man_n who_o make_v any_o pretence_n to_o sobriety_n and_o religion_n profess_v themselves_o most_o earnest_o desirous_a of_o salvation_n and_o the_o great_a errand_n of_o our_o bless_a lord_n into_o the_o world_n be_v to_o purchase_v it_o and_o make_v a_o tender_a of_o it_o to_o they_o it_o may_v well_o seem_v strange_a to_o we_o as_o once_o it_o do_v to_o the_o apostle_n that_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o there_o be_v but_o few_o who_o shall_v be_v save_v for_o the_o far_o great_a number_n of_o the_o christian_a world_n be_v impenitent_o wicked_a they_o live_v all_o their_o day_n in_o a_o course_n of_o sin_n and_o die_v without_o amendment_n and_o such_o man_n the_o scripture_n assure_v we_o in_o the_o last_o judgement_n will_v not_o be_v forgive_v so_o that_o notwithstanding_o all_o the_o noise_n that_o be_v make_v about_o salvation_n the_o great_a part_n have_v very_o little_a or_o no_o share_n in_o it_o it_o be_v but_o seldom_o find_v though_o it_o be_v often_o talk_v of_o and_o the_o generality_n of_o man_n seem_v to_o be_v as_o far_o from_o it_o as_o if_o the_o gospel_n have_v never_o come_v abroad_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o it_o now_o one_o chief_a reason_n why_o so_o many_o man_n do_v at_o last_o miss_v of_o salvation_n after_o they_o have_v put_v forth_o such_o eager_a desire_n and_o spend_v such_o zealous_a pain_n upon_o it_o be_v because_o they_o mistake_v its_o nature_n and_o understand_v not_o true_o wherein_o it_o do_v consist_v they_o take_v it_o to_o be_v something_o else_o than_o what_o it_o be_v and_o so_o be_v apt_a usual_o to_o hope_v well_o of_o it_o and_o to_o think_v they_o have_v attain_v to_o it_o when_o as_o alas_o they_o be_v yet_o in_o a_o lose_a state_n and_o at_o a_o very_a great_a distance_n from_o it_o for_o although_o that_o salvation_n which_o christ_n dear_o purchase_v and_o which_o the_o gospel_n come_v to_o promote_v in_o we_o be_v a_o salvation_n from_o sin_n as_o we_o shall_v see_v present_o yet_o that_o which_o man_n ordinary_o talk_v off_o and_o expect_v by_o he_o be_v nothing_o less_o they_o think_v to_o be_v pardon_v without_o obedience_n and_o to_o be_v save_v from_o punishment_n whilst_o they_o persevere_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o their_o sin_n for_o if_o we_o come_v to_o the_o most_o profligate_v sinner_n although_o it_o be_v upon_o his_o deathbed_n when_o he_o be_v go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n with_o all_o his_o sin_n and_o unmortified_a lust_n about_o he_o yet_o even_o he_o who_o be_v thus_o lose_v in_o sin_n will_v still_o talk_v of_o his_o saviour_n christ_n and_o hope_n to_o be_v save_v by_o he_o notwithstanding_o to_o prevent_v or_o redress_v such_o dangerous_a mistake_n in_o a_o matter_n of_o so_o high_a moment_n i_o intend_v in_o discourse_v upon_o these_o word_n first_o to_o represent_v to_o you_o what_o that_o salvation_n be_v which_o christ_n have_v purchase_v for_o we_o and_o second_o to_o note_v some_o particular_a uses_n and_o improvement_n of_o it_o first_o i_o shall_v represent_v to_o you_o what_o that_o salvation_n be_v which_o christ_n have_v purchase_v for_o we_o to_o save_v be_v to_o deliver_v from_o evil_a and_o danger_n and_o may_v be_v extend_v to_o as_o many_o evil_n as_o man_n may_v be_v deliver_v from_o thus_o every_o where_o in_o david_n psalm_n the_o deliverance_n of_o the_o righteous_a out_o of_o affliction_n and_o trouble_n be_v call_v 13.5_o his_o salvation_n and_o gideon_n be_v say_v to_o have_v save_v israel_n when_o he_o rescue_v they_o out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o midianite_n jud._n 6.14_o now_o as_o for_o those_o evil_n which_o christ_n come_v to_o save_v we_o from_o in_o our_o deliverance_n from_o which_o consist_v our_o christian_a salvation_n they_o be_v not_o the_o temporal_a evil_n and_o affliction_n of_o this_o life_n