you_o therefore_o bend_v your_o mind_n to_o consider_v and_o spend_v more_o of_o your_o time_n in_o this_o work_n i_o know_v the_o corrupt_a heart_n of_o man_n be_v backward_o to_o this_o exercise_n though_o it_o be_v of_o such_o flat_a necessity_n and_o of_o such_o eternal_a advantage_n yea_o though_o it_o breed_v so_o much_o delight_n and_o pleasure_n after_o we_o have_v get_v some_o skill_n

therefore_o of_o this_o backwardness_n i_o have_v give_v you_o some_o quicken_a consideration_n to_o stir_v you_o up_o to_o this_o duty_n and_o to_o gain_v the_o consent_n of_o your_o will_n to_o

be_v most_o likely_a to_o stupify_v and_o unfit_a your_o mind_n for_o consideration_n they_o be_v obvious_a i_o need_v only_o to_o put_v you_o in_o remembrance_n first_o take_v heed_n that_o you_o sin_v not_o malicious_o 1._o with_o wilfulness_n and_o presumption_n for_o divine_n usual_o distinguish_v of_o three_o sort_n of_o sin_n 1._o sin_n of_o ignorance_n when_o through_o want_n of_o knowledge_n we_o transgress_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o do_v that_o unwitting_o which_o if_o we_o have_v know_v to_o be_v a_o violation_n of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n we_o will_v not_o have_v do_v 2._o sin_n of_o infirmity_n such_o as_o be_v commit_v through_o the_o unavoidableness_n unruliness_n of_o our_o sense_n phantasy_n or_o passion_n which_o be_v not_o whole_o under_o the_o power_n and_o

avoid_v they_o and_o will_v not_o what_o these_o be_v i_o need_v not_o inform_v you_o every_o one_o may_v be_v his_o own_o judge_n these_o last_o sort_n be_v call_v by_o some_o sin_n of_o malice_n and_o how_o much_o such_o sin_n as_o these_o will_v hinder_v all_o duty_n as_o well_o as_o consideration_n there_o be_v no_o christian_a of_o any_o experience_n but_o know_v too_o well_o and_o therefore_o david_n pray_v especial_o against_o such_o sin_n as_o these_o psal_n 19.13_o keep_v back_o thy_o servant_n from_o presumptuous_a sin_n let_v they_o not_o have_v dominion_n over_o i_o then_o shall_v i_o be_v upright_o and_o innocent_a from_o the_o great_a transgression_n if_o thou_o have_v any_o good_a affection_n to_o this_o duty_n and_o be_v convince_v that_o thy_o soul_n will_v certain_o perish_v without_o frequent_a serious_a consideration_n thou_o have_v need_v to_o take_v heed_n of_o such_o sin_n as_o these_o believe_v it_o these_o will_v wound_v thy_o conscience_n

that_o which_o will_v discover_v thy_o shame_n and_o make_v thou_o odious_a to_o thyself_o never_o think_v to_o bend_v thy_o mind_n to_o a_o impartial_a consideration_n of_o god_n and_o his_o

when_o thou_o put_v the_o question_n whether_o it_o be_v sanctify_v or_o unsanctified_a whilst_o thou_o give_v thy_o consent_n and_o allow_v thyself_o to_o live_v in_o any_o know_a sin_n i_o may_v

therefore_o be_v comprise_v in_o the_o due_a reverence_n and_o estimation_n of_o god_n and_o his_o favour_n one_a a_o clear_a and_o solid_a apprehension_n of_o our_o own_o great_a unworthiness_n of_o any_o the_o least_o of_o his_o favour_n and_o our_o infinite_a distance_n from_o his_o person_n not_o only_o by_o nature_n but_o much_o more_o through_o gild_n and_o sin_n we_o must_v be_v pretty_a well_o acquaint_v with_o our_o own_o poverty_n and_o baseness_n and_o that_o we_o have_v nothing_o but_o from_o he_o that_o all_o be_v forfeit_v again_o and_o again_o that_o the_o misery_n of_o this_o

