there_o be_v no_o such_o word_n as_o these_o to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o whole_a scripture_n and_o 2._o the_o place_n where_o these_o word_n be_v find_v it_o be_v only_o in_o the_o common_a liturgy_n which_o liturgy_n be_v but_o a_o abstract_n of_o the_o popish_a mass_n for_o though_o all_o that_o be_v in_o the_o popish_a mass_n be_v not_o in_o the_o common-prayer_n yet_o all_o that_o be_v in_o the_o common-prayer_n be_v in_o the_o popish_a mass_n it_o may_v be_v you_o will_v scarce_o believe_v this_o but_o it_o be_v very_o true_a as_o you_o may_v see_v if_o you_o look_v into_o the_o

fall_v seven_o time_n not_o sin_v seven_o time_n he_o do_v not_o fall_v into_o sin_n but_o into_o affliction_n the_o righteous_a fall_v seven_o time_n that_o be_v the_o godly_a in_o this_o world_n

shall_v now_o give_v you_o a_o more_o particular_a view_n of_o they_o without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n the_o word_n as_o they_o be_v render_v in_o our_o translation_n incline_v this_o way_n for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v without_o any_o peculiar_a interest_n and_o propriety_n in_o god_n but_o these_o word_n without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n in_o the_o greek_a signify_v atheist_n in_o the_o world_n that_o be_v they_o do_v so_o live_v as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o the_o world_n so_o than_o the_o word_n be_v thus_o open_v there_o be_v two_o thing_n involve_v in_o this_o phrase_n without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n 1._o that_o they_o be_v atheist_n in_o the_o world_n that_o be_v so_o live_v as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o the_o world_n 2._o they_o be_v live_v in_o the_o world_n without_o any_o peculiar_a interest_n or_o propriety_n in_o god_n doctr._n from_o the_o first_o of_o these_o that_o they_o be_v atheist_n in_o the_o world_n you_o may_v note_v this_o doctr._n that_o every_o man_n in_o the_o state_n of_o unregeneracy_n he_o be_v a_o atheist_n in_o the_o world_n he_o be_v a_o man_n that_o live_v as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o the_o world_n every_o man_n in_o the_o state_n of_o unregeneracy_n be_v a_o practical_a atheist_n now_o when_o i_o tell_v you_o that_o every_o wicked_a man_n be_v a_o atheist_n do_v not_o mistake_v i_o for_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o atheist_n a_o atheist_n in_o judgement_n and_o a_o atheist_n in_o practice_n a_o atheist_n in_o judgement_n be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o pagan_n and_o heathen_n be_v but_o a_o atheist_n in_o practice_n be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o life_n as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o the_o world_n so_o that_o the_o doctrine_n be_v that_o every_o unregenerate_a man_n be_v a_o practical_a atheist_n that_o be_v he_o so_o live_v as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o the_o world_n psal_n 14._o 1._o the_o fool_n have_v say_v in_o his_o heart_n there_o be_v 1._o no_o god_n that_o be_v he_o so_o live_v as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n that_o take_v notice_n of_o what_o he_o do_v thou_o be_v a_o practical_a atheist_n oh_o man_n that_o so_o live_v in_o the_o world_n as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o the_o world_n and_o here_o 1._o i_o shall_v show_v you_o how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o any_o man_n be_v so_o gross_o wicked_a to_o live_v as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o the_o world_n and_o 2._o i_o shall_v give_v you_o the_o character_n of_o a_o man_n that_o do_v live_v after_o this_o manner_n 1._o how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o man_n shall_v be_v so_o gross_o wicked_a such_o practical_a atheist_n to_o live_v as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o