the_o free_a will_n of_o man_n work_v so_o in_o his_o mind_n and_o heart_n as_o to_o make_v he_o forsake_v and_o renounce_v the_o object_n which_o he_o love_v best_o and_o without_o which_o he_o can_v live_v this_o be_v hard_a to_o god_n if_o i_o may_v speak_v so_o than_o to_o create_v heaven_n and_o earth_n for_o when_o god_n will_v create_v all_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o this_o world_n he_o only_o say_v let_v there_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n and_o present_o it_o be_v create_v but_o when_o he_o will_v convert_v a_o sinner_n and_o will_v have_v he_o to_o forsake_v his_o wickedness_n what_o resistance_n and_o opposition_n do_v he_o not_o find_v notwithstanding_o the_o different_a mean_n he_o make_v use_v of_o for_o oftentimes_o god_n willing_a to_o induce_v a_o sinner_n to_o repent_v of_o his_o sin_n cherish_v he_o as_o a_o nurse_n do_v her_o young_a suck_a child_n and_o as_o a_o good_a husband_n his_o faithful_a wife_n sometime_o he_o threaten_v he_o as_o a_o careful_a father_n threaten_v his_o disobedient_a son_n as_o a_o good_a master_n his_o unruled_a servant_n and_o as_o a_o just_a judge_n his_o guilty_a prisoner_n and_o yet_o his_o cherishing_n and_o threaten_n do_v very_o often_o prove_v vain_a and_o unprofitable_a the_o sinner_n remain_v in_o his_o crime_n and_o will_v not_o repent_v of_o they_o god_n according_a to_o his_o ordinary_a way_n in_o the_o conversion_n of_o a_o sinner_n must_v give_v he_o a_o prevent_a grace_n and_o afterward_o a_o assist_v one_o and_o though_o these_o two_o grace_n be_v sufficient_a for_o a_o true_a and_o sincere_a conversion_n yet_o to_o pass_v from_o power_n to_o act_n he_o must_v needs_o give_v he_o another_o grace_n which_o be_v call_v effectual_a this_o be_v the_o difficulty_n of_o repentance_n consider_v in_o respect_n of_o god_n our_o creator_n but_o it_o be_v more_o hard_a and_o difficult_a if_o we_o consider_v it_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o creature_n for_o a_o man_n who_o get_v a_o great_a store_n of_o good_n by_o a_o unjust_a way_n be_v bind_v to_o restore_v they_o whole_o to_o he_o they_o belong_v to_o for_o as_o sai_z st._n austin_n non_fw-la remittitur_fw-la peccatum_fw-la nisi_fw-la

pain_n and_o what_o difficulty_n do_v he_o not_o find_v when_o he_o take_v resolution_n to_o leave_v they_o and_o this_o difficulty_n be_v the_o great_a if_o he_o be_v a_o old_a sinner_n and_o get_v

to_o do_v evil_a 13._o 23._o we_o see_v that_o every_o day_n by_o our_o own_o experience_n especial_o if_o a_o man_n be_v accustom_v either_o to_o drunkenness_n or_o impurity_n for_o than_o he_o will_v find_v a_o great_a difficulty_n to_o subdue_v and_o forsake_v his_o filthy_a and_o dishonest_a passion_n if_o grace_n invite_v he_o to_o abandon_v his_o sin_n and_o true_o repent_v of_o they_o nature_n present_o oppose_v itself_o and_o give_v he_o a_o quite_o contrary_a mind_n there_o be_v a_o fight_n in_o that_o man_n between_o nature_n and_o grace_n and_o to_o speak_v otherwise_o there_o be_v two_o man_n in_o that_o man_n the_o man_n of_o grace_n and_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n the_o man_n of_o grace_n be_v willing_a to_o forsake_v his_o sin_n and_o repent_v of_o they_o and_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n be_v unwilling_a the_o man_n of_o grace_n speak_v thus_o these_o many_o year_n i_o have_v commit_v sin_n i_o must_v now_o forsake_v they_o with_o all_o the_o guilty_a pleasure_n of_o this_o world_n and_o i_o must_v whole_o consecrate_v myself_o unto_o god_n and_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n say_v what_o will_v thou_o forsake_v those_o delight_n pleasure_n sport_n and_o recreation_n which_o so_o many_o man_n sigh_v after_o and_o with_o so_o great_a a_o passion_n as_o if_o their_o sovereign_a happiness_n be_v true_o consist_v in_o they_o the_o man_n of_o grace_n say_v come_v i_o will_v repent_v and_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n reply_n not_o yet_o not_o now_o stay_v a_o little_a long_o i_o pray_v thou_o to_o make_v it_o short_a there_o be_v a_o wonderful_a battle_n in_o this_o poor_a man_n heart_n and_o mind_n i_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o upon_o a_o ship_n in_o a_o great_a and_o furious_a storm_n for_o as_o this_o ship_n by_o the_o violence_n of_o wave_n go_v sometime_o as_o high_a as_o the_o cloud_n and_o present_o seem_v to_o go_v