that_o you_o may_v be_v humble_v yet_o that_o the_o lord_n shall_v keep_v you_o from_o this_o sin_n this_o unpardonable_a sin_n for_o which_o there_o be_v no_o sacrifice_n nor_o no_o remission_n o_o what_o mercy_n and_o what_o grace_n be_v this_o object_n 1_o but_o i_o be_o afraid_a i_o have_v sin_v this_o sin_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v i_o have_v often_o fear_v it_o and_o my_o reason_n be_v and_o be_v because_o my_o sin_n be_v so_o great_a so_o exceed_v great_a answ_n great_a say_v you_o how_o great_a man_n i_o have_v sin_v against_o my_o light_n i_o have_v sin_v against_o my_o knowledge_n i_o have_v sin_v against_o my_o conviction_n and_o therefore_o i_o fear_v i_o have_v sin_v the_o unpardonable_a sin_n but_o i_o pray_v for_o answer_n do_v not_o adam_n sin_n against_o light_n when_o he_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n do_v he_o not_o sin_n against_o his_o knowledge_n &_o against_o conscience_n yet_o he_o sin_v not_o against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n though_o he_o bring_v all_o the_o world_n under_o condemnation_n by_o his_o sin_n for_o the_o lord_n himself_o come_v and_o preach_v mercy_n to_o he_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n shall_v break_v the_o serpent_n head_n and_o i_o pray_v do_v not_o jonah_n when_o he_o run_v away_o from_o god_n sin_n against_o his_o light_n and_o do_v he_o not_o sin_n against_o his_o conviction_n and_o against_o his_o knowledge_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o lord_n pardon_v he_o and_o wonderful_o deliver_v he_o possible_o this_o therefore_o may_v be_v and_o yet_o not_o a_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o that_o those_o who_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v sin_n against_o their_o light_n knowledge_n and_o conscience_n but_o whoever_o sin_n against_o light_n and_o knowledge_n though_o he_o sin_n great_o do_v not_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n object_n 2_o o_o but_o i_o fear_v that_o i_o have_v sin_v this_o sin_n for_o i_o have_v fall_v foul_o into_o gross_a sin_n answ_n that_o be_v ill_a but_o i_o pray_v do_v not_o david_n sin_n so_o be_v they_o not_o great_a &_o gross_a and_o foul_a sin_n that_o david_n fall_v into_o such_o as_o one_o of_o your_o civil_a moral_a man_n will_v abhor_v yet_o he_o do_v not_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o lord_n pardon_v he_o and_o nathan_n say_v from_o the_o lord_n the_o lord_n have_v forgive_v thou_o object_n 3_o o_o but_o yet_o i_o fear_v that_o i_o have_v sin_v this_o great_a sin_n for_o i_o be_o much_o decline_v i_o have_v lose_v my_o former_a acquaintance_n and_o communion_n with_o god_n i_o have_v lose_v my_o former_a heat_n and_o affection_n to_o good_a and_o in_o duty_n and_o i_o fear_v upon_o this_o account_n that_o i_o have_v sin_v this_o great_a sin_n answ_n be_v it_o so_o yet_o do_v not_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n lose_v she_o first_o love_n yet_o this_o church_n of_o ephesus_n do_v not_o sin_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n why_o for_o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o she_o repent_v and_o do_v thy_o first_o work_n she_o can_v not_o have_v repent_v thus_o if_o she_o have_v sin_v this_o sin_n object_n 4_o o_o but_o yet_o i_o fear_v that_o i_o have_v sin_v this_o great_a sin_n because_o that_o i_o have_v sin_v direct_o against_o the_o spirit_n i_o have_v quench_v i_o have_v grieve_v i_o have_v resist_v the_o spirit_n the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v come_v and_o fall_v upon_o my_o heart_n in_o preach_v and_o i_o resist_v and_o grieve_v it_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v fall_v upon_o my_o heart_n in_o prayer_n and_o i_o have_v grieve_v that_o therefore_o i_o fear_v i_o have_v sin_v this_o great_a sin_n that_o shall_v never_o be_v pardon_v answ_n this_o be_v ill_a too_o but_o those_o that_o you_o read_v of_o in_o act_n 7._o resist_v the_o holy_a ghost_n yet_o they_o do_v not_o sin_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o then_o stephen_n will_v not_o have_v pray_v for_o they_o and_o indeed_o belove_v if_o every_o resist_n of_o the_o breathe_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o grieve_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v the_o unpardonable_a sin_n what_o godly_a man_n will_v be_v free_a a_o godly_a man_n be_v more_o proper_o say_v to_o grieve_v the_o spirit_n than_o a_o wicked_a man_n if_o a_o enemy_n strike_v you_o you_o be_v angry_a if_o your_o friend_n strike_v you_o you_o be_v grieve_v if_o a_o wicked_a man_n strike_v at_o god_n he_o be_v angry_a with_o he_o if_o a_o godly_a man_n strike_v at_o god_n god_n be_v angry_a and_o his_o spirit_n be_v grieve_v because_o he_o be_v a_o friend_n grieve_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n whereby_o you_o be_v seal_v unto_o the_o day_n of_o redemption_n so_o that_o thus_o far_o possible_o a_o man_n may_v go_v and_o yet_o not_o sin_v this_o unpardonable_a sin_n object_n 5_o but_o i_o be_o afraid_a that_o i_o have_v sin_v this_o great_a sin_n the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n because_o i_o have_v not_o own_v but_o deny_v the_o truth_n the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v to_o enlighten_v and_o to_o lead_v into_o truth_n and_o i_o have_v not_o own_v but_o deny_v the_o truth_n rather_o therefore_o i_o fear_v that_o i_o have_v sin_v this_o great_a sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n answ_n this_o be_v evil_a very_a evil_n i_o remember_v a_o speech_n of_o godteschalchus_n worthy_a to_o be_v write_v in_o

