who_o matter_n be_v not_o of_o natural_a but_o only_o of_o positive_a right_n which_o happen_v as_o often_o as_o law_n be_v enact_v about_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o their_o own_o nature_n indifferent_a now_o it_o be_v certain_a these_o matter_n do_v not_o direct_o belong_v to_o god_n cause_n and_o yet_o they_o do_v consequential_o because_o indifferent_a thing_n do_v general_o carry_v in_o they_o the_o advantage_n and_o encouragement_n of_o necessary_a thing_n and_o whether_o they_o do_v or_o no_o god_n will_v have_v our_o obedience_n approve_v in_o indifferent_a thing_n as_o well_o as_o necessary_a we_o conclude_v therefore_o that_o moral_a thing_n which_o be_v most_o common_o the_o matter_n of_o human_a law_n be_v god_n cause_n by_o antecedent_n relation_n and_o that_o indifferent_a thing_n when_o they_o once_o be_v make_v matter_n of_o human_a law_n do_v then_o become_v god_n cause_n by_o espousal_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o both_o be_v charge_v upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n by_o the_o apostle_n and_o both_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o god_n or_o in_o case_n they_o be_v not_o observe_v the_o animadversion_n upon_o those_o that_o do_v not_o observe_v they_o be_v no_o less_o than_o a_o judgement_n execute_v in_o god_n behalf_n iii_o the_o issue_n of_o judgement_n be_v god_n end_n the_o political_a end_n of_o judgement_n be_v the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o law_n the_o secure_n of_o right_n the_o encouragement_n of_o industry_n and_o the_o establish_n of_o peace_n in_o which_o consist_v that_o political_a happiness_n that_o every_o government_n aim_v at_o but_o god_n have_v a_o great_a end_n in_o it_o than_o all_o this_o and_o that_o be_v the_o make_n of_o man_n internal_o good_a and_o virtuous_a and_o lay_v in_o they_o the_o foundation_n of_o a_o future_a happiness_n a_o happiness_n that_o will_v last_v when_o all_o the_o polity_n of_o the_o world_n be_v pass_v off_o the_o stage_n and_o expire_v so_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o look_v upon_o judgement_n as_o a_o part_n of_o god_n providence_n whereby_o he_o govern_v the_o world_n to_o his_o most_o holy_a purpose_n for_o as_o we_o all_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n have_v a_o providence_n whereby_o he_o do_v govern_v the_o world_n so_o if_o we_o inquire_v into_o the_o nature_n and_o end_n of_o that_o providence_n we_o shall_v find_v it_o to_o be_v no_o other_o than_o a_o series_n of_o several_a method_n to_o make_v man_n good_a to_o which_o end_v this_o of_o human_a judgement_n be_v conduce_v in_o the_o most_o eminent_a manner_n for_o no_o doubt_n but_o judgement_n be_v the_o great_a possible_a external_n bond_n of_o human_a virtue_n and_o the_o most_o effectual_a check_n of_o disorderly_a passion_n it_o guard_v man_n from_o do_v ill_o by_o a_o wholesome_a fear_n and_o those_o that_o have_v do_v ill_o it_o bring_v to_o repentance_n by_o suffer_v insomuch_o that_o in_o the_o scripture_n it_o be_v recommend_v as_o the_o great_a disposition_n to_o christianity_n and_o the_o great_a preparatory_a to_o the_o salvation_n of_o god_n for_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n speak_v of_o the_o come_v of_o our_o saviour_n and_o explain_v as_o it_o be_v that_o future_a message_n of_o john_n the_o baptist_n prepare_v you_o the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n he_o do_v it_o in_o these_o word_n isaiah_n lvi_o 1._o thus_o say_v the_o lord_n keep_v you_o judgement_n and_o do_v justice_n for_o my_o salvation_n be_v near_o to_o come_v and_o my_o righteousness_n to_o be_v reveal_v and_o to_o the_o same_o sense_n be_v that_o passage_n psalm_n xcvii_o

