well_o as_o a_o saviour_n none_o of_o they_o do_v look_v upon_o jesus_n christ_n that_o he_o may_v deliver_v their_o soul_n from_o the_o power_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o work_v righteousness_n in_o they_o as_o well_o as_o deliver_v they_o from_o the_o wrath_n that_o be_v to_o come_v therefore_o though_o some_o of_o they_o will_v be_v glad_a to_o be_v save_v from_o hell_n by_o christ_n yet_o to_o look_v upon_o christ_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o purity_n and_o holiness_n as_o altogether_o lovely_a this_o none_o of_o they_o can_v do_v three_o and_o last_o none_o of_o they_o do_v lift_v up_o god_n as_o the_o high_a end_n of_o all_o and_o give_v up_o themselves_o and_o all_o that_o they_o have_v or_o be_v or_o can_v do_v be_v empty_a of_o themselves_o so_o as_o to_o lift_v up_o god_n as_o reveal_v in_o christ_n as_o the_o high_a end_n so_o as_o god_n and_o christ_n to_o be_v all_o in_o all_o to_o their_o soul_n they_o go_v not_o thus_o far_o and_o therefore_o do_v not_o think_v that_o it_o be_v a_o put_v people_n to_o great_a strait_n to_o tell_v they_o how_o far_o many_o go_v who_o soul_n be_v lose_v and_o if_o they_o go_v no_o further_o their_o soul_n will_v likewise_o be_v

be_v please_v this_o evening_n to_o cause_v every_o one_o in_o this_o congregation_n to_o examine_v themselves_o and_o call_v their_o soul_n into_o question_n o_o my_o soul_n how_o be_v it_o with_o thou_o how_o do_v thing_n stand_v between_o god_n and_o thou_o be_v thou_o in_o such_o a_o estate_n as_o if_o god_n shall_v call_v for_o thou_o out_o of_o the_o body_n this_o moment_n that_o thou_o shall_v be_v save_v oh_o be_v not_o satisfy_v in_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n till_o you_o come_v to_o a_o resolution_n in_o these_o thing_n and_o if_o you_o find_v that_o these_o thing_n speak_v against_o you_o and_o your_o soul_n be_v cast_v by_o they_o for_o the_o present_a do_v not_o sleight_v they_o for_o very_o god_n will_v make_v they_o good_a upon_o thou_o these_o thing_n shall_v stand_v when_o thy_o soul_n shall_v perish_v wherefore_o then_o this_o be_v the_o last_o use_n about_o this_o point_n of_o the_o dreadful_a loss_n of_o the_o soul_n use_v oh_o then_o let_v every_o man_n or_o woman_n propound_v this_o question_n 16.30_o act._n 16.30_o what_o shall_v i_o then_o do_v to_o be_v save_v the_o world_n be_v trouble_v with_o a_o great_a many_o question_n at_o this_o day_n question_n that_o have_v no_o great_a necessity_n in_o they_o but_o here_o be_v the_o great_a question_n man_n and_o brethren_n what_o shall_v i_o do_v to_o be_v save_v and_o if_o people_n when_o they_o meet_v together_o will_v be_v take_v up_o and_o be_v ask_v of_o this_o question_n one_o of_o another_o it_o will_v prevent_v a_o great_a many_o wrangle_n and_o jangle_v question_n that_o man_n spend_v their_o time_n in_o oh_o when_o they_o be_v ask_v of_o you_o many_o such_o vain_a question_n answer_v those_o vain_a question_n but_o thus_o i_o but_o do_v you_o know_v how_o one_o may_v do_v to_o be_v save_v tell_v i_o something_o of_o the_o way_n of_o god_n about_o the_o salvation_n of_o my_o soul_n and_o that_o be_v that_o that_o both_o minister_n and_o

all_o mean_n to_o cause_v they_o to_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o vain_a jangle_a people_n that_o shall_v fill_v their_o head_n with_o a_o great_a many_o curious_a question_n about_o controversy_n

we_o plain_o that_o we_o must_v not_o receive_v the_o weak_a in_o faith_n unto_o doubtful_a disputation_n 14.1_o rom._n 14.1_o but_o object_n you_o will_v say_v we_o must_v inquire_v after_o all_o

their_o head_n fill_v with_o doubtful_a disputation_n it_o be_v the_o plain_a scripture_n and_o it_o be_v as_o plain_a if_o we_o will_v understand_v it_o as_o thou_o shall_v not_o steal_v or_o
