paul_n speak_v that_o of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n therefore_o i_o also_o may_v conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o superfluity_n in_o the_o gospel_n nor_o any_o thing_n which_o serve_v not_o too_o good_a purpose_n and_o whereby_o we_o may_v 〈◊〉_d be_v edify_v both_o in_o faith_n and_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n but_o this_o doctrine_n 〈…〉_o contain_v there_o and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n speak_v it_o loud_a and_o shirle_z 〈◊〉_d therefore_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v manichee_n which_o intend_v too_o nip_v and_o 〈…〉_o the_o gospel_n for_o look_v what_o like_v not_o they_o they_o do_v set_v it_o aside_o 〈…〉_o forge_a a_o gospel_n of_o diverse_a piece_n allow_v nothing_o but_o that_o 〈◊〉_d they_o themselves_o think_v good_a of_o now_o if_o such_o manner_n of_o 〈…〉_o

also_o which_o will_v now_o a_o day_n have_v the_o doctrine_n of_o election_n keep_v in_o silence_n for_o they_o will_v over-rule_v god_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a &_o stop_v his_o mouth_n as_o oft_o as_o he_o utter_v any_o thing_n that_o like_v not_o they_o again_o a_o man_n may_v evident_o see_v their_o beastliness_n in_o that_o s._n paul_n have_v not_o a_o better_a proof_n whereby_o too_o magnify_v god_n goodness_n than_o this_o then_o if_o there_o be_v none_o other_o reason_n yet_o be_v it_o better_o that_o the_o whole_a world_n shall_v go_v too_o confusion_n than_o that_o this_o doctrine_n shall_v be_v suppress_v with_o silence_n for_o be_v it_o reason_n that_o god_n shall_v set_v the_o infinite_a treasure_n of_o his_o mercy_n before_o our_o eye_n and_o yet_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v speak_v of_o but_o be_v thrust_v under_o foot_n but_o there_o be_v yet_o two_o reason_n more_o which_o show_v that_o this_o doctrine_n be_v most_o needful_a too_o be_v preach_v and_o that_o we_o reap_v so_o great_a profit_n by_o it_o as_o it_o have_v be_v much_o better_a that_o we_o have_v never_o be_v bear_v than_o too_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o thing_n that_o s._n paul_n show_v here_o for_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n whereat_o we_o must_v chief_o am_z and_o whereunto_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o apply_v all_o our_o wit_n and_o endeavour_n and_o they_o be_v the_o very_a sum_n of_o all_o the_o thing_n which_o god_n teach_v we_o by_o the_o holy_a scripture_n the_o one_o be_v the_o magnify_v of_o god_n as_o he_o deserve_v and_o the_o other_o be_v the_o assuredness_n of_o our_o salvation_n 15._o that_o we_o may_v call_v upon_o he_o as_o our_o father_n with_o full_a liberty_n if_o we_o have_v not_o these_o two_o thing_n woe_n worth_a we_o for_o there_o be_v neither_o faith_n nor_o religion_n in_o we_o well_o may_v we_o talk_v of_o god_n but_o it_o shall_v be_v but_o a_o lease_v as_o touch_v the_o first_o point_n i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o that_o god_n grace_n be_v not_o sufficient_o know_v but_o by_o se●ting_v god_n election_n as_o it_o be_v before_o our_o eye_n for_o put_v the_o case_n that_o god_n draw_v all_o man_n alike_o and_o that_o such_o as_o intend_v too_o obtain_v salvation_n must_v come_v of_o their_o own_o free_a will_n and_o selfmoving_a if_o it_o be_v so_o then_o be_v it_o certain_a that_o we_o deserve_v too_o be_v receive_v at_o god_n hand_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v handle_v every_o man_n according_a too_o his_o worthiness_n but_o wherein_o shall_v god_n goodness_n be_v magnify_v even_o in_o this_o that_o he_o prevent_v we_o of_o his_o own_o mere_a free_a good_a will_n and_o love_v we_o nevertheless_o without_o find_v any_o thing_n either_o in_o we_o or_o in_o our_o work_v why_o he_o shall_v love_v we_o if_o this_o be_v true_a then_o must_v there_o needs_o be_v election_n so_o as_o god_n must_v take_v the_o one_o sort_n because_o he_o think_v it_o good_a so_o to_o do_v &_o leave_v the_o other_o thus_o you_o see_v it_o be_v a_o most_o assure_a point_n that_o god_n glory_n do_v not_o appear_v &_o shine_v forth_o as_o be_v requisite_a except_o it_o be_v know_v that_o he_o shed_v forth_o his_o goodness_n and_o love_n where_o it_o please_v he_o i_o say_v even_o now_o that_o the_o preach_n of_o his_o word_n be_v a_o singular_a benefit_n too_o we_o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o it_o be_v say_v so_o often_o in_o the_o law_n &_o 〈…〉_o that_o god_n have_v not_o deal_v so_o with_o any_o other_o nation_n as_o he_o 〈…〉_o the_o lineage_n of_o abraham_n 7._o in_o that_o he_o voutsaf●d_v

