argument_n which_o the_o gospel_n use_v to_o persuade_v man_n and_o encourage_v they_o to_o repentance_n be_v great_a and_o more_o powerful_a by_o so_o much_o be_v the_o impenitence_n of_o those_o who_o live_v under_o the_o gospel_n the_o more_o inexcusable_a have_v we_o only_o some_o faint_a hope_n of_o god_n mercy_n a_o doubtful_a opinion_n and_o weak_a persuasion_n of_o the_o reward_n and_o punishment_n of_o another_o world_n yet_o we_o have_v a_o law_n within_o we_o which_o upon_o the_o probability_n of_o these_o consideration_n will_v oblige_v we_o to_o repentance_n indeed_o if_o man_n be_v assure_v upon_o good_a ground_n that_o there_o will_v be_v no_o future_a reward_n and_o punishment_n then_o the_o sanction_n of_o the_o law_n be_v go_v and_o it_o will_v lose_v its_o force_n and_o obligation_n or_o if_o we_o do_v despair_n of_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n and_o have_v good_a reason_n to_o think_v repentance_n impossible_a or_o that_o it_o will_v do_v we_o no_o good_a in_o that_o case_n there_o will_v be_v no_o sufficient_a motive_n and_o argument_n to_o repentance_n for_o no_o man_n can_v return_v to_o his_o duty_n without_o return_v to_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o goodness_n and_o no_o man_n can_v return_v to_o the_o love_n of_o god_n who_o believe_v that_o he_o bear_v a_o implacable_a hatred_n against_o he_o and_o be_v resolve_v to_o make_v he_o miserable_a for_o ever_o during_o this_o persuasion_n no_o man_n can_v repent_v and_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o devil_n continue_v impenitent_a but_o the_o heathen_n be_v not_o without_o hope_n of_o god_n mercy_n and_o upon_o those_o small_a hope_n which_o they_o have_v they_o encourage_v themselves_o into_o repentance_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o instance_n of_o the_o ninevite_n let_v they_o turn_v every_o one_o from_o his_o evil_a way_n and_o from_o the_o violence_n that_o be_v in_o his_o hand_n who_o can_v tell_v if_o god_n will_v turn_v and_o repent_v and_o turn_v away_o from_o his_o fierce_a anger_n that_o we_o perish_v not_o jonah_n 3.8_o 9_o but_o if_o we_o who_o have_v the_o clear_a discovery_n and_o the_o high_a assurance_n of_o this_o who_o

repentance_n he_o will_v not_o impute_v our_o sin_n to_o we_o if_o we_o to_o who_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n against_o all_o ungodliness_n and_o unrighteousness_n of_o man_n and_o to_o who_o life_n and_o immortality_n be_v bring_v to_o light_n by_o the_o gospel_n if_o after_o all_o this_o we_o still_o go_v on_o in_o any_o impenitent_a course_n what_o shall_v we_o be_v able_a to_o plead_v in_o excuse_n of_o ourselves_o at_o that_o great_a day_n the_o man_n of_o nineveh_n shall_v rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o such_o a_o impenitent_a generation_n and_o condemn_v it_o because_o they_o repent_v upon_o the_o terror_n of_o light_a threaten_n and_o upon_o the_o encouragement_n of_o weak_a hop_n and_o therefore_o it_o concern_v we_o who_o call_v ourselves_o christian_n and_o enjoy_v the_o clear_a revelation_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o look_v about_o we_o and_o take_v heed_n how_o we_o continue_v in_o a_o evil_a course_n for_o if_o we_o
