neglect_n and_o abuse_v of_o this_o they_o shall_v be_v judge_v and_o not_o mere_o for_o sin_v against_o the_o law_n that_o be_v give_v we_o in_o pure_a innocency_n so_o that_o christ_n as_o

who_o ought_v to_o go_v to_o heaven_n and_o who_o to_o hell_n for_o ever_o according_a to_o the_o law_n by_o which_o they_o must_v then_o be_v judge_v 1._o as_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a law_n by_o which_o they_o must_v be_v judge_v so_o will_v there_o then_o be_v a_o twofold_a accusation_n the_o first_o will_v be_v that_o they_o be_v sinner_n and_o so_o have_v violate_v the_o law_n of_o god_n they_o deserve_v everlasting_a death_n according_a to_o that_o law_n if_o no_o defence_n can_v be_v make_v this_o one_o accusation_n will_v condemn_v all_o the_o world_n for_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o all_o be_v sinner_n and_o as_o certain_a that_o all_o sin_n deserve_v death_n the_o only_a defence_n against_o this_o accusation_n ●ieth_v in_o this_o plea_n confess_v the_o charge_n we_o must_v plead_v that_o christ_n have_v satisfy_v for_o sin_n and_o upon_o that_o consideration_n god_n have_v forgive_v we_o and_o therefore_o be_v forgive_v we_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v punish_v to_o prove_v this_o we_o must_v show_v the_o pardon_n under_o god_n hand_n in_o the_o gospel_n but_o because_o this_o pardon_v don_v act_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v forgive_v none_o but_o those_o that_o repent_v and_o believe_v and_o so_o return_v to_o god_n and_o to_o sincere_a obedience_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v therefore_o the_o next_o accusation_n will_v be_v that_o we_o do_v not_o

true_a god_n and_o conscience_n who_o speak_v the_o truth_n may_v well_o be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o accuser_n where_o it_o be_v false_a it_o can_v be_v only_o the_o work_n of_o satan_n the_o

be_v evangilical_o righteous_a in_o himself_o and_o therefore_o have_v part_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v instead_o of_o a_o legal_a righteousness_n to_o he_o in_o all_o thing_n else_o as_o have_v procure_v he_o a_o pardon_n of_o all_o his_o sin_n and_o a_o right_n to_o everlasting_a glory_n and_o thus_o we_o must_v then_o be_v justify_v by_o christ_n satisfaction_n only_o against_o the_o accusation_n of_o be_v sinner_n in_o general_a and_o of_o deserve_a god_n wrath_n for_o the_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n of_o work_n but_o we_o must_v be_v justify_v by_o our_o faith_n

the_o promise_n and_o so_o have_v no_o part_n in_o christ_n and_o his_o benefit_n so_o that_o in_o sum_n you_o see_v that_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o day_n will_v be_v to_o inquire_v whether_o be_v all_o know_a sinner_n we_o have_v accept_v of_o christ_n upon_o his_o term_n and_o so_o have_v right_o in_o he_o and_o his_o benefit_n or_o not_o whether_o they_o have_v forsake_v this_o vain_a

that_o he_o can_v part_v with_o his_o substance_n or_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n to_o those_o use_v which_o he_o shall_v require_v they_o even_o to_o relieve_v his_o servant_n in_o want_n and_o
