to_o any_o sin_n that_o i_o shall_v think_v to_o cover_v it_o by_o another_o sin_n by_o add_v one_o sin_n to_o another_o to_o think_v to_o shift_v for_o my_o credit_n or_o esteem_v by_o add_v more_o

therefore_o i_o have_v learn_v rather_o to_o endure_v any_o thing_n than_o to_o multiply_v iniquity_n indeed_o before_o i_o come_v to_o understand_v jesus_n christ_n i_o think_v sin_n be_v a_o evil_a

the_o seven_o thing_n that_o be_v hold_v forth_o in_o the_o gospel_n that_o call_v for_o a_o conversation_n beseem_v be_v this_o the_o great_a price_n of_o soul_n there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o

what_o a_o price_n he_o put_v upon_o man_n soul_n the_o lord_n see_v that_o man_n by_o sin_n have_v undo_v themselves_o and_o that_o those_o soul_n that_o he_o make_v be_v like_a to_o perish_v to_o

that_o soul_n may_v not_o perish_v if_o the_o lord_n shall_v have_v say_v concern_v any_o one_o soul_n i_o do_v so_o high_o prize_v this_o soul_n and_o account_v the_o worth_n of_o it_o to_o be_v

this_o have_v be_v a_o great_a testimony_n of_o god_n esteem_n of_o a_o soul_n but_o know_v that_o the_o gospel_n hold_v forth_o a_o high_a esteem_n of_o a_o soul_n than_o this_o come_v to_o when_o god_n shall_v say_v rather_o than_o this_o and_o the_o other_o soul_n shall_v perish_v i_o will_v send_v my_o son_n to_o be_v make_v a_o curse_n this_o the_o gospel_n hold_v forth_o this_o be_v infinite_o a_o high_a price_n that_o god_n put_v upon_o a_o soul_n you_o know_v therefore_o what_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o 1_o pet._n 1._o 18_o 19_o forasmuch_o as_o you_o know_v that_o you_o be_v

