and_o reform_v thy_o way_n and_o bless_v be_v god_n for_o what_o he_o have_v make_v thou_o able_a to_o do_v but_o this_o i_o must_v tell_v thou_o if_o thy_o repentance_n and_o reformation_n be_v all_o thy_o hope_n and_o thou_o rely_a upon_o they_o as_o the_o jew_n do_v upon_o their_o legal_a righteousness_n thy_o soul_n and_o all_o will_v sink_v everlasting_o if_o thou_o look_v no_o further_o for_o help_n for_o all_o these_o can_v procure_v thy_o acceptance_n before_o god_n in_o that_o great_a day_n of_o account_n nor_o give_v any_o satisfaction_n to_o god_n justice_n now_o the_o weakness_n of_o all_o these_o privilege_n and_o duty_n may_v appear_v in_o five_o particular_n first_o thou_o can_v not_o do_v that_o which_o god_n require_v of_o thou_o 8.14_o rom._n 8.14_o in_o all_o this_o that_o thou_o so_o much_o brag_v of_o thou_o have_v a_o hard_a heart_n and_o can_v not_o repent_v if_o thou_o can_v do_v what_o god_n require_v of_o thou_o then_o why_o do_v thou_o not_o break_v that_o hard_a heart_n of_o thou_o it_o be_v a_o heart_n that_o can_v repent_v the_o saint_n of_o god_n find_v this_o though_o they_o see_v their_o sin_n yet_o their_o heart_n will_v not_o break_v thou_o be_v as_o able_a to_o rend_v the_o rock_n in_o piece_n as_o to_o break_v thy_o hard_a heart_n the_o good_a that_o i_o will_v do_v say_v saint_n paul_n 2.5_o rom._n 2.5_o i_o can_v do_v and_o the_o evil_a that_o i_o will_v not_o do_v that_o i_o do_v the_o church_n complain_v of_o it_o and_o say_v why_o be_v our_o heart_n harden_v from_o thy_o fear_n therefore_o god_n may_v just_o take_v exception_n against_o thou_o second_o thou_o be_v not_o many_o time_n careful_a to_o do_v what_o thou_o can_v sometime_o thou_o let_v pass_v opportunity_n and_o if_o thou_o take_v the_o occasion_n it_o be_v marvellous_a slight_o and_o hoverly_o though_o god_n have_v put_v power_n and_o ability_n into_o thy_o heart_n to_o perform_v holy_a duty_n so_o that_o thou_o see_v the_o occasion_n yet_o thou_o slight_a they_o over_o most_o shameful_o 3.2_o jam._n 3.2_o in_o many_o thing_n we_o sin_v all_o say_v the_o apostle_n saint_n james_n and_o the_o prophet_n esay_n say_v 64.7_o esa_n 64.7_o there_o be_v none_o that_o call_v upon_o thy_o name_n neither_o stir_v he_o up_o himself_o to_o take_v hold_n of_o thou_o it_o be_v the_o common_a fault_n of_o the_o wise_a virgin_n they_o all_o slumber_v 25.5_o matth._n 25.5_o this_o befall_v even_o those_o that_o be_v the_o most_o belove_a of_o the_o lord_n three_o do_v what_o thou_o can_v in_o the_o best_a of_o all_o thy_o service_n when_o thou_o come_v to_o the_o high_a pitch_n of_o the_o holiness_n of_o thy_o heart_n and_o to_o the_o most_o fervent_a prayer_n that_o ever_o thou_o do_v make_v and_o the_o most_o break_a heart_n that_o ever_o thou_o have_v and_o the_o most_o exact_a way_n of_o godliness_n i_o say_v in_o the_o very_o best_a of_o all_o thy_o duty_n there_o be_v still_o some_o imperfection_n and_o for_o which_o god_n may_v in_o exact_a rigour_n frown_v upon_o thou_o now_o judge_v this_o can_v that_o service_n save_o thou_o in_o which_o there_o be_v enough_o to_o condemn_v thou_o that_o be_v impossible_a in_o the_o best_a of_o thy_o duty_n there_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v god_n frown_v upon_o thou_o and_o therefore_o the_o priest_n that_o be_v to_o offer_v sacrifice_n 27._o heb._n 7_o 27._o be_v to_o offer_v sacrifice_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o offering_n where_o we_o see_v that_o even_o the_o holy_a service_n that_o ever_o the_o minister_n put_v up_o to_o god_n and_o in_o the_o best_a care_n that_o ever_o he_o express_v he_o have_v need_n to_o offer_v sacrifice_n for_o his_o offering_n and_o so_o it_o be_v in_o all_o your_o service_n you_o little_o think_v that_o god_n may_v condemn_v you_o for_o your_o prayer_n and_o sacrament_n and_o fast_n but_o i_o will_v make_v it_o clear_a to_o you_o for_o this_o be_v a_o common_a rule_n we_o all_o believe_v in_o part_n we_o know_v in_o part_n and_o we_o love_v in_o part_n so_o that_o though_o our_o heart_n be_v renew_v yet_o they_o be_v but_o renew_v in_o part_n there_o be_v some_o hatred_n mix_v with_o our_o love_n some_o unbelief_n with_o our_o faith_n and_o some_o ignorance_n with_o our_o