he_o can_v abide_v nor_o permit_v the_o sinner_n to_o praise_v he_o or_o to_o name_v his_o testament_n with_o his_o mouth_n as_o the_o holy_a ghost_n testify_v and_o therefore_o no_o marvel_n if_o he_o show_v such_o rigour_n to_o he_o at_o the_o last_o day_n who_o he_o so_o great_o hate_v and_o abhor_v in_o this_o life_n 2_o there_o may_v be_v many_o reason_n allege_v of_o this_o as_o the_o breach_n of_o god_n commandment_n the_o ingratitude_n of_o a_o sinner_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o benefit_n and_o the_o like_a which_o may_v justify_v sufficient_o his_o indignation_n towards_o he_o sinner_n but_o there_o be_v one_o reason_n above_o the_o rest_n which_o open_v the_o whole_a fountain_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o that_o be_v the_o intolerable_a injury_n do_v unto_o god_n in_o every_o sin_n that_o witting_o we_o do_v commit_v which_o in_o deed_n be_v such_o a_o opprobrious_a injury_n and_o so_o dishonourable_a as_o no_o mean_a potentate_n can_v bear_v the_o same_o at_o

by_o a_o wicked_a man_n 3_o and_o for_o the_o understanding_n of_o this_o injury_n we_o must_v note_v that_o every_o time_n we_o commit_v such_o a_o sin_n there_o do_v pass_v through_o our_o hart_n though_o we_o mark_v it_o not_o a_o certain_a practik_a discourse_n of_o our_o understanding_n as_o there_o do_v also_o in_o every_o other_o election_n whereby_o we_o lie_v before_o we_o on_o the_o one_o side_n the_o profit_n of_o that_o sin_n which_o we_o be_v to_o commit_v that_o be_v the_o pleasure_n that_o draw_v we_o to_o it_o and_o on_o the_o other_o part_n the_o offence_n of_o god_n that_o be_v the_o lose_v of_o his_o friendship_n by_o that_o sin_n if_o we_o do_v it_o and_o so_o have_v as_o it_o be_v the_o balance_n there_o before_o we_o and_o put_v god_n in_o one_o end_n and_o in_o the_o other_o the_o aforesaid_a pleasure_n sin_n we_o stand_v in_o the_o midst_n deliberate_v and_o examine_v the_o weight_n of_o both_o part_n and_o final_o we_o do_v make_v choice_n of_o the_o pleasure_n and_o do_v reject_v god_n that_o be_v we_o do_v choose_v rather_o to_o lose_v the_o friendship_n of_o god_n with_o his_o grace_n and_o whatsoever_o he_o be_v worth_a beside_o than_o to_o lose_v that_o pleasure_n and_o delectation_n of_o sin_n now_o what_o thing_n can_v be_v more_o horrible_a than_o this_o what_o can_v be_v more_o spiteful_a to_o god_n than_o to_o prefer_v a_o most_o vile_a pleasure_n before_o his_o majesty_n be_v not_o this_o worse_a than_o intolerable_a injury_n of_o the_o jew_n 15._o who_o choose_v barrabas_n the_o murderer_n &_o reject_v christ_n their_o saviour_n sure_o how_o heinous_a soever_o that_o sin_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v yet_o in_o two_o point_n this_o do_v seem_v to_o exceed_v it_o the_o one_o in_o that_o the_o jew_n know_v not_o who_o they_o refuse_v in_o their_o choice_n as_o we_o do_v the_o other_o in_o that_o they_o refuse_v christ_n but_o once_o and_o we_o do_v it_o often_o yea_o daily_a &_o hourly_o when_o with_o advisement_n we_o give_v consent_n in_o our_o heart_n unto_o sin_n 4_o and_o be_v it_o marvel_v then_o that_o god_n deal_v so_o severe_o and_o sharp_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v with_o wicked_a man_n who_o do_v use_v he_o so_o opprobrious_o &_o contemptuous_o in_o this_o life_n sure_o the_o malice_n of_o a_o sinner_n be_v great_a towards_o god_n &_o he_o do_v not_o only_o dishonour_v he_o by_o contempt_n of_o his_o commandment_n god_n &_o by_o prefer_v most_o vile_a creature_n before_o he_o but_o also_o bear_v a_o secret_a hatred_n &_o grudge_n against_o his_o majesty_n &_o will_v if_o it_o lay_v in_o his_o power_n pull_v he_o out_o of_o his_o seat_n or_o at_o the_o leastwise_o wish_v there_o be_v no_o god_n at_o all_o to_o punish_v sin_n after_o this_o life_n let_v every_o sinner_n examine_v the_o bottom_n of_o his_o conscience_n in_o this_o point_n whether_o he_o can_v not_o be_v content_a there_o be_v no_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n no_o reckon_n after_o this_o life_n no_o judge_n no_o punishment_n no_o hell_n &_o consequent_o no_o god_n to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v the_o more_o secure_o enjoy_v his_o pleasure_n 5_o and_o because_o god_n which_o search_v the_o hart_n