have_v say_v already_o god_n word_n and_o the_o power_n of_o bring_v too_o pass_v the_o thing_n contain_v therein_o be_v thing_n unseparable_a and_o we_o blaspheme_v god_n as_o oft_o as_o we_o be_v

whatsoever_o seem_v too_o be_v against_o we_o and_o so_o you_o see_v how_o you_o must_v always_o have_v the_o say_a chain_n to_o tie_v god_n promise_n &_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o ring_v of_o they_o

and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o we_o do_v not_o yet_o perceive_v such_o fullness_n of_o god_n grace_n as_o be_v to_o be_v wish_v therefore_o s._n paul_n send_v we_o to_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n

and_o all_o our_o enemy_n now_o than_o we_o see_v s._n paul_n meaning_n that_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o may_v be_v cast_v down_o and_o our_o faith_n at_o least_o wise_a sore_o shake_v if_o we_o shall_v look_v no_o further_o than_o too_o ourselves_o therefore_o he_o set_v jesus_n christ_n before_o we_o as_o the_o true_a pattern_n wherein_o we_o may_v see_v the_o thing_n that_o as_o yet_o be_v

part_n of_o the_o well_o order_v of_o our_o life_n set_v down_o here_o by_o saint_n paul_n which_o be_v that_o we_o must_v walk_v in_o newness_n of_o life_n because_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o be_v

any_o wisdom_n in_o we_o saint_n paul_n say_v it_o must_v be_v correct_v and_o why_o true_a it_o be_v that_o our_o reason_n of_o itself_o be_v always_o commendable_a but_o we_o be_v so_o corrupt_v by_o adam_n sin_n â—_o that_o we_o have_v not_o the_o skill_n to_o think_v so_o much_o as_o one_o good_a thought_n which_o be_v not_o crooked_a and_o full_a of_o malice_n and_o rebellion_n against_o

you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o thing_n whereunto_o we_o must_v enforce_v ourselves_o if_o we_o purpose_v too_o please_v god_n be_v that_o be_v rid_v of_o all_o our_o own_o conceit_n and_o affection_n we_o get_v we_o a_o new_a guide_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n god_n spirit_n according_a whâ—â—untoo_o he_o use_v a_o like_a manner_n of_o sentence_n in_o the_o twelve_o too_o the_o roman_n 2._o in_o

yet_o be_v not_o this_o exhortation_n more_o than_o need_v because_o that_o when_o the_o holy_a scripture_n bring_v we_o too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n it_o mean_v not_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v

that_o the_o power_n which_o be_v in_o we_o shall_v come_v of_o god_n for_o it_o be_v he_o that_o move_v we_o unto_o good_a it_o be_v he_o that_o bring_v we_o to_o it_o it_o be_v he_o that_o give_v

only_o that_o every_o man_n shall_v delight_v in_o whoredom_n and_o be_v no_o more_o ashamed_a too_o give_v themselves_o over_o too_o all_o lewdness_n but_o also_o take_v it_o as_o a_o lawful_a

such_o a_o man_n of_o my_o acquaintance_n can_v well_o skill_n too_o use_v such_o a_o practyze_n and_o such_o a_o trick_n true_a it_o be_v that_o covetous_a folk_n will_v not_o speak_v so_o of_o they_o who_o they_o malice_n for_o they_o will_v say_v that_o villain_n he_o do_v nothing_o else_o but_o catch_n and_o scrape_v on_o all_o side_n there_o be_v no_o trust_n in_o he_o he_o be_v cruel_a and_o churlish_a and_o too_o be_v short_a every_o of_o they_o spite_v at_o his_o fellow_n and_o so_o you_o see_v how_o the_o covetous_a sort_n do_v rail_v one_o upon_o another_o but_o when_o a_o covetous_a person_n intend_v too_o confirm_v himself_o in_o his_o naughtiness_n and_o too_o harden_v himself_o in_o it_o and_o too_o cover_v his_o fault_n he_o will_v say_v it_o be_v meet_v that_o a_o