and_o yet_o 〈◊〉_d a_o great_a sort_n continue_v in_o their_o unbelief_n and_o stubbornness_n and_o othersome_a believe_v now_o s._n luke_n say_v plain_o that_o the_o cause_n thereof_o be_v not_o for_o that_o the_o one_o sort_n be_v more_o forward_a folk_n than_o the_o other_o or_o for_o that_o there_o be_v any_o towardness_n of_o virtue_n more_o in_o the_o one_o than_o in_o the_o other_o but_o for_o that_o god_n have_v foreordeyn_v they_o too_o salvation_n therefore_o at_o one_o word_n we_o see_v that_o all_o man_n deserve_v must_v cease_v and_o be_v lay_v under_o foot_n or_o else_o god_n shall_v not_o have_v his_o deserve_a praise_n yea_o and_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o faith_n come_v not_o of_o ourselves_o for_o if_o it_o do_v then_o shall_v there_o be_v some_o worthiness_n in_o our_o work_v true_a it_o be_v that_o by_o faith_n we_o confess_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o wretchedness_n in_o we_o that_o we_o be_v damn_v and_o accurse_a and_o that_o we_o bring_v not_o aught_o with_o we_o but_o only_o a_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o
sin_n but_o yet_o shall_v our_o faith_n serve_v for_o some_o desert_n if_o we_o have_v it_o of_o our_o own_o breed_n we_o must_v therefore_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o man_n too_o believe_v unless_o it_o be_v give_v they_o from_o above_o and_o sure_o s._n paul_n declare_v here_o a_o thing_n well_o worthy_a too_o be_v mark_v when_o he_o say_v bliss_v be_v god._n and_o for_o

let_v we_o remember_v well_o s._n paul_n order_n he_o say_v that_o god_n have_v give_v we_o faith_n as_o well_o as_o any_o of_o all_o the_o rest_n according_a too_o his_o choose_v of_o we_o we_o see_v then_o that_o faith_n depend_v upon_o god_n election_n or_o else_o we_o must_v make_v s._n paul_n a_o liar_n and_o so_o as_o touch_v the_o first_o point_n you_o see_v that_o all_o such_o as_o can_v

that_o all_o such_o as_o offend_v god_n any_o other_o way_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v shall_v yet_o be_v hold_v in_o awe_n by_o some_o fear_n and_o have_v some_o remnant_n of_o discretion_n leave_v in_o

as_o god_n ordain_v it_o and_o so_o long_o as_o the_o jew_n use_v it_o holy_o it_o be_v a_o sure_a warrant_n to_o they_o of_o god_n adoption_n as_o if_o he_o have_v cleanse_v they_o from_o all_o the_o

he_o show_v that_o the_o sacrament_n take_v and_o borrow_v their_o force_n of_o god_n word_n for_o if_o there_o be_v nomore_o but_o the_o bare_a sign_n it_o be_v no_o matter_n of_o great_a

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

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

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
