thou_o can_v not_o claim_v kindred_n of_o paul_n upon_o such_o a_o conscience_n with_o turk_n and_o heathen_n thou_o may_v ob._n the_o three_o ground_n be_v this_o my_o conscience_n do_v not_o only_o

not_o i_o read_v pray_v every_o day_n i_o can_v not_o sleep_v in_o the_o night_n etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v sol._n it_o must_v be_v consider_v whence_o that_o fear_n arise_v for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o very_a custom_n and_o education_n will_v make_v a_o child_n afraid_a to_o omit_v his_o devotion_n when_o he_o go_v to_o bed_n if_o we_o will_v establish_v the_o heart_n with_o comfort_n we_o must_v make_v good_a two_o thing_n first_o that_o we_o work_v upon_o right_a motive_n not_o only_o because_o such_o have_v be_v our_o custom_n such_o our_o education_n so_o be_v the_o will_n of_o our_o parent_n etc._n etc._n but_o because_o we_o need_v such_o help_n god_n love_v such_o service_n and_o we_o find_v strength_n come_v upon_o such_o performance_n second_o that_o we_o heed_v the_o manner_n of_o perform_v as_o well_o as_o the_o matter_n perform_v not_o rest_v in_o the_o work_n do_v but_o mourn_v for_o our_o dulness_n distraction_n coldness_n and_o other_o fail_n in_o the_o do_n for_o this_o be_v once_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o shame_n and_o humble_v a_o upright_a man_n than_o his_o overt_n and_o slight_a performance_n of_o his_o master_n work_n object_n the_o three_o ground_n they_o settle_v upon_o be_v their_o peace_n their_o sin_n do_v not_o daunt_v they_o nor_o their_o conscience_n damp_n they_o all_o be_v quiet_a within_o and_o they_o have_v no_o doubt_n of_o their_o salvation_n sol._n i_o answer_v there_o be_v the_o devil_n peace_n and_o god_n peace_n there_o be_v a_o negative_a peace_n or_o cessation_n only_o of_o torment_n and_o a_o positive_a peace_n or_o fruition_n of_o comfort_n therefore_o examine_v first_o the_o source_n and_o raise_n of_o thy_o peace_n for_o some_o be_v quiet_a because_o the_o conscience_n be_v either_o blind_a and_o see_v not_o the_o sword_n against_o it_o like_o balaam_n or_o slothful_a and_o sleepy_a and_o a_o very_a sore_a man_n may_v feel_v little_a in_o his_o sleep_n or_o else_o either_o sear_v or_o delude_v a_o delude_a sense_n think_v it_o feel_v or_o see_v what_o in_o truth_n it_o do_v not_o and_o sear_a flesh_n do_v not_o smart_n like_o other_o flesh_n not_o because_o it_o have_v more_o life_n but_o less_o sense_n so_o here_o second_o the_o mean_n how_o thou_o come_v by_o it_o there_o be_v no_o peace_n but_o in_o god_n way_n if_o i_o win_v it_o not_o by_o praver_fw-mi dig_v it_o not_o out_o of_o god_n save_v well_n and_o ordinance_n find_v not_o the_o word_n speak_v peace_n to_o my_o soul_n i_o can_v have_v it_o our_o peace_n come_v in_o at_o the_o ear_n as_o the_o church_n speak_v and_o out_o of_o god_n mouth_n god_n create_v peace_n by_o his_o word_n and_o lip_n 19_o as_o isaiah_n speak_v unless_o it_o bear_v his_o stamp_n and_o have_v holiness_n to_o the_o lord_n write_v upon_o it_o it_o be_v not_o right_a it_o will_v not_o pass_v as_o currant_n three_o the_o effect_n of_o it_o holy_a peace_n work_v thankfulness_n to_o christ_n humility_n in_o we_o mercifulnesse_n towards_o bruise_a spirit_n obj_fw-la the_o four_o ground_n be_v this_o i_o can_v abide_v unconscionablenesse_n in_o other_o i_o can_v with_o no_o patience_n see_v man_n go_v against_o conscience_n sol._n i_o answer_v the_o devil_n be_v a_o great_a rifler_n and_o accuser_n of_o other_o conscience_n but_o a_o conscionable_a man_n be_v busy_a at_o home_n mild_a abroad_o be_v so_o or_o be_v nothing_o object_n but_o i_o strain_v at_o the_o least_o sin_n sol._n so_o do_v the_o pharisee_n conscience_n be_v not_o right_a unless_o it_o strain_v at_o all_o sin_n endeavour_v all_o duty_n as_o paul_n speak_v in_o both_o table_n consider_v compare_v and_o so_o pass_v sentence_n and_o here_o a_o end_n of_o this_o use_n now_o to_o instruction_n and_o here_o will_v all_o that_o hear_v i_o this_o day_n be_v as_o saint_n paul_n his_o bond_n