but_o that_o we_o shall_v come_v more_o full_o to_o when_o we_o speak_v how_o our_o conversation_n shall_v be_v become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n but_o i_o speak_v this_o in_o this_o point_n as_o a_o preparation_n to_o that_o &_o especial_o to_o young_a professor_n that_o have_v be_v wrought_v upon_o by_o the_o word_n within_o these_o few_o year_n since_o there_o have_v be_v more_o freedom_n of_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o i_o very_o believe_v that_o divers_a of_o you_o in_o this_o congregation_n do_v know_v many_o young_a one_o and_o other_o that_o have_v be_v wrought_v upon_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n that_o for_o the_o first_o year_n be_v very_o exact_a and_o very_o careful_a of_o their_o life_n and_o very_o punctual_a in_o every_o thing_n but_o you_o now_o see_v they_o begin_v to_o grow_v loose_a and_o wanton_a and_o vain_a in_o their_o conversation_n oh_o this_o be_v a_o sad_a and_o a_o evil_a thing_n if_o you_o will_v be_v careful_a of_o your_o conversation_n observe_v this_o seven_o rule_n be_v not_o only_o careful_a at_o the_o first_o work_n of_o god_n upon_o you_o when_o you_o begin_v to_o be_v enlighten_v but_o in_o the_o constant_a course_n of_o your_o life_n oh_o give_v i_o a_o professor_n of_o religion_n that_o be_v wrought_v upon_o when_o he_o be_v a_o youth_n or_o a_o young_a maid_n and_o yet_o continue_v till_o they_o be_v old_a disciple_n in_o a_o constant_a way_n of_o holiness_n and_o strictness_n oh_o they_o be_v the_o most_o beautiful_a object_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n to_o behold_v the_o sun_n in_o the_o firmament_n be_v not_o so_o glorious_a as_o a_o ancient_a professor_n of_o religion_n that_o have_v continue_v constant_a in_o the_o way_n of_o godliness_n from_o his_o youth_n that_o can_v say_v as_o good_a obadiah_n once_o say_v 1_o king_n 18._o 12._o i_o have_v fear_v the_o lord_n from_o my_o youth_n and_o my_o conscience_n though_o it_o tell_v i_o of_o many_o fail_n and_o weakness_n yet_o my_o conscience_n excuse_v i_o in_o this_o that_o i_o have_v endeavour_v with_o a_o good_a conscience_n to_o walk_v with_o god_n and_o without_o offence_n to_o man_n and_o not_o give_v way_n to_o myself_o in_o any_o way_n of_o looseness_n since_o god_n make_v know_v himself_o to_o i_o oh_o such_o may_v have_v a_o abundance_n entrance_n into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o die_v with_o abundance_n of_o comfort_n but_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o first_o point_n that_o christian_n ought_v to_o be_v careful_a of_o their_o conversation_n we_o come_v now_o to_o the_o second_o and_o that_o be_v the_o main_a point_n in_o the_o text._n let_v your_o conversation_n be_v as_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n 2._o doct._n every_o kind_n of_o conversation_n of_o professor_n be_v not_o enough_o it_o must_v rise_v to_o that_o height_n as_o must_v be_v suitable_a to_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n meet_v for_o the_o gospel_n that_o they_o do_v profess_v that_o be_v our_o point_n now_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o particular_n what_o conversation_n it_o be_v that_o be_v meet_v for_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n i_o give_v you_o the_o head_n in_o the_o open_n of_o it_o but_o now_o i_o shall_v speak_v to_o they_o first_o that_o conversation_n that_o be_v meet_v and_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n must_v be_v a_o conversation_n raise_v to_o a_o high_a degree_n than_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n will_v raise_v it_o that_o conversation_n that_o be_v no_o high_a than_o possible_o may_v be_v raise_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n certain_o that_o be_v not_o a_o conversation_n become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v beneath_o not_o fit_a for_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n as_o thus_o suppose_v a_o man_n in_o his_o boat_n here_o in_o the_o thames_n row_n very_o exact_o i_o but_o this_o be_v not_o a_o work_n suitable_a to_o show_v the_o skill_n of_o a_o navigator_n of_o one_o that_o profess_v the_o art_n of_o navigation_n it_o be_v beneath_o