any_o difference_n betwixt_o thou_o and_o a_o reprobate_n god_n find_v it_o not_o in_o thou_o but_o do_v put_v it_o into_o thou_o thou_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o they_o thou_o have_v no_o more_o ability_n to_o work_v out_o thy_o own_o salvation_n than_o they_o have_v thou_o see_v many_o commit_v lewd_a prank_n some_o murder_n other_o whoredom_n etc._n etc._n thou_o leave_v yea_o hate_v these_o thing_n what_o be_v the_o cause_n sure_o god_n grace_n and_o only_a god_n grace_n give_v glory_n therefore_o unto_o god_n praise_v his_o name_n yea_o let_v all_o that_o be_v within_o thou_o praise_v he_o and_o run_v behold_v the_o readiness_n of_o this_o father_n to_o receive_v this_o his_o penitent_a child_n the_o one_o be_v not_o so_o willing_a to_o return_v as_o the_o other_o be_v joyful_a to_o receive_v the_o father_n see_v of_o he_o come_v do_v not_o stay_v until_o he_o come_v but_o arise_v to_o meet_v he_o yea_o and_o when_o he_o be_v a_o great_a way_n off_o so_o far_o as_o he_o can_v see_v he_o he_o go_v to_o meet_v he_o and_o stay_v not_o for_o his_o come_n nigh_a hence_o learn_v god_n be_v very_o ready_a to_o show_v mercy_n to_o everytrie_fw-fr penitent_n so_o say_v the_o prophet_n esay_n he_o be_v very_o ready_a to_o forgive_v those_o title_n give_v he_o for_o his_o name_n testify_v as_o much_o the_o lord_n the_o lord_n strong_a merciful_a and_o gracious_a etc._n etc._n the_o reason_n be_v these_o first_o because_o man_n be_v the_o workmanship_n of_o god_n own_o hand_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v the_o more_o ready_a and_o willing_a to_o save_v he_o a_o three_o reason_n may_v be_v this_o because_o none_o may_v despair_v of_o his_o mercy_n he_o be_v ready_a to_o show_v mercy_n that_o by_o the_o example_n of_o such_o as_o have_v find_v mercy_n other_o also_o may_v resort_v and_o repair_v unto_o he_o for_o mercy_n in_o the_o time_n of_o need_n be_v this_o so_o that_o god_n be_v ready_a to_o forgive_v every_o true_a penitent_n then_o let_v none_o lay_v the_o fault_n upon_o god_n if_o they_o perish_v in_o their_o sin_n for_o god_n be_v ready_a and_o desirous_a to_o forgive_v and_o do_v often_o call_v upon_o we_o to_o turn_v from_o our_o evil_a way_n that_o so_o we_o may_v not_o perish_v second_o see_v this_o be_v so_o that_o god_n be_v ready_a to_o show_v mercy_n to_o every_o one_o that_o seek_v it_o let_v this_o be_v as_o a_o spur_n and_o goad_n in_o our_o side_n to_o make_v we_o turn_v unto_o he_o and_o seek_v for_o mercy_n at_o his_o hand_n he_o will_v not_o be_v want_v to_o thou_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o want_v to_o thyself_o the_o last_o use_n may_v serve_v for_o imitation_n let_v we_o be_v like_a to_o our_o heavenly_a father_n and_o be_v as_o ready_a to_o forgive_v other_o who_o have_v offend_v we_o as_o god_n be_v to_o

