conscience_n condemn_v thy_o person_n i_o confess_v thou_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o believe_v mercy_n for_o thyself_o if_o thy_o conscience_n tell_v thou_o to_o the_o face_n of_o god_n thou_o be_v in_o a_o foul_a sinful_a course_n and_o have_v be_v call_v upon_o by_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o word_n and_o its_o voice_n to_o come_v out_o of_o it_o and_o thou_o do_v not_o leave_v it_o nay_o be_v resolve_v to_o pursue_v it_o and_o to_o insist_v on_o it_o now_o god_n be_v great_a than_o thy_o conscience_n and_o will_v assure_o condemn_v thou_o 2._o if_o conscience_n condemn_v thy_o action_n only_o than_o thou_o may_v notwithstanding_o that_o condemnation_n believe_v on_o mercy_n my_o meaning_n be_v this_o though_o the_o conscience_n by_o its_o discerm_n light_a represent_v unto_o thou_o much_o sinfulness_n in_o thy_o nature_n and_o former_a course_n and_o though_o it_o do_v condemn_v these_o to_o be_v vile_a and_o most_o fit_a to_o be_v crucify_v abhor_a and_o forsake_v this_o condemnation_n hinder_v not_o the_o right_a of_o believe_v nay_o no_o man_n indeed_o shall_v believe_v unless_o his_o conscience_n do_v condemn_v sin_n in_o he_o not_o only_o show_v he_o his_o sin_n but_o assure_v he_o that_o they_o be_v evil_a and_o unworthy_a his_o love_n nay_o most_o worthy_a of_o his_o detestation_n and_o mortification_n 2._o second_o you_o must_v distinguish_v of_o time_n when_o conscience_n do_v condemn_v a_o man_n there_o be_v two_o time_n of_o a_o christian_n 1._o some_o be_v open_a and_o free_a he_o be_v himself_o and_o beside_o that_o he_o hear_v both_o party_n as_o well_o what_o be_v for_o himself_o as_o what_o be_v against_o himself_o yea_o and_o weigh_v matter_n in_o controversy_n in_o the_o right_a balance_n of_o god_n sanctuary_n not_o in_o satan_n balance_n of_o cunning_a suggestion_n will_v conscience_n condemn_v thy_o person_n at_o such_o a_o time_n and_o under_o such_o circumstance_n nay_o will_v not_o the_o word_n of_o god_n acquit_v thou_o at_o such_o a_o time_n against_o all_o fear_n for_o the_o substance_n and_o reality_n of_o a_o pious_a condition_n 2._o some_o be_v cloud_v &_o darken_v either_o with_o melancholy_n or_o affliction_n or_o temptation_n wherein_o the_o christian_a see_v his_o face_n through_o a_o false_a glass_n just_a as_o a_o title_n be_v make_v by_o a_o deceitful_a &_o cunning_a lawyer_n not_o according_a to_o truth_n not_o all_o of_o it_o but_o some_o of_o it_o what_o be_v pass_v heretofore_o for_o action_n and_o affection_n or_o what_o have_v fall_v out_o not_o in_o the_o course_n of_o life_n since_o a_o man_n conversion_n but_o only_o in_o case_n of_o surprisal_n and_o captivity_n now_o perhaps_o conscience_n may_v condemn_v thou_o but_o this_o be_v a_o illegal_a sentence_n it_o be_v a_o corrupt_a judgement_n and_o be_v reversible_a god_n will_v not_o judge_v of_o thou_o as_o conscience_n in_o such_o a_o case_n do_v nay_o he_o will_v repeal_v it_o and_o disannul_v it_o 4._o a_o four_o cause_n of_o doubt_n be_v a_o fear_n lest_o a_o man_n have_v sin_v that_o great_a sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o the_o main_a inducement_n to_o credit_v this_o be_v a_o sin_v against_o clear_a knowledge_n which_o be_v one_o ingredient_n in_o that_o sin_n now_o this_o be_v my_o condition_n say_v a_o trouble_a soul_n i_o have_v not_o only_o sin_v but_o sin_v against_o light_n shine_v in_o the_o ministry_n and_o work_v on_o my_o conscience_n therefore_o i_o may_v rather_o conclude_v then_o question_v it_o mercy_n belong_v not_o to_o i_o to_o help_v a_o conscience_n thus_o sol._n enthral_a i_o will_v wish_v that_o such_o a_o person_n will_v 1._o be_v inform_v 2._o be_v direct_v 1._o the_o information_n which_o i_o will_v commend_v in_o this_o case_n be_v fourfold_a first_o that_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v not_o any_o sin_n which_o a_o man_n commit_v through_o ignorance_n whatsoever_o the_o sin_n or_o sin_n have_v