consider_v the_o great_a sin_n and_o provocation_n they_o come_v over_o the_o head_n of_o the_o great_a unworthiness_n of_o the_o receiver_n heighten_v much_o the_o mercy_n and_o favour_n receive_v the_o reason_n why_o person_n do_v not_o greaten_v their_o deliverance_n be_v because_o they_o do_v not_o greaten_v their_o sin_n in_o the_o deep_a sense_n and_o aggravation_n of_o they_o o_o such_o a_o soul_n will_v say_v as_o david_n be_v this_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n o_o god_n be_v not_o this_o a_o great_a deliverance_n for_o such_o a_o great_a sinner_n to_o receive_v 4._o they_o be_v great_a deliverance_n if_o we_o consider_v the_o time_n and_o season_n of_o their_o come_n in_o as_o this_o deliverance_n of_o the_o ship_n company_n where_o paul_n be_v it_o be_v when_o all_o hope_n of_o be_v save_v be_v take_v away_o and_o so_o be_v many_o of_o the_o deliverance_n mention_v in_o this_o treatise_n so_o peter_n sea-deliverance_n when_o he_o begin_v to_o sink_v christ_n stretch_v

29_o 30._o our_o sink_a time_n be_v jesus_n christ_n save_v time_n in_o the_o mount_n be_v the_o lord_n see_v our_o extremity_n be_v god_n opportunity_n and_o be_v not_o then_o these_o great_a deliverance_n never_o to_o be_v forget_v 5._o they_o be_v great_a deliverance_n if_o we_o consider_v they_o be_v not_o only_a deliverance_n of_o body_n and_o ship_n and_o estate_n sometime_o but_o soul_n and_o where_o the_o ship_n be_v lose_v and_o the_o estate_n be_v lose_v yet_o for_o the_o life_n to_o be_v save_v and_o the_o soul_n deliver_v be_v a_o very_a great_a deliverance_n a_o reprieve_n when_o a_o prisoner_n be_v under_o the_o sentence_n of_o death_n be_v a_o great_a mercy_n o_o when_o god_n reprieve_n a_o poor_a prisoner_n this_o be_v some_o deliverance_n we_o read_v o●_n some_o deliverance_n god_n give_v to_o israel_n in_o the_o day_n of_o shishak_n a_o reprieve_n be_v some_o deliverance_n but_o if_o it_o end_v in_o sue_v out_o the_o prisoner_n pardon_v than_o it_o be_v a_o great_a deliverance_n if_o it_o be_v such_o a_o deliverance_n in_o a_o storm_n at_o sea_n as_o hezekiah_n have_v from_o a_o sickness_n at_o shoar_n thou_o have_v deliver_v i_o in_o love_n to_o my_o soul_n and_o cast_v all_o my_o sin_n behind_o thy_o back_n isa_n 38._o this_o be_v a_o double_a deliverance_n and_o sure_a such_o deliverance_n as_o these_o be_v worth_a recording_n these_o be_v to_o be_v write_v in_o marble_n and_o not_o in_o dust_n with_o the_o pen_n of_o iron_n as_o the_o prophet_n say_v and_o not_o with_o with_o point_n of_o a_o diamond_n 3._o your_o deliverance_n be_v wonderful_a if_o you_o consider_v the_o many_o thousand_o that_o have_v perish_v in_o less_o danger_n to_o a_o eye_n of_o reason_n they_o be_v distinguish_v deliverance_n and_o therefore_o wonderful_a have_v god_n deal_v with_o all_o man_n that_o go_v to_o sea_n as_o with_o you_o have_v not_o thousand_o perish_v by_o the_o sword_n at_o sea_n in_o bloody_a engagement_n miscarry_v at_o sea_n in_o dreadful_a and_o terrible_a storm_n have_v not_o the_o sea_n be_v a_o sepulchre_n for_o thousand_o be_v not_o there_o million_o of_o the_o dead_a that_o the_o sea_n must_v one_o day_n give_v up_o and_o yet_o you_o deliver_v and_o yet_o you_o spare_v o_o what_o distinguish_v mercy_n be_v this_o and_o shall_v this_o be_v forget_v by_o you_o shall_v not_o you_o keep_v record_n of_o distinguish_a mercy_n how_o

