in_o god_n to_o provide_v then_o he_o see_v a_o insufficiency_n in_o all_o the_o creature_n to_o help_v and_o never_o before_o so_o when_o a_o man_n come_v to_o believe_v in_o christ_n when_o he_o

sell_v all_o to_o come_v to_o christ_n so_o he_o do_v not_o come_v to_o christ_n upon_o that_o account_n and_o so_o when_o we_o come_v to_o man_n and_o woman_n and_o say_v you_o must_v come_v to_o

that_o you_o may_v have_v life_n object_n i_o know_v many_o will_v say_v i_o have_v be_v long_o dead_a in_o my_o trespass_n and_o sin_n and_o i_o fear_v there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o life_n for_o i_o answ_n now_o mark_v what_o i_o say_v to_o that_o and_o so_o i_o will_v end_v al._n there_o be_v three_o mention_v in_o the_o gospel_n who_o christ_n raise_v from_o the_o dead_a one_o a_o maid_n that_o lie_v in_o her_o father_n house_n and_o christ_n come_v in_o and_o take_v she_o by_o the_o hand_n and_o say_v unto_o she_o arise_v another_o be_v a_o youngman_n that_o be_v carry_v out_o of_o his_o

stanke_z again_z and_o christ_n speak_v to_o lazarus_n and_o he_o come_v forth_o and_o these_o three_o say_v austin_n show_v those_o that_o christ_n will_v raise_v up_o from_o the_o dead_a again_o the_o first_o the_o maid_n that_o lay_v in_o her_o father_n house_n note_v that_o sort_n of_o sinner_n that_o commit_v secret_a sin_n &_o never_o come_v abroad_o never_o come_v into_o act_n the_o second_o the_o son_n that_o be_v carry_v out_o of_o his_o father_n house_n and_o lay_v upon_o the_o hearse_n note_v that_o sort_n of_o sinner_n that_o sin_n open_o swearer_n and_o drunkard_n who_o sin_n be_v abroad_o and_o the_o three_o that_o of_o lazarus_n note_v that_o sort_n of_o sinner_n that_o have_v lie_v so_o long_o in_o the_o grave_n that_o he_o even_o smell_n again_o now_o i_o pray_v further_o observe_v this_o that_o when_o christ_n come_v to_o raise_v lazarus_n than_o christ_n pray_v but_o he_o do_v not_o pray_v when_o he_o raise_v the_o other_o two_o and_o he_o groan_v over_o he_o he_o do_v not_o groan_v over_o the_o maid_n nor_o over_o the_o youngman_n but_o he_o groan_v over_o lazarus_n to_o show_v the_o difficulty_n of_o raise_v a_o poor_a sinner_n from_o the_o dead_a that_o have_v lie_v long_o in_o his_o sin_n and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v ever_o a_o poor_a soul_n here_o that_o be_v dead_a in_o his_o sin_n oh_o go_v to_o christ_n while_o thou_o be_v young_a and_o fall_v down_o before_o he_o and_o say_v oh_o lord_n i_o have_v a_o dead_a heart_n of_o my_o own_o oh_o let_v i_o have_v life_n from_o thou_o but_o whether_o thou_o be_v young_a or_o old_a here_o be_v yet_o hope_v lazarus_n raise_v as_o well_o as_o the_o young-maid_n &_o youngman_n lazarus_n that_o lie_v till_o he_o stanke_z again_o in_o the_o grave_n and_o therefore_o yet_o there_o be_v hope_n though_o thou_o have_v lie_v long_o wherefore_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n i_o beseech_v you_o all_o come_v unto_o jesus_n christ_n this_o morning_n if_o there_o be_v ever_o a_o poor_a
