the_o act_n of_o god_n elect_v love_n for_o election_n design_v man_n not_o only_o to_o eternal_a glory_n but_o to_o holiness_n of_o life_n a_o mean_n thereto_o 5._o and_o the_o manner_n of_o this_o connexion_n of_o truth_n be_v the_o more_o to_o be_v note_v by_o we_o because_o the_o apostle_n seem_v to_o conjoin_v they_o in_o a_o holy_a heat_n of_o spirit_n say_v the_o foundation_n of_o god_n stand_v sure_a have_v this_o seal_n the_o lord_n know_v they_o that_o be_v he_o and_o and_o let_v every_o one_o that_o shall_v but_o so_o much_o as_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n depart_v from_o

the_o text_n we_o have_v 1._o a_o exhortation_n 2_o the_o extension_n of_o that_o exhortation_n 1._o the_o exhortation_n be_v that_o man_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n 2._o the_o extension_n of_o it_o be_v to_o they_o all_o of_o they_o every_o one_o of_o they_o that_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ._n and_o let_v every_o one_o that_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n in_o the_o exhortation_n there_o be_v several_a thing_n to_o be_v take_v notice_n of_o because_o insinuate_v by_o the_o apostle_n the_o first_o be_v that_o iniquity_n be_v a_o very_a dangerous_a and_o hurtful_a thing_n as_o to_o the_o soul_n of_o sinner_n in_o general_a so_o to_o they_o that_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ._n it_o be_v very_o a_o dangerous_a and_o hurtful_a thing_n to_o man_n in_o general_n for_o it_o be_v that_o which_o do_v captivate_v the_o world_n at_o the_o beginning_n and_o that_o make_v it_o a_o bondslave_n to_o the_o devil_n it_o have_v also_o do_v great_a hurt_n to_o mankind_n ever_o since_o to_o instance_n a_o few_o thing_n 2.12_o 1._o it_o be_v that_o which_o have_v stupefy_v and_o besot_v the_o power_n of_o man_n soul_n and_o make_v they_o even_o next_o to_o a_o beast_n and_o brute_n in_o all_o matter_n supernatural_a and_o heavenly_a for_o as_o the_o beast_n mind_v nothing_o but_o his_o lust_n and_o his_o belly_n by_o nature_n so_o man_n mind_v nothing_o but_o thing_n earthly_a sensual_a and_o devilish_a by_o reason_n of_o iniquity_n 4.18_o 2._o it_o have_v blind_v and_o darken_v the_o power_n of_o the_o soul_n so_o that_o it_o can_v neither_o see_v where_o it_o be_v nor_o which_o be_v the_o way_n out_o of_o this_o besotted_a condition_n 5._o 3._o it_o have_v harden_v the_o heart_n against_o god_n and_o against_o all_o admonition_n and_o counsel_n in_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ._n 1.21_o 4._o it_o have_v alienate_v the_o will_n the_o mind_n and_o affection_n from_o the_o choice_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o shall_v save_v it_o and_o wrought_v they_o over_o to_o a_o hearty_a delight_n in_o those_o thing_n that_o natural_o tend_v to_o drown_v it_o in_o perdition_n and_o destruction_n 5._o it_o have_v make_v man_n odious_a in_o god_n eye_n 16.5_o it_o have_v provoke_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n against_o he_o and_o make_v he_o obnoxious_a to_o hell_n fire_n 6._o yea_o it_o so_o hold_v he_o 5.22_o so_o bind_v he_o so_o reserve_v he_o to_o this_o that_o not_o he_o himself_o nor_o yet_o all_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n can_v deliver_v he_o from_o this_o deplorable_a condition_n 7._o to_o say_v nothing_o of_o the_o pleasure_n and_o delight_n that_o it_o make_v he_o take_v in_o that_o way_n to_o hell_n in_o which_o he_o walk_v 24.25_o never_o go_v fat_a ox_n so_o gamesome_o to_o the_o shambles_n nor_o fool_n so_o merry_o to_o the_o correction_n of_o the_o stock_n nor_o silly_a bird_n so_o wanton_o to_o the_o hide_a net_n as_o iniquity_n make_v man_n go_v down_o her_o step_n to_o the_o pit_n of_o hell_n and_o damnation_n o_o it_o be_v amaze_a it_o be_v astonish_v to_o consider_v what_o hurt_n sin_n have_v do_v to_o man_n and_o into_o how_o many_o danger_n it_o