do_v it_o for_o they_o i.e._n though_o i_o have_v do_v it_o and_o intend_v to_o do_v it_o yet_o will_v i_o do_v it_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o prayer_n howsoever_o that_o god_n have_v promise_v eliah_n that_o rain_n shall_v come_v upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o earth_n yet_o he_o go_v upon_o the_o mount_n and_o see_v no_o show_n of_o a_o cloud_n the_o text_n say_v not_o what_o he_o do_v but_o he_o put_v his_o head_n between_o his_o knee_n saint_n james_n say_v he_o pray_v and_o ●he_v open_v heaven_n and_o bring_v down_o rain_n it_o be_v a_o humble_a secret_a gesture_n a_o man_n may_v be_v more_o free_a in_o private_a than_o in_o public_a he_o pray_v and_o the_o heaven_n open_v god_n have_v promise_v it_o and_o will_v do_v it_o but_o yet_o he_o will_v be_v seek_v to_o so_o we_o see_v the_o mediate_a cause_n be_v prayer_n so_o though_o the_o lord_n will_v do_v this_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o he_o will_v be_v inquire_v of_o it_o be_v not_o with_o god_n as_o with_o man_n man_n who_o have_v promise_v will_v be_v loath_a to_o be_v sue_v to_o not_o to_o break_v their_o promise_n they_o account_v that_o a_o dishonour_n to_o they_o but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o god_n god_n have_v promise_v yet_o thou_o shall_v have_v no_o benefit_n of_o it_o until_o thou_o sue_v to_o he_o for_o it_o therefore_o thou_o must_v go_v to_o god_n and_o say_v lord_n fulfil_v thy_o promise_n to_o thy_o servant_n wherein_o thou_o have_v cause_v i_o to_o trust_v god_n love_v to_o have_v his_o bond_n sue_v out_o lord_n make_v good_a this_o word_n perform_v that_o good_a word_n that_o thou_o have_v speak_v god_n will_v have_v his_o bond_n thus_o sue_v out_o and_o as_o thy_o faith_n repentance_n prayer_n be_v renew_v so_o be_v thy_o pardon_n renew_v when_o god_n will_v make_v a_o man_n possess_v the_o sin_n of_o his_o youth_n when_o a_o man_n be_v careless_a this_o way_n it_o please_v god_n to_o awaken_v he_o thou_o write_v bitter_a thing_n against_o i_o and_o make_v i_o to_o possess_v the_o iniquity_n of_o my_o youth_n job_n 13.26_o when_o a_o man_n forget_v the_o iniquity_n of_o his_o youth_n and_o renew_v not_o his_o repentance_n and_o have_v not_o new_a act_n of_o faith_n and_o petition_n than_o god_n make_v he_o to_o possess_v the_o iniquity_n of_o his_o youth_n he_o make_v his_o sin_n stand_v up_o and_o cry_v out_o against_o he_o and_o by_o this_o mean_v his_o old_a evidence_n be_v obliterated_a when_o a_o man_n have_v a_o pardon_n and_o it_o be_v almost_o obliterated_a the_o letter_n almost_o wear_v out_o that_o they_o can_v be_v read_v he_o will_v be_v glad_a to_o have_v it_o renew_v to_o have_v a_o new_a exemplification_n every_o sin_n it_o put_v a_o great_a blur_v upon_o thy_o old_a evidence_n that_o thou_o can_v not_o read_v they_o they_o may_v be_v firm_a in_o heaven_n and_o yet_o perhaps_o be_v so_o blur_v that_o thou_o can_v not_o read_v they_o and_o therefore_o if_o thou_o will_v get_v they_o clear_v again_o thou_o must_v go_v to_o god_n by_o prayer_n and_o renew_v they_o again_o so_o that_o whether_o our_o evidence_n be_v blur_v or_o whether_o it_o be_v that_o god_n will_v make_v we_o possess_v the_o iniquity_n of_o our_o youth_n it_o be_v necessary_a to_o pray_v for_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o those_o sin_n which_o have_v be_v before_o forgive_v but_o now_o you_o will_v say_v when_o i_o have_v sin_v afterward_o how_o come_v i_o then_o to_o be_v justify_v then_o a_o man_n will_v think_v repentance_n only_o do_v it_o and_o without_o repentance_n a_o man_n can_v be_v justify_v but_o you_o must_v understand_v repentance_n be_v