handle_v a_o quiet_a conscience_n i_o come_v now_o to_o speak_v of_o a_o trouble_a and_o unquiet_a conscience_n concern_v which_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o three_o thing_n 1._o what_o it_o be_v 2._o the_o degree_n of_o it_o 3._o the_o difference_n of_o the_o trouble_n that_o may_v be_v in_o a_o good_a and_o that_o may_v be_v in_o a_o bad_a conscience_n be_v i._o what_o a_o trouble_a conscience_n be_v it_o be_v a_o conscience_n accuse_v for_o sin_n and_o affright_v with_o apprehension_n of_o god_n wrath_n and_o here_o i_o will_v have_v you_o consider_v two_o thing_n 1._o what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o 2._o wherein_o it_o consist_v first_o the_o cause_n of_o it_o be_v these_o five_o 1._o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n when_o a_o man_n have_v do_v evil_a and_o his_o conscience_n do_v know_v it_o then_o do_v the_o conscience_n cry_v guilty_a 5.4_o when_o he_o know_v it_o say_v the_o text_n than_o he_o shall_v be_v guilty_a this_o be_v it_o which_o wound_v and_o pierce_v conscience_n this_o be_v the_o sad_a voice_n of_o conscience_n like_a judas_n i_o have_v sin_v in_o betray_v the_o innocent_a blood_n like_a cain_n my_o sin_n be_v great_a than_o can_v be_v forgive_v 42.21_o so_o the_o brethren_n of_o joseph_n we_o be_v guilty_a say_v they_o concern_v our_o brother_n it_o be_v like_o the_o head_n of_o a_o arrow_n stick_v in_o the_o flesh_n or_o like_o a_o dreadful_a object_n continual_o present_v itself_o before_o our_o eye_n my_o sin_n be_v ever_o before_o i_o 51.3_o say_v david_n when_o we_o have_v transgress_v god_n law_n and_o our_o conscience_n can_v cry_v guilty_a when_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n lie_v upon_o conscience_n this_o be_v one_o cause_n of_o the_o trouble_n of_o it_o 2._o another_o cause_n be_v the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n wrath_n for_o sin_n when_o know_v that_o we_o have_v sin_v and_o offend_v god_n we_o apprehend_v his_o wrath_n in_o our_o mind_n and_o behold_v the_o revenge_a eye_n of_o his_o justice_n against_o we_o this_o be_v a_o very_a grievous_a thing_n so_o terrible_a that_o no_o man_n or_o angel_n be_v able_a to_o abide_v it_o as_o we_o see_v the_o king_n and_o potentate_n the_o mighty_a man_n of_o the_o earth_n call_v for_o the_o mountain_n to_o fall_v upon_o they_o and_o the_o hill_n to_o cover_v they_o from_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n rev._n 6.15_o 16._o when_o we_o have_v incur_v god_n displeasure_n and_o our_o conscience_n see_v it_o when_o his_o anger_n rest_v upon_o we_o and_o our_o conscience_n feel_v it_o this_o be_v another_o cause_n of_o the_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n 3._o a_o three_o cause_n of_o the_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n be_v the_o fear_n of_o death_n and_o of_o hell_n when_o we_o know_v we_o have_v offend_v god_n law_n and_o we_o know_v also_o what_o our_o sin_n do_v deserve_v namely_o death_n and_o judgement_n and_o damnation_n for_o ever_o this_o do_v most_o trouble_n and_o disquiet_v conscience_n when_o it_o fasten_v on_o the_o apprehension_n of_o it_o the_o apostle_n call_v it_o a_o fearful_a look_v for_o of_o judgement_n when_o conscience_n look_v for_o nothing_o else_o but_o for_o hell_n and_o damnation_n this_o must_v needs_o trouble_v conscience_n 4._o another_o cause_n be_v privative_a want_v of_o supportance_n when_o god_n do_v withhold_v from_o conscience_n the_o help_n of_o his_o spirit_n you_o know_v the_o spirit_n can_v enable_v conscience_n to_o undergo_v all_o its_o trouble_n the_o spirit_n can_v prompt_v it_o with_o mercy_n and_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n and_o hold_v it_o up_o but_o when_o the_o lord_n bereave_v the_o conscience_n of_o this_o help_n and_o do_v not_o at_o all_o support_v it_o this_o must_v needs_o also_o trouble_v conscience_n 5._o when_o god_n do_v fasten_v on_o the_o conscience_n such_o thought_n as_o may_v affright_v and_o terrify_v it_o as_o thus_o god_n do_v not_o love_v i_o christ_n will_v not_o own_v i_o i_o have_v sin_v i_o be_o a_o reprobate_n past_a hope_n etc._n etc._n when_o such_o thought_n as_o these_o fasten_v on_o the_o conscience_n it_o can_v choose_v then_o but_o be_v trouble_v thus_o i_o have_v show_v you_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n