ought_v not_o to_o be_v take_v for_o sound_n and_o substantial_a i_o will_v now_o proceed_v remember_v therefore_o that_o i_o set_v down_o two_o reason_n why_o god_n servant_n shall_v take_v heed_n in_o a_o special_a manner_n that_o they_o be_v not_o make_v cold_a in_o their_o love_n as_o christ_n have_v foretell_v it_o shall_v be_v the_o case_n of_o many_o by_o mean_n of_o the_o wickedness_n which_o
they_o shall_v see_v in_o the_o world_n one_o of_o these_o reason_n i_o have_v handle_v and_o that_o be_v see_v it_o shall_v be_v the_o case_n of_o many_o to_o do_v so_o the_o other_o be_v this_o reason_n because_o they_o who_o love_n wax_v cold_a to_o god_n to_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o his_o people_n they_o fall_v also_o from_o the_o duty_n which_o by_o that_o love_n they_o shall_v perform_v or_o which_o be_v all_o one_o with_o it_o they_o do_v they_o to_o no_o purpose_n so_o that_o god_n accept_v they_o not_o according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n if_o i_o give_v all_o my_o good_n to_o the_o poor_a 13.1.2.3_o and_o my_o body_n to_o be_v burn_v and_o have_v no_o love_n and_o though_o i_o speak_v with_o the_o tongue_n of_o angel_n i_o be_o as_o sound_a brass_n or_o a_o tink_v cymbal_n so_o then_o if_o the_o best_a thing_n which_o we_o do_v be_v sin_n without_o this_o love_n it_o follow_v that_o if_o that_o grace_n of_o love_n be_v cold_a and_o dead_a in_o we_o all_o that_o we_o do_v be_v abhor_v of_o god_n i_o have_v now_o speak_v of_o the_o second_o sort_n prophe_n ie_v of_o text_n by_o our_o saviour_n sort_n who_o love_n wax_v cold_a by_o the_o abundance_n of_o iniquity_n which_o they_o see_v in_o the_o world_n and_o this_o i_o have_v do_v as_o brief_o as_o i_o may_v with_o any_o edify_n i_o pass_v to_o the_o three_o namely_o of_o those_o who_o continue_v unto_o the_o end_n in_o a_o godly_a life_n such_o he_o say_v shall_v without_o question_n be_v save_v which_o word_n of_o christ_n must_v wise_o be_v consider_v for_o he_o do_v not_o exclude_v from_o eternal_a life_n all_o such_o as_o have_v leave_v their_o good_a beginning_n for_o a_o season_n if_o they_o do_v bethink_v themselves_o better_o afterward_o and_o return_v again_o to_o the_o lord_n by_o true_a repentance_n for_o else_o none_o of_o the_o last_o mention_v sort_n can_v be_v save_v neither_o do_v he_o exclude_v such_o as_o have_v a_o long_a time_n lead_v a_o wicked_a race_n if_o they_o find_v mercy_n in_o their_o life_n time_n at_o god_n hand_n to_o be_v convert_v for_o if_o it_o be_v so_o then_o none_o of_o the_o first_o sort_n can_v obtain_v eternal_a life_n end_n but_o though_o he_o mean_v such_o as_o continue_v to_o the_o end_n in_o the_o good_a course_n in_o which_o they_o begin_v long_o before_o their_o death_n of_o which_o there_o be_v no_o question_n yet_o he_o mean_v also_o such_o who_o at_o their_o death_n shall_v be_v find_v penitent_a whether_o they_o begin_v then_o or_o whether_o long_o before_o and_o revolt_v or_o turn_v aside_o again_o so_o as_o in_o the_o truth_n of_o their_o heart_n they_o return_v at_o the_o last_o but_o let_v not_o this_o be_v take_v as_o though_o it_o be_v a_o small_a matter_n to_o do_v the_o one_o or_o the_o other_o nay_o rather_o they_o do_v both_o bold_o and_o dangerous_o which_o dare_v tempt_v god_n after_o such_o a_o manner_n yet_o if_o any_o dare_v adventure_n in_o that_o sort_n it_o be_v true_a that_o no_o man_n ought_v to_o debar_v they_o of_o this_o liberty_n that_o if_o they_o confess_v and_o forsake_v their_o sin_n 28.13_o they_o shall_v find_v mercy_n continue_v now_o to_o come_v to_o the_o word_n see_v they_o only_o who_o continue_v to_o the_o end_n shall_v be_v save_v and_o be_v bless_v the_o chief_a point_n here_o to_o be_v debate_v be_v who_o be_v he_o that_o continue_v and_o how_o he_o grow_v to_o it_o well_o the_o answer_n whereto_o be_v at_o hand_n that_o they_o who_o begin_v well_o and_o daily_o go_v forward_o shall_v continue_v to_o the_o end_n and_o thereby_o and_o no_o other_o way_n we_o come_v to_o it_o that_o be_v except_v that_o i_o say_v before_o that_o they_o must_v not_o be_v deny_v mercy_n who_o repent_v at_o last_o of_o both_o these_o therefore_o somewhat_o be_v requisite_a to_o be_v say_v which_o brief_o shall_v be_v do_v and_o of_o the_o first_o the_o less_o see_v in_o show_v before_o in_o the_o first_o point_n how_o

will_v say_v of_o a_o good_a beginning_n that_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o all_o that_o intend_v and_o go_v about_o it_o be_v steadfast_a and_o establish_v therein_o i_o mean_v in_o faith_n in_o

be_v not_o throw_v down_o with_o wind_n nor_o weather_n 7.27_o and_o in_o speak_v of_o this_o so_o worthy_a a_o point_n i_o can_v but_o bewail_v a_o common_a and_o dangerous_a practice_n among_o

that_o if_o they_o will_v never_o so_o fain_o enjoy_v the_o benefit_n of_o both_o they_o know_v not_o how_o to_o go_v about_o it_o or_o else_o they_o seek_v not_o with_o all_o their_o heart_n to_o
