because_o in_o the_o end_n our_o worst_a enemy_n will_v be_v that_o in_o our_o own_o bosom_n but_o there_o be_v three_o case_n especial_o wherein_o it_o high_o concern_v man_n to_o have_v a_o conscience_n void_a of_o offence_n i._n first_o in_o case_n of_o public_a danger_n when_o the_o face_n of_o the_o world_n look_v uncomfortable_a and_o dismal_a seldom_o do_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o life_n continue_v at_o a_o stay_n the_o state_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o world_n ever_o and_o anon_o alter_v either_o by_o mean_n of_o the_o different_a interest_n and_o design_n of_o man_n who_o labour_n still_o to_o turn_v the_o wheel_n about_o or_o by_o the_o just_a judgement_n of_o god_n for_o people_n wantonness_n and_o ingratitude_n in_o time_n of_o outward_a prosperity_n now_o when_o circumstance_n be_v full_a of_o threat_n and_o terror_n they_o will_v soon_o show_v what_o the_o inside_n of_o man_n be_v conscience_n which_o in_o such_o a_o case_n be_v apt_a to_o tell_v guilty_a wretch_n their_o own_o will_v possess_v they_o with_o fearful_a apprehension_n that_o god_n be_v their_o enemy_n and_o that_o they_o have_v no_o just_a reason_n to_o hope_v for_o protection_n from_o heaven_n and_o what_o do_v this_o natural_o tend_v to_o but_o to_o put_v they_o on_o the_o rack_n when_o their_o fear_n and_o their_o sin_n both_o haunt_v they_o whereas_o a_o inoffensive_a conscience_n give_v a_o man_n all_o the_o peace_n and_o security_n imaginable_a for_o these_o be_v the_o sure_a principle_n on_o which_o he_o build_v his_o satisfaction_n that_o god_n preside_v over_o the_o world_n superintend_v and_o govern_v all_o affair_n here_o below_o that_o not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o little_a bird_n fall_v to_o the_o ground_n without_o his_o permission_n that_o the_o very_a hair_n of_o a_o good_a man_n head_n be_v all_o number_v that_o though_o here_o we_o meet_v with_o tribulation_n yet_o christ_n have_v overcome_v the_o world_n that_o he_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o be_v tempt_v above_o what_o we_o be_v able_a and_o that_o though_o extremity_n shall_v happen_v yet_o if_o we_o suffer_v with_o christ_n we_o shall_v also_o reign_v with_o he_o together_o however_o some_o be_v so_o hardy_a as_o to_o scoff_n at_o religion_n and_o strive_v to_o wear_v out_o of_o their_o mind_n the_o sense_n of_o god_n yet_o nothing_o can_v carry_v a_o man_n out_o in_o the_o day_n of_o trial_n but_o such_o principle_n as_o these_o and_o whoever_o he_o be_v that_o rely_v upon_o these_o principle_n and_o upon_o examine_v his_o action_n find_v good_a reason_n to_o believe_v that_o his_o heart_n be_v sincere_a and_o upright_a he_o must_v needs_o be_v danger-proof_n in_o a_o very_a high_a degree_n you_o have_v a_o instance_n here_o in_o st._n paul_n though_o the_o jew_n have_v bind_v themselves_o under_o a_o curse_n that_o they_o will_v kill_v he_o though_o ananias_n use_v his_o authority_n and_o tertullus_n his_o eloquence_n against_o he_o though_o man_n and_o devil_n conspire_v to_o destroy_v he_o yet_o his_o rejoice_v be_v this_o that_o his_o constant_a exercise_n be_v to_o have_v a_o conscience_n void_a of_o offence_n towards_o god_n and_o towards_o man._n it_o be_v true_a such_o evil_a day_n and_o time_n of_o danger_n every_o one_o of_o we_o be_v very_o apt_a to_o put_v far_o off_o from_o himself_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o uncertainty_n of_o they_o for_o as_o they_o may_v so_o perhaps_o they_o may_v not_o happen_v and_o every_o one_o out_o of_o fondness_n to_o himself_o be_v willing_a to_o hope_v they_o will_v not_o come_v at_o least_o in_o his_o time_n but_o then_o ii_o second_o there_o be_v another_o case_n which_o every_o day_n occur_v against_o which_o a_o wise_a man_n will_v be_v well_o provide_v the_o case_n of_o sickness_n when_o we_o shall_v have_v little_a else_o to_o do_v but_o to_o trim_v up_o our_o lamp_n and_o exercise_v our_o grace_n and_o so_o to_o repose_v ourselves_o in_o the_o bosom_n of_o a_o faithful_a god_n and_o a_o merciful_a redeemer_n now_o he_o that_o make_v a_o conscience_n of_o his_o way_n and_o study_n to_o carry_v himself_o without_o offence_n towards_o god_n and_o man_n will_v at_o that_o time_n have_v nothing_o in_o comparison_n to_o do_v but_o to_o wait_v god_n pleasure_n for_o as_o he_o foresee_v that_o such_o a_o day_n will_v come_v so_o he_o prepare_v for_o it_o beforehand_o he_o be_v wise_a than_o to_o leave_v the_o great_a and_o heavy_a work_n of_o eradicate_v sinful_a habit_n and_o of_o change_v the_o whole_a frame_n and_o inclination_n of_o his_o heart_n to_o be_v do_v upon_o a_o sick_a bed_n but_o take_v a_o early_a care_n to_o die_v to_o the_o world_n and_o to_o himself_o daily_o upon_o this_o account_n though_o a_o disease_n may_v be_v very_o troublesome_a and_o painful_a and_o part_v of_o those_o old_a acquaintance_n the_o soul_n and_o the_o body_n may_v be_v attend_v with_o violent_a natural_a struggle_n yet_o his_o spirit_n

and_o with_o a_o perfect_a heart_n and_o have_v do_v that_o which_o be_v good_a in_o thy_o sight_n what_o unconsionable_a man_n be_v there_o in_o the_o world_n that_o dare_v say_v to_o god_n in_o his_o languish_n it_o can_v be_v unless_o his_o conscience_n be_v utter_o fear_v but_o his_o heart_n must_v ache_v and_o his_o bowel_n must_v be_v full_a of_o gall_n and_o wormwood_n and_o his_o soul_n must_v be_v ruffle_v with_o many_o dismal_a apprehension_n of_o a_o judgement_n to_o come_v because_o his_o conscience_n which_o will_v then_o awake_v and_o will_v speak_v loud_a and_o home_o to_o he_o must_v needs_o tell_v he_o that_o if_o he_o die_v he_o be_v undo_v to_o all_o eternity_n tertullian_n have_v right_o observe_v that_o god_n have_v tincture_v all_o wickedness_n with_o a_o natural_a shame_n and_o fear_n and_o certain_o there_o be_v nothing_o like_o to_o a_o evil_a conscience_n to_o make_v a_o man_n a_o coward_n especial_o when_o he_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o appear_v before_o the_o just_a judge_n of_o all_o the_o earth_n to_o who_o vengeance_n belong_v it_o be_v no_o marvel_n if_o when_o a_o man_n be_v trouble_v with_o the_o qualm_n of_o a_o sourc_n conscience_n he_o be_v more_o sick_a of_o his_o sin_n than_o his_o disease_n if_o when_o he_o see_v hell_n open_a before_o he_o he_o turn_v his_o face_n away_o from_o that_o frightful_a spectacle_n and_o if_o he_o
