of_o severity_n ii_o i_o be_o now_o to_o consider_v the_o different_a consequence_n of_o these_o two_o to_o be_v carnal_o mind_v be_v death_n but_o to_o be_v spiritual_o mind_v be_v life_n and_o peace_n which_o in_o short_a be_v that_o the_o advantage_n be_v far_o great_a which_o come_v to_o mankind_n by_o one_o than_o by_o the_o other_o and_o that_o will_v appear_v by_o compare_v they_o together_o 1._o as_o under_o equal_a circumstance_n 2._o as_o under_o unequal_a circumstance_n 1._o as_o under_o equal_a circumstance_n and_o here_o we_o have_v two_o sort_n of_o person_n to_o consider_v 1._o those_o who_o have_v conviction_n of_o conscience_n go_v along_o with_o a_o carnal_a mind_n such_o who_o look_v on_o the_o condition_n of_o man_n in_o this_o world_n at_o a_o distance_n and_o judge_v only_o by_o appearance_n will_v be_v apt_a to_o think_v that_o those_o who_o do_v allow_v themselves_o all_o the_o liberty_n which_o a_o carnal_a mind_n do_v incline_v they_o to_o have_v very_o much_o the_o advantage_n of_o those_o who_o be_v under_o the_o restraint_n of_o a_o spiritual_a mind_n for_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o severe_a rule_n of_o virtue_n and_o mortification_n to_o deny_v all_o ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o live_v sober_o and_o righteous_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a world_n and_o these_o be_v think_v to_o be_v very_o hard_a thing_n whereas_o such_o who_o be_v not_o under_o these_o difficulty_n seem_v to_o lead_v the_o most_o pleasant_a and_o easy_a life_n enjoy_v themselves_o and_o be_v full_a of_o noise_n and_o confidence_n and_o appear_v to_o be_v all_o mirth_n and_o good_a humour_n but_o there_o be_v another_o account_n to_o be_v take_v of_o these_o thing_n if_o man_n can_v look_v within_o and_o see_v all_o the_o secret_a misgiving_n the_o inward_a horror_n of_o conscience_n the_o impatience_n and_o dissatisfaction_n they_o have_v when_o they_o serious_o reflect_v on_o their_o evil_a course_n it_o will_v quite_o alter_v their_o apprehension_n of_o these_o thing_n and_o make_v they_o conclude_v with_o the_o roman_a orator_n 2._o that_o one_o day_n spend_v according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o virtue_n be_v to_o be_v prefer_v before_o everlasting_a debauchery_n and_o he_o be_v no_o fool_n no_o pedant_n no_o mean_a and_o contemptible_a person_n who_o say_v this_o but_o a_o man_n of_o wit_n and_o sense_n of_o quality_n and_o experience_n who_o have_v opportunity_n and_o mean_n enough_o to_o have_v pursue_v the_o most_o sensual_a and_o voluptuous_a course_n of_o life_n which_o yet_o we_o see_v out_o of_o judgement_n and_o choice_n he_o despise_v and_o prefer_v a_o far_o short_a life_n according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o virtue_n before_o a_o vicious_a immortality_n and_o yet_o how_o short_a be_v the_o encouragement_n to_o a_o good_a life_n and_o the_o dissuasives_n from_o sin_n among_o the_o best_a of_o they_o in_o comparison_n of_o what_o we_o all_o know_v now_o by_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n they_o go_v no_o far_a than_o mere_a natural_a reason_n and_o the_o common_a sense_n of_o mankind_n carry_v they_o but_o we_o profess_v to_o believe_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n reveal_v from_o heaven_n against_o all_o unrighteousness_n and_o ungodliness_n of_o man_n 1.18_o 6._o 16._o and_o that_o there_o will_v be_v a_o great_a and_o terrible_a day_n 14.10_o wherein_o man_n must_v receive_v according_a to_o their_o work_n 15._o whether_o they_o be_v good_a or_o