you_o live_v in_o unclean_a thought_n and_o action_n all_o your_o life_n long_o and_o therefore_o this_o can_v be_v no_o prop_n for_o your_o hope_n 3._o though_o david_n do_v fall_v into_o this_o sin_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o continue_v in_o it_o long_o for_o it_o be_v but_o nine_o month_n between_o nathan_n the_o prophet_n come_v to_o david_n and_o tell_v and_o reprove_v he_o for_o his_o sin_n and_o the_o time_n that_o he_o fall_v into_o it_o but_o alas_o some_o of_o you_o it_o may_v be_v be_v adulterer_n of_o nine_o year_n stand_v there_o be_v many_o among_o we_o that_o be_v old_a adulterer_n and_o yet_o never_o have_v a_o melt_a and_o sorrowful_a heart_n for_o their_o sin_n that_o never_o weep_v as_o david_n do_v nor_o mourn_v as_o he_o mourn_v and_o so_o peter_n he_o fall_v into_o a_o sin_n of_o deny_v his_o lord_n and_o master_n but_o 1._o he_o be_v resolve_v and_o do_v very_o purpose_v before_o to_o have_v confess_v and_o not_o to_o have_v deny_v he_o and_o yet_o when_o the_o damsel_n come_v to_o he_o and_o tell_v he_o that_o he_o be_v one_o of_o those_o that_o be_v with_o christ_n &_o peter_n conceive_v it_o may_v be_v that_o they_o will_v have_v put_v he_o to_o death_n and_o crucify_v he_o as_o well_o as_o christ_n upon_o this_o sudden_a surprise_n which_o be_v a_o very_a great_a temptation_n to_o he_o he_o deny_v christ_n and_o 2._o though_o he_o deny_v he_o thrice_o yet_o afterward_o he_o do_v confess_v he_o as_o often_o as_o he_o deny_v he_o for_o when_o christ_n ask_v he_o simon_n peter_n love_v thou_o i_o he_o answer_v christ_n three_o time_n lord_n thou_o know_v that_o i_o love_v thou_o 3._o peter_n deny_v christ_n but_o yet_o afterward_o he_o go_v out_o and_o weep_v bitter_o for_o it_o and_o therefore_o his_o obtain_n mercy_n can_v be_v no_o ground_n for_o your_o hope_n that_o never_o yet_o repent_v of_o any_o of_o the_o sin_n you_o have_v commit_v and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o fall_n of_o these_o three_o godly_a man_n into_o great_a sin_n can_v be_v no_o prop_n to_o bear_v up_o your_o hope_n for_o heaven_n i_o shall_v now_o show_v you_o more_o particular_o that_o though_o the_o godly_a do_v fall_v into_o sin_n yea_o even_o the_o same_o sin_n for_o the_o matter_n of_o they_o as_o you_o do_v yet_o they_o do_v not_o fall_v into_o they_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o 1._o if_o a_o godly_a man_n fall_v into_o sin_n it_o be_v unwitting_o and_o unaware_o in_o gal._n 6._o 1._o say_v the_o apostle_n if_o any_o man_n be_v overtake_v with_o a_o fault_n a_o godly_a man_n he_o run_v away_o with_o all_o the_o speed_n he_o can_v from_o a_o sin_n and_o temptation_n but_o sometime_o it_o overtake_v he_o against_o his_o will_n but_o now_o a_o wicked_a man_n he_o run_v after_o sin_n and_o overtake_v it_o he_o sin_n with_o set_a purpose_n of_o heart_n he_o plot_v mischief_n 4._o upon_o his_o bed_n and_o set_v himself_o in_o a_o way_n that_o be_v not_o good_a 2._o a_o godly_a man_n fall_v into_o sin_n sometime_o but_o it_o be_v with_o reluctancy_n and_o opposition_n the_o spirit_n strive_v against_o the_o flesh_n there_o be_v a_o oppose_a and_o strive_v against_o sin_n they_o be_v not_o like_a coward_n but_o will_v fight_v as_o long_o as_o they_o can_v hold_v their_o weapon_n in_o their_o hand_n but_o now_o wicked_a man_n they_o commit_v sin_n with_o greediness_n with_o delight_n and_o complacency_n without_o any_o reluctancy_n at_o all_o 3._o every_o sin_n that_o a_o godly_a man_n commit_v make_v he_o more_o careful_a and_o watchful_a for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v thus_o it_o be_v with_o david_n psal_n 38._o the_o title_n of_o it_o compare_v with_o psal_n 39_o 1._o the_o 38._o title_n of_o psal_n 38._o be_v call_v a_o psalm_n of_o david_n to_o bring_v to_o remembrance_n the_o subject_a matter_n of_o this_o psalm_n be_v to_o bring_v david_n sin_n to_o his_o remembrance_n and_o have_v spend_v this_o in_o remember_v his_o sin_n in_o the_o first_o word_n of_o the_o next_o psalm_n say_v he_o i_o have_v sin_v 39_o but_o i_o will_v take_v heed_n to_o my_o way_n that_o i_o offend_v not_o with_o my_o tongue_n after_o he_o have_v call_v to_o remembrance_n his_o sin_n past_a than_o he_o resolve_v with_o himself_o to_o strive_v against_o they_o in_o time_n to_o come_v a_o godly_a man_n never_o fall_v into_o a_o sin_n once_o but_o he_o fear_v to_o fall_v into_o the_o same_o sin_n ever_o after_o a_o godly_a man_n