blood_n can_v attest_v the_o evil_n and_o mischief_n of_o war_n much_o more_o pathetical_o than_o word_n can_v express_v how_o sweet_a and_o acceptable_a will_v peace_n a_o word_n always_o sound_v sweet_o be_v to_o they_o now_o the_o apostle_n st._n james_n have_v give_v we_o a_o brief_a but_o unquestionable_o true_a account_n of_o the_o real_a cause_n of_o war_n and_o fight_n jam._n 4.1_o from_o whence_o come_v war_n and_o fight_n among_o you_o come_v they_o not_o hence_o even_o of_o your_o lust_n that_o war_n in_o your_o member_n from_o these_o sinful_a cause_n have_v all_o the_o disorder_n and_o jar_n in_o kingdom_n and_o private_a society_n have_v their_o real_a i_o speak_v not_o of_o their_o pretend_v original_a how_o impetuous_a be_v the_o lust_n of_o turbulent_a spirit_n like_o the_o rage_a wave_n of_o the_o sea_n they_o be_v still_o in_o motion_n cast_v forth_o filth_n and_o dirt_n ambition_n be_v so_o unquiet_a and_o restless_a a_o passion_n that_o no_o man_n be_v ignorant_a what_o desolation_n it_o have_v wrought_v in_o the_o earth_n how_o many_o famous_a kingdom_n have_v it_o ruin_v and_o destroy_v what_o inquietude_n and_o disorder_n be_v occasion_v by_o discontentment_n all_o these_o be_v thing_n so_o evident_a that_o i_o need_v not_o enlarge_v upon_o they_o but_o how_o repugnant_a be_v these_o vice_n to_o holiness_n and_o can_v it_o be_v rational_o imagine_v that_o their_o genuine_a and_o proper_a effect_n can_v be_v more_o reconcilable_a with_o it_o i_o confess_v religion_n have_v too_o frequent_o be_v pretend_v as_o a_o cloak_n to_o dover_v the_o great_a villainy_n confusion_n and_o rebellion_n but_o sure_o i_o be_o nothing_o imaginable_a contain_v a_o great_a contradiction_n than_o to_o say_v these_o impiety_n have_v a_o warrant_n from_o the_o sacred_a law_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o combination_n of_o which_o be_v the_o rule_n of_o holiness_n as_o i_o have_v former_o explain_v be_v not_o christ_n call_v the_o prince_n of_o peace_n and_o the_o gospel_n the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n and_o it_o be_v certain_a if_o man_n will_v be_v rule_v by_o the_o law_n of_o so_o peaceable_a a_o prince_n they_o shall_v be_v of_o a_o calm_a and_o quiet_a spirit_n then_o shall_v we_o indeed_o see_v righteousness_n and_o peace_n kiss_v each_o other_o when_o ever_o therefore_o we_o read_v in_o ancient_a prophecy_n of_o the_o great_a peace_n that_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o messiahs_n reign_n we_o must_v thereby_o understand_v that_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o its_o precept_n be_v such_o that_o if_o man_n will_v conform_v their_o life_n to_o they_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o universal_a peace_n how_o strict_o be_v all_o the_o cause_n of_o envy_n contention_n ambition_n and_o rebellion_n prohibit_v and_o sure_o if_o these_o cause_n be_v remove_v their_o effect_n shall_v have_v no_o place_n then_o shall_v the_o bow_n be_v break_v and_o the_o spear_n cut_v in_o sunder_o sword_n shall_v be_v turn_v into_o

this_o it_o be_v apparent_a how_o much_o holiness_n conduce_v to_o the_o establishment_n of_o public_a peace_n but_o that_o which_o i_o will_v more_o especial_o take_v notice_n of_o be_v the_o internal_a serenity_n and_o calmness_n of_o conscience_n which_o be_v the_o only_a effect_n of_o holiness_n and_o true_o upon_o this_o account_n there_o be_v no_o peace_n to_o the_o wicked_a i_o may_v here_o appeal_v to_o every_o man_n breast_n whether_o holiness_n do_v not_o calm_a and_o quiet_a the_o conscience_n of_o man_n whileas_o a_o natural_a horror_n result_v from_o the_o commission_n of_o vice_n more_o heavy_a than_o the_o severe_a lash_n ever_o inflict_v by_o tityus_n or_o rhadamanthus_n what_o unspeakable_a peace_n and_o ease_n do_v attend_v holiness_n of_o life_n there_o be_v no_o jar_n nor_o contention_n no_o check_n of_o conscience_n nor_o wound_n of_o spirit_n to_o disturb_v the_o inward_a repose_n of_o the_o righteous_a but_o that_o remorse_n that_o result_v from_o the_o
