skill_v what_o be_v pure_a what_o not_o either_o in_o doctrine_n life_n or_o manner_n and_o then_o know_v that_o let_v we_o care_n and_o study_v to_o be_v pure_a and_o sincere_a and_o without_o all_o

without_o stumble_v or_o slip_a ba●ke_n or_o stand_v at_o a_o stay_n until_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n when_o their_o constant_a perseverance_n shall_v be_v reward_v for_o the_o apostle_n desire_n be_v 1._o that_o they_o may_v be_v able_a to_o discern_v thing_n that_o differ_v what_o be_v corrupt_a and_o bad_a and_o what_o be_v pure_a and_o good_a 2._o that_o be_v able_a to_o discern_v and_o

they_o may_v keep_v a_o constant_a course_n in_o their_o purity_n without_o stumble_v or_o shrink_v back_o or_o stand_v at_o a_o stay_n and_o for_o these_o cause_n he_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v abound_v more_o and_o more_o in_o knowledge_n etc._n etc._n whence_o i_o observe_v a_o three_o employment_n very_o behooveful_a for_o all_o christian_n namely_o that_o be_v in_o a_o good_a course_n they_o hold_v on_o without_o stumble_v or_o stand_v or_o shrink_v be_v pure_a and_o clear_a from_o all_o leaven_n of_o corruption_n they_o keep_v themselves_o so_o until_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n be_v you_o so_o foolish_a say_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o galathian_o that_o after_o you_o have_v begin_v in_o the_o spirit_n 3.3_o gal._n 3.3_o you_o will_v now_o be_v make_v perfect_a by_o the_o flesh_n the_o galathian_o have_v embrace_v the_o gospel_n and_o obey_v the_o truth_n but_o now_o through_o certain_a false_a apostle_n they_o have_v fall_v from_o the_o pure_a doctrine_n of_o christ_n and_o admit_v some_o corruption_n of_o that_o doctrine_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n reprove_v they_o sharp_o and_o tell_v they_o that_o it_o be_v no_o course_n for_o a_o christian_n to_o begin_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o to_o end_v in_o the_o flesh_n but_o have_v begin_v in_o the_o spirit_n by_o embrace_v the_o pure_a doctrine_n of_o jesus_n christ_n they_o shall_v end_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o hold_v fast_o that_o pure_a doctrine_n which_o they_o have_v embrace_v even_o until_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o have_v obey_v the_o truth_n we_o be_v not_o to_o yield_v to_o any_o corruption_n of_o the_o truth_n or_o to_o let_v our_o hold_n slip_v but_o to_o hold_v fast_o the_o same_o unto_o the_o end_n it_o be_v for_o the_o dog_n to_o return_v to_o his_o own_o vomit_n and_o for_o the_o sow_n that_o be_v wash_v to_o return_v to_o she_o wallow_v in_o the_o mire_n but_o the_o man_n that_o have_v put_v his_o hand_n to_o the_o plough_n look_v back_o 9.62_o luk._n 9.62_o he_o be_v not_o apt_a to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v in_o a_o good_a way_n we_o must_v with_o our_o apostle_n still_o endeavour_n to_o that_o which_o be_v before_o and_o follow_v hard_a

be_v call_v the_o fruit_n of_o righteousness_n for_o this_o show_v that_o the_o very_a matter_n and_o substance_n of_o good_a work_n be_v those_o good_a action_n which_o as_o good_a fruit_n grow_v and_o spring_v out_o of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o us._n the_o formal_a cause_n or_o reason_n which_o cause_v our_o work_n to_o be_v good_a work_n be_v hereby_o likewise_o know_v that_o they_o be_v call_v the_o fruit_n of_o righteousness_n for_o this_o show_v that_o the_o reason_n why_o our_o work_n be_v good_a work_n be_v because_o of_o their_o conformity_n unto_o the_o law_n of_o god_n because_o they_o be_v do_v in_o righteousness_n according_a to_o the_o righteous_a law_n of_o god_n the_o efficient_a cause_n or_o author_n from_o who_o good_a work_n be_v be_v hereby_o know_v that_o it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o be_v by_o jesus_n christ_n for_o this_o show_v that_o jesus_n christ_n work_v in_o we_o whatsoever_o work_n be_v good_a &_o agreeable_a to_o the_o righteous_a

