yet_o everye_o one_o that_o be_v find_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n shall_v be_v delyver_v and_o to_o the_o same_o effect_n it_o be_v that_o this_o book_n be_v ordain_v for_o this_o people_n to_o be_v as_o it_o be_v their_o passeover_n to_o avoid_v and_o escape_v the_o day_n of_o misery_n which_o the_o lord_n do_v threaten_v to_o bring_v upon_o they_o provide_v that_o the_o door_n post_n of_o your_o conscience_n may_v be_v sprinkle_v with_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lamb_n or_o that_o your_o repentance_n may_v be_v record_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n and_o you_o be_v sure_a of_o a_o everlasting_a passeover_n to_o escape_v god_n most_o dreadful_a vengeance_n but_o if_o you_o will_v see_v that_o prerogative_n which_o be_v instar_fw-la omnium_fw-la in_o steed_n of_o all_o other_o then_o consider_v again_o and_o again_o of_o that_o which_o be_v write_v in_o 20._o apoc._n ver_fw-la 12._o wherein_o the_o glorious_a majesty_n of_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n be_v most_o true_o describe_v even_o as_o he_o shall_v come_v to_o judge_v the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a for_o it_o be_v say_v and_o i_o see_v the_o dead_a both_o great_a and_o small_a stand_n before_o god_n and_o the_o book_n be_v open_v &_o another_o book_n be_v open_v which_o be_v the_o book_n of_o life_n &_o the_o dead_a be_v judge_v of_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n according_a to_o their_o work_n but_o now_o what_o be_v these_o book_n that_o shall_v be_v open_v before_o the_o book_n of_o life_n be_v open_v doubtless_o these_o three_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n the_o book_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o book_n of_o conscience_n first_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v be_v open_v and_o lay_v before_o we_o that_o it_o may_v appear_v what_o duty_n we_o ought_v to_o have_v do_v towards_o god_n and_o man_n through_o love_n and_o even_o as_o moses_n command_v the_o levite_n to_o put_v this_o book_n in_o the_o side_n of_o the_o ark_n that_o it_o may_v be_v for_o a_o witness_n against_o they_o when_o they_o disobey_v the_o same_o deu._n 31._o so_o shall_v all_o the_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n in_o the_o fearful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n find_v this_o book_n a_o swift_a witness_n against_o they_o and_o if_o josias_n rend_v his_o clothes_n and_o weep_v for_o woe_n when_o he_o hear_v the_o law_n red_a and_o thereby_o see_v how_o much_o duty_n be_v require_v and_o how_o little_a he_o have_v perform_v what_o sorrow_n and_o heaviness_n shall_v compass_v we_o about_o and_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a dissolve_v our_o tear_n and_o turn_v they_o into_o drop_n of_o blood_n when_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o this_o our_o severe_a judge_n we_o shall_v both_o hear_v and_o see_v not_o only_o what_o we_o have_v leave_v undo_v in_o that_o book_n command_v but_o also_o what_o we_o have_v do_v therein_o forbid_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n therefore_o let_v we_o not_o only_o be_v hearer_n of_o the_o law_n but_o doer_n also_o lest_o then_o we_o find_v god_n favour_n unrecoverable_a and_o our_o repentance_n unprofitable_a second_o the_o book_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v open_v that_o thereby_o it_o may_v appear_v what_o mercy_n what_o grace_n what_o free_a pardon_n what_o remission_n of_o sin_n what_o imputation_n of_o righteousness_n and_o what_o assurance_n of_o life_n and_o salvation_n you_o may_v have_v have_v in_o christ_n jesus_n if_o you_o have_v be_v so_o happy_a to_o have_v seek_v it_o by_o repentance_n and_o to_o have_v lay_v hold_n upon_o it_o by_o faith_n at_o the_o open_n of_o this_o book_n shall_v you_o see_v before_o your_o eye_n all_o the_o sweet_a promise_n and_o tender_a invitation_n which_o our_o saviour_n christ_n offer_v unto_o you_o through_o preach_v of_o the_o gospel_n to_o have_v draw_v you_o to_o repentance_n then_o shall_v all_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o bitter_a passion_n be_v lay_v open_a before_o your_o eye_n and_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o he_o be_v debase_v himself_o to_o have_v bring_v you_o to_o honour_n that_o he_o be_v wound_v himself_o to_o have_v heal_v your_o wound_n of_o sin_n and_o that_o he_o die_v himself_o to_o have_v save_v his_o enemy_n from_o death_n and_o to_o have_v purchase_v eternal_a life_n to_o all_o penitent_a sinner_n and_o as_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v show_v what_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v do_v so_o the_o book_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v show_v what_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v believe_v and_o both_o to_o one_o end_n christ_n know_v that_o so_o much_o more_o just_a and_o dreadful_a may_v be_v our_o judgement_n o_o you_o proud_a
