of God and a fore-runner of death and death will follow but the Lord in his mercy hath hidden from vs the time when Whereupon when his Excellence had giuen mee to vnderstand that hee felt hee should dye of this sicknesse His Excel is of opinion that hee should dye of this sicknes and doth desire to be prepared for it I exhorted him to reconcile himselfe with God with whom at this present hee had to doe that hee might then with a quiet Conscience expect whatsoeuer the Lord should dispose of his person Whereupon his P. Excell answered So I doe then I said further it is requisite that aboue all things we doe humble our selues before the Lord by reason of our sinnes which are contrary vnto the most holy commandements of God And in their nature are abhominable in the sight of the Lord who are the occasion of Gods wrath and of all plagues temporall Eternall for which the sonne of God suffered so much on the Crosse Wee must haue an vpright hatred of them condemne them and be ashamed of them according to the example of the Saints confesse them before the Lord. And the strickter wee are in this perticular and the more wee powre out our hearts before the Lord the more capable wee shall be with ioy and thankefulnesse to receiue the riches of Gods mercy And when I had shewed vnto his Excell some parts of Scripture wherein is promised mercy and forgiuenesse of sinnes vnto them that shall truly repent his Excell opened his mouth and said I haue Sinned and presently after with a more vehemency that the very teares stood in his eyes hee said I haue Sinned grossely Whereby I was much moued declaring vnto him that this was an acceptable offering vnto the Lord Psal 51. Such a broken heart will the Lord not despise Shewing him the abundant ioy and comfort all repentant sinners haue in the Lord Iesus Christ who is the onely and perfect attonement for our sinnes Hee is our Righteousnesse who can onely stand before the Lord and he is our life which I had a little before more largely insisted vpon but hauing shewed a few more as Esay 53.1 1 Iohn 2.1 2 Hebrewes 10. I demanded of his Excell if in his heart hee did not comfort himselfe with them Whereupon his Excell with his hands closed confessed his faith saying I take my refuge vnto the great mercy of God His Ex doth confesse his faith and confidence in Christ Iesus Phil. 1.6 And I beleeue that Iesus Christ died for mee on the crosse in whom I put all my trust and these words hee said twice together Whereupon I said this is a true christian faith the Lord from whom all good gifts commeth be praised that hee hath giuen vnto your Excell so great a gift as this faith is and grant to fulfill this worke in you Then I said further in such a heart as this is doth the Holy Ghost worke all desire and loue vnto righteousnesse His Ex earnest desire to serue the Lord better then he confessed to haue done Psal 130. Whereupon his P. Excell said It repenteth mee that I haue not serued the Lord better then I haue done I confesse I haue not serued him enough I will pray him to strengthen mee This said I is most Christianly spoken and so must all faithfull Christians doe If thou O Lord saith Dauid marke mine iniquities O Lord who shall stand But mercy is with thee that thou mayst bee feared If there were no mercy with God no man were able to serue him but now the forgiuenesse of sinnes is an Article of our christian Faith we are all miserable sinners before the Lord and doe all stand in need of his mercy It is true said his Excellencie Then I spoke vnto his Excell comforts from the word of God that his Excell might patiently take this crosse vpon him not doubting but that it would bee for the comfort and saluation of his soule saying that his Excell would doe well to delight himselfe in the meditating vpon that great worke of God which hee did for vs in suffering his Sonne not to be an Angell for Angels but to be man for to redeeme many whose manhood doctrine miracles obedience bloodshedding death resurrection and assention to heauen is all for our good onely in faith constantly beleeuing them as if they had here happened before our eyes and as if wee with the Apostles had seene the word of life with our corporall eyes 1 Iohn 1.13 whereof Iohn speaketh 1 Iohn 1.1.3 The selfe same IESVS doth now sit at the right hand of God desiring and expecting that all those that beleeue in him to be with him and to behold his glory of which glory in regard of our soules after death as also in regard both of soule and body at the day of iudgment Iohn 17.24 I rehearsed vnto his Excell certaine places of Scripture Whereupon when his Excell had spoken these words His Ex words of the ioyes of heauen We cannot conceiue this it is aboue apprehension I said the Angels themselues cannot conceiue this great wonderfull worke of God but doe delight in the contemplation thereof We must beleeue and admire it giuing thankes vnto the Lord that he hath revealed so much vnto vs as doth against the misery which wee haue in this life in some measure giue vs a taste of the ioyes of the life to come and thereupon I rehearsed vnto his Excell what ioy and gladnesse the Apostles had vpon the Mount when they did but onely see a glympse of the heauenly glory and so I alluded also that many times in my sicknesse I was there-with so reioyced and comforted that I felt a taste of the heauenly ioyes within mee Whereupon his Excell enquired for some places of Scripture which I had mentioned vnto him especially of those that spoke of the Prayer of Christ and of the ioyes of the life to come which I repeated vnto him telling him that hee should not disturbe himselfe too much and if hee could not endure much speech to imploy his minde with good thoughts or if he could to let some body reade by him that which should fall into his Excell minde for the word of God is fruitfull and so here with I thought to haue taken my leaue excusing my selfe fearing least I should haue beene ouer-trouble-some vnto his Excell but his Excell detained mee longer with these questions There bee some said he that haue much in their mouthes but they haue no deeds their words and their deeds doe not agree and such there be many Whereunto I answered that those kinde of people were of two sorts some are but hipocrites which doe not meane with their hearts what they say but doe onely seeke to please men those bee but like painted tombes of whom Christ speaketh The Gospell is like vnto a net which catcheth both good and bad fishes In the Lords field groweth both wheate and
