_v they_o to_o bristle_v and_o foam_n at_o the_o mouth_n like_o wild_a boar_n and_o to_o speak_v evil_a of_o they_o that_o be_v turn_v unto_o god_n for_o the_o world_n love_v his_o own_o
