not_o always_o use_v it_o so_o though_o sin_n do_v not_o always_o appear_v bitter_a unto_o you_o yet_o it_o be_v and_o it_o appear_v not_o bitter_a oftentimes_o to_o some_o because_o it_o do_v not_o use_v its_o sting_n always_o but_o sin_n be_v bitter_a because_o it_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o affliction_n i_o say_v sin_n be_v the_o sting_n and_o edge_n of_o every_o affliction_n take_v sin_n from_o the_o affliction_n and_o affliction_n will_v be_v but_o a_o bulk_n without_o a_o burden_n or_o as_o a_o serpent_n without_o a_o sting_n or_o a_o sword_n without_o a_o edge_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a nothing_o be_v bitter_a nor_o hurt_n if_o sin_n be_v remove_v paul_n have_v a_o good_a conscience_n because_o sin_n be_v not_o join_v with_o it_o and_o therefore_o the_o affliction_n imprisonment_n and_o reproach_n that_o he_o meet_v withal_o do_v not_o hurt_v he_o they_o have_v no_o sting_n in_o they_o in_o 1._o cor._n 15._o 56._o say_v the_o apostle_n the_o sting_n of_o death_n be_v sin_n and_o the_o strength_n of_o sin_n be_v the_o law_n that_o 56._o which_o give_v a_o sting_n unto_o death_n be_v sin_n and_o that_o which_o give_v a_o sting_n unto_o sin_n be_v the_o law_n for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o the_o law_n there_o will_v be_v no_o sin_n and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o sin_n there_o will_v not_o be_v any_o sting_n or_o bitterness_n in_o death_n therefore_o sin_n can_v choose_v but_o in_o its_o own_o nature_n be_v exceed_v bitter_a and_o evil_a and_o therefore_o esteem_v how_o you_o will_v of_o sin_n now_o but_o if_o once_o you_o come_v to_o know_v god_n in_o his_o power_n and_o greatness_n than_o you_o shall_v know_v sin_n to_o be_v bitter_a and_o evil_a and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o sin_n make_v we_o to_o see_v god_n as_o a_o judge_n ready_a to_o cast_v we_o into_o hell_n out_o of_o his_o presence_n and_o utter_o to_o destroy_v we_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o paul_n be_v so_o affright_v and_o astonish_v in_o this_o place_n but_o because_o he_o see_v god_n in_o his_o power_n and_o holiness_n and_o sin_n contrary_a unto_o the_o pure_a nature_n of_o god_n and_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o the_o jailor_n be_v so_o affright_v be_v it_o because_o the_o prison_n door_n be_v open_v no_o but_o because_o he_o apprehend_v a_o wonderful_a power_n in_o god_n there_o be_v a_o glimpse_n of_o the_o power_n of_o god_n that_o shine_v into_o his_o heart_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o so_o affright_v he_o so_o you_o see_v that_o the_o more_o that_o any_o man_n see_v into_o the_o power_n and_o majesty_n of_o god_n the_o more_o bitter_a will_v sin_n be_v unto_o the_o soul_n as_o we_o see_v in_o judas_n he_o see_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o then_o sin_n become_v bitter_a unto_o he_o now_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o god_n bear_v the_o burden_n of_o his_o child_n and_o keep_v it_o off_o from_o they_o else_o with_o judas_n they_o will_v sink_v under_o they_o again_o sometime_o he_o do_v not_o lay_v it_o upon_o they_o but_o they_o lay_v it_o upon_o themselves_o but_o if_o god_n lay_v it_o on_o they_o shall_v see_v sin_n to_o be_v a_o bitter_a thing_n second_o as_o sin_n be_v bitter_a so_o it_o shall_v appear_v to_o be_v so_o unto_o all_o man_n soon_o or_o late_a and_o that_o for_o 2._o these_o reason_n the_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o otherwise_o god_n shall_v loose_v his_o glory_n i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o this_o glory_n reason_n shall_v be_v take_v away_o for_o nothing_o neither_o sin_n nor_o satan_n shall_v take_v away_o god_n glory_n because_o all_o thing_n work_v for_o his_o glory_n neither_o can_v any_o thing_n add_v unto_o his_o glory_n but_o i_o say_v if_o god_n shall_v not_o make_v sin_n bitter_a unto_o man_n soon_o or_o late_a his_o glory_n shall_v be_v suspend_v for_o a_o time_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v usual_a with_o the_o lord_n to_o prefix_v unto_o many_o threaten_n his_o own_a name_n the_o prophet_n use_v it_o frequent_o after_o that_o they_o have_v pronounce_v judgement_n against_o rebellious_a sinner_n than_o they_o add_v thus_o say_v the_o lord_n and_o you_o shall_v know_v that_o i_o be_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v because_o you_o will_v rebel_v against_o i_o therefore_o you_o shall_v know_v that_o