in_o a_o evell_a case_n and_o yet_o do_v not_o desire_v that_o thou_o may_v feel_v nothing_o but_o this_o cry_n of_o the_o spirit_n thou_o must_v feel_v also_o a_o other_o terrible_a cry_n make_v whereby_o thou_o may_v be_v provoke_v and_o urge_v to_o this_o cry_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o happen_v to_o all_o the_o saint_n that_o be_v the_o cry_n of_o sin_n which_o call_v most_o strong_o and_o instant_o unto_o desperation_n but_o this_o cry_n must_v be_v overcome_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n by_o godly_a call_n upon_o the_o father_n and_o cry_v for_o his_o grace_n that_o the_o trust_n and_o confidence_n of_o grace_n may_v become_v great_a than_o desperation_n spirit_n the_o cry_n of_o the_o spirit_n wherefore_o this_o cry_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o be_v with_o all_o our_o heart_n touch_v with_o a_o very_a strong_a firm_a and_o unmoveable_a trust_n of_o most_o dear_a son_n towards_o god_n as_o our_o most_o tender_a and_o favourable_a father_n hereby_o we_o may_v see_v how_o far_o a_o christian_a life_n exceed_v nature_n which_o can_v do_v nothing_o less_o than_o trust_v so_o in_o god_n christ_n a_o christian_a life_n far_o exceed_v nature_n the_o cry_n of_o they_o which_o trust_v in_o their_o own_o work_n and_o not_o in_o christ_n and_o call_v upon_o he_o as_o a_o father_n but_o be_v always_o afraid_a and_o utter_v a_o voice_n which_o be_v a_o witness_n of_o exceed_a fear_n woe_n be_v i_o how_o cruel_a and_o untolerable_a a_o judge_n be_v thou_o o_o god_n how_o heavy_a be_v thy_o judgement_n unto_o i_o as_o cain_n say_v gen._n 4_o my_o iniquity_n be_v more_o than_o that_o it_o may_v be_v forgive_v thou_o have_v cast_v i_o out_o this_o day_n from_o the_o upper_a face_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o from_o thy_o face_n shall_v i_o be_v hide_v yea_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o every_o one_o that_o find_v i_o shall_v slay_v i_o etc._n etc._n this_o be_v a_o terrible_a and_o dreadful_a cry_n which_o be_v necessary_o hear_v of_o all_o such_o as_o be_v of_o cain_n brood_n forasmuch_o as_o they_o trust_v to_o themselves_o and_o their_o own_o work_n and_o put_v not_o their_o trust_n in_o the_o son_n of_o god_n neither_o be_v and_o consider_v that_o he_o be_v send_v of_o the_o father_n make_v of_o a_o woman_n make_v under_o the_o law_n much_o less_o that_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v do_v for_o their_o salvation_n they_o be_v continual_o torment_v in_o their_o own_o work_n the_o miserable_a man_n do_v in_o vain_a go_v about_o by_o they_o to_o help_v themselves_o and_o to_o obtain_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o while_o their_o ungodliness_n be_v not_o herewith_o content_a it_o begin_v to_o persecute_v even_o the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o it_o be_v always_o wont_a to_o do_v yea_o at_o the_o last_o they_o grow_v unto_o such_o cruelty_n that_o after_o the_o example_n of_o their_o father_n cain_n they_o can_v not_o rest_v until_o they_o slay_v their_o righteous_a brother_n abel_n in_o who_o they_o do_v also_o kill_v unto_o themselves_o christ_n then_o the_o blood_n of_o righteous_a abel_n cry_v unto_o heaven_n against_o unrighteous_a cain_n neither_o cease_v it_o to_o cry_v until_o the_o lord_n have_v revenge_v it_o he_o ask_v those_o cain_n of_o their_o brother_n abel_n yea_o of_o christ_n but_o they_o deny_v all_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n which_o labour_v not_o to_o become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o heir_n by_o christ_n but_o to_o become_v righteous_a by_o their_o own_o work_n in_o the_o mean_a season_n the_o blood_n of_o christ_n continual_o cry_v out_o against_o they_o even_o nothing_o but_o punishment_n and_o vengeance_n when_o as_o for_o the_o elect_a it_o cry_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n for_o nothing_o but_o grace_n &_o reconciliation_n the_o apostle_n use_v here_o a_o sirian_a and_o a_o greek_a word_n say_v abba_n pater_fw-la for_o this_o word_n abba_n in_o the_o syrian_a tongue_n signify_v a_o father_n by_o which_o name_n at_o this_o day_n the_o chief_a of_o monastery_n be_v wont_a to_o be_v call_v and_o by_o the_o same_o name_n heremites_n in_o time_n past_o be_v holy_a man_n do_v call_v their_o precedent_n at_o the_o last_o by_o use_v it_o be_v also_o make_v a_o latin_a word_n wherefore_o that_o which_o paul_n say_v be_v as_o much_o as_o