be_v the_o seven_o from_o adam_n here_o two_o question_n be_v to_o be_v answer_v first_o whence_o have_v jude_n this_o history_n see_v it_o be_v no_o where_o record_v in_o the_o scripture_n and_o how_o know_v he_o it_o to_o be_v enoch_n i_o answer_v two_o way_n first_o he_o either_o have_v it_o and_o learn_v it_o to_o be_v his_o by_o some_o tradition_n which_o go_v from_o hand_n to_o hand_n

tradition_n which_o be_v make_v article_n of_o faith_n &_o rule_v of_o god_n worship_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n for_o all_o such_o doctrine_n be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o prophet_n

other_o who_o be_v no_o papist_n conclude_v that_o some_o book_n of_o canonical_a scripture_n be_v perish_v and_o lose_v but_o this_o be_v untrue_a for_o than_o first_o the_o fidelity_n of_o the_o

the_o book_n of_o nathan_n gad_n idd●_n shemaiah_n and_o other_o prophet_n be_v perish_v ans._n all_o these_o as_o be_v though_o by_o the_o learned_a be_v contain_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o king_n chronicle_n and_o samuel_n ob._n this_o book_n of_o enoch_n be_v lose_v ans._n first_o it_o be_v doubt_v whether_o it_o be_v a_o book_n or_o no_o or_o go_v by_o a_o tradition_n second_o if_o it_o be_v

make_v choice_n of_o this_o testimony_n of_o enoch_n rather_o than_o some_o other_o prophet_n answ._n himself_o give_v two_o reason_n first_o 7.18_o he_o be_v the_o seven_o from_o adam_n it_o be_v therefore_o a_o ancient_a testimony_n to_o be_v receive_v and_o reverence_v for_o the_o antiquity_n but_o withal_o it_o show_v what_o be_v true_a antiquity_n namely_o when_o a_o doctrine_n of_o religion_n can_v be_v prove_v from_o some_o prophet_n or_o apostle_n for_o this_o testimony_n be_v a_o prophecy_n and_o therefore_o that_o antiquity_n which_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n challenge_v to_o her_o religion_n and_o doctrine_n be_v but_o counterfeit_n because_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o justify_v the_o main_a point_n thereof_o from_o any_o prophet_n or_o apostle_n yea_o in_o these_o wherein_o they_o dissent_v from_o we_o they_o can_v bring_v their_o proof_n and_o descent_n from_o within_o the_o first_o hundred_o year_n after_o christ._n it_o be_v then_o a_o vain_a plea_n and_o false_a pretence_n of_o they_o to_o boast_v of_o the_o antiquity_n of_o their_o religion_n the_o second_o reason_n be_v in_o the_o word_n prophesy_v for_o enoch_n speak_v not_o this_o of_o his_o

the_o learned_a physician_n can_v true_o foretell_v the_o death_n of_o the_o patient_a to_o come_v ans._n he_o do_v not_o proper_o herein_o foretell_v a_o thing_n to_o come_v for_o the_o death_n of_o the_o party_n be_v present_a in_o the_o sign_n and_o cause_n of_o it_o ob._n but_o the_o devil_n can_v foretell_v saul_n death_n 1._o sam._n 28.19_o to_o morrow_n shall_v thou_o be_v with_o i_o and_o thy_o son_n ans._n the_o devil_n can_v not_o proper_o foretell_v it_o but_o may_v see_v it_o in_o the_o cause_n and_o sign_n again_o he_o may_v speak_v so_o to_o saul_n because_o god_n have_v make_v

lord_n come_v where_o the_o apostle_n speak_v in_o the_o time_n present_a which_o be_v put_v for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v which_o form_n of_o speech_n show_v the_o certainty_n of_o christ_n come_v to_o judgement_n who_o shall_v as_o certain_o come_v as_o if_o he_o be_v now_o already_o come_v concern_v which_o certainty_n it_o may_v be_v demand_v first_o whence_o come_v this_o come_n of_o

he_o will_v judge_v the_o world_n in_o righteousness_n and_o thus_o be_v all_o other_o the_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n most_o certain_a in_o that_o they_o be_v ground_v on_o the_o unchangeable_a will_n and_o word_n of_o god_n second_o how_o or_o from_o whence_o may_v we_o know_v this_o will_n of_o god_n to_o be_v so_o certain_a ans._n from_o the_o manner_n of_o propound_v the_o doctrine_n of_o it_o wherein_o the_o evidence_n of_o the_o spirit_n plain_o appear_v say_v peremptory_o the_o lord_n come_v evident_o express_v the_o certainty_n as_o if_o it_o be_v now_o present_a and_o the_o

not_o seek_v evidence_n elsewhere_o than_o from_o itself_o not_o from_o man_n or_o the_o church_n itself_o the_o romish_a church_n confess_v it_o be_v of_o itself_o and_o in_o itself_o sufficient_o certain_a but_o not_o to_o i_o or_o thou_o except_o the_o church_n say_v so_o but_o this_o be_v a_o false_a position_n the_o scripture_n be_v certain_a both_o in_o itself_o and_o unto_o we_o and_o we_o know_v it_o so_o to_o be_v though_o never_o a_o man_n will_v acknowledge_v it_o the_o heart_n season_v with_o grace_n will_v make_v the_o mouth_n confess_v it_o second_o the_o apostle_n speak_v in_o this_o form_n he_o come_v for_o he_o will_v come_v we_o learn_v to_o set_v before_o our_o eye_n the_o come_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o judgement_n and_o to_o make_v account_n of_o every_o

of_o this_o day_n but_o some_o will_v say_v we_o can_v make_v account_n daily_o of_o it_o for_o we_o see_v it_o come_v not_o neither_o may_v we_o inquire_v into_o the_o time_n of_o it_o answ._n