have_v bring_v he_o but_o let_v these_o few_o hint_n at_o this_o time_n suffice_v as_o to_o this_o i_o will_v now_o speak_v a_o word_n to_o the_o other_o particular_a namely_o that_o as_o iniquity_n be_v dangerous_a and_o hurtful_a to_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n in_o general_a so_o it_o be_v to_o they_o that_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ._n as_o to_o the_o so_o and_o so_o name_v of_o he_o to_o that_o i_o shall_v speak_v by_o and_o by_o but_o at_o this_o time_n take_v it_o thus_o that_o religious_o name_v his_o name_n and_o i_o say_v iniquity_n be_v hurtful_a to_o they_o 1._o it_o pluck_v many_o a_o one_o of_o they_o from_o christ_n and_o the_o religious_a profession_n of_o he_o i_o have_v even_o see_v that_o man_n who_o have_v devout_o and_o religious_o profess_a jesus_n christ_n have_v be_v prevail_v withal_o by_o iniquity_n to_o cast_v he_o and_o the_o profession_n of_o his_o name_n quite_o off_o and_o to_o turn_v their_o back_n upon_o he_o israel_n say_v the_o prophet_n have_v cast_v off_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a 8.3_o but_o why_o of_o their_o silver_n and_o their_o gold_n they_o have_v make_v idol_n the_o sin_n of_o idolatry_n draw_v their_o heart_n from_o god_n their_o love_n to_o that_o iniquity_n make_v they_o turn_v their_o back_n upon_o he_o wherefore_o god_n complain_v that_o of_o forwardness_n to_o their_o iniquity_n and_o through_o the_o prevalence_n thereof_o 23.35_o they_o have_v cast_v he_o behind_o their_o back_n 2._o as_o it_o pluck_v many_o a_o professor_n from_o christ_n so_o it_o keep_v many_o a_o one_o from_o a_o effectual_a close_n with_o he_o how_o many_o be_v there_o that_o religious_o profess_v and_o make_v mention_n of_o the_o name_n of_o chri●t_n that_o yet_o of_o love_n to_o and_o by_o the_o interest_n that_o iniquity_n have_v in_o their_o affection_n never_o close_v with_o he_o unto_o salvation_n but_o be_v like_a to_o they_o of_o who_o you_o read_v in_o paul_n to_o timothy_n 7._o that_o they_o be_v ever_o learning_n and_o never_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n 3._o and_o concern_v those_o that_o have_v indeed_o come_v to_o he_o and_o that_o have_v effectual_o close_v with_o he_o and_o that_o name_n his_o name_n to_o good_a purpose_n yet_o how_o have_v iniquity_n hurt_v and_o abuse_v many_o of_o they_o 1._o it_o have_v prevail_v with_o god_n to_o hide_v his_o face_n from_o they_o a_o thing_n more_o bitter_a than_o death_n 2._o it_o have_v prevail_v with_o god_n to_o chastise_v and_o to_o afflict_v they_o sore_o 3.33_o a_o thing_n in_o which_o he_o take_v no_o pleasure_n 3._o it_o have_v provoke_v god_n to_o give_v they_o over_o to_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o enemy_n 18.34_o and_o to_o deliver_v they_o to_o the_o tormentor_n 4._o it_o have_v bring_v they_o to_o question_v their_o interest_n in_o christ_n 31.22_o and_o whether_o they_o ever_o have_v grace_n in_o their_o soul_n 5._o and_o for_o those_o that_o have_v yet_o believe_v they_o be_v in_o his_o favour_n 51._o this_o iniquity_n have_v drive_v they_o to_o fear_v that_o god_n will_v cast_v they_o away_o and_o take_v all_o his_o good_a thing_n from_o they_o 4.16_o yea_o he_o that_o will_v know_v the_o hurt_n that_o iniquity_n have_v do_v to_o they_o that_o name_n the_o name_n of_o christ_n let_v he_o consider_v the_o cry_n the_o sigh_n the_o tear_n the_o bemoaning_n the_o bewailing_n the_o lamentation_n the_o sorrow_n the_o confession_n the_o repenting_n and_o grief_n wherewith_o they_o have_v be_v attend_v while_o they_o have_v complain_v that_o they_o have_v be_v put_v in_o the_o stock_n lay_v in_o the_o dungeon_n have_v their_o bone_n break_v suffer_v the_o terour_n of_o god_n be_v distress_v almost_o to_o distraction_n and_o have_v be_v feed_v with_o gravel_n gall_n wormwood_n and_o with_o the_o water_n of_o astonishment_n for_o