infinite_a multitude_n a_o wonderful_a variety_n as_o among_o so_o many_o million_o of_o man_n never_o a_o one_o like_o another_o in_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o face_n a_o most_o constant_a order_n a_o seemly_a agreement_n and_o a_o endless_a continuance_n or_o pleasant_a intercourse_n of_o thing_n come_v and_o go_v and_o what_o exceed_v majesty_n be_v in_o they_o we_o must_v needs_o attribute_v these_o thing_n unto_o a_o god_n 4_o the_o opinion_n that_o man_n have_v of_o god_n prove_v it_o for_o man_n by_o nature_n do_v desire_v to_o be_v exalt_v and_o in_o respect_n of_o himself_o despise_v all_o other_o creature_n as_o wood_n and_o stone_n but_o when_o a_o piece_n of_o wood_n be_v frame_v out_o like_o a_o man_n and_o set_v in_o the_o temple_n and_o man_n conceave_a a_o opinion_n that_o it_o be_v a_o god_n he_o fall_v down_o and_o worship_v it_o 44.15.17_o 5_o the_o terror_n of_o conscience_n strike_v into_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o wicked_a after_o sin_n come_v upon_o they_o from_o a_o judge_n who_o detest_v dishonest_a thing_n and_o exercise_v judgement_n upon_o the_o mind_n 2.15_o but_o in_o all_o the_o wicked_a be_v this_o torment_n therefore_o there_o be_v some_o judge_n 57.20.21_o who_o be_v god_n because_o this_o punishment_n can_v not_o come_v but_o from_o god_n 66.24_o 6_o the_o punishment_n of_o the_o wicked_a beside_o the_o terror_n of_o their_o conscience_n with_o the_o reward_n of_o the_o godly_a do_v prove_v that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n and_o this_o argument_n be_v use_v by_o the_o prophet_n david_n when_o he_o say_v the_o righteous_a shall_v rejoice_v when_o he_o see_v the_o vengeance_n 58.10.1_o he_o shall_v wash_v his_o footstep_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o ungodlie_a so_o that_o a_o man_n shall_v say_v very_o there_o be_v a_o reward_n for_o the_o righteous_a doubtless_o there_o be_v a_o god_n that_o judge_v the_o earth_n q._n what_o be_v god_n a._n there_o be_v but_o one_o definition_n of_o god_n in_o all_o the_o scripture_n 4.24_o and_o that_o be_v this_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n q._n a_o spirit_n be_v limit_v and_o compass_v with_o time_n and_o place_n therefore_o if_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n he_o be_v so_o too_o be_v he_o not_o a._n in_o deed_n certain_a heretic_n call_v gnostici_fw-la have_v abuse_v that_o place_n of_o john_n to_o that_o effect_n but_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n the_o meaning_n be_v this_o god_n be_v spiritual_a that_o be_v not_o to_o be_v see_v of_o carnal_a eye_n but_o be_v invisible_a not_o otherwise_o q._n how_o be_v god_n to_o be_v consider_v a._n two_o way_n either_o as_o he_o be_v in_o himself_o or_o as_o he_o be_v unto_o us._n q._n can_v god_n be_v know_v of_o we_o as_o he_o be_v in_o himself_o a._n no_o all_o nature_n be_v not_o able_a to_o teach_v we_o what_o god_n be_v neither_o can_v man_n in_o nature_n comprehend_v he_o q._n how_o prove_v you_o that_o 36.26_o a._n i_o prove_v it_o two_o way_n 6.16_o first_o by_o plain_a testimony_n of_o scripture_n second_o by_o common_a reason_n q._n how_o do_v common_a reason_n prove_v it_o a._n 1._o that_o all_o nature_n be_v not_o able_a to_o teach_v we_o what_o god_n be_v i_o prove_v it_o thus_o no_o work_n be_v able_a perfect_o to_o express_v the_o worker_n thereof_o but_o all_o nature_n be_v a_o thing_n wrought_v by_o god_n therefore_o it_o can_v not_o perfect_o teach_v we_o what_o god_n be_v that_o man_n can_v comprehend_v he_o i_o prove_v it_o thus_o 2_o the_o less_o can_v not_o comprehend_v the_o great_a but_o every_o man_n be_v less_o than_o god_n therefore_o no_o man_n can_v comprehend_v god_n 3_o we_o can_v not_o know_v the_o thing_n create_v much_o less_o can_v we_o know_v the_o creator_n as_o for_o example_n we_o know_v that_o every_o man_n have_v a_o soul_n but_o who_o know_v what_o manner_n of_o thing_n it_o be_v again_o we_o know_v that_o there_o be_v angel_n and_o that_o they_o be_v among_o we_o but_o what_o manner_n of_o thing_n they_o be_v we_o know_v not_o 4_o the_o scripture_n say_v the_o judgement_n of_o god_n be_v past_o find_v out_o therefore_o much_o more_o be_v god_n himself_o past_o find_v out_o 11.33_o 2.9_o and_o again_o the_o joy_n of_o heaven_n which_o god_n have_v prepare_v for_o the_o godly_a be_v unspeakable_a much_o more_o therefore_o be_v god_n himself_o unspeakable_a q._n be_v there_o no_o knowledge_n to_o be_v have_v of_o god_n 1.21_o