say_v himself_o that_o though_o he_o have_v make_v they_o yet_o he_o will_v have_v no_o mercy_n on_o they_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o general_n be_v no_o sufficient_a prop_n to_o build_v hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o ob._n but_o here_o i_o think_v i_o hear_v some_o kind_n object_n of_o people_n ready_a to_o object_n against_o i_o and_o say_v what_o do_v you_o go_v about_o to_o beat_v we_o off_o from_o our_o hope_n of_o heaven_n will_v you_o bereave_v we_o of_o our_o hope_n and_o drive_v we_o into_o despair_n 1._o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o all_o you_o that_o 1._o have_v good_a and_o well_o ground_v hope_n for_o heaven_n i_o will_v not_o for_o all_o the_o world_n stagger_v your_o hope_n but_o as_o the_o great_a wind_n do_v common_o root_v up_o and_o blow_v down_o the_o

you_o up_o and_o prevent_v you_o from_o fall_v into_o presumption_n which_o be_v the_o more_o dangerous_a error_n of_o the_o two_o because_o where_o the_o rock_n of_o desperation_n have_v split_v thousand_o the_o rock_n of_o presumption_n have_v split_v its_o ten_o thousand_o 3._o my_o intention_n in_o what_o have_v be_v say_v be_v not_o to_o make_v you_o cast_v away_o all_o your_o hope_n for_o heaven_n but_o only_o your_o false_a and_o ill_o ground_v hope_n i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o pull_v down_o all_o your_o totter_a hope_n and_o to_o build_v they_o upon_o a_o more_o sure_a

that_o wicked_a man_n do_v nourish_v in_o their_o heart_n most_o hope_n for_o heaven_n see_v the_o scripture_n say_v they_o have_v none_o the_o last_o time_n i_o answer_v this_o question_n by_o name_v

