Wherein that great duty of setting our body and soul in order, for we shall die, is at large opened and explained Wherein also many divine truths are made known relating to the same matter; and now published, because of the exceeding importance and concernment of this subject unto all people whatsoever.	Stafford, Richard, 1663-1703.	1696 (1696)	Wing S5135; ESTC R230779	115,810	178

which_o the_o apostle_n use_v in_o the_o follow_a verse_n forasmuch_o then_o as_o you_o know_v that_o god_n be_v holy_a without_o the_o least_o mixture_n or_o tincture_n of_o sin_n or_o evil_n as_o christ_n the_o lamb_n be_v without_o blemish_n and_o without_o spot_n verse_n 19_o it_o must_v follow_v of_o consequence_n that_o none_o be_v holy_a as_o he_o which_o have_v call_v you_o be_v holy_a if_o there_o be_v a_o mixture_n or_o tincture_n of_o sin_n therein_o and_o as_o the_o same_o holy_a god_n our_o father_n who_o without_o respect_n of_o person_n judge_v of_o every_o man_n work_n it_o follow_v of_o necessity_n also_o that_o he_o will_v never_o accept_v of_o such_o a_o kind_n of_o holiness_n in_o any_o man_n or_o woman_n whatever_o where_o sin_n or_o evil_n make_v up_o any_o part_n thereof_o though_o here_o also_o if_o in_o our_o holiness_n there_o shall_v not_o be_v any_o tincture_n or_o savour_n of_o sin_n or_o evil_n which_o also_o will_v be_v wash_v away_o in_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lamb_n without_o spot_n and_o blemish_n before_o it_o be_v right_a and_o meet_v for_o the_o acceptance_n of_o god_n we_o may_v be_v indeed_o amaze_v and_o afraid_a and_o ask_v the_o question_n who_o then_o will_v be_v save_v remember_v this_o i_o beseech_v the_o reader_n sin_n must_v in_o no_o wise_n make_v a_o part_n or_o ingredient_n in_o that_o kind_n of_o holiness_n without_o which_o no_o man_n shall_v see_v the_o lord_n or_o if_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n holiness_n at_o the_o best_a have_v a_o tincture_n smell_v or_o taste_v of_o sin_n corruption_n or_o evil_n here_o he_o
