undoubted_a truth_n that_o every_o one_o continue_v to_o sin_n and_o so_o die_v shall_v die_v under_o a_o curse_n for_o his_o own_o sin_n though_o the_o sinner_n shall_v live_v to_o a_o hundred_o nay_o to_o many_o hundred_o year_n yet_o if_o he_o live_v and_o die_v a_o servant_n to_o his_o sin_n he_o shall_v die_v accurse_v and_o this_o we_o may_v be_v sufficient_o assure_v of_o by_o the_o

so_o that_o the_o serious_a and_o consider_a soul_n soon_o come_v to_o this_o conclusion_n that_o whoever_o do_v bear_v the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n he_o must_v die_v a_o curse_n for_o it_o and_o he_o need_v no_o other_o proof_n of_o it_o but_o this_o christ_n do_v bear_v guilt_n and_o this_o bring_v he_o to_o a_o curse_a death_n now_o than_o he_o begin_v to_o argue_v the_o case_n with_o himself_o can_v i_o continue_v in_o sin_n and_o not_o bear_v the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n can_v i_o yield_v myself_o a_o servant_n to_o sin_n and_o yet_o not_o be_v account_v a_o servant_n of_o sin_n can_v i_o do_v the_o work_n of_o iniquity_n and_o not_o be_v think_v by_o judicious_a and_o wise_a man_n a_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n how_o much_o more_o will_v the_o just_a and_o righteous_a god_n occount_v i_o so_o when_o i_o do_v any_o fact_n for_o which_o the_o law_n of_o man_n will_v call_v i_o to_o account_v can_v i_o do_v the_o fact_n and_o the_o law_n not_o impute_v it_o to_o i_o it_o be_v most_o sottish_a folly_n to_o continue_v in_o the_o service_n of_o sin_n and_o to_o flatter_v myself_o that_o i_o shall_v not_o be_v account_v a_o servant_n of_o sin_n or_o to_o hope_n i_o shall_v not_o be_v load_v with_o the_o guilt_n of_o my_o sin_n and_o it_o be_v no_o less_o folly_n to_o think_v that_o we_o may_v lie_v under_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n and_o yet_o not_o sink_v under_o the_o importable_a burden_n of_o a_o curse_n no_o no_o either_o i_o must_v leave_v my_o sin_v or_o i_o must_v die_v that_o death_n which_o of_o all_o be_v the_o most_o terrible_a i_o must_v be_v a_o curse_n

to_o convert_v and_o leave_v thy_o sin_n and_o let_v i_o tell_v thou_o it_o be_v death_n with_o a_o curse_n and_o consider_v thou_o whether_o thou_o can_v endure_v it_o and_o let_v i_o ask_v thou_o these_o few_o question_n 1._o do_v thou_o not_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v somewhat_o more_o in_o death_n when_o it_o be_v sharpen_v with_o this_o sharp_a and_o pierce_a sting_n do_v thou_o not_o

if_o thou_o will_v consider_v it_o now_o then_o say_v can_v thou_o content_o think_v of_o die_v for_o thy_o sin_n can_v thou_o think_v of_o do_v more_o than_o die_v for_o thy_o sin_n until_o that_o time_n be_v come_v wherein_o thou_o can_v say_v thou_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o suffer_v more_o than_o death_n for_o sin_n thou_o shall_v not_o be_v willing_a to_o serve_v sin_n any_o more_o in_o thy_o life_n i_o know_v when_o we_o come_v to_o die_v we_o shall_v judge_v sin_n unworthy_a of_o such_o a_o pledge_n of_o love_n or_o service_n as_o one_o pang_n or_o one_o fear_n or_o one_o sigh_n for_o its_o sake_n oh_o than_o we_o shall_v say_v he_o love_v sin_n too_o much_o who_o for_o sin_n sake_n add_v the_o least_o pang_n to_o death_n whatever_o thou_o do_v therefore_o leave_v to_o sin_n lest_o tlou_fw-mi add_v the_o misery_n of_o a_o curse_n to_o thy_o death_n 2._o let_v i_o ask_v thou_o be_v there_o no_o manner_n of_o die_v which_o be_v a_o terror_n to_o thou_o more_o than_o

the_o roman_a or_o as_o maximinus_n the_o bloody_a persecutor_n or_o as_o herod_n the_o great_a who_o story_n be_v better_a know_v to_o thou_o eat_v up_o of_o worm_n will_v not_o other_o be_v ready_a

he_o think_v then_o whether_o sin_n deserve_v so_o well_o that_o thou_o shall_v not_o only_o die_v but_o die_v a_o curse_n for_o it_o whether_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n in_o sin_n to_o fortify_v

a_o death_n of_o all_o most_o dreadful_a cease_v therefore_o to_o sin_n that_o thou_o be_v not_o a_o curse_n for_o thy_o sin_n four_o let_v it_o be_v consider_v after_o all_o this_o if_o this_o do_v not_o convince_v enough_o whether_o thou_o can_v be_v willing_a to_o die_v more_o than_o once_o for_o thy_o sin_n will_v not_o a_o thousand_o death_n one_o after_o another_o be_v too_o much_o to_o
