a_o certainty_n in_o it_o for_o god_n have_v reveal_v it_o from_o heaven_n rom._n 2.15_o they_o have_v thought_n accuse_v and_o excuse_v they_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n tell_v they_o that_o they_o

it_o christ_n shall_v come_v to_o judge_v the_o secret_n of_o man_n heart_n according_a to_o my_o gospel_n nay_o it_o be_v a_o old_a truth_n deliver_v before_o the_o scripture_n as_o in_o judes_n epistle_n enoch_n preach_v behold_v the_o lord_n shall_v come_v with_o ten_o thousand_o of_o angel_n etc._n etc._n and_o if_o this_o will_v not_o persuade_v we_o will_v reason_n with_o you_o a_o little_a for_o it_o be_v not_o needless_a to_o strengthen_v these_o common_a truth_n with_o reason_n because_o we_o be_v not_o convince_v of_o they_o enough_o which_o be_v the_o cause_n man_n live_v without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n therefore_o consider_v if_o there_o be_v a_o god_n he_o be_v not_o a_o negligent_a a_o idle_a or_o unactive_a god_n for_o shall_v he_o be_v such_o a_o god_n he_o must_v either_o be_v dead_a or_o asleep_a but_o god_n be_v a_o live_a god_n and_o if_o so_o then_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n be_v in_o his_o hand_n now_o in_o that_o the_o main_a business_n be_v to_o punish_v and_o restrain_v they_o that_o be_v evil_a and_o to_o reward_v they_o that_o be_v good_a again_o if_o there_o be_v a_o god_n he_o will_v be_v fear_v and_o worship_v by_o man_n but_o if_o he_o will_v not_o punish_v man_n for_o sin_n if_o his_o wrath_n can_v not_o be_v kindle_v against_o they_o for_o their_o provocation_n of_o he_o he_o shall_v do_v neither_o good_a nor_o hurt_n and_o it_o be_v natural_a to_o man_n to_o condemn_v that_o that_o can_v neither_o hurt_v nor_o profit_v they_o and_o so_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v fear_v again_o if_o there_o be_v any_o god_n he_o must_v needs_o be_v delight_v in_o goodness_n he_o must_v needs_o have_v a_o certain_a inclination_n to_o that_o which_o be_v holy_a and_o right_a and_o if_o so_o than_o he_o must_v needs_o hate_v that_o that_o be_v evil_a if_o he_o love_v light_a he_o must_v needs_o hate_v darkness_n if_o he_o love_v life_n he_o must_v needs_o hate_v death_n and_o indeed_o love_v of_o goodness_n proceed_v from_o hatred_n of_o evil_a and_o hatred_n of_o evil_n arise_v from_o love_n of_o goodness_n and_o if_o it_o be_v so_o why_o shall_v not_o hatred_n be_v active_a as_o well_o as_o love_v therefore_o it_o be_v certain_a there_o shall_v wrath_n come_v against_o all_o ungodliness_n and_o unrighteousness_n of_o man_n observable_a second_o what_o kind_n of_o wrath_n be_v this_o in_o this_o wrath_n you_o shall_v observe_v three_o thing_n first_o there_o be_v a_o treasure_n of_o this_o wrath_n rom._n 2.5_o treasure_n thou_o according_a to_o the_o hardness_n of_o thy_o heart_n that_o can_v repent_v treasure_v up_o wrath_n now_o in_o a_o treasure_n you_o shall_v find_v three_o thing_n first_o it_o be_v a_o heap_n and_o there_o be_v still_o a_o addition_n thereto_o a_o man_n grow_v rich_a and_o rich_a save_v shilling_n and_o penny_n and_o they_o still_o add_v to_o the_o heap_n so_o god_n add_v to_o the_o heap_n of_o his_o wrath_n as_o man_n add_v sin_n he_o add_v drop_n to_o his_o viol_n and_o when_o the_o measure_n of_o our_o sin_n be_v full_a than_o the_o viol_n of_o his_o wrath_n be_v full_a it_o be_v still_o increase_v let_v not_o a_o man_n think_v that_o when_o he_o be_v over_o the_o shoe_n he_o can_v go_v no_o further_o for_o wrath_n receive_v addition_n second_o treasure_n be_v close_o and_o cover_v there_o be_v no_o use_n of_o they_o for_o the_o present_a it_o be_v therefore_o say_v wrath_n be_v ●owne_n for_o the_o wicked_a as_o joy_n be_v sow_v for_o the_o righteous_a it_o lie_v under_o the_o ground_n for_o a_o time_n therefore_o do_v not_o say_v god_n be_v slack_a because_o you_o find_v not_o his_o wrath_n present_o pour_v forth_o it_o be_v not_o slackness_n but_o patience_n and_o if_o you_o do_v of_o negligence_n sin_n and_o god_n mark_n it_o not_o but_o be_v patient_a towards_o you_o and_o suffer_v you_o know_v that_o he_o will_v not_o suffer_v that_o patience_n of_o he_o to_o be_v abuse_v but_o for_o every_o hour_n that_o you_o

then_o therefore_o i_o will_v cast_v she_o into_o great_a tribulation_n so_o that_o as_o god_n be_v angry_a and_o as_o his_o wrath_n increase_v so_o it_o lie_v hide_v for_o a_o time_n three_o there_o be_v a_o expense_n of_o treasure_n in_o time_n of_o need_n they_o bring_v they_o forth_o and_o use_v they_o so_o do_v god_n partly_o in_o this_o life_n when_o he_o shall_v smite_v a_o man_n with_o

power_n of_o his_o wrath_n psal._n 90.11_o who_o know_v the_o power_n of_o thy_o anger_n that_o be_v it_o be_v not_o a_o wrath_n like_o the_o wrath_n of_o man_n but_o a_o wrath_n that_o have_v much_o

his_o justice_n on_o the_o wicked_a therefore_o it_o be_v say_v rom._n 9.22_o what_o if_o god_n willing_a to_o show_v his_o wrath_n and_o to_o make_v his_o power_n know_v endure_v with_o much_o

be_v to_o show_v you_o what_o this_o knowledge_n here_o mean_v be_v because_o the_o difference_n be_v not_o very_o apparent_a now_o as_o to_o understand_v what_o a_o accident_n be_v you_o consider_v

and_o clear_o as_o seneca_n and_o tully_n and_o other_o of_o the_o heathen_a in_o who_o we_o find_v many_o glimmering_n and_o sparkle_n of_o true_a light_n as_o we_o may_v find_v flower_n in_o the_o

find_v they_o abroad_o second_o this_o truth_n be_v place_v in_o the_o practical_a part_n of_o the_o understanding_n and_o that_o be_v when_o we_o judge_v of_o good_a thing_n to_o be_v do_v and_o of_o

fall_v into_o sin_n the_o more_o they_o suffocate_v the_o truth_n their_o fall_n into_o sin_n give_v sin_n more_o ground_n it_o make_v they_o more_o in_o love_n with_o sin_n it_o be_v the_o more_o