though_o he_o fall_v into_o sin_n sometime_o yet_o he_o will_v at_o length_n get_v the_o upper_a hand_n of_o sin_n though_o for_o the_o present_a he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o grapple_v with_o sin_n yet_o he_o will_v overcome_v it_o at_o last_o grace_n will_v out_o grow_v sin_n and_o get_v the_o victory_n over_o it_o and_o thus_o i_o have_v show_v you_o the_o second_o prop_n that_o wicked_a man_n build_v their_o hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o we_o come_v now_o to_o a_o three_o and_o that_o be_v this_o if_o you_o beat_v they_o off_o from_o the_o two_o former_a than_o they_o fly_v to_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n oh_o say_v they_o god_n be_v a_o very_a merciful_a god_n and_o i_o hope_v he_o that_o make_v i_o will_v save_v i_o and_o that_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o heaven_n as_o well_o as_o other_o man_n and_o the_o like_a now_o i_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n be_v the_o chief_a prop_n under_o heaven_n that_o a_o man_n can_v build_v his_o hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o but_o here_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o the_o rottenness_n of_o this_o prop_n likewise_o in_o four_o or_o five_o regard_n and_o that_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o general_n be_v no_o sufficient_a ground_n at_o all_o to_o build_v thy_o hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o unless_o thou_o can_v lay_v claim_n to_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o particular_a for_o if_o you_o build_v your_o hope_n upon_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o general_a 1._o the_o devil_n and_o damn_a spirit_n may_v then_o hope_v as_o well_o as_o you_o 2._o the_o common_a and_o outward_a mercy_n of_o god_n can_v be_v no_o good_a prop_n to_o build_v hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o unless_o you_o can_v lay_v claim_n to_o the_o save_n and_o distinguish_v mercy_n of_o god_n the_o common_a outward_a mercy_n of_o god_n wicked_a man_n may_v have_v for_o god_n be_v good_a to_o all_o and_o his_o tender_a mercy_n be_v over_o all_o his_o work_n the_o devil_n share_v in_o the_o common_a mercy_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o other_o but_o these_o general_a mercy_n of_o god_n be_v no_o prop_n to_o build_v hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o unless_o you_o can_v build_v upon_o the_o save_n and_o distinguish_v mercy_n of_o god_n as_o david_n pray_v show_v mercy_n unto_o i_o o_o god_n say_v he_o with_o the_o mercy_n which_o thou_o bear_v to_o thy_o own_o childeen_n it_o must_v be_v elect_v redeem_n sanctify_a and_o save_v mercy_n that_o you_o must_v build_v your_o hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o 3._o the_o general_a mercy_n of_o god_n can_v be_v no_o ground_n of_o your_o hope_n unless_o you_o have_v a_o interest_n in_o jesus_n christ_n for_o god_n be_v clothe_v with_o greatness_n and_o terror_n and_o dread_a and_o wrath_n out_o of_o christ_n there_o be_v nothing_o to_o be_v look_v upon_o but_o anger_n and_o wrath_n in_o god_n without_o jesus_n christ_n there_o be_v two_o law_n that_o god_n do_v make_v concern_v the_o mercy-seat_n 1._o the_o high_a priest_n be_v not_o upon_o pain_n 4._o of_o death_n to_o come_v to_o the_o mercy-seat_n unless_o he_o bring_v incense_n with_o he_o now_o what_o do_v this_o signify_v to_o we_o why_o it_o represent_v the_o intercession_n of_o christ_n that_o as_o aaron_n be_v not_o to_o come_v to_o the_o mercy-seat_n without_o incense_n so_o neither_o can_v we_o go_v to_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n to_o beg_v mercy_n from_o god_n with_o any_o hope_n of_o audience_n or_o acceptance_n unless_o we_o carry_v incense_v with_o we_o which_o be_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o plead_v for_o we_o 2._o aaron_n be_v to_o sprinkle_v the_o mercy-seat_n with_o blood_n which_o typify_v to_o we_o that_o we_o be_v not_o to_o expect_v mercy_n from_o god_n but_o as_o we_o have_v a_o interest_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n 4._o to_o you_o that_o build_v your_o hope_n for_o heaven_n upon_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o general_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o that_o god_n be_v not_o prodigal_a of_o his_o special_a mercy_n as_o to_o bestow_v they_o upon_o all_o the_o world_n but_o only_o upon_o a_o select_a number_n of_o man_n he_o will_v have_v mercy_n 50._o only_o on_o they_o that_o fear_v he_o as_o for_o the_o wicked_a those_o that_o run_v on_o in_o their_o sin_n the_o lord_n
