therefore_o the_o psalmist_n do_v not_o appeal_v here_o to_o the_o mix_a multitude_n of_o jew_n much_o less_o to_o all_o mankind_n but_o to_o those_o alone_a who_o fear_v god_n and_o these_o undoubted_o be_v transport_v with_o holy_a joy_n at_o what_o he_o relate_v to_o they_o how_o much_o more_o will_v they_o be_v so_o in_o the_o like_a case_n who_o believe_v true_o in_o the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o they_o who_o be_v always_o remember_v the_o sweet_a command_n of_o mercy_n and_o love_n which_o the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n breathe_v out_o continual_o they_o who_o have_v always_o before_o their_o eye_n those_o holy_a example_n of_o goodness_n and_o charity_n which_o our_o bless_a lord_n leave_v we_o will_v also_o have_v a_o tender_a concern_v upon_o they_o for_o the_o good_a of_o their_o neighbour_n especial_o in_o what_o relate_v to_o the_o salvation_n of_o his_o soul_n and_o therefore_o will_v rejoice_v to_o see_v he_o recover_v from_o the_o very_a brink_n of_o ruin_n to_o behold_v he_o turn_v back_o when_o just_a fall_n into_o eternal_a damnation_n it_o be_v to_o these_o then_o alone_o that_o we_o appeal_v at_o present_a in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n come_v and_o hear_v all_o you_o that_o fear_v god_n etc._n etc._n 2._o let_v we_o consider_v the_o publickness_n of_o that_o acknowledgement_n which_o he_o design_v to_o make_v and_o his_o earnestness_n with_o they_o to_o attend_v to_o he_o come_v and_o hear_v and_o i_o will_v declare_v unto_o you_o though_o david_n be_v a_o very_a great_a prince_n and_o the_o sin_n which_o he_o fall_v into_o be_v very_o great_a both_o in_o their_o nature_n and_o their_o circumstance_n as_o be_v against_o much_o knowledge_n and_o long_a experience_n of_o god_n goodness_n and_o therefore_o the_o more_o shameful_a yet_o he_o be_v always_o ready_a to_o make_v a_o public_a confession_n of_o they_o as_o he_o do_v particular_o in_o the_o 51_o psal_n upon_o the_o matter_n of_o uriah_n but_o humane_a nature_n general_o be_v very_o averse_a to_o this_o whither_o in_o return_v from_o error_n to_o truth_n or_o from_o vice_n to_o virtue_n with_o what_o strange_a confidence_n do_v some_o man_n value_v themselves_o upon_o the_o foul_a vice_n with_o what_o impudence_n do_v other_o scoff_v at_o all_o religion_n and_o blaspheme_n the_o son_n of_o god_n with_o what_o harden_a obstinacy_n and_o sullen_a bitterness_n do_v other_o again_o break_v through_o all_o the_o law_n of_o modesty_n and_o charity_n to_o bear_v their_o testimony_n to_o the_o gross_a error_n but_o if_o through_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n they_o become_v sensible_a of_o this_o and_o cool_v by_o degree_n from_o the_o violent_a heat_n of_o debauchery_n or_o enthusiasm_n and_o be_v willing_a to_o return_v again_o to_o themselves_o and_o to_o their_o god_n yet_o how_o full_a of_o fear_n and_o shame_n be_v they_o with_o what_o caution_n and_o privacy_n do_v they_o proceed_v what_o care_n be_v take_v to_o secure_v their_o honour_n or_o cover_v their_o reputation_n lest_o they_o shall_v be_v censure_v for_o want_n of_o judgement_n or_o levity_n and_o inconstancy_n but_o how_o unreasonable_a be_v this_o the_o want_n of_o judgement_n sure_o be_v discover_v at_o first_o in_o the_o fall_n into_o error_n nor_o in_o the_o disclaim_n it_o so_o the_o levity_n and_o inconstancy_n be_v notorious_a in_o the_o turn_v out_o of_o the_o right_a way_n into_o every_o dirty_a by-lane_n and_o mistake_v the_o hot_a vapour_n of_o a_o distemper_a brain_n for_o the_o light_n of_o revelation_n to_o persist_v in_o a_o error_n for_o fear_v of_o be_v censure_v by_o weak_a and_o wicked_a man_n for_o leave_v it_o be_v obstinacy_n not_o constancy_n it_o be_v the_o walk_n on_o steady_o to_o hell_n in_o compliance_n to_o our_o acquaintance_n for_o it_o be_v not_o only_o make_v reason_n useless_a but_o do_v despite_n to_o the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n deny_v the_o holy_a jesus_n while_o we_o pretend_v to_o profess_v he_o and_o put_v he_o to_o open_a shame_n to_o secure_a one_o own_o reputation_n whereas_o if_o man_n consider_v thing_n impartial_o if_o they_o reflect_v as_o they_o ought_v to_o do_v upon_o the_o majesty_n of_o that_o