to_o god_n def._n 10_o a_o ten_o defect_n in_o confession_n of_o sin_n to_o god_n be_v this_o that_o they_o be_v bold_a and_o adventurous_a to_o commit_v the_o sin_n again_o which_o they_o have_v

a_o word_n of_o use_n further_o for_o direction_n if_o it_o be_v so_o that_o justify_v person_n be_v bind_v to_o make_v secret_a confession_n unto_o god_n then_o first_o christian_n keep_v a_o heedfulness_n over_o your_o heart_n that_o you_o may_v not_o let_v sin_n go_v unconfe_v make_v conscience_n and_o be_v heedful_a that_o sin_n commit_v by_o you_o may_v not_o be_v unconfe_v a_o sin_n unconfe_v as_o to_o the_o apprehension_n may_v be_v unpardoned_a a_o sin_n unconfe_v can_v be_v mourn_v for_o can_v be_v actual_o repent_v of_o observe_v that_o a_o less_o sin_n unrepented_a of_o may_v damn_v a_o man_n when_o a_o great_a sin_n that_o be_v confess_v to_o god_n may_v be_v pardon_v if_o you_o compare_v saul_n and_o david_n together_o 1_o sam._n 15.9_o but_o saul_n and_o the_o

record_v in_o scripture_n it_o be_v a_o note_n that_o hildersham_n have_v on_o psal_n 51._o touch_v david_n foul_a sin_n i_o do_v not_o read_v of_o any_o express_a example_n in_o all_o the_o scripture_n of_o a_o godly_a man_n fall_v oft_o into_o the_o same_o gross_a sin_n after_o repentance_n and_o after_o humiliation_n for_o that_o sin_n observe_v this_o further_a that_o though_o it_o be_v possible_a yet_o it_o be_v but_o very_o rare_a and_o though_o there_o be_v instance_n that_o some_o man_n have_v do_v so_o yet_o there_o be_v more_o plentiful_a instance_n that_o good_a man_n have_v not_o do_v so_o i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o few_o instance_n jehosaphat_n enter_v into_o a_o sinful_a league_n with_o ahaziah_n but_o when_o the_o prophet_n rebuke_v he_o read_v the_o story_n 1_o king_n 22._o he_o have_v sin_v once_o with_o his_o father_n but_o he_o will_v not_o sin_v a_o second_o time_n with_o he_o so_o that_o here_o you_o see_v a_o good_a man_n will_v not_o a_o second_o time_n join_v with_o a_o ahaziah_n so_o likewise_o you_o have_v the_o instance_n in_o judah_n that_o be_v father_n in_o law_n to_o thamar_n gen._n 38.26_o and_o judah_n acknowledge_v they_o and_o say_v she_o have_v be_v more_o righteous_a than_o i_o because_o that_o i_o give_v she_o not_o to_o shelah_n my_o son_n and_o he_o know_v she_o again_o no_o more_o it_o be_v not_o again_o do_v he_o

david_n be_v adulterous_a but_o never_o but_o once_o this_o therefore_o shall_v be_v one_o caution_n second_o take_v this_o caution_n that_o you_o may_v not_o be_v embolden_v to_o run_v often_o into_o the_o same_o sin_n if_o a_o man_n do_v often_o commit_v the_o same_o gross_a sin_n it_o argue_v a_o great_a strength_n and_o prevalency_n that_o that_o sin_n have_v over_o he_o then_o all_o other_o

of_o a_o man_n in_o a_o lose_a condition_n i_o do_v not_o say_v they_o be_v such_o symptom_n that_o infallible_o conclude_v a_o man_n to_o be_v a_o unpardoned_a man_n i_o may_v say_v as_o physician_n say_v of_o a_o relapse_n into_o the_o same_o disease_n the_o second_o time_n be_v more_o dangerous_a than_o the_o first_o disease_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o first_o sickness_n feed_v on_o

it_o be_v a_o clear_a symptom_n of_o the_o prevalency_n of_o that_o sin_n it_o be_v worth_a your_o notice_n what_o symptom_n the_o lord_n do_v give_v of_o the_o plague_n of_o leprosy_n for_o the_o priest_n to_o judge_v that_o disease_n by_o levit._n 13._o the_o first_o symptom_n be_v when_o the_o hair_n be_v turn_v white_a in_o the_o sore_a divine_n accommodate_v that_o to_o a_o continuance_n

a_o man_n self_n into_o the_o same_o road_n of_o wickedness_n there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o world_n do_v more_o harden_v the_o heart_n then_o when_o the_o same_o sin_n have_v the_o same_o inroad_n

will_v say_v if_o i_o do_v fall_v often_o into_o the_o same_o sin_n what_o may_v be_v to_o stay_v my_o heart_n up_o that_o i_o may_v be_v in_o a_o pardon_a estate_n for_o all_o this_o i_o say_v this_o to_o you_o though_o thou_o do_v fall_v often_o into_o the_o same_o sin_n yet_o if_o thy_o conscience_n bear_v thou_o witness_v thou_o do_v exercise_v the_o same_o grace_n often_o in_o opposition_n to_o the_o same_o sin_n thou_o may_v have_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o comfort_n that_o thou_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o pardon_n the_o five_o case_n follow_v but_o whether_o may_v a_o godly_a man_n that_o be_v pardon_v pray_v for_o pardon_n of_o sin_n antinomian_o account_v this_o to_o be_v needless_a they_o account_v all_o prayer_n for_o pardon_n to_o be_v only_o in_o this_o sense_n to_o wit_n for_o a_o sense_n of_o pardon_n and_o a_o manifestation_n of_o pardon_n answ_n first_o though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n do_v not_o call_v a_o man_n to_o pray_v for_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v perfect_o do_v so_o as_o never_o to_o be_v do_v again_o yet_o god_n do_v command_v we_o to_o pray_v for_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v but_o imperfect_o do_v i_o be_o not_o to_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o

of_o christ_n christ_n be_v come_v into_o the_o flesh_n but_o though_o i_o be_o not_o to_o pray_v for_o these_o thing_n that_o be_v so_o full_o and_o perfect_o do_v yet_o i_o be_o to_o pray_v for_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v imperfect_o do_v pardon_v of_o sin_n be_v a_o act_n of_o god_n that_o be_v still_o in_o do_v therefore_o the_o apostle_n refer_v pardon_n rom._n 3.24_o 25._o be_v justify_v free_o by_o his_o grace_n through_o the_o redemption_n that_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n who_o god_n have_v set_v forth_o to_o be_v a_o propitiation_n though_o faith_n in_o his_o blood_n to_o

therefore_o that_o reason_n be_v not_o valid_a to_o take_v off_o man_n from_o pray_v for_o pardon_n of_o sin_n the_o scripture_n do_v express_v it_o i_o acknowledge_v my_o transgression_n and_o thou_o
