same_o it_o be_v turn_v away_o from_o sin_n also_o which_o proper_o be_v repentance_n and_o look_v as_o when_o a_o man_n turn_v his_o back_n towards_o the_o west_n and_o his_o face_n towards_o the_o east_n he_o do_v both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o not_o by_o two_o distinct_a motion_n or_o turn_n of_o his_o body_n but_o by_o one_o and_o the_o same_o neither_o can_v he_o possible_o turn_v his_o face_n towards_o the_o one_o but_o he_o must_v of_o necessity_n by_o and_o with_o the_o same_o motion_n turn_v his_o back_n upon_o the_o other_o so_o be_v it_o between_o faith_n and_o repentance_n god_n do_v not_o work_v faith_n by_o one_o work_n of_o his_o spirit_n by_o itself_o and_o repentance_n by_o another_o by_o itself_o but_o by_o the_o same_o act_n and_o motion_n of_o the_o

the_o scripture_n so_o frequent_o speak_v of_o these_o two_o repent_v and_o believe_v as_o suppose_v involve_v and_o comprehend_v one_o the_o other_o and_o make_v the_o same_o promise_n of_o grace_n

act._n 2._o 38._o be_v call_v the_o receive_n of_o the_o word_n verse_n 41._o and_o believe_v verse_n 44._o and_o as_o peter_n in_o the_o place_n cite_v act._n 2._o 38._o require_v repentance_n in_o the_o jew_n to_o qualify_v and_o fit_v they_o for_o baptism_n so_o do_v philip_n require_v faith_n or_o believe_a in_o the_o eunuch_n act._n 8._o 37._o which_o show_v that_o there_o be_v a_o very_a near_o affinity_n between_o they_o and_o that_o the_o one_o suppose_v the_o other_o so_o act._n 11._o 18._o that_o be_v call_v repentance_n unto_o life_n which_o verse_n 17._o be_v call_v believe_v on_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n beside_o divers_a other_o scripture_n of_o like_a current_n and_o importance_n 17._o yet_o notwithstanding_o though_o as_o have_v be_v in_o effect_n already_o say_v

occasion_v move_v or_o persuade_v to_o believe_v on_o god_n by_o turn_v away_o from_o sin_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a be_v persuade_v and_o draw_v aside_o from_o sin_n by_o believe_v on_o god_n as_o though_o a_o man_n go_v from_o london_n to_o york_n be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o motion_n or_o journey_n yet_o be_v his_o go_v to_o york_n and_o his_o business_n there_o the_o cause_n of_o his_o go_v from_o london_n and_o not_o his_o go_n from_o london_n the_o cause_n of_o his_o go_v to_o york_n even_o so_o be_v the_o creature_n desire_v of_o find_v rest_n and_o happiness_n in_o god_n by_o believe_v on_o he_o the_o cause_n of_o his_o willingness_n to_o turn_v away_o from_o sin_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a his_o willingness_n of_o turn_v away_o from_o sin_n be_v not_o the_o cause_n or_o mean_n of_o his_o desire_n to_o enjoy_v god_n by_o believe_v 18._o as_o for_o that_o passage_n of_o our_o saviour_n matth._n 21._o 32._o which_o be_v allege_v by_o some_o to_o prove_v repentance_n before_o faith_n as_o a_o cause_n or_o mean_n of_o it_o where_o he_o lay_v it_o to_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o chief_a priest_n and_o elder_n that_o when_o they_o have_v see_v it_o that_o be_v that_o the_o publican_n and_o harlot_n have_v believe_v john_n in_o his_o ministry_n yet_o they_o repent_v not_o afterward_o that_o they_o may_v believe_v the_o meaning_n be_v not_o that_o either_o the_o

the_o sense_n and_o importance_n of_o our_o saviour_n reproof_n in_o this_o place_n seem_v only_o this_o that_o their_o perverseness_n and_o obstinacy_n in_o the_o way_n of_o their_o unbelief_n be_v such_o that_o the_o example_n of_o publican_n and_o harlot_n before_o their_o eye_n who_o believe_v on_o he_o and_o repent_v of_o their_o sin_n upon_o the_o preach_n of_o john_n wrought_v not_o at_o