god_n who_o they_o have_v offend_v how_o much_o his_o honour_n and_o glory_n suffer_v by_o any_o wickedness_n but_o especial_o by_o foul_a apostasy_n and_o enormous_a crime_n how_o the_o save_v name_n of_o jesus_n be_v expose_v to_o the_o blasphemy_n of_o atheist_n and_o infidel_n while_o people_n embrace_v such_o doctrine_n as_o make_v void_a his_o cross_n and_o render_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o covenant_n shed_v there_o a_o common_a or_o contemptible_a thing_n if_o i_o say_v they_o will_v be_v sensible_a of_o this_o then_o sure_a the_o least_o that_o they_o can_v do_v will_v be_v to_o acknowledge_v public_o that_o they_o be_v so_o in_o quarrel_n which_o happen_v between_o one_o another_o before_o company_n to_o ask_v forgiveness_n in_o private_a be_v not_o look_v upon_o as_o sufficient_a satisfaction_n but_o this_o must_v be_v as_o public_a at_o least_o as_o the_o injury_n be_v alas_o shall_v we_o proceed_v so_o nice_o in_o the_o little_a mistake_n between_o brethren_n and_o fellow_n christian_n and_o yet_o scruple_n to_o do_v any_o thing_n of_o this_o nature_n after_o we_o have_v be_v guilty_a of_o the_o great_a sin_n of_o desert_v or_o rebel_a against_o the_o most_o high_a and_o most_o holy_a god_n the_o use_n of_o this_o be_v twofold_a 1._o that_o since_o man_n be_v so_o general_o averse_a so_o very_a much_o ashamed_a to_o own_o their_o error_n and_o this_o still_o the_o more_o the_o great_a those_o error_n be_v where_o people_n break_v through_o these_o difficulty_n to_o own_o in_o the_o face_n of_o the_o world_n error_n of_o the_o gross_a kind_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v satisfy_v of_o their_o sincerity_n and_o conclude_v with_o ourselves_o that_o they_o do_v that_o upon_o mature_a deliberation_n and_o firm_a resolution_n which_o they_o choose_v to_o do_v before_o so_o many_o witness_n 2._o that_o what_o be_v so_o do_v and_o must_v be_v so_o acceptable_a to_o god_n aught_o to_o raise_v our_o value_n and_o esteem_v for_o such_o person_n and_o restore_v they_o as_o well_o in_o justice_n to_o themselves_o as_o for_o the_o encouragement_n of_o other_o not_o only_o to_o our_o good_a opinion_n but_o our_o friendship_n and_o affection_n for_o who_o be_v there_o that_o do_v real_o fear_n god_n himself_o that_o will_v not_o run_v forth_o in_o holy_a joy_n to_o meet_v any_o mistake_a christian_a return_v to_o his_o duty_n that_o will_v not_o embrace_v he_o with_o the_o most_o tonder_v compassion_n and_o love_n and_o praise_n and_o magnify_v with_o he_o the_o father_n of_o mercy_n forasmuch_o as_o this_o their_o brother_n be_v dead_a but_o be_v alive_a again_o be_v lose_v but_o be_v sound_a this_o i_o be_o persuade_v every_o one_o will_v glad_o do_v when_o they_o consider_v attentive_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o benefit_n receive_v which_o be_v our_o 3d._a point_n the_o most_o important_a indeed_o of_o all_o include_v in_o these_o word_n what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o my_o soul_n as_o this_o concern_v the_o psalmist_n the_o benefit_n for_o which_o he_o praise_n god_n be_v as_o may_v be_v see_v by_o the_o verse_n follow_v god_n accept_n of_o his_o humiliation_n and_o prayer_n and_o restore_a he_o to_o the_o peace_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n but_o to_o bring_v this_o direct_o to_o the_o case_n in_o hand_n namely_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o mercy_n which_o this_o person_n have_v receive_v together_o with_o these_o other_o his_o friend_n and_o acquaintance_n here_o present_a and_o to_o move_v you_o to_o join_v with_o they_o in_o praise_v of_o god_n according_o it_o will_v be_v necessary_a to_o show_v you_o the_o greatness_n of_o that_o danger_n which_o they_o have_v be_v in_o and_o the_o monstrous_a error_n which_o the_o people_n call_v quaker_n with_o who_o they_o late_o join_v be_v fall_v into_o concern_v the_o fundamental_a article_n of_o our_o faith_n this_o will_v be_v do_v most_o fair_o and_o impartial_o by_o quote_v to_o you_o their_o own_o word_n in_o several_a remarkable_a passage_n take_v out_o of_o such_o book_n as_o be_v write_v by_o their_o first_o or_o chief_a teacher_n and_o be_v still_o own_a by_o they_o such_o i_o say_v as_o i_o have_v peruse_v
