call_v a_o kingdom_n and_o therefore_o every_o godly_a one_o shall_v be_v a_o king_n in_o heaven_n how_o come_v this_o kingdom_n by_o grace_n or_o desert_n by_o the_o only_a grace_n of_o god_n in_o

a_o good_a tree_n for_o it_o bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n these_o be_v effect_n and_o not_o cause_n moreover_o if_o christ_n will_v have_v teach_v merit_n than_o will_v he_o have_v choose_v the_o great_a and_o chief_a work_n as_o of_o his_o own_o worship_n in_o the_o first_o table_n else_o some_o might_n just_o complain_v that_o they_o be_v not_o reward_v according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o their_o good_a work_n have_v yield_v a_o great_a obedience_n to_o the_o first_o table_n than_o other_o why_o then_o do_v christ_n choose_v those_o work_n of_o the_o second_o table_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 that_o work_n be_v visible_a and_o faith_n invisible_a and_o for_o that_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 why_o do_v christ_n here_o use_v so_o long_a a_o catalogue_n of_o these_o work_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 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 when_o they_o do_v any_o of_o they_o to_o the_o poor_a than_o they_o do_v it_o unto_o he_o what_o gather_v you_o of_o this_o that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a honour_n to_o lodge_v angel_n at_o unaware_o in_o stead_n of_o stranger_n but_o this_o be_v a_o far_o more_o excellent_a
