and_o so_o iniquity_n shall_v not_o be_v your_o ruin_n for_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v and_o swear_v that_o as_o he_o live_v he_o take_v no_o pleasure_n in_o the_o death_n of_o the_o wicked_a but_o rather_o that_o he_o turn_v from_o his_o way_n and_o live_v 33.11_o turn_v you_o turn_v you_o wherefore_o will_v you_o die_v the_o very_a angel_n of_o heaven_n will_v be_v glad_a at_o the_o day_n of_o your_o conversion_n but_o if_o you_o harden_v your_o heart_n and_o refuse_v to_o harken_v to_o the_o gracious_a call_n of_o the_o lord_n your_o damnation_n be_v just_a your_o blood_n will_v be_v upon_o your_o own_o head_n you_o have_v be_v warn_v and_o warn_v again_o and_o again_o by_o many_o worthy_a minister_n and_o messenger_n of_o god_n that_o have_v preach_v in_o your_o congregation_n and_o among_o other_o you_o have_v be_v warn_v heretofore_o by_o we_o in_o preach_v and_o now_o by_o we_o in_o writing_n but_o beside_o this_o sin_n of_o profaneness_n and_o open_a ungodliness_n there_o be_v another_o evil_a no_o less_o dangerous_a which_o be_v often_o find_v among_o they_o that_o profess_v more_o purity_n and_o reformation_n of_o life_n and_o that_o be_v when_o man_n bless_v themselves_o in_o their_o own_o righteousness_n and_o think_v their_o condition_n safe_a and_o good_a mere_o because_o of_o some_o legal_a reformation_n without_o any_o feeling_n of_o their_o need_n of_o christ_n any_o high_a prize_n of_o he_o any_o earnest_a longing_n for_o he_o any_o true_a rely_v or_o rest_v on_o he_o that_o it_o be_v incident_a to_o professor_n to_o offend_v in_o this_o kind_n be_v plain_a by_o that_o which_o be_v write_v of_o the_o pharisee_n that_o they_o trust_v in_o themselves_o that_o they_o be_v righteous_a and_o despise_v other_o and_o according_o one_o of_o they_o be_v bring_v in_o boast_v of_o himself_o before_o god_n 12._o that_o he_o be_v not_o like_o other_o man_n he_o be_v no_o extortioner_n no_o adulterer_n no_o unjust_a person_n nor_o like_o that_o publican_n but_o he_o fast_v twice_o a_o week_n he_o give_v tithe_n of_o all_o that_o he_o possess_v and_o the_o like_a and_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n general_o 3_o that_o they_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n and_o go_v about_o to_o establish_v their_o own_o righteousness_n do_v not_o subject_v themselves_o to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n which_o place_n do_v also_o show_v the_o dangerous_a condition_n of_o all_o such_o justiciaries_n in_o this_o respect_n that_o be_v so_o full_a of_o their_o own_o righteousness_n they_o submit_v not_o themselves_o to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n nor_o unto_o christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n for_o righteousness_n to_o every_o one_o that_o believe_v but_o of_o this_o you_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o whatever_o a_o man_n righteousness_n may_v be_v unless_o he_o be_v one_o that_o have_v never_o sin_v he_o have_v nothing_o in_o he_o that_o be_v of_o any_o worth_n for_o the_o present_a justification_n of_o his_o person_n nor_o for_o the_o everlasting_a salvation_n of_o his_o soul_n for_o the_o text_n be_v plain_a that_o in_o god_n sight_n there_o be_v no_o flesh_n live_v that_o can_v be_v justify_v psal._n 143.2_o and_o therefore_o such_o holy_a man_n as_o david_n daniel_n nehemiah_n paul_n and_o other_o dare_v not_o stand_v to_o be_v try_v and_o justify_v that_o way_n psal._n 143.2_o dan._n 9.18_o neh._n 13.22_o phil._n 3.9_o but_o have_v be_v glad_a to_o fly_v for_o this_o matter_n only_o to_o the_o free_a mercy_n and_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n jesus_n which_o be_v by_o faith_n and_o you_o will_v find_v that_o it_o will_v be_v best_a for_o you_o to_o do_v the_o like_a it_o may_v be_v you_o will_v say_v we_o have_v no_o need_n to_o be_v tell_v of_o this_o for_o we_o be_v not_o papist_n to_o hold_n justification_n by_o work_n but_o do_v believe_v that_o justification_n be_v by_o faith_n only_o without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n nevertheless_o we_o can_v think_v it_o needless_a for_o man_n to_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n of_o this_o matter_n i_o partly_o because_o there_o be_v many_o the_o lord_n know_v in_o that_o dear_a country_n of_o we_o who_o discover_v themselves_o to_o be_v deep_o taint_v with_o this_o as_o well_o as_o other_o point_n of_o popery_n and_o partly_o because_o this_o popery_n this_o pride_n and_o self-love_n