behind_o he_o if_o he_o leave_v not_o skin_n and_o all_o thus_o do_v covetous_a folk_n shroud_v themselves_o in_o spoil_v man_n under_o pretence_n of_o good_a thriftiness_n as_o they_o term_v it_o that_o be_v too_o say_v under_o pill_v and_o poll_n and_o such_o other_o like_o thing_n therefore_o we_o see_v how_o needful_a this_o exhortation_n of_o s._n paul_n be_v where_o he_o say_v that_o all_o vice_n must_v be_v shut_v out_o of_o the_o door_n and_o that_o if_o any_o man_n speak_v of_o they_o we_o must_v abhor_v he_o &_o not_o make_v a_o jest_a matter_n of_o they_o among_o we_o for_o

their_o ribaldry_n song_n mingle_a with_o it_o now_o what_o chastity_n can_v there_o be_v where_o it_o be_v so_o drive_v away_o and_o banish_v by_o force_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n the_o

over_o head_n and_o ear_n in_o it_o so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o when_o there_o be_v such_o disorder_n both_o in_o gesture_n and_o in_o countenance_n and_o in_o talk_n and_o in_o

when_o we_o hear_v these_o jester_n say_v what_o a_o god_n name_n man_n shall_v short_o be_v at_o the_o point_n that_o they_o may_v not_o laugh_v and_o bee-merrie_a dance_v be_o forbid_a it_o shall_v

we_o must_v not_o do_v so_o but_o when_o we_o see_v the_o mischief_n feed_v and_o increase_v by_o our_o unfaithfulness_n let_v we_o provide_v for_o it_o and_o let_v every_o man_n be_v compel_v too_o

the_o very_a mean_a to_o rid_v away_o the_o plague_n that_o satan_n will_v have_v maintain_v still_o by_o silence_n and_o dissimulation_n therefore_o whensoever_o we_o perceive_v any_o imposthume_n

after_o the_o performance_n of_o all_o here_o he_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n again_o that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o too_o have_v fight_v stout_o for_o a_o month_n or_o for_o a_o year_n but_o that_o we_o must_v hold_v out_o too_o the_o end_n yea_o even_o all_o our_o life_n long_o for_o god_n have_v set_v we_o in_o this_o world_n too_o maintain_v the_o battle_n until_o we_o be_v come_v

trubble_v we_o night_n and_o day_n without_o cease_v that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n say_v express_o that_o we_o must_v resist_v till_o we_o have_v finish_v and_o perform_v all_o

overcome_v they_o and_o it_o be_v no_o plead_v against_o god_n will_v in_o this_o behalf_n it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o he_o can_v handle_v we_o much_o gently_o and_o that_o he_o can_v so_o set_v we_o alone_o by_o ourselves_o as_o our_o enemy_n shall_v not_o come_v at_o we_o nor_o we_o suffer_v any_o vexation_n but_o it_o like_v he_o not_o too_o do_v so_o therefore_o we_o must_v bow_v down_o our_o neck_n and_o every_o of_o we_o buckle_v himself_o too_o the_o battle_n that_o god_n call_v we_o unto_o for_o as_o say_v saint_n peter_n it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o our_o faith_n which_o be_v much_o precious_a than_o gold_n and_o silver_n 7._o shall_v be_v try_v see_v that_o a_o corruptible_a mettle_n be_v fyne_v by_o fire_n shall_v our_o faith_n which_o be_v much_o more_o excellent_a

13._o even_o by_o his_o own_o example_n for_o although_o he_o have_v do_v so_o notable_a thing_n as_o a_o man_n may_v say_v that_o god_n shall_v have_v hold_v he_o quite_o &_o give_v he_o some_o

but_o that_o they_o think_v themselves_o too_o have_v do_v enough_o and_o may_v give_v other_o leave_v too_o take_v their_o turn_n why_o not_o say_v they_o it_o be_v now_o a_o twenty_o or_o thirty_o

too_o wit_n that_o we_o be_v not_o yet_o come_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o that_o there_o be_v many_o infirmity_n in_o we_o still_o and_o our_o faith_n be_v not_o

have_v finish_v all_o thing_n and_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o this_o all_o that_o have_v live_v in_o the_o obedience_n of_o our_o god_n we_o die_v likewise_o when_o it_o please_v he_o and_o according_a too_o his_o will_n for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o too_o live_v in_o awe_n of_o he_o but_o we_o must_v also_o even_o in_o our_o death_n yield_v record_n that_o we_o be_v whole_o he_o and_o

otherwise_o in_o this_o place_n if_o any_o man_n will_v say_v there_o be_v some_o contradiction_n the_o doubt_n will_v soon_o be_v dissolve_v namely_o that_o saint_n paul_n intent_n here_o be_v not_o

