of_o the_o difference_n of_o day_n and_o meat_n or_o if_o at_o any_o time_n they_o neglect_v or_o omit_v they_o they_o do_v it_o with_o a_o weak_a consent_n and_o a_o doubt_a conscience_n hereupon_o those_o that_o well_o understand_v the_o christian_a liberty_n despise_v those_o other_o and_o use_v the_o liberty_n of_o certain_a meat_n whereby_o they_o be_v a_o offence_n unto_o those_o weak_a once_o and_o of_o the_o other_o side_n the_o weak_a sort_n condemn_v the_o rest_n as_o profane_a man_n and_o contemner_n of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n s._n paul_n therefore_o a_o servant_n of_o christ_n by_o his_o condition_n and_o a_o apostle_n call_v of_o god_n by_o dignity_n as_o he_o witness_v of_o he_o rom._n 1.1_o 1.1_o rom._n 1.1_o se_fw-la commendando_fw-la say_v one_o non_fw-la ad_fw-la ostensionem_fw-la sed_fw-la ad_fw-la reprimendam_fw-la romanorum_fw-la superbiam_fw-la &_o arrogantiam_fw-la commend_v himself_o thus_o not_o in_o vaunt_v or_o vain_a brag_a sort_n to_o show_v thereby_o vain_a glory_n but_o to_o repress_v the_o arrogancy_n and_o pride_n of_o the_o roman_n to_o who_o he_o then_o write_v as_o contemn_v his_o office_n and_o apostleship_n this_o apostle_n i_o say_v to_o both_o these_o forenamed_a evil_n add_v wise_o a_o sufficient_a remedy_n first_o by_o exhort_v those_o that_o be_v strong_a to_o entreat_v those_o with_o brotherly_a love_n that_o be_v more_o weak_a lest_o they_o shall_v by_o contemn_v they_o discomfort_n and_o discourage_v they_o in_o or_o withdraw_v and_o turn_v they_o from_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n second_o he_o give_v commandment_n unto_o both_o how_o they_o shall_v behave_v themselves_o one_o towards_o another_o neither_o of_o they_o contemn_v or_o condemn_v the_o other_o but_o to_o use_v a_o good_a conscience_n one_o towards_o another_o concern_v the_o use_n of_o those_o indifferent_a thing_n as_o the_o difference_n of_o meat_n and_o observe_v of_o day_n in_o the_o next_o place_n he_o add_v a_o new_a reason_n draw_v from_o the_o end_n which_o both_o of_o they_o propose_v unto_o themselves_o which_o be_v to_o the_o honour_n of_o christ_n which_o appear_v as_o he_o prove_v by_o this_o that_o both_o of_o they_o the_o one_o in_o regard_v the_o other_o in_o not_o regard_v a_o day_n do_v it_o unto_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o one_o in_o eat_v the_o other_o in_o not_o eat_v do_v it_o likewise_o unto_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v as_o if_o it_o have_v be_v say_v utrique_fw-la christo_fw-la gratias_fw-la agunt_fw-la both_o of_o they_o give_v thanks_n to_o god_n and_o therefore_o he_o conclude_v that_o argument_n see_v the_o end_n of_o both_o be_v one_o therefore_o for_o these_o indifferent_a thing_n neither_o of_o they_o shall_v contemn_v or_o condemn_v the_o other_o last_o to_o come_v home_o to_o our_o text_n he_o confirm_v that_o his_o reason_n thus_o draw_v from_o the_o end_n of_o both_o their_o action_n by_o another_o argument_n draw_v from_o the_o common_a and_o general_a end_n of_o the_o life_n of_o christian_n which_o be_v whole_o appoint_v and_o consecrate_v for_o the_o manifestation_n of_o god_n glory_n and_o this_o he_o amplify_v again_o by_o a_o even_o confer_v or_o compare_v of_o two_o contrary_n as_o when_o he_o say_v none_o of_o we_o live_v nor_o die_v to_o himself_o but_o live_v we_o live_v and_o die_v we_o die_v unto_o the_o lord_n last_o of_o all_o he_o amplify_v again_o that_o comparison_n of_o those_o contrary_n by_o a_o addition_n wherein_o he_o conclude_v that_o all_o both_o great_a and_o small_a both_o high_a and_o low_a both_o rich_a and_o poor_a both_o weak_a and_o strong_a both_o in_o our_o life_n and_o in_o our_o death_n be_v in_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o say_v whether_o we_o live_v or_o die_v we_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o thus_o of_o the_o analysis_n now_o before_o i_o proceed_v to_o the_o deduction_n of_o doctrine_n from_o these_o particular_n give_v i_o leave_v i_o beseech_v you_o to_o stay_v a_o little_a in_o the_o explication_n of_o two_o thing_n in_o this_o my_o text_n most_o necessary_a to_o be_v know_v the_o one_o what_o it_o be_v to_o live_v unto_o the_o lord_n the_o other_o what_o it_o be_v to_o die_v unto_o the_o lord_n and_o wherein_o both_o of_o these_o consist_v to_o live_v unto_o the_o lord_n say_v learned_a aurelius_n be_v non_fw-la propter_fw-la nosmetipsos_fw-la nostráque_fw-la commoda_fw-la sed_fw-la christo_fw-la vivere_fw-la that_o be_v not_o for_o ourselves_o nor_o for_o