verse_n 7_o 8._o let_v israel_n hope_n in_o the_o lord_n for_z etc._n etc._n you_o hear_v that_o these_o two_o verse_n do_v contain_v the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o psalm_n wherein_o after_o that_o the_o psalmist_n in_o the_o first_o 6_o verse_n have_v be_v wrestle_v partly_o with_o plunge_a perplexity_n represent_v under_o the_o notion_n of_o depth_n vers_fw-la 1.2_o partly_o with_o the_o conscience_n of_o guilt_n verse_n 3.4_o and_o partly_o with_o the_o delay_n of_o comfort_n and_o a_o outgate_n verse_n 5.6_o after_o that_o i_o say_v the_o psalmist_n come_v to_o get_v some_o issue_n and_o outgate_v whereof_o he_o give_v not_o a_o direct_a and_o express_a account_n but_o any_o good_a he_o have_v get_v he_o present_o make_v it_o appear_v in_o good_a news_n to_o israel_n he_o have_v

only_o be_v mercy_n and_o plenteous_a redemption_n with_o he_o but_o he_o shall_v redeem_v israel_n from_o all_o his_o iniquity_n for_o the_o exhortation_n i_o speak_v to_o it_o at_o length_n and_o at_o the_o last_o occasion_n i_o break_v in_o upon_o the_o motive_n the_o instruction_n to_o be_v gather_v from_o which_o i_o reduce_v to_o two_o general_a head_n 1._o something_o suppose_v concern_v

their_o hope_n for_o the_o first_o that_o which_o be_v suppose_v in_o the_o word_n it_o may_v again_o be_v reduce_v to_o these_o two_o head_n of_o doctrine_n 1._o that_o the_o man_n call_v and_o allow_v to_o hope_v in_o god_n be_v one_o that_o be_v acquaint_v with_o misery_n in_o himself_o and_o be_v put_v to_o look_v out_o to_o what_o be_v in_o god_n or_o with_o he_o to_o do_v his_o turn_n for_o with_o the_o lord_n there_o be_v mercy_n that_o there_o be_v mercy_n with_o god_n imply_n that_o the_o man_n that_o be_v call_v and_o allow_v to_o hope_v in_o god_n be_v in_o himself_o miserable_a and_o put_v to_o look_v out_o to_o god_n for_o mercy_n and_o so_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o bless_a and_o sure_a character_n of_o a_o person_n that_o be_v call_v and_o allow_v to_o hope_v in_o god_n that_o he_o be_v keep_v humble_a not_o conceity_n nor_o dream_v of_o any_o good_a in_o himself_o and_o the_o near_o he_o be_v to_o the_o dust_n he_o have_v the_o more_o warrant_n to_o

and_o consequent_o to_o the_o man_n who_o heart_n be_v not_o upright_o in_o he_o hab._n 2.4_o and_o further_o the_o man_n that_o be_v call_v to_o hope_n and_o allow_v to_o hope_n in_o the_o humble_v sense_n of_o his_o misery_n he_o be_v put_v to_o look_v without_o himself_o to_o what_o be_v in_o god_n or_o with_o god_n for_o he_o he_o be_v call_v to_o hope_v on_o the_o account_n of_o mercy_n in_o relation_n to_o his_o misery_n it_o intimat_n that_o the_o humble_a sensible_a man_n the_o israel_n of_o god_n can_v never_o be_v undo_v so_o long_o as_o god_n be_v to_o the_o fore_n and_o there_o be_v enough_o in_o he_o to_o do_v his_o turn_n though_o he_o be_v miserable_a and_o want_n that_o he_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o yet_o if_o it_o be_v in_o god_n he_o shall_v not_o want_v if_o mercy_n

