if_o thou_o think_v that_o this_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o reconciliation_n no_o the_o bottom_n of_o reconciliation_n be_v non_fw-la imputation_n have_v thou_o a_o evidence_n to_o thy_o soul_n that_o god_n have_v reveal_v christ_n to_o thou_o and_o that_o in_o his_o son_n he_o have_v impute_v thy_o sin_n to_o thou_o and_o do_v thou_o build_v thy_o peace_n upon_o that_o this_o will_v hold_v many_o build_v their_o peace_n upon_o this_o that_o their_o sin_n be_v not_o so_o and_o so_o great_a as_o other_o be_v what_o of_o that_o if_o it_o be_v but_o one_o sin_n that_o thou_o be_v guilty_a of_o though_o it_o be_v of_o the_o least_o nature_n yet_o if_o it_o be_v impute_v to_o thou_o it_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v thy_o soul_n and_o god_n eternal_o enemy_n other_o there_o be_v who_o sin_n be_v

when_o he_o please_v and_o first_o or_o last_o will_v do_v it_o so_o thou_o have_v get_v thyself_o into_o a_o kind_n of_o peace_n and_o wear_v out_o the_o trouble_n of_o thy_o conscience_n yet_o know_v that_o so_o long_o as_o thy_o sin_n be_v upon_o the_o score_n and_o be_v not_o wipe_v off_o god_n will_v call_v for_o payment_n soon_o or_o latter_a therefore_o pleace_v not_o thyself_o in_o

minister_n commission_n to_o preach_v reconciliation_n to_o the_o world_n we_o now_o pass_v on_o to_o the_o next_o thing_n and_o that_o be_v the_o commission_n for_o declaration_n of_o this_o doctrine_n of_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n in_o chrst_n in_o the_o last_o word_n of_o the_o 19_o verse_n and_o have_v commit_v unto_o we_o the_o word_n of_o reconciliation_n god_n have_v commit_v unto_o we_o i_o find_v the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a different_a from_o that_o they_o be_v read_v in_o your_o english_a bibles_n the_o word_n commit_v be_v and_o put_v into_o we_o so_o the_o word_n be_v put_v in_o this_o word_n of_o reconciliation_n so_o if_o you_o read_v it_o word_n for_o word_n according_a to_o the_o original_a text_n it_o be_v thus_o and_o he_o have_v put_v in_o we_o the_o word_n of_o reconciliation_n but_o because_o this_o kind_n of_o read_v will_v seem_v to_o be_v something_o harsh_a in_o our_o english_a phrase_n therefore_o the_o translator_n have_v translate_v it_o thus_o and_o have_v commit_v to_o we_o but_o the_o original_a exprss_n it_o in_o this_o manner_n to_o show_v what_o it_o be_v that_o be_v needful_a to_o a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o he_o shall_v have_v the_o doctrine_n of_o reconciliation_n to_o sink_v deep_a into_o his_o own_o heart_n first_o that_o so_o when_o he_o come_v to_o speak_v to_o the_o heart_n of_o other_o man_n he_o may_v speak_v from_o the_o heart_n and_o so_o to_o the_o heart_n the_o word_n that_o come_v from_o heart_n we_o say_v go_v to_o the_o heart_n therefore_o it_o be_v of_o great_a use_n that_o one_o that_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v have_v the_o word_n of_o reconciliation_n the_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n deep_o root_v in_o his_o heart_n that_o when_o he_o come_v to_o speak_v to_o the_o people_n he_o may_v speak_v it_o not_o mere_o from_o his_o tongue_n and_o head_n but_o from_o his_o heart_n experimental_o that_o his_o heart_n may_v be_v in_o his_o ministry_n that_o so_o it_o may_v be_v more_o effectual_a to_o go_v to_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o people_n to_o who_o he_o speak_v and_o that_o expression_n be_v somewhat_o like_a to_o this_o 1._o gal._n 16._o verse_n in_o the_o 15._o verse_n it_o be_v say_v but_o when_o it_o please_v god_n who_o separate_v i_o from_o my_o mother_n womb_n and_o call_v i_o by_o his_o grace_n to_o reveal_v his_o son_n in_o i_o to_o reveal_v his_o son_n in_v i_o he_o do_v not_o say_v to_o reveal_v his_o son_n too_o i_o but_o in_o i_o so_o the_o word_n be_v so_o that_o indeed_o it_o do_v befit_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o be_v a_o profitable_a minister_n when_o jesus_n christ_n come_v to_o be_v reveal_v in_o he_o and_o so_o much_o for_o the_o expression_n have_v commit_v unto_o we_o that_n be_v put_v in_o we_o the_o word_n of_o reconciliation_n as_o if_o the_o apastle_n shall_v say_v whereas_o the_o lord_n have_v be_v from_o all_o eternity_n plot_v as_o it_o be_v the_o great_a work_n of_o reconcile_a

