secret_a know_v or_o conceal_v and_o according_o receive_v their_o doom_n from_o the_o almighty_a and_o righteous_a judge_n of_o the_o world._n let_v i_o only_o therefore_o remember_v you_o that_o

in_o glorious_a majesty_n not_o as_o a_o servant_n but_o as_o a_o sovereign_n attend_v with_o all_o the_o host_n of_o heaven_n to_o call_v we_o before_o he_o and_o examine_v how_o his_o law_n have_v

particular_o this_o in_o my_o text_n which_o the_o apostle_n infer_v from_o those_o principle_n not_o to_o judge_v any_o thing_n before_o the_o time_n but_o to_o leave_v all_o to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o the_o understanding_n of_o which_o it_o will_v be_v necessary_a to_o do_v these_o three_o thing_n first_o to_o show_v what_o it_o be_v to_o judge_n second_o how_o the_o

another_o when_o they_o be_v present_v to_o our_o understanding_n as_o our_o reason_n show_v we_o there_o be_v in_o the_o thing_n themselves_o to_o discern_v for_o instance_n between_o truth_n and_o falsehood_n so_o as_o to_o approve_v the_o one_o and_o to_o reject_v the_o other_o in_o which_o sense_n we_o ought_v to_o judge_v every_o thing_n and_o to_o admit_v nothing_o till_o we_o see_v good_a reason_n to_o entertain_v it_o for_o it_o be_v a_o christian_a virtue_n to_o make_v a_o discrimination_n between_o good_a and_o bad_a true_a and_o false_a and_o as_o we_o find_v thing_n upon_o examination_n so_o to_o determine_v whether_o they_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v or_o reject_v and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n meaning_n can_v be_v to_o forbid_v we_o to_o judge_v in_o this_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n for_o he_o himself_o say_v in_o this_o very_a epistle_n chap._n x._o 15._o i_o speak_v as_o to_o wise_a man_n judge_v you_o what_o i_o say_v i._n e._n i_o desire_v not_o to_o be_v

because_o i_o may_v overlook_v many_o thing_n which_o the_o lord_n see_v and_o so_o think_v better_o of_o myself_o than_o i_o deserve_v and_o therefore_o as_o it_o follow_v v._o 4._o though_o i_o
