this_o be_v of_o who_o christ_n and_o peter_n be_v speak_v of_o in_o the_o word_n precede_v even_o that_o same_o disciple_n which_o testify_v of_o these_o thing_n and_o write_v these_o thing_n and_o so_o tell_v that_o it_o w●s_v he_o that_o witness_v and_o write_v these_o thing_n he_o close_v up_o his_o euangel_n and_o put_v his_o seal_n to_o it_o but_o the_o word_n be_v to_o be_v mark_v john_n say_v he_o testify_v these_o thing_n mean_v by_o word_n and_o then_o again_o he_o write_v the_o same_o thing_n so_o he_o bear_v witness_v of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n both_o by_o word_n and_o writing_n whereof_o we_o have_v to_o learn_v that_o we_o shall_v strive_v all_o manner_n of_o way_n to_o bear_v witness_n unto_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n by_o word_n by_o write_v by_o confession_n of_o our_o mouth_n &_o if_o need_n require_v by_o the_o shed_n of_o our_o blood_n also_o for_o the_o more_o testimony_n be_v give_v to_o the_o truth_n the_o great_a glory_n redound_v to_o god_n again_o we_o see_v john_n when_o he_o have_v end_v the_o history_n of_o the_o gospel_n he_o affix_n and_o put_v to_o his_o seal_n to_o it_o we_o shall_v follow_v this_o example_n for_o after_o we_o have_v preach_v christ_n we_o shall_v be_v ready_a to_o seal_v it_o if_o it_o be_v with_o our_o blood_n look_v to_o paul_n after_o he_o have_v preach_v christ_n to_o the_o philippian_n and_o have_v labour_v to_o make_v they_o to_o believe_v he_o say_v to_o they_o he_o will_v rejoice_v and_o be_v glad_a with_o they_o although_o he_o be_v offer_v up_o upon_o the_o sacrifice_n and_o service_n of_o their_o faith_n that_o be_v he_o will_v be_v content_a to_o seal_v up_o the_o gospel_n which_o he_o have_v preach_v to_o they_o by_o his_o death_n that_o their_o faith_n may_v be_v the_o more_o confirm_v now_o in_o the_o word_n follow_v he_o set_v down_o the_o cause_n which_o move_v he_o to_o put_v to_o his_o seal_n to_o his_o gospel_n for_o say_v he_o we_o know_v that_o his_o testimony_n be_v true_a so_o the_o cause_n of_o his_o seal_n of_o his_o gospel_n be_v the_o full_a persuasion_n and_o assurance_n which_o he_o have_v of_o the_o truth_n and_o indeed_o he_o only_a who_o have_v full_a assurance_n in_o his_o heart_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o these_o thing_n that_o he_o teach_v can_v confident_o put_v his_o seal_n to_o his_o preach_n and_o therefore_o a_o minister_n shall_v endevoure_v to_o have_v full_a persuasion_n in_o his_o heart_n that_o he_o may_v speak_v with_o liberty_n and_o great_a assurance_n as_o paul_n speak_v of_o himself_o 1._o thess_n 1.5_o and_o that_o if_o need_v require_v he_o may_v seal_v the_o gospel_n with_o his_o own_o blood_n now_o to_o come_v to_o the_o last_o verse_n and_o to_o end_v short_o the_o apostle_n meet_v a_o question_n that_o some_o curious_a man_n may_v have_v demand_v they_o may_v have_v ask_v be_v all_o the_o thing_n which_o christ_n do_v and_o the_o wonder_n which_o he_o wrought_v set_v down_o in_o write_v by_o thou_o to_o this_o he_o answer_v that_o all_o thing_n which_o jesus_n do_v be_v not_o write_v for_o say_v he_o there_o be_v many_o other_o thing_n which_o jesus_n do_v the_o which_o if_o they_o be_v write_v every_o one_o i_o suppose_v the_o world_n can_v not_o contain_v the_o book_n that_o shall_v be_v write_v and_o so_o he_o write_v not_o all_o thing_n which_o christ_n do_v neither_o be_v he_o of_o purpose_n to_o write_v they_o neither_o be_v he_o able_a to_o write_v they_o all_o for_o if_o he_o have_v write_v they_o all_o the_o whole_a world_n can_v not_o have_v contain_v the_o book_n that_o shall_v have_v be_v write_v upon_o this_o question_n we_o may_v perceive_v how_o curious_a the_o brain_n of_o man_n be_v and_o how_o immoderate_a his_o engine_n and_o appetite_n be_v there_o be_v nothing_o can_v content_v it_o it_o can_v be_v content_v with_o all_o thing_n which_o be_v write_v in_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n with_o all_o thing_n which_o be_v write_v by_o the_o prophet_n the_o evangelist_n and_o apostle_n but_o it_o be_v ever_o seek_v for_o more_o seek_v for_o new_a revelation_n new_a miracle_n and_o such_o other_o thing_n the_o devil_n know_v well_o enough_o this_o to_o be_v our_o nature_n and_o therefore_o he_o propine_n to_o the_o world_n a_o huge_a multitude_n of_o lie_n vanity_n &_o fable_n &_o especial_o to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o antichrist_n to_o the_o pope_n and_o his_o shaveling_n who_o can_v content_v themselves_o with_o the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n