with_o this_o light_n i_o do_v but_o plain_o unfold_v this_o this_o conviction_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v not_o in_o general_a only_o that_o all_o man_n be_v sinner_n but_o particular_a and_o strong_a thou_o be_v a_o sinner_n and_o thou_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o damnation_n and_o it_o be_v universal_a take_v in_o sin_n of_o nature_n sin_n of_o life_n sin_n of_o the_o understanding_n will_n and_o affection_n and_o it_o be_v not_o of_o sin_n only_o but_o of_o the_o misery_n by_o sin_n of_o the_o danger_n folly_n and_o madness_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o the_o aggravation_n that_o greaten_v sin_n as_o of_o stifle_v so_o many_o good_a motion_n withstand_v so_o many_o mean_n abuse_v so_o many_o mercy_n the_o holy_a ghost_n convince_v we_o thorough_o that_o we_o can_v have_v nothing_o to_o reply_v because_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o this_o before_o i_o be_o short_a belove_a unless_o the_o holy_a ghost_n convince_v there_o will_v be_v no_o convince_v our_o deceitful_a heart_n have_v so_o many_o wind_n and_o turn_n proud_a nature_n arm_n itself_o with_o defence_n as_o a_o hedge-hogg_a wind_n himself_o round_o and_o defend_v himself_o by_o his_o prick_v so_o you_o have_v many_o cloth_n themselves_o with_o strong_a word_n ill_a translation_n upon_o other_o frivolous_a mitigation_n the_o way_n of_o the_o multitude_n as_o with_o a_o coat_n of_o male_a to_o keep_v out_o this_o conviction_n that_o do_v not_o the_o holy_a ghost_n strike_v in_o hard_a with_o their_o conscience_n thou_o be_v the_o man_n this_o work_n will_v never_o be_v do_v quest._n but_o you_o will_v ask_v i_o this_o question_n how_o shall_v we_o know_v common_a conviction_n of_o conscience_n from_o this_o of_o the_o spirit_n for_o carnal_a man_n that_o go_v to_o hell_n be_v convince_v by_o a_o common_a conviction_n what_o be_v this_o save_a conviction_n i_o answer_v difference_n common_a conviction_n by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n be_v a_o weak_a conviction_n a_o little_a spark_n will_v show_v a_o little_a light_n but_o it_o will_v not_o enlighten_v a_o room_n it_o must_v be_v the_o work_n of_o some_o great_a light_n as_o the_o sun_n the_o spirit_n be_v a_o strong_a light_n strong_a than_o natural_a conscience_n natural_a conscience_n and_o common_a light_n be_v of_o some_o breach_n of_o the_o second_o table_n natural_a conscience_n never_o convince_v of_o corrupt_a nature_n but_o the_o spirit_n do_v most_o of_o all_o as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o david_n 51._o psal._n 51._o he_o resolve_v all_o into_o this_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v what_o shall_v i_o tell_v you_o of_o my_o murder_n and_o adultery_n in_o sin_n do_v my_o mother_n conceive_v i_o so_o a_o true_a christian_a do_v not_o look_v to_o the_o branch_n so_o much_o as_o to_o the_o root_n difference_n then_o again_o a_o natural_a conscience_n when_o it_o convince_v a_o man_n it_o be_v against_o his_o will_n it_o make_v he_o not_o the_o better_a man_n he_o mend_v not_o upon_o it_o but_o he_o be_v torture_v and_o torment_v but_o a_o man_n that_o be_v convince_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o take_v god_n part_n against_o himself_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o be_v lay_v open_a that_o he_o may_v find_v the_o great_a mercy_n so_o that_o there_o be_v a_o grand_a difference_n between_o common_a conviction_n of_o nature_n and_o the_o conviction_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o conviction_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v of_o a_o high_a nature_n then_o that_o of_o natural_a conscience_n i_o will_v send_v the_o comforter_n when_o he_o come_v he_o will_v great_o enlighten_v and_o overpower_v the_o soul_n again_o the_o conviction_n of_o the_o spirit_n stick_v by_o a_o man_n it_o never_o leave_v the_o soul_n but_o that_o of_o a_o ordinary_a conscience_n it_o be_v but_o for_o a_o flash_n and_o after_o they_o be_v worse_o than_o they_o