of_o god_n call_v the_o accept_n of_o the_o punishment_n of_o our_o sin_n 26.41_o leu._n 26.41_o but_o if_o the_o sinner_n be_v not_o convince_v that_o he_o suffer_v for_o his_o sin_n and_o that_o

against_o his_o providence_n as_o unequal_a too_o rigorous_a &_o severe_a 2_o neither_o can_v a_o man_n profit_n by_o his_o affliction_n unless_o he_o be_v convince_v that_o his_o sin_n have_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o they_o and_o that_o god_n strike_v at_o they_o in_o his_o suffering_n who_o can_v think_v himself_o concern_v to_o amend_v and_o reform_v that_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o his_o

your_o affliction_n be_v the_o first_o step_v towards_o god_n attain_v his_o end_n in_o afflict_v you_o if_o this_o be_v not_o do_v upon_o you_o nothing_o be_v do_v and_o therefore_o you_o have_v no_o

other_o these_o person_n may_v be_v very_o inclinable_a to_o think_v that_o god_n do_v not_o particular_o intend_v the_o correct_v of_o they_o for_o their_o sin_n in_o the_o common_a judgement_n that_o light_v upon_o the_o place_n but_o that_o they_o suffer_v rather_o upon_o their_o neighbour_n account_v than_o their_o own_o 2._o of_o the_o same_o opinion_n perhaps_o may_v they_o be_v tempt_v

it_o be_v easy_a for_o such_o if_o any_o such_o be_v to_o entertain_v themselves_o with_o a_o pleasant_a dream_n that_o god_n only_o empty_v they_o to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v fill_v they_o full_a

which_o may_v have_v have_v no_o small_a influence_n in_o procure_v the_o heavy_a judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o the_o town_n and_o their_o sin_n in_o respect_n of_o their_o near_a relation_n to_o

sometime_o they_o will_v impute_v all_o to_o the_o malice_n of_o second_o cause_n and_o the_o instrument_n of_o their_o suffering_n never_o look_v so_o high_a as_o god_n without_o who_o no_o

punishment_n or_o correction_n but_o now_o when_o god_n deal_n bear_v such_o a_o resemblance_n of_o and_o correspondence_n with_o their_o sin_n they_o be_v force_v to_o see_v and_o acknowledge_v
