<p n="5">While under Sentence, I instructed them from Mat. 16. 24. Then said Jesus unto his Disciples, If any Man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his Cross and follow me. That troubles and afflictions were the common lot of Mankind, and therefore whatever cross dispensations we meet with; it is our Duty willingly to submit, since they are a cup dispenc'd to us by our Father; our Heavenly Father, who knows best what is good for us, who afflicteth no Man willingly, nor grieveth the Children of Men. I show'd them that Christ, the Captain of our profession, the Author and finisher of our Faith, was a Man acquainted with griefs, and that we hid, as it were, our Faces from him; and that in conformity unto him, all those who live Godly in Christ Jesus must suffer persecution: i. e. as he suffer'd patiently for our sake having no Sin of his own, so we ought patiently to endure all the afflictions which are brought upon us, as a just chastisement for our Sins, still acknowledging, that the Punishment of our Iniquity in this Life, is infinitely less than what we have deserv'd, and therefore why should a living Man complain, a Man for the Punishment of his Sins? And as all Men are are thus liable to manifold afflictions, for, Man that is Born of a Woman, is of few Days, and full of trouble: so much more are those unfortunate People, who by their enormous crimes have expos'd themselves to the penalty of the Laws, and become unworthy of breathing any longer in the common Air, but must submit to the Punishments inflicted upon them, as proceeding from a just and good God, who, by thus humbling them, intended their special advantage to reclaim them from Sin, and make them enamour'd with the ways of Piety and Virtue, that although their Bodies may Perish, yet their Souls may be saved in the great Day of the Lord Jesus. I exhorted them to an ample Confession of their Sins, as the way to die with Peace of Conscience, and in the Peace of the Church, as being an evidence of their Repentance, and the main reparation they could make for the injuries they had done to Mankind. I inform'd them, how they had been early dedicated to God in Baptism, to deny themselves to the World, the Flesh and the Devil, and that having vow'd and sworn Fidelity and all due obedience to Almighty God, and the Laws or Precepts of Jesus Christ, yet having broken their Baptismal Vows in many respects, and having wholly given themselves up to the Service of Sin and Satan, therefore, God had now rejected and given them up to their own Hearts lusts, and suffer'd them to fall into those Notorious Capital Crimes, which brought them to so much Shame and Sorrow.</p>
