the_o prediction_n of_o his_o minister_n as_o extraordinary_o the_o prophet_n from_o vision_n or_o revelation_n do_v foretell_v the_o judgement_n to_o ensue_v and_o ordinary_o wrath_n may_v be_v

with_o his_o servant_n and_o he_o will_v make_v good_a their_o righteous_a threaten_n second_o the_o sign_n in_o heaven_n or_o earth_n or_o sea_n prodigious_a sight_n or_o sign_n in_o the_o sun_n or_o

the_o sudden_a and_o common_a death_n of_o the_o best_a man_n these_o all_o foretell_v evil_a to_o come_v as_o we_o may_v know_v fire_n so_o may_v we_o know_v god_n anger_n we_o know_v fire_n either_o by_o the_o report_n of_o man_n worthy_a to_o be_v credit_v or_o by_o the_o smoke_n or_o by_o the_o flame_n beginning_n to_o break_v out_o and_o so_o may_v discern_v god_n wrath_n either_o by_o the_o

already_o begin_v and_o thus_o of_o the_o sign_n of_o god_n public_a anger_n anger_n the_o sign_n of_o god_n anger_n to_o a_o particular_a man_n be_v such_o as_o these_o fist_n if_o a_o man_n have_v

of_o the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o mean_n it_o be_v a_o plain_a sign_n of_o god_n anger_n when_o a_o man_n hear_v the_o word_n powerful_o preach_v and_o read_v and_o pray_v without_o all_o affection_n or_o life_n and_o be_v so_o constant_o for_o if_o the_o lord_n be_v please_v he_o will_v show_v himself_o in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o mean_n of_o communion_n with_o he_o four_o a_o man_n may_v gather_v something_o by_o his_o cross_n for_o if_o he_o find_v a●sting_v in_o they_o that_o god_n fight_v against_o he_o in_o they_o so_o as_o they_o pierce_v and_o vex_v and_o

be_v in_o all_o likelihood_n not_o
4._o last_o nothing_o but_o the_o will_n of_o god_n bind_v conscience_n the_o apostle_n of_o purpose_n lay_v the_o foundation_n in_o the_o preface_n concern_v the_o knowledge_n of_o and_o rest_v