father_n father_n or_o if_o thou_o have_v rather_o as_o my_o father_n father_n why_o the_o apostle_n double_v the_o word_n father_n but_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o the_o apostle_n do_v double_a the_o word_n father_n that_o be_v the_o cry_n of_o the_o spirit_n i_o will_v by_o your_o leave_n bring_v forth_o my_o judgement_n and_o opinion_n hereof_o first_o i_o think_v that_o he_o will_v hereby_o show_v the_o force_n and_o strain_n of_o this_o holy_a cry_n for_o when_o as_o we_o call_v any_o with_o great_a affection_n &_o through_o no_o small_a necessity_n we_o be_v wont_v eftsoon_o to_o double_v his_o name_n now_o because_o that_o sin_n and_o cain_n do_v always_o go_v about_o with_o desperation_n to_o stop_v this_o cry_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o father_n it_o be_v need_v sure_o to_o cry_v most_o strong_o and_o with_o a_o voice_n both_o double_v and_o exceed_o strain_a forth_o that_o be_v the_o trust_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o father_n ought_v to_o be_v most_o strong_a and_o not_o able_a to_o be_v overcome_v again_o such_o be_v the_o manner_n of_o the_o scripture_n to_o witness_v the_o certainty_n of_o a_o thing_n sometime_o to_o double_a or_o iterate_v the_o word_n as_o joseph_n do_v to_o pharaoh_n gen._n 41._o so_o here_o also_o the_o spirit_n twice_o call_v upon_o the_o father_n whereby_o it_o may_v show_v the_o certainty_n of_o his_o fatherly_a favour_n and_o grace_n for_o the_o trust_n hereof_o aught_o to_o be_v no_o less_o certain_a then_o great_a and_o unmoveable_a final_o it_o be_v meet_v also_o to_o persevere_v which_o again_o this_o double_n of_o the_o name_n of_o father_n do_v note_n unto_o us._n for_o as_o soon_o as_o we_o begin_v to_o call_v god_n father_n satan_n with_o all_o his_o band_n move_v war_n against_o we_o and_o omit_v no_o mean_n to_o wrest_v from_o we_o this_o trust_n of_o son_n towards_o god_n our_o father_n wherefore_o other_o father_n must_v be_v diligent_o double_v that_o be_v our_o trust_n and_o confidence_n must_v be_v confirm_v neither_o must_v we_o ever_o cease_v from_o call_v upon_o this_o father_n but_o must_v most_o earnest_o continue_v in_o this_o cry_n of_o the_o spirit_n whereby_o we_o may_v obtain_v a_o certain_a sure_a experience_n of_o his_o fatherly_a goodness_n by_o which_o our_o trust_n in_o he_o may_v be_v make_v most_o certain_a and_o safe_a and_o perhaps_o paul_n have_v respect_n hereunto_o when_o he_o first_o set_v down_o abba_n which_o be_v a_o word_n strange_a to_o they_o to_o who_o he_o write_v after_o add_v pater_n that_o be_v father_n a_o familiar_a word_n and_o of_o their_o own_o language_n mean_v to_o signify_v hereby_o that_o the_o begin_n of_o so_o great_a trust_n in_o god_n be_v unaccustomed_a and_o even_o strange_a unto_o man_n but_o that_o when_o the_o mind_n have_v a_o while_n exercise_v it_o and_o continue_v in_o it_o although_o assail_v with_o tentation_n it_o become_v even_o familiar_a and_o almost_o natural_a that_o we_o now_o enjoy_v god_n as_o a_o domestical_a father_n and_o do_v in_o every_o thing_n most_o confident_o call_v upon_o he_o verse_n 7._o wherefore_o now_o thou_o be_v not_o a_o servant_n but_o a_o son_n if_o thou_o be_v a_o son_n thou_o be_v also_o a_o heir_n of_o god_n through_o christ_n now_o say_v he_o that_o be_v after_o the_o come_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o son_n after_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n thou_o be_v not_o a_o servant_n for_o as_o it_o be_v say_v a_o son_n and_o a_o servant_n be_v so_o contrary_a one_o to_o a_o other_o that_o the_o same_o man_n can_v not_o be_v both_o a_o son_n and_o a_o servant_n work_n a_o son_n and_o a_o servant_n do_v great_o differ_v we_o can_v not_o obtain_v salvation_n by_o work_n a_o son_n be_v free_a and_o willing_a a_o servant_n be_v compel_v and_o unwilling_a a_o son_n live_v and_o rest_v in_o faith_n a_o servant_n in_o work_n and_o so_o by_o this_o place_n also_o it_o appear_v that_o we_o can_v obtain_v no_o salvation_n of_o god_n by_o work_n but_o before_o thou_o work_v that_o which_o be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o thou_o have_v receive_v of_o he_o and_o possess_v salvation_n and_o all_o thing_n that_o thereupon_o work_n may_v free_o flow_v forth_o to_o the_o honour_n of_o so_o gracious_a a_o father_n and_o to_o the_o profit_n of_o thy_o neighbour_n without_o any_o fear_n of_o punishment_n or_o look_v for_o reward_n this_o that_o which_o paul_n