be_v whereof_o the_o party_n stand_v guilty_a whether_o against_o the_o law_n or_o against_o the_o gospel_n suppose_v it_o be_v one_o or_o many_o heinous_a sin_n yet_o if_o the_o person_n be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o blindness_n and_o ignorance_n if_o there_o be_v a_o nescience_n of_o the_o fact_n if_o he_o know_v not_o what_o he_o do_v this_o ignorance_n privilege_v the_o sinning_n thus_o far_o that_o therefore_o they_o be_v not_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n second_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v not_o any_o sin_n against_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v elicit_v and_o act_v through_o a_o misbelief_n or_o misperswasion_n if_o the_o sin_n be_v a_o slight_v of_o evangelicall_a doctrine_n nay_o a_o persecute_v of_o they_o and_o of_o the_o professor_n of_o they_o yet_o if_o these_o act_n of_o opposition_n depend_v total_o on_o error_n in_o the_o judgement_n on_o a_o judgement_n mispersuaded_n i_o rather_o believe_v they_o not_o to_o be_v truth_n rather_o think_v those_o way_n to_o be_v false_a way_n i_o say_v this_o misbelief_n preserve_v such_o sinning_n yet_o from_o be_v sin_n against_o the_o holy_a 13._o 1_o tim._n 1._o 13._o ghost_n because_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o

the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o former_a be_v true_a but_o the_o latter_a be_v not_o for_o many_o a_o convert_a man_n sin_v against_o knowledge_n who_o yet_o never_o sin_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o two_o case_n a_o man_n sin_v against_o knowledge_n do_v not_o yet_o sin_v that_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n one_o be_v the_o case_n of_o a_o strong_a and_o violent_a temptation_n another_o be_v the_o case_n of_o a_o sudden_a and_o turbulent_a passion_n it_o be_v the_o same_o with_o peter_n case_n against_o his_o knowledge_n deny_v and_o forswear_v his_o master_n if_o paul_n before_o his_o conversion_n have_v have_v peter_n knowledge_n he_o have_v sin_v this_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o if_o peter_n in_o his_o denial_n have_v have_v paul_n malice_n join_v with_o his_o knowledge_n he_o have_v also_o sin_v that_o sin_n but_o the_o misbelief_n of_o the_o one_o before_o his_o conversion_n and_o the_o infirmity_n of_o the_o other_o after_o it_o preserve_v from_o this_o sin_n error_n mislead_v the_o one_o and_o sudden_a fear_n surprise_v the_o other_o four_o there_o be_v three_o horrible_a sinning_n which_o do_v attend_v that_o sin_n

sin_n how_o to_o know_v whether_o satan_n revive_v former_a sin_n your_o sin_n be_v revive_v by_o satan_n from_o two_o effect_n 1._o one_o be_v from_o the_o desperate_a issue_n of_o their_o revive_n you_o may_v know_v whether_o a_o man_n be_v a_o friend_n or_o a_o malicious_a enemy_n who_o do_v revive_v the_o error_n and_o fail_n among_o man_n a_o friend_n he_o revive_v they_o that_o you_o may_v be_v better_v either_o to_o reform_v if_o the_o thing_n be_v evil_a or_o to_o be_v circumspect_a whether_o the_o thing_n be_v true_a or_o false_a but_o the_o malicious_a enemy_n he_o revive_v they_o only_o to_o make_v you_o odious_a and_o loathsome_a now_o satan_n revive_v of_o former_a sin_n be_v ever_o odious_a it_o be_v of_o evil_a for_o evil_a his_o end_n be_v desperate_a what_o be_v that_o that_o be_v that_o we_o may_v give_v up_o all_o possible_a interest_n in_o mercy_n all_o hope_n of_o pardon_n and_o acceptance_n whence_o it_o be_v where_o he_o revive_v sin_n former_a sin_n he_o bend_v the_o heart_n to_o some_o present_a mischief_n to_o renounce_v all_o hope_n of_o mercy_n and_o to_o selfe-murder_n and_o such_o desperate_a issue_n both_o which_o be_v against_o the_o end_n of_o god_n and_o the_o desire_n of_o a_o holy_a heart_n which_o upon_o their_o revive_n of_o sin_n do_v ever_o propose_v mercy_n and_o betterment_n unto_o the_o soul_n 2._o another_o be_v from_o the_o filthy_a issue_n which_o be_v this_o he_o