thus_o do_v they_o put_v thou_o upon_o more_o close_a and_o constant_a pursuance_n of_o god_n upon_o endeavour_v to_o walk_v close_o with_o he_o and_o to_o redeem_v time_n for_o he_o this_o carry_v

he_o after_o his_o lust_n all_o the_o while_n and_o where_o conscience_n be_v awaken_v and_o the_o will_v not_o change_v there_o the_o devil_n may_v steal_v these_o trouble_n away_o upon_o false_a

be_v this_o by_o labour_v to_o inform_v ourselves_o aright_o what_o difference_n there_o be_v betwixt_o these_o and_o former_a conviction_n and_o whether_o these_o be_v better_o than_o they_o or_o

a._n i_o may_v give_v you_o many_o thing_n but_o i_o touch_v it_o now_o but_o occasionallie_o therefore_o i_o shall_v confine_v myself_o to_o these_o three_o short_a direction_n observe_v thy_o 1_o trouble_n 2_o ●_z 3_o endeavour_n first_o observe_v thy_o trouble_n whether_o they_o be_v most_o for_o the_o sense_n of_o sin_n or_o the_o apprehension_n of_o wrath_n if_o conscience_n be_v only_o awaken_v that_o eye_n only_o the_o wrath_n to_o come_v and_o think_v of_o nothing_o else_o but_o of_o escape_v and_o it_o take_v not_o sin_n into_o consideration_n but_o as_o it_o be_v force_v by_o the_o necessary_a connexion_n betwixt_o that_o and_o judgement_n but_o if_o the_o will_n and_o affection_n be_v wrought_v over_o in_o this_o trouble_n than_o the_o great_a trouble_n be_v because_o of_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n as_o it_o dishonour_v god_n and_o as_o it_o hinder_v the_o soul_n from_o communion_n with_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n be_v trouble_v at_o the_o presence_n of_o that_o and_o study_n how_o it_o may_v be_v rid_v of_o that_o sin_n be_v a_o heavy_a burden_n to_o a_o sanctify_a will_n but_o wrath_n be_v the_o only_a burden_n to_o a_o entangle_a but_o not_o renew_v conscience_n 2_o observe_v thy_o desire_n what_o do_v they_o run_v out_o most_o after_o christ_n or_o comfort_n peace_n or_o purity_n if_o the_o trouble_n be_v only_o a_o force_a trouble_n from_o conscience_n than_o the_o soul_n do_v ordinary_o look_v no_o far_o than_o the_o present_a trouble_n and_o how_o to_o be_v rid_v of_o that_o it_o be_v peace_n that_o conscience_n look_v after_o but_o if_o the_o will_v be_v move_v that_o must_v have_v something_o else_o beside_o peace_n it_o be_v not_o a_o calm_a wilserve_v the_o turn_n it_o must_v have_v christ_n and_o communion_n with_o he_o or_o nothing_o will_v satisfy_v 3_o look_v to_o thy_o endeavour_n when_o be_v they_o strong_a and_o most_o vigorous_a and_o draw_v out_o most_o after_o heaven_n and_o heavenly_a thing_n in_o thy_o trouble_n or_o in_o thy_o calm_n i_o have_v observe_v some_o that_o when_o they_o have_v be_v under_o trouble_n and_o terror_n of_o conscience_n they_o will_v then_o be_v very_o stir_v and_o seem_v to_o take_v much_o pain_n for_o heaven_n but_o when_o conscience_n be_v a_o little_a quiet_v they_o lay_v aside_o their_o religion_n and_o there_o be_v no_o more_o noise_n of_o it_o this_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o their_o stir_n be_v bare_o from_o conscience_n but_o other_o soul_n who_o will_n be_v wrought_v upon_o as_o well_o as_o their_o conscience_n have_v be_v more_o active_a and_o stir_v in_o the_o way_n of_o god_n as_o they_o have_v get_v more_o peace_n and_o assurance_n of_o god_n love_n and_o there_o be_v a_o clear_a reason_n for_o such_o different_a effect_n from_o their_o quiet_n because_o quiet_a and_o peace_n be_v the_o thing_n which_o the_o inflame_a conscience_n seek_v for_o but_o the_o sanctify_a will_n and_o affection_n seek_v for_o another_o thing_n and_o although_o a_o little_a peace_n may_v satisfy_v conscience_n and_o take_v off_o the_o edge_n of_o it_o this_o will_v set_v a_o edge_n upon_o the_o affection_n that_o which_o calm_v conscience_n quicken_v the_o sanctify_a will_n for_o every_o relish_n that_o it_o have_v of_o grace_n or_o peace_n make_v it_o seek_v for_o more_o try_v yourselves_o by_o these_o thing_n and_o if_o you_o find_v that_o your_o conviction_n be_v accompany_v with_o the_o stir_n of_o the_o will_n and_o affection_n be_v of_o good_a hope_n for_o thy_o day_n of_o grace_n be_v not_o over_o if_o thou_o have_v a_o will_n for_o god_n if_o he_o strive_v and_o you_o grow_v more_o tender_a and_o sensible_a fear_v not_o to_o follow_v thy_o conviction_n and_o to_o lay_v hold_n of_o the_o promise_n which_o suit_n with_o thy_o condition_n let_v former_a conviction_n neglect_v humble_v thou_o but_o let_v they_o not_o discourage_v thou_o but_o withal_o take_v this_o word_n of_o advice_n and_o so_o i_o shall_v conclude_v 1_o take_v heed_n of_o thy_o heart_n lest_o it_o deceive_v thou_o thou_o have_v have_v such_o stir_n which_o do_v look_v like_o a_o work_n of_o grace_n before_o but_o they_o have_v die_v away_o be_v jealous_a of_o these_o lest_o they_o shall_v do_v so_o also_o thou_o know_v how_o subject_a the_o heart_n be_v to_o grow_v cold_a and_o to_o shift_v and_o put_v off_o conviction_n and_o when_o it_o be_v under_o they_o how_o seem_o willing_a it_o be_v to_o convert_v and_o return_v to_o god_n how_o ready_a to_o make_v promise_n and_o vow_n to_o god_n and_o how_o ready_a to_o forsake_v all_o these_o again_o it_o have_v cheat_v thou_o once_o already_o therefore_o watch_v it_o as_o a_o deceitful_a thing_n the_o way_n not_o to_o be_v deceive_v be_v to_o expect_v it_o or_o at_o least_o fear_v it_o 2_o resolve_v to_o take_v the_o more_o pain_n because_o thou_o have_v lose_v so_o many_o precious_a opportunity_n know_v that_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o near_o to_o happiness_n and_o eternal_a life_n then_o other_o man_n thou_o be_v far_o off_o and_o thou_o have_v need_v labour_n to_o redeem_v what_o thou_o have_v lose_v 3_o believe_v not_o satan_n who_o say_v thy_o day_n be_v over_o for_o he_o know_v it_o not_o and_o