two_o of_o which_o i_o have_v speak_v to_o in_o the_o forenoon_n to_o wit_n that_o which_o be_v suppon_v here_o that_o god_n be_v a_o marker_n of_o iniquity_n and_o what_o it_o import_v and_o second_o that_o which_o be_v propose_v on_o this_o supposition_n that_o if_o god_n shall_v mark_v iniquity_n as_o be_v explain_v man_n even_o the_o most_o godly_a man_n can_v not_o stand_v where_o somewhat_o be_v say_v to_o the_o importance_n of_o that_o phrase_n now_o i_o proceed_v in_o explication_n of_o the_o point_n from_o the_o text_n for_o to_o that_o i_o confine_v myself_o in_o other_o four_o particular_n the_o first_o and_o three_o in_o order_n shall_v be_v this_o that_o this_o assertion_n that_o man_n can_v stand_v before_o god_n mark_v iniquity_n be_v of_o infallible_a verity_n a_o most_o certain_a and_o infallible_a truth_n it_o be_v not_o a_o bugbear_n to_o affright_v child_n but_o the_o infallible_a truth_n of_o god_n this_o be_v hint_v at_o in_o the_o text_n partly_o in_o the_o psalmist_n his_o propose_v the_o matter_n to_o god_n if_o thou_o lord_n shall_v mark_v iniquity_n o_o lord_n who_o shall_v stand_v he_o propose_v it_o to_o god_n who_o know_v this_o matter_n better_o than_o any_o other_o and_o who_o be_v supreme_a judge_n in_o the_o matter_n without_o who_o determination_n a_o decreet_a in_o our_o own_o favour_n will_v signify_v nothing_o at_o all_o it_o import_v o_o lord_n let_v man_n dream_v what_o they_o will_v of_o their_o stand_n thou_o know_v that_o none_o can_v stand_v if_o thou_o shall_v mark_v iniquity_n to_o punish_v it_o and_o particular_o the_o infallible_a verity_n of_o this_o assertion_n may_v be_v gather_v from_o the_o way_n of_o propose_v it_o and_o that_o be_v by_o way_n of_o question_n who_o shall_v stand_v which_o question_n be_v a_o very_a peremptory_a denial_n of_o the_o thing_n question_v for_o so_o the_o like_a question_n be_v resolve_v job_n 14.4_o who_o can_v bring_v a_o clean_a thing_n out_o of_o a_o unclean_a not_o one_o yea_o the_o propose_v of_o it_o by_o way_n of_o question_n who_o shall_v stand_v do_v import_n a_o defiance_n to_o any_o to_o attempt_v it_o or_o to_o succeed_v in_o their_o attempt_n and_o indignation_n at_o the_o presumption_n of_o any_o that_o shall_v dream_v of_o stand_v before_o god_n mark_v iniquity_n but_o in_o the_o four_o place_n as_o this_o assertion_n be_v of_o infallible_a verity_n so_o it_o be_v of_o universal_a verity_n this_o be_v hold_v out_o in_o the_o question_n for_o the_o question_n be_v who_o shall_v stand_v that_o be_v as_o the_o parallel_a question_n be_v answer_v job_n 14.4_o none_o at_o all_o good_a or_o bad_a if_o thou_o lord_n shall_v mark_v iniquity_n none_o shall_v stand_v for_o the_o psalmist_n here_o a_o godly_a man_n be_v take_v in_o himself_o with_o other_o as_o a_o man_n that_o can_v not_o stand_v himself_o without_o pardon_n and_o so_o the_o phrase_n be_v psal_n 143.2_o enter_v not_o into_o judgement_n with_o thy_o servant_n for_o in_o thy_o sight_n shall_v no_o man_n live_v be_v justify_v the_o best_a of_o man_n that_o be_v come_v of_o adam_n by_o ordinary_a generation_n shall_v not_o be_v justify_v if_o thou_o mark_v iniquity_n hence_o in_o scripture_n it_o be_v clear_a that_o saintship_n consist_v not_o in_o sinlessness_n but_o in_o sincerity_n for_o for_o original_a guilt_n in_o that_o job_n 14.4_o who_o can_v bring_v a_o clean_a thing_n out_o of_o a_o unclean_a not_o one_o and_o for_o a_o man_n endeavour_n after_o he_o be_v bring_v in_o to_o god_n and_o be_v wrestle_v with_o corruption_n to_o have_v these_o purge_v out_o say_v solomon_n prov._n 20.9_o who_o can_v say_v i_o have_v make_v my_o heart_n clean_o i_o be_o pure_a from_o my_o sin_n eccles_n 7.20_o there_o be_v not_o a_o just_a man_n upon_o earth_n that_o do_v good_a and_o sin_v not_o but_o as_o it_o be_v jam._n 3.2_o in_o many_o thing_n we_o offend_v all_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o saintship_n do_v not_o consist_v in_o sinlessness_n but_o in_o sincerity_n neither_o do_v saintship_n consist_v in_o the_o saint_n their_o sin_n not_o deserve_v condemnation_n or_o in_o their_o be_v able_a to_o stand_v though_o they_o have_v sin_v but_o in_o their_o sin_n be_v pardon_v hence_o you_o will_v find_v they_o sad_o exercise_v in_o wrestle_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o guilt_n upon_o their_o gross_a out-breaking_n as_o david_n psal_n 51._o you_o have_v they_o pray_v for_o the_o pardon_n of_o great_a iniquity_n psal_n 25.11_o for_o thy_o name_n sake_n pardon_v my_o iniquity_n for_o it_o be_v great_a you_o have_v

they_o attain_v to_o a_o song_n of_o thanksgiving_n through_o jesus_n so_o that_o not_o only_o do_v the_o text_n hold_v out_o the_o infallible_a verity_n of_o this_o truth_n but_o the_o universal_a verity_n of_o it_o that_o if_o god_n mark_v iniquity_n none_o can_v stand_v the_o 5_o thing_n i_o gather_v from_o the_o text_n be_v that_o the_o infallible_a and_o universal_a verity_n of_o this_o assertion_n that_o if_o god_n mark_v iniquity_n none_o can_v stand_v may_v be_v gather_v and_o close_v with_o if_o man_n be_v eye_v god_n much_o this_o i_o gather_v from_o the_o text_n where_o the_o

in_o in_o the_o own_o place_n when_o i_o speak_v of_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n but_o here_o it_o be_v to_o make_v this_o truth_n out_o that_o serious_a and_o frequent_a repeat_v thought_n of_o god_n be_v a_o mean_a to_o give_v folk_n a_o right_a sense_n of_o the_o desert_n of_o sin_n and_o to_o make_v out_o this_o consider_v partly_o that_o when_o we_o serious_o think_v of_o god_n we_o know_v that_o he_o be_v omniscient_a to_o find_v out_o that_o which_o be_v hide_v from_o the_o world_n omniscient_a to_o find_v they_o guilty_a that_o be_v innocent_a to_o other_o omniscient_a to_o know_v more_o of_o we_o than_o we_o know_v of_o ourselves_o a_o consideration_n that_o john_n will_v have_v we_o mark_v 1_o joh._n 3.20_o if_o our_o heart_n condemn_v we_o god_n be_v great_a than_o our_o

it_o serve_v to_o refute_v the_o perfectist_n that_o pretend_v to_o sinlesness_n it_o be_v the_o damnable_a error_n of_o the_o pelagian_o that_o they_o affirm_v that_o as_o we_o have_v no_o guilt_n
