faithful_o admonish_v and_o not_o in_o the_o least_o bolster_v up_o in_o our_o wickedness_n if_o when_o we_o see_v ruin_v just_a before_o our_o eye_n we_o will_v not_o go_v out_o of_o our_o way_n to_o avoid_v it_o you_o can_v name_v any_o one_o of_o this_o church_n that_o have_v confident_o prophesy_v of_o glorious_a time_n nor_o above_o one_o impious_a writer_n of_o any_o note_n and_o he_o not_o pretend_v to_o the_o ministry_n that_o have_v lay_v down_o principle_n to_o encourage_v man_n in_o wickedness_n and_o irreligion_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v notwithstanding_o run_v on_o in_o our_o evil_a course_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n we_o have_v no_o heart_n to_o any_o thing_n else_o but_o that_o this_o be_v our_o inclination_n nay_o our_o resolution_n and_o that_o we_o be_v unreformable_a must_v perish_v because_o we_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o be_v save_v in_o god_n way_n but_o to_o hurry_v on_o to_o destruction_n in_o our_o own_o never_o any_o nation_n perhaps_o perish_v if_o we_o must_v be_v undo_v against_o so_o much_o reason_n against_o such_o plain_a warning_n against_o so_o many_o mercy_n to_o invite_v we_o to_o do_v better_o and_o so_o many_o judgement_n to_o deter_v we_o from_o our_o evil_a way_n against_o so_o many_o convince_a instruction_n clear_a and_o rational_a argument_n solid_a confutation_n not_o only_o of_o all_o lewd_a and_o atheistical_a principle_n but_o of_o popery_n and_o of_o all_o fanatical_a doctrine_n there_o can_v be_v nothing_o therefore_o plead_v in_o our_o behalf_n but_o we_o must_v be_v leave_v as_o the_o man_n without_o a_o wedding_n garment_n perfect_o speechless_a a_o sad_a and_o most_o wretched_a condition_n sad_n because_o we_o shall_v be_v extreme_o miserable_a and_o sad_a because_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o say_v why_o we_o be_v so_o frantic_a as_o against_o so_o many_o restraint_n to_o cast_v ourselves_o into_o such_o misery_n which_o i_o beseech_v you_o let_v every_o one_o of_o we_o for_o our_o part_n endeavour_v to_o prevent_v by_o timely_a repentance_n never_o to_o be_v repent_v of_o for_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n i_o have_v show_v you_o still_o want_v for_o our_o preservation_n and_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o further_o in_o the_o last_o place_n 6._o that_o as_o the_o case_n now_o stand_v it_o be_v not_o a_o ordinary_a repentance_n and_o reformation_n that_o will_v serve_v the_o turn_n we_o be_v go_v too_o far_o i_o doubt_v towards_o ruin_n to_o be_v deliver_v without_o some_o extraordinary_a endeavour_n to_o put_v a_o stop_n to_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o must_v say_v to_o you_o for_o a_o conclusion_n of_o all_o as_o our_o lord_n christ_n do_v to_o the_o luke_o warm_a church_n of_o laodicea_n rev._n iii_o 19_o be_v zealous_a therefore_o and_o repent_v repentance_n be_v not_o sufficient_a for_o the_o recovery_n of_o a_o church_n when_o there_o be_v a_o great_a apostasy_n and_o defection_n in_o faith_n and_o in_o manner_n but_o we_o must_v join_v zeal_n with_o it_o which_o be_v a_o pious_a warmth_n in_o our_o affection_n for_o all_o that_o be_v good_a and_o virtuous_a and_o that_o will_v certain_o do_v the_o business_n we_o need_v not_o fear_v then_o the_o most_o desperate_a enemy_n no_o not_o our_o sin_n but_o look_v upon_o all_o the_o judgement_n god_n have_v send_v upon_o we_o as_o token_n of_o his_o love_n to_o we_o if_o they_o awaken_v we_o to_o zealous_a repentance_n for_o so_o our_o saviour_n there_o incourage_v we_o to_o hope_v in_o the_o word_n forego_v as_o many_o as_o i_o love_v i_o rebuke_v &_o chasten_v be_v zealous_a therefore_o and_o repent_v there_o will_v be_v some_o hope_n of_o we_o if_o we_o can_v but_o see_v that_o indifferency_n that_o chillness_n nay_o deadness_n which_o be_v in_o too_o many_o spirit_n turn_v into_o a_o warm_a nay_o burn_a zeal_n both_o in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o for_o his_o service_n i._o be_v zealous_a therefore_o first_o in_o your_o devotion_n of_o which_o i_o have_v speak_v
