A81634	Gospel-mysterie or, the great union that is betwixt Christ and the saints. From Cant. 2. 16.

be_v a_o conscience_n wash_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o first_o step_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n heb._n 9_o 14._o i_o say_v the_o first_o step_n be_v to_o be_v wash_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v to_o have_v the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n clean_o do_v away_o in_o he_o as_o in_o rev._n 1._o 5._o he_o be_v the_o faithful_a witness_n that_o have_v offer_v up_o to_o god_n a_o sacrifice_n which_o have_v full_o satisfy_v he_o as_o isa_n 53._o 11._o this_o chapter_n be_v full_a of_o this_o discourse_n again_o a_o good_a conscience_n be_v so_o wash_v will_v endeavour_v to_o avoid_v all_o offence_n both_o to_o god_n and_o man_n as_o you_o see_v in_o act_n 24._o 16._o this_o wash_n and_o purge_v do_v not_o only_o make_v clean_a but_o also_o keep_v it_o clean_o it_o do_v not_o only_o justify_v the_o soul_n but_o also_o it_o sanctify_v heb._n 9_o 14._o 2._o a_o good_a conscience_n be_v a_o quick-sighted_a conscience_n and_o that_o two_o way_n in_o see_v what_o be_v good_n bad._n 1._o he_o see_v the_o good_a and_o rejoice_v as_o paul_n in_o 2._o cor._n 1._o 12._o our_o rejoice_v say_v the_o apostle_n be_v in_o the_o testimony_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n that_o with_o godly_a sincerity_n we_o have_v walk_v here_o the_o conscience_n see_v the_o good_a 2._o a_o good_a conscience_n see_v the_o evil_a and_o strive_v against_o it_o as_o you_o see_v the_o same_o apostle_n rom._n 7._o 23_o 24._o but_o i_o see_v say_v paul_n another_o law_n in_o my_o member_n o_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o here_o be_v a_o quick-sighted_a conscience_n he_o see_v the_o old_a man_n strive_v sin_n endeavour_v to_o make_v inroad_n upon_o the_o poor_a soul_n very_o often_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v happy_a for_o any_o soul_n that_o have_v a_o sight_n of_o it_o by_o this_o you_o see_v that_o a_o good_a conscience_n be_v quick_a sight_v and_o yet_o further_o such_o a_o conscience_n will_v not_o deceive_v thou_o he_o will_v not_o lie_v quiet_a when_o thou_o do_v evil_a but_o will_v tug_v with_o thou_o for_o repentance_n and_o therefore_o whoever_o thou_o be_v that_o have_v a_o dead_a conscience_n and_o that_o lie_v quiet_a see_v not_o evil_a in_o thy_o corrupt_a nature_n thou_o may_v have_v cause_n to_o fear_v that_o the_o guilt_n be_v not_o wash_v away_o but_o that_o thou_o be_v still_o in_o the_o state_n of_o nature_n again_o a_o good_a conscience_n fear_v to_o sin_n nay_o he_o tremble_v at_o it_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o it_o be_v against_o his_o god_n because_o god_n hate_v it_o therefore_o he_o hate_v it_o see_v a_o example_n of_o this_o in_o gen._n 39_o 9_o how_o shall_v i_o do_v it_o say_v joseph_n see_v the_o sin_n be_v against_o my_o god_n i_o dare_v not_o do_v it_o let_v this_o teach_v all_o that_o love_n god_n to_o answer_v satan_n and_o all_o their_o tempter_n thus_o i_o will_v not_o yield_v to_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v against_o my_o god_n again_o a_o good_a conscience_n fear_v to_o wound_v itself_o by_o leave_v und●ne_v those_o duty_n which_o god_n require_v of_o he_o and_o therefore_o his_o work_n be_v to_o keep_v itself_o pure_a and_o unspotted_a as_o paul_n say_v in_o 2_o tim._n 1._o 3._o and_o his_o work_n be_v to_o find_v out_o and_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n such_o a_o conscience_n be_v always_o fearful_a that_o he_o do_v too_o little_a for_o god_n and_o that_o his_o heart_n be_v never_o right_a enough_o in_o what_o he_o do_v these_o be_v the_o mark_n to_o know_v a_o good_a conscience_n there_o be_v many_o more_o mark_n to_o know_v a_o good_a conscience_n by_o but_o for_o the_o present_a these_o be_v all_o that_o i_o shall_v name_v this_o be_v only_o by_o the_o way_n to_o make_v the_o other_o more_o clear_a the_o next_o thing_n be_v the_o worth_n or_o value_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n although_o i_o can_v tell_v or_o declare_v the_o just_a value_n yet_o i_o shall_v show_v some_o of_o the_o worth_n or_o value_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n by_o which_o you_o shall_v see_v how_o good_a it_o be_v to_o have_v such_o a_o conscience_n and_o to_o do_v it_o i_o shall_v lay_v down_o these_o four_o ground_n which_o will_v make_v it_o appear_v why_o it_o be_v at_o such_o