can_v have_v peace_n no_o not_o paul_n nor_o abraham_n nor_o any_o of_o the_o holy_a of_o god_n child_n and_o therefore_o absolute_a perfection_n be_v not_o require_v if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v not_o sin_v we_o make_v christ_n a_o liar_n and_o his_o word_n be_v not_o in_o we_o 1._o john_n 1.10_o our_o conscience_n can_v still_o say_v we_o have_v sin_v and_o it_o can_v still_o say_v our_o obedience_n be_v imperfect_a a_o halt_a leg_n can_v never_o go_v perfect_o a_o jacob_n be_v call_v he_o that_o halt_v and_o every_o godly_a soul_n halt_v though_o he_o do_v not_o halt_v between_o

imperfection_n of_o body_n can_v neither_o go_v nor_o see_v nor_o hear_v perfect_o so_o the_o best_a of_o god_n child_n have_v imperfection_n of_o heart_n and_o spirit_n and_o mind_n their_o faith_n

if_o we_o pray_v cold_o or_o hear_v unprofitable_o or_o live_v loose_o if_o we_o do_v not_o do_v that_o which_o be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n our_o conscience_n will_v soon_o complain_v nay_o though_o

what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o 2._o wherein_o it_o consist_v first_o the_o cause_n of_o it_o be_v these_o five_o 1._o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n when_o a_o man_n have_v do_v evil_a and_o his_o

cause_n be_v the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n wrath_n for_o sin_n when_o know_v that_o we_o have_v sin_v and_o offend_v god_n we_o apprehend_v his_o wrath_n in_o our_o mind_n and_o behold_v the_o

6.15_o 16._o when_o we_o have_v incur_v god_n displeasure_n and_o our_o conscience_n see_v it_o when_o his_o anger_n rest_v upon_o we_o and_o our_o conscience_n feel_v it_o this_o be_v another_o cause_n of_o the_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n 3._o a_o three_o cause_n of_o the_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n be_v the_o fear_n of_o death_n and_o of_o â—ell_o when_o we_o know_v we_o have_v offend_v

when_o it_o fasten_v on_o the_o apprehension_n of_o it_o the_o apostle_n call_v â—t_a a_o fearful_a look_v for_o of_o judgement_n when_o conscience_n look_v for_o nothing_o else_o but_o for_o hell_n and_o damnation_n this_o must_v needs_o trouble_v conscience_n 4._o another_o cause_n be_v privative_a want_v of_o supportance_n when_o god_n do_v withhold_v from_o conscience_n the_o help_n of_o his_o spirit_n you_o know_v the_o spirit_n can_v enable_v conscience_n to_o undergo_v all_o its_o trouble_n the_o spirit_n can_v prompt_v it_o with_o mercy_n and_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n and_o

god_n do_v fasten_v on_o the_o conscience_n such_o thought_n as_o may_v affright_v and_o terrify_v it_o as_o thus_o god_n do_v not_o love_v i_o christ_n will_v not_o own_v i_o 〈◊〉_d have_v sin_v i_o
