he_o away_o whilst_o we_o sleep_v 13._o when_o there_o be_v such_o a_o perverseness_n of_o mind_n they_o will_v cavil_v eternal_o and_o will_v question_v their_o own_o sense_n rather_o than_o own_o

who_o when_o he_o behold_v in_o his_o hand_n the_o print_n of_o the_o nail_n and_o thrust_v his_o hand_n into_o his_o side_n acknowledge_v he_o and_o say_v my_o lord_n and_o my_o god_n thomas_n

and_o put_v his_o finger_n into_o the_o print_n of_o the_o nail_n and_o thrust_v his_o hand_n into_o his_o wound_a side_n be_v a_o evidence_n no_o more_o to_o be_v question_v than_o whether_o he_o

not_o to_o be_v obtain_v nor_o can_v true_o be_v call_v faith_n without_o and_o this_o be_v a_o reason_n why_o christ_n after_o his_o resurrection_n be_v open_o show_v to_o choose_a witness_n and_o not_o to_o all_o the_o people_n thus_o tertullian_n say_v constaret_fw-la he_o do_v not_o offer_v himself_o to_o the_o view_n of_o the_o people_n lest_o the_o wicked_a shall_v be_v deliver_v from_o their_o error_n he_o add_v and_o that_o faith_n which_o have_v assign_v to_o it_o no_o small_a reward_n may_v meet_v with_o difficulty_n then_o it_o be_v faith_n and_o faith_n be_v a_o virtue_n as_o it_o be_v in_o those_o st._n peter_n speak_v of_o 8._o who_o have_v not_o see_v you_o love_v and_o in_o who_o though_o now_o you_o see_v he_o not_o yet_o believe_v you_o rejoice_v with_o joy_n

inexcusable_a that_o believe_v not_o which_o shall_v be_v the_o subject_a of_o the_o next_o general_n viz._n 3._o that_o it_o be_v a_o sufficient_a proof_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n and_o a_o sufficient_a reason_n for_o our_o belief_n of_o it_o that_o he_o be_v thus_o open_o show_v to_o such_o witness_n though_o not_o to_o all_o the_o people_n there_o be_v a_o absolute_a necessity_n for_o the_o proof_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n that_o he_o shall_v appear_v plain_o and_o visible_o to_o some_o and_o to_o who_o soon_o than_o to_o those_o that_o have_v be_v before_o conversant_a with_o

so_o that_o i_o need_v not_o further_o to_o enlarge_v upon_o this_o argument_n and_o so_o i_o shall_v proceed_v to_o the_o four_o general_n which_o be_v 4._o to_o consider_v the_o testimony_n which_o be_v give_v by_o christ_n resurrection_n to_o the_o doctrine_n teach_v by_o the_o choose_a witness_n and_o that_o be_v christ_n be_v ordain_v by_o god_n to_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o quick_a and_o dead_a in_o which_o there_o be_v these_o four_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v 1._o that_o there_o be_v a_o time_n of_o reckon_a and_o a_o judgement_n to_o come_v when_o all_o man_n shall_v give_v a_o account_n of_o themselves_o to_o god_n and_o be_v determine_v to_o happiness_n or_o misery_n according_a to_o what_o they_o have_v do_v in_o this_o life_n 2._o that_o christ_n be_v ordain_v to_o be_v at_o that_o time_n the_o judge_n of_o quick_a and_o dead_a 3._o that_o this_o be_v as_o certain_a so_o to_o be_v as_o that_o god_n raise_v up_o christ_n from_o the_o dead_a 4._o that_o this_o be_v a_o doctrine_n of_o such_o importance_n and_o universal_a concernment_n to_o all_o mankind_n that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o all_o the_o people_n 1._o that_o there_o be_v a_o judgement_n to_o come_v this_o world_n be_v a_o state_n of_o trial_n where_o every_o person_n have_v a_o work_n to_o do_v a_o office_n to_o discharge_n a_o talon_n to_o improve_v and_o a_o time_n for_o it_o but_o the_o time_n of_o reckon_n when_o a_o person_n be_v to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o his_o stewardship_n be_v reserve_v to_o another_o life_n and_o indeed_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o state_n will_v not_o admit_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v otherwise_o and_o that_o person_n here_o shall_v receive_v their_o final_a doom_n for_o here_o god_n rule_v in_o a_o ordinary_a way_n by_o the_o ministry_n of_o man_n and_o under_o these_o circumstance_n it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o lay_v judgement_n to_o the_o line_n and_o righteousness_n to_o the_o plummet_n and_o to_o bring_v all_o thing_n to_o a_o right_n and_o unerring_a determination_n for_o man_n can_v judge_v only_o according_a to_o outward_a appearance_n and_o can_v understand_v what_o be_v the_o secret_a and_o original_a spring_n of_o action_n which_o often_o be_v lodge_v very_o deep_a and_o yet_o which_o must_v be_v know_v if_o we_o will_v pass_v a_o impartial_a judgement_n again_o there_o be_v action_n of_o the_o heart_n which_o betray_v not_o themselves_o by_o any_o external_n sign_n and_o indication_n and_o so_o be_v only_o knowable_a to_o god_n the_o searcher_n of_o the_o heart_n again_o there_o be_v even_o some_o external_n action_n that_o a_o person_n be_v himself_o only_o privy_a to_o as_o secret_a injustice_n on_o one_o side_n and_o private_a charity_n on_o the_o other_o when_o the_o left_a hand_n know_v not_o what_o the_o right_a hand_n do_v 3._o again_o there_o

