that_o shall_v open_v man_n eye_n shall_v shut_v they_o and_o when_o those_o mean_n that_o shall_v soften_v man_n heart_n shall_v harden_v they_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n that_o this_o be_v not_o the_o case_n of_o any_o of_o we_o if_o what_o shall_v convince_v humble_a and_o reform_v we_o take_v no_o other_o effect_n upon_o we_o but_o that_o we_o be_v so_o much_o the_o worse_o the_o more_o

when_o the_o day_n of_o reckon_n come_v how_o dreadful_a and_o intolerable_a will_v the_o sentence_n of_o condemnation_n to_o be_v pronounce_v against_o we_o be_v when_o the_o mean_v we_o have_v enjoy_v shall_v rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o we_o and_o our_o mercy_n shall_v condemn_v we_o 4._o as_o the_o most_o necessary_a and_o important_a work_n that_o we_o have_v to_o dispatch_v be_v limit_v to_o a_o certain_a time_n and_o the_o duration_n of_o that_o time_n be_v in_o divers_a respect_n very_o uncertain_a so_o not_o to_o have_v improve_v that_o time_n but_o to_o have_v

most_o deplorable_a and_o dismal_a thing_n how_o affectionate_o do_v our_o saviour_n weep_v over_o jerusalem_n in_o this_o respect_n 42._o luke_n 19.41_o 42._o say_v if_o thou_o have_v know_v even_o thou_o in_o this_o thy_o day_n the_o thing_n that_o belong_v to_o thy_o peace_n but_o now_o they_o be_v hide_v from_o thy_o eye_n when_o mercy_n be_v offer_v she_o and_o she_o be_v earnest_o

of_o it_o to_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v never_o have_v the_o like_a offer_v any_o more_o the_o day_n of_o grace_n with_o they_o be_v run_v out_o once_o for_o all_o and_o shall_v never_o never_o be_v recall_v no_o more_o opportunity_n of_o make_v their_o peace_n with_o god_n to_o eternity_n the_o unite_a prayer_n of_o all_o the_o saint_n in_o the_o church_n militant_a and_o triumphant_a if_o they_o shall_v all_o join_v together_o in_o such_o a_o suit_n can_v not_o obtain_v the_o offer_n of_o mercy_n for_o the_o space_n of_o one_o hour_n for_o any_o final_o impenitent_a sinner_n he_o have_v sin_v away_o his_o mercy_n and_o it_o be_v utter_o impossible_a that_o he_o shall_v recover_v what_o he_o have_v wilful_o deprive_v himself_o of_o lament_v his_o loss_n he_o may_v and_o rue_v

person_n shall_v be_v dreadful_o heighten_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o the_o mercy_n that_o have_v be_v offer_v they_o which_o they_o have_v so_o wretched_o slight_v and_o reject_v the_o gospel_n itself_o full_o and_o clear_o represent_v to_o we_o what_o a_o direful_a aggravation_n of_o their_o punishment_n this_o will_v be_v we_o have_v three_o severe_a and_o most_o remarkable_a scripture_n to_o this_o purpose_n this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n that_o be_v 3.19_o joh._n 3.19_o the_o most_o sore_a and_o dreadful_a condemnation_n that_o light_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o man_n

their_o misery_n be_v this_o that_o the_o thought_n of_o mercy_n once_o offer_v and_o reject_v and_o of_o their_o have_v wilful_o make_v themselves_o eternal_o miserable_a when_o they_o be_v in_o a_o capacity_n of_o be_v eternal_o happy_a if_o they_o have_v not_o stand_v in_o their_o own_o light_n and_o be_v want_v to_o themselves_o i_o say_v the_o thought_n hereof_o will_v be_v in_o their_o conscience_n a_o never-dying_a worm_n to_o torment_v they_o with_o unspeakable_a anguish_n to_o eternity_n so_o dismal_a and_o deplorable_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v not_o to_o have_v improve_v the_o time_n and_o opportunity_n afford_v we_o for_o make_v our_o peace_n with_o god_n and_o so_o much_o concern_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o must_v redeem_v the_o time_n i_o now_o proceed_v to_o the_o application_n which_o be_v the_o last_o thing_n to_o be_v speak_v to_o and_o here_o use_v 1._o 1._o if_o time_n be_v upon_o so_o many_o account_n to_o be_v redeem_v to_o be_v redeem_v especial_o for_o heavenly_a thing_n and_o to_o be_v improve_v for_o the_o good_a of_o our_o soul_n what_o may_v they_o think_v of_o themselves_o who_o make_v little_a other_o use_n of_o their_o time_n than_o to_o

it_o be_v for_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o their_o lust_n for_o gratify_v their_o corruption_n for_o glut_v themselves_o with_o sinful_a pleasure_n and_o sensual_a delight_n for_o heap_v up_o sin_n upon_o sin_n for_o fill_v up_o the_o measure_n of_o their_o provocation_n and_o make_v themselves_o ripe_a for_o judgement_n that_o spend_v their_o time_n in_o excess_n and_o intemperance_n in_o riot_n and_o drunkenness_n in_o chamber_v and_o wantonness_n in_o set_v their_o mouth_n against_o heaven_n in_o belch_a out_o horrid_a oath_n and_o blasphemy_n in_o scoff_v at_o religion_n and_o deride_v piety_n that_o make_v it_o their_o business_n to_o sow_v the_o principle_n of_o atheism_n and_o to_o scatter_v the_o seed_n of_o irreligion_n and_o profaneness_n in_o all_o place_n and_o company_n where_o they_o come_v to_o seduce_v poison_n and_o corrupt_v all_o they_o meet_v with_o and_o to_o make_v they_o twofold_a more_o the_o child_n of_o hell_n than_o themselves_o o_o how_o many_o such_o wicked_a instrument_n such_o agitator_n for_o hell_n and_o factor_n for_o the_o devil_n have_v our_o time_n produce_v how_o do_v city_n and_o country_n abound_v with_o they_o and_o what_o swarm_v of_o they_o be_v there_o to_o be_v find_v in_o all_o quarter_n of_o the_o land_n though_o such_o as_o these_o come_v seldom_o to_o the_o house_n of_o god_n yet_o in_o regard_n they_o sometime_o drop_v in_o among_o other_o and_o in_o regard_n that_o no_o congregation_n if_o numerous_a at_o least_o can_v be_v presume_v to_o be_v without_o many_o lewd_a and_o vicious_a person_n though_o perhaps_o there_o may_v not_o be_v many_o that_o have_v arrive_v at_o the_o same_o height_n and_o excess_n of_o wickedness_n with_o those_o beforementioned_a i_o shall_v propose_v these_o three_o question_n to_o all_o those_o who_o spend_v their_o precious_a time_n in_o lewd_a and_o ungodly_a practice_n of_o what_o kind_n soever_o or_o rather_o i_o shall_v desire_v they_o will_v propose_v they_o to_o themselves_o 1._o let_v they_o ask_v themselves_o put_v the_o question_n to_o their_o own_o heart_n and_o conscience_n whether_o they_o think_v or_o can_v think_v that_o god_n make_v they_o and_o give_v they_o excellent_a and_o immortal_a soul_n to_o these_o end_n if_o they_o think_v he_o do_v than_o it_o seem_v they_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o god_n give_v they_o a_o be_v to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v renounce_v their_o homage_n and_o disclaim_v their_o subjection_n to_o he_o and_o serve_v the_o devil_n and_o that_o he_o still_o preserve_v they_o uphold_v they_o in_o
