be_v account_v the_o disciple_n of_o he_o who_o be_v the_o most_o innocent_a the_o most_o sincere_a and_o the_o least_o intrigue_a person_n in_o the_o world_n assure_v yourselves_o no_o dishonesty_n can_v prosper_v long_o whatever_o turn_v you_o may_v serve_v by_o it_o at_o present_a yet_o you_o will_v bitter_o repent_v of_o it_o some_o time_n or_o other_o but_o righteousness_n and_o justice_n do_v establish_v a_o man_n way_n and_o the_o upright_a man_n though_o he_o be_v not_o always_o the_o rich_a yet_o always_o walk_v most_o sure_o and_o as_o for_o the_o final_a event_n of_o thing_n remember_v this_o that_o god_n almighty_n have_v pronounce_v that_o no_o unrighteous_a man_n no_o covetous_a no_o liar_n no_o extortioner_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o to_o go_v on_o iii_o the_o next_o thing_n i_o have_v to_o exhort_v you_o to_o from_o the_o word_n of_o my_o text_n be_v the_o practice_n of_o purity_n for_o after_o the_o apostle_n have_v recommend_v the_o pursuit_n of_o thing_n that_o be_v true_a and_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v honest_a and_o just_a he_o next_o add_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v pure_a mean_v hereby_o that_o we_o shall_v study_v to_o be_v pure_a and_o chaste_a and_o temperate_a both_o in_o our_o heart_n and_o life_n avoid_v all_o excess_n and_o lewdness_n and_o sensuality_n and_o if_o he_o think_v it_o convenient_a in_o that_o age_n of_o strictness_n and_o severity_n and_o devotion_n to_o put_v the_o christian_n in_o mind_n of_o this_o i_o be_o sure_a it_o be_v not_o only_o convenient_a but_o necessary_a to_o do_v it_o in_o this_o age_n of_o we_o when_o luxury_n and_o debauchery_n when_o whoredom_n and_o drunkenness_n and_o all_o sort_n of_o vice_n that_o be_v contrary_a to_o purity_n be_v grow_v to_o that_o height_n among_o we_o that_o we_o seem_v to_o defy_v god_n almighty_a by_o our_o impudent_a practice_n of_o they_o and_o provoke_v he_o to_o give_v we_o up_o to_o destruction_n i_o pray_v god_n make_v the_o whole_a nation_n deep_o sensible_a of_o the_o folly_n and_o wickedness_n as_o well_o as_o of_o the_o danger_n and_o dreadful_a consequence_n of_o these_o practice_n and_o as_o for_o you_o who_o be_v here_o present_a let_v i_o bespeak_v you_o in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n dear_o belove_v i_o beseech_v you_o as_o stranger_n and_o pilgrim_n to_o abstain_v from_o fleshly_a lust_n which_o war_n against_o the_o soul_n i_o beseech_v you_o as_o you_o have_v any_o honour_n for_o your_o lord_n and_o master_n as_o you_o have_v any_o regard_n to_o the_o preservation_n of_o a_o sense_n of_o religion_n in_o your_o mind_n as_o you_o have_v any_o concern_v for_o your_o health_n for_o your_o estate_n for_o your_o family_n as_o you_o have_v any_o respect_n to_o the_o public_a that_o effeminacy_n and_o sottishness_n and_o disease_n may_v not_o be_v entail_v upon_o our_o posterity_n last_o as_o you_o love_v your_o own_o soul_n and_o hope_v ever_o to_o see_v the_o face_n of_o god_n in_o heaven_n learn_v to_o live_v sober_o learn_v to_o live_v chaste_o learn_v to_o practice_v purity_n and_o temperance_n in_o all_o your_o conversation_n avoid_v whoredom_n and_o drunkenness_n as_o you_o will_v the_o plague_n for_o certain_o they_o be_v the_o worst_a of_o plague_n to_o they_o that_o use_v they_o for_o other_o plague_n do_v only_o put_v our_o body_n in_o danger_n but_o these_o do_v endanger_v both_o our_o soul_n and_o body_n nay_o as_o to_o the_o one_o i_o mean_v our_o soul_n they_o will_v prove_v certain_a inevitable_a destruction_n without_o repentance_n and_o reformation_n i_o know_v these_o thing_n be_v make_v slight_a matter_n of_o by_o a_o great_a many_o among_o we_o but_o assure_v yourselves_o god_n will_v not_o account_v they_o so_o it_o be_v certain_a he_o will_v not_o if_o we_o may_v believe_v his_o word_n for_o it_o be_v there_o tell_v we_o express_o that_o whoremonger_n and_o adulterer_n god_n will_v judge_v and_o withal_o that_o neither_o adulterer_n nor_o fornicator_n nor_o unclean_a