we_o be_v save_o enlighten_v or_o no._n for_o if_o we_o be_v enlighten_v and_o quicken_v if_o we_o be_v bring_v to_o the_o sight_n of_o our_o secret_a corruption_n and_o to_o amendment_n than_o it_o be_v a_o comfortable_a sign_n that_o we_o be_v save_o enlighten_v otherwise_o we_o remain_v in_o darkness_n unto_o this_o hour_n the_o three_o degree_n whereby_o regeneration_n be_v most_o usual_o wrought_v be_v contrition_n thus_o when_o those_o three_o thousand_o be_v convert_v by_o peter_n sermon_n act_v 2._o 37._o it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o be_v prick_v in_o their_o heart_n and_o the_o city_n sinner_n when_o she_o be_v regenerate_v she_o stand_v behind_o christ_n at_o his_o foot_n weep_v luke_n 7._o 38._o the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v of_o peter_n and_o diverse_a other_o where_o also_o it_o be_v careful_o to_o be_v observe_v that_o the_o very_a reprobate_n may_v have_v a_o kind_n of_o sorrow_n and_o may_v hang_v down_o their_o head_n like_o a_o bulrush_n for_o a_o time_n isaiah_n 58._o 5._o be_v it_o such_o a_o fast_o that_o i_o require_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v afflict_v his_o soul_n for_o a_o day_n etc._n etc._n but_o the_o difference_n be_v first_o the_o elect_a mourn_n for_o the_o offence_n against_o god_n as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o example_n of_o david_n psal_n 51._o 4._o against_o thou_o against_o thou_o only_o have_v i_o sin_v but_o the_o reprobate_n mourn_v especial_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o punishment_n as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o example_n of_o pharaoh_n exodus_fw-la 9_o 27._o who_o when_o he_o see_v the_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o he_o and_o upon_o his_o land_n can_v then_o confess_v with_o a_o seem_a sorrow_n that_o he_o and_o his_o people_n be_v wicked_a second_o the_o elect_a mourn_n with_o a_o godly_a sorrow_n unto_o repentance_n not_o to_o be_v repent_v of_o as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o example_n of_o the_o corinthian_n 2._o cor._n 7._o 10_o but_o the_o reprobate_a sorrow_n with_o a_o worldly_a sorrow_n that_o cause_v death_n three_o the_o elect_a mourn_n but_o with_o some_o ground_n of_o hope_n for_o they_o know_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o their_o sorrow_n that_o their_o sin_n be_v not_o great_a than_o can_v be_v forgive_v unless_o it_o be_v in_o case_n of_o temptation_n they_o know_v also_o that_o god_n mercy_n be_v great_a than_o their_o sin_n and_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v able_a to_o wash_v they_o from_o all_o iniquity_n and_o so_o by_o these_o general_a ground_n at_o the_o least_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o their_o sorrow_n they_o sustain_v their_o heart_n in_o some_o degree_n of_o hope_n but_o the_o reprobate_a mourn_n as_o man_n quite_o bereave_v of_o all_o hope_n think_v their_o sin_n to_o be_v great_a than_o can_v be_v forgive_v and_o hereby_o also_o we_o may_v try_v ourselves_o whether_o we_o have_v save_o sorrow_v for_o sin_n or_o no._n for_o if_o we_o have_v sorrow_v for_o the_o sin_n as_o well_o as_o for_o the_o punishment_n and_o if_o we_o have_v sorrow_v to_o repentance_n and_o amendment_n and_o last_o if_o we_o have_v sorrow_v in_o hope_n it_o be_v a_o good_a sign_n that_o our_o sorrow_n be_v true_a otherwise_o our_o sorrow_n be_v not_o the_o true_a sorrow_n of_o the_o convert_v but_o rather_o the_o worldly_a sorrow_n of_o the_o wicked_a the_o four_o degree_n whereby_o regeneration_n be_v common_o wrought_v be_v the_o spiritual_a hunger_n and_o thirst_n after_o righteousness_n the_o convert_n soul_n thirst_v and_o pant_v after_o christ_n as_o the_o heart_n bray_v after_o the_o river_n of_o water_n 1._o if_o god_n will_v give_v riches_n honour_n pleasure_n and_o not_o christ_n they_o will_v be_v account_v as_o dung_n and_o dross_n phil._n 3._o 7._o and_o the_o child_n of_o god_n thirst_v after_o christ_n not_o only_o in_o respect_n of_o his_o benefit_n and_o to_o serve_v his_o own_o turn_n but_o also_o out_o of_o love_n to_o christ_n his_o person_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o excellency_n whereupon_o the_o church_n be_v say_v to_o be_v sick_a of_o love_n to_o christ_n cant._n 5._o 8._o and_o to_o this_o degree_n no_o reprobate_n in_o the_o world_n attain_v for_o to_o love_n christ_n for_o himself_o and_o to_o love_v his_o glorious_a appear_v be_v peculiar_a to_o the_o elect_a and_o to_o such_o as_o shall_v receive_v the_o crown_n of_o righteousness_n 2._o tim._n 4._o 6._o second_o as_o the_o true_a convert_v thirst_v after_o