our_o advantage_n but_o to_o christ_n and_o to_o live_v thus_o unto_o the_o lord_n consist_v in_o four_o thing_n the_o first_o be_v to_o recognize_v and_o acknowledge_v this_o our_o lord_n christ_n in_o our_o life_n namely_o that_o we_o be_v not_o at_o our_o own_o liberty_n and_o freedom_n but_o servant_n unto_o christ_n and_o in_o subjection_n unto_o the_o lord_n in_o so_o much_o that_o the_o end_n of_o our_o vocation_n and_o redemption_n be_v to_o serve_v the_o live_a god_n as_o the_o apostle_n witness_v 1._o thes_n 1.9_o 1.9_o 1._o thes_n 1.9_o where_o he_o say_v unto_o they_o you_o have_v turn_v to_o god_n from_o idol_n to_o serve_v the_o live_n and_o true_a god_n and_o in_o 1._o cor._n 6.19_o 20._o 20._o 1._o cor._n 6.19_o 20._o the_o same_o apostle_n say_v you_o be_v not_o your_o own_o for_o you_o be_v buy_v with_o a_o price_n therefore_o glorify_v god_n in_o your_o body_n and_o in_o your_o spirit_n which_o be_v go_n second_o to_o live_v unto_o the_o lord_n be_v to_o order_n and_o submit_v all_o our_o life_n and_o action_n unto_o his_o only_a beck_n for_o because_o he_o only_o out_o of_o the_o bottomless_a depth_n of_o his_o own_o bounty_n reach_v unto_o we_o whatsoever_o gift_n we_o have_v whether_o of_o the_o body_n or_o the_o mind_n whether_o of_o nature_n or_o of_o grace_n for_o all_o thing_n as_o the_o apostle_n witness_v rom._n 11.36_o be_v of_o god_n through_o god_n 11.36_o rom._n 11.36_o and_o for_o god_n which_o place_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v worthy_a a_o little_a to_o be_v stand_v upon_o because_o in_o these_o word_n be_v note_v unto_o we_o the_o trinity_n of_o person_n and_o their_o distinctive_a property_n of_o cause_v first_o he_o show_v here_o that_o god_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o thing_n in_o a_o threefold_a kind_n of_o cause_v second_o he_o show_v how_o first_o that_o god_n be_v the_o efficient_a cause_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o power_n by_o which_o he_o create_v all_o thing_n second_o that_o he_o be_v the_o form_v cause_n of_o all_o thing_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o wisdom_n whereby_o he_o dispose_v and_o distinguish_v all_o thing_n three_o he_o be_v the_o final_a cause_n of_o all_o thing_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o goodness_n whereby_o he_o reconcile_v all_o thing_n unto_o himself_o and_o do_v still_o preserve_v and_o conserve_v they_o direct_v they_o unto_o their_o proper_a end_n therefore_o when_o he_o say_v all_o thing_n be_v of_o god_n he_o understand_v the_o father_n to_o who_o power_n belong_v when_o he_o say_v all_o thing_n be_v through_o god_n he_o understand_v the_o son_n that_o be_v the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o father_n when_o he_o say_v all_o thing_n be_v for_o god_n he_o understand_v the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o in_o respect_n of_o clemency_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o conserver_n preserver_n and_o direct_a of_o all_o thing_n to_o the_o best_a three_o to_o live_v unto_o the_o lord_n be_v to_o refer_v the_o whole_a course_n of_o our_o life_n to_o the_o extol_n of_o god_n glory_n as_o to_o the_o chief_a mark_n whereunto_o we_o aim_v he_o therefore_o that_o be_v of_o god_n aught_o to_o walk_v as_o christ_n walk_v 2.6_o 1._o joh._n 2.6_o 1._o joh._n 2.6_o that_o be_v he_o must_v walk_v in_o the_o step_n of_o christ_n follow_v his_o virtue_n and_o observe_v his_o law_n for_o he_o that_o do_v otherwise_o do_v vain_o take_v his_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v call_v a_o christian_a to_o his_o great_a condemnation_n hence_o be_v that_o of_o christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n say_v why_o call_v you_o i_o master_n master_n and_o do_v not_o the_o thing_n that_o i_o speak_v and_o in_o another_o place_n if_o i_o be_v a_o father_n where_o be_v my_o honour_n if_o i_o be_v a_o master_n where_o be_v my_o fear_n four_o and_o last_o to_o live_v unto_o the_o lord_n be_v in_o all_o painful_a labour_n and_o heaviness_n of_o mind_n in_o our_o misery_n and_o careful_a infelicity_n to_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n as_o one_o that_o care_v sufficient_o for_o they_o that_o be_v his_o people_n as_o you_o may_v plain_o see_v in_o levit._n 26._o from_o vers_n 3._o to_o vers_fw-la 13._o 13._o leu._n 26.3_o to_o 13._o saying_n if_o you_o trust_v in_o i_o and_o keep_v my_o commandment_n i_o will_v give_v you_o rain_n in_o due_a season_n i_o will_v give_v you_o peace_n i_o will_v chase_v your_o enemy_n