that_o why_o so_o to_o live_v exact_o according_a to_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n it_o be_v beneath_o the_o conversation_n that_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n if_o so_o be_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v make_v his_o boast_n that_o he_o have_v great_a skill_n in_o the_o art_n of_o navigation_n and_o how_o will_v he_o show_v this_o skill_n he_o will_v go_v into_o a_o boat_n and_o there_o he_o will_v row_v over_o the_o thames_n and_o by_o that_o you_o may_v see_v what_o a_o mighty_a navigator_n he_o be_v this_o will_v be_v ridiculous_a to_o any_o man_n and_o so_o if_o one_o that_o profess_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n will_v manifest_v that_o he_o be_v a_o good_a christian_a what_o do_v he_o do_v the_o life_n that_o he_o live_v it_o be_v no_o other_o than_o a_o man_n by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n may_v be_v enable_v to_o this_o be_v even_o as_o ridiculous_a as_o the_o other_o 1._o as_o now_o for_o instance_n the_o light_n of_o nature_n that_o will_v teach_v this_o that_o we_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n the_o heathen_n have_v worship_v god_n in_o their_o way_n 2._o yea_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n will_v teach_v that_o we_o must_v live_v just_o among_o man_n yea_o and_o that_o we_o must_v do_v as_o we_o will_v be_v do_v to_o this_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n will_v teach_v many_o of_o the_o heathen_n have_v have_v that_o principle_n to_o be_v just_a with_o man_n to_o do_v as_o we_o will_v be_v do_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n condemn_v gross_a sin_n of_o drunkenness_n adultery_n swear_v etc._n etc._n i_o can_v give_v you_o many_o instance_n in_o the_o law_n of_o heathen_n punish_v those_o sin_n very_o severe_o and_o some_o of_o they_o with_o death_n 3._o yea_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n will_v rise_v thus_o high_a that_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v conscientious_a shall_v make_v conscience_n of_o secret_a sin_n of_o sin_n that_o none_o in_o the_o world_n can_v know_v of_o or_o be_v ever_o like_a to_o know_v of_o as_o i_o remember_v sometime_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o of_o one_o of_o the_o heathen_n that_o do_v but_o owe_v for_o a_o pair_n of_o shoe_n to_o a_o shoe_n maker_n and_o no_o body_n know_v it_o but_o only_o the_o shoemaker_n himself_o the_o shoemaker_n die_v no_o body_n can_v challenge_v this_o of_o he_o yet_o his_o conscience_n will_v never_o let_v he_o be_v at_o quiet_a until_o he_o run_v and_o throw_v the_o money_n into_o the_o shop_n and_o say_v though_o he_o be_v dead_a to_o other_o yet_o he_o be_v not_o dead_a to_o i_o whereas_o he_o have_v a_o temptation_n to_o have_v keep_v it_o because_o no_o body_n can_v challenge_v it_o he_o know_v it_o be_v not_o he_o he_o know_v it_o be_v either_o the_o child_n or_o executor_n and_o so_o he_o restortd_v it_o many_o particular_n may_v be_v name_v to_o show_v how_o far_o we_o may_v go_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n but_o now_o i_o only_o bring_v it_o in_o to_o this_o end_n to_o show_v that_o if_o we_o will_v have_v our_o conversation_n such_o as_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n we_o must_v go_v beyond_o what_o ever_o any_o have_v do_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n and_o yet_o oh_o lord_n how_o short_a do_v many_o professor_n of_o religion_n come_v of_o this_o how_o many_o that_o will_v profess_v they_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v by_o christ_n i_o suppose_v there_o be_v not_o any_o one_o in_o this_o congregation_n or_o if_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o every_o one_o house_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o parish_n they_o will_v say_v they_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o yet_o what_o worship_n of_o god_n be_v there_o and_o what_o justice_n be_v there_o among_o man_n to_o do_v as_o they_o will_v be_v do_v by_o nay_o this_o be_v a_o rule_n that_o will_v examine_v many_o professor_n of_o religion_n and_o their_o conscience_n will_v tell_v they_o that_o in_o such_o and_o