yet_o you_o shall_v be_v accept_v when_o they_o shall_v be_v reject_v thus_o i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o use_n of_o terror_n in_o lay_v down_o to_o you_o this_o sixfold_a misery_n of_o those_o man_n that_o be_v stranger_n to_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o here_o because_o i_o will_v not_o have_v any_o poor_a soul_n that_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o partaker_n of_o all_o the_o great_a privilege_n of_o it_o to_o go_v away_o with_o a_o sad_a heart_n i_o shall_v only_o leave_v with_o you_o two_o or_o three_o word_n of_o comfort_n to_o they_o you_o child_n of_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n let_v not_o your_o heart_n be_v trouble_v at_o what_o have_v be_v say_v this_o day_n concern_v the_o misery_n of_o those_o man_n that_o be_v stranger_n to_o this_o covenant_n and_o to_o bear_v up_o and_o support_v your_o spirit_n i_o shall_v give_v you_o two_o or_o three_o comfortable_a consideration_n 1._o that_o all_o the_o outward_a blessing_n that_o you_o enjoy_v come_v to_o you_o in_o a_o covenant_n way_n god_n have_v give_v you_o these_o blessing_n as_o a_o appendix_n to_o the_o covenant_n and_o by_o virtue_n of_o a_o entail_n to_o his_o covenant_n the_o lord_n never_o give_v you_o a_o common_a blessing_n but_o you_o see_v the_o love_n of_o a_o father_n and_o of_o a_o husband_n and_o of_o a_o friend_n and_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o that_o blessing_n and_o therefore_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o before_o in_o that_o very_a chapter_n where_o god_n promise_v the_o blessing_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n he_o promise_v the_o blessing_n of_o this_o life_n too_o as_o a_o entail_v to_o the_o covenant_n wicked_a man_n may_v have_v blessing_n but_o not_o by_o virtue_n of_o a_o promise_n not_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n but_o now_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o how_o you_o may_v know_v whether_o the_o blessing_n you_o enjoy_v come_v unto_o you_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n i_o answer_v you_o may_v know_v it_o by_o these_o two_o thing_n 1._o in_o case_n you_o do_v use_v and_o employ_v all_o the_o blessing_n you_o receive_v from_o god_n to_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n thus_o abraham_n do_v as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o gen._n 17._o 1_o 2_o 8_o 12._o his_n use_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n to_o promote_v the_o service_n of_o god_n do_v demonstrate_v that_o those_o blessing_n come_v to_o he_o from_o god_n in_o a_o covenant_n way_n but_o those_o that_o be_v stranger_n to_o this_o covenant_n the_o mercy_n they_o enjoy_v be_v give_v they_o for_o their_o hurt_n 2._o when_o blessing_n be_v as_o cord_n to_o draw_v you_o near_o to_o god_n and_o as_o band_n to_o tie_v you_o fast_o to_o god_n than_o they_o come_v to_o you_o in_o a_o covenant_n way_n as_o in_o jer._n 31._o 11_o 12._o for_o the_o 12._o lord_n have_v redeem_v jacob_n and_o ransom_v he_o from_o the_o hand_n of_o he_o that_o be_v strong_a than_o he_o therefore_o they_o shall_v come_v and_o rejoice_v in_o the_o height_n of_o zion_n and_o shall_v run_v to_o the_o bountifulness_n of_o the_o lord_n even_o for_o the_o wheat_n and_o for_o the_o wine_n and_o for_o the_o oil_n and_o for_o the_o increase_n of_o sheep_n and_o bullock_n etc._n etc._n that_o be_v all_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n shall_v make_v they_o to_o come_v near_o and_o near_o and_o cleave_v close_o to_o god_n you_o then_o that_o do_v enjoy_v your_o share_n of_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n and_o they_o do_v not_o endee_a you_o and_o draw_v you_o near_o to_o god_n you_o can_v look_v upon_o they_o as_o flow_v in_o upon_o you_o in_o a_o covenant_n way_n 2._o you_o that_o be_v in_o covenant_n with_o god_n know_v this_o for_o your_o comfort_n that_o the_o lord_n do_v accept_v of_o a_o little_a that_o you_o do_v in_o his_o service_n better_a than_o a_o great_a deal_n that_o a_o wicked_a man_n perform_v to_o he_o god_n will_v accept_v of_o a_o few_o turtle_n dove_n of_o you_o when_o he_o will_v not_o accept_v of_o 1000_o ram_n or_o 10000_o river_n of_o oil_n of_o the_o wicked_a he_o