a._n yes_o for_o paul_n say_v the_o gentile_n know_v god_n but_o do_v not_o honour_v he_o as_o god_n but_o even_o as_o prince_n have_v their_o secret_n whereunto_o all_o their_o subject_n be_v not_o make_v privy_a simile_n neither_o be_v it_o lawful_a for_o they_o to_o search_v into_o they_o and_o yet_o do_v they_o so_o far_o forth_o publish_v their_o commandment_n as_o be_v profitable_a for_o they_o to_o know_v so_o the_o prince_n of_o all_o prince_n have_v his_o secret_n unto_o which_o we_o be_v not_o privy_a and_o into_o which_o we_o may_v not_o search_v yet_o he_o have_v so_o far_o reveal_v himself_o unto_o we_o as_o be_v profitable_a for_o we_o to_o know_v therefore_o he_o say_v to_o moses_n 33.18_o my_o face_n thou_o can_v not_o see_v that_o be_v the_o glory_n of_o my_o majesty_n he_o do_v not_o say_v thou_o may_v not_o or_o thou_o shall_v not_o but_o thou_o can_v not_o but_o thou_o shall_v see_v my_o back_n part_n that_o be_v some_o small_a measure_n of_o my_o glory_n so_o far_o as_o thou_o be_v able_a to_o apprehend_v it_o q._n where_o be_v this_o knowledge_n of_o god_n to_o be_v have_v a._n in_o the_o scripture_n 119.14_o for_o they_o bear_v witness_n of_o god_n joh._n 5.39_o and_o therefore_o they_o be_v call_v his_o testimony_n because_o they_o testify_v of_o god_n what_o he_o be_v and_o how_o he_o will_v be_v serve_v of_o us._n q._n may_v we_o not_o learn_v more_o of_o god_n than_o the_o scripture_n do_v teach_v a._n no_o 15.4_o for_o paul_n say_v that_o no_o man_n must_v presume_v above_o that_o which_o be_v write_v but_o so_o much_o as_o be_v write_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v write_v for_o our_o learning_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v prepare_v by_o true_a prayer_n sanctify_v with_o faith_n and_o season_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o sobriety_n and_o humility_n we_o may_v i_o say_v safe_o learn_v so_o much_o as_o be_v reveal_v in_o the_o scripture_n for_o our_o profit_v in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n 29.29_o for_o moses_n say_v secret_a thing_n belong_v to_o god_n but_o thing_n reveal_v belong_v to_o we_o and_o to_o our_o child_n q._n which_o call_v you_o the_o scripture_n a._n the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n which_o begin_v with_o genesis_n and_o end_n with_o the_o prophet_n and_o the_o book_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o begin_v at_o matthew_n &_o end_n with_o revelation_n of_o john_n q._n these_o be_v write_v by_o man_n which_o be_v subject_a to_o error_n and_o have_v their_o infirmity_n &_o therefore_o why_o shall_v we_o believe_v they_o a._n though_o they_o be_v man_n 1.21_o yet_o they_o be_v holy_a man_n set_v apart_o by_o god_n for_o that_o work_n and_o speak_v as_o they_o be_v move_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n q._n when_o jeremie_n bring_v the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o the_o jew_n 43.2.3_o they_o say_v it_o be_v not_o the_o ward_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o he_o speak_v as_o baruch_n the_o son_n of_o neriah_n provoke_v he_o and_o so_o some_o perhaps_o in_o our_o day_n be_v so_o ungodly_a as_o to_o take_v the_o jew_n part_n against_o jeremie_n and_o all_o his_o fellow_n let_v i_o hear_v therefore_o some_o reason_n to_o prove_v and_o make_v it_o manifest_a that_o they_o speak_v and_o write_v the_o very_a word_n of_o god_n a._n that_o the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n contain_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o be_v write_v by_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o may_v appear_v by_o these_o twelve_o reason_n follow_v 1_o their_o antiquity_n prove_v it_o 2_o their_o faithfulness_n without_o partiality_n which_o appear_v by_o jacobs_n deal_v with_o simeon_n and_o levi_n his_o own_o posterity_n 12.1_o and_o by_o the_o deal_n of_o moses_n against_o aaraon_n &_o miriam_n his_o brother_n &_o sister_n 3_o the_o miracle_n which_o do_v so_o often_o follow_v their_o doctrine_n 4_o a_o continuance_n of_o wonderful_a prophecy_n utter_v long_o before_o come_v to_o pass_v just_a in_o their_o time_n 8._o mark_v with_o their_o circumstance_n not_o doubtful_a like_o marlins_n prophecy_n but_o such_o as_o express_v the_o thing_n and_o person_n by_o their_o name_n and_o therefore_o unto_o what_o may_v we_o attribute_v they_o but_o to_o the_o inspiration_n of_o god_n 5_o the_o heavenly_a doctrine_n in_o every_o place_n and_o nothing_o savour_v of_o earthliness_n do_v