knowledge_n and_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 5.17_o gal._n 5.17_o the_o flesh_n lu_v against_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o spirit_n against_o the_o flesh_n so_o that_o these_o two_o be_v contrary_a the_o one_o to_o the_o other_o there_o be_v so_o much_o corruption_n in_o thou_o so_o that_o when_o thou_o will_v do_v good_a thou_o can_v not_o do_v it_o with_o that_o readiness_n that_o thou_o ought_v thou_o can_v not_o do_v it_o with_o all_o the_o whole_a stream_n of_o thy_o heart_n the_o law_n require_v that_o we_o shall_v love_v the_o lord_n with_o all_o our_o heart_n and_o with_o all_o our_o strength_n so_o that_o we_o have_v no_o hang_n back_o in_o our_o duty_n but_o in_o all_o our_o prayer_n and_o hear_n and_o reading_n there_o be_v flesh_n that_o oppose_v the_o spirit_n and_o corruption_n that_o cross_v the_o work_n of_o grace_n so_o that_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o perform_v any_o service_n as_o god_n do_v require_v of_o we_o how_o backward_o be_v we_o to_o duty_n and_o how_o weary_a in_o duty_n what_o wander_a thought_n what_o privy_a pride_n and_o what_o seek_v of_o ourselves_o have_v we_o in_o they_o you_o know_v nothing_o if_o you_o know_v not_o this_o but_o whether_o you_o know_v it_o or_o no_o it_o be_v so_o there_o be_v much_o corruption_n oppose_v and_o thwart_v the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o you_o have_v need_n pray_v for_o the_o repentance_n of_o your_o repentance_n and_o to_o beg_v the_o pardon_n of_o all_o your_o prayer_n and_o whereas_o you_o think_v that_o you_o will_v repent_v and_o amend_v and_o hear_v and_o pray_v and_o the_o like_a i_o tell_v you_o that_o though_o it_o be_v commendable_a to_o pray_v and_o hear_v yet_o there_o be_v so_o much_o sin_n in_o your_o amendment_n and_o repentance_n and_o duty_n that_o in_o exact_a justice_n god_n may_v curse_v all_o that_o you_o do_v and_o execute_v his_o judgement_n upon_o you_o for_o the_o same_o therefore_o these_o can_v save_v you_o he_o that_o heretofore_o have_v profane_v the_o will_n now_o sanctify_v it_o and_o so_o he_o think_v all_o be_v quit_v but_o i_o tell_v thou_o that_o in_o all_o thy_o sanctification_n of_o the_o same_o thou_o have_v need_n of_o a_o saviour_n four_o be_v it_o grant_v and_o let_v it_o be_v suppose_v which_o i_o confess_v will_v not_o nay_o can_v never_o be_v but_o imagine_v it_o be_v so_o that_o after_o god_n have_v open_v a_o man_n eye_n and_o break_a his_o heart_n he_o shall_v never_o commit_v the_o least_o sin_n in_o all_o the_o world_n and_o never_o have_v any_o fail_n in_o holy_a duty_n nor_o any_o distemper_n in_o his_o soul_n though_o this_o can_v be_v but_o imagine_v it_o be_v so_o that_o he_o do_v never_o sin_n after_o his_o repentance_n yet_o even_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o nature_n which_o he_o bring_v into_o the_o world_n with_o he_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v the_o lord_n take_v the_o advantage_n of_o he_o for_o ever_o and_o to_o cast_v away_o all_o that_o ever_o he_o do_v as_o abominable_a from_o his_o presence_n our_o repentance_n and_o our_o exact_a performance_n of_o duty_n though_o we_o can_v do_v they_o even_o to_o the_o uttermost_a it_o be_v a_o duty_n that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o do_v and_o the_o do_v of_o that_o which_o we_o owe_v can_v never_o satisfy_v for_o that_o which_o have_v be_v do_v amiss_o by_o we_o but_o our_o repentance_n of_o sin_n and_o our_o reformation_n be_v a_o duty_n which_o the_o gospel_n require_v and_o therefore_o will_v not_o satisfy_v for_o that_o which_o be_v do_v amiss_o before_o our_o conversion_n as_o a_o tenant_n that_o be_v run_v behind_o hand_n with_o his_o landlord_n so_o many_o hundreth_n and_o at_o last_o he_o begin_v to_o consider_v with_o himself_o what_o he_o have_v do_v and_o he_o bring_v the_o rent_n of_o the_o last_o half_a year_n when_o his_o lease_n be_v out_o will_v this_o man_n think_v that_o he_o have_v now_o satisfy_v his_o landlord_n if_o he_o shall_v say_v now_o landlord_n i_o hope_v you_o be_v content_v and_o all_o be_v answer_v and_o have_v full_o pay_v all_o that_o be_v between_o you_o and_o i_o you_o landlord_n will_v be_v ready_a to_o reply_v
