yet_o what_o we_o have_v further_a to_o remember_v out_o of_o this_o place_n and_o herewithal_o we_o see_v also_o that_o when_o god_n servant_n perceive_v themselves_o to_o be_v near_o their_o end_n

145.19_o psal._n 145.19_o have_v not_o thy_o god_n promise_v that_o he_o will_v pity_v such_o as_o call_v upon_o he_o yes_o in_o deed_n but_o i_o know_v not_o whether_o i_o be_v of_o that_o sort_n

to_o he_o if_o we_o consider_v but_o what_o we_o ourselves_o be_v sure_o we_o shall_v be_v utter_o dismay_v as_o for_o example_n when_o god_n promise_v issue_n unto_o abraham_n he_o be_v a_o man_n

and_o how_o will_v we_o say_v it_o be_v not_o for_o we_o to_o inquire_v beyond_o our_o measure_n let_v we_o content_v ourselves_o with_o this_o that_o god_n goodness_n be_v a_o unblameable_a justice_n

for_o god_n know_v his_o rule_n full_a well_o but_o we_o for_o our_o part_n have_v need_v to_o be_v hold_v in_o awe_n and_o under_o subjection_n and_o if_o we_o will_v be_v at_o liberty_n to_o do_v

that_o the_o father_n shall_v not_o be_v punish_v for_o the_o child_n fault_n nor_o the_o child_n for_o the_o father_n but_o that_o he_o which_o offend_v shall_v bear_v the_o punishment_n of_o his_o

that_o they_o discharge_v not_o their_o dewtie_n except_o they_o maintain_v a_o other_o man_n wickedness_n oh_o say_v they_o he_o that_o have_v do_v this_o offence_n be_v my_o neighbour_n or_o my_o

to_o tread_v they_o under_o foot_n because_o they_o see_v they_o be_v able_a to_o work_v their_o own_o revenge_n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o god_n make_v no_o mention_n of_o such_o person_n

therefore_o note_v well_o that_o god_n in_o this_o place_n as_o
that_o the_o judge_n may_v persuade_v the_o man_n and_o if_o they_o see_v he_o to_o stand_v stiff_a in_o his_o opinion_n than_o the_o woman_n shall_v pluck_v off_o his_o shoe_n from_o his_o foot_n

we_o have_v far_o to_o note_n that_o god_n will_v have_v the_o judge_n speak_v unto_o the_o man_n to_o persuade_v he_o as_o far_o as_o they_o be_v able_a and_o if_o the_o man_n will_v not_o consent_v unto_o they_o they_o shall_v content_v themselves_o with_o this_o kind_n of_o punishment_n whereby_o we_o see_v that_o the_o magistrate_n and_o other_o justicer_n ought_v to_o abstain_v from_o use_v any_o force_n and_o violence_n in_o that_o thing_n which_o they_o can_v simple_o command_v as_o for_o example_n if_o there_o be_v a_o thing_n which_o be_v good_a and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o law_n

to_o do_v it_o and_o i_o ought_v not_o to_o pass_v those_o bound_n let_v we_o therefore_o note_v well_o that_o such_o as_o be_v arm_v with_o the_o sword_n must_v contain_v themselves_o within_o their_o bound_n and_o not_o challenge_v to_o themselves_o any_o lawless_a liberty_n to_o say_v what_o i_o command_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o therefore_o you_o must_v do_v it_o

to_o bear_v in_o mind_n upon_o this_o place_n now_o as_o touch_v the_o shame_n that_o be_v do_v in_o pluck_v off_o of_o their_o shoe_n &_o in_o spit_v in_o their_o face_n it_o serve_v to_o provoke_v

unto_o that_o which_o i_o say_v in_o the_o beginning_n namely_o that_o there_o be_v not_o now_o any_o carnal_a kindred_n privilege_v as_o the_o race_n and_o lineage_n of_o abraham_n be_v for_o god_n

