that_o good_a may_v come_v thereof_o citt._n well_o sir_n let_v we_o leave_v off_o this_o discourse_n concern_v the_o book_n and_o let_v we_o proceed_v a_o little_a further_o in_o our_o discourse_n concern_v the_o person_n who_o be_v the_o subject_a matter_n of_o such_o book_n and_o i_o pray_v you_o tell_v i_o how_o you_o conceive_v a_o christian_a man_n be_v to_o stand_v affect_v towards_o such_o person_n gent._n without_o question_n he_o ought_v to_o love_v their_o person_n as_o they_o be_v man_n you_o know_v who_o word_n they_o be_v mat._n 5.44_o but_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o love_v your_o enemy_n citt._n indeed_o i_o grant_v if_o they_o be_v my_o private_a enemy_n i_o ought_v to_o love_v they_o yea_o and_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o they_o be_v so_o i_o ought_v to_o do_v it_o but_o these_o man_n be_v public_a enemy_n yea_o god_n enemy_n such_o as_o oppose_v and_o hate_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n and_o persecute_v it_o in_o the_o professor_n thereof_o yea_o they_o be_v such_o as_o be_v enemy_n to_o any_o good_a course_n and_o godly_a proceed_n gent._n though_o they_o be_v god_n enemy_n and_o public_a enemy_n yet_o for_o aught_o you_o know_v while_o they_o be_v alive_a they_o may_v be_v curable_a and_o therefore_o though_o you_o may_v hate_v their_o sin_n and_o pray_v against_o their_o device_n yet_o must_v you_o love_v their_o person_n citt._n but_o do_v not_o paul_n and_o david_n hate_v the_o person_n of_o such_o and_o pray_v against_o they_o and_o may_v not_o we_o imitate_v they_o therein_o gent._n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o paul_n pray_v against_o alexander_n the_o coppersmith_n 139.32_o 2_o tim._n 4._o psal_n 139.32_o that_o god_n will_v reward_v he_o according_a to_o his_o work_n so_o david_n say_v do_v not_o i_o hate_v they_o o_o lord_n that_o hate_v thou_o etc._n etc._n and_o so_o in_o many_o other_o psalm_n he_o pray_v for_o the_o final_a and_o utter_a destruction_n of_o his_o enemy_n which_o indeed_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o utter_a hatred_n yet_o this_o be_v because_o they_o be_v not_o only_a god_n enemy_n but_o desperate_a and_o irrecoverable_a one_o which_o they_o see_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v extraordinary_o and_o infallible_o inform_v thereof_o and_o therefore_o their_o prayer_n be_v but_o prophecy_n of_o the_o final_a destruction_n of_o these_o man_n as_o psal_n 63.9_o and_o 54._o and_o 5._o but_o for_o we_o because_o we_o have_v not_o the_o like_a measure_n or_o gift_n of_o spirit_n we_o have_v no_o such_o warrant_n either_o to_o hate_v or_o pray_v direct_o against_o any_o man_n person_n citt._n well_o sir_n i_o tell_v you_o true_o i_o do_v not_o consider_v these_o thing_n before_o now_o and_o i_o begin_v to_o fear_v my_o heart_n have_v not_o be_v so_o right_o affect_v towards_o these_o man_n who_o i_o have_v name_v as_o it_o ought_v therefore_o i_o pray_v you_o proceed_v further_o in_o this_o matter_n gent._n i_o will_v as_o the_o lord_n shall_v enable_v i_o and_o first_o as_o touch_v they_o that_o be_v yet_o live_v i_o conceive_v it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o christian_a and_o that_o which_o do_v most_o express_a a_o christian-like_a spirit_n to_o express_v our_o love_n to_o they_o in_o be_v sorry_a yea_o and_o in_o mourning_n for_o they_o yea_o and_o the_o more_o we_o