be_v before_o i_o must_v cut_v off_o these_o these_o thing_n because_o the_o time_n be_v always_o past_a upon_o these_o occasion_n before_o we_o begin_v come_v we_o therefore_o to_o make_v some_o use._n 1_o the_o spirit_n do_v convince_v of_o sin_n but_o how_o by_o the_o ministry_n ordinary_o though_o not_o alone_o by_o the_o ministry_n therefore_o we_o must_v labour_v willing_o to_o submit_v to_o the_o ministry_n convince_v of_o sin_n conscience_n will_v convince_v first_o or_o last_o be_v it_o not_o better_a to_o have_v a_o save_a conviction_n now_o to_o purpose_n then_o to_o have_v a_o bare_a desperate_a conviction_n in_o hell_n o_o belove_v all_o the_o admonition_n we_o hear_v if_o we_o regard_v they_o not_o now_o we_o shall_v hereafter_o therefore_o labour_v to_o make_v good_a use_n of_o this_o sword_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o a_o good_a heart_n to_o wish_v o_o that_o the_o ministry_n may_v meet_v with_o my_o corruption_n that_o it_o may_v be_v discover_v to_o i_o to_o the_o full_a a_o true_a heart_n think_v sin_n the_o great_a enemy_n and_o of_o all_o other_o misery_n it_o desire_v to_o be_v free_v from_o the_o thraldom_n thereof_o for_o that_o defile_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o separate_v god_n from_o his_o creature_n it_o be_v that_o that_o throw_v angel_n out_o of_o heaven_n adam_n out_o of_o paradise_n what_o imbitter_v blessing_n and_o put_v a_o sting_n into_o all_o affliction_n but_o sin_n if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o sin_n we_o will_v take_v up_o any_o cross_n and_o bear_v any_o affliction_n more_o quiet_o than_o we_o do_v therefore_o as_o we_o desire_v to_o be_v save_v and_o to_o stand_v with_o comfort_n before_o god_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n let_v we_o desire_v and_o endeavour_v to_o be_v thorough_o convince_v of_o sin_n take_v heed_n of_o resist_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o ministry_n why_o be_v so_o many_o lead_v captive_a of_o their_o lust_n but_o because_o they_o hate_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n they_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o ahab_n do_v upon_o elias_n have_v thou_o find_v i_o o_o my_o enemy_n they_o natural_o be_v in_o love_n with_o their_o sin_n and_o there_o be_v none_o so_o much_o hate_v as_o those_o that_o present_v themselves_o to_o themselves_o a_o man_n take_v he_o in_o his_o pure_a natural_n be_v a_o foolish_a creature_n his_o heart_n rise_v against_o conviction_n you_o see_v the_o pharisee_n wise_a man_n learned_a man_n be_v convince_v they_o hate_v christ_n to_o the_o death_n why_o because_o he_o do_v untombe_v they_o and_o discover_v the_o dead_a man_n bone_n within_o so_o many_o now_o a_o day_n that_o be_v convince_v hate_v any_o that_o by_o life_n or_o speech_n discover_v their_o sin_n unto_o they_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a and_o in_o their_o power_n to_o the_o death_n thus_o the_o holy_a ghost_n convince_v of_o sin_n but_o before_o i_o leave_v this_o point_n let_v i_o add_v this_o from_o the_o reason_n or_o ground_n of_o this_o conviction_n because_o they_o believe_v not_o in_o i_o that_o unbelief_n make_v all_o other_o sin_n damnable_a no_o sin_n be_v damnable_a if_o we_o can_v believe_v and_o repent_v therefore_o we_o be_v convince_v of_o sin_n because_o we_o do_v not_o believe_v as_o we_o say_v of_o a_o man_n that_o be_v condemn_v because_o he_o can_v read_v therefore_o he_o be_v condemn_v he_o shall_v escape_v if_o he_o can_v read_v be_v for_o no_o great_a fault_n so_o it_o be_v here_o it_o be_v not_o believe_v in_o christ_n and_o repent_v make_v all_o other_o sin_n deadly_a the_o differ_v of_o one_o man_n from_o another_o be_v their_o faith_n and_o repentance_n some_o there_o be_v who_o sin_n be_v great_a than_o other_o yet_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o faith_n they_o work_v they_o out_o every_o day_n it_o be_v faith_n in_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n that_o take_v away_o the_o sting_n of_o the_o fiery_a

