come_v down_o unto_o you_o have_v great_a wrath_n so_o i_o may_v say_v when_o offence_n arise_v woe_n wo_n to_o the_o man_n of_o the_o world_n for_o the_o devil_n be_v come_v down_o among_o they_o the_o devil_n hand_n abroad_o offence_n he_o make_v wonderful_a improvement_n of_o they_o they_o be_v his_o weapon_n and_o poison_a arrow_n etc._n etc._n 4_o but_o why_o do_v offence_n fall_v as_o a_o real_a and_o heavy_a judgement_n upon_o the_o world_n reason_n 1._o because_o god_n will_v pour_v out_o his_o wrath_n upon_o the_o obstinate_a sinner_n of_o the_o world_n all_o manner_n of_o way_n he_o make_v the_o word_n a_o vial_n of_o wrath_n to_o they_o their_o mercy_n a_o vial_n of_o wrath_n to_o they_o their_o affliction_n a_o vial_n of_o wrath_n to_o they_o their_o own_o sin_n a_o vial_n of_o wrath_n to_o they_o and_o that_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n may_v come_v upon_o they_o to_o the_o uttermost_a and_o be_v pour_v upon_o they_o all_o manner_n of_o way_n even_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o people_n a_o vial_n of_o wrath_n to_o they_o reason_n 2._o because_o by_o these_o they_o may_v fill_v up_o the_o measure_n of_o their_o iniquity_n god_n have_v a_o measure_n of_o wrath_n fill_v up_o run_v over_o to_o be_v pour_v upon_o the_o ungodly_a of_o the_o world_n one_o day_n and_o they_o have_v a_o measure_n of_o iniquity_n which_o they_o go_v on_o fill_v up_o here_o and_o by_o how_o much_o this_o measure_n of_o iniquity_n be_v fill_v up_o by_o so_o much_o do_v the_o measure_n of_o wrath_n grow_v great_a now_o because_o sinner_n delight_v to_o be_v fill_v up_o this_o measure_n therefore_o they_o shall_v not_o want_v occasion_n but_o even_o god_n himself_o that_o so_o the_o measure_n of_o his_o wrath_n may_v be_v fill_v to_o the_o brim_n will_v lay_v occasion_n before_o they_o by_o leave_v his_o people_n and_o permit_v they_o to_o fall_v that_o so_o the_o sinner_n of_o the_o world_n thereby_o may_v be_v blind_v harden_a make_v more_o notorious_o vile_a and_o so_o have_v the_o measure_n of_o their_o iniquity_n fill_v up_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v observable_a psalm_n 11.6_o that_o god_n rain_v snare_n first_o upon_o the_o wicked_a than_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n and_o a_o horrible_a tempest_n god_n have_v fire_n ay_o but_o first_o god_n will_v rain_v snare_n the_o drunkard_n adulterer_n swearer_n shall_v have_v such_o a_o thing_n lay_v as_o a_o snare_n before_o he_o to_o harden_v he_o make_v he_o more_o vile_a notorious_a incorrigible_a in_o his_o sin_n o_o sinner_n sinner_n take_v heed_n that_o now_o whilst_o god_n be_v rain_v snare_n you_o be_v not_o take_v in_o they_o lest_o god_n fire_n and_o brimstone_n and_o horrible_a tempest_n fall_v upon_o your_o head_n reason_n 3._o because_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o wonderful_a justice_n and_o equity_n that_o when_o offence_n do_v arise_v they_o shall_v fall_v as_o a_o real_a and_o heavy_a judgement_n upon_o the_o world_n why_o why_o because_o the_o world_n without_o any_o respect_n to_o the_o dishonour_n that_o god_n suffer_v by_o they_o or_o the_o reproach_n of_o his_o name_n and_o cause_n watch_v for_o offence_n wish_v for_o they_o desire_v they_o rejoice_v in_o they_o publish_v and_o spread_v they_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o most_o just_a thing_n with_o god_n that_o when_o they_o come_v they_o shall_v fall_v as_o a_o judgement_n upon_o they_o rather_o than_o any_o this_o be_v that_o they_o will_v have_v and_o therefore_o let_v they_o take_v they_o and_o the_o woe_n of_o they_o drunkard_n swearer_n formal_a professor_n thou_o will_v have_v offence_n arise_v they_o be_v meat_n and_o drink_n to_o thou_o lo_o say_v god_n here_o they_o be_v take_v they_o and_o the_o woe_n of_o they_o for_o it_o be_v thou_o thou_o have_v long_v to_o see_v they_o here_o they_o be_v thou_o shall_v have_v thy_o belly_n full_a of_o they_o in_o the_o end_n reason_n 4._o because_o god_n as_o in_o all_o other_o thing_n so_o also_o in_o the_o very_a rise_n and_o issue_n of_o offence_n will_v put_v a_o manifest_a difference_n betwixt_o his_o own_o child_n and_o the_o man_n of_o the_o world_n offence_n come_v to_o both_o but_o not_o to_o both_o alike_o offence_n to_o the_o godly_a they_o be_v as_o the_o rod_n of_o a_o father_n for_o correction_n to_o the_o world_n as_o the_o rod_n of_o a_o enemy_n for_o destruction_n to_o the_o godly_a they_o bring_v honey_n in_o the_o tail_n of_o they_o to_o the_o world_n a_o poisonous_a deadly_a sting_n a_o manifest_a difference_n to_o the_o one_o they_o be_v seem_v judgement_n but_o real_a mercy_n to_o the_o other_o they_o be_v seem_v approbation_n of_o their_o way_n and_o course_n but_o real_a judgement_n upon_o their_o person_n soul_n and_o body_n for_o ever_o if_o god_n prevent_v not_o 5_o but_o if_o such_o a_o woe_n come_v upon_o the_o world_n by_o offence_n how_o may_v i_o come_v to_o know_v that_o so_o it_o may_v be_v prevent_v when_o the_o world_n be_v just_o offend_v and_o so_o offend_v as_o thereby_o in_o danger_n of_o this_o dreadful_a woe_n answ_n 1._o the_o world_n be_v just_o offend_v when_o professor_n by_o principle_n which_o they_o hold_v or_o maintain_v do_v put_v out_o

