and_o the_o life_n but_o now_o here_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v that_o i_o will_v have_v all_o people_n well_o to_o mind_n that_o be_v christ_n be_v the_o way_n the_o truth_n and_o the_o

be_v another_o thing_n for_o mind_n christ_n his_o mind_n in_o this_o thing_n be_v that_o he_o be_v man_n and_o woman_n way_n to_o heaven_n and_o the_o truth_n that_o they_o must_v come_v to_o and_o be_v guide_v by_o and_o the_o life_n that_o they_o must_v live_v in_o which_o be_v by_o faith_n in_o the_o son_n of_o god_n now_o here_o lie_v the_o matter_n to_o be_v consider_v whether_o or_o no_o thou_o be_v come_v to_o that_o state_n and_o condition_n that_o be_v to_o come_v to_o know_v christ_n to_o be_v thy_o way_n and_o whether_o thou_o be_v come_v to_o know_v the_o truth_n as_o it_o be_v

when_o god_n come_v to_o reckon_v with_o they_o for_o this_o the_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n do_v witness_v and_o say_v the_o life_n which_o we_o now_o live_v be_v by_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n gal._n 2.20_o and_o john_n say_v that_o come_v to_o witness_v the_o work_n of_o god_n begin_v and_o carry_v on_o in_o himself_o on_o this_o manner_n that_o which_o be_v from_o the_o

we_o unto_o you_o 1_o john_n 1.1_o and_o further_o the_o apostle_n say_v christ_n wrought_v all_o their_o work_n in_o they_o and_o for_o they_o which_o work_n be_v to_o root_v out_o sin_n now_o this_o they_o come_v to_o know_v and_o witness_v in_o themselves_o and_o not_o by_o report_n and_o hear-say_n of_o other_o this_o state_n the_o people_n of_o god_n come_v to_o in_o all_o age_n and_o

some_o now_o adays_o think_v to_o have_v think_v to_o serve_v the_o devil_n while_o they_o be_v here_o and_o that_o god_n will_v save_v they_o when_o they_o can_v sin_v no_o long_o but_o mark_v this_o such_o as_o people_n sow_v such_o shall_v they_o reap_v and_o they_o that_o sow_v sin_n and_o wickedness_n must_v of_o the_o same_o wage_n reap_v corruption_n which_o wage_n the_o scripture_n say_v be_v death_n say_v the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n and_o that_o to_o they_o for_o evermore_o but_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n be_v eternal_a life_n rom._n 6.23_o for_o this_o be_v a_o strange_a thing_n that_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v a_o servant_n to_o one_o man_n many_o year_n and_o at_o last_o come_v to_o another_o for_o wage_n for_o the_o same_o time_n this_o be_v confusion_n and_o madness_n and_o with_o this_o cheat_n a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n be_v cheat_v by_o both_o priest_n and_o professor_n in_o tell_v people_n that_o they_o can_v live_v without_o sin_n and_o so_o they_o serve_v the_o devil_n all_o their_o day_n and_o that_o god_n will_v accept_v with_o the_o reward_n of_o peace_n of_o they_o when_o they_o can_v serve_v he_o no_o long_o for_o inasmuch_o as_o they_o tell_v people_n they_o can_v leave_v off_o sin_v but_o must_v sin_v as_o long_o as_o they_o live_v it_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n as_o if_o they_o tell_v people_n they_o must_v serve_v the_o devil_n all_o their_o day_n for_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n commit_v or_o bring_v forth_o in_o any_o but_o it_o be_v of_o the_o devil_n be_v beget_v and_o bring_v forth_o in_o people_n for_o he_o be_v the_o father_n of_o all_o sin_n in_o all_o people_n wheresoever_o or_o in_o whosoever_o it_o be_v bring_v forth_o and_o therefore_o this_o avoidable_a must_v follow_v that_o they_o that_o live_v and_o die_v in_o sin_n must_v live_v and_o die_v servant_n to_o the_o devil_n &_o if_o so_o every_o man_n must_v expect_v his_o wage_n according_a to_o his_o work_n therefore_o i_o will_v have_v none_o deceive_v themselves_o for_o if_o the_o devil_n must_v be_v serve_v all_o your_o day_n he_o you_o must_v go_v to_o at_o last_o unavoidable_o whether_o you_o will_v believe_v it_o or_o no._n and_o further_o take_v notice_n of_o this_o christ_n be_v not_o the_o way_n of_o the_o wicked_a nor_o of_o sinner_n neither_o be_v sinner_n or_o they_o that_o plead_v for_o sin_n come_v to_o the_o

