these_o but_o word_n of_o course_n if_o thy_o heart_n believe_v this_o doctrine_n deceive_v not_o thyself_o by_o secure_a presumption_n mark_v what_o the_o apostle_n add_v and_o such_o be_v some_o of_o you_o but_o you_o be_v wash_v you_o be_v sanctify_v you_o be_v justify_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o our_o god_n he_o do_v not_o say_v and_o such_o be_v some_o of_o you_o and_o yet_o you_o be_v justify_v but_o such_o be_v some_o of_o you_o give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o such_o sin_n can_v stand_v with_o the_o grace_n of_o justification_n and_o sanctification_n of_o the_o spirit_n i_o but_o yet_o such_o a_o person_n may_v be_v elect_a say_v one_o we_o do_v not_o now_o dispute_v what_o he_o may_v be_v or_o what_o god_n purpose_n be_v to_o work_v in_o he_o hereafter_o but_o this_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o teach_v and_o the_o people_n believe_v that_o man_n so_o long_o as_o they_o continue_v in_o such_o sin_n be_v not_o in_o the_o state_n of_o salvation_n and_o if_o they_o die_v without_o repentance_n they_o be_v certain_o damn_v neither_o must_v man_n deceive_v themselves_o with_o a_o conceit_n of_o hide_a grace_n and_o presence_n of_o the_o spirit_n during_o the_o continuance_n of_o such_o sin_n for_o these_o sin_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v so_o quench_v the_o divine_a motion_n and_o so_o pollute_v the_o soul_n that_o saint_n john_n speak_v of_o one_o of_o such_o sin_n affirm_v flat_o 3.15_o 1_o joh._n 3.15_o we_o know_v that_o no_o manslay_a have_v eternal_a life_n abide_v in_o he_o he_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o a_o manslay_a repent_v may_v have_v eternal_a life_n but_o he_o conclude_v against_o this_o fraud_n of_o presumption_n maintain_v that_o such_o a_o one_o during_o his_o sin_n without_o repentance_n have_v not_o eternal_a life_n abide_v in_o he_o but_o by_o his_o sin_n he_o have_v lose_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o the_o comfort_n of_o salvation_n by_o christ_n until_o he_o be_v again_o renew_v by_o repentance_n and_o therefore_o man_n that_o continue_v in_o such_o sin_n ought_v to_o be_v so_o far_o from_o believe_v that_o they_o in_o god_n favour_n be_v safe_a they_o that_o be_v bind_v to_o believe_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o they_o shall_v never_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n i_o but_o say_v this_o deceiver_n do_v not_o the_o scripture_n say_v bless_a be_v the_o man_n who_o unrighteousness_n be_v forgive_v 32.1_o psal_n 32.1_o and_o who_o sin_n be_v cover_v if_o cover_v say_v he_o than_o continuance_n in_o sin_n can_v hurt_v a_o believer_n but_o the_o godly_a which_o know_v the_o comfortable_a sense_n of_o these_o word_n admit_v not_o this_o deceiver_n gloss_n all_o our_o former_a sin_n by_o repentance_n and_o faith_n in_o christ_n be_v forgive_v and_o so_o cover_v that_o they_o shall_v not_o appear_v to_o our_o confusion_n but_o then_o we_o know_v also_o that_o repentance_n import_v not_o only_o a_o verbal_a confession_n and_o acknowledgement_n that_o we_o sin_n but_o also_o a_o real_a and_o true_a forsake_v of_o such_o sin_n as_o be_v commit_v against_o conscience_n the_o grace_n of_o christ_n then_o cover_v our_o infirmity_n as_o a_o cloth_n to_o hide_v they_o because_o they_o continue_v so_o long_o as_o we_o live_v but_o it_o cover_v our_o impiety_n &_o crime_n as_o a_o plaster_n that_o draw_v out_o the_o filth_n and_o heal_v the_o sore_a we_o must_v not_o think_v that_o the_o name_n and_o merit_n of_o christ_n be_v a_o cloak_n for_o villainy_n or_o a_o covert_n for_o iniquity_n but_o as_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n our_o weakness_n be_v cover_v so_o our_o wickedness_n be_v cure_v so_o that_o a_o wicked_a man_n and_o a_o christian_a be_v direct_o contrary_a 3._o
