blindness_n but_o a_o resistance_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o a_o unaptnesse_n to_o receive_v it_o now_o this_o be_v distinct_a from_o the_o second_o which_o you_o may_v see_v by_o this_o comparison_n the_o air_n be_v dark_a but_o it_o be_v fit_a to_o receive_v light_n if_o the_o sun_n cast_v light_a into_o it_o but_o the_o understanding_n of_o a_o man_n be_v not_o so_o it_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o

be_v a_o table_n of_o wax_n to_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v evil_a and_o will_v receive_v a_o quick_a impression_n but_o a_o table_n of_o flint_n of_o adamant_n to_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a therefore_o the_o mighty_a god_n must_v write_v his_o law_n in_o our_o heart_n for_o we_o want_v that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o be_v of_o ourselves_o unteachable_a and_o therefore_o this_o

it_o and_o to_o see_v reason_n for_o it_o but_o we_o can_v do_v so_o we_o can_v only_o propound_v thing_n to_o faith_n and_o there_o be_v not_o only_o a_o blindness_n in_o man_n but_o a_o unteachablenesse_n and_o resistance_n against_o the_o truth_n add_v to_o this_o the_o incredulity_n of_o the_o understanding_n how_o unapt_a it_o be_v to_o believe_v it_o in_o other_o thing_n it_o be_v too_o credulous_a and_o apt_a to_o believe_v and_o to_o be_v deceive_v with_o false_a tale_n and_o idle_a story_n but_o come_v to_o the_o scripture_n doubt_n and_o question_n arise_v therefore_o this_o unaptnesse_n of_o the_o mind_n to_o believe_v be_v to_o be_v consider_v this_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o 2_o cor._n 4.4_o where_o it_o be_v say_v the_o god_n of_o this_o

of_o all_o add_v to_o all_o this_o the_o enmity_n of_o the_o understanding_n which_o be_v more_o than_o all_o the_o rest_n rom._n 8.7_o the_o carnal_a mind_n be_v enmity_n against_o god_n that_o be_v

have_v a_o apprehension_n of_o wrath_n due_a for_o sin_n and_o so_o his_o misery_n under_o the_o same_o though_o a_o man_n be_v never_o so_o miserable_a yet_o if_o he_o have_v a_o bottom_n to_o stand_v on_o he_o will_v not_o go_v to_o christ_n but_o when_o he_o see_v his_o own_o nothingnesse_n and_o withal_o that_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n hang_v over_o he_o so_o that_o he_o must_v sink_v utter_o and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o help_v he_o when_o both_o these_o concur_v a_o man_n be_v humble_v man_n may_v have_v one_o without_o the_o other_o as_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n o_o you_o generation_n of_o viper_n who_o have_v warn_v you_o to_o fly_v from_o the_o wrath_n to_o come_v they_o be_v sensible_a of_o wrath_n and_o have_v so_o much_o to_o humble_v they_o but_o they_o do_v not_o see_v that_o viperous_a serpentine_a evil_a disposition_n that_o be_v in_o themselves_o again_o many_o man_n may_v see_v their_o sin_n and_o acknowledge_v the_o insufficiency_n of_o all_o they_o have_v but_o they_o be_v not_o sensible_a of_o wrath_n god_n have_v not_o charge_v sin_n upon_o their_o conscience_n nor_o reveal_v his_o wrath_n and_o therefore_o they_o go_v on_o in_o a_o senseless_a manner_n and_o be_v no_o more_o move_v with_o the_o other_o
and_o no_o way_n to_o escape_v it_o christ._n then_o go_v to_o christ_n for_o these_o two_o thing_n we_o must_v do_v first_o we_o must_v have_v our_o mouth_n stop_v that_o so_o all_o man_n may_v be_v culpable_a before_o he_o second_o we_o must_v be_v shut_v up_o in_o prison_n he_o shut_v up_o all_o under_o sin_n that_o the_o promise_n may_v be_v to_o they_o that_o believe_v when_o a_o man_n be_v shut_v up_o under_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o evasion_n this_o will_v bring_v he_o in_o indeed_o if_o the_o mind_n of_o a_o man_n can_v find_v any_o way_n to_o get_v out_o he_o will_v never_o come_v in_o to_o christ_n but_o when_o he_o shall_v not_o tell_v how_o to_o escape_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n if_o he_o sin_n against_o man_n man_n shall_v judge_v he_o but_o who_o shall_v when_o he_o sin_n against_o god_n if_o he_o consider_v the_o terror_n of_o god_n wrath_n if_o he_o shut_v up_o and_o his_o mouth_n stop_v and_o he_o leave_v inexcusable_a and_o shall_v see_v himself_o a_o miserable_a man_n i_o say_v this_o will_v make_v he_o go_v home_o to_o christ_n and_o that_o be_v the_o use_n you_o shall_v make_v of_o it_o and_o be_v sure_a he_o will_v receive_v you_o if_o you_o go_v to_o he_o sin_n be_v like_o the_o fiery_a serpent_n and_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n like_o the_o sting_n when_o you_o be_v wound_v therewith_o then_o know_v there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o