not_o a_o instrument_n at_o all_o faith_n only_o be_v the_o instrument_n faith_n justify_v i_o from_o sin_n hereafter_o as_o well_o as_o before_o the_o case_n be_v this_o faith_n bring_v lif●_n the_o righteous_a shall_v live_v by_o his_o faith_n as_o the_o prophet_n habakkuk_n speak_v 2.4_o what_o do_v then_o new_a sin_n do_v there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o sin_n one_o of_o ordinary_a incursion_n which_o can_v be_v avoid_v these_o break_v no_o friendship_n betwixt_o god_n and_o we_o these_o only_o weaken_v our_o faith_n and_o make_v we_o worse_o at_o ease_n but_o there_o be_v other_o sin_n which_o waste_v a_o man_n conscience_n a_o man_n that_o have_v commit_v murder_n adultery_n and_o life_n in_o covetousness_n which_o in_o the_o apostle_n be_v idolatry_n as_o long_o as_o a_o man_n be_v in_o this_o case_n he_o can_v exercise_v the_o act_n of_o faith_n we_o must_v know_v faith_n justify_v not_o as_o a_o habit_n but_o as_o a_o act_n apply_v christ_n to_o the_o comfort_n of_o the_o soul._n now_o a_o waste_a sin_n it_o stop_v the_o passage_n of_o faith_n it_o can_v act_v till_o it_o be_v open_v by_o repentance_n physician_n give_v instance_n for_o it_o those_o that_o have_v apoplexy_n epilepsy_n and_o the_o fall_v sickness_n be_v think_v to_o be_v dead_a for_o the_o time_n as_o it_o be_v with_o eutichus_n yet_o say_v saint_n paul_n his_o spirit_n be_v in_o he_o act._n 20.13_o every_o one_o think_v he_o dead_a yet_o his_o spirit_n be_v in_o he_o however_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o operation_n of_o his_o sense_n it_o do_v appear_v he_o be_v dead_a so_o if_o thou_o be_v a_o careless_a man_n and_o look_v not_o to_o thy_o watch_n and_o to_o thy_o guard_n but_o be_v overtake_v in_o some_o gross_a and_o grievous_a sin_n thou_o be_v take_v for_o dead_a i_o say_v not_o a_o man_n can_v lose_v his_o life_n that_o once_o have_v it_o but_o yet_o in_o the_o apprehension_n of_o other_o and_o of_o himself_o too_o he_o may_v appear_v to_o be_v dead_a as_o in_o epilepsy_n the_o nerve_n be_v hinder_v by_o obstruction_n so_o sin_n obstruct_v the_o nerve_n of_o the_o soul_n that_o there_o can_v be_v that_o life_n and_o work_n till_o these_o sin_n be_v remove_v now_o what_o be_v repentance_n why_o it_o clear_v the_o passage_n that_o though_o faith_n can_v 〈◊〉_d before_o yet_o now_o it_o give_v he_o disposition_n unto_o it_o as_o a_o man_n

pass_v throughout_o now_o when_o repentance_n clear_v the_o passage_n than_o faith_n act_n and_o now_o there_o be_v a_o new_a act_n of_o faith_n faith_n justify_v i_o from_o my_o new_a sin_n faith_n at_o first_o and_o at_o last_o be_v that_o whereby_o i_o be_o justify_v from_o my_o sin_n which_o i_o commit_v afterward_o but_o this_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n what_o do_v it_o free_v we_o from_o in_o sin_n we_o must_v consider_v two_o thing_n the_o fault_n and_o the_o punishment_n now_o consider_v sin_n as_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o and_o as_o it_o respect_v the_o sinner_n as_o act_v by_o he_o as_o respect_v the_o fault_n of_o the_o sinner_n it_o be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d a_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n the_o punishment_n be_v death_n as_o it_o respect_v the_o sinner_n it_o

thing_n remain_v which_o we_o call_v the_o guilt_n at_o if_o a_o man_n commit_v murder_n or_o adultery_n the_o act_n be_v past_a but_o yet_o if_o he_o sleep_v or_o walk_v or_o wake_v the_o guilt_n follow_v he_o if_o he_o live_v a_o hundred_o year_n he_o be_v a_o murderer_n still_o and_o a_o adulterer_n still_o the_o guilt_n follow_v he_o and_o nothing_o can_v take_v away_o the_o murder_n or_o
