much_o much_o forgivenss_n be_v the_o ground_n of_o love_a much_o and_o love_v much_o be_v a_o fign_n of_o much_o forgiveness_n for_o it_o follow_v but_o to_o who_o little_a be_v forgive_v the_o

clear_v of_o this_o truth_n let_v we_o i_o pray_v descend_v into_o the_o particular_n of_o repentance_n and_o consider_v how_o the_o grace_n and_o mercy_n and_o love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o this_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n have_v a_o influence_n upon_o they_o all_o and_o how_o all_o of_o they_o be_v cause_v thereby_o first_o a_o man_n that_o do_v repent_v must_v see_v and_o know_v his_o sin_n true-sight_n of_o sin_n be_v requisite_a to_o true_a repentance_n indeed_o a_o man_n may_v in_o some_o measure_n attain_v unto_o the_o knowledge_n and_o discovery_n of_o his_o sin_n by_o some_o affliction_n when_o adoni-bezek_a have_v his_o finger_n and_o toe_n cut_v off_o you_o know_v what_o he_o say_v thus_o have_v i_o do_v affliction_n do_v unleave_a a_o man_n take_v off_o his_o leaf_n when_o the_o leaf_n be_v off_o the_o hedge_n you_o see_v those_o birds-nest_n that_o you_o can_v not_o see_v before_o when_o the_o leaf_n be_v on_o and_o so_o when_o affliction_n have_v make_v one_o naked_a and_o take_v one_o leaf_n off_o a_o man_n be_v able_a to_o see_v those_o nest_n of_o corruption_n in_o his_o own_o heart_n that_o he_o never_o do_v see_v before_o the_o apostle_n say_v by_o the_o law_n be_v the_o knowledge_n of_o sin_n but_o now_o though_o by_o the_o law_n as_o by_o a_o rule_n we_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o by_o affliction_n we_o be_v help_v to_o see_v the_o nest_n of_o our_o own_o heart_n yet_o notwithstanding_o a_o man_n can_v see_v his_o sin_n full_o but_o by_o gospel-light_n it_o be_v a_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o convince_v of_o sin_n i_o will_v send_v the_o spirit_n the_o comforter_n and_o he_o shall_v convince_v the_o world_n of_o sin_n and_o where_o do_v the_o spirit_n breath_n but_o in_o the_o gospel_n the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n receive_v you_o the_o spirit_n say_v the_o apostle_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n or_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o faith_n when_o once_o esay_n the_o prophet_n have_v have_v a_o fight_n of_o christ_n he_o cry_v out_o vae_fw-la mihi_fw-la i_o be_o undo_v we_o be_v i_o i_o be_o undo_v i_o be_o unclean_a again_o for_o i_o will_v but_o touch_v upon_o these_o as_o a_o man_n must_v know_v his_o sin_n so_o if_o he_o will_v repent_v true_o he_o must_v be_v grieve_v and_o humble_v for_o it_o if_o you_o look_v into_o the_o 7._o of_o luke_n you_o may_v see_v what_o work_n it_o have_v a_o woman_n a_o great_a sinner_n come_v to_o christ_n and_o she_o wash_v his_o foot_n with_o her_o tear_n what_o make_v she_o do_v so_o she_o love_v much_o for_o much_o be_v forgive_v she_o so_o that_o the_o more_o the_o love_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o chrst_n be_v open_v in_o the_o gospel_n or_o do_v make_v its_o

must_v and_o he_o will_v loathe_v himself_o self-loa-thing_n be_v requisite_a to_o repentance_n if_o a_o man_n have_v take_v a_o surfeit_n by_o cate_v or_o drink_v he_o do_v not_o only_o loathe_v the_o meat_n which_o cause_v the_o surfeit_n but_o he_o loathe_v the_o very_a vessel_n that_o have_v the_o smell_n of_o the_o meat_n or_o the_o liquor_n in_o it_o so_o now_o when_o a_o man_n come_v to_o repent_v he_o do_v not_o only_o loathe_v his_o sin_n but_o he_o loathe_v himself_o the_o vessel_n where_o the_o sin_n be_v oh_o these_o filthy_a eye_n of_o i_o oh_o these_o vile_a hand_n oh_o this_o vile_a heart_n of_o i_o he_o loathe_v himself_o but_o what_o cause_v this_o self-loathing_a the_o prophet_n ezekiel_n will_v tell_v you_o in_o the_o 20._o of_o ezekiel_n the_o 41_o 42_o and_o 43._o verse_n then_o shall_v you_o loathe_v yourselves_o when_o i_o be_o pacify_v or_o when_o god_n have_v show_v they_o mercy_n cause_v his_o love_n to_o approach_v unto_o they_o then_o shall_v
