behold_v iniquity_n i._n e._n with_o the_o least_o allowance_n and_o approbation_n it_o have_v such_o a_o contrary_a tendency_n to_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n and_o purity_n and_o truth_n that_o

like_o fire_n will_v swift_o issue_v forth_o and_o devour_v the_o impure_a sinner_n the_o business_n then_o of_o religion_n be_v to_o restore_v the_o image_n of_o god_n in_o our_o soul_n which_o be_v

be_v well_o settle_v in_o our_o soul_n than_o the_o glorious_a image_n of_o god_n will_v shine_v bright_o upon_o they_o and_o they_o will_v be_v as_o so_o many_o light_n to_o guide_v other_o who_o in_o a_o low_a station_n be_v strive_v to_o come_v up_o to_o our_o example_n but_o be_v we_o admit_v into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n before_o a_o entire_a change_n be_v wrought_v in_o our_o mind_n and_o all_o our_o lust_n be_v mortify_v as_o we_o shall_v be_v odious_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o god_n so_o his_o holiness_n and_o purity_n will_v fright_v and_o amaze_v we_o and_o our_o pollute_a soul_n will_v sink_v and_o die_v away_o at_o the_o appearance_n of_o so_o much_o goodness_n and_o wisdom_n and_o truth_n and_o not_o find_v within_o themselves_o the_o least_o capacity_n to_o be_v delight_v with_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v the_o true_a cause_n of_o all_o the_o glory_n and_o joy_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n the_o mighty_a design_n i_o say_v of_o all_o religion_n be_v to_o make_v our_o

all_o our_o fellow-creature_n this_o be_v a_o god_n like_o temper_n whereby_o we_o shall_v extreme_o resemble_v our_o great_a maker_n and_o become_v his_o deputy_n upon_o earth_n and_o perform_v that_o very_a work_n which_o otherwise_o god_n will_v have_v do_v himself_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v banish_v out_o of_o our_o soul_n all_o rancour_n and_o malice_n and_o pride_n and_o envy_n when_o we_o shall_v have_v subdue_v all_o covetous_a and_o greedy_a desire_n all_o fleshly_a and_o filthy_a appetite_n all_o peevishness_n and_o uneasiness_n of_o humour_n then_o will_v our_o soul_n become_v a_o most_o fit_a and_o suitable_a place_n for_o the_o holy_a spirit_n to_o reside_v in_o and_o our_o god_n will_v delight_v to_o dwell_v in_o we_o and_o we_o shall_v have_v foreta_v of_o the_o joy_n of_o heaven_n even_o while_o we_o remain_v here_o upon_o earth_n if_o we_o relieve_v the_o needy_a and_o refresh_v the_o distress_a if_o we_o satisfy_v the_o doubt_n confirm_v the_o waver_a conduct_v into_o the_o right_a path_n those_o that_o be_v go_v astray_o if_o we_o do_v no_o hurt_n to_o the_o innocent_a do_v not_o crush_v the_o weak_a nor_o overreach_v the_o ignorant_a but_o be_v helpful_a to_o all_o as_o far_o as_o our_o power_n will_v extend_v what_o a_o mighty_a deal_n of_o good_a shall_v we_o do_v to_o the_o world_n in_o the_o place_n and_o stead_n of_o god_n and_o how_o evident_a

and_o the_o chief_a end_n of_o it_o be_v to_o glorify_v god_n by_o a_o imitation_n of_o he_o in_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o our_o life_n this_o be_v the_o great_a doctrine_n teach_v by_o the_o

though_o false_a teacher_n will_v undertake_v to_o persuade_v you_o that_o you_o may_v do_v such_o thing_n without_o lose_v the_o love_n of_o god_n yet_o your_o poor_a soul_n will_v be_v wretched_o

present_a world_n for_o without_o these_o heavenly_a and_o divine_a qualification_n of_o mind_n we_o shall_v never_o be_v permit_v to_o behold_v the_o pure_a and_o glorious_a face_n of_o god_n and_o if_o we_o be_v it_o will_v confound_v we_o and_o make_v we_o miserable_a let_v then_o evil_a ruler_n connive_v at_o those_o vice_n which_o do_v not_o seem_v so_o direct_o to_o hazard_v and_o

that_o they_o be_v all_o level_v at_o this_o single_a mark_n to_o make_v man_n holy_a that_o be_v to_o confer_v the_o great_a benefit_n upon_o they_o they_o be_v capable_a to_o receive_v for_o this_o

this_o one_o point_n do_v all_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o whole_a design_n of_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n centre_n and_o settle_v there_o be_v not_o a_o promise_n make_v to_o

and_o all_o the_o curse_n and_o punishment_n do_v light_a upon_o the_o head_n of_o the_o sinner_n and_o so_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o our_o religion_n be_v enact_v and_o publish_v not_o to_o
