counsel_n that_o god_n do_v give_v to_o jerusalem_n by_o jeremiah_n be_v careful_a to_o wash_v his_o heart_n 4.14_o jerem._n 4.14_o and_o to_o make_v his_o inside_n clean_o and_o not_o his_o outside_n only_o he_o labour_v to_o keep_v his_o hand_n and_o tongue_n unspotted_a of_o the_o world_n and_o if_o any_o blot_n cleave_v to_o he_o he_o be_v diligent_a to_o wash_v it_o off_o by_o humiliation_n but_o he_o be_v also_o careful_a to_o keep_v his_o soul_n pure_a from_o the_o hide_a cogitation_n and_o inclination_n after_o evil_a and_o if_o here_o it_o fall_v out_o that_o he_o gather_v any_o filth_n he_o scour_v the_o inside_n with_o as_o much_o diligence_n as_o the_o pharisee_n use_v to_o do_v his_o hand_n so_o then_o the_o hypocrite_n have_v little_a to_o do_v with_o his_o heart_n the_o evil_n thereof_o do_v not_o much_o disquiet_v he_o he_o take_v small_a pain_n to_o resist_v and_o oppose_v the_o secret_a and_o dark_a disorder_n of_o his_o soul_n but_o the_o true_a christian_a find_v himself_o to_o have_v a_o world_n of_o labour_n within_o he_o be_v much_o vex_v with_o these_o heart-evils_a and_o have_v far_o more_o to_o do_v in_o the_o inward_a room_n of_o his_o soul_n than_o in_o the_o outer_a court_n of_o his_o conversation_n a_o hypocrite_n like_o a_o slothful_a or_o sluttish_a servant_n leave_v the_o nook_n and_o corner_n unswept_a and_o uncleanse_v the_o true_a christian_a as_o a_o true_a lover_n of_o cleanness_n be_v careful_a to_o ransack_v and_o purge_v every_o corner_n of_o his_o soul_n so_o you_o have_v the_o general_a difference_n betwixt_o the_o fruitful_a and_o the_o dry_a branch_n but_o the_o heart_n will_v easy_o put_v off_o these_o generality_n and_o therefore_o most_o hypocrite_n will_v not_o find_v themselves_o by_o these_o note_n for_o

these_o the_o hypocrite_n do_v somewhat_o resemble_v the_o true_a christian_a and_o yet_o in_o each_o the_o dissimilitude_n be_v as_o true_a &_o evident_a as_o be_v betwixt_o gild_a copper_n and_o pure_a gold_n christian_a a_o hypocrite_n may_v be_v as_o abundant_a in_o knowledge_n as_o a_o true_a christian_a and_o more_o than_o many_o a_o true_a christian_a let_v we_o see_v the_o similitude_n and_o dissimilitude_n in_o knowledge_n now_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o the_o false-hearted_a man_n may_v conceive_v as_o many_o divine_a truth_n in_o his_o mind_n as_o the_o true_a

that_o of_o hypocrite_n puff_v up_o and_o again_o 7.49_o john_n 7.49_o if_o any_o man_n think_v that_o he_o know_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v be_v conceit_v of_o his_o knowledge_n he_o know_v nothing_o as_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v you_o may_v see_v this_o point_n apparent_o in_o the_o pharisy_n this_o ignorant_a people_n that_o know_v not_o the_o law_n be_v curse_v and_o again_o thou_o be_v altogether_o bear_v in_o sin_n and_o do_v thou_o teach_v we_o loe_o how_o the_o understanding_n of_o hypocrite_n do_v make_v they_o insult_v over_o other_o who_o they_o think_v to_o understand_v less_o than_o themselves_o how_o it_o fill_v they_o as_o with_o conceit_n of_o themselves_o so_o with_o contempt_n of_o other_o as_o it_o be_v simple_a fellow_n and_o very_a puny_n in_o comparison_n of_o they_o for_o why_o the_o hypocrite_n know_v only_o to_o talk_v not_o to_o practice_v he_o make_v his_o knowledge_n a_o rule_n for_o his_o tongue_n and_o lip_n in_o discourse_n not_o for_o his_o life_n and_o deed_n in_o conversation_n he_o never_o use_v his_o insight_n into_o the_o law_n to_o examine_v himself_o thereby_o and_o to_o mark_v how_o far_o short_a his_o practice_n come_v of_o his_o knowledge_n but_o alone_o employ_v it_o if_o need_v be_v to_o discourse_v to_o teach_v other_o and_o reproove_v other_o hence_o it_o come_v that_o his_o knowledge_n do_v heave_v he_o up_o and_o like_o meat_n ill-digested_a beget_v the_o wind_n of_o selfe-conceitednesse_a because_o he_o will_v needs_o imagine_v himself_o so_o much_o the_o better_a by_o how_o much_o he_o conceive_v more_o

