bring_v forth_o certain_a judgement_n the_o one_o be_v in_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o it_o be_v rebellion_n against_o god_n it_o be_v 1._o the_o try_n of_o it_o out_o with_o god_n who_o will_n shall_v stand_v yield_v for_o god_n say_v plain_o to_o the_o harden_a sinner_n i_o will_v have_v such_o a_o thing_n do_v no_o say_v the_o tother_o i_o will_v have_v such_o a_o thing_n do_v but_o say_v god_n if_o i_o be_v god_n i_o will_v have_v it_o do_v say_v the_o tother_o i_o be_o resolve_v it_o shall_v be_v thus_o and_o he_o try_v it_o out_o the_o sin_n of_o hardness_n of_o heart_n be_v make_v up_o of_o rebellion_n and_o not_o yield_v he_o take_v up_o the_o buckler_n against_o god_n here_o i_o will_v try_v and_o when_o he_o have_v do_v refuse_v to_o lay_v they_o down_o upon_o a_o summons_n but_o will_v stand_v it_o out_o to_o the_o utmost_a now_o brethren_n it_o be_v not_o imaginable_a that_o any_o thing_n but_o ruin_n shall_v attend_v such_o a_o one_o gamaliel_n speech_n in_o act_n 5._o beware_v say_v he_o 39_o leave_v you_o be_v fighter_n against_o god_n the_o harden_a sinner_n enter_v into_o the_o list_n to_o
contend_v with_o god_n and_o then_o say_v 28._o god_n if_o it_o be_v come_v to_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v try_v who_o word_n shall_v stand_v i_o or_o they_o god_n speak_v to_o the_o very_a case_n of_o some_o harden_a sinner_n that_o say_v to_o the_o prophet_n jeremiah_n they_o will_v do_v what_o be_v good_a in_o their_o eye_n well_o say_v god_n you_o have_v speak_v the_o word_n and_o we_o will_v try_v it_o out_o whether_o you_o or_o i_o shall_v carry_v it_o if_o poor_a worm_n dare_v enter_v the_o lift_v and_o bid_v defiance_n to_o god_n and_o refuse_v to_o submit_v they_o must_v perish_v second_o there_o be_v this_o in_o this_o sin_n of_o hardness_n of_o heart_n that_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o it_o frustrate_v all_o the_o mean_n that_o salvation_n shall_v possible_o serve_v to_o save_v the_o soul_n from_o ruin_n i_o say_v the_o sin_n of_o hardness_n of_o heart_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o frustrate_v all_o those_o mean_n which_o shall_v tend_v to_o save_v the_o soul_n from_o ruin_n 8._o and_o therefore_o you_o will_v find_v it_o ordinary_o if_o you_o will_v hear_v god_n voice_n harden_v not_o your_o heart_n in_o the_o 95._o psalm_n so_o in_o hebrew_n 3._o 15._o to_o day_n if_o you_o will_v hear_v my_o voice_n harden_v not_o your_o heart_n as_o they_o do_v in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o my_o text_n have_v it_o again_o they_o make_v their_o heart_n like_o a_o adamant_n stone_n that_o they_o may_v not_o hear_v the_o word_n that_o god_n have_v say_v to_o they_o so_o that_o this_o be_v a_o sin_n that_o prevent_v all_o those_o ordinance_n and_o mean_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v sanctify_v and_o appoint_v for_o reduce_v a_o soul_n from_o the_o way_n of_o death_n and_o this_o be_v note_v of_o the_o israelite_n in_o the_o wilderness_n that_o though_o they_o have_v innumerable_a miracle_n and_o administration_n of_o all_o sort_n they_o eat_v miracle_n and_o drink_v miracle_n and_o wear_v miracle_n they_o have_v whatsoever_o may_v possible_o do_v a_o people_n good_a all_o these_o be_v lose_v to_o that_o people_n how_o only_o because_o of_o the_o hardness_n of_o their_o heart_n and_o so_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n express_v it_o in_o the_o six_o of_o isaiah_n the_o lord_n do_v by_o the_o prophet_n say_v he_o 19_o harden_v their_o heart_n that_o they_o may_v never_o turn_v and_o be_v heal_v christ_n say_v the_o same_o in_o john_n 12._o 40._o that_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o all_o the_o miracle_n that_o he_o have_v wrought_v among_o they_o and_o all_o the_o sermon_n that_o he_o have_v preach_v among_o they_o do_v they_o no_o good_a because_o their_o heart_n be_v harden_v it_o be_v like_o a_o piece_n of_o stone_n put_v into_o a_o bottle_n mouth_n though_o you_o put_v it_o into_o the_o bottom_n of_o a_o well_o no_o water_n get_v into_o it_o the_o stopple_n keep_v all_o out_o the_o sin_n of_o hardness_n of_o heart_n keep_v the_o soul_n from_o receive_v any_o good_a it_o be_v like_o unto_o the_o harlot_n that_o solomon_n speak_v of_o or_o rather_o like_o they_o that_o go_v in_o to_o the_o harlot_n that_o none_o of_o they_o ever_o turn_v to_o take_v hold_n of_o the_o way_n of_o life_n so_o that_o because_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n that_o be_v open_a rebellion_n against_o god_n and_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n that_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o reject_v all_o the_o mean_n that_o may_v make_v reconciliation_n with_o god_n what_o can_v be_v expect_v but_o the_o heart_n that_o go_v on_o to_o harden_v itself_o must_v needs_o run_v into_o utter_a ruin_n i_o have_v one_o thing_n more_o before_o i_o come_v to_o the_o application_n and_o