certain_o hell_o can_v be_v worse_o hell_n be_v infinite_o worse_a but_o he_o may_v not_o think_v so_o thus_o judas_n be_v desirous_a to_o die_v when_o he_o go_v and_o hang_v himself_o 27.5_o thus_o many_o in_o despair_n do_v make_v away_o themselves_o i_o confess_v some_o in_o despair_n may_v be_v fearful_a to_o die_v as_o cain_n be_v fearful_a to_o die_v it_o be_v fear_n of_o death_n make_v

out_o of_o the_o world_n not_o for_o any_o peace_n of_o conscience_n they_o have_v nor_o for_o any_o desire_n of_o death_n but_o only_o for_o a_o momentany_a pang_n if_o they_o be_v to_o die_v indeed_o they_o will_v be_v loath_a enough_o to_o it_o like_o the_o man_n in_o the_o fable_n who_o be_v weary_v with_o his_o burden_n of_o stick_n lay_v down_o and_o call_v for_o death_n but_o when_o

these_o thing_n the_o reason_n be_v this_o because_o you_o have_v not_o the_o peace_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n it_o will_v find_v sweetness_n in_o every_o good_a duty_n in_o every_o good_a word_n and_o work_n three_o a_o good_a quiet_a conscience_n make_v a_o man_n taste_v sweetness_n in_o all_o outward_a thing_n in_o meat_n in_o drink_n in_o sleep_n in_o the_o company_n of_o friend_n it_o

to_o those_o that_o be_v bedrid_a or_o sick_a or_o half-dead_a but_o when_o the_o conscience_n be_v at_o peace_n the_o soul_n be_v all_o in_o good_a health_n and_o so_o all_o thing_n be_v enjoy_v with_o sweetness_n and_o comfort_n four_o it_o sweeten_v evil_n to_o a_o man_n as_o trouble_n cross_n sorrow_n affliction_n if_o a_o man_n have_v true_a peace_n in_o his_o conscience_n it_o comfort_v

without_o turmoil_n and_o vex_v we_o and_o add_v sorrow_n to_o sorrow_n then_o to_o have_v peace_n within_o the_o peace_n of_o conscience_n to_o allay_v all_o and_o quiet_a all_o what_o a_o happiness_n be_v this_o when_o sickness_n and_o death_n come_v what_o will_v a_o good_a conscience_n be_v worth_a then_o sure_o more_o than_o all_o the_o world_n beside_o if_o one_o have_v all_o the_o world_n he_o will_v then_o give_v it_o for_o a_o peaceable_a conscience_n nay_o what_o think_v you_o of_o judgement_n and_o the_o tribunal_n of_o christ_n do_v but_o think_v what_o a_o good_a

