people_n who_o dishonour_n god_n so_o much_o in_o these_o two_o first_o they_o dishonour_v he_o in_o eat_v so_o do_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n when_o they_o require_v meat_n for_o their_o lust_n psal_n 78.19_o and_o therefore_o while_o the_o flesh_n be_v yet_o between_o their_o tooth_n before_o it_o be_v chew_v god_n wrath_n be_v kindle_v against_o they_o as_o numb_a 11.33_o second_o they_o

doct._n for_o a_o call_n be_v a_o particular_a kind_n of_o life_n impose_v upon_o man_n by_o god_n for_o the_o common_a good_a and_o in_o every_o call_n two_o thing_n must_v be_v consider_v the_o author_n and_o the_o end_n the_o author_n of_o every_o honest_a and_o lawful_a call_n be_v god_n so_o the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 7.17_o as_o god_n have_v call_v every_o man_n so_o let_v he_o walk_v the_o end_n of_o every_o
lawful_a call_n be_v the_o common_a good_a as_o member_n for_o the_o common_a good_a of_o the_o body_n be_v it_o politic_a or_o natural_a therefore_o many_o persuade_v themselves_o that_o they_o have_v lawful_a calling_n when_o they_o have_v none_o such_o as_o live_v by_o usury_n card_v dice_a play_v these_o have_v neither_o the_o author_n god_n nor_o the_o end_n the_o common_a good_a now_o in_o the_o right_a use_n of_o a_o calling_n consider_v four_o thing_n first_o that_o they_o make_v choice_n of_o a_o call_n which_o be_v lawful_a and_o honest_a second_o that_o they_o make_v choice_n of_o a_o call_n which_o be_v fit_a for_o they_o and_o they_o for_o it_o rhâ—tori_n epist_n endoxio_n rhâ—tori_n nazianzene_n report_v of_o the_o athenian_n that_o when_o their_o youth_n come_v to_o

succeed_v which_o we_o undertake_v by_o nature_n guidance_n three_o he_o that_o be_v fit_v for_o many_o must_v make_v choice_n of_o the_o best_a be_v thou_o call_v be_v a_o servant_n care_v not_o for_o it_o that_o be_v though_o thy_o call_n be_v mean_a and_o hard_o yet_o shake_v it_o not_o off_o but_o bear_v it_o patient_o 1_o cor._n 7.21_o four_o leave_v it_o not_o without_o good_a warrant_n but_o i_o hasten_v to_o my_o conclusion_n let_v every_o man_n examine_v his_o call_n at_o the_o apostle_n rule_v 1_o cor._n 7.24_o let_v every_o man_n wherein_o he_o as_o call_v walk_v with_o god_n no_o calling_n be_v lawful_a when_o the_o action_n please_v not_o god_n as_o 1_o cor._n 10.31_o by_o this_o i_o hope_v some_o will_v learn_v at_o last_o to_o give_v over_o their_o call_n whereby_o they_o bring_v not_o honour_n but_o dishonour_n unto_o god_n those_o that_o live_v upon_o usury_n by_o dice_a house_n by_o pen_v and_o act_v of_o play_n let_v they_o all_o remember_v this_o my_o