be_v many_o act_n good_a or_o evil_a which_o the_o law_n of_o man_n have_v no_o regard_n to_o as_o gratitude_n and_o ingratitude_n that_o be_v high_o commendable_a or_o injurious_a and_o yet_o no_o human_a authority_n do_v oblige_v to_o the_o virtue_n nor_o punish_v the_o want_n of_o it_o again_o man_n be_v very_o partial_a apt_a to_o be_v bias_v by_o enmity_n envy_n interest_n fear_v or_o flattery_n or_o prejudice_n on_o one_o side_n to_o the_o worse_o or_o by_o prepossession_n from_o affection_n and_o interest_n to_o the_o other_o and_o therefore_o there_o need_v a_o high_a tribunal_n where_o universal_a knowledge_n unlimited_a power_n impartial_a administration_n bear_v sway_n where_o all_o thing_n shall_v be_v final_o decide_v all_o case_n full_o resolve_v and_o determine_v according_a to_o the_o merit_n of_o they_o 5._o this_o then_o the_o present_a state_n of_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n do_v show_v this_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n do_v presage_v this_o the_o scripture_n every_o where_o inculcate_n this_o will_v be_v a_o judgement_n exact_a and_o impartial_a final_a and_o irreversible_a a_o consideration_n of_o mighty_a force_n so_o solomon_n think_v it_o when_o he_o conclude_v his_o advice_n with_o it_o eccl._n 12._o 13._o let_v we_o hear_v the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o whole_a matter_n fear_v god_n and_o keep_v his_o commandment_n for_o god_n shall_v bring_v every_o work_n into_o judgement_n with_o every_o secret_a thing_n whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o whether_o it_o be_v evil_a so_o think_v st._n paul_n 2_o cor._n 5._o 9_o 10._o we_o labour_v that_o whether_o present_a or_o absent_a we_o may_v be_v accept_v of_o he_o for_o we_o must_v all_o appear_v before_o the_o judgment-seat_n of_o christ_n v_o 11._o know_v therefore_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o lord_n we_o persuade_v man_n and_o sure_o this_o will_v persuade_v man_n or_o nothing_o will_n this_o will_v persuade_v if_o they_o be_v to_o be_v persuade_v the_o rich_a man_n think_v so_o when_o he_o conclude_v that_o if_o lazarus_n rise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o go_v to_o his_o five_o brethren_n and_o testify_v unto_o they_o concern_v a_o place_n of_o torment_n they_o will_v repent_v and_o sure_o if_o this_o doctrine_n be_v as_o much_o believe_v and_o as_o well_o consider_v as_o it_o be_v of_o importance_n it_o will_v quicken_v the_o slothful_a awaken_v the_o drowsy_a and_o negligent_a reform_v the_o perverse_a and_o conquer_v the_o obstinate_a if_o they_o do_v but_o after_o this_o manner_n reflect_v upon_o themselves_o 7._o be_v the_o time_n come_v when_o whatsoever_o a_o man_n sow_v that_o shall_v he_o also_o reap_v when_o all_o that_o i_o have_v do_v say_v or_o think_v shall_v be_v bring_v into_o examination_n be_v all_o these_o thing_n write_v down_o in_o a_o book_n of_o remembrance_n what_o a_o condition_n then_o be_o i_o in_o to_o appear_v before_o such_o a_o judge_n and_o such_o a_o tribunal_n if_o i_o know_v so_o much_o by_o myself_o who_o have_v keep_v no_o such_o book_n take_v no_o such_o punctual_a account_n of_o myself_o and_o yet_o know_v so_o much_o as_o to_o condemn_v myself_o and_o stand_v condemn_v by_o my_o own_o heart_n what_o shall_v i_o say_v or_o think_v when_o god_n be_v great_a than_o my_o heart_n and_o know_v all_o thing_n 20._o may_v we_o not_o just_o cry_v out_o with_o the_o psalmist_n enter_v not_o into_o

for_o our_o sin_n which_o bring_v i_o to_o the_o second_o 2._o that_o christ_n be_v ordain_v to_o be_v at_o that_o time_n the_o judge_n of_o quick_a and_o dead_a so_o we_o read_v john_n 5._o 22._o

to_o the_o wicked_a that_o he_o be_v then_o to_o be_v the_o judge_n who_o think_v nothing_o too_o dear_a to_o purchase_v their_o redemption_n but_o free_o part_v with_o his_o own_o life_n for_o it_o
