set_v upon_o thing_n that_o be_v spiritual_a therefore_o i_o have_v life_n and_o peace_n so_o conscience_n also_o judge_v of_o the_o state_n of_o sin_n 8.6_o those_o that_o live_v after_o the_o flesh_n shall_v die_v say_v the_o word_n but_o say_v conscience_n my_o life_n be_v lead_v after_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o lust_n of_o it_o therefore_o i_o shall_v die_v 8.13_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v condemn_v already_o say_v the_o word_n but_o say_v conscience_n i_o do_v not_o believe_v therefore_o i_o be_o in_o the_o state_n of_o condemnation_n the_o word_n say_v a_o good_a tree_n bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n 3.18_o and_o a_o corrupt_a tree_n bring_v forth_o corrupt_a fruit_n but_o say_v conscience_n my_o work_n and_o my_o course_n be_v corrupt_a and_o naught_o therefore_o so_o be_v my_o heart_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o conscience_n do_v it_o by_o reason_v and_o this_o conscience_n can_v very_o well_o do_v 1._o because_o conscience_n have_v a_o very_a good_a judgement_n it_o be_v a_o very_a wise_a and_o judicious_a faculty_n in_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n some_o make_v it_o a_o act_n of_o judgement_n we_o do_v not_o take_v it_o so_o it_o be_v not_o a_o act_n of_o judgement_n but_o it_o be_v a_o reflexive_a faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n have_v a_o very_a good_a judgement_n whether_o it_o be_v right_a to_o obey_v you_o rather_o than_o god_n judge_v you_o say_v peter_n act_v 4.19_o appeal_n to_o their_o own_o conscience_n to_o judge_v in_o the_o point_n so_o that_o conscience_n be_v a_o faculty_n of_o a_o good_a judgement_n now_o if_o it_o be_v judicious_a it_o must_v needs_o be_v able_a to_o reason_n and_o to_o argue_v about_o our_o estate_n and_o find_v out_o whether_o they_o be_v good_a or_o no._n it_o be_v the_o judgement_n of_o man_n that_o be_v able_a to_o argue_v and_o able_a to_o hold_v a_o argument_n we_o thus_o judge_v say_v the_o apostle_n that_o if_o one_o die_v for_o all_o then_o be_v all_o dead_a 2._o cor._n 5.14_o mark_v his_o proposition_n he_o will_v prove_v be_v that_o all_o the_o believer_n in_o christ_n be_v dead_a to_o themselves_o and_o alive_a unto_o god_n now_o you_o may_v see_v how_o his_o judgement_n make_v here_o a_o argument_n if_o christ_n die_v for_o they_o all_o than_o they_o be_v all_o dead_a but_o christ_n die_v for_o they_o all_o therefore_o they_o be_v all_o dead_a judgement_n be_v able_a to_o make_v argument_n and_o therefore_o if_o conscience_n be_v a_o reflexive_a faculty_n that_o have_v a_o very_a good_a judgement_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v able_a to_o frame_v argument_n and_o so_o make_v out_o what_o our_o estate_n be_v 2._o because_o there_o be_v natural_a logic_n in_o every_o man_n conscience_n it_o can_v frame_v syllogism_n thus_o as_o many_o as_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n say_v the_o word_n but_o say_v a_o godly_a man_n conscience_n i_o be_o lead_v by_o god_n spirit_n and_o i_o be_o careful_a to_o follow_v the_o lead_n of_o god_n holy_a spirit_n therefore_o i_o be_o one_o of_o god_n son_n and_o so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n you_o will_v say_v how_o can_v a_o countryman_n conscience_n make_v syllogism_n it_o be_v only_o for_o scholar_n and_o such_o as_o have_v study_v logic_n in_o the_o school_n to_o make_v syllogism_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a artificial_a logic_n be_v only_o among_o scholar_n but_o there_o be_v natural_a logic_n in_o conscience_n which_o do_v not_o stand_v upon_o form_n the_o godly_a people_n at_o rome_n be_v never_o bring_v up_o at_o university_n yet_o the_o apostle_n tell_v they_o they_o have_v logic_n enough_o to_o argue_v themselves_o to_o be_v dead_a