a_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n and_o a_o knowledge_n of_o god_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n work_v in_o our_o heart_n our_o conscience_n will_v then_o go_v further_o and_o excuse_v or_o accuse_v we_o according_a to_o the_o light_n that_o be_v in_o the_o word_n so_o that_o the_o conscience_n be_v not_o acquire_v or_o obtain_v at_o what_o time_n we_o be_v enlighten_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n &_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o our_o conscience_n be_v bear_v with_o we_o be_v natural_a to_o we_o and_o be_v leave_v in_o the_o soul_n of_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n and_o as_o there_o be_v some_o spark_n of_o light_n leave_v in_o nature_n so_o there_o be_v a_o conscience_n leave_v in_o it_o and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o more_o that_o same_o light_n that_o be_v leave_v in_o thy_o nature_n shall_v be_v enough_o to_o condemn_v thou_o so_o the_o conscience_n be_v not_o get_v or_o begin_v at_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n or_o at_o that_o time_n when_o we_o begin_v to_o reform_v ourselves_o by_o the_o assistance_n &_o renew_v of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n but_o every_o man_n by_o nature_n have_v a_o conscience_n &_o the_o lord_n have_v leave_v it_o in_o our_o nature_n and_o except_o that_o this_o conscience_n be_v reform_v according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o same_o natural_a conscience_n shall_v be_v enough_o to_o condemn_v thou_o eternal_o therefore_o i_o say_v flow_v from_o a_o knowledge_n of_o the_o mind_n last_o of_o all_o i_o say_v accompany_v with_o a_o certain_a motion_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o we_o express_v this_o motion_n in_o fear_n or_o joy_n tremble_a or_o rejoice_v in_o very_o great_a fear_n if_o the_o deed_n be_v exceed_o heinous_a and_o the_o stroke_n of_o the_o conscience_n be_v very_o heavy_a then_o the_o conscience_n never_o take_v rest_n for_o guiltiness_n will_v ever_o dread_a but_o if_o the_o deed_n be_v honest_a godly_a and_o commendable_a it_o make_v a_o glad_a heart_n and_o make_v the_o heart_n even_o to_o burst_v out_o into_o joy_n so_o to_o be_v short_a in_o this_o matter_n for_o i_o purpose_v not_o to_o make_v a_o common_a place_n of_o i●_n you_o see_v that_o in_o every_o conscience_n there_o must_v be_v two_o thing_n first_o there_o must_v be_v a_o knowledge_n and_o next_o there_o must_v be_v a_o feeling_n whereby_o according_a to_o thy_o knowledge_n thou_o apply_v unto_o thy_o own_o heart_n the_o deed_n do_v by_o thou_o so_o that_o as_o the_o word_n itself_o testify_v it_o arise_v of_o two_o part_n of_o knowledge_n according_a whereunto_o it_o be_v call_v science_n and_o of_o feeling_n according_a whereunto_o the_o con_n be_v add_v and_o it_o be_v call_v conscience_n then_o the_o word_n conscience_n signify_v knowledge_n with_o application_n this_o conscience_n man_n the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v to_o serve_v in_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n for_o many_o use_n to_o wit_n he_o have_v appoint_v every_o one_o of_o your_o conscience_n to_o be_v a_o keeper_n a_o waiter_n on_o a_o careful_a attender_n upon_o every_o action_n do_v by_o you_o so_o that_o that_o action_n can_v be_v so_o secret_o so_o quiet_o nor_o so_o close_o convey_v but_o will_v thou_o will_v thou_o thy_o conscience_n shall_v bear_v a_o testimony_n of_o it_o thy_o conscience_n shall_v be_v a_o faithful_a observer_n of_o it_o and_o one_o day_n shall_v be_v a_o faithful_a recorder_n of_o that_o action_n so_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v thy_o conscience_n to_o this_o office_n that_o it_o attend_v and_o wait_v upon_o thou_o in_o all_o thy_o action_n likewise_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v thy_o conscience_n and_o place_v it_o in_o thy_o soul_n to_o be_v a_o accuser_n of_o thou_o so_o that_o when_o thou_o do_v any_o evil_a deed_n thou_o have_v a_o domestical_a accuser_n within_o thy_o own_o soul_n to_o find_v fault_n with_o it_o he_o have_v also_o place_v it_o in_o thy_o soul_n to_o be_v a_o true_a and_o steadfast_a witness_n against_o thou_o yea_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o conscience_n resemble_v not_o only_o a_o testimony_n or_o witness_n but_o the_o