Therefore my dearly beloved, if that your since do now displease you, if you purpose unfeignedly to be enemies to jinn in your selves and in others, as you may, during your whole life, if you hope in Christ for pardon, if you believe according to the holy scriptures and articles of the Christian faith set forth in your Creed, if I say, you now trust in Gods mercy through Christs merits, if you repent, and earnestly purpose vefore God to amend your life, and to give over yourselves ⟨image 99⟩to serve the Lord in holiness and righteousness all the days of your life, although before this present you have most grievously sinned. I publish unto you that you are worthy guests for this table, you shall be welcome to Christ, your since shall be pardoned, you shall be endned with his spirit, and so with communion with him and the Father, & the whole Church of God, Christ will dwell in you, & you shall dwell in him for evermore. Wherefore behave your selves accordingly with joyfulness and thanks giving. Do you now appear before the Lord: make clean your houses, & open the doors of your hearts by repentance and faith, that the Lord of hosts, the king of glory may enter in: and for ever hereafter beware of all such things as ⟨image 100⟩might displease the eyes of his Majesty. Fly from sin as from a Toad, come away from popery and all Antichristian religion, be diligent in your vocations, be diligent & earnest in prayer, hearken to the voice of God in his word with reverence, live worthily your profession. Let your light in your life so shine, that men may see your good works, and glorify your father which is in heaven. As you have been darkness, & followed the works of darkness, so now henceforth be light in the Lord, & have society with the works of light. Now hath God renue• his covenant with you, in Gods sight now are you as clean, and healed from all your sores of since. Go your ways, sin no more, lest a worse thing happen unto you. See that ⟨image 100⟩your house being new swept, be furnished with godliness and virtue, and beware of idleness, lest the devil come with seven spirits worse then himself, and so take his lodging, and then your latter end will be worse then the first.
