thick_a cloud_n thy_o transgression_n and_o will_v remember_v thy_o sin_n no_o more_o fear_v not_o i_o be_o with_o thou_o be_v not_o dismay_v for_o i_o be_o thy_o god_n be_v of_o good_a cheer_n thy_o sin_n be_v forgive_v thou_o or_o the_o like_a this_o question_n may_v be_v move_v hereupon_o quest_n when_o a_o man_n have_v some_o promise_n or_o word_n of_o grace_n come_v into_o his_o thought_n so_o as_o to_o make_v impression_n upon_o his_o heart_n and_o quiet_v he_o as_o to_o his_o fear_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n how_o shall_v he_o know_v that_o this_o be_v speak_v by_o the_o spirit_n to_o witness_v to_o he_o that_o he_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v a_o delusion_n answ_n 1_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v sometime_o comfort_v the_o heart_n of_o believer_n by_o some_o promise_n or_o word_n of_o grace_n mention_v in_o the_o scripture_n be_v not_o to_o be_v question_v as_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o convince_a man_n of_o sin_n and_o their_o last_o estate_n by_o nature_n do_v often_o make_v use_n of_o some_o place_n of_o scripture_n as_o for_o example_n the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n against_o all_o unrighteousness_n of_o man_n and_o settle_v home_o the_o commandment_n of_o the_o law_n with_o the_o curse_n annex_v to_o the_o breach_n of_o they_o in_o particular_a to_o the_o soul_n as_o if_o the_o lord_n do_v speak_v from_o heaven_n to_o that_o particular_a person_n i_o have_v say_v in_o my_o law_n thou_o shall_v have_v no_o other_o god_n before_o i_o but_o thou_o have_v make_v riches_n thy_o god_n thy_o belly_n thy_o god_n thy_o name_n and_o esteem_v among_o man_n thy_o god_n therefore_o thou_o be_v curse_v i_o have_v say_v in_o my_o law_n thou_o shall_v not_o take_v my_o name_n in_o vain_a but_o thou_o have_v do_v it_o i_o have_v say_v thou_o shall_v keep_v my_o sabbath_n holy_a but_o thou_o have_v not_o regard_v it_o and_o so_o thou_o have_v break_v this_o commandment_n and_o the_o other_o i_o have_v say_v curse_v be_v every_o one_o that_o continue_v not_o in_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n to_o do_v it_o therefore_o thou_o be_v under_o the_o curse_n and_o what_o will_v thou_o do_v as_o the_o holy_a ghost_n i_o say_v do_v often_o set_v home_o such_o scripture_n to_o convince_v man_n os_fw-la sin_n and_o show_v they_o their_o need_n of_o christ_n so_o do_v the_o holy_a ghost_n many_o time_n make_v use_v of_o other_o scripture_n that_o hold_v forth_o god_n free_a grace_n in_o christ_n both_o at_o first_o to_o work_v faith_n and_o draw_v the_o soul_n to_o christ_n and_o afterward_o to_o fill_v the_o heart_n with_o joy_n and_o peace_n in_o believe_v therefore_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o a_o profane_a heart_n and_o destitute_a of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o conversion_n and_o of_o the_o comfort_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o make_v a_o mock_n and_o jeer_v of_o scripture_n and_o promise_v give_v into_o and_o set_v home_o upon_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n 2._o sometime_o promise_n and_o word_n of_o grace_n be_v give_v into_o the_o soul_n to_o work_v grace_n at_o that_o time_n and_o not_o to_o witness_v that_o grace_n be_v wrought_v before_o for_o we_o ordinary_o receive_v the_o spirit_n to_o work_v grace_n at_o first_o in_o we_o by_o hear_v in_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n or_o else_o dart_v more_o immediate_o from_o god_n into_o our_o soul_n some_o promise_n or_o declaration_n of_o god_n grace_n in_o christ_n and_o if_o that_o be_v all_o our_o mistake_n that_o at_o such_o a_o time_n when_o we_o think_v the_o holy_a ghost_n set_v home_o such_o or_o such_o a_o promise_n and_o word_n of_o grace_n upon_o our_o heart_n to_o assure_v we_o that_o we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n that_o he_o do_v it_o at_o that_o time_n to_o work_v the_o first_o special_a grace_n in_o we_o and_o unite_v we_o unto_o christ_n so_o that_o that_o be_v the_o time_n of_o our_o first_o receive_v christ_n if_o this_o i_o say_v be_v all_o the_o mistake_v it_o be_v not_o dangerous_a 3._o last_o it_o must_v be_v grant_v that_o all_o that_o have_v a_o promise_n or_o word_n of_o grace_n come_v into_o their_o mind_n yea_o though_o it_o take_v some_o impression_n on_o they_o and_o quiet_a their_o thought_n and_o affect_v they_o with_o a_o kind_n of_o joy_n for_o the_o present_a have_v not_o these_o word_n give_v in_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n either_o to_o work_v save_v grace_n in_o they_o at_o that_o time_n or_o to_o bear_v witness_n to_o they_o that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n for_o such_o as_o be_v compare_v in_o the_o scripture_n to_o the_o stony_a ground_n do_v sometime_o hear_v the_o word_n with_o joy_n and_o consequent_o have_v it_o come_v into_o their_o thought_n with_o some_o flash_n of_o joy_n and_o those_o that_o fall_v away_o do_v taste_v of_o the_o heavenly_a gift_n and_o after_o a_o sort_n be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n heb._n 6._o in_o some_o of_o his_o common_a motion_n and_o impression_n upon_o their_o heart_n as_o have_v be_v open_v more_o large_o before_o so_o that_o for_o a_o conclusion_n of_o this_o matter_n if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o work_n of_o grace_n wrought_v in_o the_o heart_n even_o a_o abide_a work_n as_o well_o as_o promise_n &_o word_n of_o grace_n that_o transient_o and_o sudden_o pass_v through_o the_o thought_n we_o may_v be_v fearful_o mistake_v about_o our_o spiritual_a estate_n but_o if_o we_o can_v find_v such_o faith_n in_o christ_n such_o repentance_n and_o such_o love_n to_o god_n wrought_v in_o we_o as_o have_v before_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o more_o promise_n and_o word_n of_o grace_n be_v cast_v into_o our_o thought_n the_o better_a for_o they_o strengthen_v true_a believer_n in_o holiness_n and_o communion_n with_o god_n and_o be_v as_o so_o many_o love-token_n send_v they_o from_o jesus_n christ_n by_o the_o spirit_n till_o they_o come_v to_o he_o in_o heaven_n hypocrite_n and_o notional_a professor_n turn_v such_o promise_n and_o word_n of_o grace_n into_o wantonness_n and_o into_o a_o snare_n to_o their_o own_o soul_n but_o true_a believer_n get_v real_a good_a by_o they_o and_o lay_v up_o these_o say_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o cleave_v the_o more_o unto_o the_o lord_n in_o faith_n and_o holiness_n thus_o i_o have_v