but_o that_o we_o shall_v come_v more_o full_o to_o when_o we_o speak_v how_o our_o conversation_n shall_v be_v become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n but_o i_o speak_v this_o in_o this_o point_n as_o a_o preparation_n to_o that_o &_o especial_o to_o young_a professor_n that_o have_v be_v wrought_v upon_o by_o the_o word_n within_o these_o few_o year_n since_o there_o have_v be_v more_o freedom_n of_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o i_o very_o believe_v that_o divers_a of_o you_o in_o this_o congregation_n do_v know_v many_o young_a one_o and_o other_o that_o have_v be_v wrought_v upon_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n that_o for_o the_o first_o year_n be_v very_o exact_a and_o very_o careful_a of_o their_o life_n and_o very_o punctual_a in_o every_o thing_n but_o you_o now_o see_v they_o begin_v to_o grow_v loose_a and_o wanton_a and_o vain_a in_o their_o conversation_n oh_o this_o be_v a_o sad_a and_o a_o evil_a thing_n if_o you_o will_v be_v careful_a of_o your_o conversation_n observe_v this_o seven_o rule_n be_v not_o only_o careful_a at_o the_o first_o work_n of_o god_n upon_o you_o when_o you_o begin_v to_o be_v enlighten_v but_o in_o the_o constant_a course_n of_o your_o life_n oh_o give_v i_o a_o professor_n of_o religion_n that_o be_v wrought_v upon_o when_o he_o be_v a_o youth_n or_o a_o young_a maid_n and_o yet_o continue_v till_o they_o be_v old_a disciple_n in_o a_o constant_a way_n of_o holiness_n and_o strictness_n oh_o they_o be_v the_o most_o beautiful_a object_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n to_o behold_v the_o sun_n in_o the_o firmament_n be_v not_o so_o glorious_a as_o a_o ancient_a professor_n of_o religion_n that_o have_v continue_v constant_a in_o the_o way_n of_o godliness_n from_o his_o youth_n that_o can_v say_v as_o good_a obadiah_n once_o say_v 1_o king_n 18._o 12._o i_o have_v fear_v the_o lord_n from_o my_o youth_n and_o my_o conscience_n though_o it_o tell_v i_o of_o many_o fail_n and_o weakness_n yet_o my_o conscience_n excuse_v i_o in_o this_o that_o i_o have_v endeavour_v with_o a_o good_a conscience_n to_o walk_v with_o god_n and_o without_o offence_n to_o man_n and_o not_o give_v way_n to_o myself_o in_o any_o way_n of_o looseness_n since_o god_n make_v know_v himself_o to_o i_o oh_o such_o may_v have_v a_o abundance_n entrance_n into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o die_v with_o abundance_n of_o comfort_n but_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o first_o point_n that_o christian_n ought_v to_o be_v careful_a of_o their_o conversation_n we_o come_v now_o to_o the_o second_o and_o that_o be_v the_o main_a point_n in_o the_o text._n let_v your_o conversation_n be_v as_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n 2._o doct._n every_o kind_n of_o conversation_n of_o professor_n be_v not_o enough_o it_o must_v rise_v to_o that_o height_n as_o must_v be_v suitable_a to_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n meet_v for_o the_o gospel_n that_o they_o do_v profess_v that_o be_v our_o point_n now_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o particular_n what_o conversation_n it_o be_v that_o be_v meet_v for_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n i_o give_v you_o the_o head_n in_o the_o open_n of_o it_o but_o now_o i_o shall_v speak_v to_o they_o first_o that_o conversation_n that_o be_v meet_v and_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n must_v be_v a_o conversation_n raise_v to_o a_o high_a degree_n than_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n will_v raise_v it_o that_o conversation_n that_o be_v no_o high_a than_o possible_o may_v be_v raise_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n certain_o that_o be_v not_o a_o conversation_n become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v beneath_o not_o fit_a for_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n as_o thus_o suppose_v a_o man_n in_o his_o boat_n here_o in_o the_o thames_n row_n very_o exact_o i_o but_o this_o be_v not_o a_o work_n suitable_a to_o show_v the_o skill_n of_o a_o navigator_n of_o one_o that_o profess_v the_o art_n of_o navigation_n it_o be_v beneath_o that_o why_o so_o to_o live_v exact_o according_a to_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n it_o be_v beneath_o the_o conversation_n that_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n if_o so_o be_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v make_v his_o boast_n that_o he_o have_v great_a skill_n in_o the_o art_n of_o navigation_n and_o how_o will_v he_o show_v this_o skill_n he_o will_v go_v into_o a_o boat_n and_o there_o he_o will_v row_v over_o the_o thames_n and_o by_o that_o you_o may_v see_v what_o a_o mighty_a navigator_n he_o be_v this_o will_v be_v ridiculous_a to_o any_o man_n and_o so_o if_o one_o that_o profess_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n will_v manifest_v that_o he_o be_v a_o good_a christian_a what_o do_v he_o do_v the_o life_n that_o he_o live_v it_o be_v no_o other_o than_o a_o man_n by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n may_v be_v enable_v to_o this_o be_v even_o as_o ridiculous_a as_o the_o other_o 1._o as_o now_o for_o instance_n the_o light_n of_o nature_n that_o will_v teach_v this_o that_o we_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n the_o heathen_n have_v worship_v god_n in_o their_o way_n 2._o yea_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n will_v teach_v that_o we_o must_v live_v just_o among_o man_n yea_o and_o that_o we_o must_v do_v as_o we_o will_v be_v do_v to_o this_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n will_v teach_v many_o of_o the_o heathen_n have_v have_v that_o principle_n to_o be_v just_a with_o man_n to_o do_v as_o we_o will_v be_v do_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n condemn_v gross_a sin_n of_o drunkenness_n adultery_n swear_v etc._n etc._n i_o can_v give_v you_o many_o instance_n in_o the_o law_n of_o heathen_n punish_v those_o sin_n very_o severe_o and_o some_o of_o they_o with_o death_n 3._o yea_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n will_v rise_v thus_o high_a that_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v conscientious_a shall_v make_v conscience_n of_o secret_a sin_n of_o sin_n that_o none_o in_o the_o world_n can_v know_v of_o or_o be_v ever_o like_a to_o know_v of_o as_o i_o remember_v sometime_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o of_o one_o of_o the_o heathen_n that_o do_v but_o owe_v for_o a_o pair_n of_o shoe_n to_o a_o shoe_n maker_n and_o no_o body_n know_v it_o but_o only_o the_o shoemaker_n himself_o the_o shoemaker_n die_v no_o body_n can_v challenge_v this_o of_o he_o yet_o his_o conscience_n will_v never_o let_v he_o be_v at_o quiet_a until_o he_o run_v and_o throw_v the_o money_n into_o the_o shop_n and_o say_v though_o he_o be_v dead_a to_o other_o yet_o he_o be_v not_o dead_a to_o i_o whereas_o he_o have_v a_o temptation_n to_o have_v keep_v it_o because_o no_o body_n can_v challenge_v it_o he_o know_v it_o be_v not_o he_o he_o know_v it_o be_v either_o the_o child_n or_o executor_n and_o so_o he_o restortd_v it_o many_o particular_n may_v be_v name_v to_o show_v how_o far_o we_o may_v go_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n but_o now_o i_o only_o bring_v it_o in_o to_o this_o end_n to_o show_v that_o if_o we_o will_v have_v our_o conversation_n such_o as_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n we_o must_v go_v beyond_o what_o ever_o any_o have_v do_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n and_o yet_o oh_o lord_n how_o short_a do_v many_o professor_n of_o religion_n come_v of_o this_o how_o many_o that_o will_v profess_v they_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v by_o christ_n i_o suppose_v there_o be_v not_o any_o one_o in_o this_o congregation_n or_o if_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o every_o one_o house_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o parish_n they_o will_v say_v they_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o yet_o what_o worship_n of_o god_n be_v there_o and_o what_o justice_n be_v there_o among_o man_n to_o do_v as_o they_o will_v be_v do_v by_o nay_o this_o be_v a_o rule_n that_o will_v examine_v many_o professor_n of_o religion_n and_o their_o