unto_o sin_n and_o alive_a unto_o god_n through_o christ_n likewise_o also_o 6.11_o say_v he_o reckon_v you_o yourselves_o to_o be_v dead_a indeed_o unto_o sin_n but_o alive_a unto_o god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n the_o original_n be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d exercise_v so_o much_o logic_n in_o yourselves_o like_o good_a logician_n prove_v yourselves_o to_o be_v dead_a unto_o sin_n and_o alive_a to_o god_n so_o that_o you_o see_v there_o be_v natural_a logic_n in_o conscience_n and_o therefore_o conscience_n be_v able_a to_o frame_v argument_n about_o our_o estate_n and_o to_o inform_v we_o what_o it_o be_v iii_o this_o the_o three_o thing_n i_o propound_v to_o consider_v be_v when_o conscience_n do_v this_o this_o be_v a_o very_a necessary_a point_n and_o indeed_o so_o they_o be_v all_o but_o this_o more_o especial_o i_o have_v show_v that_o conscience_n be_v able_a to_o inform_v we_o what_o estate_n we_o be_v in_o whether_o of_o grace_n or_o nature_n but_o when_o do_v it_o perform_v this_o i_o answer_v i_o need_v not_o so_o much_o speak_v of_o the_o godly_a because_o they_o do_v mark_v conscience_n but_o let_v i_o speak_v of_o such_o as_o be_v foolish_a disobedient_a serve_v divers_a lust_n who_o never_o have_v yet_o the_o wash_n of_o regeneration_n nor_o the_o renew_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n i_o answer_v about_o they_o 1._o their_o conscience_n must_v needs_o have_v a_o time_n when_o to_o do_v it_o i_o do_v remember_v my_o fault_n this_o day_n say_v pharaoh_n butler_n gen._n 41.9_o his_o conscience_n do_v inform_v he_o and_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o his_o conscience_n do_v inform_v he_o 2._o conscience_n will_v choose_v a_o time_n by_o itself_o it_o will_v inform_v a_o wicked_a man_n solemn_o and_o punctual_o of_o his_o rot_a and_o curse_a estate_n he_o be_v in_o i_o say_v it_o will_v have_v a_o solemn_a time_n by_o itself_o for_o this_o if_o it_o can_v have_v it_o but_o a_o wicked_a man_n take_v a_o order_n with_o his_o conscience_n that_o it_o shall_v not_o tell_v he_o solemn_o how_o it_o be_v with_o he_o neither_o will_v he_o find_v a_o time_n to_o suffer_v it_o as_o it_o be_v with_o felix_n when_o his_o conscience_n begin_v to_o grumble_v against_o he_o when_o paul_n have_v tell_v he_o of_o righteousness_n and_o of_o judgement_n he_o tremble_v his_o conscience_n begin_v to_o stir_v and_o will_v then_o have_v solemn_o deal_v with_o he_o indeed_o but_o he_o shuffle_v it_o off_o and_o will_v not_o find_v time_n 24.25_o go_v thy_o way_n at_o this_o time_n say_v he_o to_o paul_n i_o will_v hear_v thou_o at_o a_o more_o convenient_a time_n and_o so_o he_o say_v to_o his_o conscience_n too_o conscience_n will_v take_v a_o solemn_a and_o set_a time_n to_o inform_v man_n what_o their_o estate_n be_v but_o man_n will_v not_o suffer_v they_o and_o therefore_o conscience_n be_v fain_o to_o take_v such_o sudden_a time_n as_o it_o can_v get_v you_o will_v ask_v what_o time_n be_v they_o interline_v i_o answer_v first_o when_o conscience_n interline_v as_o for_o example_n in_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n while_o man_n be_v hear_v the_o word_n it_o may_v be_v the_o preacher_n preach_v of_o holiness_n and_o a_o wicked_a man_n hear_v it_o but_o i_o have_v it_o not_o say_v his_o conscience_n mark_v his_o conscience_n interline_v it_o may_v be_v the_o preacher_n be_v preach_v how_o desperate_o careless_a man_n be_v of_o their_o soul_n how_o they_o look_v to_o every_o thing_n more_o than_o to_o they_o conscience_n interline_v this_o be_v my_o case_n it_o may_v be_v he_o be_v preach_v against_o adultery_n this_o sin_n i_o have_v commit_v say_v a_o guilty_a conscience_n or_o against_o rush_v upon_o god_n ordinance_n without_o preparation_n this_o be_v my_o