sin_n as_o david_n in_o the_o one_o and_o fifty_o psalm_n say_v against_o thou_o against_o thou_o only_o have_v i_o sin_v repeat_v it_o twice_o in_o that_o place_n he_o compose_v that_o psalm_n to_o

prodigal_a son_n this_o be_v the_o circumstance_n by_o which_o he_o aggravate_v his_o sin_n against_o heaven_n and_o against_o thou_o i_o have_v offend_v so_o learn_v to_o know_v that_o your_o sin_n be_v against_o god_n and_o therefore_o to_o press_v this_o truth_n a_o little_a more_o consider_v well_o with_o yourselves_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o god_n have_v require_v such_o a_o vast_a

depth_n and_o breadth_n whereof_o you_o cannto_o comprehend_v think_v why_o god_n have_v appoint_v such_o a_o vast_a punishment_n and_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o be_v because_o you_o sin_n against_o a_o immense_a a_o great_a and_o almighty_a god_n the_o length_n and_o breadth_n and_o depth_n of_o who_o greatness_n you_o can_v comprehend_v again_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n god_n shall_v appoint_v such_o a_o mediator_n to_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n must_v needs_o take_v flesh_n which_o the_o angel_n themselves_o wonder_v at_o it_o be_v such_o a_o wonderful_a action_n that_o they_o can_v but_o admire_v and_o in_o heaven_n we_o shall_v stand_v amaze_v at_o it_o which_o evidence_n the_o greatness_n of_o sin_n learn_v to_o know_v this_o put_v all_o these_o four_o together_o and_o see_v how_o these_o do_v hold_v correspondency_n one_o with_o another_o and_o you_o shall_v find_v out_o the_o nature_n of_o your_o sin_n first_o consider_v the_o greatness_n of_o god_n his_o infiniteness_n the_o greatness_n of_o his_o authority_n the_o wonderful_a vast_a sovereignty_n he_o have_v over_o all_o creature_n from_o this_o greatness_n of_o god_n come_v the_o second_o the_o greatness_n of_o sin_n i_o have_v make_v know_v this_o truth_n but_o thou_o have_v withheld_a it_o thence_o it_o come_v that_o sin_n be_v so_o great_a that_o the_o least_o sin_n which_o thou_o make_v nothing_o of_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o so_o great_a moment_n that_o be_v the_o second_o which_o follow_v on_o the_o greatness_n of_o god_n three_o upon_o the_o greatness_n of_o sin_n you_o see_v the_o greatness_n of_o the_o punishment_n if_o such_o a_o one_o as_o aristotle_n or_o a_o stranger_n from_o the_o truth_n shall_v hear_v of_o this_o punishment_n the_o

