of_o the_o saint_n and_o therefore_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v within_o we_o it_o be_v a_o inward_a kingdom_n that_o be_v the_o three_o thing_n wherein_o

of_o christ_n in_o the_o government_n of_o his_o church_n and_o the_o law_n that_o be_v for_o the_o government_n of_o the_o world_n it_o will_v be_v of_o very_o great_a use_n for_o you_o to_o know_v the_o lord_n in_o his_o providential_a kingdom_n appoint_v magistrate_n to_o govern_v here_o in_o the_o world_n in_o his_o room_n he_o leave_v they_o to_o make_v law_n according_a to_o the_o general_a

to_o make_v new_a law_n according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o their_o own_o prudence_n what_o they_o conceive_v to_o be_v fit_a in_o way_n of_o prudence_n no_o but_o they_o must_v fetch_v the_o law_n out_o of_o his_o word_n and_o impose_v none_o but_o the_o same_o law_n that_o be_v in_o his_o word_n they_o must_v have_v a_o scriptum_n est_fw-la it_o be_v write_v here_o be_v these_o and_o these_o

his_o church_n now_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o church_n because_o they_o be_v a_o society_n of_o man_n they_o have_v some_o thing_n natural_a and_o some_o thing_n civil_a among_o they_o so_o far_o

only_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o word_n and_o there_o be_v not_o that_o liberty_n of_o make_v new_a law_n in_o the_o church_n as_o there_o be_v of_o make_v new_a law_n in_o the_o commonwealth_n and_o state_n and_o that_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o this_o world_n that_o be_v a_o four_o the_o law_n be_v different_a the_o

law_n bind_v conscience_n in_o the_o other_o they_o do_v not_o they_o do_v not_o bind_v conscience_n any_o further_a than_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v require_v bind_v except_o it_o be_v in_o case_n of_o scandal_n and_o contempt_n so_o our_o divine_n that_o have_v be_v the_o most_o orthodox_n have_v go_v that_o the_o law_n of_o man_n in_o the_o state_n they_o bind_v not_o

be_v a_o very_a hard_a bondage_n a_o cruel_a yoke_n but_o thus_o if_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v require_v be_v right_a and_o just_a than_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n may_v bind_v conscience_n for_o then_o there_o come_v in_o a_o law_n of_o god_n if_o the_o thing_n be_v just_a and_o right_a that_o be_v require_v or_o however_o if_o i_o know_v nothing_o to_o the_o contrary_a but_o it_o may_v

not_o every_o thing_n that_o man_n require_v but_o now_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v such_o as_o bind_v conscience_n as_o they_o come_v from_o he_o he_o be_v such_o a_o king_n that_o i_o

of_o the_o damn_a in_o hell_n i_o say_v put_v all_o together_o and_o they_o will_v not_o so_o much_o nor_o so_o clear_o discover_v god_n infinite_a hatred_n of_o sin_n as_o what_o we_o find_v in_o the_o gospel_n the_o red_a glass_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v shed_v for_o sin_n do_v discover_v more_o of_o god_n hatred_n against_o it_o than_o all_o the_o torment_n of_o

how_o i_o will_v deal_v with_o he_o who_o be_v your_o surety_n i_o will_v not_o spare_v he_o i_o will_v power_n out_o the_o vial_n of_o my_o wrath_n upon_o he_o to_o the_o last_o drop_n i_o will_v

though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o principal_a end_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v to_o satisfy_v divine_a justice_n but_o there_o be_v another_o end_n that_o god_n aim_v at_o in_o

that_o the_o lord_n have_v enlighten_v you_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n to_o understand_v the_o certainty_n and_o reality_n of_o this_o oh_o then_o let_v your_o conversation_n be_v as_o become_v this_o evangelical_n truth_n quest_n what_o conversation_n do_v become_v this_o answ_n hence_o then_o your_o own_o reason_n can_v but_o make_v a_o consequence_n from_o this_o that_o the_o gospel_n hold_v forth_o hence_o then_o cast_v away_o all_o sin_n as_o a_o abominable_a thing_n from_o you_o what_o have_v i_o to_o do_v any_o more_o with_o idol_n hence_o then_o call_v no_o sin_n little_a which_o so_o much_o provoke_v the_o lord_n indeed_o if_o you_o be_v only_o act_v by_o the_o light_n of_o reason_n reason_n perhaps_o will_v tell_v you_o that_o such_o thing_n be_v but_o little_a and_o small_a and_o you_o need_v make_v no_o such_o great_a matter_n about_o they_o but_o now_o be_v not_o thou_o a_o christian_n a_o follower_n of_o christ_n a_o friend_n to_o the_o gospel_n for_o shame_n call_v no_o sin_n little_a for_o in_o the_o gospel_n you_o see_v the_o infinite_a hatred_n of_o god_n against_o all_o sin_n yea_o there_o be_v more_o evil_a in_o the_o least_o sin_n than_o in_o the_o great_a affliction_n whatsoever_o that_o be_v a_o point_n that_o have_v be_v long_o since_o open_v to_o you_o at_o large_a and_o this_o will_v show_v it_o clear_o there_o be_v more_o evil_a in_o any_o sin_n than_o in_o the_o great_a affliction_n by_o the_o deal_n of_o god_n the_o father_n with_o his_o son_n and_o therefore_o if_o you_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o live_v as_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n rather_o be_v willing_a to_o bear_v any_o affliction_n in_o the_o world_n than_o wilful_o to_o commit_v the_o least_o sin_n be_v these_o two_o in_o the_o balance_n here_o be_v a_o

be_v i_o shall_v be_v deliver_v from_o this_o affliction_n now_o will_v this_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n for_o one_o that_o profess_v that_o he_o do_v believe_v that_o god_n the_o father_n deal_v thus_o with_o his_o son_n that_o have_v sin_n but_o by_o imputation_n upon_o he_o that_o he_o let_v out_o the_o vial_n of_o his_o wrath_n upon_o he_o and_o make_v he_o a_o curse_n for_o sin_n and_o if_o christ_n have_v but_o undertake_v for_o to_o have_v satisfy_v for_o one_o sin_n though_o the_o least_o sin_n he_o must_v have_v die_v for_o it_o for_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n of_o sin_n indefinite_o it_o be_v death_n and_o do_v i_o believe_v this_o and_o yet_o shall_v i_o rather_o choose_v the_o commission_n of_o a_o sin_n than_o the_o bear_n of_o any_o affliction_n oh_o this_o be_v infinite_o unbeseeming_a the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n do_v i_o believe_v this_o and_o be_v it_o real_a unto_o my_o soul_n oh_o let_v i_o then_o manifest_a in_o my_o whole_a

of_o the_o fire_n of_o hell_n let_v i_o discover_v the_o temptation_n to_o sin_n that_o i_o may_v endeavour_v to_o avoid_v all_o temptation_n to_o sin_n because_o god_n have_v give_v such_o a_o testimony_n from_o heaven_n against_o sin_n oh_o it_o be_v a_o loud_a testimony_n indeed_o that_o god_n have_v give_v from_o heaven_n against_o sin_n in_o the_o death_n of_o his_o son_n oh_o then_o let_v my_o conversation_n be_v such_o as_o i_o may_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o i_o be_o afraid_a of_o the_o beginning_n of_o sin_n of_o the_o first_o whisper_v and_o motion_n to_o sin_n oh_o set_v i_o not_o stand_v dandle_v of_o sin_n in_o my_o thought_n and_o roll_n it_o as_o a_o sweet_a morsel_n under_o my_o tongue_n let_v i_o not_o entertain_v it_o in_o my_o affection_n in_o the_o least_o
