must_v cease_v to_o be_v god_n if_o any_o untruth_n shall_v be_v find_v in_o he_o and_o yet_o now_o mark_n unbelief_n do_v cast_v so_o great_a a_o reproach_n upon_o god_n as_o to_o say_v god_n be_v a_o liar_n you_o have_v it_o express_o 1_o john_n 5.10_o 11._o he_o that_o believe_v not_o on_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v make_v god_n a_o liar_n because_o he_o believe_v not_o the_o record_n that_o god_n have_v give_v of_o his_o son_n now_o what_o be_v the_o record_n that_o god_n have_v give_v of_o his_o son_n verse_n 11._o this_o be_v the_o record_n that_o god_n have_v give_v to_o we_o

not_o receive_v this_o truth_n and_o testimony_n unbeliever_n that_o remain_v in_o their_o unbelief_n they_o go_v on_o every_o day_n to_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n question_n but_o you_o will_v say_v how_o do_v we_o by_o unbelief_n make_v god_n a_o liar_n answer_n how_o brief_o thus_o when_o a_o soul_n go_v on_o notwithstanding_o god_n hold_v forth_o this_o record_n that_o here_o be_v eternal_a

life_n for_o you_o this_o be_v the_o great_a truth_n that_o god_n do_v bear_v witness_n to_o in_o the_o gospel_n now_o this_o gospel_n be_v preach_v and_o publish_v and_o proclaim_v now_o when_o people_n have_v no_o more_o regard_n to_o this_o great_a truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n than_o they_o have_v to_o the_o word_n of_o a_o liar_n than_o they_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n they_o say_v this_o be_v a_o lie_n let_v god_n say_v what_o he_o will_v i_o will_v not_o believe_v a_o word_n of_o it_o but_o we_o will_v look_v for_o salvation_n another_o way_n we_o will_v shift_v for_o ourselves_o as_o well_o as_o we_o can_v by_o our_o own_o duty_n and_o service_n we_o will_v find_v the_o life_n in_o our_o own_o hand_n so_o long_o as_o any_o poor_a soul_n go_v on_o in_o a_o course_n of_o unbelief_n he_o go_v on_o continual_o to_o say_v that_o god_n be_v a_o liar_n o_o brethren_n will_v it_o not_o make_v your_o ear_n tingle_v and_o your_o heart_n ache_v to_o hear_v a_o man_n go_v up_o and_o down_o the_o street_n say_v god_n be_v a_o liar_n i_o will_v not_o believe_v one_o word_n that_o he_o say_v you_o will_v say_v if_o the_o man_n be_v in_o his_o wit_n it_o be_v pity_n that_o he_o be_v suffer_v to_o live_v thus_o to_o blaspheme_v the_o true_a god_n why_o true_o this_o be_v the_o case_n and_o course_n of_o every_o one_o that_o live_v under_o the_o gospel_n under_o this_o record_n that_o god_n do_v bear_v concern_v jesus_n christ_n and_o eternal_a life_n to_o be_v have_v in_o he_o and_o yet_o they_o go_v on_o in_o a_o course_n and_o state_n of_o unbelief_n and_o make_v