they_o again_o some_o christian_n that_o live_v under_o better_a ministery_n they_o who_o education_n be_v better_a they_o have_v more_o truth_n than_o other_o now_o see_v he_o say_v it_o be_v make_v manifest_a the_o meaning_n be_v every_o man_n have_v a_o measure_n and_o that_o be_v to_o be_v make_v manifest_a as_o light_v when_o it_o come_v into_o a_o room_n it_o show_v all_o the_o glory_n all_o

which_o be_v the_o way_n to_o happiness_n and_o that_o which_o be_v not_o and_o this_o be_v make_v know_v the_o second_o thing_n to_o be_v mark_v in_o this_o proposition_n know_v be_v to_o show_v how_o it_o be_v make_v know_v you_o see_v that_o the_o thing_n be_v make_v know_v to_o we_o not_o it_o be_v make_v know_v to_o we_o these_o four_o way_n way_n first_o nature_n it_o be_v make_v know_v to_o we_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n god_n have_v write_v the_o law_n in_o their_o heart_n rom._n 2.15_o they_o show_v the_o effect_n of_o the_o law_n which_o law_n be_v write_v in_o their_o

be_v how_o it_o shall_v be_v know_v that_o god_n have_v do_v so_o why_o say_v he_o you_o shall_v know_v it_o by_o the_o effect_n every_o man_n even_o heathen_n though_o they_o have_v not_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o scripture_n ye●_n they_o have_v the_o law_n write_v in_o their_o heart_n fo●_n they_o do_v the_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o law_n their_o action_n show_v it_o they_o

of_o other_o for_o in_o judge_v of_o other_o they_o judge_v themselves_o and_o make_v it_o evident_a that_o they_o do_v know_v though_o they_o do_v not_o practice_n and_o so_o it_o be_v reveal_v by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n work_n second_o god_n make_v it_o know_v by_o his_o work_n special_o by_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n by_o his_o work_n of_o providence_n which_o be_v ordinary_a

he_o may_v see_v there_o be_v a_o god_n and_o his_o eternal_a power_n and_o wherein_o all_o man_n may_v see_v what_o they_o ought_v to_o do_v to_o this_o god_n scripture_n three_o it_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o scripture_n joh._n 5.39_o say_v christ_n search_v the_o scripture_n for_o therein_o you_o think_v to_o have_v eternal_a life_n and_o they_o testify_v of_o i_o this_o be_v out_o of_o question_n that_o the_o scripture_n testify_v of_o god_n they_o make_v god_n know_v to_o man_n saint_n last_o it_o be_v make_v know_v by_o the_o saint_n as_o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n joh._n 5._o john_n bare_a witness_n of_o i_o and_o what_o be_v say_v of_o john_n may_v be_v say_v of_o other_o the_o saint_n bear_v witness_n of_o god_n therefore_o in_o the_o second_o to_o the_o philippian_n they_o be_v say_v to_o shine_v as_o light_n in_o the_o world_n that_o be_v they_o make_v god_n know_v to_o man_n so_o by_o these_o four_o way_n god_n make_v it_o know_v namely_o by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n second_o by_o his_o work_n three_o by_o the_o scripture_n four_o by_o the_o faithful_a that_o live_v in_o the_o world_n the_o two_o first_o make_v it_o know_v to_o the_o heathen_a the_o two_o last_o to_o they_o within_o the_o church_n that_o be_v the_o faithful_a and_o these_o be_v the_o mean_n by_o which_o it_o be_v evident_a now_o the_o three_o thing_n to_o be_v observe_v evident_a be_v that_o it_o be_v god_n that_o make_v this_o truth_n evident_a this_o be_v enough_o to_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v god_n because_o it_o be_v universal_o do_v go_v to_o all_o nation_n to_o savage_a man_n that_o seem_v to_o be_v most_o remote_a from_o the_o light_n that_o come_v not_o near_o any_o mean_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n yet_o these_o man_n believe_v there_o ●s_a a_o god_n every_o man_n without_o exception_n do_v so_o now_o where_o there_o be_v a_o universal_a effect_n it_o must_v needs_o come_v from_o a_o universal_a cause_n therefore_o from_o god_n himself_o now_o this_o be_v not_o add_v in_o vain_a deduce_v but_o this_o you_o may_v observe_v in_o that_o it_o come_v from_o god_n first_o if_o it_o come_v from_o god_n it_o be_v not_o a_o deceivable_a rule_n it_o be_v not_o a_o fancy_n but_o a_o firm_a truth_n which_o you_o may_v build_v on_o again_o if_o god_n make_v it_o know_v it_o be_v not_o do_v slight_o whatsoever_o god_n do_v if_o he_o make_v it_o know_v it_o be_v do_v to_o purpose_n and_o effectual_o if_o he_o have_v bless_v any_o he_o shall_v be_v blessed_v so_o far_o as_o it_o be_v his_o will_n to_o reveal_v so_o far_o it_o be_v to_o purpose_n and_o this_o make_v man_n more_o without_o excuse_n again_o if_o god_n have_v make_v it_o know_v than_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n you_o must_v take_v heed_n to_o you_o must_v not_o neglect_v it_o because_o it_o be_v god_n that_o be_v the_o author_n of_o it_o if_o it_o have_v be_v make_v know_v to_o we_o by_o accident_n or_o any_o creature_n you_o may_v have_v give_v the_o less_o heed_n to_o it_o bu●_n god_n have_v make_v it_o know_v it_o be_v of_o special_a moment_n you_o must_v in_o a_o special_a manner_n attend_v to_o it_o last_o in_o that_o god_n have_v make_v it_o know_v than_o you_o may_v know_v it_o be_v the_o rule_n of_o perfection_n that_o be_v give_v to_o every_o man_n in_o observe_v of_o which_o he_o shall_v find_v happiness_n in_o break_v of_o which_o consist_v his_o