conscience_n be_v as_o good_a as_o ten_o thousand_o witness_n the_o conscience_n also_o be_v leave_v in_o the_o soul_n to_o do_v the_o part_n of_o a_o judge_n against_o thou_o to_o give_v out_o sentence_n against_o thou_o and_o to_o condemn_v thou_o and_o so_o it_o do_v for_o our_o particular_a judgement_n must_v go_v before_o the_o general_a and_o universal_a judgement_n of_o the_o lord_n at_o that_o great_a day_n and_o what_o more_o he_o have_v leave_v thy_o conscience_n within_o thou_o to_o put_v thy_o own_o sentence_n in_o execution_n against_o thyself_o this_o be_v terrible_a he_o have_v leave_v it_o within_o thou_o to_o be_v a_o very_a to_o torture_v and_o tormentor_n to_o thyself_o and_o so_o to_o put_v thy_o own_o sentence_n in_o execution_n upon_o thyself_o be_v not_o this_o a_o matter_n more_o than_o wonderful_a that_o one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o conscience_n shall_v serve_v to_o so_o many_o use_n in_o a_o soul_n as_o to_o be_v a_o continual_a observer_n and_o marker_n of_o thy_o action_n a_o accuser_n ten_o thousand_o witness_n a_o judge_n a_o sergeant_n and_o tormentor_n to_o execute_v thy_o own_o sentence_n against_o thyself_o so_o that_o the_o lord_n need_v not_o to_o seek_v a_o sergeant_n out_o of_o thy_o own_o soul_n to_o arrest_v thou_o for_o thou_o shall_v have_v all_o these_o within_o thyself_o to_o make_v a_o plain_a declaration_n against_o thyself_o take_v heed_n to_o this_o for_o there_o be_v never_o a_o word_n of_o this_o shall_v fall_v to_o the_o ground_n but_o either_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o to_o your_o comfort_n or_o to_o your_o everlasting_a woe_n and_o this_o secret_a and_o particular_a judgement_n that_o every_o one_o of_o you_o carry_v about_o you_o abide_v so_o sure_a and_o so_o fast_o within_o you_o that_o do_v what_o you_o can_v if_o you_o will_v employ_v your_o whole_a travail_n to_o blot_v it_o out_o thou_o shall_v never_o get_v it_o scrape_v out_o of_o thy_o soul_n if_o you_o be_v as_o malicious_a and_o be_v become_v as_o wicked_a as_o ever_o any_o incarnate_a devil_n be_v upon_o the_o earth_n yet_o shall_v you_o never_o get_v this_o conscience_n altogether_o extinguish_v out_o of_o thy_o soul_n but_o will_v thou_o will_v thou_o there_o shall_v as_o much_o remain_n of_o it_o as_o shall_v make_v thou_o inexcusable_a in_o the_o great_a day_n of_o the_o general_a judgement_n i_o grant_v thou_o may_v blot_v out_o all_o knowledge_n out_o of_o thy_o mind_n and_o make_v thyself_o become_v even_o as_o a_o blind_a man_n i_o grant_v also_o that_o thou_o may_v harden_v thy_o heart_n so_o that_o thou_o will_v blot_v out_o all_o feel_n out_o of_o it_o so_o that_o thy_o conscience_n will_v not_o accuse_v thou_o nor_o find_v fault_n with_o thou_o but_o thou_o shall_v have_v a_o delight_n in_o do_v evil_a without_o remorse_n but_o i_o deny_v that_o any_o degree_n of_o wickedness_n in_o the_o earth_n shall_v bring_v thou_o to_o this_o point_n that_o thou_o may_v do_v evil_a without_o fear_n but_o still_o the_o more_o that_o thou_o do_v evil_a and_o the_o long_o thou_o continue_v in_o evil_a do_v thy_o fear_n shall_v be_v the_o great_a you_o in_o despite_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o in_o despite_n of_o the_o malice_n of_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n thy_o fear_n shall_v remain_v and_o though_o they_o will_v both_o conspire_v together_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o banish_v that_o fear_n but_o that_o gnaw_v of_o the_o conscience_n shall_v ever_o remain_v to_o testify_v that_o there_o be_v a_o day_n of_o judgement_n i_o grant_v also_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o vicissitude_n and_o that_o fear_n shall_v not_o always_o remain_v but_o shall_v be_v sometime_o turn_v into_o security_n neither_o shall_v that_o security_n always_o abide_v but_o shall_v be_v turn_v again_o into_o fear_n so_o that_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o get_v this_o fear_n whole_o extinct_a but_o the_o great_a the_o security_n be_v the_o great_a shall_v thy_o fear_n be_v when_o thou_o be_v waken_v three_o i_o grant_v that_o this_o fear_n shall_v not_o be_v blind_a for_o from_o that_o time_n a_o man_n by_o evil_a do_v have_v banish_v knowledge_n out_o of_o the_o mind_n and_o feel_v out_o of_o the_o heart_n what_o can_v remain_v there_o but_o a_o blind_a

