grace_n and_o hope_n and_o this_o very_a often_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o scoffer_n who_o have_v debauch_v and_o jest_v away_o all_o feel_n of_o these_o interest_n yea_o 2._o there_o be_v great_a cause_n to_o think_v that_o he_o commit_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n or_o a_o sin_n that_o be_v very_o near_o it_o for_o that_o consist_v in_o the_o disbelief_n and_o contempt_n of_o the_o great_a and_o last_o testimony_n that_o be_v give_v by_o the_o spirit_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o christianity_n and_o that_o i_o may_v not_o seem_v to_o speak_v this_o without_o ground_n let_v we_o look_v into_o the_o place_n where_o the_o first_o and_o full_a account_n of_o this_o sin_n be_v we_o have_v it_o matth._n 12._o our_o saviour_n have_v cure_v one_o that_o be_v

ver_fw-la 24._o christ_n show_v the_o absurdity_n and_o falsehood_n of_o their_o suggestion_n argue_v that_o then_o satan_n will_v be_v divide_v against_o himself_o and_o his_o kingdom_n so_o divide_v can_v not_o stand_v ver_fw-la 25_o 26._o and_o have_v reason_v against_o that_o malicious_a account_n of_o his_o miracle_n he_o infer_v from_o the_o contrary_a and_o true_a way_n of_o his_o perform_v it_o ver_fw-la 28._o if_o i_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n cast_v out_o devil_n then_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n come_v unto_o you_o viz._n then_o i_o that_o have_v do_v this_o be_o the_o

you_o all_o manner_n of_o sin_n and_o blasphemy_n shall_v be_v forgive_v unto_o man_n but_o the_o blasphemy_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v not_o be_v forgive_v unto_o man_n where_o by_o blasphemy_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n must_v be_v understand_v according_a to_o the_o context_n that_o of_o impute_v the_o operation_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o miracle_n to_o the_o devil_n which_o be_v therefore_o so_o heinous_a because_o it_o be_v a_o expression_n of_o the_o great_a contempt_n of_o it_o and_o a_o bar_n against_o the_o be_v persuade_v by_o it_o now_o to_o apply_v this_o though_o the_o scoffer_n do_v not_o impute_v the_o spirit_n testimony_n in_o miracle_n to_o the_o devil_n yet_o that_o be_v not_o because_o he_o have_v a_o great_a esteem_n of_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o because_o he_o have_v less_o belief_n of_o the_o existence_n of_o devil_n yea_o he_o will_v not_o allow_v so_o much_o as_o the_o pharisee_n do_v that_o any_o such_o thing_n be_v do_v but_o suppose_v all_o to_o have_v be_v imposture_n and_o delusion_n in_o the_o author_n or_o cunning_o devise_v fable_n in_o the_o relator_n which_o be_v a_o contempt_n put_v upon_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n equal_a to_o that_o of_o ascribe_v they_o to_o the_o devil_n and_o do_v as_o effectual_o and_o incurable_o strike_v up_o the_o ground_n of_o faith_n as_o that_o so_o that_o in_o substance_n the_o sin_n of_o the_o scoffer_n be_v the_o same_o with_o that_o describe_v in_o the_o text_n though_o differ_v in_o circumstance_n and_o form_n yea_o it_o be_v the_o sin_n with_o aggravation_n since_o they_o do_v not_o bare_o speak_v against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o his_o operation_n but_o deride_v they_o a_o expression_n of_o the_o great_a contempt_n possible_a and_o when_o man_n be_v come_v thus_o far_o to_o despise_v the_o great_a testimony_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o ground_n of_o faith_n after_o it_o have_v be_v sufficient_o propound_v to_o they_o and_o entertain_v by_o they_o in_o favour_n of_o their_o lust_n we_o have_v cause_n to_o think_v their_o infidelity_n be_v incurable_a and_o consequent_o unpardonable_a for_o so_o the_o apostle_n have_v declare_v plain_o heb._n 6._o 4_o 5_o 6._o for_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o those_o who_o be_v once_o enlighten_v and_o have_v taste_v of_o the_o heavenly_a gift_n and_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n viz._n in_o baptism_n and_o have_v taste_v the_o good_a word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o power_n of_o the_o world_n to_o come_v all_o which_o be_v expression_n of_o the_o visible_o own_v christianity_n and_o partake_v in_o the_o duty_n and_o privilege_n of_o it_o if_o they_o shall_v fall_v away_o