this_o scripture_n shall_v make_v mr._n jenkins_n tremble_v at_o the_o read_n thereof_o or_o else_o he_o think_v it_o not_o to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o that_o he_o be_v so_o high_a it_o

a_o difference_n between_o he_o and_o other_o whether_o herein_o he_o plead_v not_o like_o the_o jew_n who_o say_v we_o have_v abraham_n to_o our_o father_n and_o be_v you_o great_a than_o he_o so_o

may_v be_v a_o loser_n by_o dispute_v by_o preach_v come_v in_o my_o tithe_n and_o offering_n but_o to_o i_o it_o seem_v but_o just_a that_o the_o hireling_n shall_v as_o well_o dispute_v as_o

mr._n jenkins_n may_v say_v though_o i_o have_v no_o scripture_n yet_o i_o have_v this_o for_o my_o argument_n that_o which_o the_o apostle_n say_v to_o timothy_n 2_o tim._n 2._o 14._o that_o he_o be_v not_o to_o strive_v about_o word_n to_o no_o purpose_n and_o so_o in_o another_o place_n where_o we_o be_v admonish_v to_o shun_v profane_a and_o vain_a babble_n for_o they_o will_v increase_v to_o more_o ungodliness_n etc._n etc._n of_o who_o be_v hymeneus_n and_o philetus_n who_o concern_v the_o truth_n have_v err_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o jangle_n and_o dispute_n be_v forbid_v be_v not_o deny_v 2._o such_o dispute_v as_o increase_v ungodliness_n and_o subvert_v the_o hearer_n that_o be_v forbid_v it_o be_v not_o deny_v and_o 3._o it_o be_v not_o deny_v that_o dispute_v aught_o to_o be_v shune_v between_o profane_a &_o wicked_a person_n that_o deny_v plain_a truth_n but_o here_o be_v nothing_o speak_v but_o that_o fundamental_a and_o necessary_a truth_n to_o be_v satisfy_v aught_o to_o be_v dispute_v of_o else_o it_o condemn_v the_o apostle_n own_o example_n and_o practice_n for_o they_o do_v do_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o exort_v to_o the_o duty_n and_o yet_o i_o presume_v none_o will_v deny_v but_o that_o they_o do_v administer_v jangle_v but_o that_o all_o dispute_v aught_o to_o be_v shun_v because_o some_o aught_o which_o tend_v to_o vain_a jangle_n it_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o absurd_a conclusion_n much_o more_o may_v be_v say_v to_o this_o purpose_n but_o i_o think_v enough_o have_v be_v say_v in_o answer_n to_o mr._n jenkins_n three_o great_a reason_n to_o take_v off_o the_o edge_n of_o they_o that_o they_o may_v make_v no_o entrance_n in_o the_o mind_n of_o any_o man_n or_o cause_v they_o to_o think_v that_o such_o a_o slight_a

be_v too_o light_a to_o bear_v this_o great_a weight_n upon_o and_o that_o it_o still_o do_v appear_v to_o be_v his_o duty_n both_o from_o express_a command_n and_o example_n and_o if_o he_o will_v not_o perform_v it_o with_o respect_n to_o his_o challenge_n yet_o i_o desire_v he_o that_o he_o will_v do_v it_o to_o discharge_v his_o duty_n and_o to_o clear_v the_o truth_n and_o convince_v gainsayers_a for_o other_o wise_a man_n mouth_n may_v be_v just_o open_v against_o he_o to_o say_v that_o he_o have_v decline_v to_o make_v good_a that_o which_o he_o deliver_v for_o a_o truth_n but_o