his_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n nor_o be_v his_o protection_n always_o from_o the_o evil_n of_o it_o he_o himself_o be_v a_o man_n of_o sorrow_n and_o his_o church_n must_v expect_v to_o be_v like_o he_o and_o to_o live_v under_o persecution_n but_o they_o be_v first_o our_o sin_n and_o consequent_a upon_o they_o second_o those_o eternal_a punishment_n which_o be_v due_a unto_o we_o for_o they_o upon_o these_o account_n it_o be_v that_o he_o be_v christ_n the_o saviour_n he_o shall_v be_v call_v jesus_n or_o a_o saviour_n say_v the_o angel_n because_o he_o shall_v save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n as_o for_o the_o latter_a of_o these_o viz._n the_o deliverance_n from_o eternal_a death_n and_o hell-torment_n which_o be_v the_o punishment_n that_o be_v due_a unto_o our_o sin_n this_o christ_n have_v undoubted_o purchase_v for_o all_o those_o that_o be_v he_o there_o remain_v no_o condemnation_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n say_v the_o apostle_n rom._n 8.1_o but_o they_o be_v pass_v over_o from_o death_n unto_o life_n joh._n 5.24_o god_n who_o shall_v in_o anger_n exact_v those_o punishment_n be_v reconcile_v to_o they_o by_o the_o death_n of_o his_o son_n rom._n 5.10_o so_o that_o now_o they_o be_v no_o long_o under_o his_o severity_n as_o a_o offend_a lord_n but_o can_v look_v upon_o he_o as_o their_o protector_n and_o patron_n have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n whereby_o they_o can_v call_v he_o abba_n i._n e._n father_n rom._n 8.15_o and_o as_o for_o this_o deliverance_n from_o the_o worm_n of_o conscience_n and_o pang_n of_o soul_n from_o the_o eternal_a pain_n of_o hell_n and_o the_o horror_n of_o darkness_n we_o be_v general_o apt_a to_o think_v it_o a_o deliverance_n indeed_o and_o such_o as_o we_o have_v all_o great_a need_n of_o for_o who_o be_v willing_a to_o live_v with_o everlasting_a burn_n who_o will_v be_v content_a to_o roar_v in_o never_o end_v torture_n there_o be_v no_o man_n who_o believe_v there_o be_v such_o a_o place_n as_o hell_n but_o whensoever_o he_o serious_o consider_v of_o it_o most_o earnest_o desire_v to_o be_v secure_v from_o it_o and_o therefore_o among_o all_o those_o who_o be_v not_o atheistical_a or_o desperate_o loose_v and_o inconsiderate_a we_o see_v there_o be_v few_o or_o none_o who_o will_v not_o make_v some_o profession_n and_o perform_v some_o outward_a and_o easy_a act_n of_o religion_n that_o thereby_o they_o may_v quiet_v their_o own_o conscience_n with_o some_o confidence_n although_o never_o so_o groundless_a of_o their_o share_n in_o this_o salvation_n but_o then_o second_o as_o for_o those_o other_o evil_n which_o christ_n come_v to_o save_v we_o from_o viz._n our_o sin_n man_n be_v not_o ordinary_o so_o full_o persuade_v of_o their_o illness_n nor_o think_v they_o have_v any_o great_a need_n to_o be_v save_v from_o they_o for_o their_o sin_n they_o dear_o love_v and_o take_v delight_n in_o and_o therefore_o they_o do_v not_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o salvation_n but_o as_o a_o spoil_n to_o have_v they_o take_v from_o they_o and_o yet_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o this_o be_v the_o great_a salvation_n which_o christ_n design_v we_o and_o which_o he_o become_v man_n to_o procure_v for_o we_o he_o shall_v be_v call_v jesus_n say_v the_o angel_n because_o he_o shall_v save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n our_o great_a evil_n be_v our_o sin_n and_o christ_n save_n be_v his_o reform_n and_o reduce_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o sinful_a and_o disobedient_a to_o the_o obedience_n of_o the_o just_a he_o save_v when_o he_o make_v the_o bold_a irreligious_a man_n awful_a and_o the_o proud_a man_n humble_a when_o he_o possess_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o peevish_a and_o