lord_n of_o host_n give_v they_o to_o understand_v that_o see_v they_o set_v so_o light_a by_o the_o admonition_n of_o the_o prophet_n there_o shall_v be_v leave_v they_o no_o time_n to_o repent_v in_o till_o he_o have_v destroy_v they_o but_o of_o all_o the_o place_n of_o scripture_n for_o this_o purpose_n let_v we_o see_v what_o the_o lord_n say_v to_o jerusalem_n by_o his_o prophet_n ezechiel_n because_o say_v he_o i_o will_v have_v purge_v thou_o and_o thou_o be_v not_o purge_v thou_o shall_v not_o be_v purge_v till_o i_o have_v cause_v my_o wrath_n to_o light_v upon_o thou_o mark_v this_o place_n well_o which_o may_v terrify_v our_o heart_n if_o we_o carry_v not_o the_o heart_n of_o tiger_n in_o which_o the_o lord_n testify_v not_o only_o to_o they_o but_o to_o we_o that_o when_o by_o all_o kind_a mean_n and_o love_a allurement_n he_o offer_v his_o favour_n and_o we_o obstinate_o refuse_v let_v we_o be_v sure_a of_o it_o when_o we_o will_v have_v mercy_n and_o favour_n from_o he_o though_o we_o beg_v it_o cry_n howl_v he_o will_v deny_v it_o us._n oh_o that_o the_o lamentable_a spectacle_n of_o some_o may_v be_v warning_n to_o we_o who_o in_o their_o life_n time_n have_v hear_v the_o lord_n by_o his_o minister_n call_v to_o they_o and_o entreat_v they_o to_o leave_v their_o sin_n chide_v they_o threaten_v they_o but_o all_o in_o vain_a they_o have_v stop_v their_o ear_n and_o harden_v their_o heart_n but_o be_v come_v to_o their_o bed_n of_o death_n and_o the_o time_n come_v they_o must_v depart_v this_o life_n i_o fear_v to_o a_o worse_o they_o have_v cry_v houl_v yea_o knock_v and_o beat_v their_o head_n to_o the_o bedpost_n myself_o be_v witness_n yet_o can_v not_o show_v any_o sign_n of_o receive_v one_o drop_n of_o comfort_n from_o the_o lord_n and_o have_v be_v exhort_v to_o pray_v and_o call_v on_o the_o lord_n for_o mercy_n can_v not_o say_v so_o much_o as_o the_o lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o i_o and_o what_o know_v we_o what_o our_o estate_n shall_v be_v if_o we_o wear_v out_o the_o time_n of_o mercy_n there_o be_v a_o time_n set_v we_o in_o which_o we_o may_v repent_v but_o be_v despise_v and_o outrun_v there_o be_v after_o no_o hour_n to_o obtain_v mercy_n and_o the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v special_o three_o reas_n 1_o the_o first_o take_v from_o god_n who_o because_o it_o proceed_v from_o his_o love_n to_o offer_v mercy_n it_o must_v needs_o stand_v with_o his_o justice_n to_o punish_v the_o wilful_a contempt_n of_o it_o with_o a_o perpetual_a denial_n of_o mercy_n reas_n 2_o the_o second_o from_o satan_n who_o by_o contemn_v and_o neglect_v the_o lord_n gracious_a offer_n of_o mercy_n get_v great_a advantage_n of_o we_o and_o hereby_o make_v a_o way_n for_o such_o sin_n as_o hardly_o in_o time_n we_o can_v repent_v we_o of_o reas_n 3_o the_o three_o be_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o sin_n which_o hatch_v three_o horrible_a sin_n for_o delay_n breed_v custom_n custom_n breed_v security_n and_o security_n breed_v impenitency_n a_o drunkard_n we_o see_v be_v more_o easy_o reclaim_v from_o it_o at_o the_o first_o then_o when_o he_o have_v get_v a_o custom_n of_o it_o and_o hence_o be_v it_o the_o lord_n by_o his_o prophet_n do_v note_v it_o a_o thing_n impossible_a in_o respect_n of_o humane_a power_n to_o leave_v those_o sin_n which_o be_v customablie_o commit_v say_v can_v the_o blackmoore_n change_v his_o skin_n 13.23_o jer._n 13.23_o or_o the_o leopard_n his_o spot_n then_o may_v you_o also_o do_v good_a that_o be_v accustom_v to_o do_v evil_a oh_o belove_a let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o despise_v the_o lord_n love_v and_o kind_a offer_n of_o mercy_n 2.12_o psalm_n 2.12_o lest_o he_o be_v angry_a and_o so_o we_o do_v perish_v in_o his_o wrath_n now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o use_n of_o this_o doctrine_n use_v 1_o you_o can_v deny_v but_o the_o lord_n have_v long_a time_n offer_v condition_n of_o peace_n and_o that_o he_o have_v send_v we_o his_o servant_n early_o and_o late_o to_o call_v we_o to_o entreat_v we_o to_o be_v reconcile_v to_o he_o he_o have_v stand_v long_o at_o the_o door_n knock_v to_o be_v let_v in_o but_o what_o of_o all_o this_o have_v not_o custom_n of_o sin_n breed_v security_n and_o security_n impenitency_n so_o that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v the_o date_n of_o god_n mercy_n be_v near_o at_o a_o end_n how_o shall_v we_o try_v this_o look_v in_o the_o course_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o so_o when_o the_o lord_n have_v long_o continue_v the_o mean_n of_o salvation_n and_o the_o people_n little_a or_o nothing_o profit_n by_o it_o and_o how_o may_v this_o terrify_v we_o who_o have_v enjoy_v his_o word_n in_o peace_n at_o hand_n now_o of_o 50._o year_n and_o who_o see_v not_o the_o little_a or_o no_o profit_n be_v come_v thereof_o and_o that_o this_o be_v so_o will_v appear_v if_o we_o examine_v it_o by_o these_o two_o thing_n that_o will_v follow_v where_o the_o people_n do_v profit_n by_o the_o mean_n that_o be_v knowledge_n and_o reformation_n of_o life_n and_o first_o as_o touch_v knowledge_n come_v to_o many_o in_o this_o city_n who_o have_v live_v some_o 20._o some_o 30._o some_o these_o 40._o year_n yet_o be_v very_o ignorant_a even_o in_o the_o principle_n of_o religion_n you_o can_v say_v it_o may_v be_v god_n make_v you_o christ_n redeem_v you_o etc._n etc._n but_o to_o what_o end_n do_v god_n make_v you_o or_o christ_n redeem_v you_o you_o know_v not_o but_o there_o be_v many_o as_o blind_a as_o beetle_n and_o as_o this_o be_v too_o true_a in_o your_o city_n so_o be_v it_o most_o lamentable_a in_o the_o country_n where_o you_o shall_v have_v in_o many_o place_n not_o one_o of_o twenty_o to_o yield_v a_o good_a reason_n why_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v damn_v yea_o they_o know_v no_o more_o the_o right_a way_n to_o salvation_n nor_o how_o they_o must_v be_v save_v if_o ever_o they_o be_v save_v then_o the_o very_a idiot_n that_o ever_o be_v bear_v and_o to_o say_v the_o truth_n how_o can_v they_o when_o they_o be_v content_a to_o be_v lead_v to_o hell_n as_o a_o man_n lead_v a_o dog_n in_o a_o string_n according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n if_o the_o blind_a lead_v the_o blind_a they_o shall_v both_o fall_v into_o the_o ditch_n so_o for_o the_o second_o point_n which_o be_v reformation_n of_o life_n i_o