person_n nor_o drunkard_n shall_v ever_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n or_o of_o christ._n iv._o i_o proceed_v to_o the_o last_o head_n of_o advice_n that_o be_v give_v in_o my_o text._n the_o apostle_n have_v instance_a in_o three_o thing_n necessary_a to_o be_v daily_o think_v upon_o and_o pursue_v by_o all_o christian_n viz._n truth_n and_o honesty_n and_o purity_n leave_v off_o to_o meddle_v any_o far_a with_o particular_n and_o sum_n up_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o advice_n in_o general_n and_o that_o sum_n come_v to_o this_o that_o as_o we_o be_v christian_n we_o shall_v not_o only_o take_v care_n of_o the_o three_o forementioned_a thing_n but_o shall_v make_v it_o our_o business_n to_o improve_v ourselves_o in_o every_o other_o sort_n of_o virtue_n nay_o in_o every_o other_o sort_n of_o thing_n that_o be_v praiseworthy_a or_o that_o be_v well_o esteem_v of_o among_o mankind_n so_o that_o real_o it_o shall_v be_v the_o endeavour_n of_o our_o life_n to_o render_v ourselves_o as_o excellent_a and_o as_o exemplary_a for_o all_o sort_n of_o amiable_a quality_n as_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o man_n to_o be_v in_o this_o world_n this_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o full_a meaning_n of_o those_o four_o expression_n that_o follow_v in_o my_o text_n whatsoever_o thing_n be_v lovely_a whatsoever_o thing_n be_v of_o good_a report_n if_o there_o be_v any_o virtue_n if_o there_o be_v any_o praise_n think_v of_o these_o thing_n and_o now_o brethren_n see_v from_o hence_o what_o your_o obligation_n be_v you_o that_o have_v such_o a_o glorious_a light_n vouchasafe_v you_o such_o unvaluable_a promise_n such_o mighty_a assistance_n make_v over_o to_o you_o by_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n you_o must_v in_o reason_n imagine_v that_o in_o return_n of_o these_o great_a advantage_n great_a thing_n be_v expect_v from_o you_o it_o will_v not_o satisfy_v your_o engagement_n that_o you_o do_v believe_v and_o profess_v the_o gospel_n that_o you_o do_v no_o wrong_n to_o your_o neighbour_n that_o you_o be_v neither_o give_v to_o lewdness_n nor_o drunkenness_n though_o yet_o even_a these_o as_o the_o world_n go_v be_v very_o great_a thing_n and_o can_v all_o man_n that_o profess_v christianity_n true_o say_v this_o of_o themselves_o we_o shall_v soon_o see_v heaven_n upon_o earth_n but_o your_o christianity_n oblige_v you_o to_o aspire_v after_o great_a thing_n you_o must_v get_v yourselves_o possess_v of_o the_o whole_a circle_n of_o virtue_n you_o must_v be_v kind_a and_o charitable_a as_o well_o as_o just_a and_o honest_a you_o must_v be_v modest_a and_o meek_a and_o humble_a as_o well_o as_o temperate_a and_o chaste_a nay_o not_o only_o so_o but_o you_o be_v to_o labour_v after_o all_o these_o several_a virtue_n in_o the_o full_a latitude_n and_o extent_n of_o they_o even_o to_o that_o degree_n that_o every_o thing_n which_o have_v but_o the_o appearance_n of_o evil_n be_v to_o be_v avoid_v by_o you_o you_o be_v not_o only_o to_o abstain_v from_o act_n of_o injustice_n but_o even_o from_o do_v a_o hard_a thing_n to_o any_o one_o you_o be_v not_o only_o to_o keep_v yourselves_o within_o the_o know_a limit_n of_o temperance_n and_o chastity_n but_o to_o avoid_v all_o those_o thing_n that_o border_n upon_o the_o vice_n opposite_a thereunto_o and_o so_o as_o to_o all_o other_o instance_n if_o a_o thing_n be_v of_o ill_a report_n and_o look_v infamous_o to_o the_o sober_a part_n of_o mankind_n why_o that_o very_a consideration_n be_v enough_o to_o deter_v you_o from_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o for_o you_o be_v to_o recommend_v your_o religion_n to_o all_o the_o man_n in_o the_o world_n by_o all_o the_o way_n that_o be_v possible_a in_o a_o word_n you_o be_v to_o endeavour_v to_o be_v as_o free_v from_o blame_n in_o your_o whole_a conversation_n as_o you_o possible_o can_v and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o to_o be_v as_o good_a and_o to_o do_v as_o much_o
