they_o innocent_a to_o have_v it_o thorough_o examine_v their_o strong_a confederacy_n and_o steadfast_a combination_n their_o many_o oath_n of_o secrecy_n and_o obstinate_a resolution_n to_o stick_v to_o the_o design_n and_o to_o each_o other_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o it_o have_v not_o be_v effect_v and_o that_o sudden_a destruction_n have_v not_o come_v upon_o we_o as_o pain_n upon_o a_o woman_n in_o travail_n but_o let_v we_o not_o content_v ourselves_o mere_o with_o admiration_n of_o his_o amaze_a providence_n over_o we_o which_o have_v prolong_v a_o while_n we_o know_v not_o for_o how_o long_a or_o short_a a_o time_n the_o season_n of_o grace_n unto_o we_o let_v we_o not_o presume_v to_o abuse_v this_o patience_n for_o so_o we_o be_v to_o esteem_v it_o not_o a_o perfect_a

we_o shall_v be_v cut_v down_o indeed_o if_o we_o will_v not_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n worthy_a of_o the_o gospel_n and_o therefore_o look_v upon_o this_o as_o the_o day_n wherein_o you_o may_v know_v and_o improve_v the_o thing_n belong_v to_o your_o peace_n be_v zealous_a as_o our_o lord_n exhort_v and_o repent_v be_v quick_a and_o speedy_a active_a and_o diligent_a in_o this_o weighty_a business_n now_o in_o this_o your_o day_n lest_o you_o never_o have_v such_o a_o opportunity_n again_o but_o miserable_o perish_v in_o your_o sin_n consider_v i_o beseech_v you_o do_v you_o not_o pray_v to_o god_n continual_o if_o you_o have_v any_o sense_n of_o religion_n that_o he_o will_v quick_o dissipate_v all_o our_o fear_n by_o lay_v more_o and_o more_o open_a and_o then_o utter_o defeat_v all_o the_o wicked_a contrivance_n of_o our_o enemy_n against_o we_o do_v you_o not_o think_v that_o he_o stay_v very_o long_o before_o he_o bring_v to_o light_v the_o very_a bottom_n of_o the_o plot_n and_o make_v their_o treason_n so_o visible_a to_o all_o the_o world_n that_o none_o may_v be_v able_a to_o gainsay_v it_o do_v you_o not_o think_v there_o be_v reason_n to_o tremble_v when_o you_o serious_o reflect_v upon_o it_o to_o see_v in_o what_o a_o lamentable_a unsettled_a and_o naked_a condition_n we_o be_v in_o danger_n to_o be_v overrun_v with_o foreign_a enemy_n shall_v they_o make_v a_o attempt_n upon_o we_o be_v you_o not_o all_o therefore_o ready_a to_o say_v lord_n make_v haste_n to_o help_v we_o make_v no_o tarry_n o_o our_o god_n o_o my_o beloved_n say_v the_o