hear_v their_o fault_n discover_v the_o more_o we_o be_v to_o sorrow_n for_o they_o &_o this_o i_o be_o confident_a have_v warrant_n from_o scripture_n do_v you_o not_o remember_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v to_o the_o corinthian_n touch_v the_o incestuous_a person_n and_o you_o be_v puff_v up_o say_v he_o 5.2_o 1_o cor_fw-la 5.2_o and_o have_v not_o rather_o sorrow_v it_o be_v a_o place_n that_o i_o have_v often_o think_v upon_o and_o to_o tell_v you_o true_o i_o have_v find_v such_o a_o disposition_n in_o my_o own_o heart_n as_o be_v in_o these_o corinthian_n and_o that_o be_v when_o i_o have_v heard-of_a other_o that_o have_v commit_v some_o gross_a offence_n i_o have_v as_o it_o be_v find_v my_o heart_n glad_a within_o i_o or_o rather_o puff_v up_o with_o pride_n because_o i_o have_v not_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o like_a transgression_n when_o as_o it_o be_v clear_a by_o the_o text_n that_o i_o shall_v rather_o have_v sorrow_v for_o they_o for_o want_v of_o which_o disposition_n the_o apostle_n blame_v the_o corinthian_n it_o be_v well_o say_v therefore_o of_o one_o in_o the_o book_n call_v the_o live_v of_o the_o father_n when_o it_o be_v tell_v he_o that_o one_o of_o his_o brethren_n be_v fall_v into_o whoredom_n he_o fall_v yesterday_o say_v he_o and_o i_o may_v fall_v to_o day_n to_o this_o purpose_n luther_n have_v a_o excellent_a say_n we_o must_v not_o say_v he_o measure_v our_o own_o holiness_n by_o other_o man_n sin_n therefore_o let_v he_o that_o stand_v take_v heed_n lest_o he_o fall_v 10.12_o 1_o cor._n 10.12_o and_o have_v you_o not_o consider_v when_o it_o be_v reveal_v to_o elisha_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n what_o gross_a crime_n hazael_n shall_v commit_v hereafter_o the_o text_n say_v that_o he_o look_v upon_o he_o steadfast_o and_o weep_v now_o if_o that_o the_o prophet_n of_o god_n weep_v when_o he_o consider_v the_o evil_n which_o that_o wicked_a man_n shall_v commit_v hereafter_o ought_v not_o we_o think_v you_o to_o do_v the_o like_a when_o we_o consider_v what_o wickedness_n man_n have_v commit_v heretofore_o and_o indeed_o sir_n if_o we_o do_v well_o we_o shall_v make_v this_o good_a use_n thereof_o unto_o ourselves_o that_o be_v when_o we_o hear_v what_o transgression_n other_o have_v commit_v we_o shall_v therein_o as_o in_o a_o glass_n behold_v our_o own_o nature_n we_o be_v the_o very_a same_o by_o nature_n as_o they_o be_v and_o if_o we_o have_v the_o same_o temptation_n which_o they_o have_v and_o the_o lord_n shall_v leave_v we_o to_o ourselves_o as_o he_o leave_v they_o we_o shall_v certain_o commit_v the_o like_a transgression_n which_o they_o have_v do_v to_o this_o purpose_n i_o remember_v a_o story_n which_o i_o hear_v a_o godly_a divine_a relate_v in_o the_o pulpit_n concern_v a_o certain_a man_n who_o be_v distress_v in_o conscience_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o greatness_n of_o his_o sin_n one_o of_o his_o christian_a friend_n labour_v to_o comfort_v he_o will_v he_o to_o consider_v that_o his_o sin_n be_v not_o so_o great_a as_o manasses_n be_v who_o yet_o notwithstanding_o be_v forgive_v whereupon_o he_o reply_v if_o i_o have_v live_v in_o manasses_n time_n and_o have_v have_v the_o same_o temptation_n as_o manasses_n have_v i_o shall_v have_v commit_v as_o great_a sin_n as_o manasses_n do_v we_o cry_v out_o say_v another_o godly_a