learn_v not_o to_o be_v over_o effeminate_a and_o that_o when_o it_o shall_v please_v the_o lord_n to_o exercise_v we_o in_o what_o sect_n soever_o to_o be_v tractable_a to_o be_v lead_v to_o ●im_v and_o to_o have_v our_o affection_n so_o tame_v as_o that_o god_n only_o be_v m●ister_n over_o they_o to_o rule_v they_o ●nd_v to_o covenant_n with_o we_o as_o please_v himself_o thus_o we_o see_v what_o it_o be_v that_o we_o be_v here_o to_o learn_v from_o this_o place_n and_o so_o whensoever_o we_o have_v endure_v any_o temptation_n or_o have_v sustain_v any_o combat_n &_o that_o god_n soon_o afrer_n tri_v we_o let_v we_o not_o think_v it_o any_o whit_n strange_a for_o we_o serve_v he_o not_o with_o this_o condition_n that_o after_o he_o have_v rough_o handle_v we_o for_o a_o day_n o●_n a_o year_n we_o may_v by_o and_o by_o be_v discharge_v and_o so_o crave_v a_o paspot_n but_o contrariwise_o to_o harden_v we_o because_o god_n cease_v not_o continual_o to_o send_v such_o proof_n to_o try_v our_o faith_n withal_o but_o the_o s●me_n shall_v be_v i_o say_v as_o a_o habit_n unto_o we_o because_o we_o see_v that_o a_o old_a beat_a soldier_n can_v abide_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o pain_n than_o a_o young_a fresh_a water_n soldier_n as_o we_o say_v for_o a_o young_a novice_n know_v not_o what_o it_o mean_v ●he_n will_v be_v weary_a with_o one_o night_n watch_n he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o abide_v either_o cold_a or_o heat_n not_o able_a to_o away_o with_o skirmish_v nor_o to_o be_v always_o in_o watch_n and_o ward_n but_o he_o that_o be_v long_o use_v hereunto_o shall_v be_v far_o betterable_a to_o endure_v these_o thing_n even_o so_o must_v it_o fare_v with_o we_o that_o when_o the_o lord_n shall_v have_v exercise_v we_o every_o manner_n of_o way_n we_o shall_v be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o able_a and_o ready_a the_o better_a and_o long_o to_o continue_v and_o although_o it_o shall_v seem_v to_o we_o that_o god_n deal_v very_o severe_o with_o we_o in_o lay_v too_o great_a load_n upon_o we_o yet_o let_v not_o we_o think_v our_o case_n to_o be_v strange_a and_o why_o so_o because_o we_o see_v here_o a_o pattern_n thereof_o in_o our_o father_n abraham_n unto_o who_o we_o must_v be_v configure_v now_o as_o concern_v this_o word_n tempt_v we_o know_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o it_o when_o it_o be_v attribute_v unto_o god_n it_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o he_o tempt_v we_o to_o lead_v we_o to_o do_v ill_a for_o we_o be_v of_o of_o ourselves_o thereunto_o overmuch_o incline_v and_o as_o s._n james_n say_v every_o man_n be_v tempt_v of_o his_o own_o concupiscence_n 1.14_o james_n 1.14_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o seek_v after_o the_o cause_n of_o these_o fault_n any_o where_o else_o but_o in_o ourselves_o wherefore_o god_n tempt_v we_o not_o so_o as_o to_o say_v that_o the_o salt_n be_v in_o he_o and_o that_o we_o may_v impute_v the_o evil_a which_o we_o commit_v unto_o he_o as_o if_o he_o be_v author_n thereof_o but_o god_n tempt_v those_o that_o be_v he_o to_o sound_v they_o and_o therefore_o this_o word_n import_v to_o examine_v to_o prove_v not_o that_o he_o need_v to_o inquire_v what_o be_v in_o we_o thought_n god_n see_v our_o thought_n for_o we_o know_v that_o nothing_o be_v unknow_v to_o he_o the_o book_n be_v not_o as_o yet_o open_a but_o yet_o so_o as_o that_o god_n know_v and_o judge_v that_o which_o he_o will_v make_v manifest_a at_o the_o last_o day_n and_o therefore_o he_o have_v no_o need_n to_o sound_v and_o try_v we_o faith_n affliction_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o trial_n of_o out_o faith_n for_o he_o do_v that_o that_o be_v in_o we_o but_o this_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o probation_n of_o our_o faith_n for_o as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v god_n will_v not_o have_v his_o gift_n to_o be_v unprofitable_a but_o will_v apply_v they_o to_o some_o use_n to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v thereby_o be_v glorify_v and_o we_o thereby_o also_o so_o much_o the_o