just_a to_o the_o same_o effect_n and_o with_o they_o i_o shall_v conclude_v the_o first_o be_v that_o of_o st._n paul_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n where_o have_v speak_v most_o severe_a

be_v thus_o persuade_v very_o this_o 11._o ver_fw-la 11._o for_o god_n say_v he_o be_v not_o unrighteous_a to_o forget_v your_o work_n and_o labour_n of_o love_n which_o you_o have_v show_v to_o his_o name_n in_o that_o you_o have_v minister_v to_o the_o saint_n and_o yet_o do_v minister_v it_o be_v pure_o their_o charity_n to_o the_o brethren_n that_o make_v he_o have_v these_o good_a hope_n of_o

they_o the_o way_n to_o do_v it_o be_v to_o persevere_v in_o their_o diligent_a attendence_n to_o work_n of_o mercy_n and_o kindness_n and_o charity_n the_o second_o passage_n be_v that_o of_o st._n

how_o dwell_v the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o he_o my_o little_a child_n let_v we_o not_o love_v in_o word_n neither_o in_o tongue_n but_o indeed_o and_o in_o truth_n and_o hereby_o we_o know_v that_o

of_o sin_n charity_n be_v of_o that_o power_n with_o god_n that_o it_o alone_o be_v able_a to_o overcome_v the_o malignity_n of_o many_o of_o our_o sin_n and_o frailty_n that_o will_v otherwise_o do_v

will_v cover_v a_o multitude_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o other_o life_n also_o that_o be_v whoever_o be_v of_o a_o true_o charitable_a disposition_n and_o do_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o good_a in_o his_o

in_o his_o life_n will_v cover_v the_o multitude_n of_o sin_n though_o it_o will_v not_o be_v available_a for_o the_o make_v he_o happy_a because_o he_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o be_v so_o yet_o it_o

to_o consume_v the_o adversary_n iii_o the_o three_o general_n point_v i_o be_o to_o insist_v on_o from_o the_o text_n be_v the_o end_n of_o our_o saviour_n appearance_n and_o that_o be_v here_o say_v to_o be_v the_o put_v away_o of_o sin_n once_o in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n have_v he_o appear_v to_o put_v away_o sin_n this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o scripture_n every_o where_o assign_v as_o the_o business_n and_o design_n of_o christ_n come_v to_o run_v over_o all_o the_o particular_a text_n will_v be_v tedious_a in_o so_o plain_a a_o case_n i_o shall_v therefore_o only_o name_v one_o or_o two_o this_o be_v the_o account_n that_o st._n john_n give_v of_o his_o appearance_n 1_o ep._n ch._n 3._o you_o know_v say_v he_o that_o he_o be_v manifest_v to_o take_v away_o our_o sin_n and_o again_o this_o be_v the_o account_n that_o the_o angel_n give_v to_o joseph_n a_o little_a before_o his_o birth_n mat._n 1.20_o fear_v not_o say_v he_o to_o take_v unto_o thou_o marry_o thy_o