that_o be_v to_o discover_v how_o this_o sin_n of_o hardness_n of_o heart_n may_v be_v know_v the_o property_n of_o it_o that_o every_o soul_n may_v be_v able_a when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o application_n to_o give_v a_o right_a judgement_n of_o its_o own_o condition_n and_o here_o i_o beseech_v you_o remember_v that_o i_o do_v not_o come_v to_o inquire_v after_o hardness_n of_o heart_n in_o general_a there_o be_v no_o live_a man_n upon_o earth_n but_o his_o heart_n be_v harden_v there_o be_v no_o child_n of_o god_n live_v but_o his_o heart_n be_v harden_v all_o the_o sinful_a motion_n and_o inclination_n that_o be_v find_v in_o we_o they_o be_v all_o the_o fruit_n of_o hardness_n of_o heart_n all_o that_o rebellion_n that_o paul_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o seven_o to_o the_o roman_n a_o law_n in_o the_o member_n rebel_v against_o the_o law_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o lead_v of_o he_o captive_a it_o be_v all_o the_o fruit_n of_o hardness_n of_o heart_n but_o all_o hardness_n be_v not_o the_o hardness_n of_o my_o text_n all_o find_v hardness_n of_o heart_n be_v not_o destructive_a hardness_n be_v not_o ruin_v hardness_n hardness_n feel_v hardness_n bemoan_v hardness_n lament_v and_o strive_v against_o be_v softness_n in_o god_n esteem_n and_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v a_o forerunner_n of_o ruin_n that_o it_o be_v a_o evidence_n of_o salvation_n but_o it_o be_v this_o destroy_a damn_v hardness_n of_o heart_n that_o i_o will_v inquire_v the_o property_n of_o and_o set_v they_o before_o you_o out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o there_o be_v six_o thing_n that_o i_o have_v think_v upon_o whereby_o this_o destroy_a damn_v hardness_n of_o heart_n do_v manifest_v itself_o first_o take_v that_o which_o be_v most_o usual_a in_o the_o scripture_n the_o 1._o lord_n ordinary_o express_v this_o devilish_a hardness_n of_o heart_n yoke_v by_o the_o comparison_n of_o a_o untamed_a heifer_n of_o a_o bullock_n that_o refuse_v to_o carry_v the_o yoke_n to_o draw_v or_o to_o plow_v very_o often_o in_o the_o book_n of_o god_n do_v the_o lord_n describe_z this_o harden_a sinner_n by_o the_o comparison_n of_o a_o untamed_a heifer_n in_o reference_n to_o the_o yoke_n now_o in_o a_o untamed_a heifer_n there_o be_v these_o two_o thing_n remarkable_a to_o my_o purpose_n the_o one_o be_v that_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a it_o will_v throw_v off_o the_o yoke_n that_o you_o will_v put_v upon_o it_o turn_v away_o the_o neck_n rinch_v the_o shoulder_n use_v its_o strength_n and_o all_o that_o it_o have_v to_o keep_v the_o yoke_n that_o it_o may_v not_o come_v upon_o the_o neck_n of_o it_o or_o second_o if_o you_o do_v get_v the_o yoke_n over_o the_o neck_n and_o compel_v it_o to_o be_v under_o the_o yoke_n than_o it_o pine_v away_o fret_n and_o fume_n and_o bellows_o and_o take_v on_o but_o work_v it_o will_v not_o just_o thus_o be_v this_o harden_a heart_n god_n have_v two_o yoke_n the_o one_o be_v work_v the_o yoke_n of_o his_o commandment_n which_o he_o command_v every_o soul_n to_o take_v upon_o its_o self_n this_o yoke_n this_o harden_a wretch_n throw_v away_o with_o indignation_n that_o you_o may_v say_v of_o a_o harden_a heart_n in_o reference_n to_o the_o yoke_n of_o obedience_n as_o job_n speak_v of_o the_o unicorn_n in_o the_o 39_o of_o job_n can_v thou_o entreat_v he_o to_o carry_v thy_o yoke_n and_o to_o plow_v thy_o ground_n can_v thy_o fair_a word_n persuade_v he_o to_o do_v it_o say_v he_o so_o do_v you_o think_v any_o allurement_n for_o god_n shall_v make_v this_o wretched_a man_n carry_v the_o yoke_n of_o god_n commandment_n no_o he_o throw_v they_o off_o what_o god_n will_v have_v he_o do_v he_o will_v not_o do_v but_o than_o god_n have_v another_o yoke_n that_o this_o creature_n can_v keep_v off_o and_o that_o be_v the_o yoke_n of_o correction_n the_o yoke_n of_o judgement_n and_o when_o the_o lord_n put_v that_o yoke_n upon_o he_o than_o he_o pine_v away_o fret_v swelter_v himself_o and_o as_o the_o prophet_n ezekiel_n express_v it_o in_o the_o 24._o of_o ezekiel_n you_o shall_v not_o weep_v that_o be_v you_o shall_v not_o weep_v with_o any_o godly_a sorrow_n but_o you_o shall_v 23._o pine_v away_o in_o your_o iniquity_n and_o the_o lord_n express_v it_o in_o the_o 51._o of_o isaiah_n thy_o son_n do_v faint_a in_o the_o 20._o verse_n they_o be_v like_o a_o

have_v yoke_v they_o with_o judgement_n and_o how_o be_v they_o under_o it_o there_o they_o lie_v like_o a_o bull_n in_o a_o net_n full_a of_o the_o fury_n of_o the_o lord_n yell_v and_o roar_v thus_o the_o harden_a heart_n be_v like_o a_o untamed_a heifer_n the_o yoke_n of_o god_n commandment_n it_o will_v not_o carry_v and_o the_o yoke_n of_o judgement_n though_o it_o must_v carry_v yet_o it_o do_v not_o profit_n by_o they_o but_o only_o pine_v away_o by_o discontent_n under_o they_o this_o first_o