a_o correspondency_n in_o they_o come_v from_o god_n to_o sin_n from_o sin_n to_o the_o punishment_n from_o punishment_n to_o the_o mediation_n or_o redemption_n by_o which_o this_o sin_n be_v take_v away_o learn_v therefore_o to_o know_v what_o sin_n be_v i_o know_v not_o a_o truth_n of_o great_a moment_n and_o to_o all_o add_v that_o 1_o cor._n 15.56_o the_o sting_n of_o death_n be_v sin_n if_o you_o look_v on_o death_n it_o be_v the_o most_o terrible_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n you_o know_v what_o the_o philosopher_n say_v of_o it_o of_o all_o terrible_a thing_n it_o be_v the_o most_o terrible_a the_o most_o fearful_a but_o sin_n be_v the_o sting_n of_o death_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v death_n be_v a_o small_a thing_n in_o comparison_n of_o sin_n let_v a_o man_n want_v sin_n and_o death_n be_v nothing_o it_o be_v but_o sleep_n it_o be_v nothing_o to_o have_v the_o body_n and_o soul_n separate_v again_o suppose_v there_o be_v no_o death_n but_o let_v body_n and_o soul_n remain_v together_o yet_o sin_n be_v a_o terrible_a thing_n it_o be_v above_o all_o the_o terror_n in_o the_o world_n as_o in_o judas_n see_v his_o terror_n though_o there_o be_v no_o death_n on_o he_o see_v adam_n when_o he_o be_v not_o in_o hell_n but_o in_o paradise_n yet_o how_o be_v he_o torment_v with_o his_o sin_n therefore_o weigh_v not_o sin_n in_o a_o wrong_a balance_n look_v not_o on_o it_o with_o a_o wrong_a light_n take_v heed_n of_o be_v deceive_v for_o in_o this_o of_o all_o other_o thing_n man_n be_v most_o apt_a to_o be_v deceive_v that_o be_v the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n that_o strange_a darkness_n be_v bring_v on_o man_n by_o adam_n that_o in_o the_o thing_n that_o most_o concern_v he_o which_o be_v sin_n in_o that_o he_o be_v most_o ignorant_a most_o apt_a to_o be_v deceive_v therefore_o when_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o sin_n he_o come_v in_o still_o with_o this_o caution_n be_v not_o deceive_v 1_o cor._n 6.9_o be_v not_o deceive_v neither_o fornicatour_n nor_o idolater_n nor_o adulterer_n etc._n etc._n shall_v inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n as_o if_o man_n in_o that_o be_v most_o apt_a to_o be_v deceive_v so_o ephes._n 5.6_o be_v not_o deceive_v for_o for_o such_o thing_n the_o wrath_n of_o god_n come_v on_o the_o child_n of_o disobedience_n and_o observe_v when_o christ_n go_v about_o to_o show_v to_o any_o man_n or_o to_o any_o church_n what_o their_o sin_n be_v or_o what_o their_o danger_n be_v he_o add_v this_o let_v he_o that_o have_v a_o ear_n hear_v what_o the_o spirit_n say_v to_o the_o church_n his_o end_n be_v to_o tell_v they_o of_o their_o sin_n still_o that_o come_v in_o he_o that_o have_v a_o ear_n to_o hear_v let_v he_o hear_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v when_o i_o come_v to_o speak_v of_o matter_n of_o sin_n there_o be_v many_o here_o that_o can_v tell_v what_o i_o say_v that_o can_v understand_v i_o well_o but_o few_o have_v ear_n to_o understand_v indeed_o as_o when_o the_o prophet_n come_v to_o jeroboam_fw-la he_o hear_v the_o prophet_n so_o as_o it_o anger_v he_o he_o know_v what_o his_o sin_n be_v but_o he_o hear_v it_o not_o to_o purpose_v so_o when_o christ_n pronounce_v a_o woe_n to_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n they_o hear_v it_o well_o enough_o but_o they_o have_v not_o a_o ear_n to_o hear_v it_o to_o purpose_n man_n may_v hear_v what_o flesh_n and_o common_a reason_n and_o common_a man_n say_v of_o sin_n but_o not_o what_o the_o spirit_n say_v of_o it_o there_o be_v another_o kind_n of_o sinfulness_n in_o sin_n which_o be_v the_o spiritual_a evil_n of_o sin_n and_o what_o the_o spirit_n say_v of_o this_o they_o do_v not_o hear_v therefore_o you_o must_v even_o be_v bring_v to_o christ_n as_o the_o deaf_a man_n be_v who_o be_v both_o deaf_a and_o dumb_a be_v bring_v to_o christ_n that_o he_o may_v lay_v his_o hand_n on_o he_o now_o christ_n put_v his_o finger_n into_o his_o ear_n and_o say_v ephata_n be_v thou_o open_v and_o then_o the_o man_n hear_v and_o speak_v so_o of_o all_o man_n that_o hear_v this_o word_n there_o be_v not_o a_o man_n but_o he_o