to_o renew_v they_o again_o to_o repentance_n and_o they_o that_o be_v arrive_v at_o the_o impudent_a height_n of_o deride_v all_o this_o be_v fall_v away_o with_o a_o witness_n and_o therefore_o i_o think_v we_o may_v conclude_v safe_o from_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o they_o be_v incurable_a and_o unpardonable_a and_o from_o this_o and_o the_o discourse_n before_o that_o it_o be_v sad_o probable_a they_o have_v commit_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n this_o it_o be_v like_a may_v seem_v very_o severe_a doctrine_n but_o i_o can_v help_v that_o if_o it_o be_v true_a i_o be_o not_o to_o be_v blame_v for_o the_o severity_n of_o it_o and_o i_o be_o sure_a the_o book_n of_o homily_n declare_v more_o positive_o in_o the_o case_n than_o i_o have_v do_v for_o speak_v in_o the_o ten_o homily_n of_o the_o scorner_n of_o godliness_n and_o religion_n who_o be_v there_o describe_v the_o author_n say_v of_o they_o i_o think_v i_o may_v without_o danger_n of_o god_n judgement_n pronounce_v that_o never_o any_o yet_o be_v convert_v unto_o god_n by_o repentance_n but_o continue_v still_o in_o their_o abominable_a wickedness_n heap_v up_o to_o themselves_o damnation_n against_o the_o day_n of_o god_n inevitable_a judgement_n i_o come_v now_o iv._o to_o the_o application_n which_o shall_v be_v 1._o earnest_o to_o dehort_v all_o that_o have_v the_o least_o sense_n of_o virtue_n or_o reason_n from_o scoff_v at_o religion_n or_o at_o man_n for_o make_v profession_n of_o it_o and_o then_o 2._o i_o shall_v conclude_v with_o some_o very_a brief_a direction_n and_o rule_n of_o caution_n to_o secure_v we_o from_o the_o danger_n of_o this_o sin_n concern_v the_o first_o i_o consider_v that_o the_o scoffer_n with_o who_o i_o be_o further_a to_o treat_v be_v of_o two_o sort_n 1._o the_o desperate_a who_o have_v debauch_v themselves_o into_o downright_a infidelity_n and_o 2._o the_o fashionable_a one_o as_o i_o crave_v leave_n for_o distinction_n to_o call_v they_o who_o do_v not_o scoff_n at_o religion_n out_o of_o enmity_n or_o malice_n but_o out_o of_o modishness_n and_o compliance_n and_o it_o may_v be_v out_o of_o design_n to_o be_v account_v wit_n for_o so_o do_v i_o shall_v deal_v first_o with_o the_o former_a sort_n and_o in_o treat_v with_o they_o shall_v use_v none_o of_o the_o acknowledgement_n of_o religion_n but_o from_o plain_a unassisted_a reason_n shall_v show_v the_o extreme_a vanity_n and_o madness_n of_o their_o practice_n and_o i_o will_v entreat_v they_o to_o think_v of_o the_o follow_a thing_n 2._o be_v religion_n true_a as_o we_o know_v or_o false_a as_o they_o vain_o imagine_v their_o scoff_v at_o it_o be_v exceed_o absurd_a every_o faculty_n be_v to_o be_v apply_v to_o its_o proper_a object_n to_o employ_v and_o of_o they_o about_o other_o that_o belong_v not_o to_o they_o be_v foolish_a and_o unnatural_a now_o god_n have_v bestow_v upon_o we_o reason_n and_o understanding_n to_o judge_v and_o discourse_n about_o thing_n that_o be_v serious_a and_o the_o faculty_n of_o laughter_n and_o derision_n to_o be_v exercise_v upon_o thing_n that_o be_v vain_a to_o employ_v the_o former_a and_o discourse_v grave_o about_o ludicrous_a trifle_a matter_n be_v ridiculous_a and_o it_o be_v equal_o absurd_a to_o be_v sportive_a about_o affair_n that_o be_v serious_a now_o whether_o religion_n be_v true_a or_o not_o it_o be_v a_o serious_a thing_n if_o true_a the_o great_a interest_n of_o this_o world_n and_o another_o be_v include_v and_o concern_v in_o it_o or_o if_o it_o be_v otherwise_o it_o must_v yet_o be_v grant_v that_o it_o have_v much_o agreeableness_n with_o the_o reason_n and_o most_o serious_a faculty_n of_o mankind_n and_o our_o great_a and_o most_o important_a concern_v in_o this_o life_n viz._n the_o main_a affair_n of_o the_o government_n of_o the_o world_n be_v bind_v up_o with_o it_o and_o have_v relation_n to_o it_o so_o that_o whether_o true_a or_o false_a it_o be_v no_o matter_n of_o sport_n but_o subject_a for_o our_o most_o serious_a consideration_n and_o discourse_n and_o from_o this_o last_o hint_n about_o government_n i_o mind_v the_o scoffer_n 2._o that_o his_o practice_n tend_v to_o the_o dissolution_n of_o humane_a society_n and_o the_o turn_n of_o mankind_n into_o the_o condition_n of_o wild_a nature_n and_o if_o it_o shall_v
