armour_n of_o god_n we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o resist_v the_o devil_n for_o what_o power_n be_v therein_o a_o subject_a to_o resist_v a_o prince_n what_o strength_n be_v in_o weak_a flesh_n to_o withstand_v a_o mighty_a spirit_n what_o wisdom_n be_v there_o in_o a_o foolish_a man_n to_o countervail_v the_o subtle_a serpent_n but_o if_o we_o be_v arm_v with_o the_o armour_n of_o god_n and_o

12._o he_o be_v in_o this_o battle_n and_o pray_v for_o aid_n my_o grace_n be_v sufficient_a for_o thou_o and_o he_o have_v experience_n that_o it_o be_v so_o say_v i_o be_o able_a to_o do_v all_o

the_o church_n and_o speak_v of_o common_a christian_n say_v he_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n overcome_v 4_o 1._o joh._n 5._o 4_o the_o world_n if_o we_o read_v the_o scripture_n we_o shall_v see_v what_o great_a temptation_n the_o servant_n of_o god_n have_v overcome_v by_o grace_n as_o moses_n joseph_n job_n daniel_n and_o other_o we_o must_v be_v like_o the_o people_n of_o civiensis_n who_o when_o the_o ambassador_n of_o brutus_n will_v have_v they_o deliver_v their_o city_n unto_o he_o return_v his_o answer_n tell_v your_o captain_n brutus_n our_o ancestor_n have_v leave_v we_o weapon_n to_o defend_v ourselves_o and_o our_o city_n so_o when_o the_o devil_n tempt_v we_o to_o yield_v ourselves_o to_o he_o let_v we_o answer_v our_o god_n have_v leave_v we_o weapon_n to_o defend_v ourselves_o from_o he_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v be_v able_a to_o stand_v upright_o against_o the_o temptation_n of_o the_o devil_n let_v we_o hear_v read_v pray_v and_o every_o way_n labour_n to_o furnish_v ourselves_o with_o knowledge_n faith_n hope_n truth_n justice_n mercy_n love_n humilytie_n patience_n meekness_n and_o all_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o let_v we_o know_v this_o be_v none_o of_o the_o least_o of_o satan_n temptation_n to_o persuade_v man_n they_o may_v do_v well_o enough_o without_o they_o or_o with_o some_o though_o they_o seek_v not_o for_o all_o of_o they_o and_o to_o think_v that_o those_o that_o have_v they_o do_v no_o great_a matter_n with_o they_o how_o great_a a_o temptation_n of_o the_o devil_n in_o the_o person_n of_o a_o woman_n do_v joseph_n 39_o gen._n 39_o overcome_v by_o grace_n when_o number_n with_o far_o less_o inticemente_n be_v carry_v to_o adultery_n how_o great_a a_o temptation_n do_v the_o three_o child_n overcome_v by_o grace_n 3._o dan._n 3._o when_o thousand_o be_v for_o want_v of_o grace_n carry_v to_o idolatrye_a as_o one_o say_v this_o prove_v not_o a_o man_n a_o innocent_a because_o he_o be_v not_o accuse_v but_o be_v accuse_v he_o be_v able_a also_o to_o clear_v himself_o so_o it_o prove_v not_o a_o man_n a_o christian_n that_o he_o be_v not_o tempt_v but_o be_v tempt_v he_o be_v able_a to_o overcome_v therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n put_v on_o the_o whole_a armour_n of_o god_n that_o you_o may_v be_v able_a to_o resist_v as_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n do_v enable_v we_o to_o withstand_v the_o devil_n in_o his_o temptation_n so_o we_o must_v put_v forth_o our_o strength_n and_o resist_v he_o when_o peter_n have_v say_v ●_o 1._o pet._n ●_o your_o adversary_n the_o devil_n go_v about_o like_o a_o roar_a lion_n seek_v who_o he_o may_v devour_v he_o add_v who_o resist_v steadfast_o in_o the_o faith_n james_n say_v resist_v 4._o jam._n 4._o the_o devil_n and_o he_o will_v fly_v from_o you_o some_o to_o excuse_v their_o fall_n say_v the_o temptation_n be_v so_o strong_a that_o it_o be_v unpossible_a to_o withstand_v it_o it_o may_v be_v it_o be_v unpossible_a for_o a_o unarmed_a

stand_v we_o upon_o life_n and_o death_n to_o resist_v the_o devil_n but_o some_o man_n may_v ask_v how_o we_o shall_v do_v it_o i_o answer_v our_o resistance_n must_v be_v spiritual_a as_o our_o enemy_n be_v spiritual_a it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o say_v i_o defy_v the_o devil_n as_o some_o think_v but_o if_o we_o will_v resist_v the_o devil_n we_o must_v resist_v sin_n what_o sin_n soever_o it_o be_v that_o we_o be_v tempt_v to_o whether_o against_o the_o first_o table_n or_o the_o second_o table_n of_o the_o law_n whether_o it_o be_v against_o god_n direct_o as_o idolitry_n blasphemy_n

