a_o gainsay_n heart_n thou_o have_v a_o stout_a spirit_n against_o god_n thy_o heart_n be_v as_o hard_a as_o a_o adamant_n as_o hard_o as_o the_o rock_n yet_o here_o be_v thy_o comfort_n all_o the_o gainsaying_n of_o thy_o spirit_n and_o all_o the_o stubbornness_n of_o thy_o will_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v off_o convert_v mercy_n and_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v off_o call_v grace_n from_o thou_o when_o god_n have_v a_o intent_n to_o call_v thou_o he_o will_v come_v with_o power_n by_o his_o call_n and_o make_v thou_o do_v what_o he_o command_v thou_o and_o make_v thou_o embrace_v what_o he_o call_v thou_o to_o do_v not_o jesus_n christ_n use_v a_o operative_a call_n as_o well_o as_o a_o significative_a call_n no_o man_n in_o the_o world_n will_v ever_o be_v call_v and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o in_o hear_v the_o same_o sermon_n and_o follow_v the_o same_o preacher_n one_o man_n be_v convert_v the_o other_o be_v not_o the_o reason_n be_v this_o the_o call_n of_o the_o ministry_n be_v only_o a_o significative_a call_n of_o a_o reprobate_n only_o signify_v what_o god_n will_v have_v he_o do_v but_o there_o be_v no_o power_n convey_v with_o the_o invitation_n to_o make_v the_o man_n able_a to_o do_v what_o christ_n call_v he_o to_o and_o therefore_o one_o be_v call_v the_o other_o be_v not_o thus_o much_o in_o answer_n to_o the_o first_o case_n case_n 2_o second_o what_o temptation_n do_v the_o devil_n suggest_v to_o man_n who_o be_v uncalled_a that_o they_o shall_v not_o give_v entertainment_n to_o or_o embrace_v the_o call_n of_o jesus_n christ_n unto_o grace_n and_o glory_n and_o in_o answer_n to_o this_o i_o shall_v lay_v down_o only_o four_o suggestion_n of_o the_o devil_n wherewith_o he_o entangle_v a_o man_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o yield_v to_o the_o call_v of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o as_o i_o lay_v they_o down_o i_o shall_v labour_v to_o take_v they_o away_o as_o 1._o the_o first_o temptation_n the_o devil_n will_v suggest_v be_v to_o you_o that_o be_v young_a man_n and_o to_o you_o he_o will_v suggest_v that_o you_o be_v yet_o too_o young_a to_o embrace_v the_o call_n of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o will_v be_v time_n enough_o hereafter_o and_o you_o may_v do_v it_o soon_o enough_o hereafter_o you_o be_v too_o young_a now_o to_o be_v abridge_v of_o your_o pleasure_n and_o to_o mortify_v your_o lust_n and_o to_o betake_v yourselves_o unto_o so_o serious_a a_o course_n as_o christ_n call_v you_o to_o and_o by_o this_o temptation_n the_o devil_n prevail_v with_o young_a man_n more_o especial_o and_o i_o remember_v austin_n say_v that_o this_o temptation_n of_o the_o devil_n make_v he_o keep_v off_o for_o seven_o year_n together_o from_o embrace_v the_o call_v of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o devil_n will_v still_o tell_v he_o in_o his_o heart_n thou_o be_v too_o young_a to_o leave_v thy_o drunkenness_n and_o too_o young_a to_o leave_v thy_o harlot_n till_o at_o last_o he_o cry_v out_o how_o long_o shall_v i_o say_v it_o be_v too_o soon_o why_o may_v i_o not_o repent_v to_o day_n this_o temptation_n i_o say_v it_o have_v fasten_v upon_o many_o before_o you_o that_o they_o be_v too_o young_a to_o come_v in_o to_o jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o this_o end_n the_o devil_n will_v suggest_v to_o you_o that_o old_a and_o false_a proverb_n a_o young_a saint_n and_o a_o old_a devil_n whereas_o indeed_o if_o you_o be_v young_a devil_n you_o will_v be_v old_a beelzebub_n and_o therefore_o this_o be_v a_o suggestion_n prevail_v with_o many_o heart_n i_o shall_v lay_v down_o six_o consideration_n to_o take_v off_o this_o temptation_n that_o it_o may_v not_o prevail_v with_o you_o first_o if_o the_o devil_n tempt_v you_o that_o you_o be_v yet_o too_o young_a to_o hearken_v to_o christ_n call_n consider_v that_o the_o devil_n can_v give_v you_o a_o lease_n of_o your_o life_n if_o the_o devil_n can_v give_v you_o a_o lease_n of_o your_o life_n and_o tell_v you_o you_o shall_v live_v till_o old_a age_n you_o may_v then_o with_o