such_o thing_n they_o will_v be_v loath_a to_o be_v deal_v with_o as_o they_o deal_v with_o other_o and_o for_o gross_a sin_n many_o professor_n of_o religion_n break_v out_o into_o they_o also_o for_o all_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n at_o large_a drunkard_n and_o adulterer_n and_o blasphemer_n and_o yet_o they_o will_v come_v and_o make_v profession_n of_o religion_n and_o think_v it_o very_o much_o if_o they_o shall_v be_v deny_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n why_o be_v they_o not_o christian_n and_o their_o child_n christian_n and_o yet_o must_v they_o not_o be_v baptise_a and_o yet_o they_o be_v beneath_o heathen_n heathen_n will_v rise_v in_o judgement_n against_o they_o and_o for_o conscienciousness_n in_o secret_a i_o appeal_v to_o every_o one_o of_o your_o conscience_n be_v there_o no_o sin_n that_o
in_o all_o their_o deal_n in_o their_o deal_n with_o god_n in_o their_o deal_n between_o man_n and_o man_n to_o see_v one_o that_o profess_v the_o gospel_n &_o sometime_o account_v the_o foot_n of_o those_o beautiful_a that_o bring_v glad_a tiding_n of_o salvation_n yet_o unjust_a in_o his_o deal_n so_o as_o do_v but_o follow_v he_o in_o his_o course_n between_o man_n and_o man_n there_o he_o make_v no_o conscience_n of_o justice_n there_o he_o will_v rather_o break_v the_o rule_n of_o justice_n than_o it_o may_v be_v he_o will_v lose_v six_o penny_n or_o a_o shilling_n what_o if_o it_o be_v the_o lose_n of_o thirty_o or_o forty_o pound_n be_v it_o such_o a_o thing_n that_o the_o rule_n of_o justice_n must_v rather_o be_v break_v than_o the_o loss_n of_o a_o little_a money_n be_v this_o as_o become_v the_o gospel_n when_o as_o thou_o hear_v the_o gospel_n say_v that_o rather_o than_o the_o glory_n of_o justice_n shall_v be_v darken_v the_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n must_v go_v for_o it_o and_o god_n expect_v that_o christian_n shall_v be_v so_o in_o love_n with_o justice_n that_o they_o shall_v rather_o be_v content_a to_o be_v undo_v in_o their_o estate_n to_o beg_v their_o bread_n from_o door_n to_o door_n than_o be_v unjust_a in_o any_o of_o their_o action_n oh_o it_o be_v a_o exceed_a eclipse_v of_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o word_n when_o professor_n of_o it_o shall_v be_v false_a in_o their_o deal_n oh_o remember_v thou_o christian_n who_o hold_v up_o the_o gospel_n with_o thy_o right_a hand_n that_o when_o thou_o hear_v of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n there_o the_o love_n that_o god_n bear_v to_o justice_n be_v hold_v forth_o and_o god_n be_v set_v upon_o the_o honour_n of_o justice_n and_o he_o will_v have_v it_o thy_o justice_n in_o thy_o trade_n this_o must_v be_v make_v up_o one_o way_n or_o other_o either_o thou_o must_v pay_v eternal_o for_o it_o and_o so_o justice_n make_v up_o or_o else_o it_o must_v cost_v the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n god_n be_v set_v upon_o justice_n in_o another_o manner_n than_o you_o think_v of_o oh_o let_v your_o conversation_n be_v as_o become_v this_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n five_o that_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o gospel_n show_v how_o he_o be_v set_v upon_o satisfy_v the_o law_n and_o what_o a_o high_a price_n he_o put_v upon_o the_o law_n the_o excellency_n of_o the_o law_n do_v more_o clear_o appear_v in_o the_o gospel_n than_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n its_o self_n as_o thus_o christ_n come_v to_o fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n sure_o god_n set_v a_o high_a price_n of_o his_o law_n that_o he_o will_v not_o save_v any_o soul_n live_v that_o have_v break_v it_o but_o by_o his_o son_n that_o must_v come_v to_o fulfil_v it_o first_o he_o must_v have_v all_o righteousness_n keep_v &_o to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o may_v manifest_v his_o love_n unto_o his_o law_n i_o say_v therefore_o it_o be_v that_o christ_n must_v come_v and_o subject_n himself_o to_o the_o law_n he_o must_v be_v under_o the_o law_n it_o be_v from_o thence_o that_o christ_n say_v it_o become_v we_o to_o fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n so_o be_v god_n set_v