be_v deaf_a according_a to_o this_o inward_a kind_n of_o hear_v therefore_o you_o must_v be_v bring_v to_o christ_n and_o beseech_v he_o to_o give_v you_o ear_n to_o hear_v for_o few_o have_v ear_n to_o hear_v what_o the_o spirit_n say_v unto_o the_o church_n when_o it_o discover_v their_o sin_n and_o misery_n therefore_o let_v not_o this_o doctrine_n be_v in_o vain_a to_o you_o but_o learn_v from_o hence_o to_o humble_v yourselves_o to_o come_v to_o god_n and_o say_v to_o he_o lord_n i_o be_o now_o amaze_v and_o confound_v i_o think_v before_o loss_n and_o cross_n be_v great_a matter_n but_o now_o i_o see_v they_o be_v but_o flea-bite_n to_o sin_n i_o be_v heretofore_o trouble_v at_o a_o small_a cross_n but_o little_a or_o nothing_o at_o sin_n lord_n i_o confess_v this_o be_v my_o case_n but_o i_o see_v now_o sin_n be_v another_o thing_n thus_o we_o shall_v learn_v to_o humble_v ourselves_o fore_o god_n but_o if_o any_o object_n object_n this_o be_v the_o way_n to_o discourage_v man_n to_o make_v they_o desperate_a to_o make_v they_o fly_v from_o religion_n by_o tell_v they_o sin_n be_v so_o terrible_a i_o answer_v answ._n it_o be_v not_o the_o way_n to_o discourage_v man_n from_o come_v to_o christ_n but_o to_o encourage_v they_o and_o drive_v they_o to_o he_o this_o be_v the_o way_n to_o salvation_n indeed_o if_o there_o be_v no_o remedy_n for_o sin_n it_o be_v a_o desperate_a case_n but_o
be_v none_o shine_v into_o the_o house_n so_o when_o man_n think_v they_o understand_v most_o yet_o they_o want_v this_o light_n to_o shine_v into_o the_o house_n luke_n 24.45_o then_o open_v he_o their_o understanding_n that_o they_o may_v understand_v the_o scripture_n they_o have_v hear_v christ_n before_o but_o they_o understand_v not_o his_o word_n like_o those_o which_o sow_v seed_n on_o ill_a ground_n and_o therefore_o receive_v not_o the_o fruit_n of_o it_o but_o when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n come_v into_o thy_o heart_n that_o will_v convince_v thou_o of_o evil_a it_o will_v expel_v darkness_n and_o set_v right_a thy_o judgement_n otherwise_o though_o you_o hear_v paul_n preach_v yea_o christ_n himself_o be_v your_o judgement_n never_o so_o good_a yet_o it_o will_v not_o be_v do_v till_o the_o holy_a ghost_n teach_v you_o you_o will_v never_o know_v he_o never_o see_v he_o aright_o in_o his_o glory_n never_o see_v he_o so_o as_o to_o delight_v and_o long_o after_o he_o so_o as_o to_o desire_v nothing_o in_o the_o world_n so_o much_o as_o communion_n with_o he_o thus_o it_o be_v when_o his_o image_n be_v renew_v in_o knowledge_n and_o truth_n and_o where_o this_o knowledge_n and_o truth_n be_v holiness_n instant_o follow_v there_o be_v many_o that_o know_v and_o practice_n not_o and_o there_o be_v many_o which_o neither_o know_v nor_o practice_n but_o where_o this_o image_n be_v what_o ever_o they_o know_v they_o practice_n well_o let_v we_o apply_v this_o unto_o ourselves_o brief_o if_o to_o be_v a_o new_a creature_n use_v there_o be_v require_v of_o we_o this_o faith_n and_o love_n truth_n and_o holiness_n knowledge_n and_o righteousness_n then_o let_v we_o learn_v not_o to_o be_v deceive_v to_o regard_v nothing_o else_o in_o comparison_n of_o this_o do_v as_o the_o apostle_n gal._n 6.15_o for_o in_o christ_n jesus_n neither_o circumcision_n avail_v any_o thing_n nor_o uncircumcision_n but_o a_o new_a creature_n that_o be_v it_o be_v no_o matter_n for_o any_o thing_n in_o a_o man_n circumcision_n be_v no_o better_a than_o uncircumcision_n go_v through_o all_o the_o duty_n of_o religion_n you_o shall_v find_v they_o nothing_o till_o you_o be_v make_v a_o new_a creature_n i_o know_v many_o do_v many_o thing_n they_o come_v to_o church_n and_o give_v alm_n well_o say_v the_o apostle_n circumcision_n and_o uncircumcision_n be_v all_o one_o so_o say_v i_o prayer_n and_o no_o prayer_n be_v all_o one_o do_v just_o and_o unjust_o it_o be_v all_o one_o until_o a_o man_n be_v a_o new_a creature_n therefore_o say_v paul_n 1_o cor._n 13.3_o though_o i_o give_v all_o my_o good_n to_o the_o poor_a which_o be_v a_o glorious_a action_n nay_o though_o i_o can_v be_v content_a to_o be_v a_o martyr_n though_o i_o give_v my_o body_n to_o be_v