more_o safety_n hearken_v to_o his_o temptation_n but_o your_o life_n be_v not_o at_o the_o devil_n disposal_n god_n be_v the_o author_n of_o your_o life_n the_o issue_n of_o life_n and_o death_n be_v in_o his_o hand_n you_o may_v die_v in_o youth_n and_o if_o you_o die_v in_o youth_n uncalled_a you_o may_v be_v damn_v as_o well_o as_o dead_a you_o may_v be_v as_o these_o man_n job_n 36.14_o that_o shall_v die_v in_o their_o youth_n and_o their_o life_n shall_v be_v among_o the_o unclean_a and_o therefore_o though_o the_o devil_n tempt_v you_o that_o you_o be_v too_o young_a see_v he_o can_v assure_v you_o of_o your_o life_n you_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o hearken_v to_o his_o temptation_n second_o suppose_v the_o devil_n can_v assure_v you_o you_o shall_v live_v till_o old_a age_n yet_o take_v this_o consideration_n that_o in_o put_v off_o your_o call_n and_o the_o work_n of_o conversion_n from_o your_o youth_n this_o may_v so_o provoke_v god_n that_o he_o may_v harden_v your_o heart_n in_o your_o old_a day_n that_o you_o shall_v have_v no_o heart_n to_o think_v of_o and_o embrace_v the_o call_n and_o invitation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n jer._n 22.21_o i_o speak_v to_o thou_o in_o thy_o prosperity_n but_o thou_o will_v not_o hear_v and_o this_o have_v be_v thy_o manner_n from_o thy_o youth_n thou_o will_v not_o obey_v my_o voice_n god_n speak_v but_o they_o will_v not_o hear_v and_o it_o be_v from_o their_o youth_n that_o they_o do_v thus_o therefore_o god_n will_v never_o speak_v more_o god_n harden_v their_o heart_n that_o they_o shall_v never_o receive_v or_o embrace_v the_o call_n of_o jesus_n christ_n so_o isa_n 6.9.10_o see_v the_o jew_n from_o their_o youth_n be_v obstinate_a against_o the_o word_n of_o god_n go_v say_v god_n make_v their_o ear_n heavy_a and_o their_o heart_n fat_a and_o their_o eye_n blind_a that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v call_v and_o convert_v and_o i_o shall_v save_v they_o let_v this_o therefore_o be_v a_o second_o consideration_n that_o the_o put_v off_o your_o call_n till_o your_o old_a age_n may_v so_o provoke_v god_n as_o never_o to_o give_v you_o heart_n to_o embrace_v his_o call_n three_o suppose_v all_o this_o that_o you_o can_v have_v a_o lease_n of_o your_o life_n and_o you_o can_v be_v assure_v that_o when_o you_o come_v to_o old_a age_n your_o heart_n shall_v not_o be_v harden_v yet_o consider_v this_o that_o the_o more_o sinful_a and_o evil_a the_o day_n of_o your_o youth_n have_v be_v the_o more_o disquietness_n of_o mind_n and_o horror_n of_o conscience_n will_v this_o breed_v in_o you_o when_o you_o be_v old_a though_o you_o shall_v be_v call_v and_o convert_v by_o jesus_n christ_n job_n 13.24_o 25_o 26._o thou_o hide_v thy_o face_n thou_o hold_v i_o as_o thy_o enemy_n thou_o do_v drive_v i_o as_o a_o leaf_n to_o and_o fro_o and_o thou_o do_v pursue_v i_o like_o dry_a stubble_n now_o why_o do_v job_n complain_v thus_o mark_v the_o next_o word_n for_o thou_o write_v bitter_a thing_n against_o i_o and_o make_v i_o to_o possess_v the_o iniquity_n of_o my_o youth_n job_n when_o he_o be_v a_o young_a man_n it_o seem_v he_o be_v a_o wicked_a man_n and_o have_v many_o sin_n in_o his_o youth_n and_o this_o in_o his_o old_a age_n make_v he_o cry_v out_o and_o say_v that_o god_n take_v he_o for_o his_o enemy_n and_o that_o god_n break_v he_o like_o a_o leaf_n drive_v with_o the_o wind_n o_o belove_a the_o sin_n of_o your_o youth_n though_o you_o shall_v be_v job_n convert_v yet_o they_o will_v bring_v great_a disquietness_n and_o great_a horror_n when_o you_o come_v to_o age_n the_o lust_n of_o youth_n and_o the_o vanity_n of_o youth_n and_o the_o sensual_a pleasure_n of_o your_o youthful_a day_n they_o will_v lay_v a_o foundation_n of_o sorrow_n when_o you_o come_v to_o gray_a hair_n to_o be_v near_o your_o grave_n so_o job_n 20.11_o and_o therefore_o put_v the_o case_n you_o shall_v repent_v and_o shall_v be_v call_v when_o you_o be_v old_a you_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o put_v off_o the_o call_n of_o jesus_n christ_n see_v sin_n of_o youth_n will_v fill_v you_o with_o horror_n and_o
