deliver_v he_o up_o unto_o death_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o sin_n he_o will_v sure_o show_v no_o mercy_n to_o we_o if_o we_o be_v not_o wrought_v upon_o to_o forsake_v all_o our_o evil_a way_n and_o turn_v unto_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n and_o suffer_v he_o to_o reign_v over_o we_o for_o that_o be_v the_o very_a thing_n christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n for_o viz._n to_o restore_v rebellious_a man_n to_o the_o favour_n and_o love_n of_o god_n in_o bring_v they_o again_o to_o their_o duty_n and_o allegiance_n he_o tell_v we_o himself_o mat._n 9.13_o he_o come_v to_o call_v

redeem_v we_o from_o all_o iniquity_n and_o indeed_o he_o full_o demonstrate_v by_o his_o death_n and_o suffering_n the_o absolute_a necessity_n of_o return_v to_o our_o duty_n assure_v we_o thereby_o that_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n that_o god_n will_v by_o no_o mean_n spare_v those_o that_o persist_v in_o their_o rebellion_n and_o reject_v the_o offer_n of_o grace_n make_v to_o they_o in_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o escape_v if_o we_o neglect_v so_o great_a a_o salvation_n as_o he_o forewarn_v we_o in_o the_o parable_n the_o lord_n will_v sure_o order_v at_o the_o great_a day_n of_o account_n all_o his_o enemy_n which_o will_v not_o that_o he_o shall_v reign_v over_o they_o to_o be_v bring_v and_o slay_v before_o he_o luke_n 19.27_o but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o that_o be_v do_v by_o our_o bless_a saviour_n to_o establish_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n among_o men._n he_o not_o only_o do_v reveal_v the_o pure_a law_n of_o heaven_n and_o manifest_v to_o the_o world_n the_o wrath_n and_o judgement_n of_o god_n against_o they_o that_o will_v not_o be_v rule_v by_o they_o he_o have_v also_o bring_v life_n and_o immortality_n to_o

in_o our_o heart_n i_o have_v thus_o long_o insist_v upon_o this_o point_n on_o purpose_n to_o make_v christianity_n or_o the_o messiah_n dispensation_n the_o better_o know_v for_o these_o be_v

in_o their_o sin_n as_o i_o hope_v do_v appear_v from_o what_o have_v be_v say_v particular_o concern_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n and_o as_o must_v needs_o indeed_o be_v evident_a to_o any_o one_o who_o will_v but_o consider_v serious_o the_o precept_n the_o promise_n and_o the_o threaten_n of_o the_o gospel_n we_o be_v tell_v act_v 3.26_o that_o the_o end_n for_o which_o god_n send_v his_o son_n be_v to_o bless_v we_o in_o turn_v away_o every_o one_o of_o we_o from_o our_o iniquity_n it_o must_v needs_o therefore_o be_v a_o great_a blessing_n to_o be_v free_v from_o our_o sin_n and_o bring_v again_o under_o the_o dominion_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n what_o pretence_n then_o or_o what_o excuse_n can_v we_o now_o frame_v if_o we_o still_o despise_v and_o reject_v god_n law_n and_o will_v not_o submit_v to_o his_o divine_a government_n how_o can_v we_o refuse_v to_o yield_v ourselves_o unto_o god_n and_o become_v god_n obedient_a people_n see_v he_o require_v nothing_o of_o we_o but_o what_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o best_a reason_n in_o the_o world_n and_o the_o light_n of_o our_o own_o conscience_n and_o what_o tend_v to_o our_o true_a

will_v secure_v our_o everlasting_a happiness_n in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v not_o meat_n and_o drink_n it_o do_v not_o consist_v in_o indifferent_a thing_n but_o righteousness_n and_o peace_n and_o joy_n in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o we_o see_v before_o rom._n 14.17_o when_o we_o be_v admit_v to_o the_o freedom_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n we_o take_v a_o solemn_a oath_n of_o allegiance_n which_o comprehend_v these_o three_o thing_n i._o that_o we_o renounce_v the_o devil_n and_o all_o his_o work_n the_o pomp_n and_o vanity_n of_o this_o wicked_a world_n and_o all_o the_o sinful_a lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n ii_o that_o we_o receive_v and_o embrace_v all_o the_o article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n and_o iii_o that_o we_o will_v keep_v god_n holy_a will_n and_o commandment_n and_o walk_v in_o the_o same_o all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n and_o as_o long_o as_o we_o be_v true_a to_o this_o oath_n we_o remain_v good_a and_o

discern_v what_o reason_n there_o be_v to_o repent_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v at_o hand_n and_o what_o reason_n then_o there_o be_v for_o repentance_n now_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v come_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v such_o as_o we_o have_v now_o see_v it_o be_v evident_a that_o repentance_n be_v a_o necessary_a step_n or_o preparative_n to_o it_o how_o will_v man_n submit_v and_o conform_v themselves_o to_o the_o divine_a law_n if_o they_o do_v not_o forsake_v their_o sin_n and_o learn_v to_o practise_v the_o contrary_a virtue_n they_o can_v serve_v god_n and_o mammon_n luk._n 16.13_o for_o what_o fellowship_n have_v righteousness_n with_o unrighteousness_n what_o communion_n have_v light_a with_o darkness_n and_o what_o concord_n have_v christ_n with_o belial_n as_o say_v the_o apostle_n 2_o cor._n 6.14_o 15._o it_o be_v certain_a man_n will_v never_o be_v thorough_o convert_v if_o they_o do_v not_o first_o repent_v and_o begin_v by_o reformation_n the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o begin_n of_o wisdom_n prov._n 9.10_o so_o repentance_n be_v the_o begin_n of_o christianity_n those_o that_o forsake_v their_o sin_n and_o repent_v hearty_o of_o they_o be_v fit_a man_n to_o make_v christian_n of_o but_o no_o wonder_n that_o the_o ruler_n the_o pharisee_n and_o sadducee_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o hypocrite_n and_o reprobate_n of_o that_o age_n believe_v not_o in_o jesus_n christ_n the_o secret_a of_o the_o lord_n be_v only_o with_o they_o that_o fear_v he_o the_o secret_a of_o the_o lord_n be_v with_o the_o righteous_a and_o to_o such_o he_o will_v show_v his_o covenant_n as_o we_o read_v psal_n 25.14_o prov_fw-mi 3.32_o in_o a_o word_n the_o good_a seed_n take_v no_o effect_n but_o when_o it_o fall_v in_o a_o good_a

13.3_o except_o you_o repent_v you_o shall_v all_o perish_v and_o if_o we_o be_v call_v with_o a_o holy_a and_o heavenly_a call_n as_o it_o be_v 2_o tim._n 1.9_o heb._n 3.1_o 1_o thess_n 4.7_o and_o in_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v sure_o to_o this_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v establish_v our_o heart_n unblameable_a in_o holiness_n 1_o thess_n 3.13_o and_o perfect_a