contentious_a of_o the_o envious_a and_o revengeful_a with_o meekness_n and_o patience_n charity_n and_o peace_n he_o deliver_v the_o covetous_a man_n from_o his_o unsatiable_a love_n of_o riches_n the_o carnal_a mind_n from_o its_o intemperate_a desire_n of_o sensual_a pleasure_n in_o one_o word_n he_o save_v we_o from_o our_o own_o self-will_a and_o make_v we_o to_o become_v entire_o resign_v to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n this_o reformation_n of_o our_o heart_n and_o life_n by_o rescue_v we_o from_o all_o sinful_a lust_n and_o wicked_a practice_n be_v the_o great_a

allow_v they_o time_n and_o opportunity_n of_o reformation_n and_o the_o only_a advice_n which_o i_o can_v give_v they_o be_v to_o renounce_v their_o evil_a course_n and_o to_o live_v as_o new_a man_n and_o then_o they_o may_v comfortable_o conclude_v that_o they_o be_v in_o a_o safe_a state_n and_o be_v not_o without_o their_o part_n in_o that_o salvation_n which_o christ_n come_v to_o procure_v for_o they_o 3._o a_o three_o use_v and_o improvement_n which_o i_o shall_v make_v of_o this_o discourse_n be_v for_o the_o direct_n of_o our_o charity_n in_o show_v what_o thing_n we_o ought_v most_o chief_o to_o desire_v and_o endeavour_v after_o for_o our_o brethren_n for_o if_o our_o great_a happiness_n and_o the_o great_a salvation_n which_o christ_n come_v to_o procure_v for_o we_o consist_v in_o our_o deliverance_n from_o our_o sin_n and_o we_o be_v to_o love_v our_o brethren_n as_o christ_n love_v we_o then_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o great_a benefit_n which_o we_o be_v to_o seek_v for_o they_o be_v their_o virtuous_a life_n and_o reformation_n holiness_n be_v the_o great_a kindness_n which_o they_o can_v receive_v or_o we_o can_v endeavour_v to_o promote_v in_o they_o and_o therefore_o among_o all_o those_o endeavour_n which_o be_v very_o commendable_o use_v for_o our_o brethren_n good_a whether_o in_o their_o body_n good_a name_n or_o fortune_n let_v we_o still_o be_v sure_a to_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o their_o high_a good_a of_o all_o their_o increase_n in_o good_a live_n and_o their_o deliverance_n from_o their_o sin_n let_v our_o great_a care_n be_v to_o make_v they_o better_o rather_o than_o rich_a and_o more_o honourable_a than_o they_o be_v for_o this_o be_v true_a kindness_n and_o love_n indeed_o to_o show_v ourselves_o most_o concern_v for_o that_o whereby_o they_o will_v be_v infinite_o most_v advantage_v this_o deliverance_n from_o their_o sin_n then_o be_v that_o which_o above_o all_o thing_n we_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o procure_v for_o

reclaim_v they_o from_o a_o false_a religion_n or_o establish_v they_o in_o a_o right_a one_o for_o repentance_n and_o reformation_n be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n in_o all_o party_n and_o must_v carry_v man_n who_o other_o error_n god_n shall_v see_v fit_a to_o excuse_v because_o of_o the_o pityableness_n of_o their_o ignorance_n to_o heaven_n in_o all_o the_o sect_n of_o the_o christian_a world_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o convert_v a_o man_n to_o a_o party_n but_o not_o to_o obedience_n we_o win_v a_o proselyte_n but_o half_a way_n 20._o and_o have_v not_o save_v a_o soul_n from_o death_n till_o we_o have_v reduce_v he_o as_o from_o error_n so_o from_o sin_n too_o in_o all_o our_o endeavour_n therefore_o of_o this_o sort_n let_v we_o strive_v at_o least_o as_o much_o to_o win_v

unto_o a_o entire_a obedience_n unto_o christ_n and_o not_o only_o to_o a_o external_a communion_n with_o ourselves_o some_o indeed_o instead_o of_o endeavour_v to_o save_v and_o rescue_v other_o from_o their_o sin_n take_v a_o pride_n in_o inveigle_v and_o ensnare_a they_o into_o sin_n they_o will_v glory_n in_o make_v a_o sober_a man_n drink_v or_o in_o corrupt_v a_o modest_a virtue_n and_o
