against_o his_o own_o dear_a child_n when_o they_o walk_v not_o faithful_o in_o his_o covenant_n when_o they_o lie_v aside_o their_o filial_a obedience_n when_o they_o give_v occasion_n to_o his_o

even_o this_o fatherly_a wrath_n this_o gentle_a wrath_n if_o it_o be_v not_o a_o contradiction_n to_o call_v it_o so_o these_o small_a drop_n of_o his_o displeasure_n be_v more_o unsupportable_a to_o they_o than_o all_o the_o misery_n of_o the_o world_n yea_o they_o can_v more_o willing_o submit_v to_o the_o torment_n in_o hell_n provide_v that_o god_n countenance_n do_v but_o shine_v upon_o they_o than_o to_o undergo_v that_o which_o this_o wrath_n of_o god_n sometime_o distil_v upon_o they_o and_o yet_o all_o this_o while_n we_o may_v true_o say_v of_o they_o they_o be_v child_n under_o wrath_n but_o not_o the_o child_n of_o wrath_n not_o the_o people_n of_o his_o wrath_n not_o the_o vessel_n of_o his_o wrath_n but_o if_o you_o will_v know_v second_o what_o be_v the_o people_n against_o who_o god_n have_v indignation_n for_o ever_o the_o scripture_n tell_v it_o you_o in_o this_o expression_n ordinary_o they_o be_v the_o child_n of_o belial_n so_o they_o be_v usual_o call_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n that_o be_v such_o as_o will_v not_o bear_v god_n yoke_n masterless_a child_n yoke-less_a child_n and_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n they_o be_v call_v child_n of_o 6._o

disobedience_n be_v i_o must_v a_o little_a explain_v to_o you_o and_o then_o the_o application_n will_v be_v easy_a i_o say_v therefore_o that_o these_o child_n that_o will_v not_o carry_v the_o yoke_n be_v first_o all_o unbeliever_n i_o do_v not_o mean_v negative_a unbeliever_n that_o be_v those_o that_o do_v not_o believe_v in_o christ_n because_o they_o never_o hear_v of_o he_o but_o positive_a unbeliever_n who_o have_v have_v the_o glorious_a light_n of_o the_o gospel_n shine_v to_o they_o to_o who_o the_o lord_n jesus_n have_v be_v free_o offer_v as_o a_o saviour_n to_o

like_o to_o take_v he_o upon_o such_o hard_a term_n you_o may_v be_v sure_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n rest_v upon_o these_o man_n turn_v but_o to_o john_n 3._o ult._n he_o that_o believe_v in_o christ_n shall_v be_v save_v he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v a_o damn_a man_n and_o how_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n abide_v on_o he_o mark_v that_o expression_n abide_v on_o he_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n take_v up_o as_o it_o be_v his_o habitation_n in_o a_o unbeliever_n so_o that_o what_o god_n grace_v sometime_o say_v of_o solomon_n temple_n here_o will_v i_o dwell_v for_o i_o have_v a_o delight_n in_o it_o so_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n seem_v to_o say_v of_o a_o unbeliever_n here_o i_o will_v dwell_v here_o i_o will_v abide_v for_o ever_o second_o the_o child_n of_o disobedience_n and_o son_n of_o belial_n be_v such_o who_o life_n and_o conversation_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o gospel_n who_o as_o they_o will_v not_o take_v christ_n to_o be_v their_o portion_n

you_o with_o due_a care_n apply_v these_o thing_n to_o your_o own_o heart_n and_o present_v they_o to_o your_o soul_n as_o thing_n present_a how_o will_v they_o bring_v down_o the_o most_o stubborn_a

they_o the_o first_o be_v these_o thing_n be_v look_v upon_o as_o thing_n a_o far_o off_o now_o it_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o optic_n that_o thing_n far_o off_o though_o they_o be_v marvellous_a great_a yet_o seem_v very_o little_a a_o star_n that_o be_v big_a than_o all_o the_o earth_n seem_v no_o big_a than_o a_o candle_n be_v many_o mile_n distant_a from_o we_o so_o while_o man_n look_v at_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n as_o they_o do_v at_o the_o prophet_n vision_n the_o vision_n that_o he_o see_v be_v for_o many_o day_n to_o come_v and_o he_o prophecy_v of_o 27._o the_o time_n that_o be_v far_o off_o and_o put_v the_o evil_a day_n from_o they_o all_o these_o threaten_n be_v but_o light_a matter_n second_o it_o fare_v with_o most_o man_n in_o this_o point_n as_o with_o some_o man_n that_o have_v shrewish_a wife_n though_o their_o business_n lie_v within_o door_n yet_o they_o have_v no_o heart_n to_o be_v there_o for_o fear_n of_o chide_v so_o though_o it_o be_v the_o most_o necessary_a work_n to_o think_v of_o these_o thing_n yet_o because_o their_o unquiet_a conscience_n upon_o the_o least_o serious_a meditation_n be_v ready_a to_o gnaw_v and_o tear_v they_o and_o make_v they_o sleep_v uncomfortable_o they_o labour_v to_o drive_v off_o the_o thought_n of_o this_o thing_n as_o far_o as_o they_o can_v and_o will_v not_o think_v of_o god_n wrath_n due_a to_o sin_n from_o year_n end_n to_o year_n end_n whereas_o if_o man_n will_v bring_v it_o in_o rempraesentem_fw-la and_o keep_v their_o eye_n open_a to_o behold_v it_o as_o a_o thing_n which_o unavoidable_o will_v come_v upon_o they_o how_o admirable_o will_v it_o work_v upon_o man_n heart_n to_o this_o end_n let_v i_o tell_v you_o a_o story_n which_o i_o have_v often_o read_v to_o this_o purpose_n it_o be_v report_v of_o a_o certain_a christian_a king_n of_o hungary_n who_o be_v on_o a_o time_n marvellous_a sad_a and_o heavy_a his_o brother_n that_o be_v a_o resolute_a courtier_n will_v needs_o know_v what_o he_o

in_o the_o dead_a time_n of_o the_o night_n send_v his_o deathsman_n and_o cause_v he_o to_o sound_v his_o trumpet_n before_o his_o brother_n door_n who_o hear_v and_o see_v the_o messenger_n of_o

thou_o have_v love_v i_o and_o never_o offend_v i_o and_o be_v the_o sight_n of_o my_o executioner_n so_o dreadful_a to_o thou_o and_o shall_v not_o i_o so_o great_a a_o sinner_n fear_v to_o be_v
