meaning_n of_o the_o word_n to_o be_v let_v they_o that_o be_v not_o yet_o call_v be_v bring_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o thy_o covenant_n and_o the_o bosom_n of_o thy_o church_n that_o as_o we_o

we_o can_v do_v it_o speedy_o for_o like_a lot_n we_o linger_v to_o go_v out_o of_o sodom_n we_o can_v do_v it_o cheerful_o for_o like_o israel_n we_o grudge_v and_o murmur_v in_o the_o way_n to_o

honour_v he_o with_o our_o mouth_n our_o heart_n be_v far_o from_o he_o we_o do_v it_o not_o constant_o and_o without_o weary_v for_o to_o day_n we_o be_v fervent_a and_o to_o morrow_n we_o be_v lukewarm_a neither_o hot_a nor_o cold_a neither_o do_v we_o it_o perfect_o for_o we_o know_v but_o in_o a_o part_n and_o see_v but_o in_o a_o part_n and_o our_o perfection_n be_v lay_v up_o for_o we_o in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v but_o why_o do_v we_o then_o pray_v for_o it_o since_o we_o can_v attain_v to_o it_o i_o answer_v though_o we_o can_v attain_v to_o it_o yet_o we_o shall_v strive_v after_o it_o for_o there_o be_v a_o time_n come_v wherein_o we_o shall_v obtain_v and_o attain_v to_o that_o perfection_n we_o aim_v at_o and_o that_o be_v our_o last_o moment_n and_o day_n of_o our_o

natural_a parent_n he_o call_v upon_o
last_o thing_n remarkable_a in_o the_o word_n be_v the_o person_n at_o who_o hand_n we_o sue_v for_o this_o release_n and_o pardon_v of_o sin_n which_o be_v neither_o man_n nor_o angel_n nor_o saint_n depart_v but_o god_n alone_o for_o all_o these_o with_o the_o wise_a virgin_n have_v ado_n with_o their_o own_o lamp_n except_o this_o only_a to_o wit_n god_n for_o it_o be_v against_o he_o only_o that_o we_o sin_n and_o it_o be_v he_o only_a who_o can_v forgive_v sin_n and_o if_o pardon_v of_o sin_n be_v in_o the_o church_n it_o be_v only_o a_o conditional_a declaration_n no_o absolute_a condonation_n lect_v 17._o as_o we_o for_o give_v our_o debtor_n next_o to_o the_o consideration_n of_o that_o part_n of_o this_o petition_n which_o be_v supplicatory_a we_o come_v to_o that_o which_o be_v restipulatory_a the_o first_o part_n be_v supplicatory_a in_o beg_v pardon_n of_o our_o sin_n against_o god_n this_o carry_v the_o restipulation_n of_o the_o covenant_n and_o promise_v in_o our_o

how_o much_o it_o have_v both_o the_o fair_a provocation_n for_o obedience_n and_o the_o foul_a stumbling_n in_o disobedience_n it_o have_v the_o fair_a provocation_n to_o obedience_n for_o in_o all_o the_o covenant_n that_o god_n have_v make_v with_o man_n there_o be_v none_o like_o to_o this_o god_n have_v make_v three_o covenant_n with_o man_n a_o natural_a a_o legal_a and_o a_o evangelicall_n the_o natural_a covenant_n be_v make_v with_o man_n in_o the_o day_n of_o creation_n the_o legal_a in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o temporal_a redemption_n and_o the_o evangelicall_n in_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n when_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v make_v man_n and_o not_o know_v sin_n be_v make_v sin_n for_o our_o sake_n and_o expiate_v our_o sin_n by_o his_o suffering_n the_o tenor_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n be_v natural_a and_o just_a natural_a because_o he_o make_v man_n in_o nature_n perfect_a and_o just_a because_o he_o require_v nothing_o of_o man_n but_o that_o to_o the_o obedience_n whereof_o he_o have_v give_v he_o natural_a ability_n the_o second_o covenant_n be_v in_o some_o condition_n preternatural_a and_o just_a preternatural_a in_o so_o far_o that_o nature_n can_v not_o obey_v it_o yet_o just_a because_o he_o once_o strengthen_v nature_n to_o obey_v it_o the_o three_o covenant_n be_v supernatural_a and_o gracious_a supernatural_a in_o require_v thing_n that_o nature_n can_v not_o give_v yet_o supernatural_o gracious_a in_o find_v out_o a_o remedy_n for_o the_o defect_n of_o nature_n make_v the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o become_v man_n and_o he_o that_o know_v not_o sin_n to_o be_v make_v sin_n for_o we_o that_o we_o in_o he_o may_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o riches_n of_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n now_o remember_v i_o pray_v you_o what_o i_o have_v say_v i_o say_v that_o this_o covenant_n be_v so_o much_o the_o hard_a by_o how_o much_o the_o provocation_n be_v gracious_a and_o the_o disobedience_n foul_a to_o have_v sin_v against_o the_o covenant_n of_o nature_n be_v foul_a indeed_o because_o nature_n be_v make_v perfect_a and_o able_a to_o do_v what_o be_v require_v of_o the_o natural_a man_n to_o sin_n against_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n which_o i_o call_v preternatural_a be_v foul_a also_o for_o howsoever_o nature_n be_v then_o corrupt_a and_o weak_a yet_o their_o deliverance_n from_o the_o bondage_n of_o egypt_n prefigurate_v to_o they_o the_o hope_n of_o a_o better_a deliverance_n and_o therefore_o render_v the_o smell_n of_o their_o disobedience_n the_o more_o odious_a and_o abominable_a by_o how_o much_o