instant_o turn_v to_o god_n in_o work_n meet_v for_o repentance_n that_o so_o both_o his_o present_a judgement_n may_v be_v remove_v and_o worse_o prevent_v i_o know_v nothing_o that_o can_v hinder_v the_o entertainment_n of_o this_o reasonable_a motion_n unless_o it_o be_v this_o that_o man_n see_v there_o be_v not_o always_o such_o a_o speedy_a course_n take_v with_o sinner_n and_o therefore_o they_o presume_v god_n will_v still_o bear_v with_o they_o for_o they_o themselves_o have_v live_v and_o sin_v many_o year_n and_o have_v escape_v many_o danger_n and_o though_o they_o have_v be_v affright_v sometime_o with_o such_o sermon_n as_o this_o yet_o they_o be_v worse_o scare_v than_o hurt_n still_o all_o thing_n be_v as_o they_o be_v they_o be_v very_o well_o and_o prosperous_a they_o have_v all_o that_o their_o heart_n desire_v and_o therefore_o there_o heart_n grow_v hard_a and_o they_o suppose_v they_o be_v in_o no_o sudden_a danger_n in_o answer_n to_o this_o i_o shall_v say_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o three_o consideration_n here_o in_o my_o text_n which_o be_v iii_o that_o all_o impenitent_a person_n as_o they_o oppose_v god_n so_o they_o have_v god_n for_o their_o enemy_n and_o he_o will_v set_v himself_o in_o opposition_n to_o they_o for_o he_o tell_v this_o church_n that_o if_o they_o will_v not_o repent_v he_o will_v fight_v against_o they_o which_o denote_v that_o he_o will_v become_v their_o adversary_n and_o look_v upon_o they_o as_o rebel_n nay_o as_o irreconcilable_a enemy_n who_o will_v never_o submit_v to_o his_o divine_a government_n which_o be_v concern_v therefore_o to_o destroy_v they_o so_o that_o these_o impenitent_a wretch_n who_o go_v on_o resolve_o in_o their_o sin_n notwithstanding_o all_o that_o he_o can_v do_v to_o reclaim_v they_o gain_v but_o little_a by_o the_o patience_n and_o lenity_n of_o god_n towards_o they_o and_o it_o be_v but_o a_o small_a comfort_n that_o he_o do_v not_o present_o strike_v they_o see_v it_o be_v certain_a as_o the_o psalmist_n express_v it_o that_o he_o be_v bend_v his_o bow_n whet_v his_o sword_n and_o prepare_v for_o they_o the_o instrument_n of_o death_n of_o this_o i_o need_v not_o say_v much_o nor_o will_v the_o time_n permit_v it_o it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o know_v that_o sometime_o the_o defer_v of_o execution_n be_v a_o piece_n of_o hostility_n and_o make_v the_o blow_n heavy_a when_o it_o come_v they_o be_v but_o treasure_v and_o heap_v up_o to_o themselves_o wrath_n against_o the_o day_n of_o wrath_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v two_o rom._n 4_o 5._o who_o will_v not_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n no_o nor_o his_o judgement_n to_o repentance_n but_o proceed_v to_o add_v sin_n to_o sin_n till_o a_o most_o terrible_a vengeance_n break_v out_o upon_o they_o which_o may_v be_v defer_v perhaps_o from_o time_n to_o time_n but_o with_o no_o other_o design_n than_o a_o great_a prince_n have_v who_o be_v so_o powerful_a that_o he_o can_v have_v the_o better_a of_o his_o enemy_n when_o he_o will_v and_o therefore_o forbear_v to_o fall_v upon_o they_o not_o because_o he_o mean_v to_o spare_v they_o but_o only_o because_o he_o wait_v for_o a_o opportunity_n when_o he_o may_v do_v the_o more_o terrible_a execution_n and_o take_v the_o severe_a revenge_n on_o those_o who_o he_o intend_v to_o ruin_v what_o do_v sinful_a man_n mean_v then_o to_o provoke_v the_o lord_n to_o jealousy_n be_v they_o strong_a than_o he_o will_v you_o not_o fear_v he_o because_o he_o do_v not_o instant_o smite_v shall_v your_o heart_n be_v set_v in_o you_o to_o do_v evil_a because_o judgement_n be_v not_o always_o speedy_o execute_v against_o a_o evil_a work_n will_v you_o dare_v to_o offend_v he_o as_o if_o he_o can_v not_o or_o presume_v upon_o he_o as_o if_o he_o will_v not_o punish_v let_v i_o tell_v you_o he_o be_v the_o more_o to_o be_v fear_v and_o dread_v if_o you_o understand_v yourselves_o for_o this_o forbearance_n he_o delay_v to_o strike_v not_o because_o he_o can_v but_o because_o he_o can_v when_o he_o please_v not_o because_o he_o will_v not_o but_o because_o he_o will_v do_v it_o at_o such_o a_o time_n when_o it_o will_v most_o serve_v the_o wisdom_n of_o his_o providence_n we_o be_v ignorant_a of_o all_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n do_v not_o do_v with_o all_o as_o he_o do_v with_o some_o we_o know_v not_o for_o what_o cause_v they_o be_v that_o he_o do_v not_o come_v so_o quick_o to_o reckon_v with_o one_o wicked_a man_n as_o with_o another_z it_o be_v enough_o to_o affright_v we_o out_o of_o our_o wicked_a way_n to_o know_v that_o he_o look_v upon_o such_o person_n as_o his_o enemy_n and_o that_o he_o will_v take_v the_o fit_a season_n to_o come_v and_o wound_v the_o head_n of_o his_o enemy_n the_o scalp_n of_o he_o that_o go_v on_o still_o in_o his_o trespass_n for_o that_o be_v the_o last_o consideration_n iv_o that_o such_o person_n as_o will_v not_o repent_v be_v so_o often_o

so_o he_o say_v i_o will_v fight_v against_o they_o with_o the_o sword_n of_o my_o mouth_n for_o the_o understanding_n of_o which_o phrase_n you_o must_v look_v back_o to_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o this_o book_n vers_fw-la 16._o where_o christ_n be_v represent_v as_o have_v a_o sharp_a sword_n and_o that_o two-edged_a go_v out_o of_o his_o mouth_n the_o mouth_n it_o not_o the_o proper_a
