spectacle_n to_o see_v so_o many_o of_o we_o at_o war_n with_o god_n this_o i_o know_v will_v hardly_o be_v believe_v by_o the_o guilty_a and_o because_o they_o do_v not_o blaspheme_v god_n or_o do_v not_o trouble_v their_o head_n much_o about_o god_n or_o religion_n they_o know_v nothing_o to_o the_o contrary_n but_o that_o they_o be_v at_o peace_n with_o god_n and_o that_o they_o and_o god_n be_v very_o good_a friend_n this_o be_v true_a stupidity_n and_o be_v the_o stupidity_n invincible_a as_o it_o be_v in_o beast_n such_o man_n will_v be_v safe_a safe_a as_o the_o wild_a ass_n or_o the_o dromedary_n in_o the_o wilderness_n safe_a i_o say_v from_o the_o danger_n of_o god_n wrath._n but_o this_o can_v be_v the_o case_n of_o any_o of_o you_o that_o live_v in_o a_o country_n where_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v where_o you_o be_v tell_v that_o not_o to_o love_n god_n be_v to_o hate_v he_o and_o that_o not_o to_o delight_v in_o his_o way_n be_v to_o incur_v his_o displeasure_n that_o to_o live_v in_o those_o sin_n which_o exclude_v from_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v to_o bid_v defiance_n to_o he_o that_o to_o be_v neglectful_a of_o his_o will_n be_v to_o wage_v war_n with_o he_o that_o to_o slight_v the_o admonition_n and_o entreaty_n of_o his_o messenger_n be_v to_o be_v at_o enmity_n with_o he_o and_o that_o to_o mind_v the_o world_n more_o than_o his_o
