a_o tender_a invitation_n unto_o all_o those_o that_o want_v peace_n with_o god_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o burden_n of_o sin_n that_o keep_v they_o from_o acceptance_n with_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o from_o a_o assurance_n of_o salvation_n though_o it_o be_v very_o desirable_a to_o they_o oh_o it_o be_v the_o weary_a and_o heavy_a lade_v that_o he_o tender_v rest_n unto_o and_o they_o that_o take_v heed_n to_o his_o good_a spirit_n which_o be_v light_n and_o leave_v off_o that_o which_o it_o condemn_v and_o follow_v its_o instruction_n they_o obtain_v the_o way_n of_o life_n and_o he_o become_v their_o shepherd_n and_o they_o hear_v his_o voice_n and_o a_o stranger_n they_o will_v not_o hear_v but_o they_o follow_v he_o and_o he_o feed_v they_o with_o that_o which_o the_o stranger_n to_o his_o voice_n and_o hireling_n shepherd_n can_v attain_v unto_o by_o all_o their_o art_n or_o part_n external_a but_o it_o come_v to_o be_v enjoy_v by_o faith_n in_o christ_n jesus_n that_o give_v victory_n over_o sin_n and_o therefore_o its_o time_n for_o all_o people_n to_o consider_v and_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v to_o try_v and_o examine_v their selve_o whether_o they_o be_v in_o the_o true_a faith_n or_o no_o for_o there_o be_v no_o true_a faith_n but_o that_o which_o stand_v in_o the_o almighty_a power_n and_o that_o give_v victory_n over_o the_o power_n of_o darkness_n and_o without_o this_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n as_o it_o be_v leave_v upon_o record_n in_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n so_o all_o be_v to_o believe_v in_o the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n and_o have_v enlighten_v every_o one_o that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n as_o say_v the_o scripture_n and_o in_o the_o universal_a love_n of_o god_n he_o give_v his_o son_n for_o a_o light_n to_o enlighten_v the_o gentile_n and_o to_o be_v salvation_n unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o he_o die_v for_o all_o and_o his_o love_n so_o far_o extend_v unto_o all_o both_o male_a and_o female_a that_o he_o will_v have_v none_o to_o perish_v but_o that_o all_o by_o turn_v to_o his_o good_a spirit_n may_v be_v save_v from_o all_o that_o the_o evil_a spirit_n lead_v into_o for_o whosoever_o follow_v the_o leading_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n who_o be_v give_v for_o a_o leader_n of_o his_o people_n he_o lead_v they_o in_o the_o path_n of_o righteousness_n and_o as_o they_o come_v to_o be_v servant_n of_o righteousness_n they_o come_v to_o be_v free_a from_o sin_n but_o john_n say_v in_o his_o epistle_n that_o the_o servant_n of_o sin_n be_v free_a from_o righteousness_n and_o they_o that_o commit_v sin_n be_v of_o the_o devil_n for_o he_o be_v the_o original_n of_o sin_n but_o christ_n jesus_n be_v the_o original_n of_o the_o pure_a and_o holy_a undefiled_a religion_n that_o keep_v from_o the_o evil_n of_o the_o world_n which_o be_v pride_n adultery_n lie_v cheat_a and_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n and_o other_o spot_n that_o those_o be_v stain_v with_o who_o be_v not_o acquaint_v wi●h_v he_o that_o say_v wisdom_n lead_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o path_n of_o judgement_n ●o_o teach_v they_o that_o love_v i_o to_o inherit_v substance_n there_o be_v much_o talk_n of_o love_v he_o but_o few_o incline_v to_o keep_v his_o command_n and_o much_o talk_n of_o his_o fear_n but_o little_o stand_v in_o awe_n so_o as_o not_o to_o offend_v he_o but_o so_o far_o be_v many_o from_o take_v heed_n unto_o the_o measure_n of_o