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

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 thus_o now_o i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o second_o question_n which_o i_o promise_v you_o to_o answer_v i_o shall_v now_o spend_v a_o little_a time_n in_o wind_a up_o what_o i_o have_v say_v in_o a_o

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

or_o 4_o question_n to_o you_o first_o let_v i_o ask_v this_o question_n be_v you_o ever_o without_o christ_n yea_o or_o no_o if_o you_o answer_v no_o then_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o thus_o much_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

interest_n in_o christ_n let_v i_o ask_v you_o this_o question_n how_o come_v you_o by_o your_o interest_n in_o christ_n do_v you_o think_v that_o christ_n fall_v from_o heaven_n into_o your_o bosom_n 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 he_o to_o those_o that_o never_o ask_v he_o 3._o let_v

that_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o live_v a_o godly_a life_n be_v both_o join_v together_o as_o 2_o tim._n 3._o 12._o all_o that_o will_v live_v godly_a in_o christ_n jesus_n that_o man_n who_o person_n be_v in_o christ_n will_v labour_v that_o his_o way_n may_v be_v in_o christ_n too_o many_o a_o one_o will_v glad_o have_v his_o person_n in_o christ_n though_o his_o life_n be_v not_o in_o christ_n but_o those_o who_o person_n and_o way_n be_v both_o in_o christ_n they_o may_v lay_v a_o comfortable_a claim_n to_o he_o the_o difference_n between_o a_o man_n that_o have_v a_o interest_n in_o christ_n and_o one_o that_o have_v none_o i_o shall_v demonstrate_v to_o you_o by_o this_o familiar_a example_n you_o know_v a_o man_n that_o by_o experience_n know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o make_v clean_o a_o room_n he_o will_v be_v careful_a that_o he_o do_v not_o upon_o every_o slight_a occasion_n dirt_n it_o again_o because_o he_o know_v what_o a_o deal_n of_o pain_n and_o labour_n be_v take_v in_o cleanse_v of_o it_o but_o now_o a_o dog_n or_o a_o spaniel_n he_o come_v in_o and_o never_o care_v for_o dirt_v of_o it_o because_o he_o do_v not_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o make_v it_o clean_o why_o so_o a_o godly_a man_n he_o will_v be_v careful_a of_o walk_v worthy_a of_o his_o interest_n in_o christ_n because_o he_o know_v how_o much_o it_o cost_v he_o how_o many_o tear_n and_o sigh_n and_o groan_n and_o prayer_n before_o he_o get_v a_o interest_n in_o christ_n and_o a_o assurance_n of_o his_o love_n but_o now_o a_o wicked_a man_n he_o make_v no_o conscience_n of_o sin_v against_o christ_n and_o displease_v of_o he_o because_o he_o never_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o get_v a_o interest_n in_o he_o in_o gal._n 3._o 21._o say_v the_o apostle_n there_o as_o many_o as_o have_v christ_n they_o have_v put_v on_o christ_n and_o a_o very_a learned_a interpreter_n have_v a_o exceed_a good_a note_n upon_o this_o text_n he_o say_v that_o this_o speech_n of_o the_o apostle_n here_o be_v speak_v in_o a_o allusion_n to_o a_o ancient_a custom_n among_o the_o heathen_n that_o when_o they_o come_v to_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o faith_n they_o be_v wont_n always_o between_o easter_n and_o whitsuntide_n to_o put_v off_o their_o old_a garment_n and_o put_v on_o white_a raiment_n the_o end_n of_o it_o be_v to_o typify_v and_o note_v that_o when_o once_o they_o be_v in_o christ_n they_o must_v leave_v off_o their_o old_a course_n and_o conversation_n and_o now_o labour_v to_o walk_v after_o a_o more_o holy_a and_o blameless_a and_o innocent_a life_n in_o their_o

unblameable_a life_n and_o conversation_n 9_o a_o man_n that_o have_v a_o interest_n in_o christ_n do_v so_o prize_v he_o that_o he_o will_v not_o be_v without_o he_o for_o all_o the_o world_n there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n but_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o the_o most_o amiabl_a and_o desireabl_a good_a in_o the_o world_n he_o know_v the_o worth_n of_o christ_n and_o count_v he_o as_o a_o invaluable_a treasure_n in_o 1_o pet._n 2._o 7._o the_o apostle_n after_o he_o have_v tell_v they_o of_o their_o be_v build_v upon_o christ_n as_o lively_a stone_n upon_o the_o foundation_n he_o conclude_v to_o you_o therefore_o which_o believe_v christ_n be_v precious_a intimate_v that_o whosoever_o be_v found_v and_o bottom_v upon_o christ_n christ_n be_v very_o precious_a to_o that_o
