charity_n be_v there_o in_o those_o that_o speak_v with_o the_o tongue_n of_o detraction_n scandal_n slander_n false-witness_n and_o perjury_n against_o their_o neighbour_n if_o those_o that_o give_v all_o to_o the_o poor_a may_v want_v charity_n so_o that_o all_o which_o they_o give_v profit_v they_o nothing_o what_o charity_n be_v there_o in_o those_o that_o take_v all_o from_o their_o neighbour_n to_o force_v they_o to_o forsake_v their_o faith_n if_o alm_n profit_v nothing_o without_o charity_n can_v such_o injury_n profit_v persecutor_n that_o take_v all_o away-against_a charity_n if_o a_o man_n may_v give_v his_o own_o body_n to_o burn_v and_o yet_o be_v cold_a in_o charity_n what_o charity_n be_v there_o to_o kill_v other_o body_n take_v away_o their_o life_n with_o ignominy_n and_o violence_n because_o they_o will_v not_o kill_v their_o own_o soul_n by_o act_v against_o god_n and_o their_o conscience_n if_o charity_n consist_v only_o in_o those_o that_o suffer_v all_o thing_n believe_v all_o thing_n hope_v all_o thing_n what_o charity_n be_v there_o in_o those_o who_o will_v make_v their_o neighbour_n suffer_v all_o thing_n of_o persecution_n because_o they_o believe_v and_o hope_v according_a to_o their_o conscience_n and_o profess_v their_o faith_n and_o hope_n as_o they_o be_v bind_v before_o god_n upon_o their_o salvation_n so_o to_o do_v it_o be_v certain_a that_o though_o man_n may_v pretend_v persecution_n of_o other_o for_o god_n sake_n to_o reduce_v other_o to_o he_o yet_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o for_o any_o kingdom_n to_o persecute_v any_o mere_o for_o conscience-sake_n be_v against_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o while_o they_o will_v seem_v so_o zealous_o to_o keep_v the_o first_o command_n of_o love_a god_n above_o all_o and_o force_v other_o to_o conform_v to_o their_o opinion_n they_o break_v the_o second_o command_n because_o they_o do_v not_o love_v their_o neighbour_n as_o themselves_o because_o they_o persecute_v they_o and_o so_o they_o dash_v one_o commandment_n against_o the_o other_o and_o so_o crack_v both_o commandment_n together_o for_o wheresoever_o the_o second_o command_n be_v break_v by_o not_o love_v our_o neighbour_n as_o ourselves_o the_o first_o be_v break_v with_o it_o because_o do_v they_o love_v god_n above_o all_o they_o will_v do_v better_o by_o their_o neighbour_n but_o i_o do_v not_o come_v here_o to_o beat_v down_o other_o pretence_n to_o charity_n but_o endeavour_v to_o advance_v charity_n in_o myself_o and_o other_o and_o the_o way_n to_o do_v this_o be_v not_o to_o reckon_v what_o other_o have_v not_o do_v according_a to_o charity_n but_o to_o call_v to_o mind_n what_o other_o have_v do_v to_o raise_v charity_n towards_o god_n and_o their_o neighbour_n we_o read_v in_o holy_a writ_n that_o moses_n love_n be_v so_o to_o god_n and_o his_o neighbour_n that_o to_o repurchase_v a_o peace_n and_o charity_n betwixt_o god_n and_o the_o people_n after_o they_o have_v offend_v he_o desire_v that_o his_o own_o name_n shall_v rather_o be_v blot_v out_o of_o the_o book_n of_o life_n than_o that_o the_o people_n name_n shall_v not_o be_v put_v in_o by_o obtain_v

to_o move_v christian_n to_o a_o perfect_a charity_n towards_o their_o neighbour_n well_o may_v a_o christian_a be_v willing_a to_o lay_v down_o his_o temporal_a life_n for_o good_a example_n sake_n rather_o than_o offend_v god_n and_o scandalize_v other_o by_o desert_v his_o faith_n since_o other_o can_v be_v willing_a to_o hazard_v their_o eternal_a life_n to_o reduce_v their_o neighbour_n to_o god_n by_o charity_n the_o like_a example_n of_o love_n to_o god_n and_o his_o neighbour_n we_o have_v in_o st._n paul_n in_o