this_o that_o salvation_n and_o deliverance_n many_o time_n be_v not_o send_v until_o person_n be_v leave_v helpless_a and_o hopeless_a i_o shall_v give_v you_o a_o touch_n of_o this_o now_o all_o hope_n of_o be_v save_v be_v take_v away_o no_o small_a tempest_n lie_v upon_o they_o now_o they_o be_v gulf_v in_o despair_n of_o ever_o come_v off_o with_o their_o life_n yet_o this_o often_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o nation_n ship-company_n and_o person_n where_o god_n intend_v to_o save_v and_o deliver_v the_o proof_n of_o the_o last_o observation_n about_o danger_n and_o deliverance_n be_v record_v and_o remember_v prove_v this_o also_o thus_o be_v peter_n save_v the_o disciple_n save_v when_o just_a at_o sink_v but_o why_o do_v god_n stay_v so_o long_o before_o he_o send_v deliverance_n and_o salvation_n 1._o because_o he_o delight_v to_o draw_v forth_o a_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n if_o man_n will_v not_o pray_v when_o sink_v when_o drown_v when_o die_v they_o will_v never_o pray_v o_o see_v how_o jonah_n pray_v in_o his_o distress_n and_o jonah_n pray_v to_o the_o lord_n out_o of_o the_o fish_n belly_n and_o say_v i_o cry_v by_o reason_n of_o my_o affliction_n unto_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o hear_v i_o out_o of_o the_o belly_n of_o hell_n cry_v i_o and_o thou_o hear_v my_o voice_n etc._n etc._n when_o my_o soul_n faint_v within_o i_o i_o remember_v the_o lord_n and_o my_o prayer_n come_v in_o unto_o thy_o holy_a temple_n jonah_n 2._o 1_o 2_o 3_o 7._o o_o sir_n god_n love_v prayer_n so_o well_o that_o he_o stay_v with_o his_o deliverance_n that_o we_o may_v sue_v they_o out_o by_o prayer_n out_o of_o the_o depth_n have_v i_o cry_v unto_o thou_o say_v david_n psal_n 130._o 1._o drive_a to_o it_o by_o deep_a and_o bottomless_a strait_n into_o which_o i_o be_o plunge_v and_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o allusion_n to_o mariner_n in_o their_o distress_n and_o danger_n of_o be_v shipwrack_v cry_v unto_o the_o lord._n what_o will_v any_o man_n perish_v and_o never_o pray_v house_n when_o he_o have_v so_o long_o be_v starve_v in_o the_o field_n with_o his_o husk_n among_o the_o swine_n 4._o because_o god_n will_v have_v all_o his_o salvation_n and_o deliverance_n look_v like_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o arm_n his_o own_o arm_n bring_v salvation_n with_o he_o he_o will_v have_v the_o print_n of_o his_o own_o hand_n upon_o it_o that_o poor_a sinner_n may_v say_v this_o be_v the_o finger_n of_o god_n the_o do_n of_o god_n and_o it_o be_v marvellous_a in_o our_o eye_n alas_o man_n will_v attribute_v it_o to_o themselves_o if_o salvation_n do_v not_o come_v in_o such_o a_o way_n when_o all_o hope_n of_o be_v save_v be_v take_v away_o oh_o every_o thing_n be_v beautiful_a in_o its_o season_n be_v not_o salvation_n and_o deliverance_n now_o in_o season_n now_o they_o begin_v to_o despair_v as_o to_o probable_a or_o visible_a hope_n o_o now_o god_n work_v like_o himself_o now_o he_o appear_v in_o a_o deliverance_n to_o be_v god_n which_o set_v the_o disciple_n a_o wonder_v what_o manner_n of_o man_n be_v this_o that_o the_o wind_n and_o sea_n obey_v he_o mark_v 4._o 41._o and_o at_o another_o time_n when_o he_o deliver_v his_o disciple_n at_o sea_n and_o calm_v the_o wind_n than_o they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o ship_n worship_v he_o say_v of_o a_o truth_n thou_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n matth._n 14._o 32_o 33._o 5._o because_o he_o will_v by_o such_o salvation_n set_v off_o his_o love_n to_o poor_a soul_n be_v not_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n set_v off_o high_o in_o take_v that_o season_n to_o save_v the_o ship_n when_o it_o be_v full_a to_o save_v they_o when_o they_o be_v fink_v be_v not_o that_o great_a love_n that_o step_v forth_o to_o save_v in_o a_o extremity_n o_o what_o love_n be_v this_o to_o save_v this_o ship_n company_n when_o all_o hope_n of_o be_v save_v be_v take_v away_o love_v always_o choose_v the_o fit_a time_n to_o appear_v and_o evidence_n itself_o last_o because_o he_o will_v have_v his_o
