warning_n by_o his_o word_n he_o do_v further_a bewray_v they_o and_o set_v they_o out_o in_o deed_n to_o be_v know_v such_o as_o he_o never_o take_v pleasure_n in_o by_o suffer_v now_o and_o then_o

of_o the_o rest_n to_o repentance_n these_o persuade_v themselves_o that_o they_o do_v live_v godly_a and_o yet_o by_o apparent_a proof_n of_o scripture_n may_v see_v plain_o that_o they_o do_v not_o so_o for_o of_o such_o our_o saviour_n speak_v when_o he_o say_v to_o his_o disciple_n matth._n 5.20_o except_o your_o righteousness_n exceed_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o

some_o of_o all_o these_o three_o sort_n be_v sometime_o prick_v in_o conscience_n and_o sore_o disquiet_v in_o themselves_o for_o their_o sin_n which_o be_v hardly_o procure_v and_o wrought_v in_o the_o most_o hearer_n no_o not_o even_o by_o oft_o and_o sound_a teach_n but_o yet_o in_o deed_n this_o be_v only_o a_o slavish_a terrify_n of_o they_o for_o fear_n of_o the_o punishment_n 21.27_o in_o which_o fear_n they_o do_v also_o confess_v their_o sin_n and_o that_o in_o tear_n sometime_o there_o may_v be_v see_v in_o they_o also_o a_o leave_v for_o the_o time_n of_o some_o of_o their_o

thus_o the_o hypocrite_n do_v not_o pray_v that_o be_v hypocrite_n serve_v god_n always_o meaning_n in_o one_o condition_n of_o life_n as_o in_o another_o in_o peace_n as_o in_o trouble_n yea_o more_fw-it particular_o when_o god_n smite_v and_o plague_v they_o either_o by_o their_o enemy_n disease_n loss_n and_o such_o like_a they_o covenant_n religious_o with_o he_o that_o they_o will_v never_o fall_v from_o he_o any_o more_o but_o they_o flatter_v he_o with_o their_o mouth_n 78.36_o and_o dissemble_v with_o their_o tongue_n their_o heart_n be_v not_o upright_o with_o he_o neither_o be_v they_o faithful_a in_o his_o covenant_n they_o will_v sharp_o tell_v other_o of_o their_o fault_n though_o they_o be_v but_o small_a yea_o though_o they_o be_v but_o so_o in_o their_o opinion_n as_o though_o they_o can_v not_o abide_v that_o god_n shall_v be_v dishonour_v but_o they_o themselves_o will_v not_o take_v a_o reproof_n they_o hate_v to_o be_v reform_v they_o be_v zealous_a in_o some_o thing_n 3.19_o but_o it_o break_v out_o many_o way_n not_o to_o have_v be_v true_a godliness_n by_o their_o inconstant_a fervency_n and_o other_o passion_n they_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n willing_o sometime_o grace_n and_o some_o of_o they_o speak_v of_o it_o with_o joy_n and_o wonder_v at_o the_o heavenly_a wisdom_n of_o it_o but_o it_o vanish_v away_o and_o fleet_v whereas_o if_o

of_o god_n whereby_o one_o will_v think_v sometime_o that_o they_o be_v not_o far_o from_o eternal_a life_n but_o they_o either_o bury_v they_o in_o a_o napkin_n and_o do_v no_o good_a with_o they_o

then_o if_o they_o have_v they_o not_o but_o if_o i_o shall_v reckon_v up_o the_o beadrolle_n of_o gross_a fault_n which_o they_o suffer_v in_o themselves_o and_o nourish_v yet_o under_o the_o name_n of_o infirmity_n it_o shall_v easy_o appear_v to_o such_o as_o have_v any_o judgement_n in_o the_o scripture_n that_o they_o can_v be_v reckon_v among_o the_o believer_n and_o belove_v of_o the_o

these_o fault_n therefore_o let_v the_o believer_n separate_v themselves_o a_o four_o sort_n and_o those_o diverse_a from_o these_o now_o mention_v may_v be_v add_v liver_n who_o be_v sore_o stumble_v

their_o particular_a property_n who_o if_o they_o repent_v not_o will_v in_o the_o end_n though_o i_o hope_v better_o of_o some_o of_o they_o prove_v no_o better_a than_o the_o rest_n among_o who_o they_o be_v to_o be_v count_v who_o seem_v to_o be_v of_o the_o forward_a sort_n do_v yet_o offend_v dangerous_o and_o suffer_v the_o same_o blemish_n before_o man_n to_o break_v forth_o in_o countenance_n speech_n behaviour_n against_o such_o as_o they_o mislike_v though_o far_o better_o than_o themselves_o which_o testify_v that_o their_o heart_n be_v inward_o poison_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n who_o for_o their_o zeal_n that_o they_o have_v towards_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n do_v think_v so_o well_o of_o themselves_o that_o they_o can_v brook_v nor_o abide_v any_o other_o who_o differ_v from_o they_o in_o judgement_n about_o some_o thing_n though_o they_o have_v no_o clear_a ground_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o if_o they_o be_v at_o variance_n with_o any_o how_o honest_a and_o godly_a soever_o yet_o can_v afford_v they_o a_o christian_a and_o friendly_a countenance_n nor_o speak_v a_o word_n to_o they_o brethren_n without_o taunt_a gird_v rate_v or_o wound_v they_o and_o in_o their_o absence_n deface_v and_o defame_v they_o very_o uncharitable_o for_o somewhat_o which_o they_o mislike_v in_o they_o and_o yet_o oft_o time_n without_o any_o just_a cause_n at_o all_o yea_o and_o some_o of_o they_o be_v themselves_o but_o private_a man_n but_o put_v the_o case_n some_o of_o they_o be_v in_o the_o ministry_n and_o man_n unlearned_a do_v make_v it_o a_o

have_v turn_v utter_o to_o become_v schismatic_n and_o other_o have_v not_o be_v far_o from_o they_o which_o kind_n of_o zealous_a professor_n i_o do_v the_o more_o bold_o reprove_v because_o some_o have_v think_v i_o a_o favourer_n of_o such_o their_o readiness_n in_o receive_v the_o gospel_n i_o have_v well_o like_v and_o as_o i_o have_v be_v able_a further_v it_o but_o this_o arrogant_a bold_a