direct_o or_o indirect_o if_o it_o be_v ask_v how_o we_o shall_v resist_v sin_n i_o answer_v i_o resist_v the_o motion_n unto_o it_o within_o and_o the_o persuasion_n and_o occasion_n unto_o it_o without_o resist_v it_o in_o judgement_n and_o say_v with_o ourselves_o the_o devil_n stir_v up_o my_o corrupt_a nature_n in_o my_o hart_n or_o stir_v up_o such_o a_o man_n or_o such_o a_o woman_n to_o persuade_v i_o to_o such_o or_o such_o a_o evil_a thing_n i_o may_v not_o do_v it_o resist_v it_o in_o affection_n such_o a_o thing_n that_o the_o devil_n or_o his_o instrument_n will_v draw_v i_o unto_o be_v evil_n i_o wisl_v not_o do_v it_o resist_v it_o in_o conversation_n such_o a_o thing_n that_o the_o devil_n persuade_v i_o to_o be_v evil_a i_o will_v have_v no_o hand_n i_o will_v have_v no_o finger_n in_o it_o i_o will_v stop_v my_o ear_n from_o hear_v of_o it_o i_o will_v shut_v my_o mouth_n from_o defend_v it_o i_o will_v turn_v away_o my_o foot_n from_o follow_v it_o some_o may_v ask_v how_o a_o man_n shall_v know_v the_o temptation_n of_o the_o devil_n from_o the_o corrupt_a motion_n of_o our_o own_o nature_n i_o answer_v there_o be_v such_o a_o affinity_n &_o likeness_n between_o they_o as_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o distinguish_v they_o therefore_o the_o safe_a way_n be_v to_o think_v that_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o both_o these_o enemy_n at_o once_o and_o so_o to_o be_v the_o more_o strengthen_v against_o they_o but_o for_o a_o difference_n let_v we_o know_v when_o all_o evil_a motion_n to_o any_o sin_n be_v raise_v if_o spiritual_a force_n be_v add_v to_o draw_v we_o or_o spiritual_a subtlety_n to_o persuade_v we_o which_o be_v two_o property_n of_o the_o divelles_n nature_n let_v we_o think_v beside_o our_o own_o corruption_n which_o be_v the_o broker_n the_o devil_n himself_o be_v present_a &_o be_v the_o provoker_n let_v we_o resist_v the_o first_o corrupt_a motion_n of_o our_o nature_n which_o the_o apostle_n seem_v to_o call_v the_o 12_o 2._o cor._n 12_o messenger_n of_o satan_n as_o he_o say_v to_o the_o collossian_o mortify_v your_o earthly_a member_n 3._o col._n 3._o if_o we_o make_v such_o fair_a war_n with_o these_o spiritual_a enemy_n and_o kill_v they_o not_o as_o many_o do_v we_o shall_v have_v foul_a hand_n with_o they_o and_o let_v we_o resist_v the_o devil_n who_o will_v double_v and_o enforce_v those_o suggestion_n by_o what_o reason_n or_o persuasion_n soever_o he_o do_v it_o that_o all_o the_o power_n of_o hell_n may_v not_o
prevail_v against_o we_o and_o to_o this_o end_n let_v we_o know_v as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n say_v to_o his_o disciple_n you_o have_v need_n of_o patience_n so_o we_o have_v need_n of_o knowledge_n of_o faith_n of_o hope_n of_o love_n and_o other_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o satan_n will_v not_o only_o assault_v we_o but_o perhaps_o continue_v his_o siege_n &_o battery_n a_o day_n a_o week_n a_o month_n and_o give_v we_o no_o respite_n and_o though_o he_o will_v sound_v the_o retreat_n and_o depart_v sometime_o for_o a_o season_n as_o saint_n luke_n 4._o luk._n 4._o say_v yet_o he_o will_v return_v again_o perhaps_o another_o way_n and_o set_v upon_o we_o by_o some_o other_o mean_n therefore_o arm_v yourselves_o say_v the_o apostle_n and_o resist_v he_o and_o if_o this_o battle_n seem_v hard_a and_o tedious_a unto_o we_o remember_v in_o what_o cause_n we_o fight_v and_o for_o what_o crown_n our_o saviour_n christ_n say_v in_o the_o revelation_n he_o that_o overcome_v shall_v inherit_v great_a and_o glorious_a thing_n and_o paul_n say_v the_o saint_n shall_v judge_v the_o angel_n that_o be_v the_o deville_n paul_n say_v to_o 6._o 1._o cor._n
