forbid_v and_o therefore_o absolve_v or_o bind_v no_o subject_n you_o know_v have_v this_o power_n to_o release_v or_o bind_v of_o himself_o but_o that_o be_v the_o royal_a prerogative_n of_o the_o king_n it_o be_v true_a if_o the_o word_n condemn_v we_o than_o our_o conscience_n may_v do_v so_o too_o and_o if_o the_o word_n absolve_v we_o so_o may_v our_o conscience_n too_o but_o this_o be_v virtute_fw-la prima_fw-la not_o virtute_fw-la propria_fw-la it_o be_v because_o the_o word_n do_v it_o not_o because_o conscience_n of_o itself_o without_o the_o word_n can_v do_v either_o right_o whence_o two_o thing_n arise_v to_o inform_v and_o direct_v we_o viz._n 1._o satan_n judgement_n of_o our_o usurp_v satan_n judge_n be_v but_o usurp_v estate_n be_v but_o usurp_a it_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o he_o to_o sit_v upon_o our_o soul_n it_o be_v against_o the_o law_n of_o nation_n that_o the_o same_o party_n shall_v be_v witness_n and_o judge_n and_o we_o may_v say_v to_o he_o true_o what_o the_o pharisee_n proud_o object_v to_o christ_n by_o what_o authority_n do_v he_o these_o thing_n or_o as_o they_o to_o moses_n who_o make_v thou_o a_o judge_n over_o we_o assure_o the_o enemy_n of_o our_o salvation_n be_v not_o to_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o it_o he_o be_v so_o malicious_o vow_v against_o our_o happiness_n it_o be_v most_o unfit_a for_o he_o to_o decide_v it_o and_o therefore_o though_o he_o usurp_v a_o judgement_n upon_o christian_n yet_o as_o david_n speak_v in_o another_o case_n thou_o lord_n will_v not_o leave_v the_o righteous_a when_o he_o be_v judge_v no_o assure_o satan_n shall_v one_o day_n be_v judge_v for_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o judge_n of_o god_n people_n and_o do_v you_o think_v that_o satan_n will_v give_v a_o true_a judgement_n unto_o we_o of_o our_o spiritual_a condition_n who_o dare_v give_v in_o false_a evidence_n before_o god_n himself_o of_o job_n and_o who_o be_v say_v to_o accuse_v the_o brethren_n before_o god_n day_n and_o night_n 2._o no_o testimony_n be_v to_o be_v admit_v which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o word_n believe_v not_o every_o spirit_n 1_o joh._n 4._o false_a all_o judgement_n of_o our_o estate_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o word_n be_v false_a 1._o but_o try_v the_o spirit_n whether_o they_o be_v of_o god_n the_o word_n must_v judge_v we_o another_o day_n &_o therefore_o it_o be_v to_o judge_v of_o we_o now_o satan_n judgement_n be_v usurp_v and_o our_o own_o be_v oft_o time_n erroneous_a as_o in_o wicked_a and_o presumptuous_a sinner_n who_o sentence_n well_o for_o their_o safety_n although_o god_n do_v proclaim_v and_o pronounce_v bitter_a woe_n unto_o they_o and_o as_o our_o judgement_n be_v oft_o time_n erroneous_a so_o be_v they_o in_o the_o time_n of_o distress_n suspicious_a and_o hasty_a we_o do_v not_o testify_v of_o ourselves_o with_o judgement_n clear_v and_o total_o inform_v by_o the_o word_n of_o all_o our_o estate_n but_o with_o judgement_n affect_v and_o distemper_v as_o david_n in_o his_o fit_n i_o be_o cast_v out_o of_o thy_o presence_n god_n do_v not_o cast_v he_o off_o but_o his_o distemper_a judgement_n do_v cast_v he_o out_o 2._o maintain_v the_o judgement_n of_o the_o word_n against_o all_o judgement_n when_o a_o man_n have_v thorough_o view_v and_o pierce_v into_o the_o secret_n of_o his_o heart_n and_o way_n by_o the_o inform_a light_n of_o god_n bless_a spirit_n and_o take_v his_o flesh_n and_o spirit_n asunder_o i_o mean_v his_o sin_n weakness_n grace_n and_o disposition_n and_o lay_v these_o with_o all_o he_o know_v of_o himself_o before_o the_o lord_n in_o a_o most_o sincere_a ingenuity_n so_o that_o if_o he_o be_v now_o to_o die_v he_o dare_v venture_v the_o eternal_a salvation_n of_o his_o soul_n with_o his_o god_n that_o he_o keep_v nothing_o back_o either_o of_o what_o be_v his_o own_o by_o nature_n or_o of_o what_o be_v god_n by_o grace_n if_o now_o the_o word_n decide_v for_o he_o that_o his_o condition_n be_v heavenly_a his_o heart_n be_v upright_o he_o be_v indeed_o one_o who_o be_v true_o interest_v in_o christ_n this_o man_n or_o woman_n shall_v now_o uphold_v this_o decisive_a testimony_n of_o the_o word_n lay_v it_o up_o as_o the_o great_a copy_n of_o his_o eternal_a salvation_n and_o in_o case_n of_o opposite_a verdict_n and_o testimony_n not_o to_o molest_v himself_o with_o reason_v and_o doubt_v but_o to_o preserve_v the_o authority_n of_o god_n testimony_n