i_o have_v handle_v they_o at_o large_a in_o my_o four_o sermon_n upon_o this_o chapter_n the_o first_o be_v to_o teach_v we_o that_o in_o the_o great_a and_o most_o fearful_a threaten_n of_o god_n judgement_n there_o be_v comfort_n remain_v hope_v of_o grace_n and_o mercy_n to_o be_v find_v health_n in_o sickness_n and_o life_n in_o death_n the_o second_o be_v a_o warrant_n for_o we_o of_o the_o ministry_n to_o propound_v unto_o you_o the_o threaten_n of_o god_n with_o condition_n of_o repentance_n and_o thus_o we_o offer_v unto_o you_o grace_n and_o mercy_n to_o as_o many_o of_o you_o as_o shall_v be_v of_o humble_a and_o contrite_a heart_n the_o three_o be_v a_o warn_n unto_o you_o to_o all_o that_o have_v this_o grace_n and_o favour_n with_o god_n to_o be_v hearer_n of_o his_o holy_a word_n it_o be_v your_o part_n whensoever_o you_o shall_v hear_v of_o the_o threaten_n of_o god_n judgement_n against_o sinner_n to_o stir_v up_o yourselves_o unto_o repentance_n thereby_o to_o prevent_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o to_o stay_v his_o judgement_n the_o four_o be_v to_o assure_v we_o that_o if_o god_n threaten_v and_o no_o repentance_n follow_v then_o certain_o the_o threaten_n pronounce_v will_v come_v to_o pass_v god_n threaten_v not_o in_o vain_a nor_o do_v he_o terrify_v we_o without_o cause_n if_o we_o prevent_v not_o his_o threaten_n by_o true_a repentance_n his_o threaten_n will_v prevent_v we_o by_o just_a execution_n and_o so_o much_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o first_o doctrine_n arise_v from_o this_o circumstance_n of_o the_o siege_n of_o samaria_n
