his_o will_n which_o he_o deny_v to_o many_o prophet_n and_o righteous_a man_n who_o desire_v to_o see_v the_o thing_n which_o we_o see_v but_o can_v not_o see_v they_o and_o to_o hear_v the_o thing_n

great_a advantage_n and_o more_o powerful_a argument_n to_o be_v good_a than_o ever_o they_o have_v and_o as_o we_o ought_v thankful_o to_o acknowledge_v these_o bless_a advantage_n so_o ought_v we_o likewise_o with_o the_o great_a care_n and_o diligence_n to_o improve_v they_o and_o now_o how_o do_v the_o serious_a consideration_n of_o this_o condemn_v all_o impenitent_a sinner_n under_o the_o gospel_n who_o will_v not_o be_v reclaim_v from_o their_o sin_n and_o persuade_v to_o goodness_n by_o all_o that_o god_n can_v do_v by_o the_o most_o plain_a declaration_n of_o his_o will_n to_o the_o

terror_n of_o the_o great_a day_n and_o the_o vengeance_n of_o eternal_a fire_n by_o the_o wonderful_a and_o amaze_a condescension_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n appear_v in_o our_o nature_n by_o his_o

in_o his_o blood_n and_o by_o the_o glorious_a hope_n of_o eternal_a life_n what_o can_v god_n have_v do_v more_o for_o we_o than_o he_o have_v do_v what_o great_a concernment_n can_v he_o show_v for_o our_o salvation_n than_o to_o send_v his_o own_o son_n his_o only_a son_n to_o seek_v and_o save_v we_o and_o what_o great_a demonstration_n can_v he_o give_v of_o his_o love_n to_o we_o than_o to_o give_v the_o son_n of_o his_o love_n to_o die_v for_o we_o this_o be_v the_o last_o effort_n that_o the_o divine_a mercy_n and_o goodness_n will_v make_v upon_o mankind_n so_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o epistle_n chap._n 1.1_o that_o god_n who_o at_o sundry_a time_n and_o in_o divers_a manner_n speak_v in_o time_n pass_v unto_o the_o father_n by_o the_o prophet_n have_v in_o these_o last_o day_n speak_v to_o we_o by_o his_o son_n and_o if_o we_o will_v not_o hear_v he_o he_o will_v speak_v no_o more_o after_o this_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v expect_v that_o he_o shall_v make_v any_o far_a attempt_n for_o our_o recovery_n he_o can_v send_v no_o great_a and_o dear_a person_n to_o we_o than_o his_o own_o son_n if_o we_o despise_v he_o who_o will_v we_o reverence_n if_o we_o reject_v he_o and_o the_o great_a salvation_n which_o he_o bring_v and_o offer_v to_o we_o we_o have_v all_o the_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n to_o believe_v that_o our_o case_n be_v desperate_a and_o that_o we_o shall_v die_v in_o our_o sin_n this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n of_o the_o jew_n that_o they_o do_v not_o receive_v and_o believe_v on_o he_o who_o god_n have_v send_v and_o if_o we_o who_o profess_v to_o believe_v on_o he_o and_o to_o receive_v his_o doctrine_n be_v find_v disobedient_a to_o it_o in_o our_o life_n we_o have_v reason_n to_o fear_v that_o our_o condemnation_n shall_v be_v far_o heavy_a than_o they_o for_o since_o the_o appearance_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n against_o all_o ungodliness_n and_o unrighteousness_n of_o man_n especial_o against_o those_o who_o detain_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n in_o unrighteousness_n that_o be_v against_o those_o who_o entertain_v the_o light_n of_o god_n truth_n in_o their_o mind_n but_o do_v not_o suffer_v it_o to_o have_v its_o proper_a effect_n and_o influence_n upon_o their_o heart_n and_o life_n and_o make_v that_o a_o prisoner_n which_o will_v make_v they_o free_a so_o our_o lord_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o truth_n shall_v make_v we_o free_a but_o if_o after_o we_o have_v receive_v the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n we_o be_v still_o the_o servant_n of_o sin_n our_o condemnation_n be_v much_o worse_o than_o if_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v never_o come_v for_o the_o christian_a religion_n have_v do_v nothing_o if_o it_o do_v not_o take_v man_n off_o from_o their_o sin_n and_o teach_v they_o to_o live_v well_o especial_o at_o this_o time_n when_o we_o be_v celebrate_v the_o come_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n we_o shall_v take_v great_a heed_n that_o we_o be_v not_o find_v guilty_a of_o any_o impiety_n and_o wickedness_n because_o this_o be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o the_o main_a design_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n which_o bring_v salvation_n and_o have_v appear_v to_o all_o man_n and_o the_o appearance_n whereof_o we_o do_v at_o this_o time_n commemorate_v for_o that_o teach_v man_n to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o