i_o which_o be_v worst_a sin_n or_o sorrow_n possible_o it_o may_v be_v your_o affliction_n and_o sorrow_n to_o walk_v alone_o but_o to_o keep_v bad_a company_n be_v your_o sin_n and_o guilt_n quest_n why_o but_o be_v they_o all_o alike_o guilty_a that_o do_v keep_v bad_a company_n answ_n no._n for_o there_o be_v three_o sort_n of_o man_n that_o do_v or_o may_v possible_o keep_v bad_a company_n some_o be_v wicked_a themselves_o some_o be_v professor_n and_o some_o member_n of_o church_n it_o ill_o for_o a_o wicked_a man_n to_o keep_v bad_a company_n it_o be_v worse_o for_o a_o professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o it_o be_v worst_a of_o all_o for_o a_o member_n of_o a_o church_n 1._o it_o be_v ill_a for_o any_o man_n to_o keep_v evil_a company_n it_o be_v ill_a for_o a_o wicked_a man_n himself_o to_o do_v it_o for_o the_o more_o companion_n that_o a_o man_n have_v in_o his_o wickedness_n the_o more_o he_o be_v enclose_v therein_o and_o the_o hard_a it_o be_v for_o he_o to_o break_v away_o from_o his_o wickedness_n be_v it_o not_o a_o hard_a thing_n for_o a_o bird_n to_o fly_v away_o that_o be_v take_v in_o the_o lime_n twigg_n why_o evil_n company_n be_v the_o devil_n lime-twiggs_a and_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o many_o a_o man_n do_v continue_v in_o his_o sin_n who_o be_v convince_v of_o the_o evil_a of_o it_o but_o because_o he_o be_v hold_v fast_o in_o the_o band_n of_o his_o wicked_a company_n o_o say_v one_o i_o confess_v it_o be_v my_o duty_n to_o live_v otherwise_o but_o i_o can_v get_v away_o from_o my_o company_n so_o that_o though_o a_o man_n be_v a_o wicked_a man_n himself_o it_o be_v a_o evil_a thing_n for_o he_o to_o keep_v bad_a company_n but_o second_o as_o it_o be_v a_o evil_a thing_n for_o a_o wicked_a man_n to_o keep_v bad_a company_n so_o it_o be_v worse_a for_o a_o professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o do_v it_o peccatum_fw-la majus_fw-la the_o more_o repugnancy_n there_o be_v between_o the_o sin_n and_o the_o sinner_n the_o worse_a and_o the_o great_a be_v the_o sin_n now_o a_o professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o have_v dedicate_v himself_o unto_o god_n and_o separate_v himself_o from_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o for_o he_o to_o keep_v ill_a company_n be_v direct_o contrary_a unto_o his_o profession_n the_o more_o that_o any_o man_n sin_n against_o his_o knowledge_n and_o conscience_n the_o great_a be_v his_o sin_n such_o a_o sin_n be_v call_v rebellion_n 1_o sam._n 15._o and_o rebellion_n be_v as_o the_o sin_n of_o witchcraft_n now_o what_o professor_n be_v there_o of_o the_o gospel_n but_o do_v know_v that_o he_o ought_v to_o avoid_v evil_a company_n possible_o a_o poor_a ignorant_a profane_a man_n may_v not_o know_v his_o duty_n in_o this_o case_n but_o a_o professor_n know_v his_o duty_n and_o therefore_o as_o it_o be_v evil_a in_o any_o man_n to_o keep_v bad_a company_n so_o it_o be_v worse_a for_o a_o professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o do_v it_o but_o three_o in_o the_o three_o place_n it_o be_v worst_a of_o all_o in_o a_o member_n of_o a_o church_n for_o he_o sin_n against_o his_o present_a remedy_n sin_n against_o remedy_n be_v the_o worst_a sort_n of_o sin_n it_o be_v a_o grievous_a sin_n for_o any_o young_a unmarried_a man_n to_o commit_v fornication_n but_o if_o a_o man_n be_v marry_v and_o do_v commit_v adultery_n he_o sin_v worse_a why_o because_o he_o sin_n against_o remedy_n and_o because_o he_o have_v a_o remedy_n by_o he_o so_o here_o it_o be_v ill_a for_o any_o man_n to_o keep_v ill_a company_n but_o worst_a for_o a_o member_n of_o a_o church_n why_o because_o he_o sin_n against_o a_o remedy_n he_o have_v communion_n with_o the_o saint_n he_o have_v good_a company_n by_o he_o a_o remedy_n by_o he_o and_o therefore_o for_o he_o to_o keep_v bad_a company_n be_v the_o worst_a of_o all_o the_o more_o any_o man_n despise_v the_o way_n and_o ordinance_n of_o god_n by_o his_o sin_n the_o great_a be_v his_o sin_n now_o if_o you_o look_v into_o scripture_n you_o shall_v find_v that_o when_o a_o man_n have_v two_o thing_n before_o he_o &_o do_v choose_v the_o one_o and_o refuse_v the_o other_o look_v what_o that_o be_v that_o he_o leave_v that_o he_o be_v say_v to_o hate_n and_o despise_v now_o a_o member_n of_o a_o church_n have_v two_o sort_n of_o