that_o the_o repentance_n here_o speak_v of_o which_o seem_v to_o go_v before_o and_o to_o conduce_v and_o dispose_v towards_o a_o full_a perfect_a and_o complete_a believe_a be_v not_o that_o general_a and_o solemn_a repentance_n by_o which_o the_o heart_n be_v take_v off_o and_o stand_v at_o a_o distance_n from_o all_o sin_n indefinite_o but_o only_a note_n the_o first_o relent_n break_n

estate_n or_o condition_n of_o soul_n whereof_o a_o man_n can_v sudden_o resolve_v whether_o he_o shall_v do_v well_o to_o change_v it_o or_o no_o and_o turn_v believer_n which_o kind_n of_o repent_v or_o relent_v may_v be_v perceive_v in_o some_o about_o and_o somewhat_o before_o the_o time_n of_o their_o settle_a and_o full_a conversion_n &_o believe_a and_o may_v be_v instrumental_a and_o serviceable_a in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n towards_o the_o effect_n thereof_o this_o exposition_n may_v be_v further_o open_v and_o confirm_v as_o well_o by_o the_o context_n and_o

do_v it_o 19_o the_o sum_n then_o of_o all_o that_o we_o have_v reason_v and_o lay_v down_o in_o this_o four_o member_n of_o our_o answer_n come_v to_o this_o that_o how_o sinful_a vile_a and_o unworthy_a soever_o a_o man_n have_v be_v or_o yet_o be_v he_o be_v not_o therefore_o bind_v in_o conscience_n to_o defer_v or_o put_v off_o his_o believe_a or_o depend_v on_o god_n till_o he_o have_v repent_v of_o and_o forsake_v all_o his_o sin_n no_o but_o whensoever_o the_o golden_a sceptre_n of_o grace_n and_o acceptation_n in_o christ_n be_v hold_v out_o unto_o he_o though_o it_o be_v whilst_o he_o be_v yet_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o iniquity_n he_o ought_v without_o any_o more_o ado_n especial_o when_o he_o find_v his_o heart_n touch_v from_o heaven_n and_o any_o desire_n work_v in_o he_o that_o way_n to_o leap_v and_o spring_n as_o it_o be_v into_o those_o everlasting_a arm_n of_o the_o mercy_n and_o faithfulness_n of_o god_n which_o be_v ever_o open_a to_o embrace_v

the_o five_o place_n to_o draw_v towards_o a_o conclusion_n of_o this_o great_a and_o important_a business_n whereas_o it_o be_v lay_v in_o in_o the_o objection_n that_o wicked_a man_n be_v discourage_v from_o expect_v any_o good_a from_o god_n by_o those_o threaten_n that_o be_v so_o severe_o bend_v against_o they_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o all_o threaten_n whatsoever_o that_o be_v go_v out_o of_o the_o mouth_n of_o god_n against_o sinful_a and_o wicked_a man_n have_v no_o long_o power_n over_o they_o than_o they_o continue_v in_o their_o unbelief_n their_o power_n this_o

that_o they_o have_v some_o kind_n of_o dependence_n on_o he_o as_o the_o apostle_n argue_v this_o point_n rom._n 10._o 14._o how_o shall_v they_o call_v on_o he_o on_o who_o they_o have_v not_o