down_o into_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o sea_n so_o this_o man_n ascend_v into_o heaven_n by_o grace_n and_o descend_v into_o hell_n by_o sin_n what_o strange_a fight_n do_v we_o see_v in_o this_o poor_a and_o miserable_a creature_n what_o difficulty_n do_v he_o not_o find_v when_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o forsake_v his_o sin_n and_o when_o he_o delay_v from_o day_n to_o day_n that_o difficulty_n increase_v for_o two_o reason_n the_o first_o be_v take_v from_o grace_n and_o the_o second_o from_o sin_n the_o reason_n take_v from_o grace_n be_v that_o be_v necessary_a to_o forsake_v sin_n it_o go_v away_o and_o forsake_v the_o creature_n that_o be_v delay_v from_o day_n to_o day_n the_o other_o reason_n take_v from_o sin_n be_v because_o it_o be_v compare_v unto_o a_o young_a tree_n which_o grow_v every_o month_n strong_a and_o strong_a and_o be_v hardly_o pluck_v out_o if_o we_o let_v it_o grow_v several_a year_n for_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o a_o hedgehog_n to_o thrust_v out_o her_o young_n before_o their_o bristle_n be_v grow_v strong_a but_o if_o she_o stay_v too_o long_o she_o shall_v rather_o die_v then_o expel_v they_o out_o of_o their_o hole_n sin_n be_v like_a unto_o a_o hedgehog_n for_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o cast_v it_o out_o of_o our_o heart_n when_o it_o be_v young_a i_o mean_v in_o its_o beginning_n but_o if_o we_o stay_v too_o long_o what_o difficulty_n shall_v we_o not_o find_v to_o pluck_v it_o out_o of_o they_o such_o as_o the_o ethiopian_a in_o change_v his_o skin_n and_o the_o leopard_n his_o spot_n wherefore_o we_o must_v confess_v that_o repentance_n be_v hard_a and_o difficult_a to_o man_n whether_o consider_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o creator_n or_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o creature_n nevertheless_o it_o be_v necessary_a unless_o we_o will_v all_o perish_v and_o this_o i_o be_o go_v to_o show_v you_o in_o the_o second_o part_n of_o my_o discourse_n 2._o part._n this_o man_n who_o be_v send_v from_o god_n to_o bear_v witness_n of_o the_o light_n that_o all_o man_n through_o he_o may_v believe_v this_o man_n i_o mean_v st._n john_n the_o baptist_n begin_v his_o sermon_n by_o this_o necessary_a virtue_n and_o when_o jesus_n christ_n begin_v to_o preach_v he_o begin_v with_o these_o word_n repent_v you_o for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v at_o hand_n these_o two_o example_n will_v be_v sufficient_a to_o convince_v we_o of_o the_o necessity_n of_o repentance_n but_o that_o i_o may_v remove_v all_o doubt_n from_o your_o mind_n i_o will_v prove_v that_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o repent_v of_o our_o sin_n for_o two_o reason_n first_o because_o we_o have_v offend_v god_n who_o be_v our_o father_n and_o second_o because_o if_o we_o do_v not_o repent_v we_o shall_v all_o be_v unhappy_a for_o ever_o that_o god_n be_v our_o father_n all_o christian_n do_v acknowledge_v this_o truth_n for_o as_o often_o as_o they_o say_v the_o lord_n prayer_n they_o confess_v god_n to_o be_v their_o father_n yes_o certain_o god_n be_v our_o father_n since_o he_o make_v and_o create_v we_o and_o to_o speak_v proper_o he_o only_o be_v our_o father_n call_v no_o man_n father_n on_o earth_n for_o one_o be_v your_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n matth._n 23._o 9_o he_o be_v more_o proper_o our_o father_n than_o those_o that_o bring_v we_o into_o the_o world_n because_o he_o not_o only_o concur_v with_o they_o in_o the_o production_n of_o our_o body_n but_o also_o because_o he_o alone_o create_v our_o soul_n and_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o holy_a grace_n whereby_o we_o become_v his_o child_n if_o then_o it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n be_v our_o father_n likewise_o it_o be_v certain_a we_o have_v sin_v against_o he_o two_o different_a way_n positive_o when_o we_o have_v do_v those_o thing_n which_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v do_v and_o negative_o when_o we_o have_v leave_v undo_v those_o thing_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v do_v we_o have_v offend_v he_o in_o our_o heart_n in_o our_o understanding_n by_o our_o tongue_n by_o our_o hand_n foot_n ear_n and_o eye_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o understanding_n we_o have_v sin_v