company_n before_o he_o and_o therefore_o if_o he_o shall_v choose_v to_o walk_v with_o those_o that_o be_v evil_a he_o be_v say_v in_o scripture_n language_n to_o hate_n and_o despise_v the_o company_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o be_v it_o a_o small_a thing_n in_o your_o eye_n to_o hate_v or_o despise_v the_o company_n and_o communion_n of_o the_o saint_n object_n why_o but_o though_o i_o do_v keep_v company_n sometime_o with_o those_o that_o be_v wicked_a yet_o i_o do_v not_o despise_v or_o hate_v the_o company_n of_o the_o saint_n for_o i_o keep_v company_n with_o they_o too_o ans_fw-fr that_o be_v strange_a strange_a in_o regard_n of_o yourself_o strange_a in_o regard_n of_o other_o strange_a in_o regard_n of_o yourself_o for_o if_o you_o find_v any_o savour_n in_o good_a company_n be_v it_o not_o strange_a that_o you_o shall_v not_o refrain_v bad_a company_n sure_o good_a company_n will_v either_o eat_v out_o the_o heart_n of_o your_o bad_a company_n or_o bad_a company_n will_v eat_v out_o the_o savour_n of_o your_o good_a company_n strange_a therefore_o it_o be_v if_o you_o shall_v keep_v both_o company_n strange_a in_o regard_n of_o yourself_o and_o strange_a also_o it_o be_v in_o regard_n of_o other_o when_o the_o deer_n be_v shoot_v the_o rest_n of_o that_o herd_n will_v push_v he_o out_o from_o among_o they_o and_o if_o you_o be_v shoot_v with_o the_o arrow_n of_o bad_a company_n it_o be_v strange_a that_o the_o rest_n ●f_o your_o herd_n shall_v not_o push_v you_o out_o of_o their_o society_n and_o avoid_v you_o because_o you_o will_v not_o avoid_v other_o but_o second_o you_o say_v that_o you_o keep_v company_n with_o the_o good_a too_o but_o i_o pray_v tell_v i_o be_v it_o not_o the_o mud_n of_o the_o good_a company_n that_o you_o converse_v withal_o as_o in_o a_o river_n or_o pond_n there_o be_v water_n and_o mudd_n so_o in_o all_o good_a company_n there_o be_v the_o water_n of_o life_n and_o there_o be_v the_o mud_n of_o their_o infirmity_n and_o vanity_n if_o it_o be_v the_o mud_n of_o good_a company_n that_o you_o converse_v with_o then_o do_v you_o keep_v bad_a company_n even_o while_o you_o converse_v with_o those_o that_o be_v good_a but_o again_o three_o you_o say_v you_o keep_v company_n with_o both_o good_a and_o bad_a bad_a and_o good_a but_o who_o be_v thou_o that_o do_v so_o i_o read_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n that_o those_o creature_n which_o live_v both_o in_o the_o land_n and_o in_o the_o water_n be_v count_v unclean_a i_o read_v also_o in_o scripture_n of_o a_o sincere_a christian_a and_o a_o lukewarm_a professor_n and_o what_o be_v lukewarm_a water_n but_o that_o water_n which_o have_v both_o heat_n and_o cold_a in_o some_o equal_a degree_n and_o what_o be_v the_o lukewarm_a professor_n but_o one_o that_o can_v run_v with_o both_o and_o comply_v with_o both_o company_n i_o read_v in_o hos_n 7._o that_o god_n compare_v the_o decline_a people_n of_o israel_n unto_o a_o cake_n dough-baked_a bake_v on_o the_o one_o side_n and_o not_o on_o the_o other_o why_o but_o because_o they_o be_v for_o god_n and_o idol_n too_o they_o can_v walk_v and_o converse_v with_o both_o so_o now_o when_o man_n be_v for_o both_o company_n they_o can_v stand_v with_o the_o saint_n and_o they_o can_v stand_v with_o sinner_n they_o can_v sit_v with_o the_o scornful_a and_o they_o can_v sit_v with_o the_o faithful_a they_o can_v go_v in_o and_o out_o with_o god_n people_n and_o they_o can_v go_v in_o and_o out_o with_o the_o wicked_a what_o do_v this_o argue_n but_o that_o they_o be_v dough-baked_a and_o lukewarm_a professor_n yet_o fourthly_a if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o among_o we_o which_o god_n forbid_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o speak_v three_o or_o four_o word_n unto_o they_o you_o say_v you_o can_v walk_v with_o both_o good_a and_o bad_a but_o what_o comfort_n can_v you_o have_v in_o walk_v at_o all_o with_o those_o that_o be_v bad_a mr._n dod_n say_v once_o there_o be_v two_o question_n which_o if_o a_o man_n can_v right_o answer_v he_o may_v have_v comfort_n in_o every_o condition_n the_o first_o question_n be_v what_o be_o i_o the_o second_o question_n be_v where_o be_o i_o if_o say_v he_o in_o answer_n to_o the_o first_o what_o be_o i_o i_o can_v true_o say_v i_o be_o godly_a i_o be_o in_o christ_n i_o be_o one_o of_o
