mighty_o tend_v to_o the_o utter_a destruction_n of_o true_a religion_n not_o in_o the_o hypocrite_n for_o in_o he_o it_o have_v no_o place_n at_o all_o but_o in_o the_o very_a world_n itself_o that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o all_o other_o person_n and_o this_o it_o do_v two_o several_a way_n 1._o by_o debauch_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o 2._o by_o bring_v a_o scandal_n upon_o it_o 1._o for_o first_o its_o the_o nature_n of_o hypocrisy_n to_o debauch_v the_o nature_n of_o true_a religion_n by_o turn_v it_o into_o mere_a formality_n into_o nice_a and_o scrupulous_a superstition_n in_o the_o avoid_n or_o in_o the_o practise_n of_o thing_n indifferent_a in_o themselves_o and_o endless_a dispute_n about_o these_o thing_n which_o do_v not_o only_o employ_v man_n mind_n in_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o of_o any_o moment_n and_o take_v they_o off_o from_o the_o study_n and_o practice_n of_o true_a religion_n but_o whole_o destroy_v christian_n charity_n fill_v man_n with_o mutual_a animosity_n and_o by_o their_o mean_n eat_v out_o the_o very_a heart_n of_o piety_n it_o be_v the_o temper_n of_o hypocrisy_n to_o accommodate_v itself_o to_o the_o opinion_n and_o judgement_n of_o man_n the_o generality_n of_o mankind_n look_v no_o far_o than_o to_o the_o show_n and_o surface_n of_o thing_n and_o therefore_o hypocrisy_n concern_v itself_o in_o nothing_o further_o than_o to_o obtain_v the_o applause_n of_o man_n either_o in_o the_o observe_n or_o the_o avoid_n of_o thing_n indifferent_a in_o themselves_o thing_n that_o may_v be_v do_v or_o omit_v unless_o command_v by_o superior_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n while_o it_o be_v think_v sufficient_a on_o one_o hand_n to_o recommend_v a_o man_n to_o god_n if_o he_o abound_v in_o rite_n and_o ceremony_n in_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o outward_a action_n such_o as_o be_v use_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o on_o the_o other_o while_o all_o religion_n be_v place_v in_o avoid_v all_o that_o be_v decent_a in_o appearance_n every_o thing_n that_o be_v call_v a_o ceremony_n and_o a_o man_n must_v certain_o be_v a_o saint_n that_o shall_v defy_v and_o rail_v at_o this_o true_a religion_n be_v almost_o lose_v almost_o forget_v and_o lay_v aside_o in_o the_o noise_n of_o these_o dispute_n and_o quarrel_n 2._o but_o last_o there_o be_v yet_o another_o way_n wherein_o hypocrisy_n dangerous_o tend_v to_o the_o destruction_n of_o true_a religion_n which_o be_v by_o the_o scandal_n which_o it_o bring_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o all_o religion_n for_o although_o it_o be_v very_o true_a indeed_o that_o man_n be_v general_o very_o strange_o charm_v by_o the_o show_v and_o pretence_n of_o religion_n yet_o when_o it_o appear_v as_o it_o do_v at_o last_o where_o it_o be_v not_o real_a that_o all_o these_o show_n be_v void_a of_o truth_n that_o they_o be_v but_o show_v and_o nothing_o more_o this_o make_v the_o very_a name_n of_o religion_n despicable_a odious_a and_o abhor_v it_o bring_v profaneness_n and_o infidelity_n and_o make_v the_o very_a profession_n of_o piety_n vile_a and_o contemptible_a in_o the_o world_n a_o dangerous_a and_o a_o destructive_a issue_n as_o we_o ourselves_o have_v plain_o find_v by_o our_o own_o experience_n in_o this_o nation_n hypocrisy_n be_v but_o a_o counterfeit_a coin_n never_o long_a retain_v its_o credit_n and_o so_o indeed_o it_o happen_v at_o last_o among_o the_o pharisee_n for_o although_o they_o be_v in_o great_a reputation_n among_o the_o jew_n in_o our_o saviour_n time_n yet_o i_o find_v that_o they_o lose_v it_o afterward_o and_o become_v so_o despicable_a in_o the_o nation_n that_o they_o be_v brand_v with_o scurrilous_a name_n some_o they_o call_v sechemitical_a pharisee_n such_o as_o be_v so_o for_o their_o own_o profit_n other_o they_o style_v the_o stumble_a pharisee_n who_o for_o a_o appearance_n of_o humility_n will_v scarce_o lift_v up_o their_o foot_n in_o the_o street_n other_o they_o call_v the_o wound_a pharisee_n who_o shut_v their_o eye_n as_o they_o go_v in_o the_o street_n lest_o they_o shall_v perhaps_o behold_v a_o temptation_n but_o by_o so_o do_v often_o fell_a and_o hurt_v themselves_o other_o they_o style_v the_o boast_a pharisee_n because_o they_o pretend_v not_o only_o to_o do_v whatsoever_o the_o law_n of_o god_n require_v but_o also_o a_o great_a deal_n more_o than_o so_o other_o approbrious_a name_n and_o title_n they_o put_v upon_o some_o other_o sort_n from_o whence_o it_o appear_v that_o they_o do_v at_o last_o lose_v all_o