from_o jesus_n christ_n if_o your_o heart_n be_v full_a of_o sin_n you_o can_v have_v no_o interest_n in_o he_o in_o joh._n 9_o 16._o some_o of_o the_o pharisee_n say_v this_o 16._o man_n be_v not_o of_o god_n because_o he_o keep_v not_o the_o sabbath_n this_o have_v be_v a_o very_a good_a argument_n have_v it_o be_v well_o apply_v have_v christ_n indeed_o not_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n if_o it_o may_v be_v true_o say_v of_o you_o that_o thou_o do_v not_o make_v conscience_n of_o keep_v of_o the_o sabbath_n or_o of_o perform_v any_o holy_a duty_n i_o can_v true_o say_v of_o you_o that_o you_o be_v not_o of_o god_n now_o then_o examine_v yourselves_o by_o this_o argument_n whether_o you_o be_v of_o god_n or_o no_o if_o you_o do_v profane_a the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o make_v no_o conscience_n of_o perform_v holy_a duty_n nor_o of_o sin_v against_o god_n this_o show_v that_o you_o be_v not_o of_o god_n that_o man_n that_o act_v sin_n with_o more_o delight_n than_o he_o perform_v holy_a duty_n have_v no_o interest_n in_o christ_n as_o in_o 1_o joh._n 5._o 18._o he_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n sin_v 18._o not_o that_o be_v he_o do_v not_o commit_v it_o with_o that_o delight_n and_o complacency_n as_o wicked_a man_n do_v but_o he_o that_o belong_v to_o god_n he_o keep_v himself_o pure_a and_o that_o wicked_a one_o touch_v he_o not_o that_o be_v not_o so_o as_o to_o make_v he_o commit_v sin_n in_o the_o former_a sense_n but_o he_o keep_v himself_o he_o will_v not_o give_v himself_o to_o commit_v sin_n with_o that_o cheerfulness_n as_o wicked_a man_n do_v and_o therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v of_o god_n and_o the_o 19_o whole_a world_n lie_v in_o wickedness_n 7._o the_o last_o character_n be_v this_o that_o man_n be_v without_o any_o interest_n in_o christ_n that_o backslide_v from_o the_o way_n of_o christ_n both_o in_o judgement_n and_o in_o practice_n beloved_n when_o a_o man_n shall_v backslide_v from_o the_o truth_n of_o christ_n in_o judgement_n and_o from_o the_o exercise_n of_o holy_a duty_n in_o practice_n when_o he_o backslide_v both_o these_o way_n he_o be_v not_o in_o jesus_n christ_n 2_o joh._n v_o 9_o whosoever_o transgress_v and_o abide_v not_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o 9_o christ_n have_v not_o god_n but_o he_o that_o abide_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n he_o have_v both_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n that_o man_n that_o sin_n both_o in_o judgement_n and_o in_o practice_n he_o be_v not_o of_o god_n but_o he_o that_o abide_v in_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n both_o in_o judgement_n and_o in_o practice_n he_o have_v both_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n oh_o therefore_o i_o beseech_v you_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n look_v about_o you_o to_o see_v whether_o you_o be_v the_o man_n that_o have_v a_o real_a actual_a interest_n in_o christ_n or_o no._n be_v you_o such_o man_n as_o be_v without_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n or_o be_v you_o without_o a_o save_a

without_o a_o hear_n ear_n and_o a_o obedient_a heart_n to_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n do_v you_o take_v great_a industry_n and_o complacency_n in_o the_o commit_n of_o sin_n than_o ever_o you_o do_v in_o the_o performance_n of_o any_o holy_a duty_n or_o do_v you_o backslide_v from_o the_o way_n of_o christ_n both_o in_o judgement_n and_o in_o practice_n if_o there_o be_v a_o concurrence_n of_o these_o seven_o character_n in_o you_o then_o conclude_v that_o you_o have_v no_o interest_n at_o all_o in_o christ_n conclude_v then_o that_o at_o this_o time_n you_o be_v without_o jesus_n christ_n

that_o be_v plunge_v into_o a_o spiritual_a delusion_n to_o say_v they_o have_v a_o interest_n in_o christ_n when_o they_o have_v not_o 2._o to_o those_o that_o say_v they_o have_v not_o a_o

that_o that_o man_n that_o say_v he_o have_v christ_n ever_o i_o may_v safe_o say_v he_o have_v christ_n never_o thou_o that_o do_v say_v that_o thou_o have_v christ_n ever_o since_o thou_o be_v

whether_o you_o will_v or_o no_o how_o come_v you_o by_o christ_n then_o do_v you_o ever_o make_v a_o powerful_a prayer_n unto_o god_n for_o he_o do_v you_o ever_o sigh_v and_o sob_v and_o cry_v mighty_o unto_o god_n for_o he_o do_v you_o ever_o see_v your_o misery_n without_o he_o and_o beg_v the_o father_n earnest_o for_o he_o for_o god_n be_v not_o prodigal_a of_o his_o son_n to_o give_v