except_v it_o shall_v not_o be_v needful_a to_o say_v much_o to_o those_o who_o have_v feel_v heaven_n and_o hell_n both_o in_o their_o conscience_n they_o see_v the_o difference_n as_o for_o other_o what_o can_v i_o say_v when_o as_o man_n can_v believe_v i_o without_o experience_n if_o they_o will_v receive_v other_o testimony_n they_o may_v well_o conceive_v that_o a_o good_a conscience_n be_v beyond_o all_o create_v good_n and_o a_o bad_a worse_o than_o all_o positive_a evil_n for_o first_o what_o so_o desirable_a to_o all_o live_a thing_n as_o life_n what_o will_v not_o man_n part_v withal_o for_o life_n 4._o though_o it_o be_v from_o skin_n to_o skin_n yet_o conscience_n be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o wise_a man_n prize_v above_o life_n they_o will_v die_v a_o thousand_o death_n rather_o than_o lose_v conscience_n and_o whilst_o they_o live_v they_o live_v no_o long_o than_o conscience_n speak_v peace_n look_v upon_o a_o experience_a man_n and_o when_o he_o have_v lose_v his_o peace_n no_o meat_n no_o place_n no_o wealth_n no_o company_n no_o life_n be_v pleasant_a he_o only_o live_v because_o he_o dare_v not_o die_v second_o for_o a_o ill_a conscience_n what_o more_o terrible_a and_o hateful_a to_o nature_n than_o death_n yet_o death_n be_v sweet_a to_o a_o wound_a conscience_n do_v he_o think_v that_o death_n will_v end_v his_o torment_n he_o will_v not_o live_v nay_o though_o he_o apprehend_v a_o judgement_n a_o hell_n at_o the_o heel_n of_o death_n yet_o many_o time_n he_o rush_v upon_o it_o and_o conclude_v that_o certain_o hell_n can_v be_v no_o worse_o and_o probable_o better_a than_o a_o ill_a conscience_n loe_o my_o brethren_n what_o conscience_n both_o way_n be_v one_o so_o sweet_a that_o heaven_n will_v be_v no_o heaven_n without_o it_o the_o other_o so_o bitter_a that_o hell_n be_v no_o hell_n to_o it_o in_o the_o judgement_n of_o experience_n i_o can_v say_v no_o more_o to_o persuade_v i_o think_v now_o nothing_o shall_v remain_v but_o direction_n and_o the_o way_n to_o set_v you_o in_o paul_n circumstance_n be_v to_o guide_v you_o first_o to_o the_o get_n second_o to_o the_o keep_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n get_v for_o the_o first_o resolve_v first_o on_o the_o thing_n and_o thus_o conclude_v whatever_o it_o cost_v i_o what_o shift_n soever_o i_o make_v i_o must_v have_v a_o good_a conscience_n etc._n it_o be_v not_o necessary_a to_o have_v wealth_n a_o poor_a man_n may_v be_v honest_a here_o happy_a hereafter_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a to_o have_v health_n a_o weak_a man_n may_v to_o heaven_n nay_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o i_o must_v live_v my_o happiness_n be_v not_o confine_v to_o this_o life_n but_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o get_v a_o good_a conscience_n without_o this_o i_o can_v neither_o live_v nor_o die_v be_v neither_o rich_a nor_o poor_a sick_a nor_o well_o in_o few_o i_o can_v subsist_v i_o can_v be_v unless_o this_o be_v a_o be_v to_o wish_v i_o never_o have_v be_v without_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o therefore_o whatever_o it_o colt_v i_o i_o will_v go_v to_o the_o price_n thus_o first_o resolve_n and_o this_o do_v then_o hearken_v to_o the_o mean_n which_o be_v these_o first_o go_v to_o the_o right_a mean_n there_o be_v but_o one_o physician_n for_o soul_n and_o conscience_n and_o that_o be_v god_n he_o only_o make_v and_o he_o

therefore_o we_o must_v carry_v our_o wound_a soul_n to_o he_o allege_v his_o own_o covenant_n and_o hand_n and_o say_v lord_n thou_o have_v say_v that_o thou_o will_v take_v away_o our_o evil_a

and_o dict_z he_o prescribe_v &_o thou_o must_v follow_v this_o method_n first_o make_v thy_o conscience_n bright_a and_o lightsome_a he_o have_v write_v a_o physic_n for_o conscience_n no_o physic_n book_n for_o conscience_n but_o he_o from_o this_o book_n thou_o must_v gather_v knowledge_n for_o darkness_n defile_v the_o understanding_n as_o paul_n fay_v and_o darkness_n be_v timorous_a and_o
