be_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o of_o grace_n second_o it_o be_v give_v to_o we_o as_o to_o heir_n not_o as_o the_o wage_n of_o a_o servant_n which_o common_o deserve_v more_o than_o a_o son_n three_o it_o be_v prepare_v for_o we_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o be_v of_o the_o mere_a love_n of_o god_n and_o not_o of_o merit_n q._n so_o much_o of_o the_o

clothe_v he_o when_o he_o be_v sick_a and_o in_o prison_n they_o visit_v he_o q._n do_v not_o this_o reason_n plain_o strengthen_v the_o doctrine_n of_o merit_n a._n not_o so_o see_v for_o import_v not_o here_o the_o for._n for._n cause_n but_o the_o effect_n as_o we_o say_v summer_n be_v come_v for_o flower_n do_v spring_n and_o it_o be_v a_o good_a tree_n for_o it_o bring_v forth_o good_a

obedience_n to_o the_o first_o table_n than_o other_o q._n why_o then_o do_v christ_n choose_v those_o work_n of_o the_o second_o table_n a._n because_o they_o be_v most_o manifest_a to_o the_o world_n follow_v therein_o the_o custom_n of_o earthly_a judge_n who_o insist_v most_o upon_o plain_a proof_n either_o to_o convince_v the_o guilty_a or_o clear_v the_o innocent_a so_o christ_n pronounce_v his_o sentence_n rather_o according_a to_o work_n then_o to_o faith_n and_o those_o of_o the_o second_o table_n rather_o than_o of_o the_o first_o because_o work_n be_v more_o visible_a than_o faith_n and_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o play_v the_o hypocrite_n in_o the_o obedience_n of_o the_o first_o table_n then_o of_o the_o second_o q._n why_o do_v christ_n here_o use_v so_o long_a a_o catalogue_n of_o these_o work_n a._n to_o teach_v we_o to_o exercise_v mercy_n in_o all_o those_o duty_n and_o not_o content_v ourselves_o with_o any_o one_o of_o they_o q._n how_o can_v they_o do_v these_o thing_n unto_o christ_n who_o most_o of_o they_o do_v never_o see_v a._n when_o they_o do_v any_o of_o they_o to_o his_o poor_a member_n 41._o mat._n 25._o 41._o than_o they_o do_v it_o unto_o
