understand_v they_o they_o afterward_o despise_v they_o and_o will_v no_o long_o believe_v they_o so_o as_o to_o mock_v and_o make_v a_o byword_n of_o what_o the_o prophet_n say_v to_o they_o even_o jeremy_n himself_o think_v he_o be_v much_o mistake_v when_o he_o see_v not_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o good_a promise_n that_o god_n have_v make_v to_o his_o people_n 10._o ah_o lord_n god_n sure_o thou_o have_v great_o deceive_v this_o people_n and_o jerusalem_n say_v you_o shall_v have_v peace_n whereas_o the_o sword_n reach_v unto_o the_o soul_n the_o same_o difficulty_n of_o not_o be_v able_a to_o comprehend_v the_o word_n of_o god_n according_a to_o our_o way_n of_o conceive_v it_o befall_v the_o very_a disciple_n of_o jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v converse_v with_o he_o they_o be_v mistake_v and_o think_v themselves_o deceive_v witness_v the_o two_o who_o after_o his_o death_n go_v to_o emmaus_n sad_a and_o without_o hope_n 21._o say_v we_o trust_v that_o it_o have_v be_v he_o who_o shall_v have_v redeem_v israel_n and_o beside_o all_o this_o to_o day_n be_v the_o three_o day_n since_o these_o thing_n be_v do_v and_o even_o when_o jesus_n christ_n ascend_v into_o heaven_n some_o ask_v he_o 6._o if_o at_o this_o time_n he_o will_v restore_v israel_n the_o holy_a spirit_n make_v many_o thing_n be_v say_v in_o another_o sense_n than_o man_n understand_v it_o as_o in_o what_o he_o make_v caiphas_n say_v 60._o concern_v jesus_n christ_n that_o it_o be_v expedient_a that_o one_o man_n shall_v die_v that_o the_o whole_a people_n perish_v not_o which_o he_o speak_v not_o of_o himself_o and_o understand_v in_o another_o manner_n and_o for_o a_o quite_o different_a end_n than_o that_o of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n thus_o we_o see_v we_o may_v be_v easy_o mistake_v by_o our_o way_n of_o understand_v the_o word_n and_o revelation_n of_o god_n they_o be_v a_o abyss_n and_o depth_n of_o spirit_n which_o our_o natural_a sense_n can_v comprehend_v we_o must_v free_v our_o mind_n from_o our_o way_n of_o conceive_a thing_n and_o place_n it_o in_o the_o liberty_n of_o a_o faith_n which_o may_v make_v it_o reckon_v its_o own_o way_n of_o conceive_v obscure_a and_o dark_a there_o we_o shall_v receive_v the_o abundance_n of_o the_o spirit_n wisdom_n and_o understanding_n proper_a for_o conceive_v aright_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o no_o man_n that_o be_v not_o spiritual_a can_v comprehend_v or_o judge_v of_o they_o be_v divine_a he_o can_v judge_v even_o reasonable_o of_o they_o and_o if_o he_o judge_v of_o they_o according_a to_o the_o outside_n he_o be_v not_o spiritual_a for_o though_o they_o be_v cover_v with_o this_o outside_n yet_o he_o can_v understand_v they_o as_o st._n paul_n say_v that_o the_o natural_a man_n do_v not_o conceive_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n 14._o for_o they_o be_v foolishness_n to_o he_o and_o he_o can_v understand_v they_o because_o they_o be_v spiritual_a but_o the_o spiritual_a man_n discern_v all_o thing_n it_o be_v a_o rashness_n therefore_o to_o give_v ourselves_o the_o liberty_n to_o treat_v of_o divine_a thing_n by_o a_o way_n of_o comprehend_v they_o natural_o when_o they_o require_v a_o discern_v that_o be_v supernatural_a to_o sense_n let_v we_o conceive_v this_o also_o by_o some_o example_n suppose_v a_o holy_a person_n see_v he_o be_v persecute_v by_o his_o enemy_n and_o god_n say_v to_o he_o i_o will_v deliver_v thou_o from_o they_o all_o see_v jer._n 1._o 19_o this_o prophecy_n may_v be_v true_a though_o his_o enemy_n kill_v he_o as_o it_o happen_v to_o that_o prophet_n therefore_o he_o who_o shall_v understand_v this_o prediction_n in_o a_o temporal_a way_n shall_v be_v deceive_v for_o god_n may_v have_v speak_v of_o the_o true_a and_o chief_a deliverance_n and_o victory_n which_o be_v salvation_n by_o which_o the_o soul_n be_v victorious_a and_o deliver_v from_o all_o its_o enemy_n in_o a_o far_o more_o true_a and_o profitable_a way_n than_o the_o temporal_a and_o outward_a deliverance_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n that_o prediction_n be_v more_o true_a and_o ample_a than_o the_o man_n will_v have_v conceive_v it_o to_o be_v if_o he_o understand_v it_o only_o for_o this_o temporal_a life_n for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v comprehend_v always_o the_o principal_a and_o most_o useful_a sense_n and_o man_n may_v understand_v