better_o be_v confirm_v consider_v how_o wonderful_o he_o regard_v we_o and_o will_v have_v we_o with_o patience_n fight_v against_o all_o the_o assalt_v of_o satan_n &_o of_o the_o world_n that_o we_o thereby_o may_v find_v by_o experience_n that_o god_n be_v with_o we_o and_o love_v we_o wherefore_o we_o have_v good_a cause_n the_o more_o confident_o to_o call_v upon_o he_o to_o run_v unto_o he_o and_o stay_v ourselves_o upon_o his_o goodness_n and_o not_o to_o doubt_v of_o his_o help_n even_o unto_o the_o end_n salvation_n god_n tri_v we_o by_o affliction_n both_o for_o his_o own_o glory_n and_o also_o for_o our_o salvation_n thus_o we_o see_v then_o in_o sum_n why_o god_n tri_v we_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o will_v have_v the_o gift_n which_o he_o bestow_v on_o we_o to_o be_v apply_v to_o serve_v he_o to_o the_o end_n all_o man_n may_v know_v his_o power_n goodness_n and_o wisdom_n that_o thereby_o he_o may_v be_v glorify_v as_o he_o deserve_v but_o it_o be_v chief_o to_o this_o end_n that_o we_o may_v know_v his_o fatherly_a goodness_n towards_o we_o and_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o stir_v up_o to_o honour_v he_o and_o full_o and_o whole_o dedicate_v ourselves_o unto_o he_o and_o withal_o to_o trust_v altogether_o in_o he_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o abraham_n be_v tempt_v and_o so_o be_v also_o all_o the_o faithful_a servant_n of_o god_n at_o this_o day_n for_o if_o we_o shall_v live_v at_o ease_n and_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n cost_v we_o nothing_o what_o proof_n shall_v there_o be_v of_o our_o faith_n moreover_o which_o way_n shall_v the_o true_a child_n of_o god_n and_o such_o as_o serve_v he_o in_o simplicity_n of_o heart_n be_v discern_v from_o hypocrite_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v be_v try_v by_o temptation_n even_o as_o gold_n and_o silver_n be_v try_v in_o the_o furnaise_n see_v also_o why_o saint_n peter_n say_v that_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o our_o faith_n shall_v be_v try_v 6_o 1._o pet._n ●1_n 6_o now_o because_o gold_n &_o silver_n be_v precious_a thing_n therefore_o it_o be_v very_o meet_v they_o shall_v be_v try_v by_o the_o fire_n and_o yet_o be_v but_o these_o corruptible_a metal_n &_o shall_v our_o faith_n which_o be_v far_o more_o excellent_a be_v bury_v in_o the_o earth_n and_o so_o rust_n and_o god_n his_o glory_n not_o be_v see_v therein_o no_o no_o it_o must_v not_o be_v so_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v try_v wherefore_o let_v not_o we_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o if_o the_o lord_n shall_v so_o deal_v with_o we_o as_o to_o lose_v the_o reins_n to_o the_o devil_n to_o lead_v we_o to_o do_v evil_a to_o have_v the_o wicked_a also_o vex_v and_o torment_v we_o and_o beside_o to_o have_v other_o inward_a temptation_n lay_v upon_o us._n to_o be_v short_a if_o we_o shall_v be_v exercise_v every_o manner_n of_o way_n note_n note_n yet_o let_v we_o know_v that_o we_o have_v need_v to_o have_v the_o lord_n for_o his_o part_n to_o set_v down_o unto_o we_o that_o which_o before_o be_v hide_v and_o to_o we_o unknowen_a we_o see_v then_o why_o temptation_n shall_v not_o seem_v bitter_a but_o rather_o sweet_a unto_o we_o because_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n appli_v they_o unto_o our_o salvation_n and_o so_o serve_v his_o turn_n with_o they_o as_o that_o his_o name_n be_v thereby_o glorify_v and_o ourselves_o also_o by_o that_o mean_n more_o and_o more_o benefit_v if_o so_o be_v we_o look_v unto_o the_o issue_n now_o in_o this_o temptation_n which_o be_v here_o touch_v abraham_n be_v deadly_o wound_v as_o if_o god_n will_v have_v cast_v he_o into_o the_o deep_a bottomless_a pit_n of_o

kill_v his_o son_n how_o beit_n this_o be_v not_o all_o to_o have_v abraham_n to_o take_v his_o own_o sword_n and_o kill_v his_o own_o son_n but_o there_o be_v a_o far●e_n more_o grievous_a temptation_n impose_v upon_o he_o worthy_a the_o note_n whereof_o we_o will_v hereafter_o speak_v more_o at_o large_a but_o for_o this_o time_n it_o shall_v suffice_v that_o we_o give_v you_o a_o
