no_o man_n shall_v have_v a_o reward_n of_o glory_n a._n there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o justification_n and_o glorification_n a_o man_n must_v be_v justify_v and_o sanctify_v before_o he_o can_v perform_v any_o thing_n which_o god_n accept_v now_o justification_n be_v by_o christ_n but_o glorification_n by_o work_n there_o be_v a_o twofold_a obedience_n legal_a and_o evangelicall_n legal_o not_o man_n can_v obey_v god_n that_o be_v in_o every_o point_n we_o can_v serve_v he_o so_o absolute_o and_o exact_o as_o the_o law_n require_v q._n what_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o legal_a and_o evangelicall_n obedience_n ans_fw-fr 1._o the_o law_n lay_v hold_v on_o a_o man_n and_o bind_v he_o to_o perfect_a and_o personal_a obedience_n 2._o if_o a_o man_n can_v obey_v the_o law_n he_o may_v merit_v salvation_n have_v adam_n but_o obey_v the_o lord_n in_o every_o point_n as_o the_o law_n require_v he_o may_v have_v challenge_v heaven_n for_o that_o say_v do_v and_o live_v but_o now_o the_o gospel_n 1._o take_v away_o the_o rigour_n of_o the_o law_n 2._o it_o do_v not_o require_v exact_a obedience_n but_o sincerity_n the_o will_n and_o endeavour_n which_o be_v take_v for_o the_o deed_n 3_o a_o christian_n obey_v god_n in_o his_o surety_n 4._o by_o way_n of_o thankfulness_n not_o to_o merit_v he_o that_o merit_n must_v bring_v something_o in_o himself_o but_o we_o have_v nothing_o 1._o this_o be_v a_o ground_n of_o exceed_a comfort_n to_o god_n people_n though_o their_o ability_n be_v not_o great_a yet_o if_o they_o be_v sincere_a in_o heart_n they_o may_v be_v comfort_v it_o matter_n not_o how_o the_o world_n judge_v we_o we_o stand_v not_o nor_o fall_v to_o man_n but_o to_o god_n and_o therefore_o david_n be_v slander_v by_o his_o malicious_a enemy_n say_v judge_v i_o according_a to_o my_o righteousness_n he_o be_v slander_v as_o a_o hypocrite_n yet_o he_o desire_v god_n that_o he_o will_v look_v upon_o he_o according_a to_o the_o sincerity_n of_o his_o heart_n this_o comfort_v hezekiah_n upon_o his_o deathbed_n remember_v say_v he_o o_o lord_n how_o i_o have_v walk_v before_o thou_o with_o a_o upright_a heart_n 2._o it_o serve_v for_o terror_n to_o all_o dissembler_n see_v god_n will_v judge_v they_o according_a to_o their_o work_n there_o be_v no_o trick_n to_o be_v use_v then_o here_o they_o labour_v to_o blear_v the_o eye_n of_o man_n and_o to_o carry_v fair_a weather_n before_o they_o that_o none_o can_v say_v black_a be_v their_o eye_n but_o god_n sha●l_v unbowell_v all_o and_o say_v this_o be_v the_o man_n who_o have_v such_o cunning_a devise_n that_o man_n may_v not_o take_v notice_n of_o he_o that_o have_v secret_a corner_n to_o commit_v sin_n in_o etc._n etc._n 3._o it_o shall_v teach_v we_o to_o abound_v in_o holy_a duty_n because_o we_o shall_v be_v judge_v by_o they_o set_v somewhat_o every_o day_n upon_o the_o score_n not_o to_o labour_v for_o profit_n but_o to_o abound_v in_o godliness_n it_o be_v better_a to_o abound_v in_o duty_n then_o commodity_n for_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v reward_v not_o for_o that_o a_o man_n say_v but_o for_o that_o which_o a_o man_n have_v do_v in_o the_o flesh_n labour_v then_o to_o abound_v in_o piety_n that_o so_o your_o reward_n may_v be_v great_a only_o look_v you_o do_v it_o upright_o consider_v god_n be_v thy_o judge_n ob._n but_o it_o be_v say_v the_o father_n judge_v no_o man_n but_o have_v commit_v all_o judgement_n to_o the_o son_n a._n god_n do_v put_v it_o over_o to_o christ_n and_o give_v he_o power_n to_o judge_v the_o world_n as_o the_o king_n be_v say_v to_o judge_v when_o other_o receive_v authority_n from_o he_o to_o do_v it_o q._n why_o shall_v christ_n judge_v all_o man_n a._n that_o christ_n glory_n may_v be_v know_v here_o he_o be_v judge_v but_o then_o he_o shall_v judge_v which_o be_v a_o ground_n of_o much_o comfort_n to_o god_n servant_n see_v christ_n that_o be_v their_o saviour_n shall_v be_v their_o judge_n q._n how_o shall_v god_n proceed_n be_v a._n by_o book_n