constant_a course_n say_v a_o evil_a man_n conscience_n it_o may_v be_v the_o preacher_n be_v preach_v of_o conversion_n and_o become_v a_o new_a creature_n in_o christ_n this_o i_o be_o yet_o to_o seek_v in_o say_v conscience_n thus_o conscience_n interline_v though_o the_o man_n hear_v on_o and_o it_o may_v be_v take_v little_a to_o heart_n yet_o conscience_n interline_v a_o sudden_a information_n of_o his_o wretched_a estate_n like_o a_o bi●d_n that_o fly_v by_o or_o like_o a_o swift-shot_a arrow_n that_o be_v present_o out_o of_o sight_n so_o it_o may_v be_v a_o man_n take_v very_o little_a notice_n of_o it_o like_o the_o forename_a felix_n 25._o as_o paul_n be_v preach_v of_o righteousness_n and_o temperance_n i_o have_v it_o not_o say_v his_o conscience_n and_o of_o judgement_n to_o come_v what_o shall_v i_o do_v then_o say_v his_o conscience_n thus_o conscience_n interline_v and_o make_v he_o tremble_v on_o a_o sudden_a like_o a_o sudden_a shiver_a of_o a_o cold_a or_o a_o sudden_a startle_v of_o a_o man_n affright_v and_o away_o it_o be_v go_v quick_o i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v your_o own_o bosom_n do_v you_o not_o feel_v this_o now_o and_o then_o at_o a_o sermon_n when_o you_o hear_v it_o do_v not_o your_o conscience_n interline_v our_o sermon_n and_o put_v in_o parenthesis_n now_o and_o then_o when_o you_o

every_o day_n eye_n the_o brazen_a serpent_n justification_n be_v a_o ever-running_a fountain_n and_o therefore_o we_o can_v look_v to_o have_v all_o the_o water_n at_o once_o a_o fountain_n ever_o run_v anew_o so_o justification_n ever_o flow_v anew_o and_o we_o must_v go_v to_o it_o christ_n be_v a_o priest_n for_o ever_o after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedec_n o_o let_v we_o sue_v out_o every_o day_n a_o daily_a pardon_n of_o course_n let_v we_o not_o sleep_v one_o night_n without_o a_o new_a pardon_n better_a sleep_n in_o a_o house_n full_a of_o adder_n and_o venomous_a beast_n than_o sleep_v in_o one_o sin_n o_o then_o be_v sure_a with_o the_o day_n to_o clear_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o day_n then_o shall_v our_o conscience_n have_v true_a peace_n object_n but_o how_o if_o i_o have_v relapse_v what_o shall_v i_o do_v then_o i_o answer_v sol._n every_o man_n that_o fall_v do_v not_o fall_v on_o all_o four_o as_o we_o use_v to_o say_v he_o do_v not_o fall_v quite_o there_o be_v degree_n of_o fall_v as_o in_o a_o sick_a man_n though_o he_o be_v ill_a yet_o he_o be_v not_o by_o and_o by_o dead_a some_o life_n remain_v still_o which_o will_v look_v out_o towards_o health_n again_o so_o there_o be_v so_o much_o life_n in_o justification_n as_o to_o recover_v thou_o again_o be_v constant_a therefore_o in_o this_o course_n ever_o go_v to_o christ_n ever_o wash_v in_o this_o fountain_n ever_o bring_v thy_o soul_n hither_o to_o be_v cleanse_v and_o then_o thy_o conscience_n ever_o shall_v have_v peace_n 4._o four_o if_o we_o will_v maintain_v our_o peace_n then_o let_v we_o labour_n to_o be_v constant_a in_o obedience_n to_o jesus_n christ_n whosoever_o keep_v his_o word_n in_o he_o very_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n perfect_v and_o hereby_o know_v we_o that_o we_o be_v in_o he_o 1._o john_n 2._o 5._o mark_v hereby_o our_o conscience_n may_v tell_v we_o that_o we_o be_v right_a and_o speak_v peace_n to_o we_o if_o we_o keep_v his_o word_n ii_o question_n how_o the_o peace_n of_o conscience_n do_v depend_v upon_o our_o care_n and_o our_o obedience_n the_o reason_n why_o i_o raise_v this_o question_n be_v this_o because_o as_o our_o justification_n be_v only_o in_o christ_n so_o our_o peace_n be_v only_o in_o he_o how_o then_o do_v the_o peace_n of_o our_o conscience_n depend_v on_o obedience_n the_o place_n of_o scripture_n that_o occasion_v the_o doubt_n be_v 1._o