you_o know_v the_o story_n of_o chrysostom_n that_o preach_v many_o sermon_n to_o the_o people_n of_o antioch_n against_o swear_v and_o the_o people_n begin_v to_o be_v weary_a of_o that_o subject_a and_o ask_v he_o when_o he_o will_v leave_v preach_v against_o swear_v he_o answer_v when_o you_o leave_v swear_v i_o will_v leave_v preach_v against_o swear_v will_v you_o have_v the_o plaster_n

sword-remove_n and_o landpreserve_a doctrine_n of_o repentance_n till_o they_o have_v persuade_v all_o the_o people_n of_o england_n to_o repent_v and_o till_o god_n shall_v be_v please_v upon_o our_o

preach_v to_o the_o athenian_n to_o drive_v they_o from_o their_o old_a idolatry_n and_o superstition_n to_o which_o they_o and_o their_o forefather_n have_v be_v so_o much_o addict_v in_o the_o whole_a verse_n we_o have_v three_o part_n first_o a_o description_n of_o the_o time_n in_o which_o their_o forefather_n live_v 1._o they_o be_v time_n of_o ignorance_n but_o the_o time_n of_o this_o ignorance_n no_o wonder_v they_o be_v idolater_n for_o they_o be_v ignorant_a they_o sit_v in_o darkness_n and_o see_v no_o light_n and_o no_o wonder_n for_o a_o man_n in_o the_o dark_a to_o err_v and_o go_v astray_o a_o description_n of_o god_n carriage_n and_o behaviour_n towards_o those_o 2._o time_n and_o the_o time_n of_o this_o ignorance_n god_n wink_v at_o by_o which_o word_n you_o must_v not_o understand_v as_o if_o god_n do_v allow_v of_o their_o idolatry_n but_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a meaning_n of_o those_o word_n 1_o god_n wink_v that_o be_v god_n do_v not_o so_o severe_o punish_v your_o 1._o forefather_n that_o live_v in_o time_n of_o ignorance_n for_o their_o idolatry_n as_o he_o will_v do_v you_o that_o live_v in_o time_n of_o knowledge_n if_o you_o