a_o rate_n 1._o a_o good_a conscience_n be_v worth_a much_o because_o it_o tell_v thou_o thou_o be_v at_o peace_n with_o god_n thy_o conscience_n testify_v to_o thou_o that_o thou_o be_v so_o as_o paul_n say_v 2_o cor._n 1._o 12._o 2._o a_o good_a conscience_n speak_v peace_n to_o thou_o and_o excuse_v thou_o as_o paul_n say_v ro._n 2._o 15._o when_o satan_n and_o all_o thy_o accuser_n fly_v in_o thy_o face_n thy_o conscience_n tell_v thou_o christ_n have_v pay_v and_o satisfy_v the_o just_a law_n of_o god_n to_o the_o full_a and_o that_o thou_o be_v acquit_v full_o this_o be_v of_o much_o worth_n to_o thou_o and_o thou_o can_v not_o set_v worth_a enough_o on_o it_o 3._o the_o comfort_n of_o thy_o life_n be_v much_o in_o this_o that_o thou_o have_v not_o a_o fear_a conscience_n neither_o a_o dead_a conscience_n neither_o a_o conscience_n subject_v to_o dead_a work_n but_o that_o thy_o conscience_n be_v awake_a and_o feel_v and_o be_v sensible_a of_o evil_n and_o also_o of_o good_a and_o that_o it_o tell_v thou_o daily_o without_o flattery_n how_o the_o case_n stand_v with_o thou_o i_o say_v such_o a_o conscience_n be_v much_o to_o be_v value_v that_o deal_v plain_o and_o fly_v in_o thy_o face_n when_o thou_o sin_v and_o that_o will_v never_o leave_v thou_o till_o thou_o see_v and_o repent_v of_o it_o and_o also_o when_o thou_o do_v that_o which_o be_v good_a that_o conscience_n will_v also_o tell_v thou_o thou_o do_v thy_o duty_n and_o thou_o may_v expect_v god_n and_o his_o spirit_n with_o thou_o in_o do_v his_o will_n search_n and_o see_v now_o whether_o this_o be_v not_o worth_a much_o 4._o the_o worth_n and_o value_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n be_v very_o high_a at_o the_o time_n of_o death_n when_o death_n come_v to_o take_v thy_o life_n what_o be_v a_o good_a conscience_n worth_n then_o o_o then_o it_o be_v worth_a much_o what_o will_v a_o man_n who_o conscience_n condemn_v he_o give_v then_o for_o this_o good_a conscience_n even_o ten_o thousand_o world_n if_o he_o have_v they_o i_o tell_v thou_o that_o then_o it_o will_v bring_v thou_o into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n with_o joy_n whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a it_o will_v be_v as_o that_o say_n of_o our_o lord_n mar._n 9_o 46._o a_o worm_n which_o will_v not_o die_v be_v a_o good_a conscience_n of_o such_o worth_n o_o then_o strive_v to_o keep_v a_o good_a conscience_n let_v thy_o exercise_n be_v much_o in_o it_o as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v act._n 24._o 16._o both_o towards_o god_n and_o man_n first_o to_o god_n see_v thou_o do_v those_o duty_n he_o require_v of_o thou_o and_o see_v thou_o wound_v not_o thy_o conscience_n by_o thy_o neglect_n harken_v what_o thy_o conscience_n say_v and_o quench_v not_o those_o whisper_n when_o it_o tell_v thou_o thou_o must_v do_v this_o duty_n and_o forbear_v that_o evil_n i_o say_v whatever_o thou_o do_v keep_v it_o clear_a between_o god_n and_o thy_o soul_n again_o keep_v a_o good_a conscience_n towards_o god_n and_o man_n and_o to_o do_v it_o observe_v these_o thing_n 1._o that_o thou_o avoid_v carnal_a company_n and_o carnal_a speak_n for_o that_o will_v much_o offend_v thy_o conscience_n because_o thou_o shall_v make_v the_o saint_n thy_o companion_n and_o thy_o experience_n of_o god_n thy_o discourse_n 2._o be_v often_o in_o private_a speak_n to_o thy_o father_n for_o he_o belong_v to_o hear_v from_o thou_o and_o thy_o conscience_n will_v soon_o tell_v thou_o that_o thou_o have_v find_v he_o meet_v thou_o god_n be_v a_o love_a father_n and_o he_o delight_v to_o have_v his_o child_n often_o speak_v to_o he_o and_o keep_v a_o book_n of_o remembrance_n as_o in_o mal._n 3._o 16_o 17._o god_n will_v make_v up_o such_o among_o his_o jewel_n and_o as_o a_o father_n spare_v his_o son_n that_o serve_v he_o so_o will_v god_n spare_v such_o a_o soul_n 3._o have_v a_o care_n what_o thou_o do_v in_o thy_o deal_n among_o man_n keep_v a_o good_a conscience_n here_o thou_o shall_v find_v many_o idle_a word_n not_o fit_a to_o come_v out_o of_o thy_o mouth_n and_o many_o time_n thy_o conscience_n tell_v thou_o that_o it_o be_v evil_a avoid_v it_o now_o and_o set_v a_o watch_n before_o thy_o heart_n and_o lip_n that_o thou_o may_v keep_v a_o clear_a conscience_n and_o be_v sure_a that_o thou_o defraud_v no_o man_n but_o deal_v just_o or_o else_o thou_o will_v hurt_v thy_o conscience_n seek_v truth_n as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v