their_o principle_n extinguish_v and_o blot_v out_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n then_o be_v the_o world_n just_o offend_v second_o when_o professor_n in_o their_o practice_n swerve_v from_o the_o

the_o unregenerate_a and_o unmortified_a part_n that_o be_v in_o every_o one_o of_o we_o be_v carry_v up_o by_o the_o lord_n jesus_n upon_o the_o cross_n and_o there_o do_v receive_v a_o deadly_a

to_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n by_o suffer_v in_o that_o nature_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v rom._n 8.3_o what_o the_o law_n can_v not_o do_v in_o that_o it_o be_v weak_a through_o the_o flesh_n god_n send_v his_o son_n in_o the_o likeness_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n for_o sin_n condemn_a sin_n in_o the_o flesh_n christ_n take_v the_o likeness_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n and_o by_o death_n condemn_v sin_n in_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v do_v give_v a_o blow_n to_o sin_n in_o the_o flesh_n in_o the_o humane_a nature_n that_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v rom._n 6.6_o that_o our_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v with_o he_o christ_n take_v it_o up_o upon_o the_o cross_n with_o he_o and_o give_v it_o a_o mortal_a wound_n now_o faith_n do_v discover_v this_o to_o the_o soul_n when_o the_o soul_n find_v sin_n struggle_v and_o strive_v within_o then_o say_v faith_n this_o sin_n strive_v be_v a_o part_n of_o that_o body_n of_o death_n that_o be_v in_o the_o saint_n now_o o_o my_o soul_n look_v up_o upon_o the_o cross_n and_o see_v that_o body_n of_o death_n die_v therefore_o o_o my_o soul_n go_v out_o against_o it_o and_o so_o faith_n encourage_v the_o soul_n to_o go_v out_o against_o sin_n 2_o as_o faith_n show_v the_o soul_n sin_n crucify_v with_o christ_n so_o it_o show_v the_o soul_n that_o the_o design_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n in_o give_v a_o mortal_a blow_n to_o the_o old_a man_n and_o body_n of_o death_n upon_o the_o cross_n it_o be_v this_o the_o weaken_n of_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o subdue_a of_o it_o in_o the_o saint_n that_o sin_n may_v be_v so_o dispowr_v that_o it_o may_v not_o reign_v nor_o rule_v in_o the_o saint_n but_o be_v continual_o in_o a_o decline_a languish_a condition_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v rom._n 6.6_o our_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v with_o he_o that_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v destroy_v he_o do_v not_o say_v it_o be_v destroy_v present_o christ_n take_v it_o up_o upon_o the_o cross_n give_v it_o a_o mortal_a wound_n that_o it_o may_v be_v destroy_v in_o order_n to_o the_o destruction_n that_o have_v the_o power_n break_v the_o saint_n may_v the_o more_o easy_o get_v power_n over_o it_o as_o a_o enemy_n that_o be_v already_o wound_v though_o a_o giant_n be_v easy_o overcome_v so_o though_o sin_n be_v strong_a as_o a_o giant_n jesus_n christ_n have_v wound_v sin_n therefore_o his_o strength_n be_v take_v away_o be_v the_o more_o easy_o subdue_v faith_n show_v the_o soul_n christ_n say_v faith_n what_o do_v christ_n give_v sin_n a_o mortal_a wound_n that_o it_o may_v be_v destroy_v o_o then_o let_v not_o sin_n live_v o_o then_o sin_n shall_v not_o live_v in_o i_o 3_o faith_n show_v the_o soul_n that_o there_o be_v a_o continual_a stream_v forth_o of_o

with_o sin_n paul_n when_o he_o be_v contend_v with_o this_o old_a man_n when_o he_o cry_v out_o o_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o rom._n 7.24_o present_o he_o cast_v his_o eye_n upon_o jesus_n

in_o call_v out_o the_o soul_n to_o the_o promise_n of_o mortification_n we_o have_v a_o promise_n of_o mortification_n rom._n 6.14_o sin_n shall_v not_o have_v dominion_n over_o you_o for_o you_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n the_o soul_n that_o live_v by_o faith_n when_o it_o find_v sin_n strong_a it_o take_v hold_v of_o the_o promise_n and_o go_v to_o christ_n and_o say_v lord_n thou_o have_v say_v sin_n shall_v not_o have_v dominion_n over_o i_o behold_v here_o be_v such_o and_o such_o a_o corruption_n too_o hard_o for_o i_o lord_n behold_v here_o be_v thy_o

then_o come_v and_o fight_v against_o sin_n and_o that_o be_v the_o matter_n we_o be_v so_o often_o foil_v with_o sin_n because_o we_o try_v to_o combat_v with_o sin_n before_o we_o go_v to_o the_o