be_v a_o notable_a mirror_n for_o us._n we_o see_v the_o like_a in_o the_o holy_a patriarch_n who_o although_o they_o do_v endeavour_n and_o travail_n to_o serve_v god_n yet_o be_v they_o in_o as_o great_a trouble_n and_o grief_n as_o can_v be_v the_o same_o be_v yet_o more_o manifest_a in_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o see_v that_o god_n have_v reveil_v more_o full_o what_o be_v the_o perfect_a happiness_n of_o man_n it_o behoove_v the_o faithful_a to_o be_v exercise_v under_o many_o adversity_n in_o this_o transitory_a life_n but_o let_v we_o mark_v first_o of_o all_o that_o if_o god_n do_v not_o punish_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o faithful_a he_o do_v it_o to_o preserve_v they_o as_o the_o physician_n that_o wait_v not_o always_o till_o the_o sickness_n do_v appear_v but_o if_o he_o perceive_v any_o likelihood_n that_o a_o man_n be_v in_o danger_n he_o will_v prevent_v it_o god_n then_o in_o not_o punish_v the_o sin_n that_o be_v present_o commit_v by_o his_o child_n do_v use_v chastisement_n towards_o they_o as_o preservative_n medicine_n it_o may_v every_o day_n fall_v out_o that_o a_o man_n have_v not_o offend_v against_o god_n in_o some_o particular_a sin_n but_o what_o if_o he_o be_v always_o in_o prosperity_n he_o will_v forget_v himself_o god_n therefore_o do_v cure_v such_o disease_n by_o withdraw_a his_o blessing_n he_o will_v not_o suffer_v the_o fat_a to_o blind_v man_n eye_n or_o to_o hinder_v our_o come_n unto_o he_o lest_o it_o shall_v stay_v we_o too_o long_o in_o this_o world_n he_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o be_v so_o entangle_v in_o our_o delight_n as_o to_o fall_v altogether_o on_o sleep_n in_o the_o same_o there_o be_v yet_o a_o second_o point_n to_o wit_n that_o when_o god_n forbear_v to_o punish_v we_o for_o our_o sin_n it_o be_v not_o that_o he_o have_v not_o always_o just_a cause_n so_o to_o do_v if_o he_o list_v let_v the_o perfect_a folk_n in_o the_o world_n be_v choose_v out_o and_o yet_o if_o god_n will_v deal_v with_o they_o by_o rigour_n he_o shall_v lay_v many_o hard_a knock_n upon_o their_o pate_n but_o true_o we_o think_v it_o not_o so_o for_o we_o be_v not_o so_o sharp_a sight_v as_o to_o know_v the_o

mean_v the_o most_o righteous_a that_o can_v be_v find_v as_o for_o example_n when_o david_n be_v cruel_o persecute_v of_o saul_n and_o of_o all_o his_o enemy_n when_o abraham_n be_v stinge_v and_o

and_o final_o when_o the_o apostle_n and_o all_o the_o faithful_a be_v cruel_o deal_v with_o it_o be_v not_o for_o their_o sin_n no_o very_o but_o have_v it_o please_v god_n to_o have_v call_v they_o to_o account_v he_o may_v have_v punish_v they_o a_o hundred_o time_n more_o and_o they_o shall_v have_v have_v no_o cause_n to_o have_v accuse_v he_o of_o cruelty_n he_o spare_v they_o and_o in_o so_o do_v he_o do_v they_o the_o honour_n to_o suffer_v for_o his_o name_n or_o rather_o he_o try_v their_o obedience_n kill_v their_o carnal_a affection_n and_o draw_v they_o near_o unto_o himself_o as_o for_o example_n whereas_o it_o please_v god_n to_o make_v job_n a_o mirror_n of_o patience_n yet_o nevertheless_o he_o make_v he_o acquaint_v with_o his_o own_o frailty_n but_o howsoevet_n it_o be_v yet_o be_v it_o his_o intent_n to_o make_v he_o to_o serve_v for_o a_o example_n to_o we_o all_o we_o perceive_v then_o that_o god_n have_v other_o meaning_n in_o afflict_v his_o people_n than_o only_o to_o punish_v their_o sin_n nevertheless_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o uphold_v they_o even_o by_o his_o own_o mere_a grace_n and_o yet_o must_v we_o on_o our_o side_n resort_v back_o to_o this_o point_n that_o the_o original_n of_o all_o the_o misery_n that_o we_o suffer_v in_o this_o present_a world_n do_v proceed_v of_o sin_n and_o why_o so_o for_o be_v not_o this_o corruption_n in_o our_o

