quicken_v to_o obedience_n as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n find_v it_o in_o himself_o when_o he_o say_v the_o love_n of_o christ_n constrain_v we_o 5.14_o 2_o cor._n 5.14_o since_o none_o can_v

follow_v from_o hence_o that_o every_o believer_n and_o therein_o a_o lover_n of_o christ_n will_v find_v himself_o sensible_o stir_v with_o the_o hatred_n of_o sin_n as_o often_o as_o he_o reflect_v

according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n 8.9_o rom._n 8.9_o you_o be_v not_o in_o the_o flesh_n but_o in_o the_o spirit_n i._n e._n you_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o

imply_v that_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n proper_a business_n to_o mortify_v sin_n there_o be_v no_o true_a life_n without_o it_o so_o that_o put_v all_o this_o together_o since_o 1._o god_n pardon_v sin_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o high_a expression_n of_o love_n imaginable_a 4.10_o 1._o joh._n 4.10_o as_o the_o apostle_n john_n cry_v out_o herein_o be_v love_n i._o e._n love_n to_o a_o hyperbole_n love_n beyond_o any_o degree_n of_o comparison_n not_o that_o we_o love_v god_n but_o that_o he_o love_v we_o and_o send_v his_o son_n to_o be_v the_o propitiation_n of_o our_o sin_n 2._o since_o this_o expression_n of_o love_n on_o god_n part_n can_v be_v embrace_v by_o faith_n on_o we_o but_o it_o must_v needs_o beget_v love_n again_o as_o the_o sun_n beam_n can_v fix_v themselves_o direct_o upon_o the_o earth_n but_o they_o will_v convey_v warmth_n and_o heat_n together_o with_o themselves_o 3._o since_o wherever_o love_n be_v engender_v it_o be_v always_o active_a carry_v out_o the_o soul_n with_o unquiet_a long_n after_o union_n with_o and_o till_o that_o can_v be_v compass_v of_o likeness_n to_o the_o object_n it_o love_v as_o the_o earth_n no_o soon_o

always_o actuate_a and_o blow_v up_o this_o love_n and_o improve_n the_o strength_n of_o it_o especial_o in_o the_o subdue_a of_o sin_n upon_o this_o consideration_n because_o sin_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n and_o to_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n from_o hence_o it_o demonstrable_o follow_v that_o the_o best_a way_n to_o mortify_v sin_n be_v right_o to_o conceive_v of_o the_o freeness_n of_o god_n grace_n in_o pardon_v it_o use_v this_o may_v serve_v to_o show_v we_o the_o true_a nature_n of_o justify_v faith_n to_o think_v as_o perhaps_o some_o careless_a man_n do_v that_o faith_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o confident_a persuasion_n that_o our_o sin_n be_v pardon_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o christ_n without_o any_o other_o notable_a effect_n upon_o we_o this_o be_v at_o the_o best_a a_o ungrounded_a fancy_n which_o will_v in_o the_o end_n deceive_v we_o from_o what_o i_o have_v say_v it_o may_v appear_v that_o true_a justifyfy_a faith_n carry_v along_o with_o it_o these_o two_o inseparable_a effect_n 1._o it_o pacify_v the_o conscience_n it_o beget_v a_o calm_a within_o when_o a_o sinner_n first_o begin_v to_o be_v trouble_v for_o sin_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o earthquake_n and_o tempest_n in_o the_o soul_n as_o god_n say_v of_o the_o wicked_a that_o he_o have_v no_o peace_n but_o he_o be_v like_o a_o trouble_a sea_n which_o can_v rest_v 57.19_o isa_n 57.19_o a_o wicked_a man_n be_v not_o more_o eager_a and_o impatient_a to_o commit_v sin_n than_o he_o be_v trouble_v and_o disquiet_v after_o it_o for_o whenever_o

the_o law_n complain_v and_o god_n sentence_v within_o conscience_n accuse_v and_o sin_n condemn_v in_o this_o tumult_n and_o hurry_n of_o thought_n if_o there_o be_v but_o drop_v into_o any_o so_o much_o strength_n of_o faith_n as_o to_o lay_v fast_o hold_v upon_o god_n general_a pardon_n like_a easther_n catch_v at_o the_o golden_a sceptre_n when_o it_o be_v stretch_v out_o to_o she_o

creation_n night_n do_v precede_v day_n so_o in_o conversion_n darkness_n and_o ignorance_n do_v precede_v the_o enlightning_n of_o faith_n and_o doubt_v like_o a_o mist_n do_v still_o attend_v it_o because_o our_o faith_n like_o our_o knowledge_n in_o this_o life_n neither_o be_v nor_o can_v be_v perfect_a for_o than_o it_o will_v no_o long_o be_v faith_n but_o fruition_n yet_o this_o doubt_v which_o like_o a_o alloy_n god_n suffer_v to_o be_v mix_v with_o the_o strong_a wine_n of_o faith_n need_v not_o at_o all_o disturb_v our_o peace_n of_o conscience_n but_o rather_o be_v leave_v as_o