that_o from_o hence_o the_o point_n be_v this_o according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n doct_n that_o the_o ministry_n of_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n be_v commit_v unto_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n to_o preach_v unto_o the_o world_n the_o minister_n of_o god_n have_v a_o commission_n both_o from_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a spirit_n to_o preach_v the_o doctrine_n of_o

that_o that_o be_v the_o best_a way_n to_o convey_v true_a save_v grace_n unto_o they_o a_o spirit_n of_o life_n into_o they_o it_o be_v by_o this_o mean_n rather_o than_o by_o other_o the_o lord_n choose_v this_o way_n rather_o than_o other_o you_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n say_v paul_n to_o the_o galatian_n and_o how_o have_v you_o receive_v it_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o law_n or_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o way_n be_v the_o conveyance_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n to_o you_o be_v it_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o law_n or_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o

into_o the_o conscience_n it_o be_v the_o open_v the_o riches_n of_o the_o treasure_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o the_o gospel_n therefore_o this_o objection_n have_v no_o strength_n in_o it_o to_o say_v we_o have_v no_o power_n in_o ourselves_o god_n do_v entreat_v and_o beseech_v because_o by_o this_o mean_v he_o put_v forth_o a_o power_n into_o the_o heart_n of_o those_o he_o do_v

upon_o they_o know_v what_o it_o do_v it_o shall_v come_v to_o do_v what_o it_o do_v free_o and_o wil_o though_o we_o have_v no_o free_a will_n at_o the_o first_o yet_o when_o we_o do_v embrace_v the_o gospel_n than_o the_o lord_n do_v cause_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n to_o embrace_v it_o wil_o and_o this_o be_v a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o god_n to_o show_v himself_o to_o his_o creature_n he_o will_v work_v his_o own_o work_n but_o such_o a_o way_n as_o shall_v be_v suitable_a to_o his_o creature_n again_o if_o the_o lord_n shall_v bring_v in_o sinner_n to_o himself_o by_o his_o almighty_a power_n then_o there_o will_v not_o so_o much_o of_o the_o beauty_n and_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n appear_v as_o there_o do_v this_o way_n if_o god_n shall_v effectual_o work_v it_o by_o his_o own_o hand_n i_o say_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o grace_n will_v not_o so_o glorious_o shine_v forth_o now_o it_o be_v the_o special_a design_n that_o god_n have_v in_o all_o his_o work_n about_o redemption_n that_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n may_v appear_v to_o man_n and_o angel_n that_o they_o may_v magnify_v it_o now_o what_o can_v be_v more_o to_o magnify_v grace_n then_o when_o a_o sinner_n shall_v come_v to_o vieu_o the_o several_a working_n of_o god_n mercy_n towards_o he_o how_o the_o lord_n have_v provide_v a_o way_n of_o reconciliation_n and_o that_o though_o the_o soul_n be_v backward_o and_o hang_v of_o yet_o the_o lord_n still_o follow_v on_o and_o put_v on_o the_o soul_n and_o will_v not_o suffer_v the_o soul_n to_o die_v and_o perish_v in_o the_o sin_n of_o it_o what_o will_v magnify_v grace_n more_o than_o this_o the_o way_n of_o bring_v in_o sinner_n to_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o himself_o will_v be_v a_o principal_a subject_n for_o the_o saint_n to_o be_v blessing_n of_o god_n to_o all_o eternity_n and_o therefore_o you_o christian_n that_o have_v find_v the_o work_n of_o god_n bring_v in_o your_o heart_n to_o himself_o observe_v what_o god_n work_v be_v mark_v the_o several_a way_n of_o god_n work_v with_o your_o soul_n for_o know_v that_o those_o several_a way_n of_o god_n work_v with_o your_o soul_n now_o will_v be_v the_o subject_n of_o your_o eternal_a praise_n in_o heaven_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o god_n do_v go_v on_o in_o such_o several_a expression_n that_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n may_v appear_v the_o more_o full_o yea_o and_o further_o that_o by_o this_o mean_v he_o may_v gain_v the_o heart_n of_o sinner_n everlasting_o to_o himself_o there_o be_v nothing_o will_v gain_v they_o so_o unto_o god_n as_o this_o declaration_n of_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o when_o the_o sinner_n shall_v see_v not_o only_o that_o god_n be_v reconcile_v but_o how_o god_n have_v set_v his_o heart_n upon_o it_o how_o earnest_a god_n have_v be_v in_o it_o this_o will_v engage_v the_o heart_n of_o a_o sinner_n for_o ever_o unto_o god_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o those_o sinner_n that_o have_v feel_v most_o of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n bring_v they_o in_o to_o be_v reconcile_v be_v those_o that_o keep_v close_a unto_o god_n as_o for_o such_o as_o be_v only_o stop_v in_o the_o way_n of_o their_o sin_n by_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o law_n and_o be_v not_o acquaint_v with_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o the_o