sin_n be_v a_o bitter_a and_o terrible_a thing_n because_o i_o will_v not_o have_v my_o glory_n suspend_v therefore_o you_o shall_v be_v punish_v that_o you_o may_v know_v sin_n to_o be_v a_o bitter_a thing_n the_o second_o reason_n be_v because_o every_o sin_n be_v the_o breach_n of_o a_o just_a law_n now_o god_n will_v have_v the_o obedience_n reason_n of_o every_o creature_n frame_v according_a to_o his_o law_n and_o all_o their_o action_n must_v be_v square_v by_o this_o rule_n and_o the_o law_n be_v this_o do_v this_o and_o live_v if_o thou_o do_v it_o not_o thou_o shall_v die_v so_o that_o the_o law_n be_v a_o injunctive_a law_n that_o enjoin_v either_o a_o man_n to_o do_v or_o to_o suffer_v the_o penalty_n that_o be_v jnjoyne_v punishment_n to_o follow_v the_o breach_n of_o it_o so_o that_o if_o a_o man_n break_v the_o law_n than_o he_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o be_v punish_v for_o god_n be_v zealous_a of_o his_o law_n and_o he_o will_v not_o pass_v a_o sinner_n in_o the_o breach_n of_o it_o without_o satisfaction_n because_o every_o injunctive_a law_n as_o it_o bind_v to_o obedience_n so_o it_o bind_v the_o disobedient_a unto_o punishment_n the_o three_o reason_n be_v because_o of_o the_o justice_n of_o reason_n god_n if_o he_o shall_v not_o punish_v sinner_n when_o they_o sin_n if_o he_o shall_v not_o make_v they_o to_o feel_v that_o sin_n be_v bitter_a soon_o or_o latter_a he_o shall_v not_o be_v god_n therefore_o say_v abraham_n shall_v not_o the_o god_n of_o all_o the_o earth_n do_v right_a gen._n 18._o that_o be_v spare_v the_o good_a but_o punish_v the_o wicked_a it_o be_v equity_n that_o he_o shall_v do_v so_o and_o indeed_o if_o man_n punish_v offender_n that_o break_v the_o just_a law_n of_o their_o prince_n and_o it_o be_v equity_n for_o man_n to_o do_v so_o otherwise_o there_o will_v be_v no_o order_n in_o the_o world_n nor_o no_o rectitude_n among_o man_n how_o much_o more_o shall_v god_n for_o all_o the_o rectitude_n that_o be_v in_o the_o creature_n come_v from_o god_n and_o therefore_o this_o be_v equity_n with_o man_n to_o punish_v offender_n sure_o it_o be_v justice_n in_o god_n to_o punish_v sinner_n it_o be_v his_o nature_n for_o justice_n in_o god_n be_v god_n himself_o but_o you_o will_v say_v it_o do_v not_o appear_v so_o that_o object_n god_n do_v punish_v offender_n for_o we_o see_v wicked_a man_n prosper_v in_o their_o wickedness_n and_o they_o have_v no_o bond_n in_o their_o death_n as_o job_n say_v they_o feel_v sin_n not_o so_o bitter_a as_o you_o say_v it_o be_v when_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o godly_a suffer_v much_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o man_n judgement_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n in_o this_o thing_n god_n answ._n know_v better_o how_o and_o when_o and_o where_o to_o take_v offender_n than_o man_n can_v therefore_o though_o god_n do_v suspend_v execution_n awhile_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o because_o they_o shall_v escape_v unpunished_a but_o for_o these_o reason_n the_o first_o reason_n be_v this_o he_o suspend_v the_o execution_n reason_n of_o punishment_n for_o a_o time_n because_o the_o time_n of_o punishment_n be_v not_o as_o yet_o come_v you_o know_v the_o crown_n be_v not_o win_v till_o the_o race_n be_v run_v out_o to_o the_o end_n so_o in_o this_o the_o full_a time_n be_v not_o come_v sin_n be_v not_o ripe_a enough_o but_o when_o it_o be_v full_a ripe_a than_o he_o will_v lance_v they_o and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o punish_v the_o amorites_n because_o their_o sin_n be_v not_o full_a it_o be_v not_o come_v unto_o the_o full_a 15._o pitch_n sin_n be_v grow_v all_o the_o time_n of_o a_o man_n life_n it_o be_v like_a fruit_n it_o be_v soon_o ripe_a in_o some_o then_o in_o other_o and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o some_o go_v a_o long_a time_n in_o sin_n and_o yet_o be_v not_o punish_v when_o other_o be_v take_v in_o the_o very_a fact_n there_o be_v a_o bind_v and_o stint_v set_v unto_o every_o man_n sin_n thither_o he_o shall_v go_v and_o no_o further_o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v rom._n 2._o 5._o that_o some_o be_v keep_v till_o the_o revelation_n 5._o of_o god_n just_a judgement_n till_o he_o reveal_v himself_o in_o his_o just_a judgement_n this_o time_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o they_o be_v not_o cut_v off_o again_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o
