This íhould
be
a
means to keep
us
from
fin,
and
to
keep
us in
a
holy
life
:
for
according
to
our
works
fo will be
the
evi-
dences
of
our
confciences,
whether they
be
good or
evil.
We
had need
to
take
heed
what
we
write
in
our
confciences
;
for
ac-
cording
to
what
is
written
there,fo
(hall we
be
judged.
There-
fore
if
any finne
fiandeth upon record
in
our
confciences, we
had need
get it
blotted
out
by
the
bloud
of
Chrifl, Repent ,

THus
I
have
(hewed

of
confcience
about
things
heretofore done. Now
let

[hew you the
atfedi-

the
difcharge
of
thefe
offices.
Ye
have
heard
that
confcience
hath foure
offices
in
things
heretofore
done
; r
.
an office
to

;
2.
an office
to
abfolve
;
3.
an
office
to
diflike
;
4.
an
office
to

The two former
when
we have
done well
and
lived well
;
then
the
office
of
con-
fcience
is
to
approve
and abfolve
:
The
two latter
when
we
have
done
ill
and
lived ill