of_o the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n mark_v he_o compare_v it_o to_o a_o shoe_n which_o he_o will_v have_v we_o shod_a with_o and_o than_o it_o will_v be_v the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n to_o we_o and_o our_o peace_n shall_v be_v in_o safety_n four_o our_o peace_n depend_v upon_o our_o obedience_n not_o only_o as_o a_o sign_n of_o true_a peace_n nor_o only_o as_o a_o guard_n to_o it_o but_o as_o a_o thing_n please_v to_o god_n without_o the_o which_o we_o displease_v god_n for_o though_o god_n be_v please_v with_o his_o child_n always_o in_o christ_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o please_v that_o any_o in_o christ_n shall_v be_v disobedient_a to_o he_o 4.1_o you_o have_v receive_v of_o we_o how_o you_o ought_v to_o walk_v and_o to_o please_v god_n say_v the_o apostle_n when_o god_n child_n walk_v in_o obedience_n that_o be_v please_v unto_o god_n so_o that_o peace_n of_o conscience_n do_v great_o depend_v on_o obedience_n for_o otherwise_o conscience_n will_v be_v trouble_v o_o i_o do_v not_o please_v god_n this_o be_v displease_v unto_o god_n and_o this_o do_v provoke_v god_n not_o as_o though_o there_o be_v any_o such_o perfection_n in_o our_o obedience_n that_o can_v satisfy_v any_o tittle_n of_o god_n law_n but_o because_o when_o our_o person_n be_v please_v to_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n than_o our_o obedience_n to_o god_n be_v please_v too_o in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o conscience_n will_v say_v it_o thus_o much_o shall_v suffice_v for_o answer_v to_o the_o second_o question_n iii_o question_n what_o manner_n of_o obedience_n it_o be_v that_o peace_n of_o conscience_n depend_v upon_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o question_n be_v this_o because_o it_o shall_v seem_v there_o be_v no_o such_o obedience_n in_o this_o life_n as_o any_o peace_n of_o conscience_n shall_v depend_v on_o do_v not_o james_n say_v in_o many_o thing_n we_o sin_v all_o do_v not_o our_o saviour_n say_v when_o you_o have_v do_v all_o that_o you_o can_v say_v we_o be_v unprofitable_a servant_n if_o our_o conscience_n can_v still_o say_v that_o we_o be_v unprofitable_a and_o that_o we_o do_v sin_n in_o every_o thing_n that_o we_o do_v yea_o in_o many_o thing_n in_o all_o the_o duty_n we_o go_v about_o if_o our_o conscience_n can_v say_v thus_o how_o can_v any_o peace_n depend_v upon_o obedience_n what_o obedience_n do_v you_o mean_v that_o peace_n of_o conscience_n depend_v upon_o i_o answer_v 1._o absolute_a perfection_n in_o obedience_n be_v not_o require_v unto_o evangelical_a peace_n for_o if_o it_o be_v no_o man_n can_v have_v peace_n no_o not_o paul_n nor_o abraham_n nor_o any_o of_o the_o holy_a of_o god_n child_n and_o therefore_o absolute_a perfection_n be_v not_o require_v if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v not_o sin_v we_o make_v christ_n a_o liar_n and_o his_o word_n be_v not_o in_o we_o 1._o john_n 1.10_o our_o conscience_n can_v still_o say_v we_o have_v sin_v and_o it_o can_v still_o say_v our_o obedience_n be_v imperfect_a a_o halt_a leg_n can_v never_o go_v perfect_o a_o jacob_n be_v call_v he_o that_o halt_v and_o every_o godly_a soul_n halt_v though_o he_o do_v not_o halt_v between_o two_o as_o wicked_a people_n do_v yet_o he_o halt_v in_o follow_v after_o god_n what_o purblind_a eye_n can_v see_v perfect_o or_o thick_a ear_n hear_v perfect_o he_o that_o have_v these_o imperfection_n of_o body_n can_v neither_o go_v nor_o see_v nor_o hear_v perfect_o so_o the_o best_a of_o god_n child_n have_v imperfection_n of_o heart_n and_o spirit_n and_o mind_n their_o faith_n be_v imperfect_a their_o love_n be_v imperfect_a and_o therefore_o their_o obedience_n must_v needs_o be_v imperfect_a but_o absolute_a perfection_n be_v not_o require_v to_o true_a peace_n of_o conscience_n and_o therefore_o this_o do_v not_o hinder_v it_o 2._o though_o absolute_a perfection_n be_v not_o require_v to_o peace_n yet_o such_o obedience_n be_v require_v as_o may_v be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n 5.9_o so_o say_v the_o apostle_n we_o labour_v that_o whether_o present_a or_o absent_a we_o may_v be_v accept_v of_o he_o such_o obedience_n we_o must_v show_v as_o may_v be_v accept_v