A30298	An essay to revive the necessity of the ancient charity and piety wherein God's right in our estates and our obligations to maintain his service, religion, and charity is demonstrated and defended against the pretences of covetousness and appropriation : in two discourses written to a person of honour and vertue / by George Burghope.

prove_v from_o the_o obligation_n we_o have_v to_o truth_n gratitude_n and_o indemnity_n it_o be_v absolute_o necessary_a that_o every_o man_n shall_v worship_v his_o maker_n with_o the_o inward_a and_z if_o he_o be_v not_o incapacitate_v with_o outward_a homage_n and_o this_o will_v appear_v from_o the_o obligation_n we_o have_v to_o first_o truth_n second_o gratitude_n three_o indemnity_n or_o pardon_n of_o sin_n 1._o we_o be_v bind_v to_o acknowledge_v every_o truth_n but_o that_o god_n be_v a_o infinite_a be_v in_o himself_o and_o infinite_o good_a to_o we_o be_v a_o great_a and_o eternal_a truth_n and_o therefore_o aught_o to_o be_v recognise_v and_o acknowledge_v else_o we_o be_v injurious_a to_o truth_n itself_o 2._o we_o be_v bind_v to_o gratitude_n and_o that_o oblige_v we_o to_o acknowledge_v god_n bounty_n and_o as_o tenant_n swear_v fealty_n and_o do_v their_o homage_n as_o a_o acknowledgement_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v original_a right_n upon_o these_o term_n

then_o we_o have_v a_o three_o obligation_n which_o be_v the_o want_n we_o have_v of_o indemnity_n for_o we_o must_v be_v sensible_a of_o the_o depravation_n of_o our_o nature_n and_o our_o neglect_n of_o duty_n and_o consequent_o that_o we_o be_v obnoxious_a to_o the_o divine_a justice_n if_o it_o be_v not_o atone_v and_o reconcile_v to_o we_o and_o the_o way_n to_o obtain_v that_o be_v by_o

god_n to_o go_v to_o a_o feast_n or_o meet_v and_o leave_v the_o chapel_n for_o a_o hunting-match_n these_o and_o who_o be_v not_o such_o in_o this_o degenerate_a age_n do_v in_o effect_n and_o for_o that_o turn_n at_o least_o deny_v god_n and_o sin_n against_o truth_n gratitude_n and_o the_o pardon_v they_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o they_o use_v that_o daily_a bread_n which_o they_o be_v not_o