one_o may_v be_v bring_v to_o do_v that_o have_v no_o true_a save_a grace_n that_o they_o may_v not_o dare_v to_o commit_v a_o sin_n in_o secret_a for_o a_o while_n mere_o our_o of_o terror_n of_o conscience_n but_o now_o these_o man_n they_o be_v only_o wrought_v upon_o by_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o law_n they_o seldom_o hold_v out_o but_o though_o conscience_n bear_v a_o strong_a hand_n to_o keep_v they_o from_o sin_n for_o a_o long_a time_n yet_o at_o length_n they_o break_v those_o bond_n but_o now_o those_o that_o have_v not_o only_a conscience_n enlighten_v and_o do_v not_o see_v the_o danger_n of_o sin_n only_o but_o come_v to_o have_v these_o beam_n of_o the_o grace_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n let_v out_o into_o their_o heart_n and_o their_o heart_n be_v so_o gain_v unto_o god_n by_o this_o that_o they_o will_v never_o depart_v from_o he_o but_o their_o heart_n will_v follow_v to_o the_o bountifulness_n of_o god_n the_o difference_n of_o these_o two_o may_v be_v express_v by_o this_o similitude_n look_v how_o it_o be_v in_o frosty_a wether_n when_o the_o water_n be_v freeze_v there_o be_v two_o way_n to_o come_v by_o the_o water_n the_o husbandman_n go_v in_o the_o morning_n and_o see_v the_o water_n freeze_v and_o beat_v it_o to_o piece_n and_o break_v the_o ice_n but_o though_o he_o do_v so_o the_o next_o morning_n he_o come_v and_o see_v it_o freeze_v as_o much_o as_o before_o but_o when_o there_o come_v warm_a weather_n and_o dissolve_v the_o ice_n than_o it_o quite_o go_v away_o in_o flake_n so_o hence_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o sinner_n be_v freeze_v and_o god_n come_v with_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o law_n and_o beat_v they_o in_o piece_n and_o break_v they_o that_o way_n i_o but_o at_o last_o they_o freeze_v again_o and_o grow_v as_o hard_o again_o as_o ever_o but_o now_o when_o the_o lord_n come_v with_o the_o beam_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o shine_v upon_o they_o then_o their_o heart_n thaw_v and_o the_o ice_n go_v away_o and_o their_o heart_n come_v in_o flow_v to_o god_n in_o another_o manner_n than_o
