fatisfird
and
quieted with that
;
as
a
C
.ld
that hath
apiece of
Gold
given
him
and
an
Apple,
he
will
be
ftill'd
with the Apple
;
fo many men'fue
to
God
for this greaywork
of,
pardon
of fin,
but let
God
give
them
health
and accommodations in the
world,
they
are fatisfird
and contented with
them,
and little or never
feek after the
pardon
of their fin;
that
is a
fifth
fort that are
charged
this
day before
the
Lord that
do
but
dally
with
God
about feeking pardon for
their
fins.
Sixthly,
They-that are quiet
upon
ive4k
send
flight Evidences
difhonour God
;
certainly they
have
not thofe high thoughts
of
the
mercy of
God
in pardoning
fin,
that content
themfelves
with
poor
Evidences about
it
as
molt
do
;
come
to many
people,--and
ask
them,
What
?
you hope that
God
will
pardon
'your fins;
yes
we do
hope,
but
upon the
pooreft
Evidences imaginable
thofe Evidences they lay
the weight
of
the
pardon
of
their
fins
upon, are
fuch
broken reeds
that
it
would
make
a
man
amazed,
that
underftands what
the worth of
a
poor
foul is,
that they
fhould venture
fo
great
a
thing
on fo
flight
a
reed
;
What
is
the
reafon
?
becaufe they have but flight
thoughts
of
the forgivenefs
of
fin
:
that,
that
a
man puts
a
high valuation of.,
he
will
make
lure
;
but
that which
he flights,
he
is
not fo intenfe
in.;
as
to in-
fiance,
if
one give
you
in
payment Silver,
Gold
and
Farthings,
you
take the
Farthings
and do
not
tell
them;
but
you
tell
the
Silver,
and
the
Gold
you not
only
tell
it
9
but
weigh
it
too ;
What
is
the reafon
?
becaufe
you little
efteem
of
the Brafs,
and
fo will
not
tell
-it
,
you more
efteem the Silver,
and
therefore
tell
that
;
but
the
Gold
you not
only
tell,
but
weigh
it,
becaufe
you
have
a
greater
efteem
of
that
than the
other
:
this
is
an
argument
,
may convince the
men
of
the
world
,
that their
efteem
of
earthly
things
is
more
than
of
Heaven
and
their
fouls
becaufe
they
labour
to make
earthly
things
more
lure
than
the things
of
Heaven
;
a
worldly
man
to
make
fure his Estate
will have Bond upon
Bond,
and
Seal
upon Seal, and
carry
his
Evidences to Counfellors, and
fay, I
befeech
you Sirs,
fee
whe-
ther
there
be
not force flaw
in
them,
I
fhall
lofe
all
my
money
if
!here
be
but
a
crack
in
my
Evidences
:
he
is
mighty
careful
of
this,becaufe
he
hath
fuch
a
high
efteem
of
his
worldly
concerns
:
But
how
does
it
appear that
men have but
poor low thoughts
about