and_o reins_n see_v well_o this_o traitorous_a affection_n of_o sinner_n towards_o he_o lurk_v within_o their_o bowel_n 3._o how_o smooth_a soever_o their_o word_n be_v therefore_o he_o denounce_v they_o for_o his_o enemy_n in_o the_o scripture_n and_o profess_v open_a war_n and_o hostility_n against_o they_o and_o then_o suppose_v you_o what_o a_o case_n these_o miserable_a man_n be_v in_o be_v but_o silly_a worm_n of_o the_o earth_n when_o they_o have_v such_o a_o enemy_n to_o fight_v against_o they_o as_o do_v make_v the_o very_a heaven_n to_o tremble_v at_o his_o look_n and_o yet_o that_o it_o be_v so_o hear_v what_o he_o say_v what_o he_o threaten_v what_o he_o thunder_v against_o they_o after_o he_o have_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o esay_n the_o prophet_n repeat_v many_o sin_n abominable_a in_o his_o sight_n as_o the_o take_n of_o bribe_n they_o oppress_v of_o poor_a people_n and_o the_o like_a he_o defi_v the_o doer_n thereof_o as_o his_o open_a enemy_n say_v thus_o say_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n 26.11_o the_o strong_a lord_n of_o host_n of_o israel_n behold_v i_o will_v be_v revenge_v upon_o my_o enemy_n and_o will_v comfort_v myself_o in_o their_o

this_o severe_a meaning_n and_o infinite_a displeasure_n in_o god_n against_o sinner_n call_v they_o his_o enemy_n vessel_n of_o his_o wrath_n and_o ordain_v to_o eternal_a ruin_n and_o destruction_n and_o complain_v that_o the_o world_n will_v not_o believe_v this_o point_n a_o unwise_a man_n say_v he_o will_v not_o learn_v this_o 90._o neither_o will_v the_o fool_n understand_v it_o what_o be_v this_o how_o sinner_n after_o they_o be_v spring_v up_o and_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n after_o they_o have_v appear_v to_o the_o world_n do_v perish_v everlasting_o and_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o he_o answer_v immediate_o because_o thy_o enemy_n o_o lord_n behold_v o_o lord_n thy_o enemy_n shall_v perish_v and_o all_o those_o that_o work_n iniquity_n shall_v be_v consume_v by_o this_o we_o see_v that_o all_o sinner_n be_v enemy_n to_o god_n and_o god_n to_o they_o and_o we_o see_v also_o upon_o what_o ground_n and_o reason_n but_o yet_o for_o the_o further_o justifieng_v of_o god_n severity_n let_v we_o consider_v in_o what_o measure_n his_o hatred_n be_v towards_o sin_n how_o great_a how_o far_o it_o proceed_v within_o what_o bound_n it_o be_v comprehend_v or_o if_o it_o have_v any_o limit_n or_o bound_n at_o all_o as_o indeed_o it_o have_v not_o but_o be_v infinite_a sinner_n that_o be_v without_o measure_n or_o limitation_n and_o to_o utter_v the_o matter_n as_o in_o truth_n it_o stand_v if_o all_o the_o tongue_n in_o the_o world_n be_v make_v one_o tongue_n &_o all_o the_o understanding_n of_o all_o creature_n i_o mean_v of_o angel_n and_o man_n be_v make_v one_o understanding_n yet_o can_v neither_o this_o tongue_n express_v nor_o this_o understanding_n conceive_v the_o great_a hatred_n of_o god_n hart_n towards_o every_o sin_n which_o we_o do_v witting_o commit_v and_o the_o reason_n hereof_o stand_v in_o two_o point_n first_o for_o that_o god_n by_o how_o much_o more_o he_o be_v better_a than_o we_o be_v by_o so_o much_o more_o he_o love_v goodness_n and_o hate_v sin_n than_o we_o do_v and_o because_o he_o be_v infinite_o good_a therefore_o his_o love_n to_o goodness_n be_v infinite_a as_o also_o his_o hatred_n to_o evil_n and_o consequent_o his_o reward_n to_o they_o both_o be_v infinite_a the_o one_o in_o hell_n the_o other_o in_o heaven_n punishment_n 6_o secondlie_o we_o see_v by_o experience_n that_o how_o much_o more_o great_a and_o worthy_a the_o person_n be_v against_o who_o a_o offence_n be_v commit_v so_o much_o great_a the_o offence_n be_v as_o the_o selfsame_o blow_n geeven_a to_o a_o servant_n and_o to_o a_o prince_n differ_v great_o in_o offence_n and_o deserve_v different_a hatred_n and_o punishment_n and_o for_o that_o every_o sin_n which_o we_o advise_o commit_v be_v do_v direct_o against_o the_o person_n of_o god_n himself_o as_o have_v be_v declare_v before_o who_o dignity_n be_v infinite_a therefore_o the_o offence_n or_o guilt_n of_o every_o such_o sin_n be_v infinite_a and_o consequent_o deserve_v infinite_a hatred_n and_o infinite_a punishment_n
