jesus_n christ_n to_o die_v for_o we_o this_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o it_o reveal_v to_o the_o poor_a soul_n that_o when_o i_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o god_n he_o be_v my_o

to_o die_v to_o save_v sinner_n so_o god_n love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n that_o he_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a

among_o man_n and_o that_o therein_o while_o he_o do_v so_o he_o give_v we_o many_o bless_a experiment_n of_o his_o love_n and_o mercy_n to_o poor_a sinner_n in_o heal_v the_o sick_a in_o give_v sight_n to_o the_o blind_a in_o raise_v the_o dead_a and_o while_o he_o converse_v among_o man_n he_o teach_v and_o discover_v in_o a_o great_a measure_n the_o mysterye_n of_o his_o father_n counsel_n to_o we_o that_o else_o we_o can_v never_o have_v know_v and_o give_v we_o a_o holy_a pattern_n and_o example_n of_o life_n in_o humility_n and_o patience_n and_o delligence_n and_o prayer_n and_o thankfulness_n all_o these_o thing_n be_v good_a news_n and_o glad_a tiding_n to_o poor_a sinner_n every_o part_n of_o they_o then_o the_o gospel_n tell_v we_o that_o this_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n after_o he_o have_v walk_v among_o man_n for_o many_o year_n together_o that_o then_o as_o a_o public_a person_n we_o 6._o christ_n die_v for_o we_o and_o second_o adam_n and_o our_o surety_n he_o do_v lay_v down_o his_o life_n and_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n but_o you_o will_v say_v where_o be_v the_o good_a news_n from_o that_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o poor_a sinner_n be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n they_o be_v make_v friend_n with_o god_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o poor_a sinner_n be_v redeem_v from_o all_o their_o enemy_n sin_n and_o death_n and_o wrath_n and_o curse_v and_o hell_n all_o these_o by_o the_o death_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v remove_v then_o the_o gospel_n tell_v you_o that_o jesus_n christ_n as_o he_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n so_o he_o rise_v again_o for_o our_o

and_o every_o tittle_n of_o this_o be_v glad_a tiding_n and_o good_a news_n to_o poor_a sinner_n then_o the_o gospel_n tell_v you_o that_o after_o his_o resurrection_n he_o converse_v with_o his_o

&_o that_o desire_n to_o do_v good_a and_o it_o may_v be_v out_o of_o a_o conceit_n or_o rather_o with_o reverence_n out_o of_o conscience_n of_o the_o pulpit_n or_o the_o place_n we_o preach_v in_o have_v hide_v their_o talent_n and_o have_v lay_v down_o their_o work_n and_o keep_v in_o their_o gift_n and_o become_v unprofitable_a and_o how_o many_o hundred_o christian_n be_v there_o that_o be_v godly_a and_o holy_a people_n out_o of_o conscience_n of_o the_o call_n of_o the_o minister_n or_o the_o house_n that_o they_o meet_v in_o have_v with_o the_o grief_n of_o their_o soul_n and_o many_o