christ_n for_o your_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o excuse_n for_o you_o to_o plead_v the_o example_n of_o your_o forefather_n for_o the_o time_n of_o ignorance_n god_n wink_v at_o but_o now_o god_n command_v you_o to_o repent_v of_o the_o sin_n your_o forefather_n live_v in_o here_o we_o have_v a_o description_n of_o the_o duty_n that_o god_n require_v of_o 3._o they_o and_o that_o god_n require_v of_o we_o and_o that_o god_n require_v of_o all_o man_n everywhere_o but_o now_o god_n command_v all_o man_n everywhere_o to_o repent_v but_o now_o not_o now_o exclusive_o but_o now_o eminent_o now_o rather_o than_o at_o another_o time_n now_o more_o than_o at_o another_o time_n but_o now_o god_n do_v not_o only_o entreat_v but_o he_o do_v command_v and_o he_o do_v not_o only_o command_v some_o man_n but_o he_o command_v all_o man_n and_o not_o only_o in_o some_o place_n but_o everywhere_o but_o now_o god_n command_v all_o man_n everywhere_o to_o repent_v in_o the_o word_n thus_o explain_v there_o be_v five_o observation_n i_o shall_v wave_v the_o first_o four_o and_o pitch_v only_o upon_o the_o last_o the_o first_o be_v that_o to_o live_v impenitent_o in_o time_n of_o knowledge_n be_v a_o sin_n that_o god_n 1._o will_v not_o wink_v at_o to_o be_v a_o drunkard_n or_o a_o adulterer_n or_o a_o idolater_n etc._n etc._n under_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o sin_n that_o god_n will_v never_o bear_v and_o the_o time_n of_o ignorance_n god_n wink_v at_o but_o now_o etc._n etc._n that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a blessing_n to_o a_o nation_n for_o god_n to_o send_v the_o gospel_n 2._o to_o a_o nation_n and_o the_o time_n of_o ignorance_n god_n neglect_v and_o despise_v but_o now_o god_n have_v send_v the_o gospel_n to_o you_o god_n take_v more_o care_n of_o your_o salvation_n that_o long_a prescription_n of_o time_n for_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n be_v no_o 3._o good_a argument_n to_o maintain_v idolatry_n and_o superstition_n this_o be_v the_o argument_n that_o the_o athenian_n bring_v against_o paul_n doctrine_n ver._n 18._o this_o man_n seem_v to_o be_v a_o setter_n forth_o of_o strange_a god_n he_o preach_v new_a doctrine_n that_o our_o forefather_n never_o hear_v of_o and_o therefore_o we_o will_v not_o harken_v to_o his_o doctrine_n this_o be_v the_o argument_n the_o jew_n bring_v against_o steven_n and_o his_o doctrine_n act_n 6._o 14._o we_o have_v hear_v he_o say_v that_o this_o jesus_n shall_v alter_v the_o custom_n which_o moses_n deliver_v we_o this_o be_v the_o great_a argument_n the_o papist_n use_v to_o maintain_v their_o mass-book_n their_o adoration_n of_o image_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o their_o superstition_n in_o king_n edward_n the_o sixth_n day_n when_o the_o great_a rebellion_n be_v in_o the_o west_n the_o only_a argument_n that_o be_v bring_v by_o the_o rebel_n to_o uphold_v their_o rebellion_n be_v because_o that_o king_n edward_n do_v endeavour_v to_o bring_v in_o a_o new_a way_n of_o worship_v of_o god_n which_o they_o and_o their_o forefather_n do_v not_o know_v and_o this_o be_v the_o great_a and_o only_o reason_n that_o make_v many_o poor_a and_o ignorant_a people_n to_o cry_v down_o the_o parliament_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n many_o thousand_o have_v take_v up_o arm_n to_o fight_v themselves_o into_o popery_n and_o slavery_n and_o all_o because_o they_o fear_v the_o parliament_n will_v take_v away_o their_o old_a episcopal_a government_n their_o old_a cathedral_n service_n their_o organ_n altar_n cross_n of_o their_o child_n in_o baptism_n and_o other_o such_o like_a custom_n for_o my_o part_n i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a of_o what_o dangerous_a consequence_n it_o be_v to_o alter_v and_o change_v the_o custom_n of_o a_o kingdom_n and_o i_o know_v the_o parliament_n be_v so_o wise_a as_o that_o they_o will_v not_o alter_v and_o the_o assembly_n of_o minister_n so_o judicious_a as_o that_o they_o will_v not_o advise_v they_o to_o alter_v any_o custom_n in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n but_o upon_o very_a grave_n and_o weighty_a consideration_n but_o howsoever_o this_o be_v no_o good_a argument_n because_o i_o have_v be_v accustom_v to_o come_v to_o westminster_n to_o hear_v the_o organ_n play_v and_o to_o hear_v cathedral_n service_n and_o because_o i_o myself_o be_v sign_v with_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o cross_n when_o i_o be_v baptise_v and_o because_o i_o have_v live_v all_o this_o while_n under_o episcopal_a government_n therefore_o i_o will_v take_v up_o arm_n rather_o than_o the_o parliament_n shall_v make_v i_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o any_o other_o way_n than_o i_o have_v be_v accustom_v the_o text_n confute_v this_o argument_n and_o the_o time_n of_o this_o ignorance_n god_n wink_v at_o but_o now_o command_v all_o man_n everywhere_o to_o repent_v former_a time_n be_v time_n of_o ignorance_n and_o time_n wherein_o man_n conscience_n be_v oppress_v and_o mouth_n stop_v from_o speak_v but_o now_o the_o time_n be_v time_n of_o reformation_n now_o god_n have_v give_v great_a liberty_n and_o have_v send_v a_o great_a light_n into_o the_o kingdom_n and_o now_o god_n command_v all_o man_n everywhere_o to_o repent_v that_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n minister_n they_o be_v god_n 4._o commandment_n god_n command_v all_o man_n say_v the_o text_n that_o be_v god_n by_o i_o command_n my_o
