sort_n not_o unto_o death_n and_o damnation_n but_o unto_o life_n and_o salvation_n a_o repentance_n never_o to_o be_v repent_v of_o and_o the_o same_o christian_n will_v tell_v you_o that_o he_o be_v never_o so_o sad_a as_o when_o he_o feel_v his_o heart_n hard_a and_o unrelenting_a so_o that_o upon_o the_o whole_a this_o objection_n against_o the_o yoke_n as_o if_o it_o be_v not_o good_a to_o bear_v because_o repentance_n be_v require_v in_o it_o which_o you_o have_v think_v to_o be_v so_o sour_a and_o unpleasant_a you_o see_v it_o proceed_v from_o a_o mere_a palpable_a mistake_n and_o

will_v have_v ask_v of_o he_o and_o he_o will_v have_v give_v thou_o live_a water_n so_o if_o thou_o know_v the_o sweetness_n of_o gospel-repentance_n thou_o will_v not_o endure_v to_o live_v a_o

2._o thus_o have_v clear_v up_o this_o that_o the_o most_o difficult_a part_n of_o christ_n yoke_n viz._n repentance_n itself_o which_o usual_o through_o satan_n cunning_a and_o malice_n be_v

be_v most_o liable_a to_o objection_n it_o may_v shorten_v my_o work_n as_o to_o what_o remain_v this_o fort_n of_o the_o jebusite_n be_v win_v we_o may_v conclude_v all_o will_v yield_v if_o the_o most_o exceptionable_a part_n of_o christ_n yoke_n will_v pass_v muster_n we_o need_v not_o question_v the_o rest_n thus_o i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o first_o head_n of_o argument_n to_o prove_v the_o truth_n treat_v on_o viz._n that_o it_o be_v good_a in_o a_o absolute_a sense_n to_o bear_v christ_n yoke_n now_o that_o it_o be_v so_o especial_o in_o time_n of_o youth_n i_o shall_v reserve_v

the_o doctrine_n that_o to_o bear_v the_o yoke_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o summary_n of_o all_o good_a viz._n 2._o that_o it_o be_v so_o relative_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o effect_n and_o

youth_n do_v respect_n this_o present_a life_n and_o other_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v for_o what_o the_o apostle_n say_v of_o godliness_n i_o may_v say_v of_o bear_v the_o yoke_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o sense_n though_o different_a in_o sound_n it_o be_v profitable_a for_o all_o thing_n have_v the_o promise_n of_o the_o life_n that_o now_o be_v and_o that_o which_o

charge_n of_o my_o former_a vileness_n conscience_n sprinkle_v with_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n may_v discharge_v all_o for_o christ_n yoke_n and_o blood_n go_v together_o before_o a_o man_n come_v

all_o the_o dead_a weight_n in_o the_o world_n can_v be_v to_o thy_o body_n a_o giant_n that_o can_v bear_v a_o great_a stone_n on_o his_o back_n can_v endure_v a_o little_a one_o in_o his_o bladder_n