live_v sober_o and_o righteous_o and_o godly_o in_o this_o present_a world_n and_o we_o can_v gratify_v the_o devil_n more_o than_o by_o show_v ourselves_o more_o diligent_a than_o ordinary_a to_o uphold_v his_o work_n at_o this_o very_a time_n when_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v on_o purpose_n to_o dissolve_v they_o we_o can_v possible_o choose_v a_o worse_a a_o more_o improper_a season_n to_o sin_n in_o than_o when_o we_o be_v celebrate_v the_o birth_n of_o the_o bless_a jesus_n who_o come_v to_o save_v we_o from_o our_o sin_n this_o be_v as_o if_o a_o sick_a man_n for_o joy_n that_o a_o famous_a physician_n be_v come_v to_o his_o house_n shall_v run_v into_o all_o manner_n of_o excess_n and_o so_o do_v all_o he_o can_v to_o inflame_v his_o disease_n and_o make_v his_o case_n desperate_a not_o but_o that_o our_o inward_a joy_n may_v lawful_o be_v accompany_v with_o all_o outward_a innocent_a expression_n of_o it_o but_o we_o can_v be_v true_o thankful_a if_o we_o allow_v ourselves_o at_o this_o time_n in_o any_o thing_n contrary_a to_o the_o purity_n and_o sobriety_n of_o the_o gospel_n it_o be_v matter_n of_o just_a and_o sad_a complaint_n be_v of_o great_a scandal_n to_o our_o saviour_n and_o his_o holy_a religion_n that_o such_o irregular_a and_o extravagant_a thing_n be_v at_o this_o time_n common_o cone_n by_o many_o who_o call_v themselves_o christian_n and_o do_v under_o a_o pretence_n of_o do_v honour_n to_o the_o memory_n of_o christ_n birth_n as_o if_o because_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v at_o this_o time_n make_v man_n it_o be_v fit_a for_o man_n to_o make_v themselves_o beast_n if_o we_o will_v honour_v he_o indeed_o we_o must_v take_v care_n that_o our_o joy_n do_v not_o degenerate_a into_o sin_n and_o sensuality_n and_o that_o we_o do_v not_o express_v it_o by_o lewdness_n and_o luxury_n by_o intemperance_n and_o excess_n by_o prodigal_a game_n and_o profuse_a waste_n of_o our_o estate_n as_o the_o manner_n of_o some_o be_v as_o if_o we_o intend_v literal_o to_o requite_v our_o saviour_n who_o be_v rich_a for_o our_o sake_n become_v poor_a this_o be_v a_o way_n of_o part_v with_o house_n and_o land_n and_o become_v poor_a for_o his_o sake_n for_o which_o he_o will_v never_o thank_v nor_o reward_v we_o this_o be_v not_o to_o commemorate_v the_o come_v of_o our_o saviour_n but_o to_o contradict_v it_o and_o open_o to_o declare_v that_o we_o will_v uphold_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n in_o despite_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o come_v to_o destroy_v they_o it_o be_v for_o all_o the_o world_n like_o that_o lewd_a and_o senseless_a piece_n of_o loyalty_n too_o much_o in_o fashion_n some_o year_n ago_o of_o be_v drink_v for_o the_o king_n good_a god_n that_o ever_o it_o shall_v pass_v for_o a_o piece_n of_o religion_n among_o christian_n to_o run_v into_o all_o manner_n of_o excess_n for_o twelve_o day_n together_o in_o honour_n of_o our_o saviour_n a_o great_a aggravation_n of_o sin_n can_v easy_o be_v imagine_v than_o to_o abuse_v the_o memory_n of_o the_o great_a blessing_n that_o ever_o be_v christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o take_v away_o sin_n into_o a_o opportunity_n of_o commit_v it_o this_o be_v to_o represent_v the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o a_o patron_n of_o sin_n and_o licentiousness_n and_o to_o treat_v he_o more_o contumelious_o than_o the_o jew_n do_v who_o bow_v the_o knee_n to_o he_o and_o mock_v he_o and_o call_v

be_v nor_o any_o fear_n of_o become_v less_o and_o all_o temptation_n be_v found_v either_o in_o hope_n or_o fear_n and_o where_o neither_o of_o these_o can_v have_v any_o place_n there_o can_v be_v no_o occasion_n no_o possible_a motive_n or_o temptation_n to_o evil_a for_o to_o be_v evil_a and_o to_o do_v evil_a be_v always_o a_o effect_n of_o weakness_n and_o want_n of_o power_n the_o sum_n of_o what_o i_o have_v say_v upon_o this_o argument_n and_o the_o design_n indeed_o of_o it_o be_v to_o show_v that_o the_o great_a power_n and_o authority_n any_o one_o have_v the_o less_o liberty_n he_o have_v to_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v bad_a and_o i_o have_v be_v the_o large_a upon_o this_o because_o i_o will_v fain_o imprint_v upon_o the_o mind_n of_o person_n who_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n have_v invest_v with_o great_a power_n and_o authority_n that_o as_o they_o have_v great_a opportunity_n of_o do_v more_o good_a than_o other_o so_o they_o have_v great_a reason_n and_o more_o advantage_n of_o do_v it_o and_o be_v more_o inexcusable_a