nor_o when_o we_o be_v most_o cordial_a and_o diligent_a in_o his_o service_n but_o the_o pleasure_n of_o our_o receive_n good_a and_o see_v his_o grace_n prosper_v in_o we_o and_o that_o in_o all_o his_o threat_n and_o punishment_n he_o be_v still_o design_v our_o good_a and_o mortify_v our_o corruption_n which_o will_v otherwise_o be_v sure_a to_o ruin_v and_o undo_v we_o if_o it_o be_v not_o

the_o clothes_n that_o warm_v we_o the_o sun_n that_o shine_v on_o we_o the_o rod_n that_o correct_v we_o when_o we_o come_v to_o know_v and_o consider_v how_o much_o we_o need_v they_o and_o how_o little_a we_o deserve_v they_o 2_o it_o will_v help_v we_o to_o prize_v all_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n if_o we_o do_v but_o consider_v and_o understand_v the_o misery_n of_o those_o that_o want_v they_o we_o can_v not_o want_v the_o bread_n we_o eat_v nor_o the_o air_n we_o breath_n nor_o the_o limb_n we_o use_v nor_o the_o sense_n that_o we_o have_v without_o misery_n enough_o but_o what_o man_n can_v want_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o merit_n and_o intercession_n of_o christ_n that_o know_v that_o he_o be_v everlasting_o undo_v without_o they_o 3_o it_o will_v help_v we_o to_o estimate_v they_o right_o if_o we_o consider_v what_o they_o cost_v and_o the_o price_n that_o pay_v for_o they_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o sin_n of_o our_o parent_n who_o flesh_n and_o blood_n we_o be_v do_v cry_v out_o aloud_o for_o vengeance_n in_o the_o utter_a destruction_n of_o our_o person_n and_o god_n who_o be_v the_o just_a and_o righteous_a governor_n of_o the_o world_n can_v not_o without_o disparagement_n to_o his_o wisdom_n and_o justice_n stop_v his_o ear_n to_o the_o cry_n of_o our_o sin_n unless_o his_o son_n have_v suffer_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o satisfy_v the_o demand_n of_o his_o justice_n and_o purchase_v all_o our_o forfeit_a mercy_n back_o again_o by_o his_o blood_n so_o that_o all_o the_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a mercy_n that_o now_o we_o have_v be_v redeem_a not_o with_o silver_n and_o gold_n but_o by_o the_o precious_a blood_n of_o our_o most_o endear_a saviour_n and_o this_o consideration_n if_o it_o be_v not_o customary_a but_o serious_a will_v make_v every_o mercy_n full_a weight_n and_o enforce_v better_a apprehension_n of_o they_o and_o thankfulness_n for_o they_o 4_o and_o last_o it_o will_v conduce_v very_o much_o to_o the_o worthy_a estimation_n of_o all_o god_n mercy_n if_o we_o consider_v the_o end_n god_n have_v in_o all_o to_o which_o he_o do_v design_n every_o mercy_n that_o he_o do_v bestow_v in_o this_o present_a

health_n or_o food_n or_o friend_n or_o any_o temporal_a mercy_n or_o affliction_n but_o will_v rather_o be_v tempt_v to_o murmur_v and_o repine_v sometime_o that_o consider_v not_o well_o what_o it_o be_v intend_v for_o and_o what_o it_o may_v and_o shall_v contribute_v to_o his_o endless_a content_a and_o rest_n these_o particular_n must_v concur_v to_o make_v up_o a_o due_a estimation_n of_o all_o god_n mercy_n second_o gratitude_n and_o praise_n with_o the_o concomitant_a affection_n of_o joy_n and_o delight_n in_o god_n do_v essential_o imply_v one_a a_o love_n that_o be_v suit_v to_o
