to_o say_v to_o you_o concern_v this_o matter_n 1._o the_o first_o be_v to_o put_v you_o in_o mind_n of_o your_o great_a happiness_n and_o privilege_n that_o you_o have_v above_o these_o poor_a people_n we_o speak_v of_o in_o this_o particular_a inasmuch_o as_o the_o lord_n have_v deal_v more_o liberal_o with_o you_o then_o with_o they_o he_o have_v do_v that_o which_o concern_v they_o be_v but_o a_o question_n be_v to_o you_o out_o of_o question_n to_o you_o be_v this_o salvation_n send_v which_o to_o they_o be_v deny_v to_o you_o this_o son_n be_v give_v to_o you_o be_v he_o come_v to_o you_o he_o offer_v himself_o in_o his_o gospel_n in_o his_o ordinance_n how_o happy_a be_v you_o if_o you_o can_v see_v your_o happiness_n to_o who_o such_o mean_n of_o happiness_n be_v afford_v what_o a_o price_n have_v you_o in_o your_o hand_n to_o get_v knowledge_n life_n and_o salvation_n what_o fair_a opportunity_n to_o build_v up_o yourselves_o in_o grace_n here_o and_o to_o lay_v for_o yourselves_o a_o foundation_n of_o glory_n hereafter_o bless_a be_v your_o eye_n that_o see_v the_o thing_n that_o you_o see_v and_o your_o ear_n that_o hear_v the_o thing_n that_o you_o hear_v which_o king_n and_o prophet_n have_v desire_v to_o see_v and_o hear_v and_o have_v not_o and_o which_o to_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n beside_o have_v be_v deny_v but_o how_o miserable_a be_v you_o if_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o these_o mean_v you_o shall_v miscarry_v if_o such_o a_o light_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n you_o shall_v love_v darkness_n rather_o than_o light_n if_o have_v such_o a_o price_n put_v into_o your_o hand_n to_o get_v knowledge_n grace_n and_o glory_n you_o like_a fool_n shall_v have_v no_o heart_n if_o the_o lord_n have_v free_o give_v you_o his_o son_n you_o shall_v not_o receive_v he_o how_o ill_o must_v the_o lord_n need_v take_v this_o at_o your_o hand_n &_o how_o heavy_o will_v he_o charge_v you_o another_o day_n as_o be_v in_o the_o number_n of_o those_o that_o wilful_o forsake_v their_o own_o mercy_n that_o refuse_v and_o despise_v great_a salvation_n and_o thrust_v from_o they_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n he_o will_v have_v gather_v you_o but_o you_o will_v not_o be_v gather_v he_o will_v have_v heal_v you_o but_o you_o will_v not_o be_v heal_v 2._o wherefore_o the_o next_o duty_n charge_v upon_o you_o be_v this_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v so_o free_o give_v you_o his_o son_n then_o be_v it_o your_o duty_n with_o all_o joy_n and_o thankfulness_n to_o receive_v he_o it_o be_v not_o the_o send_n of_o his_o son_n that_o will_v make_v you_o happy_a nor_o the_o give_v but_o the_o receive_n of_o this_o gift_n that_o will_v enrich_v you_o receive_v he_o therefore_o by_o your_o ready_a and_o cheerful_a entertainment_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o which_o he_o offer_v himself_o unto_o you_o receive_v he_o into_o your_o heart_n by_o faith_n into_o