his_o spirit_n of_o light_n as_o he_o have_v place_v in_o their_o heart_n that_o they_o do_v not_o know_v it_o lead_v they_o to_o the_o heart_n cleanse_v fear_n for_o if_o they_o do_v how_o can_v they_o plead_v for_o sin_n so_o long_o as_o they_o remain_v in_o these_o body_n whereas_o it_o have_v be_v say_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o leave_v upon_o scripture_n record_n that_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v as_o a_o fountain_n of_o life_n to_o depart_v from_o the_o snare_n of_o death_n and_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o true_a wisdom_n and_o a_o good_a understanding_n have_v all_o they_o that_o follow_v after_o it_o for_o they_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n and_o it_o cleanse_v the_o heart_n and_o keep_v it_o clean_o according_a to_o the_o testimony_n as_o the_o scripture_n bear_v record_n of_o and_o therefore_o unto_o it_o i_o recommend_v all_o people_n that_o all_o may_v have_v the_o privilege_n of_o it_o that_o their_o heart_n may_v be_v cleanse_v for_o it_o be_v well_o know_v there_o be_v no_o repentance_n in_o the_o grave_a but_o as_o death_n leave_v righteous_a judgement_n will_v find_v and_o therefore_o let_v the_o long_o suffer_v and_o patience_n of_o the_o lord_n lead_v to_o repentance_n such_o a_o repentance_n that_o need_v no_o repent_v of_o a_o change_n of_o the_o heart_n abstain_v and_o refrain_v from_o every_o appearance_n of_o evil_n this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o lord_n have_v long_o wait_v for_o and_o do_v yet_o wait_v to_o be_v good_a and_o gracious_a unto_o all_o those_o that_o confess_v and_o forsake_v their_o evil_a thought_n word_n and_o work_n and_o they_o shall_v sure_o find_v mercy_n with_o he_o and_o be_v acquaint_v with_o he_o and_o feel_v acceptance_n with_o he_o and_o know_v the_o work_n of_o his_o sanctify_a power_n to_o sanctify_v throughout_o in_o body_n soul_n and_o spirit_n that_o the_o work_n of_o sanctification_n may_v not_o be_v to_o do_v when_o the_o messenger_n of_o death_n will_v not_o be_v deny_v for_o than_o it_o will_v be_v too_o late_o to_o work_v out_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a and_o therefore_o it_o will_v be_v good_a for_o all_o to_o consider_v how_o good_a the_o lord_n be_v in_o that_o he_o have_v consider_v the_o frailty_n of_o all_o flesh_n and_o have_v give_v unto_o every_o one_o a_o measure_n of_o his_o good_a spirit_n to_o help_v our_o infirmity_n and_o to_o teach_v we_o but_o if_o we_o neglect_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n we_o shall_v be_v unexcusable_a in_o the_o day_n of_o account_n and_o he_o will_v be_v clear_a of_o we_o all_o and_o therefore_o let_v all_o be_v diligent_a to_o here_o the_o word_n of_o reconciliation_n that_o the_o work_v thereof_o may_v be_v experience_v for_o it_o beget_v again_o unto_o god_n those_o that_o be_v afar_o off_o and_o when_o the_o work_n of_o regeneration_n be_v witness_v and_o the_o birth_n of_o the_o water_n of_o life_n and_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n then_o the_o new_a creature_n that_o avail_v with_o god_n come_v to_o be_v in_o unity_n and_o peace_n with_o he_o and_o then_o the_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n bear_v witness_n to_o the_o spirit_n of_o such_o that_o they_o be_v the_o child_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o except_o a_o be_v bear_v again_o there_o can_v be_v no_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n for_o the_o first_o birth_n can_v enter_v in_o the_o first_o adam_n nature_n all_o be_v dead_a but_o they_o that_o be_v beget_v again_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n