arrive_v to_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o profession_n till_o sin_n be_v mortify_v in_o he_o or_o in_o the_o apostle_n word_n till_o he_o be_v dead_a to_o sinne._n doct._n 1_o the_o first_o point_n be_v that_o god_n grace_n in_o pardon_v sin_n be_v absolute_a free_a and_o unconditionall_a i_o mean_v respect_v nothing_o in_o require_v nothing_o from_o the_o creature_n as_o that_o which_o may_v merit_v and_o deserve_v such_o favour_n thus_o all_o the_o promise_v run_v i_o will_v take_v they_o say_v god_n speak_v of_o the_o new_a covenant_n or_o gospell-time_n to_o be_v my_o people_n and_o i_o will_v

lord_n take_v away_o all_o iniquity_n and_o receive_v we_o gracious_o to_o which_o god_n present_o reply_v 4._o vers_fw-la 4._o i_o will_v heal_v their_o backslide_n i_o will_v love_v they_o free_o but_o beside_o what_o may_v be_v deduce_v from_o the_o whole_a tenor_n and_o current_n of_o scripture-promises_a this_o will_v yet_o far_o appear_v from_o these_o three_o consideration_n reason_n 1_o first_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n who_o pardon_v sin_n who_o can_v be_v move_v or_o alter_v by_o any_o condition_n in_o the_o creature_n since_o he_o himself_o be_v the_o sole_a author_n and_o bestower_n of_o whatever_o good_a condition_n the_o creature_n be_v able_a to_o perform_v for_o according_a to_o the_o question_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n 11.33_o rom._n 11.33_o who_o have_v first_o give_v unto_o he_o and_o it_o shall_v be_v recompense_v to_o he_o again_o or_o as_o the_o word_n be_v in_o job_n from_o whence_o the_o apostle_n take_v they_o 41.11_o job_n 41.11_o who_o have_v prevent_v i_o sc_n by_o do_v for_o i_o that_o i_o shall_v repay_v he_o hereby_o intimate_v that_o none_o have_v or_o be_v able_a so_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n for_o god_n as_o that_o he_o shall_v thereby_o challenge_v any_o thing_n from_o he_o by_o way_n of_o recompense_n as_o the_o word_n follow_v in_o that_o place_n imply_v for_o whatever_o be_v under_o the_o whole_a heaven_n be_v i_o when_o therefore_o the_o holy_a man_n do_v beg_v pardon_n of_o sin_n their_o final_a resort_n be_v to_o god_n mercy_n or_o power_n as_o moses_n when_o he_o intercede_v for_o israel_n and_o now_o let_v the_o power_n of_o my_o lord_n be_v great_a 14.17_o numb_a 14.17_o according_a as_o thou_o have_v speak_v say_v the_o lord_n be_v long_o suffer_v and_o of_o great_a mercy_n forgive_a iniquity_n and_o transgression_n and_o so_o he_o go_v on_o forgive_v i_o pray_v thou_o the_o iniquity_n of_o this_o people_n according_a to_o the_o greatness_n of_o thy_o mercy_n 7.18.19_o mic._n 7.18.19_o so_o the_o prophet_n micah_n who_o be_v a_o god_n like_o unto_o thou_o that_o pardon_v iniquity_n and_o pass_v by_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o remnant_n of_o his_o heritage_n because_o he_o delight_v in_o mercy_n whereas_o do_v consideration_n of_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o creature_n move_v god_n to_o show_v compassion_n forgiveness_n from_o he_o will_v no_o long_o be_v grace_n but_o debt_n and_o god_n in_o pardon_v sin_n will_v not_o exert_v a_o act_n of_o power_n but_o a_o act_n of_o justice_n and_o man_n may_v challenge_v not_o only_o pardon_v of_o sin_n but_o likewise_o heaven_n itself_o as_o a_o reward_n of_o their_o performance_n which_o be_v quite_o contrary_a to_o the_o whole_a current_n of_o scripture_n and_o to_o all_o those_o conception_n which_o the_o majesty_n and_o greatness_n of_o god_n together_o with_o the_o vileness_n and_o despicable_a meanness_n of_o the_o creature_n must_v needs_o enforce_v upon_o all_o rational_a and_o considerate_a men._n since_o therefore_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n run_v absolute_o since_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n be_v inalterable_o i._n e._n free_o gracious_a they_o neither_o consult_v god_n honour_n nor_o the_o comfort_n of_o doubt_v christian_n who_o interpose_v the_o clog_n of_o any_o precede_a condition_n they_o be_v very_o unfaithful_a ambassador_n to_o the_o king_n of_o heaven_n who_o straighten_v their_o commission_n and_o speak_v peace_n and_o pardon_n in_o term_n less_o general_a than_o they_o have_v receive_v reason_n 2_o second_o this_o will_v appear_v yet_o far_o from_o consideration_n of_o the_o price_n which_o be_v pay_v for_o sinne._n for_o though_o god_n pardon_v sin_n free_o in_o reference_n to_o we_o since_o we_o neither_o do_v nor_o can_v deserve_v it_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o free_a in_o
