A10931	Certaine sermons preached and penned by Richard Rogers preacher of Weathersfield in Essex, directly tending to these three ends. First, to bring any bad person (that hath not committed the sinne that is vnpardonable) to true conuersion. Secondly, to stablish and settle all such as are conuerted, in faith and repentance. Thirdly, to leade them forward (that are so setled) in the Christian life, to bring foorth the fruite of both. Whereunto are annexed diuers godlie and learned sermons of another reuerend and faithfull seruant of God, Mr. Samuel Wright, Bachelor of Diuinitie, late president of Sidney Colledge in Camebridge, deceased, tending also to the same ends, with diuers particular points in both, profitable and fit for these times.

set_v forth_o with_o the_o same_o mind_n for_o the_o common_a edification_n of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n that_o when_o it_o be_v see_v that_o such_o as_o be_v in_o high_a place_n and_o zealous_a

see_v by_o peter_n word_n to_o christian_a woman_n where_o he_o say_v let_v the_o wife_n be_v subject_a to_o their_o husband_n 3.1_o that_o even_o they_o that_o obey_v not_o the_o word_n may_v

win_v they_o to_o god_n and_o to_o help_v they_o towards_o eternal_a life_n much_o more_o shall_v they_o persuade_v they_o to_o forsake_v their_o bad_a course_n and_o to_o embrace_v a_o better_a as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n talk_v with_o that_o woman_n of_o samaria_n bring_v she_o to_o repentance_n 4._o and_o this_o be_v say_v of_o the_o second_o mean_v of_o the_o conversion_n of_o the_o jailor_n though_o far_o off_o which_o as_o it_o be_v a_o degree_n before_o the_o former_a so_o they_o who_o be_v move_v as_o he_o be_v be_v sensible_o set_v forward_o as_o he_o be_v though_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o many_o come_n thus_o far_o and_o further_o from_o their_o evil_a course_n may_v yet_o be_v far_o enough_o off_o from_o true_a conversion_n but_o let_v we_o hear_v the_o three_o mean_v

before_o they_o in_o token_n of_o reverence_n to_o they_o and_o so_o fall_v to_o near_a acquaintance_n with_o they_o who_o be_v good_a man_n it_o give_v hope_n of_o his_o further_a good_a take_v by_o they_o and_o here_o i_o will_v stay_v a_o while_n to_o teach_v how_o we_o may_v profit_v by_o this_o to_o this_o end_n this_o i_o say_v servant_n that_o as_o his_o near_a cling_a and_o cleave_v to_o they_o be_v another_o mean_a to_o bring_v he_o to_o true_a conversion_n even_o so_o god_n use_v the_o familiarity_n and_o acquaintance_n that_o wicked_a man_n have_v with_o his_o servant_n to_o this_o

they_o have_v peace_n with_o satan_n and_o peace_n with_o the_o corruption_n of_o their_o own_o heart_n yet_o want_v they_o the_o pardon_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o therefore_o be_v at_o war_n and_o

righteous_a only_o and_o the_o faithful_a have_v need_n of_o this_o joy_n duty_n as_o we_o have_v show_v it_o be_v not_o for_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n to_o comfort_n and_o cheer_v up_o any_o but_o these_o for_o we_o know_v the_o minister_n be_v a_o physician_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o cure_v the_o disease_n and_o a_o chirurgeon_n to_o cure_v the_o wound_n of_o the_o soul_n now_o it_o be_v not_o

let_v the_o bad_a learn_fw-mi then_o to_o magnify_v the_o life_n of_o the_o faithful_a as_o the_o most_o happy_a and_o bless_a life_n for_o this_o be_v certain_a he_o be_v most_o happy_a and_o most_o
