call_v conscientia_fw-la quasi_fw-la cum_fw-la scientiâ_fw-la or_o as_o some_o think_v quasicordis_fw-la scientia_fw-la as_o if_o you_o shall_v say_v with_o science_n and_o knowledge_n or_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o heart_n now_o true_a knowledge_n what_o please_v or_o displease_v god_n must_v needs_o be_v out_o of_o his_o word_n because_o therein_o only_o his_o will_n be_v manifest_v unto_o we_o again_o the_o action_n of_o the_o conscience_n say_v the_o apostle_n be_v in_o accuse_v and_o excuse_v which_o needs_o must_v have_v relation_n to_o the_o word_n for_o how_o can_v conscience_n just_o accuse_v i_o but_o because_o the_o thing_n i_o do_v be_v condemn_v of_o god_n or_o how_o can_v it_o excuse_v i_o but_o because_o my_o deed_n by_o god_n word_n which_o be_v his_o will_n be_v justifiable_a conscience_n therefore_o without_o direction_n of_o god_n word_n can_v give_v true_a judgement_n either_o to_o justification_n or_o condemnation_n whatsoever_o therefore_o be_v do_v with_o a_o erroneous_a conscience_n we_o see_v plain_o be_v sin_n for_o evil_a remain_v evil_a though_o conscience_n say_v the_o contrary_a a_o thousand_o time_n and_o so_o do_v good_a remain_v good_a as_o if_o a_o man_n come_v into_o a_o house_n in_o the_o dark_a where_o many_o thing_n be_v out_o of_o order_n which_o yet_o for_o the_o darkness_n he_o see_v not_o to_o be_v so_o be_v they_o not_o therefore_o out_o of_o order_n because_o he_o see_v they_o not_o the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v on_o the_o other_o side_n where_o all_o thing_n be_v pass_v well_o and_o yet_o he_o see_v it_o not_o conscience_n therefore_o be_v a_o guide_n to_o i_o and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n a_o guide_n to_o my_o conscience_n which_o if_o it_o be_v mark_v and_o ground_v in_o our_o heart_n o_o how_o will_v we_o tremble_v to_o be_v so_o ignorant_a of_o god_n word_n as_o often_o we_o be_v and_o to_o do_v as_o we_o do_v and_o say_v as_o we_o say_v this_o make_v we_o to_o run_v headlong_o with_o

by_o give_v judgement_n that_o god_n approove_v it_o this_o make_v we_o bold_a to_o worship_n god_n with_o man_n invention_n 7.7_o ●ay_n 29._o ●3_n ●ark_n 7.7_o not_o consider_v that_o such_o devise_n be_v mere_a sin_n because_o conscience_n can_v say_v of_o they_o according_a to_o her_o rule_n that_o they_o please_v god_n final_o as_o one_o say_v with_o a_o godly_a desire_n to_o awake_a us._n this_o make_v man_n life_n flow_v even_o with_o a_o sea_n of_o offence_n against_o god_n man_n common_o think_v that_o if_o they_o keep_v themselves_o from_o perjury_n blasphemy_n murder_n theft_n whoredom_n all_o be_v well_o with_o they_o but_o the_o truth_n be_v so_o long_o as_o they_o live_v in_o ignorance_n they_o want_v true_a and_o right_a direction_n out_o of_o god_n word_n and_o