blasphemy_n be_v this_o it_o may_v be_v you_o make_v no_o great_a matter_n of_o this_o but_o notwithstanding_o thus_o it_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v he_o that_o believe_v not_o the_o record_n that_o god_n have_v give_v of_o his_o son_n he_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n and_o be_v not_o this_o a_o great_a sin_n to_o strike_v at_o the_o very_o be_v of_o god_n for_o if_o god_n be_v not_o a_o god_n of_o truth_n he_o must_v cease_v to_o be_v god_n that_o be_v the_o second_o demonstration_n that_o unbelief_n as_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n so_o it_o be_v the_o great_a of_o sin_n but_o then_o 3._o unbelief_n appear_v to_o be_v a_o great_a sin_n because_o it_o be_v that_o whereby_o people_n do_v despise_v with_o the_o great_a despite_n the_o great_a kindness_n and_o favour_n that_o god_n can_v show_v to_o poor_a creature_n they_o do_v as_o it_o be_v spurn_v and_o kick_v away_o the_o kindness_n of_o god_n with_o a_o spurn_n of_o the_o foot_n god_n in_o the_o gospel_n do_v hold_v forth_o the_o great_a kindness_n and_o favour_n that_o can_v be_v show_v to_o poor_a sinner_n he_o offer_v to_o they_o life_n and_o salvation_n peace_n and_o pardon_v and_o reconciliation_n now_o for_o person_n not_o to_o regard_v this_o o_o it_o be_v a_o despise_n with_o the_o great_a despite_n the_o high_a kindness_n and_o favour_n that_o god_n can_v show_v to_o poor_a sinner_n i_o pray_v do_v but_o consider_v three_o or_o four_o thing_n that_o you_o may_v see_v what_o a_o high_a contempt_n it_o be_v of_o the_o great_a kindness_n that_o can_v be_v show_v to_o poor_a creature_n 1._o consider_v but_o the_o state_n and_o condition_n of_o those_o to_o who_o god_n do_v offer_v and_o tender_v his_o grace_n in_o the_o gospel_n what_o be_v they_o to_o who_o god_n proclaim_v his_o gospel_n and_o offer_v pardon_n and_o reconciliation_n and_o peace_n and_o life_n and_o salvation_n who_o be_v they_o a_o company_n of_o poor_a condemn_a creature_n that_o be_v under_o the_o sentence_n of_o eternal_a death_n and_o condemnation_n poor_a hopeless_a and_o helpless_a undo_v creature_n we_o be_v all_o under_o a_o sentence_n of_o eternal_a death_n continual_o so_o long_o as_o we_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o unbelief_n the_o soul_n that_o sin_v it_o shall_v die_v god_n have_v pronounce_v this_o sentence_n upon_o every_o sinner_n head_n now_o that_o god_n shall_v offer_v and_o tender_a and_o show_v himself_o ready_a to_o show_v kindness_n unto_o poor_a undo_v creature_n poor_a condemn_a creature_n condemn_v to_o eternal_a death_n and_o for_o such_o poor_a creature_n to_o slight_v this_o kindness_n be_v not_o this_o a_o sin_n and_o provocation_n with_o a_o witness_n be_v it_o not_o a_o great_a kindness_n for_o a_o king_n to_o show_v such_o favour_n to_o a_o poor_a condemn_a creature_n that_o be_v ready_a to_o the_o gallow_n if_o the_o king_n shall_v send_v he_o his_o pardon_n it_o will_v be_v count_v a_o kindness_n and_o a_o favour_n indeed_o true_o brethren_n we_o be_v all_o condemn_a creature_n sentence_v to_o eternal_a death_n now_o that_o god_n shall_v be_v please_v to_o have_v any_o intendment_n of_o good_a will_n and_o favour_n towards_o such_o as_o we_o be_v especial_o if_o you_o consider_v the_o state_n of_o angel_n that_o fall_v and_o be_v under_o a_o sentence_n of_o eternal_a condemnation_n that_o god_n shall_v leave_v they_o hopeless_a and_o helpless_a for_o ever_o pass_v by_o they_o and_o show_v favour_n to_o poor_a sinful_a mankind_n here_o be_v a_o favour_n and_o kindness_n indeed_o we_o may_v all_o have_v perish_v and_o god_n have_v lose_v nothing_o at_o all_o he_o have_v be_v infinite_o glorious_a and_o just_a for_o ever_o and_o then_o again_o 2._o consider_v how_o god_n have_v set_v his_o infinite_a wisdom_n on_o work_n to_o contrive_v and_o find_v out_o a_o way_n to_o manifest_v his_o goodness_n and_o favour_n to_o poor_a sinner_n which_o all_o the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n can_v never_o have_v do_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o way_n find_v out_o to_o save_v sinner_n that_o have_v infinite_o offend_v and_o wrong_v the_o justice_n of_o