revive_v the_o sting_n of_o sin_n that_o he_o may_v make_v we_o more_o bold_a and_o mad_a in_o sin_v he_o revive_v sin_n unto_o sin_n there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o mercy_n of_o recovery_n therefore_o as_o good_a to_o go_v on_o as_o not_o whence_o he_o incline_v the_o heart_n to_o a_o leap_v into_o the_o water_n to_o a_o wallow_n in_o the_o mire_n to_o a_o greediness_n in_o the_o course_n of_o sin_v which_o he_o do_v the_o more_o easy_o win_v from_o the_o evil_a heart_n of_o evil_a man_n by_o those_o temporary_a allayment_n and_o cessation_n of_o sting_a guilt_n which_o they_o observe_v in_o themselves_o by_o their_o furiousness_n constant_a and_o harden_v revolution_n or_o exercise_n of_o the_o same_o sin_n so_o that_o if_o you_o who_o heart_n be_v tender_a have_v be_v humble_v for_o former_a sin_n and_o be_v so_o upright_o as_o still_o to_o hate_v they_o if_o former_a g●●ilts_n be_v revive_v with_o a_o inclination_n either_o to_o give_v up_o all_o mercy_n or_o to_o give_v over_o yourselves_o now_o with_o licentiousness_n to_o the_o same_o or_o other_o sin_n here_o be_v satan_n in_o this_o satan_n now_o revive_v thy_o guilt_n and_o now_o another_o course_n be_v to_o be_v take_v 2._o the_o course_n than_o be_v this_o and_o i_o beseech_v you_o mark_v it_o 1._o strengthen_v thy_o heart_n with_o more_o detestation_n of_o the_o sin_n the_o more_o he_o revive_v the_o guilty_a accusation_n the_o more_o do_v thou_o revive_v thy_o upright_a detestation_n and_o as_o he_o pour_v out_o malice_n to_o disturb_v thy_o conscience_n so_o do_v thou_o pour_v out_o revenge_n to_o sub_fw-la due_n the_o ground_n of_o it_o and_o if_o he_o vex_v thou_o do_v thou_o go_v and_o vex_v thy_o sin_n 2._o believe_v not_o a_o malicious_a so_o thy_o case_n be_v not_o wicked_a because_o a_o wicked_a devil_n say_v so_o accuser_n satan_n do_v oft_o time_n serve_v a_o writ_n in_o the_o king_n name_n without_o the_o king_n seal_n he_o forgive_v where_o god_n do_v not_o and_o he_o bind_v where_o god_n have_v release_v and_o this_o know_v it_o be_v god_n that_o justifi_v who_o then_o shall_v condemn_v if_o the_o king_n himself_o have_v pardon_v thou_o how_o unjust_a be_v it_o for_o the_o under-officer_n to_o arrest_v and_o challenge_v 3._o but_o in_o case_n of_o frequent_a inquietation_n when_o satan_n will_v not_o be_v answer_v but_o still_o charge_v now_o make_v thy_o appeal_n appeal_v the_o christian_a must_v appeal_v from_o he_o to_o god_n and_o if_o he_o charge_v thou_o in_o the_o court_n of_o conscience_n remove_v it_o wise_o to_o the_o high_a court_n of_o heaven_n let_v god_n once_o more_o have_v the_o hear_n and_o the_o decide_n and_o now_o satan_n what_o have_v thou_o to_o say_v unto_o i_o thou_o have_v sin_v heretofore_o say_v satan_n and_o thy_o judge_n do_v know_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o indictment_n i_o have_v satan_n i_o confess_v it_o and_o my_o god_n do_v know_v the_o truth_n of_o my_o sorrow_n and_o repentance_n lord_n do_v thou_o not_o know_v my_o tear_n my_o returning_n my_o judge_n of_o myself_o my_o feel_n of_o mercy_n &_o grace_n lord_n thou_o have_v know_v it_o and_o have_v know_v my_o soul_n with_o thy_o pardon_v and_o accept_v mercy_n 4._o rest_v the_o soul_n and_o fasten_v it_o unto_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n which_o will_v always_o cry_v down_o the_o testimony_n and_o clamour_n of_o guilt_n nothing_o but_o that_o will_v satisfy_v god_n and_o vanquish_v satan_n and_o then_o by_o faith_n not_o only_o lay_v hand_n on_o mercy_n but_o hold_v out_o the_o stability_n of_o mercy_n the_o king_n pardon_n will_v serve_v twenty_o year_n hence_o in_o case_n of_o suit_n satan_n may_v often_o trouble_v &_o question_n but_o god_n accept_v of_o thou_o into_o mercy_n will_v i_o be_o sure_a it_o may_v quiet_a and_o uphold_v thou_o 14._o the_o last_o spring_n of_o doubt_n be_v silence_n in_o the_o conscience_n long_a silence_n there_o for_o the_o close_n of_o this_o spring_n