of_o he_o or_o we_o can_v have_v true_a peace_n if_o our_o endeavour_n be_v not_o acceptable_a our_o conscience_n will_v quick_o hear_v of_o it_o and_o tell_v we_o so_o if_o we_o pray_v cold_o or_o hear_v unprofitable_o or_o live_v loose_o if_o we_o do_v not_o do_v that_o which_o be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n our_o conscience_n will_v soon_o complain_v nay_o though_o we_o do_v do_v the_o duty_n if_o we_o do_v not_o do_v they_o in_o a_o acceptable_a manner_n conscience_n will_v have_v matter_n against_o we_o still_o 3._o this_o acceptablenesse_n of_o obedience_n lie_v in_o this_o when_o our_o obedience_n be_v sincere_a universal_a and_o total_a and_o proceed_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n jesus_n dwell_v in_o we_o the_o apostle_n give_v it_o this_o phrase_n when_o we_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o spirit_n rom._n 8.4_o that_o be_v our_o fulfil_n the_o law_n when_o christ_n have_v fulfil_v the_o law_n for_o we_o and_o make_v we_o sincere_o to_o walk_v by_o it_o not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o spirit_n when_o we_o do_v not_o favour_v ourselves_o in_o one_o lust_n nor_o suffer_v ourselves_o in_o any_o belove_a sin_n but_o whatever_o it_o be_v that_o be_v evil_a our_o conscience_n can_v say_v we_o true_o do_v hate_v it_o and_o labour_n to_o avoid_v it_o whatever_o it_o be_v that_o be_v command_v we_o be_v it_o never_o so_o contrary_a to_o our_o nature_n yet_o our_o conscience_n can_v say_v we_o sincere_o set_v ourselves_o to_o do_v it_o so_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o spirit_n this_o be_v sincerity_n of_o obedience_n and_o this_o be_v require_v unto_o peace_n 4._o this_o sincerity_n of_o obedience_n make_v we_o to_o bewail_v our_o very_a infirmity_n and_o to_o be_v humble_v for_o they_o not_o only_o to_o be_v humble_v for_o great_a sin_n but_o also_o to_o be_v humble_v for_o our_o infirmity_n if_o we_o be_v not_o sound_o humble_v for_o our_o very_a infirmity_n also_o they_o will_v hinder_v the_o peace_n of_o our_o conscience_n we_o can_v have_v no_o peace_n except_o our_o conscience_n can_v witness_v that_o our_o infirmity_n do_v humble_a we_o and_o drive_v we_o to_o christ_n and_o cause_n we_o to_o sue_v out_o a_o pardon_n if_o conscience_n have_v not_o a_o pardon_n seal_v for_o infirmity_n also_o it_o will_v not_o be_v at_o peace_n 17_o christ_n bear_v our_o very_a infirmity_n therefore_o we_o must_v be_v humble_v for_o they_o and_o go_v to_o he_o for_o pardon_n of_o they_o too_o or_o conscience_n will_v not_o be_v at_o peace_n thus_o i_o have_v answer_v also_o this_o three_o question_n iv._o question_n how_o if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o burden_a and_o trouble_a conscience_n what_o must_v he_o do_v to_o be_v free_v from_o it_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o question_n be_v this_o because_o man_n be_v ignorant_a about_o it_o when_o man_n be_v trouble_v in_o conscience_n and_o burden_v a_o little_a that_o way_n present_o they_o daub_v all_o with_o peace_n and_o go_v a_o wrong_a way_n to_o work_v this_o course_n the_o lord_n do_v complain_v of_o in_o the_o false_a prophet_n who_o preach_v too_o much_o peace_n 8.11_o they_o have_v heal_v the_o hurt_n of_o the_o daughter_n of_o my_o people_n slight_o say_v peace_n peace_n when_o there_o be_v no_o peace_n and_o so_o they_o do_v more_o hurt_n than_o good_a like_o a_o chirurgeon_n that_o skin_v the_o wound_n before_o he_o give_v search_v salve_n to_o kill_v the_o matter_n of_o it_o afterward_o it_o break_v out_o worse_o and_o it_o be_v a_o hundred_o to_o one_o but_o it_o will_v cost_v the_o patient_a his_o life_n so_o it_o be_v with_o many_o man_n a_o man_n can_v roar_v a_o little_a for_o his_o sin_n i_o have_v be_v a_o sinner_n and_o what_o shall_v i_o do_v i_o have_v be_v a_o beast_n etc._n

peace_n and_o it_o may_v be_v there_o be_v no_o peace_n to_o he_o yet_o he_o have_v need_n to_o be_v search_v more_o deep_o they_o skin_n the_o wound_n and_o it_o be_v a_o thousand_o to_o one_o but_o

have_v a_o burden_a trouble_a conscience_n what_o must_v such_o a_o man_n do_v to_o be_v free_v from_o it_o i_o answer_v 1._o let_v he_o take_v heed_n that_o he_o meddle_v not_o too_o much_o with_o the_o secret_a will_n of_o god_n
