The application of redemption

Your heedless and fearless professors, who notwithstanding §1lift up their head full high, and would bear the world in hand that they desire unfeignedly to fear the Lord, nay pretend a Conscientious care to Gods Command; and conceive they have been affected with their sin and that not in a small measure, but have had both sight of, and sorrow for their failings and they hope to good purpose, and would be loath (prejudice being laid aside) it should appear to be other. You say well and if you prove what you say happy it is for you, which I […] desire. But are you willing to put your case ⟨p. 418⟩to the trial? let us a little parley about the business and because we will deal plainly, your own practices and your own consciences shall bring in evidence and those I hope are beyond exception, you careless servants in the family; you careless hearers in the Assemblies, and you careless professors in the plantations, you are here indited that the practice of this heart-breaking sorrow for sin is a stranger to you, and you a stranger to it in your daily course, we shall then agree upon the grounds on which we shall proceed.