his_o throne_n as_o if_o according_a to_o the_o ordinary_a nature_n of_o thing_n god_n can_v not_o reign_v where_o the_o government_n do_v not_o assert_v he_o he_o may_v in_o compassion_n hover_v over_o a_o people_n but_o he_o can_v never_o pitch_v his_o tent_n and_o dwell_v among_o they_o unless_o the_o magistrate_n fix_v he_o a_o throne_n by_o look_v to_o that_o point_n which_o s._n paul_n therefore_o call_v the_o very_a end_n of_o magistracy_n viz._n to_o be_v a_o terror_n to_o evil_a doer_n and_o a_o praise_n to_o they_o that_o do_v well_o thus_o god_n have_v put_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o magistrate_n not_o only_o a_o godlike_a power_n but_o likewise_o the_o power_n of_o a_o godlike_a retaliation_n for_o as_o he_o make_v they_o govern_v so_o they_o may_v and_o who_o question_n but_o that_o they_o ought_v to_o make_v he_o govern_v reciprocal_o i_o know_v indeed_o that_o god_n have_v have_v a_o church_n in_o the_o world_n and_o that_o the_o most_o glorious_a church_n that_o ever_o be_v in_o the_o world_n without_o the_o assistance_n of_o magistrate_n but_o that_o be_v in_o a_o age_n of_o visible_a miracle_n and_o at_o a_o time_n when_o the_o world_n and_o the_o church_n stand_v notorious_o distinguish_v and_o while_o those_o that_o be_v of_o the_o church_n be_v keep_v so_o humble_a by_o persecution_n and_o mortify_v by_o poverty_n and_o sober_a by_o the_o daily_a expectation_n of_o death_n that_o they_o need_v no_o other_o law_n to_o restrain_v their_o appetite_n but_o now_o that_o the_o world_n itself_o be_v come_v into_o the_o church_n and_o man_n can_v maintain_v their_o temporal_a hope_n and_o passion_n and_o their_o christian_a profession_n together_o it_o be_v impossible_a but_o that_o the_o tare_n of_o common_a corruption_n shall_v choke_v and_o waste_v the_o good_a seed_n unless_o the_o magistrate_n step_v in_o to_o weed_n and_o to_o pluck_v up_o and_o assist_v in_o the_o cultivation_n of_o the_o field_n iv._o the_o formal_a judgement_n i._n e._n the_o sentence_n of_o judgement_n be_v god_n sentence_n for_o say_v the_o psalmist_n god_n be_v judge_v himself_o psal._n 1._o 6._o and_o though_o delegated_a power_n act_v for_o he_o at_o present_a and_o pass_v the_o sentence_n yet_o he_o recognize_v and_o impute_v that_o sentence_n and_o take_v it_o into_o his_o own_o account_n we_o be_v aware_a that_o god_n have_v appoint_v a_o day_n in_o the_o which_o he_o will_v judge_v the_o world_n in_o righteousness_n and_o the_o rule_n of_o proceed_v in_o that_o day_n as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n avouch_v shall_v be_v this_o viz._n man_n shall_v reap_v as_o they_o sow_v and_o he_o that_o have_v do_v wrong_a shall_v receive_v for_o the_o wrong_n that_o he_o have_v do_v now_o the_o very_a same_o be_v the_o rule_n of_o all_o human_a judicature_n we_o ought_v to_o look_v upon_o every_o judicial_a session_n here_o to_o be_v no_o other_o than_o a_o particular_a dispatch_n of_o business_n subordinate_a and_o preparatory_a to_o the_o universal_a judgement_n thus_o when_o wrong_n be_v recompense_v by_o human_a judgement_n the_o judgement_n of_o god_n be_v so_o far_o prevent_v if_o indeed_o the_o sentence_n itself_o happen_v to_o be_v wrong_n and_o injurious_a then_o in_o the_o psalmist_n style_n the_o poor_a commit_v himself_o to_o god_n that_o he_o may_v take_v the_o matter_n into_o his_o own_o hand_n thus_o i_o say_v it_o happen_v shall_v the_o sentence_n of_o judgement_n be_v in_o itself_o wrong_a and_o injurious_a but_o both_o the_o law_n and_o good_a manner_n look_v upon_o this_o as_o the_o supposition_n of_o a_o impossible_a thing_n turpe_fw-la est_fw-la impossibile_fw-it say_v the_o rule_n of_o law_n and_o therefore_o without_o far_a suppose_v it_o i_o shall_v form_v this_o conclusion_n viz._n that_o every_o sentence_n of_o human_a judgement_n be_v ingredient_n to_o the_o retribution_n of_o the_o great_a day_n and_o that_o all_o that_o man_n suffer_v here_o for_o their_o crime_n if_o they_o suffer_v it_o with_o a_o just_a sense_n of_o their_o crime_n shall_v then_o be_v impute_v to_o such_o a_o measure_n of_o their_o purgation_n and_o all_o the_o impunity_n that_o gild_n meet_v with_o here_o shall_v be_v reckon_v for_o in_o the_o sentence_n that_o shall_v then_o be_v pass_v i_o say_v not_o that_o a_o man_n may_v work_v out_o his_o future_a absolution_n by_o
