immortal_a soul_n and_o thy_o comfortable_a appearance_n at_o the_o great_a day_n of_o christ_n i_o have_v the_o thing_n which_o i_o intend_v and_o desire_v the_o lord_n open_v thy_o heart_n and_o

do_v in_o his_o body_n according_a to_o that_o he_o have_v do_v whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o bad_a know_v therefore_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o lord_n we_o persuade_v man_n it_o be_v not_o unlikely_a that_o some_o of_o those_o wit_n that_o be_v take_v more_o with_o thing_n new_a then_o with_o thing_n necessary_a will_v marvel_v that_o i_o choose_v so_o common_a a_o subject_n and_o tell_v i_o that_o they_o all_o know_v this_o already_o but_o i_o do_v it_o purposely_o upon_o these_o follow_a consideration_n 1._o because_o i_o well_o know_v that_o it_o be_v these_o common_a

these_o common_a truth_n save_o that_o think_v they_o know_v they_o 3._o because_o there_o be_v several_a degree_n of_o know_v the_o same_o truth_n and_o the_o best_a be_v imperfect_a in_o degree_n the_o principal_a growth_n in_o knowledge_n that_o we_o shall_v look_v after_o be_v not_o to_o know_v more_o matter_n than_o we_o kne●_n before_o but_o to_o know_v that_o better_a and_o with_o a_o clear_a light_n and_o firm_a apprehension_n which_o we_o dark_o and_o slight_o know_v before_o you_o may_v more_o safe_o be_v without_o any_o knowledge_n at_o all_o of_o many_o low_a truth_n then_o without_o some_o further_a degree_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o those_o which_o you_o already_o know_v 4._o beside_o it_o be_v know_v by_o sad_a experience_n that_o many_o perish_v who_o know_v the_o truth_n for_o want_v of_o the_o consideration_n of_o it_o and_o make_v use_n of_o what_o they_o know_v and_o so_o their_o knowledge_n do_v but_o condemn_v they_o we_o have_v as_o much_o need_v therefore_o to_o teach_v and_o help_v you_o to_o get_v these_o truth_n which_o you_o know_v into_o your_o heart_n and_o life_n as_o to_o tell_v you_o more_o 5._o and_o indeed_o it_o be_v the_o impression_n of_o these_o great_a and_o master-truth_n wherein_o the_o vital_n and_o essential_n of_o god_n image_n upon_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n do_v consist_v and_o it_o be_v these_o truth_n that_o be_v the_o very_a instrument_n of_o the_o great_a work_n that_o be_v to_o be_v do_v upon_o the_o heart_n by_o the_o spirit_n and_o ourselves_o in_o the_o right_a use_n of_o these_o it_o be_v that_o the_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o skill_n and_o holy_a wisdom_n of_o a_o christian_n do_v consist_v and_o in_o the_o diligent_a and_o constant_a use_n of_o these_o lie_v the_o life_n and_o trade_n of_o christianity_n there_o be_v nothing_o amiss_o in_o man_n heart_n or_o life_n but_o it_o be_v for_o want_v of_o sound_n know_v and_o believe_v or_o well_o use_v these_o fundamental_n 6._o and_o moreover_o methinks_v in_o this_o choice_n of_o my_o subject_n i_o may_v expect_v this_o advantage_n with_o the_o hearer_n that_o i_o may_v spare_v that_o labour_n that_o else_o will_v be_v necessary_a for_o the_o proof_n of_o my_o doctrine_n and_o that_o i_o may_v also_o have_v easy_a access_n to_o your_o heart_n and_o have_v a_o full_a stroke_n at_o they_o and_o with_o less_o resistance_n if_o i_o come_v to_o tell_v you_o of_o any_o thing_n not_o common_a i_o know_v not_o how_o far_o i_o may_v expect_v belief_n from_o you_o you_o may_v say_v these_o thing_n be_v uncertain_a to_o we_o or_o all_o man_n be_v not_o of_o this_o mind_n but_o when_o every_o hearer_n confess_v the_o truth_n of_o my_o doctrine_n and_o no_o man_n can_v deny_v it_o without_o deny_v christianity_n itself_o i_o hope_v i_o may_v expect_v that_o your_o heart_n shall_v the_o soon_o receive_v the_o impression_n of_o this_o doctrine_n and_o the_o soon_o yield_v to_o the_o duty_n
