word_n preach_v and_o have_v not_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o live_a god_n therein_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o have_v their_o heart_n break_v nor_o their_o spirit_n make_v contrite_a for_o their_o

the_o word_n come_v home_o with_o power_n but_o yet_o this_o be_v but_o general_a wherefore_o more_o particular_o first_o then_o the_o word_n work_v effectual_o to_o this_o purpose_n when_o it_o find_v out_o the_o sinner_n and_o his_o sin_n and_o shall_v convince_v he_o that_o it_o have_v find_v he_o out_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o our_o first_o father_n when_o he_o have_v sin_v he_o seek_v to_o hide_v himself_o from_o god_n he_o get_v among_o the_o tree_n of_o the_o garden_n and_o there_o he_o shroud_n himself_o but_o yet_o not_o think_v himself_o secure_a he_o cover_v himself_o with_o

lord_n god_n walk_v in_o the_o garden_n and_o now_o adam_n what_o do_v you_o mean_v to_o do_v why_o as_o yet_o he_o seulk_v and_o hide_v his_o head_n and_o seek_v yet_o to_o lie_v undiscovered_a but_o behold_v the_o voice_n cry_v out_o adam_z and_o now_o he_o begin_v to_o tremble_v adam_n where_o be_v thou_o say_v god_n and_o now_o adam_n be_v make_v to_o answer_n but_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o

the_o arm_n of_o god._n it_o find_v out_o it_o single_v out_o the_o sinner_n the_o sinner_n find_v it_o so_o it_o find_v out_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o sinner_n it_o unravel_v his_o whole_a life_n it_o strip_v he_o and_o lay_v he_o naked_a in_o his_o own_o sight_n before_o the_o face_n of_o god_n neither_o can_v the_o sinner_n nor_o his_o wickedness_n be_v long_o hide_v and_o cover_v and_o now_o

and_o therefore_o command_v his_o servant_n nathan_n to_o go_v home_o not_o only_o to_o david_n ear_n but_o to_o david_n conscience_n well_o david_n now_o must_v fall_v say_v nathan_n thou_o be_v

show_v 3._o a_o three_o instance_n be_v that_o of_o saul_n he_o have_v hear_v many_o a_o sermon_n and_o be_v become_v a_o great_a professor_n yea_o he_o be_v more_o zealous_a than_o be_v many_o of_o

god_n make_v enquiry_n after_o his_o sin_n saul_n saul_n why_o persecute_v thou_o i_o say_v jesus_n and_o then_o he_o can_v stand_v no_o long_o for_o than_o his_o heart_n break_v than_o he_o fall_v
