against_o the_o mighty_a it_o be_v nothing_o for_o a_o man_n to_o say_v i_o do_v not_o such_o a_o thing_n and_o i_o be_v loath_a to_o put_v my_o finger_n in_o the_o fire_n before_o i_o be_v call_v i_o tell_v thou_o thou_o be_v call_v to_o it_o such_o a_o man_n such_o a_o minister_n that_o see_v the_o gospel_n lie_v at_o the_o stake_n and_o have_v not_o a_o heart_n to_o grieve_v for_o it_o and_o a_o hand_n to_o succour_v it_o he_o be_v guilty_a thereof_o the_o lord_n will_v spew_v such_o new●ets_n out_o of_o hi●_n mouth_n 3.16_o revel_v 3.16_o i_o will_v thou_o be_v either_o hot_a or_o cold_a

and_o show_v himself_o a_o friend_n to_o christ_n in_o profession_n he_o prove_v in_o conclusion_n a_o most_o bitter_a enemy_n saul_n be_v just_o such_o a_o fawn_a hypocrite_n god_n command_v he_o to_o go_v against_o the_o amalekite_n 15.3_o 1_o sam._n 15.3_o and_o destroy_v all_o now_o saul_n pretend_v great_a matter_n what_o he_o will_v do_v and_o what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o the_o lord_n and_o when_o samuel_n come_v to_o meet_v he_o saul_n say_v bless_a be_v thou_o of_o the_o lord_n i_o have_v perform_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v i_o be_o glad_a

have_v thou_o do_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n no_o though_o i_o be_v silent_a yet_o the_o low_v of_o ox_n and_o the_o bleat_a of_o sheep_n can_v testify_v that_o saul_n be_v a_o hypocrite_n

little_a to_o discover_v divers_a other_o sort_n of_o hypocrite_n among_o we_o and_o they_o may_v be_v rank_v into_o four_o sort_n first_o there_o be_v a_o whine_a hypocrite_n second_o the_o wrangle_a hypocrite_n three_o the_o glorious_a hypocrite_n and_o fourthly_a the_o presumptuous_a hypocrite_n i_o shall_v hardly_o peruse_v any_o of_o these_o at_o this_o time_n i_o will_v only_o touch_v the_o second_o a_o little_a which_o i_o think_v to_o be_v seasonable_a and_o that_o be_v the_o wrangle_a hypocrite_n there_o be_v a_o company_n of_o wretched_a man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o fawn_n and_o flatter_v and_o pretend_v to_o do_v great_a kindness_n and_o they_o profess_v they_o be_v at_o your_o command_n to_o serve_v you_o to_o do_v what_o you_o will_v and_o perform_v what_o you_o please_v but_o try_v they_o and_o prove_v they_o and_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o otherwise_o they_o will_v not_o open_o profess_v that_o they_o will_v not_o do_v the_o thing_n but_o when_o all_o come_v to_o all_o they_o pretend_v these_o and_o these_o inconvenience_n will_v follow_v if_o they_o shall_v do_v it_o they_o will_v not_o professe_o say_v they_o will_v not_o do_v the_o kindness_n but_o they_o will_v make_v a_o plea_n that_o they_o ought_v not_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o do_v it_o and_o it_o be_v against_o reason_n that_o you_o shall_v require_v it_o so_o these_o hypocrite_n they_o resolve_v to_o live_v no_o long_o they_o resolve_v that_o they_o will_v not_o enjoy_v any_o thing_n in_o this_o world_n they_o will_v not_o be_v any_o thing_n or_o do_v any_o thing_n but_o only_o so_o far_o as_o the_o lord_n jesus_n may_v be_v honour_v and_o his_o gospel_n promote_v if_o they_o think_v they_o shall_v promote_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n more_o another_o way_n than_o this_o they_o will_v not_o undertake_v it_o but_o when_o it_o come_v to_o this_o pass_n that_o a_o man_n must_v leave_v his_o honour_n and_o live_n and_o profit_n which_o so_o near_o concern_v he_o for_o christ_n than_o his_o trick_n be_v this_o he_o do_v not_o profess_v ●y_a say_v i_o will_v have_v pleasure_n or_o profit_n and_o not_o christ_n but_o he_o will_v wrangle_v with_o christ_n and_o stand_v upon_o term_n with_o god_n and_o say_v he_o ought_v not_o to_o do_v this_o it_o be_v not_o fit_a he_o shall_v do_v it_o there_o be_v no_o command_n for_o the_o thing_n belove_a it_o be_v admirable_a to_o observe_v the_o spirit_n of_o these_o man_n when_o the_o word_n come_v clear_a to_o they_o when_o the_o duty_n be_v reveal_v and_o require_v at_o their_o hand_n oh_o how_o they_o will_v search_v far_o and_o near_o to_o invent_v argument_n to_o make_v it_o no_o duty_n and_o turn_v over_o all_o book_n and_o as_o he_o speak_v witty_o rake_v the_o devil_n skull_n that_o so_o they_o may_v have_v some_o shift_v not_o to_o do_v that_o which_o they_o ought_v it_o be_v a_o pretty_a trick_n to_o be_v observe_v among_o great_a man_n that_o follow_v the_o fashion_n first_o they_o resolve_v to_o conform_v themselves_o to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n reveal_v but_o when_o the_o fashion_n come_v up_o they_o will_v plead_v for_o that_o too_o and_o now_o the_o question_n be_v not_o what_o they_o must_v do_v but_o what_o they_o will_v do_v for_o all_o fashion_n must_v be_v lawful_a because_o they_o be_v resolve_v to_o use_v they_o i_o will_v propound_v one_o truth_n only_o to_o these_o man_n observe_v it_o in_o thy_o own_o soul_n do_v not_o think_v to_o wrangle_v out_o the_o truth_n and_o to_o quarrel_v with_o the_o gospel_n or_o to_o make_v any_o pretence_n against_o that_o way_n which_o god_n have_v chalk_v out_o before_o thou_o and_o against_o any_o duty_n god_n command_v thou_o but_o be_v thou_o in_o good_a earnest_n content_a that_o that_o shall_v be_v true_a which_o god_n will_v have_v to_o be_v true_a be_v thou_o will_v those_o thing_n shall_v be_v naught_o which_o the_o word_n of_o god_n say_v be_v naught_o man_n may_v talk_v what_o they_o will_v but_o they_o have_v their_o

they_o will_v not_o leave_v but_o plead_v for_o it_o that_o their_o conscience_n may_v not_o fly_v in_o their_o face_n and_o that_o they_o may_v not_o go_v professe_o against_o the_o evidence_n of_o the_o truth_n belove_a these_o man_n give_v no_o contentment_n to_o christ_n but_o to_o their_o own_o corrupt_a heart_n one_o give_v content_a to_o the_o fashion_n and_o wear_v that_o another_z