pet._n 3.21_o the_o answer_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n towards_o god_n by_o the_o resurrection_n of_o jesus_n christ._n it_o be_v by_o christ_n how_o depend_v it_o then_o on_o our_o obedience_n answ_n 1._o a_o good_a conscience_n do_v not_o depend_v upon_o our_o obedience_n as_o the_o principal_a cause_n of_o it_o but_o upon_o justification_n which_o we_o have_v by_o christ_n if_o we_o be_v in_o he_o rom._n 5.1_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n we_o have_v peace_n with_o god_n through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n you_o see_v then_o that_o our_o peace_n be_v ground_v upon_o our_o justification_n as_o the_o principal_a cause_n of_o it_o if_o we_o shall_v seek_v for_o peace_n from_o our_o work_n and_o obedience_n alas_o they_o be_v sinful_a and_o defective_a there_o be_v no_o peace_n to_o be_v find_v in_o they_o our_o conscience_n will_v be_v trouble_v at_o our_o best_a duty_n at_o our_o weakness_n in_o prayer_n our_o frailty_n in_o hear_v our_o slip_n in_o every_o holy_a service_n there_o be_v nothing_o we_o do_v but_o our_o conscience_n may_v find_v fault_n with_o it_o and_o pick_v a_o hole_n in_o it_o and_o therefore_o we_o have_v need_v to_o fly_v unto_o christ_n for_o true_a peace_n no_o wonder_n then_o that_o papist_n have_v not_o true_a peace_n but_o profess_o say_v that_o every_o man_n must_v doubt_v and_o no_o man_n can_v be_v sure_a of_o his_o salvation_n they_o must_v needs_o doubt_v indeed_o who_o trust_n to_o their_o own_o work_n which_o can_v never_o bring_v true_a peace_n the_o conscience_n must_v ever_o be_v quarrel_v and_o find_v of_o fault_n and_o be_v without_o peace_n if_o we_o trust_v to_o the_o best_a work_n so_o that_o this_o be_v the_o first_o answer_n all_o true_a peace_n depend_v upon_o justification_n by_o faith_n in_o christ_n as_o the_o principal_a cause_n second_o we_o answer_v that_o our_o peace_n depend_v upon_o our_o obedience_n in_o this_o sort_n that_o we_o can_v have_v no_o peace_n except_o we_o be_v give_v to_o obedience_n those_o man_n that_o can_v sin_n and_o yet_o be_v at_o peace_n be_v never_o justify_v in_o their_o life_n a_o child_n of_o god_n when_o he_o sin_v as_o for_o example_n if_o he_o shall_v be_v tempt_v to_o lie_v or_o to_o omit_v a_o good_a duty_n which_o he_o know_v he_o be_v bind_v to_o perform_v yet_o this_o will_v much_o trouble_v his_o conscience_n his_o soul_n will_v be_v ashamed_a his_o heart_n perplex_v he_o will_v not_o know_v how_o to_o look_v the_o lord_n in_o the_o face_n i_o have_v sin_v what_o shall_v i_o do_v unto_o thou_o o_o thou_o preserver_n of_o man_n when_o david_n have_v sin_v against_o god_n i_o be_o trouble_v say_v he_o 28.6_o and_o i_o go_v mourn_v all_o the_o day_n long_o and_o therefore_o peace_n of_o conscience_n do_v depend_v thus_o far_o on_o obedience_n as_o that_o a_o man_n can_v have_v peace_n unless_o he_o be_v obedient_a and_o take_v heed_n of_o sin_n and_o labour_n in_o all_o thing_n to_o be_v upright_o before_o god_n sol._n now_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o but_o how_o do_v our_o peace_n depend_v upon_o our_o obedience_n i_o answer_v it_o depend_v upon_o obedience_n as_o the_o remove_a cause_n it_o remove_v that_o which_o will_v hinder_v our_o peace_n sin_n will_v interrupt_v our_o peace_n now_o obedience_n remove_v sin_n to_o this_o purpose_n the_o apostle_n speak_v 1._o john_n 3.18_o 19_o my_o little_a child_n let_v we_o not_o love_v in_o word_n and_o in_o tongue_n but_o in_o deed_n and_o in_o truth_n for_o hereby_o we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v of_o the_o truth_n and_o shall_v assure_v our_o heart_n before_o god_n hereby_o we_o shall_v assure_v our_o conscience_n that_o we_o be_v in_o he_o if_o we_o take_v heed_n of_o hypocrisy_n if_o we_o love_v in_o truth_n and_o