power_n as_o the_o scripture_n testify_v if_o they_o come_v to_o be_v change_v into_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o second_o adam_n the_o lord_n from_o heaven_n the_o quicken_a spirit_n in_o he_o all_o such_o be_v make_v alive_a and_o as_o they_o live_v in_o his_o fear_n and_o do_v not_o grieve_v his_o spirit_n their_o sufficiency_n be_v in_o the_o engraft_a word_n of_o his_o grace_n that_o be_v able_a to_o save_v and_o in_o the_o same_o do_v witness_v preservation_n as_o in_o the_o day_n of_o old_a it_o be_v the_o same_o that_o david_n hide_v in_o his_o heart_n that_o he_o may_v not_o sin_v against_o the_o lord_n and_o it_o be_v as_o a_o lantern_n unto_o his_o foot_n and_o a_o light_n unto_o his_o path_n and_o so_o it_o be_v now_o bless_a be_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n unto_o they_o that_o be_v true_o watchful_a in_o it_o but_o those_o that_o be_v obey_v the_o power_n of_o darkness_n break_v the_o command_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o it_o be_v leave_v upon_o scripture_n reord_n that_o he_o do_v not_o say_v only_o unto_o one_o but_o unto_o all_o watch_z and_o sure_o it_o be_v as_o much_o need_n as_o ever_o for_o we_o to_o keep_v a_o narrow_a watch_n and_o that_o in_o the_o light_n for_o our_o soul_n enemy_n work_v always_o in_o the_o dark_a and_o except_o we_o keep_v a_o continual_a watch_n over_o our_o heart_n in_o that_o which_o do_v discover_v his_o snare_n we_o can_v escape_v and_o so_o let_v all_o that_o have_v any_o sense_n that_o it_o be_v their_o duty_n to_o wait_v upon_o the_o lord_n be_v careful_a to_o keep_v the_o command_n of_o watchfulness_n that_o the_o enemy_n nor_o any_o of_o his_o instrument_n do_v not_o prevent_v from_o wait_v in_o stillness_n upon_o the_o lord_n for_o he_o do_v renew_v the_o strength_n of_o they_o that_o do_v true_o wait_v upon_o he_o and_o have_v say_v that_o they_o shall_v run_v and_o not_o be_v weary_a and_o walk_v and_o not_o faint_a and_o now_o he_o be_v fulfil_v the_o scripture_n wherein_o it_o be_v say_v the_o child_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v teach_v of_o the_o lord_n and_o they_o shall_v be_v establish_v in_o righteousness_n and_o great_a shall_v be_v their_o peace_n oh_o let_v all_o that_o want_v it_o harken_v unto_o the_o true_a shepherd_n of_o the_o little_a flock_n for_o who_o the_o kingdom_n be_v prepare_v who_o incourage_v they_o and_o bid_v they_o fear_v not_o though_o the_o woolfish_a destroyer_n be_v nigh_o unto_o they_o yet_o he_o be_v the_o overseer_n and_o in_o all_o trial_n and_o exercise_n he_o be_v their_o preservation_n and_o they_o that_o have_v be_v exercise_v deep_o and_o try_v thorough_o they_o can_v tell_v of_o his_o wonderful_a work_n and_o have_v cause_n to_o speak_v well_o of_o his_o most_o worthy_a name_n and_o to_o invite_v other_o to_o come_v and_o taste_v and_o see_v for_o themselves_o how_o good_a the_o lord_n be_v in_o that_o he_o give_v all_o a_o time_n of_o tender_a visitation_n oh_o that_o people_n will_v but_o consider_v it_o before_o it_o be_v too_o late_a that_o while_o the_o good_a spirit_n of_o light_n be_v strive_v their_o heart_n may_v be_v affect_v with_o it_o and_o join_v to_o it_o for_o it_o will_v not_o always_o strive_v and_o therefore_o let_v such_o as_o can_v not_o come_v into_o obedience_n because_o of_o suffering_n now_o consider_v how_o good_a the_o lord_n be_v in_o that_o he_o have_v calm_v the_o storm_n of_o

for_o it_o their_o suffering_n be_v too_o hard_a for_o we_o to_o bear_v else_o we_o shall_v own_v it_o oh_o let_v all_o such_o true_o consider_v the_o wonderful_a love_n of_o god_n that_o his_o