will_v accept_v of_o a_o cup_n of_o cold_a water_n give_v to_o a_o righteous_a man_n in_o the_o name_n of_o a_o righteous_a man_n when_o he_o will_v not_o accept_v of_o the_o costly_a sacrifice_n from_o the_o wicked_a oh_o what_o a_o happy_a condition_n be_v thou_o in_o that_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n wicked_a man_n may_v hear_v more_o sermon_n and_o perform_v more_o duty_n and_o say_v more_o prayer_n to_o god_n then_o you_o and_o yet_o in_o all_o their_o duty_n be_v reject_v when_o thou_o be_v accept_v 3._o take_v this_o for_o your_o comfort_n that_o when_o ever_o you_o offend_v god_n and_o provoke_v he_o to_o anger_n you_o have_v a_o mediator_n to_o stand_v between_o god_n and_o you_o though_o you_o be_v guilty_a yet_o you_o have_v a_o advocate_n to_o plead_v your_o cause_n for_o you_o you_o that_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n you_o may_v say_v to_o christ_n your_o mediator_n as_o the_o israelite_n say_v to_o moses_n when_o they_o have_v offend_v god_n go_v thou_o and_o speak_v unto_o god_n for_o we_o so_o may_v you_o say_v when_o you_o have_v nothing_o but_o thunder_v and_o lightning_n and_o tempest_n in_o your_o soul_n and_o the_o flashing_n of_o hell_n fire_n in_o your_o conscience_n than_o you_o may_v say_v to_o christ_n go_v now_o to_o god_n and_o speak_v for_o i_o mediate_a with_o thy_o father_n for_o the_o pardon_n of_o all_o my_o sin_n i_o have_v offend_v god_n o●_n intercede_v with_o he_o in_o my_o behalf_n i_o have_v commit_v a_o great_a offence_n oh_o plead_v with_o thy_o father_n and_o beg_v a_o pardon_n for_o i_o thus_o thou_o may_v say_v to_o christ_n be_v under_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n but_o here_o lest_o any_o one_o shall_v lie_v under_o a_o spiritual_a delusion_n and_o think_v himself_o under_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n when_o he_o be_v a_o stranger_n to_o it_o lest_o the_o dog_n shall_v snatch_v at_o the_o child_n meat_n i_o shall_v lay_v down_o to_o you_o some_o distinguish_a character_n whereby_o you_o may_v know_v whether_o you_o be_v under_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n or_o no_o and_o before_o i_o make_v entrance_n upon_o this_o i_o will_v only_o premise_v four_o sad_a and_o dismal_a conclusion_n which_o will_v make_v way_n the_o better_a for_o what_o i_o have_v to_o handle_v in_o the_o examination_n 1._o take_v in_o this_o conclusion_n that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v within_o the_o outward_a and_o common_a privilege_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o yet_o be_v without_o the_o save_n and_o spiritual_a privilege_n of_o it_o as_o pardon_v of_o sin_n have_v god_n to_o be_v your_o god_n and_o christ_n to_o be_v your_o saviour_n etc._n etc._n as_o in_o deut._n 29._o 10_o 11_o 12._o 12._o say_v moses_n there_o you_o stand_v this_o day_n all_o of_o you_o before_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n your_o captain_n of_o tribe_n your_o elder_n and_o your_o officer_n with_o all_o the_o man_n of_o

enter_v into_o covenant_n with_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n now_o here_o you_o see_v be_v all_o from_o the_o rich_a to_o the_o poor_a to_o enter_v into_o covevenant_n with_o god_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o imaginable_a that_o all_o these_o do_v partake_v of_o the_o inward_a privilege_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n they_o do_v all_o partake_v of_o circumcision_n which_o be_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o outward_a privilege_n of_o it_o but_o not_o all_o do_v partake_v of_o the_o inward_a and_o special_a mercy_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n as_o pardon_v of_o sin_n peace_n of_o conscience_n joy_n in_o believe_v god_n to_o be_v their_o god_n and_o christ_n to_o be_v their_o saviour_n and_o so_o in_o rom._n 9_o 4_o 5._o say_v the_o 5._o apostle_n they_o be_v the_o

the_o father_n and_o of_o who_o as_o concern_v the_o flesh_n christ_n come_v these_o be_v very_o great_a privilege_n and_o yet_o say_v the_o text_n in_o vers_fw-la 8._o these_o be_v 8._o not_o all_o the_o child_n of_o god_n though_o they_o have_v the_o external_a blessing_n of_o the_o covenant_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o all_o the_o child_n of_o god_n so_o that_o you_o see_v you_o may_v be_v within_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o partake_v of_o the_o outward_a blessing_n