not_o of_o stone_n but_o make_v a_o absolute_a law_n that_o it_o must_v hold_v in_o all_o case_n they_o fall_v into_o these_o snare_n that_o be_v grievous_a i_o speak_v not_o this_o that_o you_o shall_v persecute_v such_o for_o they_o be_v godly_a people_n and_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n they_o have_v tender_a conscience_n i_o mean_v not_o so_o nor_o do_v i_o persuade_v they_o to_o do_v thing_n without_o some_o knowledge_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o do_v it_o doubt_o but_o i_o desire_v you_o to_o receive_v this_o truth_n whereby_o the_o occasion_n of_o such_o scruple_n may_v be_v remoove_v there_o be_v four_o thing_n the_o first_o thing_n be_v this_o that_o clear_o demonstrate_v that_o they_o can_v do_v much_o for_o god_n accident_n 5._o if_o they_o do_v good_a it_o be_v by_o accident_n or_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n because_o if_o they_o do_v any_o thing_n for_o god_n for_o the_o win_n of_o other_o it_o be_v as_o i_o may_v say_v by_o chance_n by_o accident_n for_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n beside_o their_o intention_n this_o be_v their_o religion_n it_o be_v not_o to_o study_v how_o i_o may_v honour_v god_n and_o bring_v in_o sinner_n this_o scarce_o come_v in_o their_o thought_n but_o what_o be_v truth_n and_o what_o be_v false_a what_o be_v lawful_a and_o what_o be_v unlawful_a therefore_o divers_a that_o else_o be_v godly_a man_n let_v they_o have_v a_o nick_n right_a or_o wrong_v they_o never_o consider_v the_o congregation_n how_o they_o may_v do_v most_o good_a but_o they_o think_v this_o be_v truth_n and_o every_o truth_n must_v be_v preach_v in_o every_o place_n at_o every_o time_n to_o every_o people_n this_o be_v their_o religion_n they_o never_o look_v if_o it_o may_v do_v good_a whereas_o a_o christian_a that_o make_v no_o more_o law_n than_o christ_n have_v make_v and_o study_n what_o be_v expedient_a and_o will_v win_v soul_n he_o must_v be_v wise_a and_o watchful_a and_o circumspect_a and_o able_a to_o see_v what_o may_v conduce_v to_o edification_n therefore_o man_n in_o scripture_n that_o be_v send_v to_o win_v soul_n they_o be_v call_v fisherman_n the_o apostle_n be_v and_o fisherman_n must_v be_v cunning_a it_o be_v not_o every_o bait_n that_o will_v catch_v every_o fish_n he_o must_v bait_v and_o wait_v and_o be_v cunning_a and_o wise_a say_v paul_n i_o take_v you_o by_o guile_n i_o have_v a_o way_n to_o win_v you_o and_o insinuate_v into_o you_o man_n must_v make_v it_o their_o study_n if_o they_o will_v win_v soul_n to_o the_o lord_n to_o look_v not_o only_o that_o they_o preach_v truth_n but_o what_o truth_n to_o what_o people_n and_o what_o way_n they_o do_v it_o therefore_o paul_n gal._n 2._o when_o he_o come_v among_o people_n that_o be_v not_o able_a to_o receive_v the_o truth_n concern_v justification_n and_o concern_v ceremony_n he_o preach_v to_o they_o of_o good_a repute_n that_o be_v choice_a christian_n that_o be_v able_a to_o bear_v it_o that_o they_o may_v communicate_v it_o to_o other_o or_o else_o he_o shall_v loose_v his_o labour_n and_o run_v in_o vain_a so_o in_o act._n 19_o where_o there_o be_v great_a strife_n about_o the_o temple_n of_o diana_n paul_n when_o he_o come_v there_o he_o know_v that_o the_o people_n heart_n be_v set_v on_o their_o temple_n and_o the_o worship_v of_o their_o idol_n therefore_o he_o do_v wise_o to_o do_v their_o soul_n good_a he_o may_v have_v say_v i_o preach_v the_o truth_n and_o down_o with_o the_o image_n of_o diana_n but_o when_o the_o business_n be_v do_v bespeak_v not_o a_o word_n against_o diana_n and_o the_o temple_n he_o hate_v the_o image_n and_o the_o temple_n but_o he_o go_v the_o wise_a way_n to_o work_v to_o win_v they_o that_o be_v another_o reason_n few_o 6._o they_o intend_v good_a only_o to_o few_o a_o sixth_o reason_n be_v this_o these_o people_n can_v do_v good_a for_o the_o win_n of_o other_o and_o for_o the_o feed_n of_o the_o poor_a lamb_n of_o christ_n why_o so_o if_o they_o do_v any_o i_o tell_v you_o it_o be_v by_o accident_n it_o be_v beside_o their_o intention_n or_o if_o they_o intend_v any_o it_o be_v a_o few_o of_o their_o own_o mind_n and_o judgement_n those_o that_o be_v in_o fellowship_n with_o they_o only_o and_o the_o rest_n they_o look_v on_o they_o as_o unbeliever_n though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o holy_a and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n have_v seal_v to_o their_o soul_n yet_o they_o be_v unbeliever_n and_o be_v in_o a_o antichristian_a estate_n and_o have_v the_o mark_n of_o the_o beast_n on_o they_o and_o go_v from_o they_o as_o if_o they_o have_v the_o plague_n on_o they_o i_o say_v thou_o may_v do_v good_a to_o those_o people_n that_o be_v of_o thy_o own_o mind_n thou_o can_v never_o do_v good_a to_o other_o with_o such_o language_n under_o such_o notion_n whereas_o other_o that_o walk_n according_a to_o the_o truth_n that_o i_o teach_v they_o walk_v equal_o to_o all_o saint_n and_o as_o paul_n say_v i_o become_v all_o thing_n to_o all_o man_n that_o i_o may_v win_v some_o he_o labour_v to_o win_v sinner_n to_o nourish_v the_o weak_a if_o they_o have_v any_o thing_n of_o christ_n he_o love_v they_o &_o if_o they_o have_v nothing_o he_o endeavour_n to_o work_v it_o whereas_o the_o other_o look_v on_o they_o as_o turk_n and_o infidel_n and_o can_v do_v they_o no_o good_a but_o you_o will_v say_v though_o we_o look_v so_o on_o they_o we_o will_v do_v they_o good_a if_o they_o will_v hearken_v to_o we_o it_o may_v be_v so_o and_o it_o be_v probable_a you_o will_v do_v they_o good_a but_o i_o tell_v you_o you_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o in_o that_o way_n why_o because_o as_o paul_n say_v 1_o cor._n 8._o knowledge_n puff_v up_o but_o love_n edifi_v if_o you_o love_v they_o not_o you_o can_v not_o edify_v they_o if_o i_o do_v know_v a_o man_n that_o shall_v teach_v i_o and_o love_v i_o nor_o i_o can_v i_o will_v not_o be_v edify_v when_o good_a people_n that_o be_v seal_v that_o

they_o and_o that_o they_o be_v unbeliever_n be_v they_o like_v to_o do_v they_o good_a they_o be_v not_o because_o love_n do_v not_o intervene_v destruction_n 7._o they_o lead_v other_o to_o destruction_n shall_v i_o add_v one_o word_n more_o and_o end_v that_o last_o they_o can_v win_v other_o or_o do_v good_a to_o other_o why_o so_o it_o be_v a_o foreword_n i_o be_o death_n to_o speak_v it_o but_o i_o know_v it_o be_v true_a because_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o edify_v that_o those_o that_o go_v that_o way_n according_a to_o that_o principle_n they_o lead_v many_o silly_a soul_n to_o their_o own_o destruction_n how_o i_o will_v demonstrate_v it_o thus_o the_o principle_n be_v this_o that_o nick_n that_o be_v new_a they_o lay_v such_o stress_n on_o it_o that_o he_o that_o
