question_n from_o a_o double_a interpretation_n which_o be_v give_v of_o those_o word_n the_o end_n of_o all_o thing_n be_v at_o hand_n the_o one_o relate_v to_o this_o life_n the_o other_o to_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v 1._o some_o modern_a interpreter_n of_o good_a note_n for_o their_o learning_n and_o judgement_n other_o dr._n hammond_n mr._n jos_n mede_n and_o other_o do_v understand_v those_o word_n not_o to_o be_v mean_v of_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n or_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n but_o of_o the_o end_n of_o the_o jewish_a commonwealth_n by_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o temple_n and_o the_o city_n of_o jerusalem_n together_o with_o the_o general_n calamity_n of_o that_o people_n by_o their_o captivity_n and_o dispersion_n throughout_o the_o world_n by_o the_o power_n and_o victory_n of_o the_o roman_n often_o foretell_v by_o our_o saviour_n and_o call_v the_o abomination_n of_o desolation_n for_o the_o avoid_n of_o which_o calamity_n the_o apostle_n advise_v the_o christian_a jew_n to_o who_o he_o direct_v this_o epistle_n to_o be_v sober_a and_o to_o watch_v unto_o prayer_n as_o hopeful_a mean_n to_o save_v they_o from_o the_o extremity_n of_o that_o calamity_n add_v further_a in_o this_o verse_n another_o special_a point_n of_o advice_n to_o the_o same_o end_n to_o wit_n the_o exercise_n of_o a_o fervent_a charity_n if_o this_o sense_n of_o the_o apostle_n word_n be_v allow_v suppose_v the_o end_n of_o all_o thing_n so_o near_o approach_v as_o be_v the_o time_n of_o that_o public_a calamity_n which_o sense_n by_o the_o forementioned_a interpreter_n be_v also_o apply_v to_o many_o other_o text_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n as_o very_o near_o i_o say_v if_o this_o be_v the_o apostle_n sense_n in_o this_o place_n no_o doubt_n can_v be_v make_v of_o this_o effect_n of_o charity_n procure_v deliverance_n from_o punishment_n of_o sin_n in_o this_o life_n on_o the_o other_o side_n if_o by_o the_o end_n of_o all_o thing_n must_v be_v understand_v that_o general_n end_v which_o be_v to_o come_v at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n according_a to_o the_o more_o ordinary_a interpretation_n of_o the_o word_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o this_o benefit_n of_o charity_n will_v extend_v to_o another_o life_n but_o because_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n as_o have_v be_v say_v before_o be_v both_o in_o this_o life_n and_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v without_o determine_v the_o true_a sense_n of_o the_o forego_n verse_n i_o doubt_v not_o to_o conclude_v that_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n express_v by_o the_o cover_n thereof_o declare_v by_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o to_o be_v limit_v to_o this_o or_o the_o other_o life_n but_o may_v be_v understand_v of_o both_o and_o will_v be_v verify_v either_o in_o both_o or_o at_o least_o in_o one_o of_o these_o two_o life_n that_o be_v wheresoever_o this_o virtue_n of_o charity_n be_v find_v it_o will_v be_v available_a by_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n at_o least_o to_o some_o kind_n of_o remission_n of_o sin_n i._n e._n of_o the_o punishment_n thereof_o either_o in_o this_o life_n and_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v too_o or_o else_o in_o one_o of_o they_o more_o or_o less_o according_a to_o the_o sincerity_n and_o degree_n of_o the_o charity_n if_o the_o charity_n be_v the_o fruit_n of_o a_o unfeigned_a faith_n accompany_v with_o repentance_n as_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v if_o it_o be_v sincere_a it_o will_v undoubted_o be_v available_a to_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o other_o world_n if_o not_o also_o to_o the_o remission_n of_o punishment_n in_o this_o world_n which_o be_v very_o hopeful_a though_o not_o so_o certain_a in_o all_o respect_n as_o be_v the_o remission_n of_o future_a punishment_n in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v because_o there_o be_v some_o sort_n of_o punishment_n of_o sin_n in_o this_o life_n which_o as_o be_v show_v before_o be_v in_o themselves_o necessary_a and_o inseparable_a consequent_n of_o the_o sin_n and_o so_o unavoidable_a in_o their_o nature_n as_o shame_n and_o dishonour_v in_o sin_n know_v to_o the_o world_n privation_n of_o benefit_n consequent_a to_o other_o sin_n sorrow_n and_o remorse_n of_o conscience_n common_a to_o all_o sin_n whereof_o a_o sinner_n be_v convince_v beside_o some_o other_o sort_n of_o punishment_n in_o this_o life_n not_o so_o necessary_a in_o their_o kind_n may_v be_v consequent_a to_o the_o sin_n by_o the_o justice_n and_o wisdom_n and_o also_o by_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n which_o therefore_o he_o may_v refuse_v to_o remit_v in_o this_o life_n where_o he_o intend_v a_o full_a remission_n in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v this_o be_v plain_a in_o the_o case_n of_o david_n 2_o sam._n 12._o many_o severe_a punishment_n be_v threaten_v by_o nathan_n the_o prophet_n to_o be_v execute_v upon_o david_n for_o his_o scandalous_a sin_n of_o adultery_n and_o murder_n which_o be_v never_o remit_v but_o punctual_o execute_v upon_o he_o notwithstanding_o that_o upon_o his_o repentance_n testify_v by_o his_o humble_a confession_n the_o prophet_n assure_v he_o that_o

do_v not_o thereby_o deprive_v himself_o of_o liberty_n to_o forbear_v such_o execution_n of_o punishment_n according_a to_o his_o wisdom_n and_o goodness_n by_o this_o example_n and_o several_a other_o that_o may_v be_v allege_v if_o it_o be_v needful_a in_o this_o place_n it_o appear_v that_o a_o part_n of_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v remit_v where_o the_o whole_a be_v not_o which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o common_a case_n of_o mankind_n fall_v under_o the_o guilt_n and_o punishment_n of_o adam_n sin_n for_o it_o be_v experimental_o evident_a 3._o gen._n 3._o that_o the_o whole_a punishment_n be_v not_o remit_v to_o any_o man_n because_o all_o be_v know_v to_o suffer_v many_o penalty_n threaten_v in_o this_o life_n beside_o that_o common_a one_o of_o temporal_a

proceed_v from_o a_o true_a faith_n and_o accompany_v with_o a_o unfeigned_a repentance_n will_v certain_o deliver_v the_o charitable_a person_n from_o the_o everlasting_a punishment_n of_o another_o