therefore_o they_o that_o be_v this_o way_n mislead_v
city_n &_o country_n be_v defile_v with_o these_o vice_n procure_v so_o far_o as_o in_o they_o lie_v a_o evil_a end_n to_o their_o own_o soul_n it_o be_v a_o terrible_a thing_n to_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o so_o many_o as_o let_v they_o loose_v to_o these_o vic●s_n must_v fall_v into_o his_o hand_n for_o it_o can_v be_v but_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n from_o heaven_n

prevent_v he_o shall_v perish_v in_o his_o sin_n and_o this_o be_v not_o one_o of_o the_o least_o judgement_n of_o god_n for_o john_n 8._o it_o be_v count_v one_o of_o the_o most_o terrible_a judgement_n when_o the_o lord_n threaten_v the_o pharisy_n that_o they_o shall_v perish_v in_o their_o sin_n if_o the_o word_n which_o be_v now_o sound_v may_v have_v be_v able_a to_o have_v call_v man_n back_o sure_o it_o have_v be_v clear_o and_o continual_o sound_v but_o when_o i_o look_v to_o the_o effect_n it_o appear_v well_o that_o this_o word_n have_v be_v sound_v to_o the_o harden_v of_o the_o great_a part_n and_o to_o seal_v up_o their_o judgement_n against_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n wrath_n which_o day_n they_o have_v blot_v out_o of_o their_o mind_n and_o put_v out_o of_o

there_o be_v a_o hell_n that_o see_v the_o danger_n we_o may_v press_v to_o eschew_v it_o and_o see_v the_o felicity_n we_o may_v haste_v we_o to_o embrace_v it_o will_v god_n it_o be_v so_o thus_o far_o for_o the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o similitude_n he_o go_v forward_a and_o he_o say_v he_o have_v cut_v he_o off_o from_o his_o beam_n or_o from_o the_o throomb_n that_o go_v about_o the_o

take_v resolute_a purpose_n to_o cut_v off_o my_o life_n from_o his_o beam_n in_o this_o change_n of_o the_o person_n he_o let_v we_o see_v a_o great_a discretion_n and_o knowledge_n in_o himself_o he_o ascribe_v the_o cut_n off_o to_o god_n but_o he_o take_v the_o cause_n to_o himself_o he_o ascribe_v the_o chastisement_n to_o god_n but_o he_o take_v the_o sin_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o chastisement_n to_o himself_o and_o he_o acknowledge_v god_n to_o have_v his_o beginning_n in_o this_o work_n and_o himself_o to_o have_v his_o hand_n in_o it_o also_o he_o acknowledge_v god_n to_o be_v a_o doer_n as_o in_o all_o work_v god_n have_v his_o work_n and_o there_o be_v no_o work_n so_o abominable_a as_o it_o flow_v from_o the_o instrument_n but_o as_o it_o flow_v from_o god_n it_o be_v both_o holy_a and_o just_a so_o this_o wise_a king_n take_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o chastisement_n from_o god_n to_o himself_o happy_a be_v he_o that_o in_o time_n condemn_v and_o judge_v

it_o be_v that_o david_n in_o his_o 51_o psalm_n cry_v out_o and_o say_v against_o thou_o against_o thou_o only_o i_o have_v sin_v now_o see_v it_o be_v he_o only_o that_o forgive_v sin_n let_v we_o

his_o person_n and_o for_o this_o love_n that_o he_o do_v bear_v unto_o he_o he_o neither_o suffer_v the_o bitterness_n to_o remain_v in_o his_o soul_n nor_o his_o body_n to_o see_v the_o grave_n it_o

must_v be_v love_v for_o that_o man_n cause_n that_o take_v away_o his_o sin_n now_o read_v over_o the_o scripture_n what_o man_n be_v that_o who_o have_v take_v away_o our_o sin_n take_v on_o he_o our_o debt_n &_o discharge_v he_o honest_o and_o honourable_o of_o it_o even_o he_o that_o be_v god_n and_o man_n also_o christ_n jesus_n and_o therefore_o in_o these_o same_o word_n quiet_o he_o