day_n yea_o year_n together_o by_o all_o which_o and_o many_o more_o which_o may_v be_v mention_v it_o appear_v that_o iniquity_n be_v a_o dangerous_a and_o hurtful_a thing_n but_o i_o proceed_v and_o come_v in_o the_o next_o place_n to_o the_o extension_n of_o the_o exhortation_n namely_o that_o it_o reach_v to_o all_o those_o that_o name_n the_o name_n of_o christ._n and_o let_v every_o one_o that_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n to_o handle_v this_o a_o little_a and_o first_o to_o show_v you_o what_o the_o apostle_n here_o mean_v by_o name_v of_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n he_o mean_v not_o a_o irreligious_a name_n of_o that_o worthy_a name_n nor_o those_o that_o name_n it_o irreligious_o this_o be_v evident_a because_o he_o pass_v by_o their_o manner_n of_o name_v of_o it_o without_o the_o least_o reproof_n the_o which_o he_o will_v not_o have_v do_v have_v the_o fault_n be_v in_o their_o manner_n of_o name_v of_o the_o
their_o profession_n of_o faith_n in_o he_o a_o holy_a and_o bless_a conversation_n have_v thus_o brief_o show_v you_o these_o thing_n i_o shall_v come_v in_o the_o next_o place_n to_o show_v you_o why_o some_o that_o as_o to_o word_n right_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n do_v not_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n reason_n that_o it_o be_v incident_a to_o man_n to_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n religious_o and_o not_o to_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n i_o have_v prove_v already_o and_o now_o i_o must_v show_v you_o why_o it_o be_v so_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v of_o three_o sort_n first_o some_o profess_v he_o reason_n yet_o have_v not_o save_v faith_n in_o he_o nor_o yet_o receive_v grace_n from_o he_o that_o some_o profess_v he_o that_o have_v not_o say_v in_o he_o nor_o receive_v grace_n from_o he_o i_o will_v make_v appear_v first_o and_o then_o that_o they_o do_v not_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n shall_v be_v show_v afterward_o that_o the_o first_o be_v true_a consider_v christ_n say_v to_o his_o disciple_n there_o be_v some_o of_o you_o that_o believe_v not_o 6.46_o and_o again_o for_o jesus_n know_v from_o the_o beginning_n who_o they_o be_v that_o believe_v not_o and_o who_o shall_v betray_v he_o now_o if_o they_o believe_v not_o they_o have_v none_o of_o his_o grace_n in_o they_o for_o faith_n be_v the_o first_o and_o head_n grace_n the_o beginning_n and_o lead_v grace_n he_o therefore_o that_o be_v destitute_a of_o that_o be_v empty_a of_o all_o the_o rest_n beside_o other_o scripture_n also_o confirm_v this_o truth_n james_n call_v some_o of_o the_o professor_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v in_o his_o day_n 2.20_o vain_a or_o empty_a man_n that_o be_v man_n void_a of_o grace_n and_o the_o apostle_n suggest_v in_o the_o very_a word_n below_o the_o text_n that_o as_o in_o god_n house_n there_o be_v golden_a and_o silver_n saint_n 2.20_o so_o their_o be_v also_o earthy_a and_o wooden_a one_o for_o in_o a_o great_a house_n as_o god_n be_v be_v not_o only_a vessel_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n but_o also_o of_o wood_n and_o of_o earth_n 22.23_o and_o some_o to_o honour_n and_o some_o to_o dishonour_v that_o be_v some_o for_o heaven_n and_o some_o for_o hell_n now_o they_o be_v these_o wooden_a and_o earthy_a professor_n that_o he_o aim_v at_o in_o the_o text_n to_o wit_n that_o they_o shall_v depart_v from_o iniquity_n or_o else_o their_o profession_n will_v do_v they_o no_o good_a and_o these_o also_o that_o he_o despair_v of_o in_o the_o next_o word_n say_v but_o but_o in_o this_o great_a house_n of_o god_n there_o will_v not_o only_o be_v golden_a and_o silver_n christian_n but_o wooden_a and_o earthly_a one_o and_o if_o any_o man_n purge_v himself_o from_o these_o from_o