he_o be_v a_o great_a exactor_n of_o duty_n from_o other_o and_o here_o he_o strain_v himself_o to_o the_o utmost_a but_o he_o take_v leave_v to_o himself_o to_o be_v careless_a enough_o of_o do_v after_o his_o knowledge_n as_o a_o man_n that_o hold_v a_o lantern_n in_o his_o hand_n before_o other_o to_o guide_v
reformation_n as_o we_o see_v in_o simon_n in_o pharaoh_n in_o saul_n and_o in_o other_o but_o the_o true_a heart_a have_v once_o set_v in_o to_o cast_v off_o his_o belove_a sin_n do_v never_o again_o return_v to_o allow_v it_o and_o to_o wallow_v in_o it_o he_o may_v fall_v again_o perhaps_o more_o than_o once_o or_o twice_o and_o these_o relapse_n be_v very_o dangerous_a and_o very_o troublesome_a but_o he_o will_v never_o step_v back_o to_o a_o resolution_n of_o continue_v so_o to_o sin_n and_o of_o think_v that_o he_o can_v choose_v and_o there_o be_v no_o remedy_n but_o still_o he_o arise_v out_o of_o the_o mire_n renew_v his_o confession_n renew_v his_o purpose_n of_o amendment_n set_v in_o afresh_o to_o bewail_v his_o fault_n and_o bring_v himself_o again_o to_o a_o firm_a purpose_n of_o sin_v no_o more_o and_o in_o that_o purpose_n hold_v himself_o so_o long_o till_o at_o length_n it_o may_v be_v after_o many_o foil_n he_o attain_v strength_n to_o offend_v no_o more_o gross_o in_o that_o matter_n whatsoever_o it_o may_v be_v thus_o his_o faith_n become_v his_o victory_n and_o so_o he_o prevail_v against_o sin_n and_o keep_v himself_o that_o the_o wicked_a one_o do_v not_o touch_v he_o and_o that_o he_o commit_v none_o iniquity_n and_o so_o much_o of_o this_o three_o point_n concern_v the_o agreement_n of_o the_o repentance_n of_o the_o hypocrite_n and_o the_o true_a heart_a as_o also_o their_o difference_n it_o remain_v to_o speak_v in_o the_o like_a manner_n of_o their_o likeness_n and_o unlikeness_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o good_a life_n i_o know_v that_o the_o lead_n of_o a_o good_a life_n may_v well_o be_v refer_v to_o a_o branch_n of_o the_o second_o part_n of_o repentance_n viz._n reformation_n but_o i_o desire_v to_o make_v it_o a_o distinct_a head_n of_o duty_n for_o the_o more_o full_a and_o distinct_a handle_n of_o it_o in_o this_o respect_n for_o which_o i_o have_v now_o undertake_v to_o speak_v of_o it_o chap._n ix_o show_v how_o the_o good_a conversation_n of_o the_o hypocrite_n differ_v from_o the_o good_a conversation_n of_o the_o upright_o a_o good_a conversation_n consist_v in_o freedom_n from_o sinful_a practice_n crime_n a_o hypocrite_n may_v be_v very_o free_a from_o reproachful_a crime_n &_o care_n of_o do_v the_o thing_n command_v by_o god_n the_o hypocrite_n in_o both_o these_o may_v have_v attain_v a_o large_a commendation_n before_o man_n it_o may_v fall_v out_o that_o he_o shall_v live_v all_o his_o whole_a life_n long_o without_o the_o commit_n of_o any_o such_o sin_n as_o shall_v cause_v he_o to_o inherit_v reproach_n in_o the_o world_n what_o action_n be_v gross_o wicked_a and_o palpable_o shameful_a before_o man_n of_o those_o the_o false_a heart_a may_v perhaps_o be_v much_o more_o free_a than_o the_o sincere_a christian_a so_o the_o pharisee_n which_o yet_o be_v not_o justify_v before_o god_n and_o therefore_o be_v void_a of_o uprightnes_n can_v make_v his_o boast_n before_o god_n that_o he_o be_v neither_o whoremonger_n nor_o extortioner_n nor_o drunkard_n &_o doubtless_o he_o may_v have_v say_v nor_o curser_n nor_o swearer_n nor_o murderer_n this_o brag_n may_v seem_v to_o prefer_v he_o before_o david_n &_o before_o lot_n and_o before_o noah_n for_o never_o a_o one_o of_o they_o at_o his_o last_o end_n be_v able_a to_o affirm_v so_o much_o of_o himself_o paul_n also_o when_o he_o be_v a_o pharisee_n &_o a_o notable_a hypocrite_n yet_o as_o concern_v the_o law_n do_v live_v without_o rebuke_n as_o himself_o afterward_o when_o he_o have_v no_o lust_n to_o tell_v untruth_n in_o his_o own_o behalf_n affirm_v of_o himself_o 18.11_o a_o hypocrite_n in_o his_o freedom_n from_o gross_a sin_n boast_v himself_o and_o disdain_v other_o the_o true_a heart_a humble_v himself_o and_o pity_n other_o luke_n 18.11_o but_o the_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o true_a and_o false_a in_o this_o point_n stand_v in_o two_o thing_n first_o the_o hypocrite_n in_o this_o innocency_n of_o he_o be_v proud_a of_o himself_o exalt_v himself_o with_o crack_n &_o vaunt_v upon_o every_o little_a occasion_n and_o insult_v over_o other_o that_o be_v not_o alike_o innocent_a with_o a_o plain_a contempt_n and_o disdain_n of_o they_o yea_o when_o he_o compare_v the_o grosser_n sinner_n with_o himself_o he_o do_v it_o not_o alone_o with_o scorn_n of_o they_o but_o sometime_o also_o with_o a_o kind_n of_o bitterness_n thus_o our_o saviour_n bring_v in_o the_o pharisee_n crow_v over_o the_o poor_a publican_n because_o himself_o be_v not_o like_o he_o and_o thank_v god_n that_o be_v put_v in_o for_o form_n sake_n that_o he_o be_v no_o such_o manner_n of_o man_n as_o this_o publican_n and_o you_o know_v how_o bitter_a the_o pharisy_n be_v against_o the_o

more_o wicked_a than_o himself_o shall_v be_v if_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o preserve_v he_o but_o if_o the_o true_a christian_a have_v either_o before_o his_o call_n live_v in_o or_o after_o his_o
