Upon HEB. 12.1 2. Let us run with patience that race that is set before us looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith who for the joy that was set before him endured the Crosse despising the shame and is set down at the right hand of the Throne of God Good People YOu 'l pardon my old Memory and upon so sad occasions as I am come to this place to make use of my papers I dare not trust my self otherwise Good People This is a very uncomfortable time to preach in and yet I shall begin with a Text of Scripture in the twelfth of the Hebrewes Let us run with patience that race that is set before us looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith who for the joy that was set before him endured the Crosse despising the shame and is set down at the right hand of the Throne of God I have been long in my race and how I have looked unto Jesus the Author and finisher of my faith is best known to him I am now come to the end of my race and here I find the Crosse a death of shame but the shame must be despised or there is no coming to the right hand of God Jesus despis'd the shame for me and God forbid but I should despise the shame for him I am going apace as you see towards the Red-sea and my feet are upon the very brinks of it an argument I hope that that God is bringing me to the Land of Promise for that was the way by which of old he led his people But before they came to the Sea he instituted a passe-over for them a Lamb it was but it was to be eaten with very sowre Herbs as in the Twelfth of Exodus I shall obey and labour to digest the sowre Herbs as well as the Lamb and I shall remember that it is the Lords Passeover I shall not think of the Herbs nor be angry with the hands that gathered them but look up onely to him who instituted the one and governeth the other For men can have no more power over me then that which is given them from above I am not in love with this passage through the red-Sea for I have the weaknesse and infirmity of flesh and bloud in me and I have prayed as my Saviour taught me and exampled me Ut transiret calix iste That this Cup of red Wine might passe away from me but since it is not that my will may his will be done and I shall most willingly drink of this Cup as deep as he pleases and enter into this Sea and passe through it in the way that he will be pleased to lead me And yet Good People it would be remembred That when the Servants of God old Israel were in this boisterous Sea and Aaron with them the Egyptians which persecuted them and did in a manner drive them into that Sea were drowned in the same waters while they were in pursuit of them I know my God whom I serve is as able to deliver me from this Sea of Bloud as he was to deliver three Children from the furnace as Daniel 3. And I most humbly thank my Saviour for it my Resolution is now as theirs was then their Resolution was They would not worship the Image the KING had set up nor shall I the Imaginations which the PEOPLE are setting up nor will I forsake the Temple and the truth of GOD to follow the Bleating of Jeroboams Calves in Dan and in Bethel And I pray God blesse all this People and open their eyes that they may see the right way for if it fall out that the blind lead the blind doubtlesse they will both into the ditch For my self I am and I acknowledged it in all humility a most grievous sinner many waies by thought word and deed and therefore I cannot doubt but that GOD hath mercy in store for me a poor penitent as well as for other sinners I have upon this sad occasion ransack'd every corner of my heart and yet I thank God I have not found any of my sins that are there any sins now deserving death by any known Law of this Kingdom and yet thereby I charge nothing upon my Judges I humbly beseech you I may rightly be understood I charge nothing in the least degree upon my Judges for they are to proceed by proof by valuable Witnesses and in that way I or any Innocent in the world may justly be