1._o first_o they_o say_v jude_n call_v himself_o a_o servant_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o a_o apostle_n but_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v pen_v or_o approve_v by_o some_o apostle_n 1._o this_o hinder_v not_o but_o that_o he_o be_v one_o of_o the_o apostle_n who_o also_o call_v themselves_o seruamts_o of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o paul_n rom._n 1.1_o and_o peter_n 2._o pet._n 1.1_o second_o by_o this_o reason_n the_o epistle_n to_o the_o philip._n and_o philemon_n as_o also_o of_o james_n john_n &c._n &c._n may_v be_v reject_v three_o he_o call_v himself_o as_o much_o as_o a_o apostle_n jude_n write_v of_o such_o thing_n as_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o have_v former_o foretell_v 2._o vers_fw-la 17._o therefore_o he_o be_v no_o apostle_n jude_n live_v after_o the_o apostle_n paul_n and_o peter_n answer_n who_o with_o john_n be_v the_o last_o of_o the_o apostle_n and_o live_v after_o their_o decease_n who_o be_v the_o principal_a may_v very_o well_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o those_o thing_n they_o have_v foretell_v in_o the_o nine_o verse_n 3._o he_o bring_v in_o a_o profane_a author_n concern_v the_o strife_n and_o disputation_n between_o michael_n the_o archangel_n and_o the_o devil_n about_o moses_n body_n which_o can_v be_v find_v in_o canonical_a scripture_n as_o also_o of_o enoch_n the_o seven_o from_o adam_n out_o of_o profane_a writer_n by_o this_o reason_n answer_n neither_o shall_v the_o epistle_n of_o titus_n be_v scripture_n see_v paul_n make_v mention_n of_o the_o profane_a poet_n epimenides_n titus_n 1.12_o nor_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinth_n where_o be_v bring_v in_o the_o speech_n of_o menander_n 1._o cor._n 15.33_o nor_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n where_o aratus_n the_o poet_n be_v cite_v act_n 17.21_o this_o epistle_n be_v take_v out_o of_o saint_n peter_n from_o who_o this_o author_n have_v borrow_v both_o the_o matter_n and_o manner_n 4._o therefore_o this_o jude_n be_v no_o apostle_n but_o some_o scholar_n of_o they_o if_o this_o be_v sufficient_a to_o prove_v this_o epistle_n not_o authentical_a answer_n than_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o samuel_n the_o king_n and_o chronicle_n shall_v be_v cast_v out_o of_o the_o canon_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n which_o take_v the_o matter_n from_o civil_a chronicle_n now_o if_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o take_v matter_n out_o of_o civil_a chronicle_n why_o may_v not_o one_o scripture_n be_v take_v out_o of_o another_o we_o must_v therefore_o notwithstanding_o these_o weak_a allegation_n esteem_v this_o epistle_n to_o be_v the_o canonical_a scripture_n and_o the_o eternal_a word_n of_o god_n as_o our_o church_n and_o the_o church_n in_o all_o age_n have_v receive_v it_o and_o now_o in_o the_o second_o place_n see_v how_o we_o may_v come_v to_o be_v resolve_v that_o it_o be_v so_o to_o be_v allow_v 2._o which_o we_o may_v in_o this_o resemblance_n a_o indenture_n between_o man_n and_o man_n be_v know_v to_o be_v sufficient_a two_o way_n first_o by_o the_o matter_n and_o content_n therein_o which_o plain_o show_v a_o act_n pass_v and_o do_v second_o by_o add_v and_o annex_v thereunto_o certain_a outward_a sign_n and_o testimony_n as_o the_o hand_n and_o seal_n of_o the_o party_n the_o hand_n and_o name_n of_o the_o witness_n corroborate_n and_o strengthen_v the_o same_o the_o first_o be_v good_a in_o itself_o though_o not_o so_o confirm_v to_o the_o party_n without_o the_o second_o but_o the_o second_o be_v nothing_o without_o the_o first_o but_o if_o both_o th●se_a shall_v concur_v and_o be_v specify_v in_o the_o indenture_n than_o it_o be_v absolute_o authentical_a both_o in_o itself_o and_o unto_o the_o party_n if_o this_o be_v apply_v to_o the_o scripture_n it_o shall_v be_v apparent_a to_o be_v no_o less_o ratify_v than_o such_o a_o indenture_n for_o first_o consider_v but_o the_o content_n and_o matter_n itself_o of_o it_o it_o will_v speak_v the_o certainty_n and_o truth_n of_o it_o read_v over_o the_o epistle_n you_o shall_v find_v the_o whole_a matter_n agree_v upon_o by_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n and_o for_o the_o testimony_n the_o catholic_a and_o common_a consent_n of_o the_o church_n or_o great_a part_n since_o the_o apostle_n day_n have_v set_v to_o her_o hand_n and_o seal_v that_o it_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n no_o less_o assure_v than_o other_o book_n of_o the_o canon_n which_o assent_n of_o the_o church_n though_o it_o can_v make_v we_o yet_o may_v move_v we_o accord_o to_o entertain_v it_o beside_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o end_n as_o also_o the_o effect_n of_o this_o scripture_n which_o be_v the_o same_o with_o any_o part_n of_o the_o canonical_a we_o can_v but_o confess_v that_o it_o be_v the_o holy_a and_o sacred_a truth_n of_o god_n all_o of_o it_o conspire_v with_o all_o the_o other_o to_o the_o advance_v of_o god_n glory_n and_o further_a of_o man_n salvation_n so_o much_o of_o the_o authority_n of_o this_o epistle_n the_o second_o