the_o founder_n of_o all_o sin_n and_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n and_o damnation_n to_o all_o that_o live_v and_o die_v in_o sin_n these_o thing_n be_v worthy_a to_o be_v consider_v before_o it_o be_v too_o late_a which_o will_v be_v when_o god_n spirit_n have_v do_v strive_v with_o thou_o for_o without_o come_v to_o know_v the_o devil_n work_n destroy_v in_o thou_o or_o that_o work_n begin_v by_o the_o lord_n till_o thou_o come_v to_o know_v this_o thou_o shall_v never_o know_v the_o truth_n make_v free_a from_o sin_n and_o that_o which_o make_v free_a from_o sin_n be_v christ_n and_o till_o people_n come_v to_o know_v this_o freedom_n from_o sin_n begin_v they_o can_v never_o know_v righteousness_n and_o without_o righteousness_n none_o shall_v see_v god_n and_o without_o come_v to_o see_v god_n none_o can_v go_v to_o heaven_n till_o they_o come_v to_o be_v free_v from_o sin_n none_o can_v be_v fit_v for_o heaven_n and_o the_o scripture_n say_v the_o truth_n make_v free_a and_o the_o truth_n be_v christ_n jesus_n and_o if_o this_o be_v to_o make_v free_a it_o be_v to_o make_v free_a from_o something_o and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o from_o sin_n what_o be_v it_o that_o people_n must_v be_v free_v from_o i_o will_v know_v i_o do_v believe_v it_o be_v from_o sin_n for_o i_o never_o hear_v of_o any_o thing_n that_o any_o be_v in_o bondage_n to_o but_o sin_n that_o hinder_v people_n of_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o christ_n the_o truth_n be_v come_v to_o make_v a_o end_n of_o it_o that_o righteousness_n may_v reign_v in_o the_o room_n of_o sin_n and_o these_o two_o thing_n be_v never_o know_v to_o dwell_v together_o but_o one_o must_v be_v know_v to_o be_v pull_v down_o before_o the_o other_o can_v be_v set_v up_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v light_n have_v no_o fellowship_n with_o darkness_n nor_o a_o believer_n with_o a_o infidel_n here_o christ_n be_v mean_v the_o light_n and_o the_o devil_n the_o power_n of_o darkness_n and_o these_o two_o war_n one_o against_o the_o other_o in_o people_n strive_v which_o shall_v rule_v and_o bear_v sway_n in_o people_n mind_n heart_n and_o affection_n one_o of_o these_o two_o spirit_n strive_v to_o lead_v into_o all_o manner_n of_o sin_n and_o evil_a and_o the_o other_o strive_v to_o lead_v into_o all_o manner_n of_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n both_o in_o thing_n spiritual_a and_o temporal_a and_o here_o i_o will_v make_v a_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o work_n and_o strive_v in_o people_n and_o that_o in_o all_o people_n at_o one_o time_n or_o another_o and_o that_o all_o may_v be_v sensible_a of_o it_o if_o they_o will_v but_o if_o they_o will_v not_o in_o the_o day_n when_o god_n good_a spirit_n strive_v with_o they_o they_o shall_v be_v bring_v one_o day_n to_o a_o remembrance_n of_o it_o when_o they_o shall_v be_v unwilling_a and_o before_o they_o be_v aware_a when_o nothing_o but_o death_n and_o sorrow_n shall_v meet_v together_o and_o none_o to_o help_v they_o will_v be_v find_v now_o to_o the_o matter_n and_o manner_n of_o these_o two_o spirit_n strive_v the_o bad_a spirit_n he_o in_o all_o people_n strive_v to_o keep_v their_o mind_n altogether_o in_o carnal_a and_o in_o earthly_a thing_n which_o be_v death_n to_o the_o soul_n the_o scripture_n say_v to_o be_v carnally-minded_n be_v death_n but_o to_o be_v spiritually-minded_n be_v life_n and_o peace_n and_o this_o i_o do_v believe_v be_v
they_o off_o in_o their_o sin_n neither_o desire_v he_o their_o death_n or_o destruction_n but_o rather_o that_o they_o shall_v turn_v from_o their_o wickedness_n and_o live_v and_o so_o the_o lord_n consider_v the_o misery_n man_n be_v fall_v into_o and_o what_o be_v become_v of_o man_n look_v down_o upon_o they_o with_o a_o eye_n of_o pity_n and_o compassion_n remember_v his_o former_a love_n to_o man_n in_o the_o beginning_n when_o he_o first_o create_v he_o how_o that_o he_o have_v more_o regard_n to_o man_n than_o to_o all_o he_o have_v create_v upon_o the_o earth_n beside_o insomuch_o that_o he_o make_v he_o in_o his_o own_o likeness_n in_o pure_a holiness_n without_o any_o spot_n of_o sin_n and_o set_v he_o above_o the_o ox_n &_o the_o ass_n and_o above_o all_o other_o creature_n in_o wisdom_n power_n and_o glory_n but_o man_n lose_v that_o dominion_n god_n give_v he_o fall_v under_o the_o ox_n and_o the_o ass_n that_o be_v become_v more_o degenerate_v than_o the_o beast_n of_o the_o field_n and_o have_v not_o power_n of_o himself_o over_o sin_n that_o holy_a nature_n be_v lose_v which_o he_o be_v create_v in_o that_o wisdom_n that_o glory_n that_o power_n in_o which_o

