in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o favour_n with_o god_n when_o you_o die_v and_o as_o ever_o you_o hope_v to_o be_v set_v at_o christ_n right_a hand_n among_o his_o sheep_n and_o to_o be_v sentence_v by_o christ_n with_o they_o to_o his_o everlasting_a kingdom_n at_o that_o great_a and_o glorious_a day_n of_o his_o appear_v that_o you_o use_v all_o possible_a care_n diligence_n and_o endeavour_n by_o the_o grace_n and_o assistance_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o god_n against_o all_o these_o forementioned_a impediment_n unto_o salvation_n and_o all_o such_o like_a that_o they_o may_v be_v remove_v out_o of_o your_o way_n to_o happiness_n and_o not_o be_v any_o hindrance_n at_o all_o to_o your_o eternal_a glory_n and_o salvation_n and_o that_o this_o may_v be_v the_o more_o effectual_o enterprise_v and_o perform_v by_o you_o let_v these_o ensue_a instruction_n sink_v deep_a into_o your_o heart_n and_o be_v most_o studious_o serious_o and_o sincere_o pursue_v and_o practise_v in_o your_o life_n viz._n 1._o be_v deep_o and_o thorough_o convince_v of_o the_o extreme_a sinfulness_n and_o wretchedness_n of_o your_o natural_a state_n and_o condition_n in_o the_o first_o adam_n 12._o how_o you_o be_v shape_v in_o iniquity_n and_o conceive_v in_o sin_n 6._o yea_o dead_a in_o sin_n and_o trespass_n and_o by_o nature_n child_n of_o wrath_n even_o as_o other_o 3._o and_o how_o from_o this_o original_a and_o universal_a corruption_n of_o your_o nature_n your_o whole_a course_n of_o life_n be_v answerable_o corrupt_v also_o every_o imagination_n of_o the_o thought_n of_o your_o heart_n and_o consequent_o every_o word_n of_o your_o mouth_n and_o every_o action_n throughout_o your_o life_n be_v evil_a only_a evil_n continual_o evil_a so_o long_o as_o you_o continue_v in_o your_o natural_a state_n and_o condition_n 5._o so_o then_o while_o you_o remain_v in_o the_o flesh_n you_o can_v please_v god_n 8._o nor_o can_v have_v anâ_n actual_a hope_n of_o salvation_n 12._o upon_o any_o solid_a ground_n 2._o hence_o you_o may_v evident_o see_v and_o must_v needs_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v so_o great_a a_o necessity_n of_o a_o supernatural_a remedy_n against_o this_o your_o natural_a state_n of_o sin_n and_o misery_n and_o against_o all_o the_o sinfulness_n of_o your_o natural_a conversation_n by_o the_o application_n of_o jesus_n christ_n unto_o your_o soul_n and_o the_o effectual_a operation_n of_o his_o spirit_n to_o that_o end_n upon_o your_o heart_n that_o without_o such_o apply_v of_o christ_n by_o faith_n unto_o you_o 16._o and_o the_o operation_n of_o his_o spirit_n in_o and_o upon_o you_o by_o effectual_a call_v conversion_n regeneration_n renovation_n and_o sanctification_n you_o can_v never_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o be_v eternal_o save_v 7._o 3._o therefore_o see_v that_o you_o come_v unto_o jesus_n christ_n by_o faith_n without_o delay_n 14._o and_o receive_v he_o as_o your_o only_a all-sufficient_a

23._o so_o jesus_n christ_n will_v be_v unto_o you_o wisdom_n to_o guide_v you_o in_o the_o way_n to_o heaven_n righteousness_n to_o wash_v away_o all_o your_o sin_n by_o his_o blood_n and_o justify_v
