true_a and_o certain_a âât_n be_v they_o never_o believe_v so_o though_o conscience_n speak_v true_a yet_o man_n follow_v it_o not_o and_o therefore_o it_o become_v âent_a when_o it_o be_v not_o

what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n second_o this_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n consist_v in_o two_o thing_n first_o in_o want_n of_o comfort_n it_o can_v apply_v to_o
itself_o neither_o the_o promise_n of_o this_o life_n nor_o of_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v conscience_n cry_v this_o belong_v not_o to_o i_o this_o mercy_n this_o comfort_n be_v not_o my_o portion_n second_o in_o a_o terror_n and_o anguish_n of_o mind_n from_o these_o three_o head_n 1._o from_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n 2._o from_o the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n wrath_n 3._o from_o

when_o they_o have_v sin_v against_o god_n their_o conscience_n be_v whip_v 1._o with_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n they_o see_v they_o be_v naked_a gen._n 3.7_o 2._o with_o the_o apprehension_n of_o

say_v adam_n verse_n 10._o this_o three-stringed_n whip_v you_o may_v see_v also_o be_v upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o cain_n after_o he_o have_v slay_v his_o brother_n his_o conscience_n be_v whip_v 1._o with_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n my_o sin_n be_v great_a âhen_n can_v be_v forgive_v 2._o with_o the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n wrath_n from_o thy_o face_n o_o lord_n be_o i_o hide_v 3._o with_o the_o expectation_n of_o death_n and_o of_o judgement_n it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o every_o one_o that_o find_v i_o shall_v slay_v i_o thus_o i_o have_v show_v you_o what_o a_o trouble_a conscience_n be_v the_o degree_n of_o a_o trouble_a conscience_n ii_o the_o next_o thing_n i_o promise_v to_o show_v be_v the_o degree_n of_o a_o trouble_a conscience_n a_o trouble_a conscience_n have_v divers_a degree_n for_o some_o conscience_n be_v more_o trouble_v than_o other_o some_o 1._o the_o first_o degree_n be_v such_o a_o degree_n as_o may_v be_v in_o god_n child_n and_o this_o arise_v not_o so_o much_o from_o the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n wrath_n as_o from_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n their_o conscience_n grieve_v anâ_n be_v trouble_v to_o think_v that_o they_o have_v sin_v and_o offend_v the_o lord_n god_n thuâ_n we_o see_v david_n can_v not_o be_v at_o quiet_a although_o nathan_n have_v tell_v he_o from_o goâ_n that_o his_o sin_n be_v forgive_v yet_o his_o conscience_n still_o trouble_v he_o 51.4_o psal_n 51.4_o against_o the_o only_a have_v i_o sin_v and_o do_v this_o evil_a iâ_n thy_o sight_n say_v he_o i_o grant_v the_o conscience_n of_o god_n child_n be_v trouble_v aâ_n the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n anger_n but_o than_o it_o be_v his_o fatherly_a anger_n not_o the_o anger_n of_o a_o enemy_n though_o for_o a_o sââ_n they_o may_v seem_v to_o apprehend_v that_o too_o yet_o most_o it_o be_v for_o that_o they_o have_v provoke_v their_o love_a father_n to_o anger_n against_o they_o a_o father_n may_v be_v angry_a with_o his_o child_n out_o of_o love_n and_o so_o the_o lord_n may_v be_v with_o his_o dear_a child_n the_o lord_n be_v angry_a with_o i_o too_o say_v moses_n deut._n 1.37_o o_o let_v not_o my_o lord_n be_v angry_a say_v abraham_n the_o father_n of_o the_o faithful_a o_o god_n of_o host_n 80.4_o psal_n 80.4_o how_o long_o will_v thou_o be_v angry_a with_o thy_o people_n that_o pray_v say_v the_o psalmist_n sometime_o âhe_v lord_n be_v angry_a with_o the_o prayer_n of_o his_o people_n but_o it_o be_v in_o love_n because_o he_o will_v have_v they_o pray_v better_o and_o obey_v better_o and_o look_v to_o their_o stand_a âetter_n now_o the_o conscience_n of_o god_n people_n be_v very_o much_o trouble_v when_o âhe_n lord_n be_v thus_o angry_a with_o they_o 2._o the_o second_o degree_n of_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n be_v such_o as_o be_v in_o the_o wicked_a ând_v yet_o not_o altogether_o without_o hope_n the_o conscience_n be_v trouble_v but_o yet_o so_o âs_v it_o conceive_v hope_v god_n be_v merciful_a and_o christ_n die_v for_o poor_a sinner_n âc_z thus_o many_o a_o wicked_a man_n be_v trouble_v and_o affright_v in_o conscience_n not_o âor_a sin_n but_o for_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n against_o it_o yet_o he_o conceive_v for_o the_o present_a that_o the_o sin_n be_v pardonable_a and_o may_v be_v forgive_v christ_n may_v forgive_v god_n may_v pardon_v it_o be_v indeed_o but_o a_o poor_a ground_n of_o hope_n &_o comfort_n upon_o possibility_n but_o yet_o this_o lighten_v the_o trouble_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n and_o it_o may_v be_v within_o a_o while_n shake_v it_o quite_o off_o like_o the_o wicked_a jew_n isa_n 57.10_o who_o be_v worry_v and_o weary_v most_o grievous_o yet_o they_o say_v not_o there_o be_v no_o hope_n there_o may_v be_v much_o horror_n and_o disquiet_n in_o these_o conscience_n for_o a_o time_n but_o there_o be_v a_o high_a degree_n yet_o a_o worse_a trouble_a conscience_n then_o this_o 3._o the_o three_o degree_n of_o a_o trouble_a conscience_n be_v when_o it_o be_v for_o the_o present_a altogether_o hopeless_a such_o a_o conscience_n as_o be_v swallow_v up_o in_o despair_n when_o man_n think_v of_o their_o manifold_a sin_n of_o the_o direful_a wrath_n of_o god_n of_o the_o dreadful_a torment_n of_o hell_n for_o everâ_n their_o conscience_n make_v they_o despair_v of_o all_o hope_n or_o possibility_n of_o avoid_v this_o bring_v such_o thought_n as_o these_o whaâ_n a_o deal_n of_o time_n have_v i_o spend_v in_o sin_n wherein_o i_o may_v have_v make_v my_o peace_n with_o god_n anâ_n have_v prevent_v all_o this_o what_o a_o

for_o the_o present_a or_o the_o future_a like_o the_o wicked_a man_n which_o eliphaz_n speak_v of_o aug._n desperatio_fw-la est_fw-la homicida_fw-la animae_fw-la aug._n he_o believe_v not_o that_o