save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n he_o be_v call_v jesus_n because_o he_o be_v design_v by_o god_n to_o be_v our_o saviour_n for_o so_o much_o that_o word_n import_v and_o he_o be_v therefore_o our_o saviour_n because_o he_o save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n which_o be_v in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n to_o put_v they_o away_o but_o what_o be_v it_o to_o be_v save_v from_o our_o sin_n or_o to_o have_v our_o sin_n put_v away_o since_o the_o salvation_n we_o have_v by_o christ_n do_v consist_v in_o this_o it_o be_v fit_a we_o shall_v a_o little_a more_o particular_o insist_v on_o it_o in_o answer_n therefore_o to_o this_o question_n we_o say_v that_o two_o thing_n be_v employ_v in_o christ_n be_v put_v away_o sin_n first_o his_o save_n or_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o gild_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o punishment_n due_a to_o they_o second_o his_o save_n or_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o power_n and_o dominion_n of_o they_o in_o these_o two_o thing_n consist_v the_o salvation_n obtain_v for_o we_o by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o if_o either_o of_o they_o be_v want_v or_o be_v not_o effect_v he_o will_v not_o be_v a_o complete_a saviour_n first_o christ_n appear_v to_o put_v away_o sin_n by_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o gild_n and_o punishment_n of_o it_o that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o procure_v for_o we_o the_o pardon_n and_o remission_n of_o it_o this_o be_v the_o salvation_n which_o zachary_n in_o his_o hymn_n foretell_v john_n baptist_n shall_v publish_v to_o the_o world_n luke_n 1_o to_o give_v knowledge_n of_o salvation_n to_o his_o people_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o this_o be_v that_o redemption_n of_o christ_n which_o st._n paul_n speak_v of_o 1_o coloss_n 14._o in_o who_o we_o have_v redemption_n through_o his_o blood_n even_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o last_o st._n paul_n sermon_n to_o the_o gentile_n be_v be_v it_o know_v unto_o you_o man_n and_o brethren_n that_o through_o this_o man_n jesus_n christ_n be_v preach_v unto_o you_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o by_o he_o all_o that_o believe_v be_v justify_v from_o all_o thing_n from_o which_o you_o can_v not_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n acts._n 13._o and_o therefore_o much_o less_o certain_o by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n the_o effect_n of_o these_o text_n be_v that_o all_o mankind_n be_v sinner_n be_v conclude_v under_o sin_n be_v become_v guilty_a before_o god_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v the_o most_o innocent_a person_n be_v not_o except_v all_o without_o exception_n have_v by_o their_o sin_n fall_v short_a of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n mean_v now_o for_o the_o free_n themselves_o from_o the_o gild_n of_o these_o sin_n they_o have_v none_o nor_o be_v it_o possible_a they_o shall_v have_v for_o that_o whole_o depend_v upon_o the_o pleasure_n of_o he_o to_o who_o they_o have_v render_v themselves_o obnoxious_a and_o that_o be_v god_n the_o governor_n of_o the_o world_n here_o therefore_o appear_v the_o infinite_a mercy_n of_o god_n and_o the_o kindness_n of_o our_o saviour_n the_o eternal_a word_n interpose_v and_o offer_v himself_o to_o become_v man_n and_o in_o that_o person_n to_o make_v satisfaction_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o god_n accept_v the_o term_n and_o hereupon_o a_o covenant_n be_v make_v between_o god_n and_o mankind_n wherein_o god_n for_o his_o part_n upon_o account_n of_o this_o mediation_n of_o christ_n promise_v forgiveness_n of_o all_o sin_n to_o all_o true_a penitent_n all_o the_o world_n over_o o_o joyful_a tiding_n these_o what_o ease_n be_v here_o to_o wound_a conscience_n what_o comfort_n to_o despair_a sinner_n what_o encouragement_n to_o all_o man_n every_o where_o to_o repent_v if_o we_o consider_v mankind_n in_o their_o pure_a natural_n and_o as_o without_o christ_n jesus_n this_o plain_o be_v their_o case_n they_o do_v believe_v a_o supreme_a god_n and_o their_o reason_n it_o be_v likely_a will_v tell_v they_o that_o god_n be_v good_a and_o merciful_a but_o yet_o this_o reason_n can_v discover_v no_o more_o than_o god_n general_a goodness_n to_o they_o that_o all_o along_o endeavour_v to_o please_v and_o approve_v themselves_o too_o he_o but_o as_o for_o his_o willingness_n to_o pardon_v and_o forgive_v sinner_n especial_o those_o that_o have_v offend_v he_o by_o very_o grievous_a crime_n or_o live_v in_o a_o long_a habitual_a course_n of_o wickedness_n this_o they_o can_v not_o conclude_v from_o their_o reason_n nay_o if_o they_o do_v reason_n as_o they_o just_o may_v they_o may_v rather_o be_v incline_v to_o believe_v that_o he_o will_v not_o pardon_v such_o criminal_n for_o as_o their_o reason_n tell_v they_o that_o god_n be_v good_a so_o the_o same_o reason_n tell_v they_o that_o he_o be_v just_a and_o have_v a_o infinite_a regard_n to_o the_o honour_n and_o reputation_n of_o his_o law_n which_o law_n their_o own_o conscience_n tell_v they_o they_o have_v heinous_o transgress_v nor_o have_v they_o any_o thing_n wherewith_o to_o compensate_a or_o make_v satisfaction_n for_o the_o transgression_n of_o they_o and_o therefore_o what_o can_v they_o expect_v from_o so_o just_a a_o god_n but_o to_o undergo_v the_o punishment_n they_o have_v deserve_v this_o be_v a_o very_a uncomfortable_a reason_v and_o yet_o such_o a_o one_o it_o be_v as_o there_o be_v
