himself_o final_o the_o last_o state_n of_o a_o sinner_n be_v worse_a than_o the_o first_o in_o respect_n of_o god_n who_o punish_v sin_n for_o the_o order_n of_o justice_n require_v that_o the_o more_o grace_n and_o benefit_n that_o a_o man_n receive_v at_o the_o lord_n hand_n and_o the_o more_o he_o contemn_v and_o abuse_v they_o that_o the_o more_o severe_a and_o gréevous_a shall_v be_v his_o punishment_n and_o therefore_o it_o stand_v every_o man_n and_o woman_n upon_o to_o take_v heed_n that_o he_o receive_v not_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o vain_a that_o we_o abuse_v not_o god_n mercy_n by_o add_v now_o sin_n to_o our_o old_a for_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 2.4_o rom._n 2.4_o because_o the_o lord_n be_v merciful_a patient_a &_o long_a suffering_n shall_v we_o therefore_o make_v this_o a_o occasion_n of_o sin_n god_n forbid_v i_o deny_v not_o but_o in_o what_o hour_n soever_o a_o sinner_n shall_v repent_v and_o turn_v from_o his_o wicked_a way_n that_o the_o lord_n will_v receive_v &_o take_v he_o to_o mercy_n if_o he_o repent_v indeed_o from_o his_o hart_n and_o have_v a_o full_a purpose_n by_o the_o help_n &_o assistance_n of_o god_n grace_n to_o sin_n no_o more_o the_o which_o purpose_n and_o intention_n if_o the_o sinner_n have_v not_o and_o when_o he_o have_v it_o unless_o he_o put_v in_o practice_n and_o execute_v it_o his_o repentance_n be_v no_o repentance_n he_o do_v but_o dally_v and_o mock_v with_o god_n almighty_a he_o fear_v not_o his_o judgement_n and_o therefore_o he_o shall_v never_o be_v partaker_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o last_o estate_n of_o a_o sinner_n be_v worse_a than_o the_o first_o in_o respect_n of_o god_n himself_o the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o whole_a be_v this_o so_o shall_v it_o be_v
