for_o your_o other_o wicked_a child_n 4._o consider_v thou_o have_v great_a thing_n to_o affect_v thou_o with_o grief_n and_o sorrow_n than_o thy_o wicked_a child_n there_o be_v whole_a empire_n and_o kingdom_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n and_o child_n who_o have_v as_o precious_a soul_n as_o thou_o or_o thy_o child_n these_o dishonour_n the_o same_o god_n and_o perish_v under_o his_o wrath_n and_o multitude_n that_o have_v the_o scripture_n and_o ordinance_n despise_v the_o same_o christ_n and_o the_o same_o gospel_n as_o thy_o child_n do_v and_o why_o shall_v thou_o be_v more_o concern_v for_o one_o or_o more_o of_o thy_o wicked_a child_n than_o for_o the_o whole_a world_n that_o lie_v in_o wickedness_n 5._o let_v your_o sorrow_n be_v guide_v by_o scripture_n and_o reason_n that_o you_o may_v not_o provoke_v god_n and_o defile_v your_o soul_n and_o wound_v your_o conscience_n by_o sinful_a groan_n and_o tear_n for_o this_o end_n observe_v two_o rule_n first_o mourn_v more_o for_o their_o sin_n whereby_o they_o provoke_v and_o dishonour_n god_n and_o defile_v and_o destroy_v themselves_o and_o other_o than_o for_o any_o shame_n or_o loss_n in_o worldly_a thing_n that_o befall_v you_o hereby_o that_o it_o may_v appear_v that_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o your_o child_n soul_n and_o not_o the_o love_n of_o the_o world_n have_v the_o great_a influence_n on_o your_o sorrow_n for_o i_o fear_v that_o there_o be_v usual_o in_o good_a parent_n too_o much_o of_o carnal_a sorrow_n and_o too_o little_a of_o godly_a sorrow_n in_o their_o mourning_n under_o this_o great_a calamity_n second_o let_v not_o thy_o sorrow_n disease_n thy_o body_n and_o impair_v thy_o health_n god_n do_v not_o require_v we_o to_o mourn_v more_o for_o our_o child_n sin_n than_o our_o own_o and_o he_o never_o make_v it_o our_o duty_n by_o sorrow_n for_o either_o to_o destroy_v our_o body_n which_o be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v that_o godly_a sorrow_n be_v the_o health_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o never_o hurt_v the_o body_n for_o grace_n be_v always_o a_o friend_n and_o never_o a_o enemy_n to_o nature_n and_o therefore_o do_v not_o deprive_v thyself_o of_o all_o opportunity_n to_o honour_n god_n and_o serve_v his_o church_n do_v not_o make_v thy_o yoke-fellow_n desolate_a nor_o thy_o child_n orphan_n by_o such_o sorrow_n that_o will_v neither_o please_v god_n nor_o ease_v thyself_o nor_o do_v any_o good_a to_o thy_o wicked_a and_o miserable_a child_n 6._o labour_v to_o get_v your_o grace_n strengthen_v under_o this_o great_a affliction_n for_o you_o have_v need_n of_o more_o knowledge_n and_o wisdom_n and_o faith_n and_o hope_v and_o love_n and_o meekness_n and_o patience_n to_o enable_v and_o fit_v you_o to_o bear_v this_o than_o most_o other_o affection_n and_o you_o must_v see_v and_o enjoy_v more_o of_o god_n and_o christ_n to_o keep_v up_o your_o heart_n under_o this_o than_o under_o most_o other_o trouble_n yet_o by_o the_o strength_n of_o christ_n you_o may_v be_v enable_v not_o only_o to_o bear_v but_o to_o glory_n in_o this_o tribulation_n and_o the_o great_a the_o trouble_n be_v the_o more_o good_a you_o may_v gain_v by_o it_o 7._o comfort_v thyself_o in_o that_o the_o great_a and_o best_a thing_n which_o