answer_v by_o way_n of_o concession_n 11._o but_o second_o by_o way_n of_o exception_n i_o answer_v divers_a thing_n first_o that_o howsoever_o the_o child_n and_o servant_n of_o god_n that_o be_v man_n and_o woman_n that_o be_v already_o convert_v and_o of_o some_o stand_n and_o continuance_n in_o the_o way_n of_o grace_n have_v special_a encouragement_n to_o stay_v themselves_o upon_o god_n and_o to_o depend_v upon_o he_o for_o protection_n under_o or_o deliverance_n out_o of_o danger_n yet_o as_o christ_n tell_v the_o people_n that_o stand_v by_o when_o that_o voice_n come_v from_o heaven_n and_o speak_v unto_o he_o john_n 12._o 28._o that_o it_o come_v not_o because_o of_o he_o but_o for_o their_o sake_n who_o yet_o be_v unbeliever_n as_o appear_v verse_n 37._o and_o so_o though_o he_o be_v infinite_o more_o belove_v of_o god_n than_o they_o yet_o in_o that_o particular_a in_o the_o miraculous_a voice_n though_o direct_v particular_o unto_o he_o god_n respect_v they_o more_o than_o he_o so_o in_o those_o encouragement_n for_o dependence_n on_o god_n which_o be_v particular_o direct_v to_o the_o child_n and_o servant_n of_o god_n though_o god_n love_v these_o many_o degree_n better_o than_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o world_n yet_o may_v he_o more_o respect_v the_o residue_n of_o man_n at_o least_o his_o elect_a which_o yet_o lie_v hide_v among_o they_o walk_v in_o the_o same_o way_n of_o sin_n and_o vanity_n with_o they_o than_o his_o child_n and_o servant_n themselves_o god_n may_v therefore_o speak_v gracious_o and_o comfortable_o and_o indulgent_o to_o those_o that_o be_v his_o child_n and_o servant_n to_o commend_v the_o sweetness_n of_o his_o service_n unto_o other_o and_o to_o draw_v they_o also_o to_o desire_v part_n and_o fellowship_n in_o so_o bless_v a_o business_n as_o the_o happiness_n of_o his_o father_n servant_n above_o the_o condition_n he_o be_v in_o for_o the_o present_a move_v the_o prodigal_a son_n we_o know_v to_o return_v home_o to_o his_o father_n house_n luk._n 15._o 17._o 12._o but_o second_o suppose_v this_o be_v not_o so_o that_o god_n have_v no_o such_o eye_n upon_o those_o that_o be_v yet_o without_o that_o be_v yet_o the_o servant_n of_o sin_n and_o satan_n in_o those_o gracious_a encouragement_n to_o his_o saint_n to_o make_v their_o dependence_n upon_o he_o and_o to_o secure_v themselves_o in_o his_o love_n and_o care_n over_o they_o in_o time_n of_o danger_n yet_o further_o i_o answer_v that_o not_o only_o righteous_a person_n man_n and_o woman_n who_o have_v already_o embrace_v the_o way_n and_o service_n of_o god_n have_v encouragement_n to_o come_v unto_o he_o and_o to_o depend_v on_o he_o but_o even_o other_o also_o yea_o the_o great_a of_o sinner_n and_o the_o most_o unworthy_a wash_v you_o make_v you_o clean_o etc._n etc._n say_v the_o lord_n to_o the_o high_a rank_n of_o sinner_n esa_n 1._o 16._o 17._o etc._n etc._n and_o then_o come_v now_o and_o let_v we_o reason_n together_o say_v the_o lord_n though_o your_o sin_n be_v as_o scarlet_a yet_o shall_v they_o be_v as_o white_a as_o snow_n though_o they_o be_v as_o red_a as_o crimson_a yet_o shall_v they_o be_v as_o wool_n if_o you_o be_v willing_a and_o obedient_a you_o shall_v eat_v the_o good_a thing_n of_o the_o land_n sure_o god_n be_v willing_a that_o man_n shall_v depend_v upon_o he_o for_o the_o obtain_n of_o such_o thing_n as_o he_o promise_v unto_o they_o now_o you_o see_v that_o here_o he_o promise_v both_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o outward_a prosperity_n to_o those_o who_o sin_n be_v as_o scarlet_a and_o crimson_a only_o upon_o their_o repentance_n i_o may_v add_v many_o more_o passage_n of_o like_a importance_n if_o you_o here_o again_o object_n but_o i_o doubt_v whether_o i_o have_v
