you_o live_v in_o that_o your_o conscience_n condemn_v you_o for_o a_o heathen_a will_v not_o do_v it_o a_o heathen_a will_v not_o wilful_o live_v in_o a_o sin_n that_o his_o conscience_n tell_v he_o be_v a_o sin_n many_o of_o the_o heathen_n come_v to_o that_o and_o what_o way_n have_v you_o make_v in_o profession_n perhaps_o you_o have_v seem_v to_o be_v in_o the_o school_n of_o christ_n many_o

they_o be_v secret_a and_o none_o know_v they_o but_o yourself_o therefore_o you_o have_v continue_v in_o they_o and_o venture_v upon_o they_o hope_v of_o god_n pardon_n be_v perhaps_o but_o one_o and_o no_o great_a one_o i_o say_v in_o this_o you_o be_v beneath_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n and_o therefore_o you_o be_v far_o from_o have_v your_o conversation_n such_o as_o become_v the_o

yea_o if_o it_o be_v among_o themselves_o and_o they_o will_v hardly_o company_n with_o you_o there_o be_v many_o that_o make_v profession_n of_o religion_n that_o i_o say_v if_o they_o live_v among_o heathen_n heathen_n will_v not_o keep_v company_n with_o a_o great_a part_n of_o this_o kingdom_n yea_o and_o of_o most_o congregation_n and_o therefore_o they_o shall_v not_o think_v much_o though_o they_o may_v not_o be_v admit_v into_o such_o a_o near_a communion_n as_o the_o lord_n supper_n q._n you_o will_v say_v then_o but_o what_o be_v that_o conversation_n become_v the_o gospel_n that_o be_v beyond_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n first_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n teach_v to_o worship_v a_o god_n that_o many_o of_o you_o do_v you_o worship_v god_n but_o this_o be_v that_o that_o

in_o that_o particular_a not_o only_o i_o be_o convince_v that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n that_o he_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o my_o creator_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v

to_o worship_n god_n as_o a_o father_n reconcile_v to_o i_o in_o christ_n and_o as_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o so_o do_v i_o come_v and_o present_v all_o my_o service_n unto_o god_n this_o few_o of_o our_o civil_a man_n do_v yet_o your_o civil_a man_n will_v make_v a_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n too_o and_o your_o civil_a man_n they_o worship_v god_n but_o it_o be_v in_o a_o mere_a natural_a way_n the_o god_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n that_o make_v they_o be_v to_o be_v worship_v they_o can_v say_v their_o old_a catechism_n q._n who_o make_v you_o a._n god_n q._n wherefore_o do_v he_o make_v you_o a._n he_o make_v i_o to_o serve_v he_o etc._n etc._n i_o but_o do_v thou_o when_o thou_o come_v to_o serve_v and_o worship_v the_o lord_n look_v upon_o god_n as_o a_o father_n reconcile_v in_o christ_n and_o as_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o so_o do_v thou_o tender_v up_o all_o thy_o service_n to_o god_n thou_o be_v not_o

know_v that_o all_o other_o worship_n that_o thou_o tender_v up_o to_o god_n mere_o as_o god_n be_v creator_n god_n that_o make_v thou_o and_o therefore_o thou_o must_v serve_v he_o i_o say_v all_o that_o worship_n if_o thou_o go_v no_o further_a god_n reject_v it_o indeed_o we_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n as_o a_o creator_n god_n will_v have_v that_o i_o but_o if_o he_o have_v not_o that_o and_o the_o other_o too_o and_o if_o he_o have_v not_o both_o he_o will_v not_o accept_v of_o one_o for_o the_o first_o be_v include_v in_o the_o second_o but_o the_o second_o be_v not_o include_v in_o the_o first_o a_o man_n that_o worship_v god_n as_o a_o father_n and_o as_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o do_v worship_n god_n as_o a_o cretor_n too_o but_o a_o man_n may_v

the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n have_v be_v please_v to_o shine_v in_o upon_o thy_o soul_n as_o a_o father_n and_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o thou_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n thus_o or_o at_o least_o this_o be_v the_o endeavour_n of_o thy_o soul_n that_o thou_o may_v worship_v god_n in_o this_o way_n thou_o be_v not_o satisfy_v in_o worship_v god_n after_o the_o other_o way_n because_o he_o make_v thou_o and_o thy_o heart_n work_v after_o this_o indeed_o i_o have_v not_o get_v this_o full_a assurance_n that_o he_o be_v my_o father_n but_o this_o be_v that_o my_o heart_n be_v unsatisfied_a until_o i_o have_v get_v it_o and_o i_o can_v be_v quiet_a in_o any_o other_o kind_n of_o worship_v god_n till_o i_o find_v some_o ability_n to_o tender_v up_o all_o to_o he_o as_o a_o father_n and_o as_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n i_o say_v till_o thou_o come_v to_o this_o thou_o do_v not_o in_o that_o particular_a worship_n god_n as_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o so_o in_o the_o point_n of_o justice_n thou_o do_v give_v every_o one_o his_o own_o i_o but_o this_o be_v beneath_o that_o that_o be_v

for_o they_o which_o despiteful_o use_v you_o and_o persecut_v you_o this_o be_v high_a than_o mere_o to_o be_v just_a and_o for_o one_o man_n not_o to_o wrong_v another_o you_o shall_v have_v many_o

this_o do_v not_o rise_v to_o that_o height_n to_o be_v the_o conversation_n as_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n you_o must_v come_v to_o this_o height_n to_o love_v your_o enemy_n and_o to_o

this_o be_v somewhat_o like_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n this_o be_v somewhat_o more_o than_o to_o do_v no_o wrong_n to_o other_o and_o to_o do_v as_o we_o will_v be_v do_v to_o we_o must_v go_v

and_o empty_v himself_o for_o good_a to_o we_o what_o be_v beseem_v this_o gospel_n but_o that_o all_o that_o be_v professor_n of_o it_o shall_v deny_v themselves_o it_o be_v very_o unbeseeming_a the_o glorious_a gospel_n for_o a_o christian_n to_o be_v selvish_a to_o have_v his_o self-end_n and_o self-way_n and_o interest_n in_o every_o thing_n as_o general_o almost_o all_o man_n in_o the_o

he_o have_v in_o the_o world_n must_v be_v melt_v into_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n jesus_n christ_n for_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n be_v content_a infinite_o to_o deny_v himself_o more_o than_o we_o can_v for_o what_o have_v we_o to_o deny_v ourselves_o of_o do_v you_o or_o i_o live_v as_o become_v the_o gospel_n when_o i_o say_v all_o that_o we_o apprehend_v to_o have_v any_o excellency_n

all_o these_o reason_n come_v to_o nothing_o till_o the_o soul_n come_v to_o behold_v the_o clear_a light_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o there_o behold_v the_o son_n of_o god_n by_o faith_n how_o he_o