second_o this_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n consist_v in_o two_o thing_n first_o in_o want_n of_o comfort_n it_o can_v apply_v to_o itself_o neither_o the_o promise_n of_o this_o life_n nor_o of_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v conscience_n cry_v this_o belong_v not_o to_o i_o this_o mercy_n this_o comfort_n be_v not_o my_o portion_n second_o in_o a_o terror_n and_o anguish_n of_o mind_n from_o these_o three_o head_n 1._o from_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n 2._o from_o the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n wrath_n 3._o from_o fear_n of_o death_n and_o of_o judgement_n this_o be_v the_o three-stringed_n whip_v wherewith_o conscience_n be_v lash_v these_o you_o shall_v find_v upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o adam_n and_o eve_n when_o they_o have_v sin_v against_o god_n their_o conscience_n be_v whip_v 1._o with_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n they_o see_v they_o be_v naked_a gen._n 3.7_o 2._o with_o the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n wrath_n they_o hide_v themselves_o from_o the_o
of_o they_o ere_o long_o so_o may_v i_o say_v of_o whatever_o may_v forward_o the_o peace_n of_o conscience_n buy_v it_o purchase_v it_o get_v it_o as_o much_o peace_n as_o you_o can_v possible_a you_o will_v have_v need_n of_o it_o all_o ere_o long_o take_v heed_n of_o trouble_v your_o conscience_n or_o clog_a they_o with_o guilt_n lest_o the_o lord_n cast_v you_o off_o and_o lest_o you_o be_v harden_v and_o so_o you_o perish_v from_o the_o right_a way_n do_v not_o think_v thus_o o_o we_o be_v believer_n and_o have_v no_o need_n of_o such_o threaten_n he_o who_o be_v certain_a of_o his_o salvation_n know_v assure_o he_o shall_v be_v damn_v if_o he_o shall_v go_v on_o in_o sin_n without_o repentance_n this_o if_o be_v true_a enough_o if_o the_o righteous_a forsake_v his_o righteousness_n 18.26_o all_o his_o former_a righteousness_n shall_v be_v forget_v and_o 9.16_o woe_n be_v i_o say_v paul_n if_o i_o preach_v not_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o state_n of_o innocence_n there_o be_v use_v of_o threaten_n so_o be_v there_o now_o in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n the_o lord_n threaten_v adam_n in_o innocence_n if_o thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v die_v the_o death_n job_n be_v awe_v by_o threaten_n not_o to_o lift_v up_o his_o hand_n against_o the_o fatherless_a for_o say_v he_o destruction_n from_o god_n be_v a_o terror_n to_o i_o 31.23_o my_o flesh_n 119.120_o say_v david_n tremble_v for_o fear_n of_o thou_o and_o i_o be_o afraid_a of_o thy_o judgement_n let_v we_o have_v grace_n 12.28_o say_v the_o apostle_n whereby_o we_o may_v serve_v god_n acceptable_o with_o reverence_n and_o godly_a fear_n why_o for_o our_o god_n be_v a_o consume_a fire_n for_o be_v it_o that_o god_n child_n that_o be_v all_o believer_n shall_v never_o fall_v final_o away_o yet_o this_o threaten_n be_v one_o of_o christ_n instrument_n whereby_o he_o keep_v they_o from_o fall_v and_o they_o also_o may_v taste_v of_o much_o bitterness_n if_o they_o grow_v indulgent_a to_o their_o corruption_n o_o therefore_o take_v heed_n of_o this_o curse_n that_o your_o conscience_n may_v not_o dog_v you_o with_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n wrath_n you_o will_v never_o be_v able_a to_o bear_v it_o much_o l●s●e_n in_o the_o time_n of_o affliction_n o_o it_o be_v good_a be_v in_o a_o dry_a house_n when_o a_o great_a tempest_n

in_o trouble_n 4_o question_n now_o i_o have_v declare_v unto_o you_o what_o a_o trouble_a conscience_n be_v what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o wherein_o it_o consist_v how_o many_o degree_n there_o be_v of_o it_o how_o the_o trouble_a conscience_n of_o the_o godly_a differ_v from_o the_o trouble_a conscience_n of_o the_o wicked_a the_o misery_n of_o a_o trouble_a conscience_n and_o what_o a_o deal_n of_o mischief_n it_o do_v one_o especial_o in_o affliction_n now_o i_o shall_v leave_v this_o point_n but_o that_o there_o be_v sundry_a question_n to_o be_v answer_v about_o it_o i._o suppose_v a_o man_n be_v rid_v of_o this_o trouble_n and_o have_v peace_n of_o conscience_n how_o shall_v he_o maintain_v it_o and_o keep_v