the_o old_a &_o new_a testament_n but_o gripe_v greedy_o to_o unwritten_a verity_n as_o they_o call_v they_o to_o tradition_n which_o false_o they_o call_v divine_a apostolic_a ecclesiastic_a so_o that_o all_o man_n may_v perceive_v that_o the_o popish_a religion_n serve_v not_o so_o much_o to_o work_v faith_n and_o bring_v salvation_n to_o man_n as_o to_o satisfy_v their_o curiosity_n and_o immoderate_a appetite_n let_v man_n take_v pleasure_n in_o that_o religion_n as_o they_o will_v they_o may_v well_o get_v their_o foolish_a appetit_fw-la please_v &_o satisfy_v but_o they_o will_v never_o get_v true_a faith_n nor_o salvation_n by_o it_o then_o mark_v of_o john_n answer_n to_o this_o question_n that_o man_n shall_v keep_v a_o measure_n in_o speak_v and_o write_v these_o thing_n which_o appertain_v to_o religion_n and_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n this_o do_v they_o who_o the_o lord_n of_o old_a employ_v to_o be_v penne-man_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n this_o do_v the_o prophet_n this_o do_v the_o apostle_n this_o do_v the_o evangelist_n for_o in_o their_o write_v they_o respect_v two_o thing_n first_o the_o infinite_a and_o incomprehensible_a majesty_n of_o god_n and_o the_o unmeasurable_a and_o unspeakable_a greatness_n and_o multitude_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o may_v have_v be_v write_v of_o that_o infinite_a and_o most_o glorious_a majesty_n of_o god_n and_o of_o jesus_n christ_n his_o son_n next_o they_o respect_v the_o mean_a measure_n of_o man_n understanding_n and_o likewise_o of_o his_o faith_n which_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o all_o these_o thing_n which_o may_v be_v write_v therefore_o by_o the_o lord_n direction_n in_o their_o write_v they_o apply_v themselves_o to_o our_o capacity_n &_o endeavour_v to_o set_v down_o these_o thing_n which_o y_o e_z spirit_n of_o god_n thought_n may_v sufficient_o serve_v for_o our_o faith_n &_o salvation_n for_o if_o all_o thing_n have_v be_v write_v concern_v that_o infinite_a &_o incomprehensible_a majesty_n our_o memory_n have_v be_v overwhelm_v our_o understanding_n confound_v &_o our_o faith_n overthrow_v lamentable_a experience_n let_v we_o see_v this_o day_n that_o the_o papist_n by_o their_o unwritten_a verity_n &_o infinite_a tradition_n overwhelm_v the_o world_n &_o subvert_v the_o faith_n of_o man_n now_o last_o the_o form_n of_o speech_n which_o the_o evangelist_n use_v will_v be_v consider_v when_o he_o say_v if_o all_o thing_n be_v write_v the_o world_n can_v not_o contain_v the_o book_n that_o shall_v be_v write_v man_n will_v think_v that_o this_o speech_n be_v hyperbolicke_a &_o that_o the_o speech_n far_o exceed_v the_o matter_n itself_o but_o indeed_o it_o be_v not_o so_o but_o rather_o in_o this_o form_n of_o speech_n the_o holy_a spirit_n submit_v himself_o to_o our_o infirmity_n &_o apply_v himself_o to_o our_o weak_a capacity_n &_o set_v down_o a_o infinite_a &_o incomprehensible_a matter_n in_o a_o form_n of_o speak_v which_o we_o may_v easy_o understand_v for_o when_o john_n speak_v this_o he_o consider_v &_o behold_v that_o incomprehensible_a &_o infinite_a deepness_n of_o that_o glorious_a majesty_n which_o dwell_v in_o christ_n bodily_a and_o which_o manifest_v itself_o in_o his_o work_n &_o miracle_n which_o be_v able_a not_o only_o to_o swallow_v up_o all_o the_o sense_n and_o cogitation_n of_o all_o man_n but_o also_o the_o heaven_n &_o the_o earth_n and_o when_o he_o endevour_v in_o some_o measure_n to_o express_v that_o incomprehensible_a highness_n after_o such_o a_o speech_n &_o in_o such_o term_n as_o we_o may_v understand_v he_o say_v the_o world_n can_v not_o contain_v the_o book_n that_o shall_v be_v write_v of_o christ_n &_o his_o work_n if_o they_o be_v all_o write_v which_o speech_n import_v that_o no_o live_a creature_n be_v able_a sufficient_o to_o set_v out_o &_o by_o word_n to_o express_v that_o glorious_a majesty_n and_o his_o glorious_a wotk_n and_o miracle_n that_o he_o wrought_v according_a as_o their_o dignity_n and_o excellency_n require_v for_o the_o whole_a world_n be_v not_o able_a to_o comprehend_v that_o infinite_a majesty_n for_o this_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v ignorant_a of_o that_o this_o whole_a scripture_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n write_v by_o the_o prophet_n