and_o to_o who_o the_o lord_n show_v mercy_n it_o be_v for_o his_o cause_n only_o for_o why_o he_o perfect_o satisfy_v for_o the_o whole_a business_n which_o may_v be_v easy_o see_v in_o these_o

and_o more_o than_o the_o law_n require_v for_o the_o second_o table_n require_v only_o that_o we_o shall_v love_v our_o neighbour_n as_o ourself_o but_o christ_n do_v more_o than_o this_o for_o

he_o that_o have_v not_o christ_n to_o be_v his_o intercessor_n that_o man_n shall_v never_o taste_v of_o mercy_n now_o let_v we_o go_v to_o the_o application_n what_o manner_n of_o intercession_n

the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o in_o the_o will_n and_o conscience_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o it_o become_v you_o to_o make_v his_o dwell_a place_n clean_o and_o to_o take_v heed_n unto_o your_o heart_n next_o though_o the_o lord_n of_o heaven_n make_v not_o his_o residence_n there_o yet_o in_o respect_n the_o eye_n of_o god_n be_v a_o all-seeing_a eye_n and_o able_a to_o pierce_v through_o the_o very_a thickness_n of_o man_n flesh_n how_o dark_a and_o gross_a soever_o it_o be_v and_o to_o enter_v into_o the_o very_a secret_a corner_n of_o thy_o conscience_n for_o unto_o the_o all-seeing_a eye_n of_o god_n the_o most_o secret_a corner_n of_o thy_o conscience_n be_v as_o clear_v and_o manifest_a as_o any_o outward_a or_o bodily_a thing_n in_o the_o earth_n can_v be_v to_o the_o outward_a eye_n of_o the_o body_n in_o respect_n therefore_o that_o this_o eye_n be_v so_o pierce_a and_o that_o he_o cast_v his_o eye_n only_o upon_o our_o heart_n it_o behoove_v we_o to_o try_v our_o heart_n three_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o the_o conscience_n there_o be_v no_o monarch_n on_o earth_n that_o have_v any_o sovereignty_n or_o lordship_n over_o the_o conscience_n only_o the_o god_n of_o heaven_n only_a christ_n jesus_n king_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v lord_n of_o the_o conscience_n he_o have_v power_n only_o to_o save_v and_o lose_v therefore_o when_o thou_o come_v to_o this_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n table_n thou_o ought_v careful_o to_o look_v unto_o thy_o conscience_n to_o try_v and_o examine_v the_o state_n of_o it_o last_o of_o all_o which_o be_v a_o chief_a reason_n it_o behoove_v thou_o to_o prove_v thy_o conscience_n because_o the_o welfare_n and_o health_n of_o thy_o soul_n depend_v upon_o thy_o conscience_n if_o thy_o conscience_n that_o be_v within_o thy_o soul_n be_v well_o if_o it_o be_v at_o peace_n and_o rest_n thy_o soul_n be_v well_o if_o thy_o conscience_n be_v in_o a_o good_a estate_n thy_o soul_n must_v needs_o be_v in_o a_o good_a estate_n if_o thy_o conscience_n be_v in_o good_a health_n of_o necessity_n thy_o soul_n must_v be_v in_o good_a health_n for_o the_o good_a health_n and_o happiness_n of_o the_o soul_n depend_v upon_o a_o good_a conscience_n therefore_o it_o concern_v every_o one_o of_o you_o to_o try_v well_o your_o conscience_n there_o be_v never_o any_o law_n make_v or_o devise_v that_o forbid_v we_o to_o have_v a_o care_n of_o our_o health_n it_o be_v lawful_a for_o we_o to_o seek_v such_o thing_n as_o may_v procure_v and_o preserve_v it_o but_o the_o health_n of_o thy_o soul_n stand_v in_o the_o health_n of_o thy_o conscience_n and_o in_o preserve_v thereof_o therefore_o by_o all_o law_n thou_o ought_v to_o attend_v thy_o conscience_n if_o thou_o keep_v thy_o conscience_n well_o thy_o soul_n be_v in_o health_n and_o if_o thy_o soul_n be_v in_o health_n let_v trouble_n come_v what_o will_v upon_o thy_o body_n thou_o will_v endure_v they_o all_o but_o if_o thy_o soul_n

be_v at_o rest_n and_o in_o good_a health_n that_o trouble_n can_v not_o happen_v unto_o thy_o body_n but_o the_o strength_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n will_v bear_v it_o out_o then_o have_v you_o

because_o it_o be_v a_o fruitless_a thing_n to_o tell_v you_o that_o health_n be_v necessary_a conscience_n and_o not_o to_o show_v the_o way_n how_o this_o health_n may_v be_v obtain_v and_o