be_v natural_a to_o all_o the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v a_o part_n of_o that_o original_a sin_n which_o be_v common_a to_o all_o as_o well_o as_o to_o those_o that_o make_v direct_a profession_n of_o popery_n and_o therefore_o yourselves_o unless_o you_o be_v free_a from_o all_o original_a corruption_n be_v in_o danger_n of_o this_o rely_n upon_o selfrighteousness_n as_o well_o as_o papist_n nay_o we_o fear_v be_v it_o speak_v without_o offence_n that_o there_o be_v sundry_a among_o you_o that_o do_v so_o rely_v indeed_o and_o though_o they_o be_v not_o outward_o culpable_a in_o respect_n of_o popery_n and_o profaneness_n but_o profess_v a_o strict_a and_o pure_a way_n yet_o in_o very_a truth_n be_v in_o no_o better_a condition_n to_o godward_a than_o other_o be_v as_o be_v utter_o without_o part_n and_o portion_n in_o christ_n jesus_n for_o the_o manifest_v whereof_o we_o hope_v you_o will_v easy_o grant_v that_o whoever_o have_v no_o more_o religion_n in_o he_o but_o what_o may_v have_v be_v attain_v if_o christ_n have_v never_o be_v such_o a_o one_o whatever_o religion_n he_o may_v seem_v to_o have_v be_v certain_o without_o christ_n and_o in_o a_o state_n of_o death_n unto_o this_o day_n and_o that_o so_o it_o be_v with_o many_o professor_n may_v appear_v by_o this_o that_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n for_o sin_n and_o reformation_n of_o life_n after_o that_o troubler_n be_v all_o the_o religion_n that_o be_v find_v in_o many_o professor_n for_o let_v a_o man_n attain_v to_o these_o two_o to_o be_v sting_v in_o conscience_n for_o his_o sin_n and_o afterwards_o to_o take_v up_o a_o strict_a course_n of_o life_n in_o the_o practice_n of_o good_a duty_n as_o prayer_n in_o his_o family_n frequent_v of_o sermon_n converse_v with_o christian_n and_o such_o like_a and_o how_o many_o be_v there_o that_o hereupon_o will_v account_v themselves_o and_o be_v account_v by_o other_o to_o be_v right_o good_a christian_n and_o in_o a_o most_o bless_a condition_n whenas_o the_o truth_n be_v all_o that_o be_v here_o mention_v be_v no_o more_o than_o may_v be_v wrought_v by_o the_o law_n though_o christ_n jesus_n have_v never_o come_v into_o the_o world_n for_o a_o serious_a consideration_n of_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n be_v threaten_v may_v produce_v the_o one_o and_o the_o serious_a consideration_n of_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o law_n be_v press_v and_o urge_v may_v produce_v the_o other_o but_o both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o without_o christ_n and_o consequent_o both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o without_o salvation_n sith_o there_o be_v no_o salvation_n without_o christ_n wherefore_o dear_a friend_n in_o the_o bowel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n we_o do_v beseech_v you_o examine_v yourselves_o whether_o it_o be_v thus_o with_o you_o or_o with_o any_o of_o you_o ask_v yourselves_o this_o question_n whether_o any_o evangelical_a and_o save_a work_n of_o grace_n and_o faith_n in_o christ_n be_v yet_o wrought_v in_o your_o soul_n or_o whether_o all_o that_o yet_o you_o have_v have_v experience_n of_o do_v amount_v to_o no_o more_o but_o legal_a affrightment_n and_o legal_a amendment_n and_o if_o upon_o examination_n any_o soul_n among_o you_o shall_v find_v his_o condition_n to_o be_v no_o better_o than_o this_o that_o here_o we_o be_v speak_v of_o in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n let_v such_o a_o soul_n be_v deep_o humble_v and_o repent_v in_o dust_n and_o ash_n for_o this_o among_o all_o his_o other_o sin_n that_o he_o have_v prize_v christ_n no_o more_o think_v himself_o to_o be_v rich_a and_o increase_v in_o good_n and_o to_o have_v need_n of_o nothing_o because_o of_o legal_a duty_n and_o ●●mmon_a grace_n not_o know_v how_o through_o want_n of_o christ_n jesus_n in_o his_o soul_n he_o have_v all_o this_o while_n be_v miserable_a and_o wretched_a and_o blind_a and_o poor_a and_o naked_a and_o let_v a_o man_n consider_v with_o himself_o and_o the_o lord_n grant_v that_o he_o may_v consider_v it_o serious_o that_o it_o be_v not_o all_o this_o humiliation_n and_o reformation_n that_o can_v make_v satisfaction_n to_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n for_o any_o one_o though_o but_o the_o least_o of_o all_o his_o manifold_a transgression_n nor_o justify_v his_o person_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o if_o he_o die_v in_o this_o