thou_o have_v most_o pray_v for_o and_o trust_v unto_o and_o expect_v and_o chief_o love_v and_o desire_v be_v all_o safe_a and_o sure_a 1._o thy_o god_n be_v and_o will_v be_v bless_v and_o glorious_a for_o ever_o whatever_o become_v of_o thy_o child_n all_o his_o infinite_a perfection_n be_v work_v for_o his_o glory_n christ_n himself_o be_v god_n and_o do_v the_o whole_a work_n of_o a_o mediator_n as_o his_o servant_n and_o for_o his_o glory_n all_o the_o bless_a angel_n and_o saint_n will_v for_o ever_o honour_n and_o admire_v and_o love_n and_o praise_v he_o 2._o god_n the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n be_v for_o ever_o thy_o own_o and_o will_v to_o all_o eternity_n be_v glorify_v in_o make_v thou_o bless_v and_o glorious_a thou_o have_v a_o bad_a child_n but_o a_o good_a god_n all_o thy_o work_n will_v be_v do_v thy_o sin_n pardon_v and_o kill_v thy_o grace_n perfect_v and_o body_n and_o soul_n glorify_v and_o shall_v a_o ungodly_a child_n make_v all_o thy_o consolation_n herein_o small_a to_o thou_o last_o consider_v this_o trouble_n will_v last_v but_o a_o little_a while_n i_o confess_v i_o do_v not_o know_v or_o can_v upon_o search_n find_v any_o thing_n that_o can_v lift_v up_o the_o heart_n above_o this_o trouble_n but_o the_o knowledge_n and_o sense_n of_o the_o infinite_a love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n to_o a_o man_n self_n and_o of_o that_o holy_a and_o glorious_a eternity_n which_o this_o love_n will_v short_o bring_v he_o unto_o to_o tell_v you_o that_o this_o be_v and_o have_v be_v the_o case_n of_o other_o godly_a parent_n may_v allay_v something_o of_o your_o grief_n but_o what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o tell_v you_o that_o other_o be_v and_o have_v be_v as_o miserable_a as_o you_o or_o to_o tell_v you_o that_o as_o wicked_a child_n as_o you_o have_v be_v sanctify_v and_o save_v yield_v some_o hope_n but_o it_o can_v amount_v to_o no_o more_o than_o to_o think_v they_o may_v be_v save_v or_o thy_o may_v be_v damn_v and_o there_o be_v as_o much_o reason_n to_o fear_v the_o one_o as_o to_o hope_v for_o the_o other_o but_o for_o a_o man_n to_o see_v a_o gainful_a death_n ready_a to_o loose_v he_o into_o that_o world_n where_o there_o be_v none_o of_o this_o sorrow_n and_o to_o know_v that_o at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n his_o wicked_a child_n will_v be_v no_o more_o to_o he_o than_o bloody_a bonner_n or_o gardiner_n or_o damn_a devil_n and_o that_o he_o himself_o shall_v sit_v with_o christ_n to_o judge_v they_o and_o that_o he_o shall_v love_v and_o delight_n in_o the_o holiness_n and_o justice_n of_o the_o judge_n of_o all_o the_o world_n in_o pass_v that_o sentence_n upon_o they_o depart_v you_o curse_v into_o everlasting_a sire_n prepare_v for_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o angel_n this_o be_v sufficient_a to_o overcome_v all_o immoderate_a grief_n for_o his_o ungodly_a child_n last_o i_o shall_v finish_v this_o discourse_n in_o a_o serious_a exhortation_n to_o these_o ungodly_a child_n who_o be_v the_o grief_n and_o bitterness_n of_o their_o good_a parent_n and_o herein_o i_o shall_v 1._o endeavour_v to_o convince_v they_o of_o their_o sin_n 2._o of_o their_o misery_n 3._o persuade_v they_o to_o forsake_v their_o sin_n that_o