there_o then_o so_o much_o sue_v and_o entreat_v and_o beg_v for_o reconciliation_n before_o pardon_n be_v obtain_v remember_v god_n be_v more_o gracious_a unto_o thou_o and_o ought_v not_o thou_o to_o be_v so_o unto_o thy_o brother_n further_o in_o that_o we_o here_o find_v the_o son_n come_v to_o confess_v and_o the_o father_n run_v to_o forgive_v hence_o learn_v we_o god_n be_v more_o ready_a to_o show_v mercy_n than_o penitent_a sinner_n be_v to_o sue_v for_o mercy_n the_o one_o come_v soft_o the_o other_o swift_o the_o father_n be_v the_o forward_a of_o the_o two_o use_v take_v notice_n then_o of_o god_n wonderful_a love_n who_o albeit_o he_o be_v the_o party_n that_o be_v offend_v yet_o be_v more_o ready_a to_o forgive_v than_o we_o to_o seek_v or_o to_o beg_v pardon_n second_o let_v this_o serve_v to_o increase_v our_o boldness_n in_o come_v to_o the_o lord_n thou_o can_v not_o be_v so_o forward_o to_o come_v as_o god_n be_v to_o meet_v so_o ready_a to_o crave_v pardon_n as_o he_o be_v to_o forgive_v he_o fall_v on_o his_o neck_n and_o kiss_v he_o here_o be_v a_o joyful_a meeting_n betwixt_o so_o good_a a_o father_n and_o so_o bad_a a_o son_n mercy_n and_o truth_n be_v meet_v and_o each_o of_o they_o kiss_v the_o other_o here_o be_v truth_n in_o the_o prodigal_n for_o he_o dissemble_v not_o and_o mercy_n in_o the_o father_n he_o fall_v on_o his_o neck_n etc._n etc._n by_o these_o circumstance_n the_o heat_n and_o fire_n of_o his_o affection_n be_v declare_v and_o his_o entire_a love_n unto_o his_o son_n express_v for_o a_o kiss_n have_v ever_o be_v as_o a_o pledge_n and_o pawn_v of_o kindness_n which_o be_v possess_v by_o it_o by_o this_o ceremony_n or_o rite_n they_o do_v express_v their_o love_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o primitive_a

thus_o joseph_n bless_v his_o brethren_n and_o fall_v upon_o their_o neck_n and_o kiss_v they_o etc._n etc._n when_o judas_n the_o traitor_n study_v with_o himself_o what_o course_n may_v be_v the_o best_a to_o bring_v christ_n to_o his_o death_n he_o can_v devise_v not_o a_o more_o subtle_a shift_n than_o under_o a_o shift_n a_o pretence_n of_o kindness_n to_o cover_v his_o villainy_n when_o the_o church_n in_o the_o canticle_n sue_v to_o her_o spouse_n to_o show_v his_o love_n unto_o she_o she_o intreat_v he_o to_o kiss_v she_o with_o the_o kiss_n of_o his_o mouth_n viz._n that_o he_o will_v manifest_v his_o love_n and_o affection_n unto_o she_o by_o manifest_a and_o good_a token_n thus_o the_o father_n kiss_v his_o penitent_a child_n thereby_o to_o seal_v and_o confirm_v his_o

to_o his_o son_n after_o his_o come_n into_o his_o presence_n hence_o let_v we_o learn_v this_o lesson_n god_n will_v manifest_v and_o make_v know_v his_o love_n unto_o his_o child_n by_o evident_a

do_v also_o manifest_a the_o same_o by_o sign_n and_o token_n that_o they_o may_v be_v out_o of_o doubt_n thereof_o then_o this_o may_v serve_v to_o confute_v that_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n who_o hold_v that_o no_o man_n can_v be_v certain_o assure_v of_o the_o love_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n he_o may_v hope_v well_o and_o so_o forth_o but_o no_o man_n can_v have_v any_o

let_v this_o stir_v up_o every_o one_o of_o we_o to_o a_o diligent_a examination_n of_o ourselves_o whether_o god_n have_v as_o yet_o kiss_v we_o with_o the_o kiss_n of_o his_o mouth_n whether_o he_o

may_v serve_v for_o the_o great_a comfort_n of_o all_o such_o as_o have_v god_n love_v manifest_v unto_o they_o by_o the_o former_a sign_n for_o as_o the_o terror_n be_v great_a which_o that_o man_n
