as_o this_o be_v than_o it_o be_v a_o forerunner_n of_o destruction_n three_o only_a here_o be_v the_o question_n when_o be_v it_o thus_o for_o every_o spirit_n of_o drunkenness_n be_v not_o a_o forerunner_n of_o destruction_n i_o shall_v answer_v this_o brief_o in_o three_o thing_n from_o the_o text_n 1._o when_o the_o lord_n do_v fill_v all_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o jerusalem_n for_o the_o body_n of_o they_o though_o some_o particular_n it_o may_v be_v otherwise_o with_o they_o 2._o when_o god_n fill_v man_n with_o this_o man_n may_v be_v drink_v but_o yet_o there_o may_v be_v some_o room_n for_o some_o wholesome_a counsel_n but_o now_o when_o man_n shall_v be_v fill_v full_a with_o their_o delusion_n that_o there_o be_v no_o room_n for_o wholesome_a counsel_n that_o they_o be_v uncapable_a of_o receive_v the_o counsel_n of_o peace_n and_o truth_n 3._o when_o the_o lord_n do_v give_v man_n over_o to_o this_o as_o to_o a_o judgement_n when_o the_o lord_n give_v man_n over_o to_o a_o spirit_n of_o delusion_n so_o as_o that_o the_o mean_n which_o shall_v do_v they_o good_a it_o make_v they_o worse_o when_o man_n be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o contention_n and_o the_o mean_n for_o their_o peace_n make_v they_o more_o unquiet_a when_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o shall_v awaken_v man_n it_o make_v they_o more_o secure_a and_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n abroad_o in_o the_o world_n harden_v they_o the_o more_o now_o in_o the_o four_o place_n i_o shall_v give_v you_o the_o reason_n why_o it_o be_v thus_o that_o the_o spirit_n of_o drunkenness_n be_v a_o forerunner_n of_o destruction_n merciless_a reas._o 1_o because_o now_o a_o man_n be_v immediate_o dispose_v unto_o all_o wickedness_n he_o be_v fill_v up_o his_o measure_n very_o fast_o reas._n 2._o because_o when_o the_o lord_n give_v man_n over_o to_o a_o spirit_n of_o drunkenness_n they_o can_v now_o understand_v the_o cause_n of_o their_o ruin_n they_o be_v now_o besot_v and_o blind_v the_o plague_n of_o the_o lord_n upon_o they_o be_v not_o remove_v nor_o they_o know_v not_o the_o cause_n of_o it_o reas._o 3_o this_o spirit_n of_o drunkenness_n it_o bring_v division_n among_o a_o people_n and_o this_o be_v a_o forerunner_n of_o all_o misery_n you_o need_v not_o now_o to_o doubt_v of_o a_o fire_n for_o it_o be_v begin_v already_o use_v 1._o hence_o learn_v when_o you_o see_v any_o nation_n church_n or_o people_n give_v over_o to_o a_o spirit_n of_o drunkenness_n to_o bemoan_v and_o bewail_v their_o condition_n bitter_o for_o they_o have_v the_o token_n of_o certain_a ruin_n upon_o they_o and_o for_o this_o end_n let_v we_o take_v a_o little_a pain_n to_o consider_v the_o state_n of_o god_n people_n at_o this_o day_n in_o england_n let_v we_o see_v whether_o the_o cup_n of_o this_o wine_n be_v not_o give_v to_o the_o godly_a party_n there_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n of_o it_o to_o the_o wicked_a but_o that_o it_o be_v now_o for_o the_o godly_a part_n let_v we_o examine_v it_o in_o three_o thing_n first_o have_v not_o the_o lord_n give_v they_o up_o to_o a_o spirit_n of_o blindness_n in_o matter_n of_o doctrine_n i_o will_v not_o mention_v the_o thousand_o of_o person_n doubt_v and_o stagger_v
