First, These stirrings that are now upon thee, that 1put thee thus to oppose the ways of sin, and to bring thee so far as to be in suspense, know, they are the work of the holy Ghost in thee, take heed of sinning against the holy Ghost; I do not say, that all going against such stirrings and workings is, The sin, that unpardonable sin; but this I say, the sinning against those stirrings and workings of thy conscience is A sin against the holy Ghost, take heed of sinning against the good Spirit of God; The holy Ghost hath begun to conceive in thee, take heed thou doest not destroy the child in the womb. We know it's murder to destroy a child in the womb, when it is but 2beginning to be conceived; And thou that art in this suspense, thou hast a conception of the holy Ghost in thee; take heed of murdering of it.