evil._n 11._o and_o will_v not_o this_o dreadful_a consideration_n awaken_v the_o drowsy_a and_o secure_a sinner_n and_o make_v he_o look_v about_o he_o betimes_o while_o there_o be_v yet_o any_o hope_n of_o mercy_n will_v he_o not_o become_v so_o wise_a at_o least_o as_o to_o enter_v into_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o way_n and_o to_o look_v back_o on_o the_o former_a course_n of_o his_o life_n to_o examine_v and_o compare_v that_o with_o the_o law_n of_o god_n by_o which_o he_o must_v be_v judge_v and_o if_o we_o have_v but_o patience_n to_o do_v this_o he_o will_v have_v no_o far_o patience_n with_o himself_o for_o be_v guilty_a of_o such_o unspeakable_a folly_n he_o will_v abhor_v himself_o for_o all_o his_o sensual_a and_o sinful_a delight_n which_o will_v turn_v into_o the_o great_a bitterness_n and_o anguish_n to_o his_o soul_n he_o will_v lament_v his_o folly_n and_o wickedness_n with_o the_o deep_a sorrow_n and_o take_v up_o sincere_a and_o firm_a resolution_n to_o return_v no_o more_o to_o the_o practice_n of_o they_o and_o if_o this_o be_v the_o result_n as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v of_o all_o the_o distinguish_a sinful_a pleasure_n of_o a_o carnal_a mind_n i_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o most_o impartial_a mind_n to_o resolve_v whether_o there_o will_v be_v the_o least_o advantage_n by_o pursue_v they_o 2._o but_o we_o have_v too_o great_a reason_n to_o suppose_v that_o man_n may_v harden_v themselves_o to_o such_o a_o degree_n of_o wickedness_n as_o to_o be_v insensible_a of_o the_o folly_n of_o it_o and_o to_o mock_v at_o those_o who_o go_v about_o to_o reprove_v they_o for_o it_o such_o as_o these_o be_v at_o ease_n because_o they_o have_v no_o sense_n of_o their_o condition_n but_o so_o be_v those_o in_o a_o lethargy_n be_v their_o case_n therefore_o to_o be_v envy_v or_o compare_v with_o those_o in_o health_n although_o more_o sensible_a of_o pain_n and_o danger_n who_o seem_v to_o be_v better_o please_v at_o sometime_o and_o transport_v with_o their_o own_o imagination_n than_o man_n in_o a_o frenzy_n and_o yet_o no_o man_n think_v their_o condition_n happy_a for_o it_o there_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o moral_a frenzy_n which_o possess_v some_o part_n of_o mankind_n who_o be_v not_o only_o extravagant_a in_o their_o action_n but_o assume_v such_o a_o degree_n of_o confidence_n in_o commit_v they_o as_o though_o the_o wise_a man_n of_o all_o age_n have_v be_v the_o only_a remarkable_a fool_n in_o it_o but_o it_o be_v no_o such_o easy_a matter_n to_o run_v down_o the_o principle_n of_o virtue_n and_o religion_n they_o have_v stand_v the_o shock_n of_o all_o the_o sarcasm_n and_o reproach_n of_o former_a time_n and_o there_o be_v still_o nothing_o at_o the_o bottom_n of_o all_o the_o scorn_n and_o contempt_n that_o be_v cast_v upon_o they_o but_o a_o carnal_a and_o profane_a temper_n of_o mind_n which_o may_v bear_v they_o up_o for_o a_o while_n but_o it_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o end_n in_o everlasting_a confusion_n and_o then_o they_o will_v find_v what_o they_o be_v so_o unwilling_a to_o believe_v that_o to_o be_v carnal_o mind_v be_v death_n not_o a_o mere_a state_n of_o insensibility_n but_o the_o worst_a kind_n of_o death_n a_o death_n of_o perpetual_a horror_n and_o torment_n a_o death_n without_o the_o power_n of_o die_v and_o yet_o with_o a_o perpetual_a desire_n of_o it_o a_o death_n who_o sting_n can_v never_o be_v take_v out_o and_o who_o terror_n be_v say_v to_o be_v as_o
