A30143	Grace abounding to the chief of sinners, or, A brief and faithful relation of the exceeding mercy of God in Christ, to his poor servant John Bvnyan wherein is particularly shewed, the manner of his conversion, his fight and trouble for sin, his dreadful temptations, also how he despaired of Gods mercy, and how the Lord at length thorow [sic] Christ did deliver him from all the guilt and terrour that lay upon him : whereunto is added, a brief relation of his call to the work of the ministry, of his temptations therein, as also what he hath met with in prison : all which was written by his own hand there, and now published for the support of the the weak and tempted people of God.	Bunyan, John, 1628-1688.	1666 (1666)	Wing B5523; ESTC R3994	67,228	108

servant_n for_o i_o have_v not_o preach_v long_o before_o some_o begin_v to_o be_v touch_v by_o the_o word_n and_o to_o be_v great_o afflict_v in_o their_o mind_n at_o the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o greatness_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o of_o their_o need_n of_o jesus_n christ._n 226._o but_o i_o at_o first_o can_v not_o believe_v that_o god_n shall_v speak_v by_o i_o to_o the_o heart_n of_o any_o man_n still_o count_v myself_o unworthy_a yet_o those_o who_o thus_o be_v touch_v will_v love_v i_o and_o have_v a_o peculiar_a respect_n for_o i_o and_o though_o i_o do_v put_v it_o from_o i_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v awaken_v by_o i_o still_o they_o will_v confess_v it_o and_o affirm_v it_o before_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n they_o will_v also_o bless_v god_n for_o i_o unworthy_a wretch_n that_o i_o be_o a●d_v count_v i_o god_n instrument_n that_o show_v to_o they_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n 227._o wherefore_o see_v they_o in_o both_o their_o word_n and_o deed_n to_o be_v so_o constant_a &_o also_o in_o their_o heart_n so_o earnest_o press_v after_o the_o knowledge_n of_o jesus_n christ_n rejoice_v that_o ever_o god_n do_v send_v i_o where_o they_o be_v then_o i_o begin_v to_o conclude_v it_o may_v be_v so_o that_o god_n have_v own_v in_o his_o work_n such_o a_o foolish_a one_o as_o i_o and_o then_o come_v that_o word_n of_o god_n to_o my_o heart_n with_o much_o sweet_a refreshment_n the_o blessing_n of_o they_o that_o be_v ready_a to_o perish_v be_v come_v upon_o i_o yea_o i_o cause_v the_o widow_n heart_n to_o sing_v for_o joy_n job_n 29.13_o 228._o at_o this_o therefore_o i_o rejoice_v yea_o the_o tear_n of_o those_o who_o god_n do_v awaken_v by_o my_o preach_n will_v be_v both_o solace_n and_o encouragement_n to_o i_o for_o i_o think_v on_o those_o say_n who_o be_v he_o that_o make_v i_o glad_a but_o the_o same_o that_o be_v make_v sorry_a by_o i_o 2_o cor._n 2.2_o and_o again_o though_o i_o be_v not_o a_o apostle_n to_o other_o yet_o doubtless_o i_o be_o unto_o you_o for_o the_o seal_n of_o my_o apostleship_n be_v you_o in_o the_o lord_n 1_o cor._n 9.2_o these_o thing_n therefore_o be_v as_o another_o argument_n unto_o i_o that_o god_n have_v call_v i_o to_o and_o stand_v by_o i_o in_o this_o work_n 229._o in_o my_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n i_o take_v special_a notice_n of_o this_o one_o thing_n namely_o that_o the_o lord_n do_v lead_v i_o to_o begin_v where_o his_o word_n begin_v with_o sinner_n that_o be_v to_o condemn_v all_o flesh_n and_o to_o open_v and_o allege_v that_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n by_o the_o law_n do_v belong_v to_o and_o lay_v hold_v on_o all_o man_n as_o they_o come_v into_o the_o world_n because_o of_o sin_n now_o this_o part_n of_o my_o work_n i_o fulfil_v with_o great_a sense_n for_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o law_n and_o guilt_n for_o my_o transgression_n lay_v heavy_a on_o my_o conscience_n i_o preach_v what_o i_o feel_v what_o i_o smart_o do_v feel_v even_o that_o under_o which_o my_o poor_a soul_n do_v groan_n and_o tremble_v to_o astonishment_n 230._o indeed_o i_o have_v be_v as_o one_o send_v to_o they_o from_o the_o dead_a i_o go_v myself_o in_o chain_n to_o preach_v to_o they_o in_o chain_n and_o carry_v that_o fire_n in_o my_o own_o conscience_n that_o i_o persuade_v they_o to_o beware_v of_o i_o can_v true_o say_v and_o that_o without_o dissemble_v that_o when_o i_o have_v be_v to_o preach_v i_o have_v go_v full_a of_o guilt_n and_o terror_n even_o to_o the_o pulpit-door_n and_o there_o it_o have_v be_v take_v off_o and_o i_o have_v be_v at_o liberty_n in_o my_o mind_n until_o i_o have_v do_v my_o work_n and_o then_o immediate_o even_o before_o i_o can_v get_v down_o the_o pulpit-stair_n have_v be_v as_o bad_a as_o i_o be_v before_o yet_o god_n carry_v i_o on_o but_o sure_o with_o a_o strong_a hand_n for_o neither_o guilt_n nor_o hell_n can_v take_v i_o off_o my_o work_n 231._o thus_o i_o go_v