shall_v be_v for_o ever_o deny_v by_o the_o truth_n that_o be_v christ_n but_o i_o pray_v do_v not_o peter_n deny_v the_o truth_n when_o he_o deny_v christ_n and_o do_v he_o not_o do_v it_o again_o and_o again_o and_o do_v he_o not_o do_v it_o open_o with_o scandal_n and_o do_v he_o not_o do_v it_o after_o admonition_n and_o do_v he_o not_o do_v it_o with_o curse_v and_o swear_v and_o yet_o he_o

man_n may_v go_v possible_o and_o yet_o not_o sin_v this_o sin_n object_n 6_o o_o but_o i_o be_o afraid_a yet_o that_o i_o have_v sin_v it_o for_o i_o have_v be_v a_o opposer_n of_o goodness_n i_o have_v be_v a_o opposer_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o i_o have_v be_v a_o blasphemer_n therefore_o i_o fear_v i_o have_v sin_v this_o sin_n answ_n this_o be_v ill_a indeed_o but_o i_o pray_v tell_v i_o be_v not_o paul_n a_o opposer_n and_o blasphemer_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o way_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o he_o do_v not_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o i_o do_v it_o ignorant_o say_v he_o i_o be_v a_o blasphemer_n and_o a_o persecutor_n but_o i_o obtain_v mercy_n for_o i_o do_v it_o ignorant_o object_n 7_o o_o but_o i_o have_v sin_v and_o i_o have_v do_v it_o malicious_o and_o therefore_o i_o fear_v i_o have_v sin_v this_o same_o dreadful_a sin_n answ_n this_o be_v yet_o worse_a but_o what_o mean_v you_o by_o that_o word_n malicious_o 1._o peccatum_fw-la ex_fw-la

go_v to_o heaven_n and_o be_v save_v for_o ever_o what_o then_o though_o thou_o have_v stay_v long_o and_o have_v long_o want_v assurance_n yet_o god_n have_v not_o lead_v thou_o so_o far_o as_o he_o have_v lead_v some_o and_o thy_o condition_n be_v no_o other_o than_o that_o which_o may_v befall_v the_o dear_a servant_n and_o child_n of_o god_n answ_n 3_o but_o three_o though_o for_o the_o

with_o much_o fear_n and_o doubt_v about_o his_o everlasting_a condition_n yet_o there_o be_v argument_n in_o scripture_n whereby_o a_o man_n may_v ordinary_o know_v and_o conclude_v that_o he_o shall_v have_v peace_n and_o assurance_n before_o he_o die_v for_o example_n arg._n 1_o first_o he_o that_o be_v content_a to_o stay_v and_o go_v without_o a_o mercy_n if_o god_n will_v have_v it_o so_o shall_v not_o want_v it_o for_o ever_o for_o the_o patient_a abide_n of_o the_o meek_a shall_v noâ—_n be_v forget_v for_o ever_o 9_o psal_n 9_o as_o the_o way_n to_o have_v affliction_n continue_v be_v to_o be_v discontent_v under_o it_o so_o the_o way_n to_o have_v it_o remove_v be_v to_o be_v content_v with_o it_o there_o be_v a_o faith_n of_o expectance_n a_o faith_n of_o reliance_n and_o the_o faith_n of_o assurance_n the_o faith_n of_o expectance_n will_v rise_v up_o into_o a_o faith_n of_o reliance_n and_o the_o faith_n of_o reliance_n to_o the_o faith_n of_o

wrought_v wonder_n for_o thy_o soul_n when_o thou_o be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o in_o a_o desert_n then_o certain_o he_o will_v bring_v thou_o into_o the_o land_n of_o rest_n so_o he_o deal_v by_o david_n so_o he_o deal_v by_o israel_n so_o he_o will_v deal_v by_o thou_o arg._n 3_o three_o if_o thy_o heart_n be_v upright_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o thy_o assurance_n god_n will_v certain_o give_v assurance_n unto_o thou_o 84.11_o psal_n 84.11_o for_o you_o know_v what_o the_o psalmist_n say_v the_o d_o will_v give_v grace_n and_o glory_n and_o no_o good_a thing_n will_v he_o withhold_v

for_o the_o present_a thou_o want_v it_o now_o i_o pray_v when_o be_v a_o man_n heart_n upright_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o his_o assurance_n but_o when_o he_o do_v desire_v assurance_n of_o god_n

be_v three_o thing_n observable_a first_o he_o be_v in_o a_o very_a low_a condition_n at_o the_o gate_n of_o death_n from_o the_o gate_n of_o death_n say_v he_o gate_n of_o death_n that_o be_v the_o

the_o health_n of_o your_o countenance_n you_o shall_v have_v the_o assurance_n of_o your_o salvation_n in_o due_a time_n though_o now_o you_o want_v it_o thus_o the_o psalmist_n reason_n in_o the_o