to_o my_o father_n and_o you_o shall_v see_v i_o no_o more_o it_o be_v a_o fit_a time_n for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o convince_v god_n people_n of_o righteousness_n when_o they_o be_v convince_v

than_o what_o be_v poverty_n and_o what_o be_v imprisonment_n not_o worthy_a to_o be_v reckon_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o glory_n that_o shall_v be_v reveal_v again_o where_o the_o holy_a ghost_n

shall_v not_o need_v to_o enlarge_v this_o you_o know_v whether_o you_o be_v convince_v to_o end_v the_o point_n i_o beseech_v you_o labour_n to_o live_v by_o this_o faith_n use_v here_o be_v a_o

a_o christian_a to_o make_v use_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n when_o you_o find_v nature_n pollute_v go_v to_o god_n and_o say_v lord_n my_o nature_n though_o foul_a in_o itself_o yet_o be_v holy_a and_o pure_a in_o christ_n he_o take_v the_o weakness_n of_o the_o humane_a nature_n unto_o he_o that_o he_o may_v communicate_v the_o worth_n and_o efficacy_n of_o his_o divine_a nature_n unto_o i_o

he_o and_o ourselves_o one_o i_o shall_v enlarge_v the_o point_n further_o but_o i_o will_v speak_v a_o word_n of_o the_o reason_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o comforter_n may_v and_o shall_v convince_v of_o righteousness_n because_o i_o go_v to_o the_o father_n what_o strength_n be_v there_o in_o that_o reason_n why_o this_o christ_n take_v upon_o he_o to_o be_v our_o surety_n and_o he_o must_v acquit_v we_o of_o all_o our_o sin_n ere_o he_o can_v go_v to_o his_o father_n if_o one_o sin_n have_v be_v unsatisfied_a for_o he_o can_v not_o have_v go_v to_o his_o father_n but_o now_o he_o be_v go_v to_o his_o father_n therefore_o all_o our_o sin_n be_v satisfy_v for_o so_o that_o now_o the_o ascension_n of_o christ_n be_v a_o sufficient_a pledge_n to_o i_o that_o my_o person_n be_v accept_v and_o my_o sin_n pardon_v because_o he_o be_v go_v to_o his_o father_n to_o appear_v before_o the_o father_n for_o we_o which_o he_o can_v not_o have_v do_v have_v he_o not_o fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n but_o wherefore_o do_v he_o go_v to_o the_o father_n why_o to_o make_v application_n of_o what_o he_o have_v wrought_v if_o christ_n shall_v not_o have_v go_v to_o the_o father_n he_o can_v not_o have_v send_v the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o we_o therefore_o there_o be_v great_a use_n of_o this_o go_n to_o his_o father_n satan_n plead_v before_o god_n we_o be_v such_o and_o such_o i_o but_o say_v christ_n i_o have_v shed_v my_o blood_n for_o they_o and_o there_o he_o perfume_v all_o our_o weak_a prayer_n if_o we_o be_v not_o imperfect_a what_o need_n we_o a_o mediator_n in_o heaven_n therefore_o he_o be_v go_v to_o heaven_n to_o disannul_v all_o satan_n accusation_n and_o to_o provide_v a_o place_n for_o we_o die_v when_o we_o will_v our_o place_n be_v ready_a then_o again_o he_o be_v go_v to_o the_o father_n to_o clothe_v we_o with_o a_o sweet_a relation_n to_o make_v the_o father_n our_o father_n for_o he_o say_v john_n 12.17_o i_o go_v to_o my_o father_n and_o to_o your_o father_n so_o that_o he_o be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o call_v we_o brethren_n by_o virtue_n of_o this_o we_o may_v go_v to_o god_n and_o call_v he_o father_n &_o when_o we_o die_v we_o may_v without_o presumption_n say_v father_n into_o thy_o hand_n i_o commend_v my_o spirit_n for_o the_o father_n love_v we_o as_o he_o love_v christ_n with_o one_o and_o the_o same_o love_n though_o in_o a_o far_o different_a degree_n what_o a_o comfort_n be_v this_o that_o when_o we_o die_v we_o go_v to_o our_o father_n that_o be_v better_a than_o any_o earthly_a father_n therefore_o it_o shall_v

to_o see_v his_o son_n joseph_n so_o when_o death_n be_v send_v to_o transport_v we_o to_o christ_n to_o heaven_n have_v we_o a_o strong_a faith_n we_o shall_v be_v exceed_o glad_a and_o let_v we_o