out_o trouble_v from_o it_o ii_o whether_o and_o how_o the_o peace_n of_o our_o conscience_n depend_v upon_o our_o care_n and_o obedience_n iii_o what_o manner_n of_o obedience_n it_o be_v that_o peace_n of_o conscience_n do_v depend_v on_o iv._o if_o a_o man_n have_v no_o peace_n but_o only_o a_o burden_a conscience_n what_o must_v such_o a_o man_n do_v to_o be_v free_v from_o it_o and_o to_o attein_v true_a peace_n i._o question_n how_o a_o man_n may_v keep_v peace_n of_o conscience_n i_o begin_v with_o the_o first_o suppose_v a_o man_n have_v peace_n of_o conscience_n what_o must_v he_o do_v to_o keep_v and_o maintain_v it_o i_o answer_v first_o we_o must_v labour_v to_o prevent_v trouble_n of_o conscience_n by_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o do_v nothing_o contrary_a to_o conscience_n we_o must_v not_o be_v draw_v by_o friendship_n or_o credit_n or_o the_o love_n of_o any_o lust_n to_o do_v that_o which_o conscience_n forbid_v nothing_o shall_v be_v so_o dear_a unto_o we_o as_o the_o peace_n of_o conscience_n nothing_o for_o the_o love_n of_o it_o shall_v make_v we_o do_v aught_o against_o our_o conscience_n how_o miserable_a be_v those_o comfort_n delight_n satisfaction_n which_o we_o get_v to_o ourselves_o in_o such_o course_n as_o our_o own_o heart_n do_v condemn_v however_o they_o seem_v comfort_n for_o a_o while_n and_o contentment_n for_o a_o while_n and_o delight_n for_o a_o while_n yet_o at_o last_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o miserable_a comfort_n be_v they_o all_o nothing_o that_o we_o get_v in_o any_o evil_a way_n will_v cheer_v and_o comfort_v we_o in_o a_o time_n of_o need_n what_o say_v francis_n spira_n at_o the_o time_n of_o his_o death_n when_o see_v his_o wife_n and_o child_n about_o he_o and_o think_v on_o the_o good_n and_o estate_n which_o he_o have_v get_v for_o they_o by_o deny_v the_o truth_n which_o he_o have_v before_o maintain_v against_o the_o romish_a error_n he_o cry_v out_o in_o the_o horror_n of_o his_o conscience_n how_o terrible_a be_v the_o sight_n of_o these_o unto_o i_o however_o before_o they_o have_v be_v comfort_n to_o he_o yet_o now_o he_o can_v not_o endure_v the_o sight_n of_o they_o o_o think_v he_o i_o recant_v for_o your_o sake_n i_o yield_v to_o superstition_n and_o it_o be_v long_o of_o you_o therefore_o he_o abhor_v now_o the_o sight_n o●_n they_o wretched_a be_v he_o that_o allow_v himself_o in_o any_o course_n which_o his_o conscience_n find_v fault_n with_o it_o be_v a_o good_a rule_n the_o apostle_n give_v 14.22_o bless_a be_v he_o that_o condemn_v not_o himself_o in_o that_o which_o he_o allow_v that_o be_v bless_a be_v he_o that_o have_v not_o a_o condemn_a conscience_n that_o allow_v not_o himself_o in_o any_o course_n wherein_o his_o conscience_n do_v condemn_v he_o so_o that_o if_o we_o have_v peace_n of_o conscience_n and_o desire_v to_o maintain_v it_o let_v we_o never_o allow_v ourselves_o in_o any_o course_n that_o our_o conscience_n may_v condemn_v we_o in_o that_o be_v the_o first_o answer_n second_o if_o we_o will_v maintain_v our_o peace_n 2_o we_o must_v labour_v to_o have_v our_o heart_n ground_v in_o the_o assurance_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n alas_o it_o will_v fail_v we_o else_o and_o leave_v we_o in_o trouble_n and_o perplexity_n in_o time_n of_o great_a need_n observe_v how_o the_o apostle_n join_v love_n and_o peace_n together_o 2._o cor._n 13.11_o the_o god_n of_o love_n and_o peace_n be_v with_o you_o if_o he_o be_v the_o god_n of_o love_n to_o we_o it_o be_v sure_a enough_o he_o will_v be_v the_o god_n of_o peace_n also_o if_o we_o know_v once_o that_o god_n love_v we_o than_o we_o may_v set_v our_o heart_n at_o rest_n as_o long_o as_o we_o doubt_v of_o his_o love_n our_o conscience_n can_v never_o have_v true_a peace_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v maintain_v true_a peace_n of_o conscience_n let_v we_o labour_n to_o be_v assure_v of_o god_n love_n three_o we_o must_v use_v the_o exercise_n of_o faith_n in_o apply_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n 3._o we_o must_v labour_v to_o purge_v and_o cleanse_v our_o conscience_n with_o it_o if_o we_o find_v that_o we_o have_v sin_v we_o must_v run_v present_o to_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n to_o wash_v
