they_o be_v amaze_v at_o the_o incredible_a wealth_n they_o find_v in_o it_o they_o have_v such_o a_o spoil_n that_o it_o grow_v a_o proverb_n among_o they_o if_o any_o grow_v rich_a on_o a_o sudden_a they_o use_v to_o say_v he_o have_v be_v at_o the_o sack_n of_o constantinople_n it_o be_v so_o sottish_a a_o thing_n for_o a_o people_n to_o lose_v themselves_o for_o want_n of_o money_n when_o

that_o know_v how_o vile_a a_o people_n they_o be_v can_v not_o but_o applaud_v the_o divine_a justice_n in_o it_o they_o can_v not_o but_o acknowledge_v it_o be_v the_o just_a reward_n of_o their_o

so_o illustrate_v as_o it_o be_v by_o his_o great_a patience_n and_o long-suffering_a but_o second_o beside_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o justice_n god_n show_v forth_o his_o mercy_n in_o it_o likewise_o there_o be_v some_o kind_n of_o mercy_n in_o it_o whenever_o he_o punish_v in_o his_o judgement_n he_o remember_v mercy_n say_v the_o prophet_n it_o be_v a_o riddle_n to_o we_o now_o but_o hereafter_o we_o shall_v see_v it_o god_n never_o cut_v off_o a_o sinner_n betimes_o but_o even_o in_o that_o judgement_n there_o be_v mercy_n though_o we_o see_v it_o not_o in_o this_o world_n but_o god_n show_v forth_o his_o mercy_n in_o this_o world_n in_o long-suffering_a in_o forbear_v of_o sinner_n he_o show_v his_o mercy_n all_o the_o while_o he_o forbear_v when_o it_o be_v so_o long_o before_o he_o strike_v he_o show_v how_o unwilling_a he_o be_v to_o strike_v at_o all_o he_o will_v not_o do_v it_o if_o man_n will_v take_v any_o warning_n he_o look_v upon_o we_o as_o his_o own_o creature_n creature_n that_o can_v live_v without_o he_o no_o not_o one_o minute_n of_o our_o life_n good_a god_n do_v we_o say_v he_o forbear_v we_o he_o not_o only_o let_v we_o live_v but_o he_o keep_v we_o he_o maintain_v we_o all_o the_o while_n in_o our_o be_v all_o the_o while_o he_o wait_v to_o be_v friend_n with_o we_o he_o will_v not_o have_v we_o die_v in_o his_o displeasure_n every_o bit_n

of_o his_o protestation_n as_o i_o live_v say_v the_o lord_n i_o will_v not_o the_o death_n of_o a_o sinner_n why_o will_v you_o die_v yet_o turn_v yourselves_o and_o live_v without_o turn_v from_o

sin_v it_o shall_v die_v the_o gospel_n have_v but_o one_o way_n to_o relieve_v he_o that_o be_v by_o repentance_n unto_o life_n it_o be_v that_o which_o christ_n come_v for_o to_o call_v sinner_n to_o repentance_n it_o be_v that_o which_o he_o preach_v repent_v you_o and_o believe_v the_o gospel_n it_o be_v that_o for_o which_o he_o die_v that_o god_n may_v forgive_v we_o upon_o our_o repentance_n this_o be_v therefore_o so_o indispensable_o necessary_a the_o apostle_n think_v fit_a to_o express_v it_o in_o my_o text_n as_o the_o condition_n on_o which_o we_o be_v to_o be_v save_v and_o no_o otherwise_o this_o be_v it_o which_o i_o be_o next_o to_o show_v as_o to_o our_o repentance_n in_o what_o manner_n we_o be_v help_v and_o assist_v by_o the_o long-suffering_a of_o god_n it_o be_v first_o the_o most_o likely_a way_n to_o bring_v man_n to_o repentance_n second_o in_o fact_n it_o be_v that_o which_o oftentimes_o have_v prevail_v three_o it_o be_v the_o last_o the_o only_a way_n it_o can_v be_v do_v when_o this_o be_v go_v all_o be_v go_v there_o be_v no_o hope_n for_o they_o that_o have_v out-sinned_n the_o patience_n and_o long-suffering_a of_o god_n first_o it_o be_v a_o rational_a way_n the_o most_o likely_a to_o bring_v we_o to_o repentance_n because_o it_o give_v we_o divers_a thing_n which_o be_v necessary_a for_o it_o