their_o credit_n among_o people_n nor_o need_v we_o question_v that_o even_o true_a religion_n itself_o become_v contemptible_a on_o that_o account_n the_o life_n be_v deride_v for_o the_o deformity_n of_o the_o picture_n the_o truth_n be_v prejudice_v by_o the_o counterfeit_n the_o fault_n and_o baseness_n of_o hypocrisy_n ascribe_v to_o true_a religion_n itself_o and_o this_o i_o take_v to_o be_v one_o reason_n of_o the_o infidelity_n and_o profaneness_n that_o reign_n at_o present_a in_o this_o nation_n god_n of_o his_o mercy_n remove_v the_o scandal_n and_o heal_v the_o distemper_n that_o be_v among_o we_o the_o ten_o sermon_n luk._n 12.1_o beware_v of_o the_o leaven_n of_o the_o pharisee_n which_o be_v hypocrisy_n in_o these_o word_n as_o i_o have_v observe_v there_o be_v these_o two_o thing_n suggest_v to_o we_o 1._o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o evil_a which_o we_o be_v command_v to_o avoid_v this_o i_o have_v already_o finish_v 2._o the_o diligence_n that_o must_v be_v use_v if_o we_o will_v due_o observe_v the_o precept_n intimate_v in_o the_o word_n beware_v which_o show_v it_o be_v no_o such_o easy_a thing_n to_o avoid_v all_o pharisaism_n and_o hypocrisy_n as_o we_o may_v perhaps_o imagine_v it_o be_v and_o for_o the_o clear_n of_o this_o point_n i_o shall_v desire_v you_o to_o observe_v that_o a_o appearance_n of_o religion_n or_o a_o religion_n in_o outward_a show_n void_a of_o the_o true_a spirit_n of_o it_o be_v apt_a to_o recommend_v itself_o and_o strange_o to_o impose_v on_o man_n as_o such_o a_o religion_n which_o be_v
to_o flesh_n and_o blood_n and_o to_o the_o animosity_n which_o they_o have_v against_o the_o person_n of_o other_o man_n to_o brand_v they_o with_o opprobrious_a name_n to_o pour_v contempt_n and_o scorn_n upon_o they_o and_o to_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v religion_n so_o to_o do_v i_o think_v we_o have_v reason_n to_o beware_v of_o such_o a_o dangerous_a vice_n as_o this_o which_o turn_v a_o sin_n into_o religion_n and_o so_o in_o truth_n make_v religion_n a_o contradiction_n unto_o itself_o 3._o one_o thing_n more_o i_o must_v further_o add_v to_o what_o i_o have_v say_v of_o this_o point_n which_o be_v the_o delight_n that_o a_o man_n may_v take_v either_o in_o the_o oppose_a or_o deride_v of_o the_o religion_n of_o other_o person_n and_o the_o great_a opinion_n which_o he_o may_v have_v of_o himself_o for_o this_o which_o yet_o can_v give_v he_o no_o assurance_n that_o he_o be_v not_o a_o hypocrite_n in_o so_o do_v i_o need_v not_o say_v how_o sharp_a and_o eager_a strife_n be_v raise_v about_o religion_n in_o the_o world_n i_o need_v not_o show_v what_o fierce_a debate_n what_o hot_a contention_n there_o be_v about_o it_o and_o have_v be_v in_o all_o former_a age_n these_o be_v know_v and_o evident_a thing_n but_o that_o which_o be_v here_o to_o be_v consider_v be_v that_o the_o zeal_n that_o many_o man_n have_v in_o these_o dispute_v be_v rather_o to_o destroy_v the_o religion_n that_o be_v profess_v by_o other_o person_n than_o set_v up_o another_o instead_o thereof_o it_o be_v to_o subvert_v and_o not_o to_o reform_v it_o be_v to_o overthrow_v and_o not_o amend_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n be_v it_o be_v concern_v about_o religion_n and_o be_v it_o have_v a_o mighty_a passion_n in_o this_o concern_n it_o pass_v for_o religion_n itself_o so_o apt_a be_v man_n to_o mistake_v they_o to_o embrace_v a_o shadow_n instead_o of_o truth_n and_o to_o judge_v themselves_o to_o be_v religious_a for_o a_o negative_a not_o a_o positive_a thing_n for_o be_v against_o the_o religion_n of_o other_o rather_o than_o for_o any_o of_o their_o own_o wherein_o they_o gratify_v their_o own_o passion_n please_v their_o own_o corrupt_a affection_n and_o so_o easy_o suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v deceive_v and_o impose_v upon_o 3._o but_o than_o three_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o as_o hypocrisy_n be_v not_o only_o a_o easy_a religion_n but_o also_o pleasant_a to_o flesh_n and_o blood_n in_o many_o instance_n and_o effect_n so_o that_o it_o also_o powerful_o tend_v to_o serve_v those_o end_n which_o man_n be_v apt_a to_o propound_v and_o follow_v that_o be_v to_o say_v 1._o the_o reputation_n of_o be_v judge_v to_o be_v true_o pious_a 2._o and_o the_o obtain_n of_o wealth_n and_o power_n and_o all_o the_o advantage_n of_o this_o world_n 1._o the_o appearance_n of_o religion_n destitute_a of_o the_o power_n of_o it_o do_v for_o a_o time_n gain_v the_o reputation_n of_o true_a religion_n nay_o more_o reputation_n for_o the_o most_o part_n
