upon_o god_n to_o comfort_v it_o if_o thou_o go_v and_o daube_v up_o the_o matter_n thyself_o and_o cry_v peace_n peace_n to_o thyself_o thou_o do_v not_o wait_v upon_o god_n thus_o i_o have_v answer_v the_o last_o question_n how_o if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o burden_a and_o trouble_a conscience_n what_o must_v such_o a_o man_n do_v to_o be_v free_v from_o it_o and_o hitherto_o we_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o two_o last_o adjunct_n of_o conscience_n a_o quiet_a conscience_n and_o a_o unquiet_a conscience_n what_o they_o be_v and_z how_o they_o differ_v and_o we_o have_v resolve_v and_o answer_v the_o question_n and_o difficulty_n about_o they_o conscience_n bear_v witness_n of_o our_o person_n concern_v the_o witness_n of_o conscience_n i_o tell_v you_o that_o conscience_n bear_v witness_n of_o two_o thing_n 1._o it_o bear_v witness_n of_o our_o action_n 2._o it_o bear_v witness_n of_o our_o person_n the_o former_a have_v be_v declare_v unto_o you_o at_o large_a i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o latter_a conscience_n bear_v witness_v also_o of_o our_o person_n whether_o we_o be_v good_a or_o evil_n whether_o in_o christ_n or_o in_o sin_n and_o here_o i_o will_v show_v you_o four_o thing_n 1._o that_o every_o man_n conscience_n may_v inform_v he_o what_o state_n he_o be_v in_o whether_o of_o salvation_n or_o damnation_n whether_o of_o grace_n or_o of_o nature_n 2._o how_o conscience_n do_v it_o 3._o when_o conscience_n do_v it_o 4._o how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v then_o that_o so_o many_o thousand_o mistake_n and_o be_v ignorant_a and_o delude_v about_o their_o estate_n i._o for_o the_o first_o that_o every_o man_n conscience_n may_v inform_v he_o what_o estate_n he_o be_v in_o be_v 1._o every_o man_n conscience_n may_v inform_v he_o in_o what_o state_n he_o be_v whether_o good_a or_o bad_a i_o speak_v especial_o of_o such_o as_o live_v under_o the_o light_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n there_o be_v two_o rule_n the_o one_o be_v god_n word_n which_o point_v out_o both_o estate_n and_o the_o other_o be_v every_o man_n conscience_n which_o be_v privy_a to_o the_o frame_n and_o stand_v of_o every_o man_n own_o heart_n and_o which_o of_o these_o estate_n his_o estate_n be_v conscience_n be_v privy_a ●o_o this_o i_o will_v instance_n in_o some_o sort_n of_o man_n 1._o the_o jew_n who_o content_v themselves_o with_o formality_n they_o sacrifice_v they_o offer_v they_o pay_v their_o tithe_n they_o do_v that_o which_o moses_n command_v they_o for_o the_o letter_n of_o it_o now_o you_o shall_v see_v their_o conscience_n can_v tell_v they_o that_o they_o be_v not_o perfect_v nor_o upright_a with_o god_n all_o their_o duty_n and_o formality_n and_o gift_n and_o sacrifice_n can_v not_o make_v they_o that_o do_v the_o service_n perfect_a as_o pertain_v to_o the_o conscience_n heb._n 9.9_o mark_v their_o conscience_n can_v say_v they_o be_v not_o upright_o for_o all_o this_o as_o they_o be_v not_o upright_o so_o their_o conscience_n can_v tell_v they_o they_o be_v not_o upright_o 2._o another_o instance_n we_o have_v in_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n when_o they_o will_v have_v condemn_v the_o woman_n take_v in_o adultery_n their_o own_o conscience_n be_v privy_a that_o they_o be_v sinner_n themselves_o john_n 18.9_o so_o also_o it_o be_v with_o a_o child_n of_o god_n his_o conscience_n be_v able_a to_o inform_v he_o that_o he_o be_v a_o child_n of_o god_n and_o that_o he_o do_v true_o serve_v god_n 1.3_o 2._o tim._n 1.3_o i_o thank_v god_n say_v paul_n who_o i_o serve_v with_o a_o pure_a

in_o whether_o we_o be_v godly_a or_o carnal_a whether_o our_o conversation_n be_v in_o heaven_n or_o on_o earth_n whether_o we_o be_v in_o christ_n or_o out_o of_o he_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n

i_o be_o right_o condemn_v thus_o his_o conscience_n do_v know_v it_o otherwise_o he_o can_v not_o have_v be_v speechless_a in_o his_o own_o defence_n as_o festus_n tell_v agrippa_n that_o he_o

not_o judge_v any_o man_n to_o hell_n but_o he_o will_v have_v his_o accuser_n face_n to_o face_n and_o if_o he_o can_v answer_v for_o himself_o he_o may_v now_o if_o conscience_n be_v not_o privy_a to_o what_o estate_n soever_o a_o wicked_a man_n be_v in_o his_o conscience_n can_v never_o accuse_v he_o face_n to_o face_n at_o the_o last_o day_n nor_o justify_v the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o make_v