christ_n so_o likewise_o he_o long_v after_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o 3000_o in_o act_n 2._o 42._o who_o present_o upon_o their_o conversion_n continue_v in_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n and_o fellowship_n and_o break_v of_o bread_n and_o prayer_n now_o the_o reprobate_n and_o wicked_a may_v attain_v a_o kind_n of_o desire_n after_o the_o word_n but_o it_o be_v either_o with_o eve_n mere_o to_o get_v knowledge_n or_o with_o simon_n magus_n to_o make_v gain_n or_o with_o the_o pharisee_fw-mi to_o get_v a_o name_n or_o with_o the_o carnal_a gospeler_n among_o the_o corinthian_n for_o affectation_n to_o the_o person_n of_o he_o that_o deliver_v it_o or_o if_o it_o be_v for_o any_o taste_n of_o sweetness_n which_o they_o find_v in_o the_o word_n than_o that_o taste_n last_v but_o for_o a_o season_n as_o the_o fantastic_a jew_n can_v rejoice_v in_o john_n baptist_n light_n for_o a_o season_n joh._n 5._o 35._o whereas_o the_o true_a convert_v love_v the_o word_n for_o itself_o and_o continue_v in_o the_o study_n of_o it_o and_o endeavour_n to_o attain_v save_v grace_n by_o it_o labour_v to_o bring_v forth_o the_o fruit_n in_o holy_a practice_n the_o sift_n degree_n whereby_o regeneration_n be_v common_o wrought_v be_v by_o decline_v from_o sin_n for_o so_o soon_o as_o any_o soul_n be_v convert_v to_o god_n and_o make_v partaker_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n present_o it_o begin_v to_o distaste_v sin_n and_o to_o strive_v against_o it_o even_o paul_n so_o soon_o as_o he_o be_v convert_v he_o cease_v persecute_v god_n church_n act._n 9_o the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v of_o zaccheus_n and_o diverse_a other_o where_o we_o must_v note_v that_o the_o reprobate_n and_o wicked_a may_v abstain_v from_o many_o sin_n as_o well_o as_o the_o true_a convert_v as_o appear_v by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o pharisee_fw-mi luk._n 18._o 11._o i_o thank_v god_n i_o be_o not_o as_o other_o man_n extortioner_n unjust_a adulterer_n etc._n etc._n but_o the_o difference_n be_v the_o true_a convert_n decline_v from_o sin_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n of_o god_n he_o be_v wash_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o our_o god_n 1._o cor._n 6._o 10._o 11_o but_o the_o wicked_a abstain_v only_o by_o the_o restrain_v spirit_n as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o example_n of_o abimelech_n gen._n 20._o 6._o i_o have_v keep_v thou_o etc._n etc._n second_o the_o true_a convert_v be_v content_a to_o part_v with_o all_o his_o sin_n even_o with_o his_o belove_a sin_n as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o example_n of_o david_n psal_n 119._o 101_o i_o have_v refrain_v my_o foot_n from_o every_o evil_a way_n but_o the_o wicked_a person_n be_v like_o herod_n he_o will_v not_o part_v with_o his_o herodias_n or_o darling_n sin_n mark_n 6._o 20._o three_o the_o true_a convert_v forsake_v sin_n for_o conscience_n sake_n as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o example_n of_o joseph_n genes_n 39_o how_o shall_v i_o do_v this_o great_a wickedness_n and_o sin_n against_o god_n whereas_o the_o wicked_a shun_v sin_n not_o for_o conscience_n but_o either_o for_o fear_v of_o man_n or_o for_o fear_n of_o shame_n or_o for_o fear_n of_o hell_n or_o in_o respect_n of_o save_v charge_n or_o the_o like_a as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o example_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n who_o will_v fain_o have_v be_v meddle_v with_o christ_n but_o they_o do_v forbear_v howbeit_o not_o for_o conscience_n sake_n but_o for_o fear_n of_o the_o people_n 46_o let_v all_o christian_n examine_v themselves_o by_o these_o difference_n whether_o their_o decline_v from_o sin_n be_v the_o right_a decline_a or_o no._n the_o six_o degree_n whereby_o regeneration_n be_v wrought_v and_o perfect_v be_v full_a assurance_n of_o god_n favour_n for_o when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v in_o some_o good_a measure_n sanctify_v the_o heart_n &_o make_v it_o pliable_a to_o god_n will_v in_o universal_a obedience_n than_o it_o become_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n cry_v abba_n father_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o testify_v together_o with_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n rom._n 8._o 15._o 16._o where_o we_o must_v also_o note_v that_o the_o very_a wicked_a may_v have_v a_o kind_n of_o persuasion_n of_o god_n favour_n towards_o they_o as_o they_o seem_v to_o have_v in_o 1._o thess_n 5._o 3_o which_o cry_v peace_n and_o