divine_a against_o cain_n for_o murder_v his_o brother_n and_o against_o judas_n for_o betray_v his_o master_n when_o as_o we_o ourselves_o have_v the_o same_o murderous_a and_o traitorous_a disposition_n in_o we_o by_o nature_n to_o this_o purpose_n austin_n speak_v well_o say_v there_o be_v no_o sin_n which_o any_o man_n have_v do_v but_o another_o man_n may_v do_v the_o same_o yea_o say_v luther_n god_n by_o such_o example_n do_v show_v unto_o we_o our_o own_o weakness_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o wax_v proud_a but_o stand_v in_o fear_n according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n 6.2_o gal._n 6.2_o consider_v thyself_o lest_o thou_o also_o be_v tempt_v citt._n true_o sir_n it_o will_v be_v very_o well_o if_o we_o can_v be_v thus_o affect_v towards_o they_o and_o that_o we_o can_v make_v such_o good_a use_n thereof_o as_o you_o have_v speak_v for_o than_o shall_v we_o pity_v they_o and_o pray_v for_o they_o as_o i_o now_o persuade_v myself_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n gent._n yea_o sure_o while_o they_o be_v alive_a it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o pray_v for_o they_o the_o faithful_a say_v calvin_n desire_v as_o much_o as_o lie_v in_o they_o that_o the_o wicked_a shall_v return_v to_o a_o perfect_a mind_n and_o so_o they_o seek_v their_o salvation_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o perish_v thus_o than_o we_o must_v pray_v to_o god_n to_o pardon_v they_o and_o to_o turn_v their_o heart_n and_o to_o move_v we_o hereunto_o 5.44_o mat._n 5.44_o let_v we_o first_o consider_v that_o our_o saviour_n command_v it_o second_o let_v we_o consider_v that_o they_o be_v our_o own_o flesh_n 58.7_o esay_n 58.7_o three_o consider_v they_o have_v some_o part_n at_o the_o least_o of_o god_n image_n in_o they_o but_o alas_o this_o duty_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n that_o be_v in_o we_o and_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o contrary_a to_o this_o duty_n they_o do_v hate_v they_o rejoice_v at_o their_o fall_n speak_v all_o ill_a both_o to_o they_o and_o of_o they_o and_o interpret_v all_o thing_n against_o they_o citt._n well_o sir_n you_o have_v full_o satisfy_v i_o how_o we_o shall_v be_v affect_v towards_o the_o live_n i_o pray_v declare_v likewise_o how_o we_o shall_v be_v affect_v towards_o the_o dead_a gent._n as_o we_o must_v pray_v for_o they_o while_o they_o be_v alive_a so_o must_v we_o pity_v they_o be_v cut_v off_o because_o they_o have_v bring_v misery_n upon_o themselves_o citt._n but_o may_v we_o not_o lawful_o rejoice_v when_o wicked_a man_n be_v take_v away_o be_v we_o not_o bid_v to_o rejoice_v at_o wicked_a man_n destruction_n psal_n 52._o and_o psal_n 58.10_o gent._n indeed_o thus_o much_o i_o do_v grant_v that_o though_o we_o know_v not_o man_n final_a estate_n yet_o if_o we_o see_v any_o notorious_a enemy_n of_o the_o church_n and_o gospel_n and_o good_a man_n take_v away_o we_o may_v give_v god_n thanks_n and_o in_o some_o sense_n rejoice_v as_o namely_o for_o that_o god_n have_v show_v himself_o careful_a of_o his_o church_n and_o have_v provide_v for_o his_o own_o glory_n the_o comfort_n of_o his_o people_n and_o passage_n of_o goodness_n and_o for_o the_o terror_n of_o other_o bad_a one_o leave_v behind_o but_o we_o must_v no_o way_n rejoice_v as_o it_o be_v the_o destruction_n of_o the_o person_n but_o i_o
