sin_n and_o death_n to_o keep_v ourselves_o free_a and_o pure_a from_o all_o sin_n for_o in_o many_o thing_n we_o offend_v all_o say_v st._n james_n 3.2_o 3.2_o jam._n 3.2_o but_o these_o sin_n of_o daily_a weakness_n and_o sudden_a surreption_n as_o they_o be_v usual_o small_a sin_n and_o scarce_o discernible_a so_o be_v they_o no_o obstruction_n to_o a_o clear_a conscience_n no_o more_o than_o the_o moat_n of_o the_o sunbeam_n be_v obstruction_n to_o a_o clear_a day_n as_o for_o those_o quotidian_n weakness_n and_o sin_n of_o ●aily_a infirmity_n they_o neither_o leave_v gild_n nor_o defilement_n upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o god_n child_n but_o
as_o their_o more_o foul_a sin_n be_v do_v away_o by_o particular_a act_n of_o repentance_n so_o these_o be_v do_v away_o by_o a_o general_a state_n of_o repentance_n which_o state_n the_o child_n of_o god_n be_v always_o in_o and_o there_o be_v also_o a_o constant_a outflowing_a of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n upon_o the_o soul_n to_o remove_v the_o gild_n and_o filth_n of_o those_o sin_n as_o we_o fall_v into_o they_o then_o be_v the_o conscience_n clear_a when_o all_o former_a sin_n be_v pardon_v to_o we_o we_o daily_o labour_v to_o please_v god_n though_o it_o be_v with_o manifold_a imperfection_n and_o weakness_n this_o do_v not_o hinder_v but_o that_o our_o conscience_n may_v be_v both_o pure_a and_o peaceable_a while_o we_o thus_o sincere_o strive_v to_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o all_o wilful_a and_o from_o all_o presumptuous_a sin_n our_o conscience_n be_v clear_a notwithstanding_o the_o sin_n of_o daily_a infirmity_n so_o say_v the_o psalmist_n psal_n 19.13_o keep_v back_o thy_o servant_n from_o presumptuous_a sin_n 19.13_o psal_n 19.13_o then_o shall_v i_o be_v upright_o and_o i_o shall_v be_v innocent_a from_o the_o great_a transgression_n that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n conscience_n be_v clear_a when_o it_o be_v free_a from_o all_o know_a and_o wilful_a sin_n 2._o then_o a_o man_n have_v a_o clear_a conscience_n when_o it_o be_v not_o just_o burden_a with_o the_o gild_n of_o sin_n i_o say_v not_o just_o burden_a sin_n 2._o when_o it_o be_v not_o just_o burden_v with_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n because_o sometime_o we_o may_v burden_v ourselves_o without_o cause_n when_o god_n have_v already_o forgive_v we_o many_o time_n through_o temptation_n and_o desertion_n god_n child_n reflect_v back_o upon_o their_o old_a sin_n with_o new_a trouble_n and_o rip_v up_o their_o old_a wound_n and_o make_v they_o bleed_v afresh_o they_o remember_v against_o themselves_o what_o god_n have_v forget_v and_o with_o great_a terror_n accuse_v and_o condemn_v themselves_o for_o what_o god_n have_v already_o remit_v to_o they_o now_o here_o i_o shall_v lay_v down_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o every_o quiet_a conscience_n be_v not_o a_o clear_a conscience_n second_o that_o every_o trouble_a conscience_n be_v not_o a_o evil_a conscience_n first_o conscience_n 1._o every_o quiet_a conscience_n be_v not_o a_o clear_a conscience_n every_o quiet_a conscience_n be_v not_o a_o clear_a conscience_n some_o be_v lull_v asleep_a in_o security_n and_o their_o conscience_n be_v quiet_a mere_o because_o they_o be_v insensible_a it_o may_v be_v they_o have_v so_o harrassed_a and_o waste_v their_o conscience_n by_o dreadful_a sin_n so_o often_o mortal_o wound_v they_o that_o now_o they_o have_v not_o strength_n enough_o to_o become_v quarrelsome_a and_o troublesome_a and_o this_o they_o call_v peace_n indeed_o it_o be_v such_o a_o peace_n as_o galgathus_n reproach_n the_o roman_n with_o in_o tacitus_n when_o they_o have_v lay_v all_o waist_n than_o they_o call_v it_o peace_n so_o these_o sinner_n think_v they_o have_v good_a peaceable_a conscience_n because_o they_o do_v not_o menace_v torment_n and_o worry_v they_o and_o alas_o how_o can_v they_o their_o conscience_n be_v murder_v there_o be_v no_o sense_n nor_o life_n leave_v in_o they_o this_o be_v no_o peace_n but_o a_o mere_a solitude_n and_o

next_o moment_n after_o death_n these_o peaceable_a conscience_n will_v be_v startle_v out_o of_o their_o sleep_n and_o with_o fearful_a screeche_n fly_v in_o their_o face_n and_o roar_v so_o loud_o that_o heaven_n and_o hell_n shall_v hear_v they_o as_o in_o still_a wether_n many_o time_n matter_n be_v gather_v for_o a_o storm_n so_o while_o conscience_n seem_v so_o still_o and_o quiet_a it_o be_v only_o gather_v matter_n for_o a_o tempest_n that_o will_v one_o day_n pour_v upon_o your_o head_n and_o o_o how_o grievous_a will_v it_o be_v when_o those_o conscience_n that_o never_o give_v they_o a_o ill_a word_n before_o shall_v on_o a_o sudden_a drag_v they_o before_o the_o tribunal_n of_o god_n and_o there_o bitter_o accuse_v they_o of_o those_o horrid_a sin_n that_o once_o they_o seem_v to_o take_v no_o notice_n of_o and_o call_v for_o the_o severe_a execution_n of_o divine_a wrath_n and_o vengeance_n upon_o they_o and_o possible_o many_o that_o speak_v of_o the_o peace_n of_o their_o conscience_n do_v not_o find_v it_o so_o neither_o they_o be_v as_o far_o from_o a_o peaceable_a conscience_n as_o they_o be_v from_o a_o rave_v and_o a_o rage_a conscience_n a_o rave_a conscience_n soon_o discover_v itself_o in_o hellish_a despair_n but_o there_o be_v many_o who_o conscience_n do_v not_o rave_v and_o yet_o be_v never_o quiet_a they_o give_v they_o many_o a_o

for_o answer_v unto_o this_o first_o it_o may_v be_v know_v when_o a_o man_n conscience_n be_v trouble_v from_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n remain_v upon_o it_o by_o consider_v the_o effect_n of_o this_o
