do_v those_o thing_n which_o god_n forbid_v we_o tread_v his_o commandment_n under_o our_o foot_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v very_o wicked_o do_v of_o we_o to_o accuse_v god_n of_o deal_v severe_o

he_o have_v fulfil_v the_o remediless_a sum_n total_a of_o his_o iniquity_n as_o our_o bless_a saviour_n say_v to_o the_o great_a man_n of_o the_o jew_n fill_v you_o up_o 33._o matt._n 23_o v._n 32_o

in_o order_n to_o their_o destruction_n so_o in_o the_o old_a law_n when_o it_o make_v mention_v that_o the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o amorites_n be_v fulfil_v it_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o angel_n

they_o have_v so_o very_o high_o offend_v god_n that_o they_o endure_v that_o hell_n in_o this_o world_n which_o be_v to_o be_v feel_v in_o the_o other_o ix_o but_o some_o one_o may_v say_v there_o

make_v of_o that_o which_o our_o saviour_n say_v that_o all_o they_o who_o despise_v his_o gospel_n be_v much_o worse_a than_o they_o for_o thus_o he_o say_v to_o the_o people_n of_o capernaum_n if_o the_o mighty_a work_n 13._o luk._n 10._o v._n 12_o 13._o have_v be_v do_v in_o sodom_n which_o have_v be_v do_v in_o thou_o it_o may_v have_v remain_v unto_o this_o day_n but_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v more_o tolerable_a in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n for_o sodom_n than_o for_o thou_o he_o say_v here_o that_o the_o sodomite_n be_v less_o culpable_a than_o those_o who_o neglect_v the_o gospel_n and_o therefore_o this_o be_v a_o most_o plain_a reason_n why_o we_o who_o do_v neglect_v it_o in_o many_o instance_n aught_o to_o dread_v something_o worse_o especial_o consider_v that_o we_o will_v not_o now_o be_v satisfy_v with_o the_o usual_a and_o familiar_a vice_n the_o customary_a way_n of_o sin_v be_v not_o sufficient_a for_o many_o now_o they_o be_v not_o

say_v of_o the_o ungodly_a 11._o psal_n 73._o v._n 9_o v._n 11._o they_o set_v their_o mouth_n against_o the_o heaven_n and_o their_o tongue_n walk_v through_o the_o earth_n and_o they_o say_v how_o do_v god_n know_v and_o be_v there_o knowledge_n in_o the_o most_o high_a and_o in_o another_o place_n 7._o psal_n 94._o v._n 7._o the_o lord_n shall_v not_o see_v neither_o shall_v the_o god_n of_o jacob_n regard_v it_o and_o to_o such_o as_o these_o we_o may_v very_o apt_o apply_v that_o of_o the_o royal_a prophet_n 1._o psal_n 53._o v._n 1._o the_o fool_n have_v say_v in_o his_o heart_n there_o be_v no_o god_n for_o they_o who_o affirm_v that_o god_n see_v nothing_o have_v as_o good_a at_o the_o same_o time_n take_v away_o his_o subsistence_n and_o when_o they_o say_v he_o have_v no_o sight_n they_o have_v as_o good_a say_v he_o have_v no_o be_v for_o although_o no_o very_a wicked_a action_n can_v be_v consonant_a to_o right_a reason_n because_o reason_n and_o sin_v be_v inconsistent_a yet_o in_o my_o opinion_n there_o be_v no_o wickedness_n so_o very_o wild_a and_o unreasonable_a as_o this_o for_o what_o can_v savour_v more_o of_o frenzy_n than_o that_o a_o man_n shall_v acknowledge_v god_n to_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o yet_o to_o deny_v that_o he_o govern_v they_o that_o he_o be_v the_o former_a and_o maker_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o yet_o that_o he_o neglect_v his_o own_o handiwork_n as_o though_o the_o chief_a end_n and_o design_n of_o make_v they_o be_v pure_o death_n ●_o how_o god_n be_v the_o giver_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o his_o love_n towards_o we_o who_o merit_v nothing_o but_o death_n to_o disregard_n they_o now_o on_o the_o contrary_a i_o assert_v that_o he_o have_v so_o great_a care_n of_o all_o his_o creature_n that_o i_o will_v prove_v that_o he_o exercise_v it_o even_o before_o the_o creation_n the_o very_a thing_n itself_o show_v it_o plain_o for_o he_o have_v never_o make_v any_o thing_n unless_o he_o have_v some_o thought_n of_o it_o beforehand_o for_o we_o do_v not_o see_v any_o part_n of_o mankind_n so_o very_o dull_a to_o undertake_v or_o go_v through_o with_o any_o thing_n that_o he_o may_v never_o mind_v it_o when_o he_o have_v do_v it_o for_o he_o who_o cultivate_v his_o field_n do_v it_o for_o that_o end_n that_o he_o may_v preserve_v it_o in_o that_o order_n he_o who_o plant_v a_o vineyard_n do_v it_o with_o design_n to_o keep_v up_o the_o plantation_n he_o who_o begin_v to_o raise_v a_o flock_n do_v it_o with_o design_n to_o take_v care_n of_o their_o increase_n so_o he_o who_o build_v a_o house_n or_o lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o one_o although_o at_o that_o time_n he_o have_v not_o a_o dwelling_n ready_a for_o he_o yet_o he_o undergo_n the_o charge_n and_o pain_n of_o building_n in_o hope_n and_o prospect_n of_o his_o future_a habitation_n but_o why_o do_v i_o mention_v this_o in_o man_n since_o even_o the_o small_a infect_v direct_v their_o action_n with_o the_o instinct_n of_o what_o be_v to_o come_v thus_o the_o aunt_n in_o their_o subterranean_a cell_n lay_v up_o what_o various_a fruit_n they_o can_v and_o gather_v all_o their_o stock_n in_o order_n to_o preserve_v their_o life_n so_o bee_n when_o they_o lie_v the_o foundation_n for_o their_o honey-comb_n or_o gather_v that_o which_o come_v from_o the_o flower_n to_o what_o end_n do_v they_o