you_o see_v these_o three_o thing_n first_o what_o be_v make_v know_v a_o certain_a measure_n of_o truth_n divide_v according_a to_o god_n will_n second_o how_o it_o be_v make_v know_v by_o nature_n by_o his_o work_n by_o scripture_n by_o the_o faithful_a three_o it_o be_v god_n that_o make_v it_o know_v therefore_o not_o a_o deceivable_a truth_n not_o a_o fancy_n or_o dream_n but_o to_o purpose_n therefore_o you_o must_v not_o neglect_v it_o in_o observe_v of_o it_o be_v happiness_n and_o in_o break_v of_o it_o you_o shall_v find_v there_o will_v come_v ruin_n and_o destruction_n and_o misery_n upon_o you_o 1_o now_o we_o will_v come_v to_o make_v use_n of_o it_o first_o if_o there_o be_v such_o a_o truth_n make_v know_v to_o man_n by_o god_n himself_o truth_n then_o learn_v hence_o to_o aggravate_v your_o sin_n to_o know_v the_o greatness_n of_o the_o guilt_n of_o your_o sin_n hence_o we_o may_v learn_v to_o know_v that_o the_o looseness_n and_o licentiousness_n man_n take_v to_o themselves_o against_o this_o truth_n be_v more_o desperate_a and_o heinous_a and_o inexcusable_a for_o god_n himself_o have_v make_v it_o know_v to_o they_o for_o every_o precept_n of_o man_n be_v of_o more_o or_o less_o moment_n according_a to_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o author_n the_o law_n be_v to_o be_v value_v according_a to_o the_o person_n that_o give_v the_o law_n therefore_o man_n law_n be_v of_o some_o moment_n but_o god_n law_n be_v of_o more_o moment_n this_o truth_n be_v most_o press_v in_o scripture_n when_o christ_n preach_v the_o word_n he_o say_v every_o sin_n be_v increase_v that_o be_v commit_v against_o this_o word_n when_o jonas_n come_v to_o niniveh_n it_o have_v be_v a_o great_a sin_n if_o they_o have_v not_o repent_v god_n will_v have_v visit_v they_o for_o neglect_v the_o word_n of_o jonas_n but_o a_o great_a than_o jonas_n be_v here_o say_v christ_n so_o the_o queen_n of_o the_o south_n come_v to_o hear_v the_o wisdom_n of_o

moses_n law_n shall_v die_v under_o two_o or_o three_o witness_n how_o shall_v they_o escape_v that_o neglect_n so_o great_a salvation_n which_o begin_v to_o be_v preach_v by_o the_o lord_n himself_o he_o have_v make_v it_o know_v therefore_o it_o be_v a_o fearful_a thing_n to_o neglect_v it_o therefore_o you_o may_v see_v what_o a_o emphasis_n god_n put_v on_o that_o have_v thou_o eat_v of_o the_o tree_n of_o which_o i_o bid_v thou_o shall_v not_o eat_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v the_o thing_n be_v a_o small_a matter_n in_o itself_o yet_o it_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o great_a

give_v the_o law_n it_o be_v he_o now_o god_n name_n be_v take_v in_o vain_a when_o his_o law_n be_v now_o observe_v fro_o though_o the_o disobedience_n be_v immediate_o against_o the_o law_n yet_o it_o be_v terminate_o against_o god_n himself_o for_o whatsoever_o be_v do_v against_o the_o scripture_n be_v do_v against_o god_n himself_o therefore_o say_v god_n to_o saul_n in_o that_o thou_o