of_o god_n it_o be_v true_a you_o can_v keep_v it_o for_o justification_n that_o be_v christ_n task_n so_o to_o keep_v the_o law_n that_o he_o may_v justify_v sinner_n god_n by_o this_o teach_v we_o

be_v in_o case_n of_o scandal_n and_o contempt_n so_o our_o divine_n that_o have_v be_v the_o most_o orthodox_n have_v go_v that_o the_o law_n of_o man_n in_o the_o state_n they_o bind_v not_o

be_v a_o very_a hard_a bondage_n a_o cruel_a yoke_n but_o thus_o if_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v require_v be_v right_a and_o just_a than_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n may_v bind_v conscience_n for_o then_o there_o come_v in_o a_o law_n of_o god_n if_o the_o thing_n be_v just_a and_o right_a that_o be_v require_v or_o however_o if_o i_o know_v nothing_o to_o the_o contrary_a but_o it_o may_v be_v just_a and_o right_a i_o must_v not_o break_v the_o law_n of_o man_n so_o as_o to_o give_v scandal_n or_o in_o a_o way_n of_o contempt_n but_o if_o it_o be_v private_o so_o as_o it_o be_v no_o

not_o every_o thing_n that_o man_n require_v but_o now_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v such_o as_o bind_v conscience_n as_o they_o come_v from_o he_o he_o be_v such_o a_o king_n that_o i_o

the_o thing_n but_o mere_o the_o will_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v enough_o to_o tie_v conscience_n and_o to_o bind_v we_o even_o upon_o pain_n of_o eternal_a death_n to_o obedience_n five_o christ_n

tender_v up_o their_o homage_n unto_o their_o earthly_a king_n by_o any_o way_n invent_v of_o their_o own_o therefore_o they_o have_v think_v that_o they_o may_v presume_v to_o tender_v up_o their_o homage_n to_o christ_n their_o spiritual_a king_n by_o any_o way_n of_o invent_a worship_n and_o therein_o be_v a_o great_a error_n they_o look_v upon_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n only_o in_o a_o carnal_a way_n whereas_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v such_o as_o all_o our_o homage_n that_o we_o tender_v up_o to_o he_o must_v be_v spiritual_a it_o must_v be_v heavenly_a it_o must_v be_v

they_o be_v dead_a in_o trespass_n and_o sin_n they_o be_v under_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n they_o be_v even_o enemy_n to_o god_n this_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o all_o man_n before_o this_o

be_v of_o the_o world_n the_o world_n will_v love_v you_o but_o you_o be_v not_o of_o the_o world_n therefore_o the_o world_n hate_v you_o you_o be_v translate_v into_o another_o kingdom_n and_o therefore_o their_o spirit_n be_v bitter_a against_o you_o and_o their_o tongue_n as_o sharp_a as_o two_o edge_a sword_n you_o come_v to_o live_v by_o other_o law_n than_o they_o do_v they_o know_v no_o other_o law_n but_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n where_o they_o live_v but_o you_o have_v other_o law_n that_o they_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o authority_n of_o you_o have_v other_o rule_n for_o your_o conscience_n than_o they_o have_v their_o conscience_n can_v yield_v to_o this_o or_o that_o according_a as_o may_v serve_v for_o their_o worldly_a end_n but_o now_o your_o conscience_n be_v subject_v to_o another_o authority_n you_o can_v have_v your_o conscience_n yield_v up_o and_o down_o as_o they_o can_v and_o thereupon_o they_o think_v it_o to_o be_v stoutness_n in_o you_o but_o god_n know_v it_o to_o be_v otherwise_o and_o they_o wonder_v at_o this_o they_o understand_v not_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o they_o malign_v you_o they_o hate_v you_o with_o a_o perfect_a hatred_n you_o be_v rebel_n against_o their_o kingdom_n they_o be_v under_o the_o kingdom_n of_o satan_n but_o you_o be_v bring_v under_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o do_v rebel_n against_o that_o kingdom_n we_o hate_v rebel_n it_o be_v true_a in_o some_o sense_n all_o the_o saint_n be_v rebel_n that_o be_v they_o do_v rebel_n against_o the_o

into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n you_o live_v upon_o other_o principle_n and_o have_v other_o end_n you_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o separate_a people_n from_o the_o world_n and_o we_o know_v there_o