pray_v unto_o god_n let_v we_o bend_v our_o whole_a mind_n unto_o it_o and_o let_v not_o our_o wit_n be_v entangle_v about_o other_o care_n and_o affection_n but_o let_v our_o come_n unto_o it_o be_v

that_o in_o offer_v ourselves_o unto_o god_n we_o must_v come_v with_o all_o lowliness_n but_o yet_o must_v we_o lift_v up_o our_o heart_n in_o such_o wise_n as_o we_o may_v be_v after_o a_o sort_n

and_o if_o you_o lie_v sleep_v still_o it_o will_v cause_v your_o god_n too_o forsake_v you_o see_v you_o be_v so_o thankless_a as_o too_o despise_v his_o benefit_n and_o too_o yield_v he_o no_o

so_o as_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o too_o pray_v unto_o god_n by_o start_n and_o braid_n as_o they_o say_v but_o we_o must_v continue_v in_o it_o and_o that_o two_o way_n for_o first_o

will_v not_o otherwise_o agree_v but_o here_o by_o the_o way_n a_o man_n may_v ask_v a_o question_n for_o saint_n paul_n pray_v not_o god_n too_o give_v faith_n too_o the_o faithless_a and_o charity_n too_o they_o that_o be_v fleshly_a but_o unto_o the_o brethren_n that_o be_v too_o say_v too_o the_o body_n of_o the_o church_n now_o if_o they_o be_v of_o the_o church_n they_o be_v god_n child_n already_o they_o be_v beget_v again_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o by_o that_o mean_a they_o have_v both_o faith_n and_o charity_n but_o herein_o saint_n paul_n show_v we_o that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o that_o god_n begin_v faith_n in_o we_o unless_o he_o continue_v in_o it_o too_o the_o end_n and_o that_o like_a as_o we_o call_v faith_n the_o gift_n of_o god_n so_o must_v he_o also_o make_v it_o too_o grow_v and_o increase_v day_n by_o day_n 29._o and_o that_o be_v it_o which_o be_v mean_v by_o this_o say_n that_o it_o be_v give_v unto_o we_o not_o only_o too_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n but_o also_o too_o suffer_v for_o he_o therefore_o god_n give_v of_o faith_n unto_o we_o be_v not_o in_o such_o wise_n as_o that_o he_o do_v but_o only_o prepare_v we_o that_o we_o may_v believe_v the_o gospel_n if_o we_o list_v and_o that_o afterward_o we_o shall_v bring_v a_o consent_n of_o our_o own_o &_o go_v forward_o of_o ourselves_o by_o our_o own_o power_n no_o but_o when_o god_n have_v once_o dispose_v we_o too_o believe_v he_o must_v also_o give_v we_o such_o a_o affection_n as_o may_v touch_v we_o too_o the_o quick_a and_o afterward_o drive_v we_o forward_a and_o give_v we_o ability_n too_o persevere_v so_o as_o we_o may_v profit_v &_o go_v forward_o &_o be_v confirm_v even_o to_o the_o end_n that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n speak_v here_o of_o the_o faithful_a which_o be_v bring_v already_o into_o the_o good_a way_n and_o to_o who_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v say_v nevertheless_o that_o god_n must_v be_v fain_o too_o further_o they_o &_o give_v they_o the_o gift_n to_o hold_v out_o even_o by_o grow_a more_o and_o more_o as_o well_o in_o faith_n as_o in_o love_n and_o thereby_o we_o have_v warning_n to_o pray_v god_n to_o increase_v &_o strengthen_v our_o faith_n and_o to_o inflame_v we_o with_o charity_n and_o therewithal_o to_o make_v we_o know_v our_o imperfection_n so_o as_o although_o we_o see_v a_o

we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o we_o be_v but_o in_o our_o way_n as_o long_o as_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o enforce_v ourselves_o forward_o for_o what_o perfection_n of_o faith_n so_o ever_o we_o can_v find_v among_o man_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o god_n will_v find_v much_o amiss_o in_o it_o and_o how_o far_o forward_o soever_o we_o be_v and_o how_o well_o so_o ever_o we_o have_v profit_v in_o charity_n a_o man_n shall_v come_v far_o short_a of_o find_v that_o any_o of_o we_o have_v forget_v himself_o and_o thrust_v covetousness_n and_o ambition_n under_o