if_o they_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v bad_a not_o only_o because_o their_o action_n be_v of_o a_o more_o public_a influence_n and_o observation_n but_o because_o their_o temptation_n to_o evil_a how_o great_a soever_o they_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v be_v in_o truth_n and_o reality_n much_o less_o than_o other_o man_n happy_a be_v those_o prince_n that_o wise_o consider_v this_o and_o make_v their_o power_n and_o authority_n over_o other_o a_o argument_n to_o be_v so_o much_o better_a themselves_o and_o to_o do_v so_o much_o more_o good_a to_o other_o and_o because_o they_o be_v less_o subject_n to_o the_o coercive_a power_n of_o law_n do_v for_o that_o reason_n think_v themselves_o so_o much_o the_o more_o oblige_v to_o be_v a_o law_n to_o themselves_o bless_a be_v god_n for_o the_o happiness_n which_o we_o enjoy_v in_o this_o respect_n and_o let_v we_o earnest_o beseech_v he_o that_o he_o will_v be_v please_v to_o bestow_v such_o a_o plentiful_a measure_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o holy_a spirit_n on_o our_o most_o gracious_a king_n and_o queen_n as_o may_v effectual_o both_o engage_v and_o enable_v they_o to_o use_v their_o power_n to_o the_o best_a purpose_n for_o the_o public_a good_a and_o thus_o i_o have_v brief_o go_v over_o and_o explain_v to_o you_o the_o several_a particular_n in_o the_o text_n the_o duty_n of_o prayer_n here_o enjoin_v for_o who_o we_o be_v to_o pray_v in_o general_a for_o all_o man_n and_o for_o who_o more_o especial_o and_o in_o the_o first_o place_n for_o king_n and_o all_o that_o be_v in_o authority_n and_o upon_o what_o consideration_n we_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o they_o and_o to_o praise_n god_n in_o their_o behalf_n because_o of_o the_o great_a benefit_n we_o receive_v by_o they_o and_o because_o both_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o danger_n and_o difficulty_n of_o their_o condition_n they_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o our_o prayer_n above_o other_o man_n beside_o that_o in_o pray_v for_o their_o welfare_n and_o prosperity_n we_o pray_v for_o our_o own_o peace_n and_o happiness_n and_o now_o to_o apply_v this_o to_o ourselves_o and_o to_o the_o occasion_n of_o this_o day_n by_o all_o that_o have_v be_v say_v we_o can_v but_o be_v convince_v what_o cause_n we_o have_v to_o bless_v god_n for_o that_o happy_a government_n which_o we_o live_v under_o that_o excellent_a constitution_n under_o the_o gentle_a influence_n whereof_o we_o enjoy_v more_o liberty_n more_o plenty_n and_o more_o security_n from_o all_o manner_n of_o injury_n and_o oppression_n than_o any_o nation_n this_o day_n on_o the_o face_n of_o the_o earth_n therefore_o with_o what_o thankfulness_n shall_v we_o this_o day_n commemorate_v the_o happy_a restauration_n of_o this_o government_n to_o we_o after_o the_o miserable_a distraction_n and_o confusion_n of_o twenty_o year_n by_o the_o restauration_n and_o return_n of_o our_o banish_a sovereign_n in_o so_o peaceable_a and_o yet_o so_o wonderful_a a_o manner_n that_o a_o remembrance_n of_o it_o even_o at_o this_o distance_n be_v almost_o still_a matter_n of_o amazement_n to_o we_o bless_a be_v the_o lord_n god_n of_o israel_n who_o alone_o do_v wondrous_a thing_n and_o with_o our_o joyful_a praise_n let_v we_o join_v our_o most_o devout_a and_o fervent_a prayer_n to_o almighty_a god_n for_o the_o king_n be_v and_o queen_n majesty_n and_o for_o all_o that_o be_v in_o authority_n and_o i_o may_v true_o say_v that_o there_o be_v hardly_o ever_o great_a reason_n and_o occasion_n for_o it_o both_o from_o our_o distraction_n at_o home_n and_o our_o danger_n from_o abroad_o never_o be_v there_o great_a need_n of_o our_o earnest_a supplication_n and_o prayer_n than_o at_o this_o time_n when_o our_o army_n and_o fleet_n be_v in_o motion_n and_o when_o god_n seem_v already_o to_o have_v give_v we_o some_o earnest_n of_o good_a success_n bless_v be_v his_o great_a and_o glorious_a name_n we_o have_v indeed_o a_o great_a army_n and_o a_o more_o powerful_a fleet_n than_o ever_o this_o nation_n send_v forth_o but_o unless_o god_n be_v on_o our_o side_n and_o favour_v our_o cause_n in_o vain_a be_v all_o our_o preparation_n for_o whenever_o his_o providence_n be_v please_v to_o interpose_v by_o strength_n shall_v no_o man_n prevail_v have_v we_o not_o reason_n then_o to_o cry_v mighty_o unto_o god_n when_o the_o only_a strength_n of_o the_o nation_n be_v at_o stake_n when_o our_o sin_n and_o provocation_n be_v so_o many_o and_o great_a and_o there_o lie_v so_o heavy_a a_o poal_n of_o
