one_o sinner_n that_o convert_v more_o than_o for_o ninety_o and_o nine_o just_a man_n yea_o let_v this_o above_o all_o the_o rest_n prick_v thou_o up_o unto_o repentance_n consider_v both_o how_o great_o the_o very_a angel_n desire_v thy_o conversion_n and_o how_o much_o they_o rejoice_v when_o thou_o do_v amend_v but_o that_o in_o the_o psalm_n like_v thou_o pass_o well_o where_o it_o be_v say_v thou_o o_o lord_n be_v a_o pitiful_a god_n and_o merciful_a slow_a to_o anger_n and_o great_a in_o kindness_n see_v you_o say_v so_o harken_v what_o in_o the_o same_o book_n of_o psalm_n be_v write_v thou_o hate_v all_o they_o which_o work_n iniquity_n again_o the_o face_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v against_o they_o that_o do_v evil_a some_o will_v yet_o say_v it_o be_v in_o the_o gospel_n after_o john_n that_o he_o which_o believe_v in_o the_o son_n have_v everlasting_a life_n but_o what_o say_v the_o same_o john_n in_o a_o other_o place_n he_o that_o commit_v sin_n be_v of_o the_o devil_n and_o he_o that_o say_v i_o know_v god_n and_o keep_v not_o his_o commandment_n be_v a_o liar_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v not_o in_o he_o john_n baptist_n witness_v of_o christ_n say_v behold_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n which_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n but_o what_o say_v he_o beside_o repent_v and_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n worthy_a amendment_n of_o life_n you_o urge_v further_o that_o of_o peter_n in_o the_o act_n say_v we_o believe_v through_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o be_v save_v but_o mark_v you_o not_o what_o in_o the_o same_o book_n be_v write_v amend_v your_o life_n therefore_o and_o turn_v that_o your_o sin_n may_v be_v put_v away_o do_v not_o christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n after_o john_n say_v god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o have_v give_v his_o only_o beget_v son_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a life_n but_o do_v he_o not_o say_v in_o matthew_n also_o not_o

for_o if_o you_o believe_v that_o paul_n or_o the_o holy_a spirit_n rather_o by_o the_o mouth_n of_o paul_n do_v speak_v the_o truth_n you_o see_v plain_o that_o you_o can_v have_v no_o hope_n of_o

penitent_a so_o do_v it_o know_v that_o he_o be_v angry_a and_o displease_v with_o such_o as_o obstinate_o proceed_v in_o sin_n there_o be_v no_o cause_n then_o why_o through_o hope_n and_o confidence_n of_o pardon_n at_o god_n hand_n thou_o shall_v prolong_v thy_o conversion_n and_o flatter_v thyself_o repent_v &_o come_v into_o the_o way_n again_o and_o then_o doubt_v thou_o no_o whit_n but_o thou_o may_v make_v thyself_o a_o large_a promise_n of_o god_n favour_n and_o kindness_n and_o as_o no_o man_n can_v true_o repent_v but_o he_o which_o hope_v to_o be_v forgive_v as_o it_o be_v well_o say_v by_o ambrose_n so_o none_o may_v hope_v to_o beforgve_v which_o do_v not_o unfeinedlie_o repent_v this_o one_o thing_n i_o will_v add_v now_o out_o of_o jesus_n the_o son_n of_o