praise_v the_o lord_n in_o their_o kind_n and_o he_o find_v no_o fault_n in_o they_o and_o as_o man_n at_o the_o first_o be_v set_v above_o they_o so_o now_o in_o god_n account_n he_o be_v set_v above_o man_n in_o his_o fallen_n state_n for_o instance_n if_o one_o have_v a_o ox_n or_o a_o horse_n to_o a_o pond_n to_o drink_v and_o beat_v he_o till_o one_o kill_v he_o he_o will_v drink_v no_o

to_o witness_v the_o same_o power_n over_o sin_n as_o the_o apostle_n witness_v in_o their_o day_n and_o i_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v with_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o be_v faithful_a to_o god_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o apostle_n day_n as_o concern_v have_v power_n over_o sin_n and_o to_o come_v to_o a_o perfect_a state_n in_o christ_n jesus_n but_o to_o they_o that_o be_v wallow_v in_o sin_n as_o a_o sow_n in_o the_o mire_n and_o to_o they_o that_o be_v plead_v for_o sin_n for_o term_n of_o life_n although_o they_o may_v be_v get_v under_o a_o high_a notion_n of_o religion_n and_o out_o of_o the_o open_a profaneness_n of_o the_o gross_a abomination_n which_o be_v practise_v in_o the_o world_n yet_o notwithstanding_o this_o while_o they_o plead_v for_o sin_n and_o live_v in_o

and_o they_o that_o plead_v for_o it_o to_o wit_n for_o sin_n be_v plead_v for_o the_o devil_n kingdom_n and_o with_o such_o i_o must_v needs_o confess_v it_o be_v never_o with_o they_o as_o with_o the_o apostle_n in_o their_o day_n and_o they_o that_o follow_v christ_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n nor_o in_o our_o day_n and_o such_o there_o be_v in_o the_o apostle_n day_n that_o will_v not_o believe_v and_o follow_v christ_n and_o they_o know_v no_o power_n over_o sin_n because_o they_o come_v not_o to_o he_o that_o give_v power_n and_o so_o come_v not_o to_o be_v son_n of_o god_n because_o they_o do_v not_o receive_v he_o that_o be_v come_v to_o give_v power_n to_o become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o the_o scripture_n say_v which_o we_o that_o be_v in_o scorn_n call_v quaker_n do_v believe_v to_o be_v a_o true_a declaration_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o ought_v to_o be_v believe_v and_o have_v a_o reverend_a esteem_n of_o they_o and_o they_o say_v christ_n come_v to_o his_o own_o but_o his_o own_o receive_v he_o not_o but_o as_o many_o as_o do_v receive_v he_o unto_o they_o he_o give_v power_n to_o become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n john_n 1.10_o 11_o 12._o receive_v of_o he_o be_v to_o yield_v to_o the_o motion_n of_o his_o good_a spirit_n in_o they_o and_o these_o be_v they_o which_o come_v to_o know_v that_o god_n be_v not_o change_v nor_o his_o

will_v not_o believe_v the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n nor_o the_o apostle_n so_o now_o in_o our_o day_n there_o be_v many_o professor_n and_o profane_a that_o will_v not_o believe_v christ_n nor_o

be_v the_o worst_a against_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n and_o so_o they_o be_v now_o adays_o for_o all_o religion_n and_o worship_n be_v false_a and_o vain_a except_o that_o which_o christ_n set_v

christ_n need_v not_o have_v come_v and_o suffer_v for_o sin_n as_o he_o do_v nor_o the_o apostle_n and_o minister_n of_o christ_n have_v press_v people_n so_o much_o to_o perfection_n as_o they_o do_v and_o to_o make_v their_o call_v and_o election_n sure_a in_o this_o life_n but_o this_o be_v certain_a if_o ever_o people_n come_v to_o be_v heir_n to_o god_n kingdom_n they_o must_v come_v to_o

and_o plead_v for_o it_o and_o while_o the_o old_a nature_n be_v stand_v their_o preach_a pray_v baptise_v and_o break_v of_o bread_n sing_v and_o family_n duty_n it_o be_v all_o vain_a if_o christ_n

to_o the_o lord_n needs_o must_v the_o rest_n for_o all_o sin_n be_v abomination_n at_o the_o best_a and_o therefore_o while_o people_n live_v in_o sin_n and_o plead_v for_o the_o continuation_n of_o