these_o man_n company_n and_o from_o these_o man_n vice_n he_o shall_v be_v a_o vessel_n to_o honour_v sanctify_v and_o meet_v for_o the_o master_n use_n and_o prepare_v to_o every_o good_a work_n from_o all_o which_o it_o be_v gather_v that_o there_o be_v some_o that_o name_n the_o name_n of_o christ_n in_o a_o way_n of_o profession_n that_o have_v neither_o faith_n nor_o grace_n in_o they_o and_o so_o consequent_o that_o do_v not_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n for_o first_o these_o want_n that_o principle_n that_o holy_a and_o bless_a principle_n that_o shall_v induce_v they_o thereunto_o to_o wit_n the_o great_a and_o principal_a grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o they_o be_v four_o first_o as_o i_o have_v say_v they_o want_v faith_n that_o heart_n purify_n grace_n for_o the_o heart_n be_v purify_v by_o faith_n 15.9_o i_o have_v show_v you_o already_o that_o depart_n from_o iniquity_n must_v be_v with_o the_o mind_n and_o affection_n or_o with_o the_o heart_n but_o how_o can_v that_o be_v where_o the_o heart_n be_v not_o sanctify_v and_o make_v holy_a for_o a_o unsanctified_a mind_n can_v depart_v from_o iniquity_n no_o more_o than_o the_o ethiopian_a can_v change_v his_o skin_n 13.23_o but_o nothing_o can_v purify_v the_o heart_n but_o faith_n therefore_o nothing_o can_v make_v a_o professor_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n where_o faith_n be_v want_v so_o then_o when_o man_n profess_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n without_o have_v holy_a faith_n in_o he_o they_o still_o abide_v by_o their_o iniquity_n they_o depart_v not_o from_o their_o iniquity_n but_o rather_o make_v of_o their_o profession_n a_o cloak_n for_o their_o iniquity_n for_o their_o malice_n 2.16_o and_o for_o their_o covetousness_n and_o the_o like_a it_o be_v not_o profession_n but_o faith_n that_o bring_v god_n and_o the_o soul_n together_o and_o as_o long_o as_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n be_v at_o distance_n what_o ever_o profession_n be_v make_v there_o be_v not_o a_o depart_a not_o a_o heart_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n wherefore_o to_o these_o professor_n james_n write_v thus_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n and_o he_o will_v draw_v nigh_o to_o you_o 4.8_o cleanse_v your_o hand_n you_o sinner_n and_o purify_v your_o heart_n you_o double_v mind_v man_n far_o from_o god_n can_v think_v reverent_o of_o he_o nor_o so_o speak_v and_o profess_v he_o as_o stand_v with_o the_o nature_n of_o gospel_n religion_n wherefore_o god_n say_v draw_v near_o hither_o that_o be_v by_o faith_n and_o again_o 40.1_o let_v they_o come_v near_o then_o let_v they_o speak_v then_o let_v they_o profess_v 11.6_o without_o faith_n a_o man_n can_v please_v god_n because_o he_o can_v without_o it_o stand_v before_o he_o in_o the_o spotless_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n nor_o yet_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n and_o live_v a_o holy_a life_n there_o be_v three_o thing_n in_o faith_n that_o direct_o tend_v to_o make_v a_o man_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n 1._o it_o apprehend_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o be_v and_o greatness_n of_o god_n and_o so_o it_o aw_v the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n 2._o it_o apprehend_v the_o love_n of_o this_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o so_o it_o conquer_v and_o overcome_v the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n 3._o it_o apprehend_v the_o sweetness_n and_o blessedness_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o godhead_n and_o thence_o persuade_v the_o soul_n to_o desire_v here_o communion_n with_o he_o that_o it_o may_v be_v holy_a and_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o he_o when_o this_o world_n be_v end_v