alone_o but_o that_o all_o the_o whole_a earth_n be_v bless_v of_o god_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v feel_v the_o same_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n but_o where_o be_v the_o earthly_a paradise_n now_o it_o be_v no_o where_n at_o all_o for_o in_o very_a deed_n the_o earth_n be_v accurse_v it_o be_v the_o sentence_n that_o god_n pronounce_v upon_o adam_n &_o upon_o all_o his_o offspring_n 3.17_o gen._n 3.17_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o all_o the_o misery_n whereunto_o we_o be_v subject_a in_o this_o present_a world_n do_v grow_v from_o this_o root_n that_o we_o continue_v not_o in_o the_o perfection_n wherein_o adam_n be_v create_v and_o that_o god_n reform_v we_o when_o we_o have_v do_v amiss_o or_o rather_o behold_v the_o vice_n whereof_o he_o

to_o suffer_v for_o the_o testimony_n of_o his_o truth_n and_o to_o receive_v wrongful_a persecution_n at_o man_n hand_n under_o any_o colour_n or_o occasion_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v moreover_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o vain_a that_o god_n promise_v that_o they_o which_o serve_v he_o shall_v lead_v a_o happy_a life_n even_o in_o this_o world_n not_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v exempt_v from_o all_o adversity_n for_o that_o be_v impossible_a yea_o and_o also_o against_o our_o salvation_n but_o he_o will_v so_o dispose_v our_o life_n as_o we_o shall_v perceive_v that_o he_o mean_v not_o to_o feed_v we_o with_o a_o vain_a hope_n when_o he_o say_v that_o he_o will_v cause_v all_o they_o to_o prosper_v that_o harken_v unto_o his_o voice_n but_o by_o the_o way_n we_o must_v remember_v that_o the_o blessing_n which_o be_v here_o contain_v serve_v not_o to_o show_v what_o the_o sovereign_a felicity_n of_o man_n be_v but_o to_o give_v we_o a_o taste_n of_o the_o heavenly_a life_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v seek_v for_o the_o celestial_a inheritance_n which_o be_v promise_v we_o there_o to_o set_v our_o rest_n this_o must_v be_v lay_v forth_o more_o particular_o or_o else_o it_o will_v be_v dark_a it_o be_v true_a that_o there_o be_v difference_n betwixt_o we_o and_o the_o father_n that_o live_v under_o the_o law_n for_o god_n do_v there_o entreat_v they_o as_o

they_o have_v need_n of_o some_o aid_n whereof_o we_o at_o this_o time_n have_v no_o need_n at_o all_o neither_o may_v we_o think_v our_o state_n to_o be_v therefore_o the_o worse_a as_o many_o do_v

far_o off_o from_o the_o common_a curse_n of_o mankind_n true_a it_o be_v that_o god_n goodness_n extend_v over_o all_o the_o man_n of_o the_o world_n we_o see_v how_o all_o be_v feed_v and_o maintain_v by_o his_o liberality_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o we_o see_v to_o how_o many_o misery_n man_n be_v subject_a for_o this_o cause_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v sunder_v and_o that_o

be_v a_o word_n well_o worth_a the_o mark_v where_o moses_n say_v that_o god_n have_v separate_v we_o from_o all_o other_o nation_n of_o the_o world_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o this_o word_n

therefore_o in_o behold_v what_o the_o state_n of_o man_n be_v in_o this_o present_a life_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o resort_v always_o to_o this_o promise_n that_o god_n have_v not_o only_o create_v

then_o that_o the_o case_n stand_v so_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o walk_v in_o such_o obedience_n to_o our_o god_n as_o he_o may_v make_v the_o redemption_n available_a which_o be_v wrought_v by_o our_o

to_o comfort_v we_o in_o the_o mid_n of_o all_o our_o heaviness_n at_o leastwise_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v a_o bridle_n to_o restrain_v our_o sorrow_n that_o it_o pass_v not_o the_o bound_n and_o so_o

when_o we_o perceive_v any_o sign_n of_o his_o wrath_n and_o when_o we_o have_v acknowledge_v our_o sin_n and_o ask_v forgiveness_n of_o they_o at_o his_o hand_n we_o must_v also_o wait_v his_o