for_o heaven_n upon_o be_v this_o their_o frequency_n in_o the_o performance_n of_o religious_a duty_n and_o thus_o they_o reason_n with_o themselves_o shall_v i_o use_v duty_n all_o the_o day_n of_o my_o life_n as_o my_o way_n to_o heaven_n and_o shall_v i_o not_o hope_v for_o heaven_n at_o my_o journey_n end_n though_o a_o wicked_a man_n do_v notional_o hope_v for_o heaven_n through_o christ_n yet_o he_o lay_v the_o chief_a foundation_n of_o his_o hope_n in_o his_o own_o good_a work_n as_o christ_n say_v in_o the_o last_o day_n they_o shall_v come_v to_o he_o &_o cry_n lord_n lord_n open_a to_o we_o for_o we_o have_v prophesy_v in_o thy_o name_n and_o eat_v and_o drink_v in_o thy_o presence_n we_o have_v hear_v thy_o word_n and_o do_v many_o miracle_n and_o cast_v out_o devil_n in_o thy_o name_n and_o the_o like_a they_o shall_v boast_v of_o their_o hear_n and_o pray_v and_o good_a work_n and_o make_v that_o a_o plea_n for_o heaven_n when_o christ_n shall_v say_v unto_o they_o depart_v from_o i_o i_o know_v you_o not_o now_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o the_o rottenness_n and_o in_o sufficiency_n of_o this_o prop_n to_o build_v hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o but_o i_o will_v not_o have_v you_o mistake_v i_o as_o if_o i_o go_v about_o to_o beat_v down_o good_a work_n and_o make_v duty_n useless_a for_o i_o will_v have_v you_o so_o to_o perform_v duty_n as_o if_o you_o be_v to_o be_v save_v by_o duty_n but_o when_o you_o have_v do_v all_o that_o you_o can_v do_v to_o lay_v they_o down_o at_o the_o foot_n of_o christ_n and_o whole_o depend_v upon_o he_o as_o if_o we_o have_v do_v no_o duty_n at_o all_o but_o if_o you_o make_v the_o bare_a performance_n of_o duty_n to_o be_v a_o prop_n for_o your_o hope_n of_o heaven_n it_o will_v be_v a_o very_a rot_a and_o deceitful_a prop_n as_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o in_o these_o four_o particular_n for_o 1._o all_o performance_n of_o duty_n not_o tender_v to_o god_n the_o father_n by_o jesus_n christ_n will_v not_o be_v accept_v by_o he_o that_o be_v it_o possible_a you_o shall_v kneel_v so_o long_o in_o prayer_n to_o god_n as_o that_o you_o shall_v wear_v out_o your_o knee_n be_v it_o possible_a that_o you_o shall_v cry_v out_o your_o eye_n with_o weep_v and_o by_o mourning_n and_o lament_v for_o your_o sin_n you_o shall_v dry_v up_o all_o the_o moisture_n of_o your_o body_n be_v it_o possible_a you_o shall_v spend_v all_o the_o day_n of_o your_o life_n in_o hear_v read_v pray_v and_o the_o performance_n of_o holy_a duty_n yet_o if_o you_o do_v not_o offer_v they_o up_o to_o god_n in_o the_o name_n and_o mediation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n they_o be_v all_o but_o like_a cypher_n that_o amount_v to_o no_o sum_n at_o all_o unless_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v add_v to_o they_o it_o be_v christ_n righteousness_n that_o make_v our_o service_n acceptable_a to_o god_n christ_n add_v his_o incense_n to_o the_o prayer_n of_o all_o his_o saint_n now_o belove_v though_o you_o make_v never_o so_o many_o prayer_n yet_o if_o you_o have_v no_o share_n in_o christ_n nor_o in_o his_o suffering_n and_o prayer_n and_o intercession_n to_o god_n for_o thou_o all_o thy_o prayer_n and_o holy_a duty_n be_v worth_a nothing_o they_o will_v never_o bring_v thou_o to_o heaven_n our_o person_n must_v be_v in_o christ_n before_o our_o service_n can_v be_v accept_v of_o god_n and_o therefore_o the_o bare_a performance_n of_o duty_n can_v be_v no_o prop_n to_o thou_o for_o to_o build_v hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o 2._o these_o thing_n can_v be_v no_o prop_n of_o thy_o hope_n for_o heaven_n because_o hypocrite_n who_o person_n and_o performance_n god_n do_v hate_n they_o be_v frequent_a in_o duty_n as_o well_o as_o you_o the_o pharisee_n they_o do_v fast_o twice_o a_o week_n and_o give_v alm_n and_o perform_v holy_a duty_n and_o so_o those_o speak_v of_o in_o 3._o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n they_o do_v delight_n to_o draw_v near_o to_o god_n and_o to_o know_v his_o way_n as_o a_o nation_n that_o do_v righteousness_n and_o for_o sook_v not_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n wherefore_o have_v we_o fast_v say_v they_o and_o thou_o see_v not_o god_n do_v not_o accept_v of_o any_o thing_n they_o do_v and_o so_o those_o in_o zac._n they_o keep_v four_o fast_a day_n in_o a_o year_n for_o 19_o seven_o year_n together_o and_o yet_o they_o say_v he_o do_v not_o regard_v they_o and_o so_o likewise_o god_n do_v not_o regard_v the_o prayer_n of_o the_o wicked_a as_o in_o psal_n 105._o 9_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v 9_o a_o abomination_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o so_o be_v their_o hear_n too_o for_o they_o come_v to_o hear_v when_o their_o heart_n be_v after_o their_o covetousness_n 3._o know_v thus_o much_o that_o those_o very_a duty_n which_o god_n do_v accept_v at_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o child_n those_o very_a duty_n will_v he_o reject_v at_o the_o hand_n of_o wicked_a man_n and_o therefore_o the_o bare_a performance_n of_o duty_n can_v be_v no_o prop_n to_o build_v hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o for_o though_o thou_o spend_v long_a time_n in_o prayer_n &_o more_o time_n in_o hear_v read_v fast_a etc._n etc._n then_o a_o godly_a man_n do_v yet_o the_o lord_n will_v accept_v of_o his_o duty_n and_o not_o of_o thou_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o three_o instance_n for_o this_o the_o first_o be_v between_o cain_n and_o abel_n abel_n he_o offer_v the_o firstling_n of_o his_o sheep_n and_o cattle_n and_o of_o his_o flock_n and_o cain_n he_o offer_v 4._o the_o firstfruit_n of_o his_o ground_n now_o by_o faith_n abel_n offer_v a_o more_o excellent_a offering_n then_o cain_n 11._o though_o cain_n offer_v be_v of_o more_o value_n than_o abel_n be_v yet_o abel_n be_v accept_v when_o the_o other_o be_v not_o abel_n sacrifice_n be_v accept_v not_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o quantity_n and_o worth_a and_o value_n of_o it_o but_o because_o abel_n be_v a_o believer_n and_o a_o justify_v man_n in_o the_o fight_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o he_o have_v respect_n first_o to_o his_o person_n and_o then_o to_o his_o sacrifice_n

this_o the_o child_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_a and_o the_o child_n of_o the_o devil_n whosoever_o do_v not_o righteousness_n be_v not_o of_o god_n he_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o god_n he_o that_o do_v

have_v do_v in_o profane_v of_o it_o you_o that_o never_o take_v so_o much_o delight_n in_o the_o perform_n of_o duty_n to_o god_n as_o you_o have_v do_v in_o sin_v against_o god_n lay_v off_o hand_n

be_v not_o of_o god_n now_o then_o examine_v yourselves_o by_o this_o argument_n whether_o you_o be_v of_o god_n or_o no_o if_o you_o do_v profane_a the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o make_v no_o