so_o they_o may_v be_v free_v from_o that_o misery_n first_o i_o shall_v set_v before_o you_o the_o greatness_n of_o your_o sin_n in_o these_o four_o particular_n 1._o you_o have_v break_v your_o covenant_n with_o god_n 2._o you_o have_v break_v the_o bond_n wherein_o you_o be_v bind_v to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n 3._o you_o have_v break_v the_o bond_n of_o your_o duty_n to_o your_o parent_n 4._o you_o have_v break_v the_o bond_n of_o your_o duty_n to_o your_o other_o relation_n first_o you_o have_v break_v your_o covenant_n with_o god_n whereinto_o you_o be_v solemn_o enter_v by_o baptism_n for_o it_o be_v clear_a by_o that_o scripture_n before_o mention_v levit._n 19.3_o that_o by_o cast_v off_o the_o authority_n of_o your_o parent_n you_o have_v disow_v the_o lord_n to_o be_v your_o god_n your_o breach_n of_o covenant_n with_o god_n appear_v more_o full_o in_o these_o four_o particular_n 1._o you_o do_v in_o your_o heart_n and_o practice_n deny_v the_o be_v of_o god_n the_o first_o article_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v that_o you_o shall_v acknowledge_v and_o believe_v that_o the_o lord_n he_o be_v god_n for_o he_o that_o come_v to_o god_n must_v believe_v that_o he_o be_v hebr._n 11.6_o but_o this_o be_v the_o language_n of_o your_o heart_n and_o life_n that_o there_o be_v no_o god_n you_o deny_v god_n to_o be_v the_o first_o and_o best_a be_v in_o prefer_v the_o creature_n before_o he_o and_o say_v in_o effect_n that_o the_o creature_n be_v all_o and_o the_o great_a jehovah_n be_v but_o as_o a_o cypher_n to_o you_o you_o deny_v his_o omnipresence_n he_o fill_v all_o place_n where_o you_o be_v but_o you_o take_v no_o notice_n of_o he_o the_o presence_n of_o a_o father_n or_o master_n have_v some_o influence_n upon_o you_o but_o it_o work_v not_o at_o all_o upon_o you_o that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n in_o the_o room_n you_o deny_v his_o infinite_a wisdom_n that_o wisdom_n of_o god_n in_o contrive_v the_o work_n of_o salvation_n by_o jesus_n christ_n i_o say_v that_o wisdom_n which_o be_v so_o

thing_n

that_o death_n be_v near_o whatever_o you_o think_v of_o your_o life_n they_o will_v be_v but_o as_o a_o vapour_n or_o shadow_n or_o smoke_n as_o god_n speak_v they_o to_o be_v and_o though_o you_o

your_o day_n of_o grace_n and_o salvation_n and_o dispatch_v you_o into_o that_o world_n where_o no_o new_a creature_n be_v make_v you_o now_o defy_v death_n as_o if_o you_o be_v a_o fit_a match_n for_o the_o king_n of_o terror_n you_o scorn_v the_o grave_n and_o scoff_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n and_o deride_v everlasting_a burn_n but_o when_o god_n shall_v pour_v upon_o you_o your_o own_o wickedness_n jer._n 14.16_o than_o you_o will_v too_o late_o condemn_v yourselves_o for_o fool_n when_o you_o come_v to_o reap_v the_o fruit_n of_o your_o own_o folly_n second_o i_o come_v to_o

that_o you_o be_v not_o ungodly_a child_n as_o indeed_o you_o be_v or_o else_o you_o must_v conclude_v that_o your_o present_a state_n be_v not_o safe_a and_o good_a and_o that_o therefore_o you_o must_v either_o repent_v or_o be_v damn_v and_o perhaps_o the_o devil_n himself_o do_v not_o tempt_v you_o to_o resolve_v that_o you_o will_v never_o repent_v but_o to_o think_v that_o it_o be_v yet_o