they_o after_o his_o way_n according_a to_o the_o less_o principal_a sense_n and_o so_o be_v mistake_v add_v that_o if_o a_o person_n to_o who_o god_n have_v give_v such_o a_o promise_n be_v the_o head_n of_o a_o family_n or_o society_n bodily_a or_o spiritual_a the_o promise_n may_v concern_v his_o child_n or_o those_o associate_v with_o he_o bodily_a and_o may_v be_v fulfil_v in_o they_o though_o as_o to_o the_o death_n of_o the_o head_n the_o promise_n be_v annihilate_v even_o so_o if_o a_o soul_n desire_v to_o die_v a_o martyr_n for_o god_n receive_v this_o word_n from_o he_o thou_o shall_v be_v a_o martyr_n it_o may_v fall_v out_o that_o the_o person_n shall_v not_o die_v a_o martyr_n and_o yet_o the_o promise_n remain_v true_a for_o it_o will_v be_v accomplish_v according_a to_o the_o principal_a and_o essential_a part_n god_n give_v he_o the_o love_n and_o recompense_n of_o martyrdom_n make_v he_o a_o martyr_n of_o love_n give_v he_o a_o martyrdom_n lengthen_v out_o in_o labour_n the_o continuance_n of_o which_o will_v be_v more_o troublesome_a than_o death_n in_o which_o he_o will_v accomplish_v both_o the_o desire_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o his_o own_o promise_n for_o the_o desire_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o simple_o that_o kind_n of_o death_n which_o of_o itself_o will_v signify_v nothing_o without_o god_n friendship_n but_o to_o render_v to_o god_n the_o service_n and_o the_o love_n of_o a_o martyr_n the_o other_o because_o god_n will_v give_v most_o perfect_o the_o reality_n and_o recompense_n of_o this_o though_o by_o other_o mean_n god_n have_v promise_v to_o fulfil_v the_o desire_n of_o the_o righteous_a because_o their_o desire_n be_v just_a and_o true_a if_o therefore_o god_n do_v not_o fulfil_v they_o during_o this_o temporal_a life_n it_o be_v certain_a he_o will_v do_v it_o after_o this_o life_n and_o in_o a_o most_o perfect_a manner_n so_o that_o the_o promise_n do_v still_o remain_v most_o true_a the_o second_o cause_n why_o divine_a word_n and_o vision_n though_o always_o true_a in_o themselves_o yet_o nevertheless_o be_v not_o always_o certain_a as_o to_o we_o be_v because_o of_o the_o reason_n motive_n and_o ground_n upon_o which_o they_o be_v build_v since_o they_o may_v change_v the_o effect_n do_v not_o follow_v we_o must_v therefore_o believe_v that_o these_o thing_n will_v infallible_o come_v to_o pass_v so_o long_o as_o that_o shall_v remain_v which_o move_v and_o incite_v god_n for_o example_n to_o punish_v as_o if_o god_n say_v within_o a_o year_n i_o will_v send_v such_o a_o plague_n upon_o this_o kingdom_n the_o ground_n of_o this_o threaten_v be_v a_o certain_a transgression_n which_o they_o commit_v in_o this_o kingdom_n against_o god_n if_o therefore_o the_o transgression_n cease_v or_o vary_v the_o punishment_n may_v also_o cease_v or_o be_v change_v nevertheless_o the_o threaten_v be_v true_a forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v found_v on_o a_o actual_a fault_n and_o it_o will_v have_v be_v execute_v if_o the_o offence_n have_v continue_v this_o appear_v in_o what_o happen_v to_o the_o city_n of_o ninevah_n whither_o god_n send_v the_o prophet_n jonah_n to_o denounce_v from_o he_o yet_o forty_o day_n and_o ninevah_n shall_v be_v destroy_v which_o nevertheless_o be_v not_o fulfil_v because_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o threaten_v cease_v which_o be_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n who_o immediate_o repent_v otherwise_o this_o denunciation_n from_o god_n will_v certain_o have_v take_v effect_n the_o same_o thing_n as_o to_o the_o matter_n of_o divine_a threaten_v we_o see_v in_o king_n ahab_n who_o god_n threaten_v by_o the_o prophet_n elias_n with_o a_o great_a judgement_n he_o his_o house_n and_o kingdom_n but_o because_o he_o rend_v his_o garment_n with_o grief_n cover_v himself_o with_o sackcloth_n fast_v and_o lie_v in_o sackcloth_n and_o ash_n humble_v and_o afflict_a himself_o god_n immediate_o tell_v he_o by_o the_o same_o prophet_n that_o he_o will_v not_o send_v that_o evil_a in_o his_o day_n where_o we_o see_v because_o ahab_n change_v the_o threaten_v and_o sentence_n of_o god_n cease_v also_o from_o hence_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o though_o god_n reveal_v or_o speak_v affirmative_o to_o a_o soul_n any_o thing_n in_o good_a or_o evil_a concern_v itself_o or_o other_o this_o may_v change_v more_o or_o less_o or_o none_o at_o all_o