that_o it_o may_v be_v happy_a in_o and_o by_o he_o for_o ever_o but_o without_o faith_n these_o thing_n can_v be_v apprehend_v and_o therefore_o those_o that_o want_v it_o whatever_o their_o profession_n be_v they_o will_v not_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n second_o repentance_n be_v another_o of_o the_o great_a and_o principal_a grace_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n work_v in_o the_o heart_n wherefore_o without_o this_o also_o there_o can_v be_v no_o depart_n from_o iniquity_n it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o expect_v it_o of_o any_o man_n let_v his_o profession_n be_v never_o so_o stately_a and_o great_a if_o he_o be_v a_o stranger_n to_o find_v repentance_n how_o many_o be_v there_o in_o our_o day_n since_o the_o gospel_n be_v grow_v so_o common_a that_o catch_v up_o a_o notion_n of_o good_a thing_n and_o from_o that_o notion_n make_v a_o profession_n of_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n get_v into_o church_n and_o obtain_v the_o title_n of_o a_o brother_n a_o saint_n a_o member_n of_o a_o gospel_n congregation_n that_o have_v clean_o escape_v repentance_n i_o say_v

appear_v that_o christian_n do_v not_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n as_o they_o shall_v and_o therefore_o the_o exhortation_n stand_v good_a and_o of_o use_n to_o the_o best_a of_o saint_n on_o earth_n that_o they_o and_o every_o of_o they_o shall_v depart_v from_o iniquity_n yea_o the_o observation_n also_o that_o they_o do_v not_o do_v it_o as_o they_o shall_v do_v still_o stand_v good_a against_o we_o wherefore_o as_o it_o be_v true_a in_o those_o that_o have_v nothing_o but_o notion_n and_o that_o it_o be_v true_a in_o those_o that_o be_v wrought_v upon_o but_o not_o effectual_o so_o it_o be_v true_a upon_o those_o that_o be_v true_o gracious_a observation_n prove_v it_o fear_n of_o damnation_n prove_v it_o the_o outcry_n of_o the_o world_n prove_v it_o and_o the_o confession_n of_o the_o best_a man_n prove_v it_o i_o come_v now_o to_o another_o observation_n with_o which_o i_o will_v present_v you_o and_o that_o be_v this_o namely_o that_o every_o one_o that_o in_o way_n of_o profession_n and_o religion_n name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n shall_v depart_v from_o iniquity_n i_o say_v that_o every_o one_o that_o in_o a_o way_n of_o profession_n and_o religion_n name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n shall_v depart_v from_o iniquity_n this_o truth_n need_v more_o practice_n than_o proof_n for_o i_o think_v there_o be_v none_o that_o have_v either_o scripture_n or_o reason_n by_o they_o but_o will_v free_o consent_v to_o this_o nor_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n ambiguous_a in_o the_o observation_n that_o we_o need_v now_o to_o stand_v upon_o the_o explain_n of_o for_o what_o iniquity_n be_v who_o know_v not_o that_o it_o cleave_v to_o the_o best_a who_o know_v not_o that_o it_o be_v disgraceful_a to_o profession_n who_o know_v not_o and_o therefore_o that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v depart_v from_o who_o know_v not_o but_o because_o the_o motive_n in_o particular_a may_v not_o be_v so_o much_o consider_v as_o they_o ought_v and_o because_o it_o be_v satan_n design_n to_o tempt_v we_o to_o be_v unholy_a and_o to_o keep_v iniquity_n and_o the_o profess_v man_n together_o therefore_o i_o will_v in_o this_o place_n spend_v some_o argument_n upon_o you_o that_o profess_v and_o in_o a_o way_n of_o profession_n do_v name_n the_o name_n of_o christ_n that_o you_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n to_o wit_n both_o in_o the_o inward_a thought_n and_o in_o the_o outward_a practice_n of_o it_o and_o those_o argument_n shall_v be_v of_o four_o sort_n some_o respect_v christ_n some_o his_o father_n some_o ourselves_o and_o some_o the_o world_n first_o the_o