glory_n and_o praise_n of_o god_n that_o his_o name_n thereby_o may_v be_v glorify_v these_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o these_o word_n seem_v unto_o i_o to_o contain_v now_o let_v we_o see_v what_o observation_n we_o may_v gather_v hence_o for_o our_o far_a use_n and_o instruction_n the_o first_o thing_n then_o which_o here_o i_o note_v be_v the_o rich_a grace_n wherewith_o our_o apostle_n will_v have_v the_o philippian_n to_o abound_v in_o good_a work_n for_o he_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v abound_v more_o and_o more_o in_o knowledge_n and_o in_o all_o judgement_n as_o for_o other_o end_v before_o speak_v of_o so_o for_o this_o that_o they_o may_v be_v fill_v with_o the_o fruit_n of_o righteousness_n that_o they_o may_v abound_v in_o every_o good_a work_n my_o observation_n hence_o be_v that_o we_o be_v not_o only_o to_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a and_o to_o work_v the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n but_o we_o be_v to_o abound_v in_o every_o good_a work_n to_o be_v fill_v with_o the_o fruit_n of_o righteousness_n to_o do_v good_a and_o to_o have_v our_o fruit_n in_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n be_v a_o thing_n much_o urge_v and_o often_o command_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o scripture_n and_o it_o be_v so_o clear_a a_o case_n that_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v or_o shift_v but_o that_o we_o be_v to_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a &_o to_o work_v the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n yet_o so_o cunning_a be_v we_o to_o deceive_v ourselves_o that_o if_o at_o sometime_o we_o have_v do_v some_o thing_n well_o we_o think_v we_o have_v obey_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n herein_o though_o we_o come_v far_o short_a of_o be_v fill_v with_o the_o the_o fruit_n of_o righteousness_n the_o holy_a ghost_n therefore_o to_o meet_v with_o our_o foolish_a wisdom_n and_o to_o clear_v the_o point_n plain_o show_v in_o many_o place_n of_o the_o scripture_n that_o as_o we_o be_v to_o show_v forth_o good_a work_n so_o we_o be_v to_o

the_o dead_a which_o i_o note_v out_o of_o this_o that_o he_o say_v who_o shall_v change_v to_o wit_n in_o that_o day_n when_o he_o shall_v come_v from_o whence_o they_o look_v for_o he_o 5._o the_o manner_n how_o he_o shall_v then_o glorify_v our_o vile_a body_n namely_o not_o by_o change_v the_o substance_n of_o our_o body_n in_o the_o form_n or_o feature_n or_o lineament_n or_o member_n of_o they_o but_o by_o change_v our_o vile_a body_n i_o our_o bodie●_n which_o be_v create_v of_o god_n holy_a and_o good_a but_o be_v now_o de●●led_v with_o our_o vileness_n by_o change_v these_o vile_a body_n and_o fashion_v they_o in_o quality_n like_a unto_o his_o own_o glorious_a body_n so_o that_o of_o mortal_a they_o become_v immortal_a of_o corruptible_a incorruptible_a of_o natural_a spiritual_a of_o weak_a glorious_a 6._o and_o last_o the_o mean_n whereby_o he_o shall_v thus_o glorify_v our_o vile_a body_n namely_o by_o that_o divine_a power_n and_o effectual_a work_n whereby_o he_o raise_v his_o own_o body_n from_o the_o grave_n and_o whereby_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v what_o he_o will_v even_o to_o subdue_v all_o thing_n unto_o himself_o these_o be_v the_o particular_a circumstance_n of_o this_o three_o branch_n of_o the_o apostle_n reason_n which_o note_v of_o they_o in_o this_o sort_n that_o we_o have_v do_v may_v serve_v also_o for_o the_o explication_n and_o open_n of_o the_o meaning_n of_o these_o word_n let_v we_o now_o therefore_o see_v what_o profitable_a note_n we_o may_v gather_v hence_o for_o our_o far_a use_n and_o instruction_n the_o first_o thing_n which_o i_o note_n be_v who_o it_o be_v that_o shall_v change_v our_o vile_a body_n that_o they_o may_v be_v fashion_v like_o unto_o his_o glorious_a body_n which_o be_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o observation_n then_o hence_o be_v that_o after_o we_o have_v sleep_v in_o the_o dust_n christ_n jesus_n shall_v raise_v we_o again_o by_o his_o power_n and_o make_v our_o vile_a body_n like_v to_o his_o glorious_a body_n he_o it_o be_v that_o be_v one_o god_n with_o the_o father_n from_o before_o all_o beginning_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o time_n create_v we_o form_v we_o and_o make_v

of_o god_n by_o the_o everlasting_a son_n of_o the_o father_n and_o without_o it_o be_v make_v nothing_o that_o be_v make_v and_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o by_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v all_o

of_o time_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o redeem_v they_o which_o be_v under_o the_o law_n and_o to_o save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n when_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n be_v come_v

shall_v raise_v our_o body_n out_o of_o the_o dust_n and_o make_v they_o like_v unto_o his_o glorious_a body_n 5.28.29_o joh._n 5.28.29_o for_o the_o hour_n shall_v come_v say_v john_n in_o the_o which_o all_o that_o be_v in_o the_o grave_n shall_v hear_v his_o voice_n and_o they_o shall_v come_v forth_o that_o have_v do_v good_a unto_o the_o resurrection_n of_o life_n but_o they_o that_o