gospel_n as_o the_o earth_n bring_v forth_o grass_n of_o itself_o and_o some_o flower_n of_o the_o low_a sort_n but_o to_o bring_v forth_o a_o crop_n and_o flower_n of_o the_o fine_a sort_n it_o must_v be_v till_v and_o there_o must_v be_v seed_n put_v in_o nature_n i_o say_v may_v do_v much_o but_o this_o new_a creature_n must_v come_v from_o a_o immortal_a seed_n sow_v in_o the_o heart_n by_o god_n himself_o therefore_o look_v whether_o thou_o have_v that_o wrought_v in_o thou_o or_o no._n for_o this_o be_v all_o the_o comfort_n we_o have_v when_o the_o body_n be_v decay_v and_o

that_o when_o the_o old_a house_n be_v go_v down_o we_o have_v a_o new_a house_n set_v up_o in_o stead_n of_o it_o every_o man_n be_v glad_a to_o see_v a_o old_a house_n pull_v down_o and_o a_o new_a

into_o the_o description_n a_o man_n be_v a_o new_a creature_n when_o his_o heart_n be_v cast_v into_o another_o mould_n by_o the_o infusion_n of_o a_o new_a quality_n of_o grace_n and_o by_o a_o

from_o a_o effect_n of_o that_o wrath_n the_o plague_n god_n strike_v they_o with_o pestilence_n that_o be_v the_o punishment_n wrath_n in_o this_o verse_n be_v set_v down_o the_o remedy_n and_o

be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o plague_n so_o the_o turn_v away_o thereof_o be_v the_o remedy_n this_o turn_v away_o of_o his_o wrath_n be_v set_v forth_o by_o the_o cause_n of_o its_o turn_n away_o

that_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a for_o you_o see_v his_o anger_n bring_v the_o plague_n on_o they_o and_o the_o turn_n away_o of_o his_o anger_n heal_v they_o again_o second_o it_o be_v sin_n that_o

last_o the_o issue_n of_o this_o jealousy_n of_o he_o will_v be_v utter_a destruction_n we_o will_v begin_v with_o the_o first_o point_n which_o be_v that_o it_o be_v god_n only_o evil_a that_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a to_o every_o nation_n to_o every_o church_n and_o kingdom_n yea_o to_o every_o particular_a person_n as_o you_o see_v here_o it_o be_v not_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o air_n that_o bring_v the_o plague_n nor_o the_o clear_n of_o it_o with_o frost_n and_o wind_n that_o turn_v it_o away_o but_o the_o cloud_n of_o the_o lord_n wrath_n shed_v this_o storm_n on_o they_o and_o when_o he_o be_v appease_v with_o they_o there_o follow_v health_n and_o peace_n the_o lord_n wound_n and_o the_o lord_n heal_v for_o what_o be_v the_o plague_n but_o a_o sword_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o angel_n who_o draw_v it_o out_o and_o put_v it_o into_o its_o sheath_n again_o at_o his_o master_n appointment_n and_o be_v not_o there_o the_o same_o reason_n of_o all_o other_o evil_n war_n you_o know_v be_v a_o terrible_a thing_n when_o enemy_n come_v as_o bee_n on_o a_o land_n but_o do_v not_o the_o lord_n hiss_v for_o they_o and_o again_o they_o be_v drive_v away_o as_o with_o a_o

we_o be_v subject_a yet_o we_o consider_v it_o not_o though_o we_o see_v man_n fall_v from_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n every_o moment_n yet_o we_o regard_v it_o not_o this_o the_o lord_n take_v only_o to_o himself_o psal._n 68.20_o to_o the_o lord_n belong_v the_o issue_n from_o death_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o give_v to_o the_o lord_n this_o great_a prerogative_n of_o he_o that_o he_o only_o do_v good_a and_o evil_a and_o let_v no_o man_n question_v it_o you_o will_v say_v who_o do_v question_v it_o it_o be_v very_o true_a we_o do_v not_o question_v it_o in_o word_n but_o if_o we_o

though_o you_o see_v nothing_o though_o you_o taste_v nothing_o but_o bread_n i_o say_v it_o be_v much_o easy_a now_o as_o we_o say_v we_o must_v not_o blow_v a_o spark_n too_o much_o for_o put_v it_o
