the_o goodness_n of_o god_n as_o almost_o any_o people_n have_v be_v guilty_a of_o great_a breach_n of_o covenant_n sin_v against_o light_n despite_n do_v to_o the_o spirit_n of_o g●ace_n slight_v of_o and_o neglect_v of_o the_o go●pel_n of_o christ_n have_v scarce_o be_v find_v among_o a_o people_n for_o many_o year_n and_o by_o all_o this_o how_o i●_n god_n dishonour_v to_o have_v his_o gospel_n slight_v and_o turn_v out_o of_o door_n and_o man_n post_n set_v up_o by_o god_n post_n for_o he_o that_o depart_v from_o evil_a thereby_o to_o make_v himself_o a_o prey_n can_v you_o say_v for_o these_o thing_n as_o the_o prophet_n my_o eye_n run_v down_o with_o tear_n and_o for_o these_o thing_n you●_n soul_n mourn_v in_o secret_a i_o will_v only_o put_v it_o to_o your_o conscience_n and_o ask_v your_o soul_n the_o question_n you_o will_v i_o believe_v be_v glad_a to_o get_v on_o the_o other_o side_n of_o this_o storm_n that_o be_v now_o begin_v and_o have_v some_o assurance_n that_o you_o shall_v outlive_v the_o present_a providence_n why_o if_o you_o will_v then_o labour_v to_o get_v some_o of_o the_o mark_n that_o be_v to_o be_v find_v upon_o those_o that_o god_n do_v

the_o question_n home_o to_o your_o own_o soul_n and_o see_v what_o answer_n will_v be_v make_v can_v you_o say_v you_o have_v set_v your_o love_n upon_o god_n and_o christ_n i_o believe_v we_o may_v say_v most_o of_o we_o we_o see_v he_o lovely_a we_o have_v raise_v affection_n and_o desire_n after_o he_o but_o can_v we_o say_v we_o have_v set_v our_o love_n upon_o he_o that_o he_o be_v the_o

live_v up_o to_o that_o direction_n of_o the_o apostle_n set_v your_o affection_n on_o thing_n above_o and_o not_o on_o thing_n on_o the_o earth_n faith_n and_o love_n be_v the_o two_o great_a thing_n that_o distinguish_v a_o saint_n and_o a_o empty_a professor_n now_o what_o say_v you_o do_v you_o love_v he_o if_o your_o heart_n be_v not_o only_o run_v out_o after_o he_o but_o set_v upon_o he_o than_o he_o be_v you_o and_o then_o you_o may_v expect_v he_o will_v look_v after_o your_o preservation_n only_o this_o i_o will_v say_v so●e_a soul_n there_o be_v that_o dare_v not_o say_v they_o love_v god_n they_o have_v a_o great_a many_o doubt_n and_o fea●s_n whether_o they_o do_v true_o love_v god_n or_o no_o and_o therefore_o if_o you_o shall_v ask_v i_o but_o how_o shall_v i_o know_v where_o my_o he●●t_n be_v and_o whether_o i_o have_v thi●_n l●ve_v or_o no_o i_o will_v only_o say_v for_o present_a what_o desire_n be_v the●e_n in_o thou_o after_o acquaintance_n with_o god_n and_o what_o desire_n have_v you_o to_o be_v find_v do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n if_o thou_o can_v say_v above_o all_o thing_n oh_o i_o will_v know_v he_o and_o enjoy_v he_o above_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n i_o be_o jealous_a lest_o i_o shall_v dishonour_v he_o than_o i_o will_v say_v to_o thou_o that_o thou_o have_v ground_n to_o hope_v the_o lord_n have_v circumcise_v thy_o heart_n in_o truth_n to_o love_v he_o but_o 3._o how_o do_v you_o walk_v with_o god_n you_o must_v be_v in_o god_n way_n if_o you_o will_v have_v his_o preservation_n he_o shall_v give_v his_o angel_n charge_v over_o thou_o to_o keep_v thou_o in_o all_o thy_o way_n that_o be_v in_o all_o his_o way_n for_o we_o shall_v have_v no_o way_n but_o god_n way_n all_o our_o way_n shall_v be_v his_o way_n there_o be_v some_o thing_n inconsistent_a with_o the_o walk_n with_o god_n and_o it_o will_v be_v well_o if_o none_o of_o those_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v find_v upon_o our_o soul_n 1._o the_o harbor_v of_o

all_o sin_n if_o thou_o do_v not_o labour_v to_o mortify_v the_o deed_n of_o the_o body_n i_o dare_v pronounce_v thou_o one_o that_o art_n walk_v after_o the_o flesh_n 3._o this_o i_o add_v that_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o one_o that_o stand_v upon_o thy_o w●tch_n thou_o be_v none_o of_o those_o that_o walk_v with_o god_n a_o careless_a professor_n that_o mind_v not_o what_o he_o be_v nor_o what_o

1._o unbelief_n i_o say_v that_o cut_v short_a of_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o mercy_n particular_o in_o such_o a_o day_n as_o this_o if_o you_o will_v be_v carry_v through_o the_o wilderness_n watch_v

now_o consider_v a_o little_a how_o it_o be_v with_o you_o be_v your_o faith_n true_a faith_n or_o be_v it_o not_o security_n be_v it_o not_o presumption_n be_v you_o sure_a it_o be_v faith_n if_o not_o it_o will_v do_v you_o no_o service_n you_o may_v think_v it_o be_v faith_n when_o it_o may_v prove_v somewhat_o else_o it_o may_v prove_v security_n you_o think_v you_o have_v faith_n because_o you_o have_v not_o fear_v i_o tell_v you_o soul_n there_o may_v and_o shall_v be_v a_o awe_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o be_v faith_n as_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o by_o and_o by_o you_o may_v think_v it_o faith_n because_o you_o be_v secure_a and_o not_o much_o affect_v but_o take_v heed_n lest_o it_o shall_v disappoint_v thou_o if_o it_o be_v not_o faith_n it_o may_v lay_v you_o open_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n and_o cut_v you_o short_a of_o be_v one_o of_o the_o escape_v remnant_n as_o well_o as_o any_o thing_n else_o whatever_a if_o you_o have_v true_a faith_n you_o will_v know_v