for_o the_o space_n of_o two_o year_n cry_v out_o against_o man_n sin_n and_o their_o fearful_a state_n because_o of_o they_o after_o which_o the_o lord_n come_v in_o upon_o my_o own_o soul_n with_o some_o stay_a peace_n and_o comfort_n through_o christ_n for_o he_o do_v give_v i_o many_o sweet_a discovery_n of_o his_o bless_a grace_n through_o he_o wherefore_o now_o i_o alter_v in_o my_o preach_n for_o still_o i_o preach_v what_o i_o see_v &_o feel_v now_o therefore_o i_o do_v much_o labour_n to_o hold_v forth_o jesus_n christ_n in_o all_o his_o office_n relation_n and_o benefit_n unto_o the_o world_n and_o do_v strive_v also_o to_o discover_v to_o condemn_v and_o remove_v those_o false_a support_n and_o prop_n on_o which_o the_o world_n do_v both_o lean_a and_o by_o they_o fall_v and_o perish_v on_o these_o thing_n also_o i_o stay_v as_o long_o as_o on_o the_o other_o 232._o after_o this_o god_n lead_v i_o into_o something_o of_o the_o mystery_n of_o union_n with_o christ_n wherefore_o that_o i_o discover_v and_o show_v to_o they_o also_o and_o when_o i_o have_v travel_v through_o these_o three_o chief_a point_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n about_o the_o space_n of_o five_o year_n or_o more_o i_o be_v catch_v in_o my_o present_a practice_n and_o c●st_n into_o prison_n where_o i_o have_v lie_v as_o long_o to_o confirm_v t●e_v truth_n by_o way_n of_o suffer_v as_o i_o be_v before_o in_o testify_v of_o it_o according_a to_o the_o scripture_n in_o a_o way_n of_o preach_v 233._o when_o i_o have_v be_v in_o preach_v i_o thank_v god_n my_o heart_n have_v often_o all_o the_o time_n of_o this_o an●_n the_o other_o exercise_n with_o great_a earnestness_n cry_v to_o god_n that_o he_o will_v make_v the_o word_n effectual_a to_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o soul_n still_o be_v grieve_v lest_o the_o enemy_n will_v take_v the_o word_n away_o from_o the_o conscience_n and_o so_o it_o shall_v become_v unfruitful_a wherefore_o i_o shall_v labour_v so_o to_o speak_v the_o word_n as_o that_o thereby_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a the_o sin_n and_o per●on_n guilty_a may_v be_v particularise_v by_o it_o 234._o also_o when_o i_o have_v do_v the_o exercise_n it_o have_v go_v to_o my_o heart_n to_o think_v the_o word_n shall_v now_o fall_v as_o rain_v on_o stony_a place_n still_o wish_v from_o my_o heart_n o_o tha●_n they_o who_o have_v hear_v i_o speak_v this_o day_n do_v but_o see_v as_o i_o do_v what_o sin_n death_n hell_n and_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n be_v and_o also_o what_o the_o grace_n and_o love_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n be_v through_o christ_n to_o man_n in_o such_o a_o case_n as_o they_o be_v who_o be_v yet_o estrange_v from_o he_o and_o indeed_o i_o do_v often_o say_v in_o my_o heart_n before_o the_o lord_n that_o if_o to_o be_v hang_v up_o present_o before_o their_o eye_n will_v be_v a_o mean_n to_o awaken_v they_o and_o confirm_v they_o in_o the_o truth_n i_o glad_o shall_v be_v content_v 235._o for_o i_o have_v be_v in_o my_o preach_n especial_o when_o i_o have_v be_v engage_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o life_n by_o christ_n without_o work_n as_o if_o a_o angel_n of_o god_n have_v stand_v by_o at_o my_o back_n to_o encourage_v i_o o_o it_o have_v be_v with_o such_o powe●_n and_o heavenly_a evidence_n upon_o my_o own_o soul_n while_o i_o have_v be_v labour_v to_o unfold_v it_o to_o demonstrate_v it_o and_o to_o fasten_v it_o upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o other_o that_o i_o can_v not_o ●e_v content_v with_o say_v i_o believe_v and_o be_o sure_a methinks_v i_o be_v more_o than_o sure_a if_o it_o be_v lawful_a so_o to_o express_v myself_o that_o those_o thing_n which_o then_o i_o assert_v be_v true_a 236._o when_o i_o go_v first_o to_o preach_v the_o word_n abroad_o the_o doctor_n and_o priest_n of_o the_o country_n do_v open_a wide_a against_o i_o but_o i_o be_v persuade_v of_o this_o not_o to_o render_v rail_v for_o rail_v but_o to_o see_v how_o many_o of_o their_o carnal_a professor_n i_o can_v convince_v of_o their_o miserable_a state_n by_o the_o law_n and_o of_o the_o want_n and_o worth_a of_o christ_n for_o thought_n i_o this_o shall_v answer_v for_o i_o in_o time_n to_o come_v when_o they_o shall_v be_v for_o my_o hire_n before_o their_o face_n gen._n 30.33_o 237._o i_o never_o care_v to_o meddle_v with_o thing_n that_o be_v controvert_v and_o in_o dispute_n among_o the_o saint_n especial_o thing_n of_o the_o low_a nature_n yet_o it_o please_v i_o much_o to_o contend_v with_o great_a earnestness_n for_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n and_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n by_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o jesus_n but_o i_o say_v as_o to_o other_o thing_n