as_o john_n say_v rev._n 20.12_o i_o see_v the_o book_n open_v there_o be_v two_o book_n the_o book_n of_o conscience_n and_o the_o book_n of_o god_n prescience_n the_o conscience_n it_o be_v a_o thousand_o witness_n &_o god_n be_v ten_o thousand_o so_o then_o there_o be_v eleven_o thousand_o witness_n against_o a_o man_n his_o conscience_n will_v say_v be_v you_o a_o professor_n and_o will_v you_o do_v thus_o &_o thus_o and_o if_o our_o conscience_n accuse_v we_o god_n be_v great_a than_o our_o conscience_n he_o will_v set_v our_o sin_n in_o order_n before_o we_o and_o say_v look_v here_o do_v you_o not_o see_v your_o pride_n and_o filthiness_n god_n will_v write_v our_o sin_n in_o the_o palm_n of_o our_o hand_n that_o we_o may_v take_v notice_n of_o they_o he_o will_v discoverall_a that_o ever_o we_o do_v to_o we_o now_o come_v we_o to_o the_o sentence_n itself_o 1._o upon_o the_o wicked_a depart_v from_o i_o you_o curse_v into_o everlasting_a fire_n with_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o angel_n herein_o we_o must_v consider_v 2_o thing_n 1._o the_o punishment_n of_o loss_n 2._o the_o punishment_n of_o sense_n the_o punishment_n of_o loss_n depart_v from_o i_o wicked_a man_n must_v be_v banish_v from_o god_n presence_n ob._n but_o david_n say_v ps_n 139._o if_o i_o go_v into_o heaven_n thou_o be_v there_o if_o i_o go_v down_o into_o the_o deep_a thou_o be_v there_o how_o then_o be_v the_o wicked_a separate_v from_o god_n ans_fw-fr they_o can_v depart_v from_o the_o presence_n of_o his_o anger_n and_o power_n but_o they_o neither_o find_v nor_o feel_v the_o work_n of_o any_o of_o god_n comfortable_a attribute_n god_n be_v merciful_a but_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o they_o he_o that_o have_v not_o god_n can_v have_v any_o rest_n who_o be_v it_o that_o give_v we_o rest_v by_o our_o sleep_n but_o god_n in_o sleep_n so_o who_o be_v it_o that_o strengthen_v we_o by_o meat_n but_o god_n in_o meat_n etc._n etc._n but_o now_o they_o want_v god_n must_v needs_o be_v miserable_a withal_o they_o shall_v be_v utter_o out_o of_o hope_n to_o attain_v happiness_n and_o life_n there_o shall_v be_v salvation_n but_o none_o for_o they_o they_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o great_a misery_n of_o the_o damn_a in_o hell_n that_o they_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n 2._o the_o punishment_n of_o soul_n that_o be_v they_o must_v be_v cast_v into_o hell_n fire_n which_o be_v set_v forth_o by_o two_o thing_n 1._o the_o worm_n shall_v never_o die_v 2._o the_o fire_n never_o go_v out_o 1._o the_o worm_n be_v the_o sting_n of_o conscience_n that_o be_v compare_v to_o a_o worm_n for_o as_o a_o worm_n gnaw_v a_o man_n continual_o so_o conscience_n be_v continual_o gnaw_v a_o man_n heart_n 2._o they_o shall_v be_v cast_v into_o hell_n fire_n that_o be_v they_o shall_v be_v fill_v with_o the_o vengeance_n of_o god_n they_o have_v here_o but_o a_o drop_n of_o it_o as_o it_o be_v if_o we_o consider_v all_o the_o punishment_n that_o all_o the_o man_n of_o the_o world_n have_v have_v and_o suffer_v they_o be_v nothing_o to_o this_o but_o as_o a_o flea-biting_n in_o comparison_n of_o this_o that_o which_o be_v the_o worst_a their_o wickedness_n shall_v increase_v daily_o though_o they_o be_v full_a of_o god_n vengeance_n yet_o their_o sin_n shall_v increase_v it_o still_o q._n but_o if_o the_o wicked_a be_v full_a of_o god_n vengeance_n how_o can_v their_o punishment_n be_v increase_v a._n they_o shall_v every_o day_n be_v make_v more_o capable_a of_o bear_v punishment_n as_o a_o glass_n though_o it_o be_v full_a yet_o if_o it_o be_v make_v big_a it_o will_v hold_v more_o so_o though_o a_o man_n be_v full_a of_o misery_n yet_o by_o sin_n he_o shall_v be_v make_v capable_a to_o suffer_v more_o and_o more_o it_o shall_v be_v eternal_a there_o shall_v be_v no_o end_n of_o their_o misery_n for_o their_o punishment_n shall_v increase_v daily_o so_o that_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v a_o devil_n incarnate_a as_o it_o be_v finis_fw-la