by_o believe_v and_o most_o upright_o walk_v with_o god_n in_o all_o the_o power_n of_o duty_n there_o yet_o remain_v two_o spring_n of_o doubt_n to_o be_v cure_v and_o then_o i_o have_v do_v with_o that_o subject_n 13._o the_o thirteen_o spring_n of_o doubt_n be_v the_o new_a rise_n of_o old_a sin_n this_o i_o tell_v you_o can_v not_o but_o amaze_v the_o soul_n to_o see_v the_o dead_a rise_n out_o of_o the_o grave_n again_o and_o to_o read_v the_o debt_n as_o if_o it_o be_v not_o yet_o cross_v it_o do_v exceed_o disquiet_v we_o about_o our_o spiritual_a condition_n now_o consider_v 1._o there_o be_v five_o time_n revive_v five_o time_n in_o which_o former_a sin_n may_v revive_v when_o we_o and_o our_o sin_n do_v meet_v 1._o one_o be_v the_o day_n of_o our_o legal_a humiliation_n when_o the_o law_n like_o search_a physic_n enter_v deep_a stir_v up_o the_o evil_a humour_n cast_v our_o sin_n into_o our_o very_a face_n and_o set_v they_o in_o order_n before_o we_o and_o reprove_v we_o for_o they_o with_o undeniable_a conviction_n and_o horror_n 2._o another_o be_v the_o day_n of_o our_o pierce_a affliction_n when_o the_o lord_n do_v send_v his_o messenger_n unto_o we_o of_o wrath_n cut_v off_o from_o we_o our_o delight_n tear_n away_o our_o joy_n cross_v we_o in_o our_o aim_n and_o we_o see_v god_n hew_v our_o friend_n from_o we_o our_o child_n from_o we_o our_o earthly_a delight_n and_o content_n for_o miserable_a evil_n be_v oft_o time_n a_o cause_n to_o make_v we_o see_v our_o sinful_a evil_n we_o do_v many_o time_n come_v to_o perceive_v our_o fault_n by_o our_o punishment_n as_o pharaoh_n do_v when_o the_o plague_n be_v on_o he_o i_o have_v do_v evil_a in_o not_o let_v the_o people_n go_v and_o balaam_n when_o he_o see_v the_o angel_n and_o hear_v he_o threaten_v i_o will_v now_o return_v and_o so_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n then_o see_v and_o confess_v their_o murmur_a and_o stubbornness_n when_o god_n send_v evil_a angel_n among_o they_o i_o some_o messenger_n of_o his_o wrath_n and_o displeasure_n 3._o a_o three_o be_v the_o time_n of_o some_o horrible_a and_o common_a judgement_n whether_o it_o be_v upon_o particular_a person_n or_o a_o nation_n interest_v in_o the_o same_o guilt_n of_o sin_n with_o ourselves_o for_o this_o be_v a_o time_n of_o common_a fire_n which_o rage_v and_o fly_v up_o and_o down_o make_v man_n run_v into_o their_o closert_n and_o bring_v out_o their_o conceal_a jewel_n so_o do_v common_a and_o extraordinary_a judgement_n return_v we_o into_o ourselves_o and_o give_v up_o unto_o we_o those_o our_o hide_a sin_n which_o we_o fear_v will_v draw_v the_o same_o fire_n of_o judicial_a wrath_n upon_o our_o own_o person_n i_o do_v not_o doubt_v but_o at_o the_o last_o great_a plague_n many_o of_o the_o sinful_a botch_n break_v out_o upon_o a_o fear_n lest_o that_o judicial_a botch_n shall_v have_v break_v in_o upon_o your_o body_n and_o house_n 4._o a_o four_o time_n be_v the_o time_n of_o death_n for_o though_o sin_n and_o a_o sinner_n real_o meet_v in_o all_o their_o course_n of_o life_n yet_o sense_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o sinner_n do_v not_o always_o meet_v until_o the_o day_n of_o death_n for_o death_n be_v a_o strict_a and_o unavoidable_a summons_n to_o give_v up_o our_o account_n and_o then_o the_o unjust_a steward_n must_v look_v about_o he_o how_o he_o shall_v answer_v his_o most_o just_a lord_n and_o master_n this_o time_n of_o meeting_n evident_o manifest_v itself_o to_o our_o own_o experience_n who_o though_o we_o have_v kindle_v our_o sin_n in_o the_o time_n of_o our_o health_n and_o strength_n yet_o have_v we_o not_o meet_v with_o the_o flash_n of_o they_o but_o in_o the_o time_n of_o sickness_n and_o weakness_n 5._o a_o last_o time_n of_o meeting_n be_v the_o day_n of_o judgement_n and_o this_o be_v a_o most_o certain_a and_o infallible_a time_n it_o be_v possible_a for_o a_o man_n to_o escape_v the_o legal_a meeting_n by_o conviction_n and_o the_o miserable_a meeting_n by_o affliction_n judgement_n and_o death_n itself_o for_o some_o die_n like_o nabal_n they_o live_v wretched_o and_o die_v sensles_o but_o at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n they_o and_o their_o sin_n must_v meet_v and_o shall_v because_o then_o the_o secret_n of_o all_o heart_n shall_v

if_o he_o forsake_v they_o the_o lord_n will_v pardon_v and_o show_v mercy_n again_o because_o that_o pardon_n be_v promise_v to_o actual_a repentance_n indefinite_o therefore_o let_v the_o sinner_n