well_o the_o blood_n from_o the_o water_n and_o the_o water_n from_o the_o blood_n i_o see_v here_o something_o above_o nature_n and_o i_o be_o compel_v to_o think_v and_o say_v that_o there_o be_v something_o here_o extraordinary_a as_o all_o thing_n that_o fall_v out_o in_o the_o death_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v extraordinary_a and_o show_v he_o to_o be_v more_o and_o great_a than_o any_o common_a man_n that_o ever_o die_v the_o give_v up_o of_o the_o ghost_n with_o a_o loud_a voice_n show_v that_o he_o be_v more_o than_o a_o man_n for_o brethren_n to_o leave_v the_o speak_n of_o this_o matter_n let_v we_o see_v what_o this_o blood_n &_o this_o water_n mean_v and_o to_o what_o use_v the_o gush_v out_o of_o the_o blood_n &_o the_o water_n serve_v for_o no_o question_n the_o gush_a out_o of_o the_o blood_n and_o the_o water_n out_o of_o the_o wound_n testify_v that_o the_o lord_n be_v very_o dead_a what_o man_n will_v live_v when_o his_o heart_n blood_n be_v shed_v the_o heart_n be_v the_o most_o vital_a part_n of_o the_o body_n it_o be_v the_o seat_n of_o the_o life_n perseus_n it_o and_o there_o be_v no_o life_n for_o the_o man_n so_o this_o effusion_n of_o the_o blood_n &_o water_n testify_v that_o the_o lord_n be_v dead_a and_o there_o be_v no_o life_n in_o he_o yet_o brethren_n this_o blood_n &_o this_o water_n mean_v more_o than_o this_o they_o testify_v of_o the_o force_n of_o that_o death_n they_o testify_v not_o of_o a_o death_n only_o but_o of_o a_o powerful_a death_n no_o man_n death_n be_v ever_o so_o powerful_a as_o the_o death_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n all_o the_o emperor_n in_o the_o world_n have_v no_o such_o power_n in_o their_o death_n as_o christ_n have_v it_o testify_v of_o a_o power_n to_o purge_v the_o sin_n of_o man_n what_o emperor_n blood_n ransom_v sinful_a man_n or_o can_v purge_v he_o from_o his_o sin_n what_o water_n come_v there_o ever_o from_o a_o emperor_n heart_n which_o wash_v away_o the_o corruption_n of_o thy_o nature_n now_o to_o speak_v it_o in_o a_o word_n this_o blood_n and_o this_o water_n testify_v of_o a_o power_n that_o flow_v from_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o wash_n of_o our_o foul_a nature_n with_o the_o blood_n brack_n out_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o with_o the_o water_n burst_v out_o regeneration_n yet_o to_o make_v this_o plain_a by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o blood_n of_o god_n god_n and_o man_n in_o one_o we_o be_v ransom_v from_o death_n and_o hell_n the_o guiltiness_n of_o all_o our_o sin_n be_v take_v away_o the_o punishment_n with_o the_o guilt_n be_v take_v away_o hell_n be_v take_v away_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n that_o require_v our_o blood_n be_v satisfy_v by_o that_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o wrath_n that_o will_v have_v suck_v up_o thy_o blood_n it_o will_v not_o have_v leave_v one_o drop_n of_o thy_o blood_n unsucked_a and_o that_o wrath_n which_o can_v be_v satiate_a without_o blood_n be_v satiate_v by_o the_o only_a blood_n of_o christ_n mark_v well_o it_o be_v not_o blood_n only_o that_o come_v out_o of_o his_o side_n but_o it_o be_v blood_n and_o water_n it_o be_v a_o watery_a blood_n john_n who_o stand_v by_o leave_v this_o in_o register_n that_o sensible_o in_o the_o blood_n he_o perceive_v water_n to_o testify_v that_o by_o that_o blood_n of_o jesus_n we_o obtain_v not_o only_a remission_n of_o our_o sin_n but_o by_o this_o same_o blood_n the_o foulness_n and_o uncleanness_n of_o our_o nature_n be_v washen_v away_o for_o water_n serve_v to_o wash_v away_o filthiness_n this_o same_o john_n in_o his_o first_o epistle_n chap._n 5._o vers_fw-la 6._o say_v that_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n by_o water_n mean_v the_o water_n which_o gush_v out_o of_o his_o side_n john_n can_v never_o forget_v this_o sight_n he_o come_v by_o water_n to_o wash_v away_o this_o inherent_a corruption_n which_o be_v in_o we_o for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o

and_o blood_n not_o by_o water_n only_o but_o by_o water_n and_o blood_n mean_v this_o blood_n be_v watery_a and_o this_o water_n be_v bloody_a not_o only_o to_o wash_v away_o the_o inherent_a

that_o punishment_n and_o wrath_n that_o be_v due_a to_o we_o in_o that_o same_o chapter_n john_n point_n out_o the_o three_o witness_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o heaven_n and_o three_o witness_n of_o

no_o better_a assurance_n that_o the_o lord_n be_v come_v than_o when_o we_o feel_v that_o effectual_a work_n of_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o purgation_n of_o they_o by_o the_o