be_v plead_v for_o but_o let_v those_o man_n of_o this_o persuasion_n consider_v whether_o the_o apostle_n speak_v these_o word_n as_o a_o man_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o god_n in_o the_o man_n if_o the_o apostle_n have_v no_o better_a insight_n in_o the_o business_n we_o have_v little_a ground_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o hold_v that_o he_o exhort_v we_o to_o will_v do_v we_o any_o great_a good_a in_o case_n we_o shall_v hold_v it_o and_o so_o they_o will_v make_v god_n speak_v like_o themselves_o there_o be_v nothing_o can_v rational_o be_v conclude_v by_o any_o to_o refute_v this_o sense_n contend_v for_o but_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n will_v repeal_v it_o therefore_o very_o evident_a it_o be_v that_o those_o man_n that_o have_v faith_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n have_v the_o savour_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o in_o a_o eminent_a manner_n we_o shall_v mention_v two_o more_o instance_n we_o shall_v brief_o run_v over_o they_o that_o be_v david_n and_o his_o son_n solomon_n as_o for_o david_n i_o think_v it_o be_v no_o man_n question_n whether_o he_o have_v not_o the_o savour_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v a_o true_a and_o real_a saint_n before_o the_o commit_n of_o those_o two_o horrid_a sin_n of_o murder_n and_o adultery_n for_o he_o have_v this_o signal_n testimony_n of_o be_v a_o man_n after_o god_n own_o heart_n which_o be_v give_v unto_o he_o by_o god_n himself_o before_o he_o have_v commit_v those_o two_o sin_n as_o appear_v 1_o king_n 14._o 8._o with_o act._n 13._o 22._o and_o psal_n 89._o 20._o this_o i_o think_v no_o man_n deni_v but_o the_o quaere_fw-la be_v whether_o he_o remain_v true_o godly_a under_o the_o guilt_n since_o from_o the_o time_n of_o his_o commit_n of_o they_o to_o the_o time_n of_o his_o repentance_n they_o do_v not_o stick_v to_o affirm_v it_o but_o i_o must_v of_o necessity_n deny_v it_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o that_o commit_v murder_n and_o adultery_n against_o the_o light_n of_o conscience_n and_o with_o much_o deliberation_n and_o remain_v under_o the_o guilt_n of_o these_o sin_n without_o repentance_n be_v not_o a_o man_n that_o be_v true_o godly_a or_o that_o have_v the_o savour_n of_o christ_n in_o he_o but_o david_n be_v such_o a_o one_o ergo_fw-la as_o for_o the_o first_o proposition_n it_o do_v not_o need_v much_o proof_n for_o he_o that_o shall_v act_v and_o without_o remorse_n of_o conscience_n commit_v that_o as_o be_v express_o against_o the_o command_n of_o god_n can_v be_v a_o man_n in_o the_o do_n of_o that_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n or_o love_n of_o god_n because_o of_o their_o want_n of_o obey_v of_o god_n but_o we_o shall_v a_o little_a illustrate_v it_o with_o a_o second_o thus_o he_o that_o be_v true_o godly_a and_o have_v the_o savour_n of_o christ_n in_o he_o have_v by_o the_o gracious_a promise_n of_o god_n a_o right_n unto_o the_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n this_o i_o think_v be_v not_o deny_v by_o any_o therefore_o he_o that_o commit_v murder_n and_o adultery_n have_v no_o right_a to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n during_o his_o impenitency_n under_o the_o guilt_n of_o these_o sin_n ergo_fw-la for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o this_o we_o shall_v give_v a_o express_a text_n of_o scripture_n 1_o cor._n 6._o 9_o 10._o no_o whoremonger_n and_o mutherer_n nor_o adulterer_n etc._n etc._n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o they_o that_o do_v such_o thing_n shall_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n gal._n 5._o 21._o ephes_n 5._o 5_o 6._o so_o that_o david_n while_o he_o remain_v impenitent_a under_o the_o commit_n of_o these_o two_o abomination_n be_v a_o subject_n of_o death_n on_o who_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n shall_v abide_v for_o ever_o and_o he_o be_v according_a to_o mr._n jenkins_n own_o confession_n in_o the_o suburb_n of_o hell_n those_o thing_n that_o be_v visible_o object_v against_o it_o be_v the_o tradition_n of_o man_n only_o and_o the_o scripture_n so_o clear_a against_o it_o i_o shall_v not_o trouble_v the_o reader_n with_o they_o another_o instance_n we_o have_v in_o solomon_n also_o that_o he_o before_o his_o fall_n in_o adultery_n and_o other_o miscarriage_n be_v a_o true_a believer_n and_o one_o that_o have_v the_o savour_n of_o christ_n be_v manifest_a and_o be_v not_o as_o i_o know_v deny_v by_o any_o for_o nehemiah_n speak_v of_o solomon_n say_v that_o among_o many_o nation_n there_o be_v no_o king_n like_o unto_o he_o for_o he_o be_v belove_v of_o his_o god_n nohe_n 13._o 6._o but_o their_o confession_n save_v a_o proof_n of_o that_o and_o that_o he_o also_o sin_v at_o a_o eminent_a rate_n be_v that_o also_o they_o do_v not_o deny_v a_o catalogue_n of_o his_o wickedness_n be_v reckon_v up_o by_o god_n himself_o in_o 1_o king_n 11._o 1_o 2_o 3._o his_o heart_n be_v not_o perfect_a with_o the_o lord_n god_n as_o be_v the_o heart_n of_o his_o father_n david_n that_o he_o do_v that_o which_o be_v evil_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o the_o lord_n be_v angry_a with_o he_o because_o his_o heart_n be_v turn_v from_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o israel_n and_o this_o his_o

of_o the_o ministry_n see_v what_o mr._n jenkins_n have_v yet_o bring_v to_o prove_v his_o doctrine_n be_v find_v too_o scant_o for_o that_o service_n but_o be_v clear_o detect_v and_o discharge_v
