night_n as_o their_o guide_n and_o a_o angel_n for_o their_o safeguard_v and_o yet_o the_o israelite_n will_v be_v tempt_v provoke_a and_o murmur_v let_v one_o come_v and_o do_v the_o work_n which_o

the_o obstinate_a jew_n will_v be_v incredulous_a let_v a_o ghost_n appear_v and_o preach_v over_o the_o despise_a doctrine_n of_o the_o soul_n immortality_n and_o the_o reality_n of_o a_o future_a state_n and_o of_o a_o judgement_n to_o come_v and_o reinforce_v it_o from_o his_o own_o knowledge_n and_o experience_n and_o verify_v all_o this_o by_o his_o return_n from_o the_o dead_a and_o yet_o the_o sinner_n the_o customary_a sinner_n be_v not_o to_o be_v reclaim_v who_o like_o the_o deaf_a adder_n stop_v his_o ear_n against_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o charmer_n charm_v he_o never_o so_o

of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o conviction_n of_o their_o own_o mind_n have_v to_o reclaim_v they_o from_o it_o we_o see_v that_o though_o they_o have_v line_n upon_o line_n the_o most_o powerful_a

where_o person_n be_v thus_o under_o the_o power_n of_o their_o lust_n they_o will_v continue_v in_o the_o same_o state_n if_o one_o come_v from_o the_o dead_a to_o warn_v and_o reprove_v they_o and_o therefore_o if_o john_n b._n have_v rose_n from_o the_o dead_a as_o herod_n once_o imagine_v and_o believe_v 2._o it_o will_v no_o more_o have_v make_v he_o a_o true_a penitent_n than_o the_o preach_a of_o that_o holy_a man_n do_v when_o alive_a as_o long_o as_o herodias_n be_v by_o he_o to_o seduce_v he_o and_o he_o be_v content_v to_o be_v seduce_v 2._o the_o case_n be_v the_o same_o with_o person_n in_o delay_a heir_n repentance_n and_o if_o the_o excuse_v against_o the_o present_a necessity_n of_o it_o prevail_v in_o one_o case_n they_o will_v also_o prevail_v in_o the_o other_o so_o that_o he_o that_o will_v not_o be_v persuade_v to_o a_o present_a repentance_n by_o the_o argument_n of_o the_o gospel_n will_v not_o be_v persuade_v by_o the_o testimony_n and_o admonition_n of_o one_o from_o the_o dead_a and_o upon_o the_o whole_a the_o question_n be_v whether_o a_o person_n may_v not_o reason_v the_o same_o way_n and_o as_o much_o to_o his_o own_o delusion_n against_o the_o testimony_n and_o persuasion_n of_o one_o from_o the_o dead_a as_o against_o the_o authority_n and_o argument_n of_o scripture_n and_o at_o last_o be_v as_o far_o from_o repentance_n and_o a_o present_a repentance_n and_o whether_o there_o be_v not_o reason_n to_o conclude_v that_o if_o these_o and_o the_o like_a excuse_n prove_v sufficient_a to_o detain_v man_n in_o impenitency_n notwithstanding_o all_o the_o argument_n to_o the_o contrary_a contain_v in_o scripture_n the_o same_o will_v not_o be_v of_o as_o much_o force_n and_o have_v as_o much_o influence_n upon_o the_o sinner_n if_o one_o shall_v come_v from_o the_o dead_a to_o admonish_v he_o i_o be_o confident_a that_o this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v gainsay_v and_o so_o the_o proposition_n before_o lay_v down_o remain_v good_a that_o the_o reason_n for_o which_o person_n give_v no_o heed_n to_o or_o be_v not_o persuade_v by_o the_o authority_n and_o argument_n of_o scripture_n to_o believe_v and_o repent_v will_v keep_v they_o from_o give_v heed_n to_o and_o be_v persuade_v by_o the_o come_n of_o one_o from_o the_o dead_a but_o this_o be_v a_o case_n i_o shall_v not_o further_o prosecute_v for_o it_o need_v consideration_n rather_o than_o proof_n i_o shall_v therefore_o close_v all_o with_o three_o or_o four_o inference_n 1._o from_o hence_o i_o infer_v that_o there_o be_v no_o absolute_a need_n of_o any_o other_o course_n to_o be_v take_v for_o the_o conviction_n and_o conversion_n of_o sinner_n than_o what_o be_v already_o take_v or_o that_o extraordinary_a mean_n shall_v be_v use_v where_o the_o ordinary_a be_v sufficient_a if_o there_o be_v a_o revelation_n which_o be_v believe_v certain_o to_o be_v divine_a and_o the_o argument_n contain_v in_o that_o revelation_n be_v sufficient_a to_o persuade_v man_n to_o believe_v and_o repent_v then_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o miracle_n nor_o of_o a_o voice_n from_o heaven_n nor_o the_o resurrection_n of_o one_o from_o the_o dead_a if_o there_o be_v impenitency_n with_o reason_n and_o proof_n sufficient_a to_o convince_v and_o persuade_v man_n there_o will_v be_v impenitency_n still_o with_o such_o proof_n as_o be_v more_o than_o