atheism_n the_o world_n i_o shall_v give_v you_o four_o ground_n of_o it_o 1._o the_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o of_o god_n forbearance_n towards_o they_o eccles_n 8._o 11._o because_o 11._o god_n do_v not_o speedy_o execute_v judgement_n upon_o wicked_a man_n when_o they_o commit_v a_o fin_n therefore_o they_o run_v into_o thought_n of_o atheism_n and_o sin_n with_o greediness_n as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o the_o world_n as_o in_o psal_n 50._o 21._o these_o thing_n say_v god_n thou_o 21_o have_v do_v and_o i_o hold_v my_o tongue_n therefore_o thou_o think_v that_o i_o be_v like_o thou_o but_o i_o will_v reprove_v thou_o and_o set_v thy_o sin_n in_o order_n before_o thou_o because_o god_n hold_v his_o tongue_n and_o do_v not_o reprove_v they_o for_o their_o sin_n therefore_o they_o think_v he_o to_o be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o themselves_o that_o he_o be_v a_o sinner_n as_o well_o as_o they_o because_o sentence_n against_o a_o evil_a work_n be_v not_o speedy_o execute_v therefore_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v set_v in_o they_o to_o do_v evil_a the_o for_o bearance_n of_o god_n to_o wicked_a man_n make_v they_o run_v on_o into_o practical_a atheism_n whereas_o this_o be_v no_o ground_n at_o all_o to_o encourage_v thou_o to_o run_v on_o in_o sin_n for_o 1._o the_o forbearance_n of_o god_n judgement_n be_v never_o intend_v by_o god_n to_o breed_v atheism_n in_o thy_o heart_n but_o to_o provoke_v thou_o to_o repentance_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o bountifulness_n 4._o and_o long_o suffer_v of_o god_n shall_v lead_v we_o to_o repentance_n 2._o this_o will_v aggravate_v thy_o condemnation_n to_o make_v the_o forbearance_n of_o god_n a_o provocation_n to_o thou_o to_o go_v on_o in_o sin_n and_o 3._o know_v this_o that_o though_o god_n do_v forbear_v a_o while_n from_o punish_v of_o thou_o for_o thy_o sin_n yet_o he_o do_v neither_o forgive_v thou_o nor_o forget_v thou_o as_o in_o nahum_n 1._o 3._o the_o lord_n be_v slow_a to_o anger_n but_o he_o be_v great_a in_o power_n and_o he_o will_v not_o sure_o clear_v the_o wicked_a though_o god_n do_v forbear_v thou_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o forget_v thou_o so_o in_o eccles_n 8._o 12._o though_o a_o sinner_n do_v 12._o evil_a a_o hundred_o time_n and_o his_o day_n be_v prolong_v yet_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v well_o with_o he_o in_o the_o latter_a end_n 2._o another_o ground_n whereby_o wicked_a man_n do_v plunge_v themselves_o into_o atheism_n be_v this_o because_o they_o see_v other_o man_n that_o be_v know_v man_n and_o profess_v religion_n man_n that_o do_v pretend_v to_o know_v god_n and_o love_n god_n and_o worship_n god_n when_o wicked_a man_n shall_v see_v such_o man_n as_o these_o fall_n into_o great_a and_o gross_a sin_n and_o live_v so_o unanswerable_a to_o their_o profession_n this_o make_v they_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o god_n in_o the_o world_n as_o in_o rom._n 2._o 24._o say_v the_o apostle_n there_o the_o name_n of_o god_n be_v blaspheme_v 24_o among_o the_o gentile_n through_o you_o i_o have_v read_v a_o hrange_fw-mi story_n of_o a_o woman_n here_o in_o england_n that_o call_v in_o question_n the_o deity_n whether_o there_o be_v a_o god_n or_o no_o and_o a_o minister_n come_v to_o she_o to_o convince_v she_o and_o satisfy_v her_o conscience_n and_o to_o persuade_v she_o into_o a_o belief_n that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n ask_v of_o she_o this_o question_n how_o she_o come_v to_o be_v a_o atheist_n she_o answer_v the_o very_a first_o thing_n that_o cause_v she_o to_o entertain_v thought_n of_o atheism_n to_o believe_v there_o be_v no_o god_n be_v the_o see_v of_o he_o live_v so_o
