of_o the_o lord_n may_v be_v turn_v away_o from_o you_o and_o you_o may_v escape_v his_o impendent_a judgement_n you_o seem_v to_o be_v very_o desirous_a to_o have_v the_o lord_n still_o to_o be_v

before_o god_n in_o his_o own_o institute_v worship_n with_o acceptation_n and_o in_o that_o direction_n there_o be_v three_o particular_n considerable_a 1._o a_o discovery_n of_o a_o divine_a rule_n

take_v from_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o thing_n he_o have_v show_v thou_o oh_o man_n what_o be_v good_a another_o from_o the_o will_n and_o command_n of_o god_n concern_v these_o thing_n and_o what_o do_v the_o lord_n require_v of_o thou_o these_o thing_n be_v good_a to_o do_v just_o to_o love_v mercy_n and_o to_o walk_v humble_o with_o god_n and_o these_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o god_n require_v and_o you_o must_v mind_n and_o attend_v unto_o if_o you_o will_v so_o appear_v before_o god_n in_o his_o worship_n as_o to_o have_v the_o lord_n pacify_v to_o you_o and_o his_o anger_n turn_v away_o from_o you_o the_o whole_a of_o which_o may_v be_v thus_o sum_v up_o doct._n that_o a_o people_n who_o will_v humble_v themselves_o aright_o before_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v the_o difference_n between_o he_o and_o they_o comprimise_v and_o will_v come_v before_o the_o lord_n so_o as_o to_o be_v accept_v with_o he_o must_v not_o rest_v in_o and_o take_v up_o with_o the_o external_a duty_n of_o god_n worship_n but_o attend_v unto_o those_o thing_n in_o their_o practice_n that_o be_v expressive_a of_o real_a holiness_n and_o obedience_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o what_o he_o command_v and_o require_v of_o they_o before_o i_o proceed_v to_o prove_v and_o improve_v this_o proposition_n it_o will_v be_v needful_a to_o premise_v this_o in_o the_o first_o place_n namely_o that_o the_o answer_n that_o the_o prophet_n in_o the_o text_n give_v to_o this_o people_n question_n and_o the_o conclusion_n i_o have_v now_o form_v from_o it_o do_v not_o respect_v the_o

discharge_v we_o from_o the_o debt_n of_o sin_n when_o we_o do_v our_o duty_n we_o do_v but_o what_o we_o ought_v and_o the_o do_v what_o we_o ought_v can_v be_v a_o compensation_n for_o the_o do_v of_o what_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v do_v if_o we_o come_v short_a in_o our_o duty_n that_o further_o increase_v the_o debt_n of_o sin_n but_o though_o we_o perform_v our_o duty_n that_o do_v not_o lessen_v the_o former_a debt_n we_o be_v debtor_n still_o to_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n because_o we_o have_v violate_v his_o holy_a law_n the_o sanction_n of_o which_o be_v the_o soul_n that_o sin_n shall_v die_v and_o be_v utter_o insolvent_a or_o uncapable_a to_o pay_v this_o debt_n by_o the_o most_o exact_a and_o continue_a obedience_n that_o we_o can_v yield_v to_o the_o

satisfy_v for_o sin_n in_o what_o way_n and_o upon_o what_o account_n be_v god_n reconcile_v to_o sinner_n what_o be_v the_o meritorious_a and_o procure_a cause_n of_o the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n to_o a_o person_n or_o people_n that_o have_v provoke_v his_o anger_n against_o they_o by_o their_o sin_n he_o have_v show_v thou_o oh_o man_n in_o his_o word_n that_o it_o be_v not_o any_o

but_o if_o the_o question_n be_v what_o it_o be_v that_o god_n require_v of_o man_n according_a to_o the_o term_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n that_o will_v have_v the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n

slight_a external_a devotion_n a_o outside_n fast_v or_o confess_v of_o sin_n and_o humble_v yourself_o for_o a_o day_n but_o that_o in_o conjunction_n with_o a_o serious_a and_o hearty_a performance_n of_o these_o duty_n you_o do_v just_o and_o love_n mercy_n and_o walk_v humble_o with_o god_n our_o prophet_n do_v suppose_v god_n acceptance_n of_o the_o atonement_n for_o sin_n make_v by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o let_v they_o know_v that_o without_o a_o performance_n of_o the_o necessary_a duty_n of_o the_o gospel_n their_o claim_n to_o that_o atonement_n will_v be_v

righteous_a law_n of_o god_n have_v threaten_v sin_n with_o death_n it_o can_v not_o be_v reasonable_o suppose_v 10.4_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o of_o goat_n shall_v take_v away_o sin_n and_o therefore_o the_o heathen_n to_o supply_v that_o defect_n arbitrantur_fw-la have_v some_o natural_a or_o rather_o traditional_a knowledge_n of_o the_o necessity_n of_o sacrifice_n to_o make_v
