how_o they_o set_v up_o their_o own_o rule_n above_o god_n rule_n which_o be_v a_o provocation_n to_o christ_n and_o he_o will_v not_o bear_v with_o such_o you_o may_v read_v the_o second_o and_o

withdraw_v his_o special_a presence_n from_o a_o people_n that_o shall_v set_v up_o their_o own_o invention_n for_o it_o be_v a_o mighty_a provocation_n to_o christ_n first_o of_o all_o when_o a_o

so_o much_o violence_n and_o many_o time_n it_o be_v so_o that_o they_o which_o do_v most_o exalt_v their_o own_o tradition_n they_o become_v very_o zealous_a in_o persecute_v the_o saint_n and_o

the_o flesh_n the_o flesh_n will_v be_v zealous_a for_o now_o all_o tradition_n they_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o flesh_n they_o be_v the_o offspring_n of_o man_n own_o brain_n and_o therefore_o upon_o that_o account_n man_n be_v many_o time_n very_o zealous_a for_o they_o to_o the_o persecute_v of_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n now_o upon_o this_o account_n the_o lord_n christ_n will_v not_o afford_v his_o presence_n with_o such_o as_o lay_v aside_o his_o rule_n for_o they_o many_o time_n prove_v the_o great_a persecuter_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o people_n four_o christ_n will_v not_o continue_v and_o afford_v his_o presence_n with_o such_o a_o people_n as_o set_v up_o their_o own_o invention_n and_o tradition_n in_o the_o place_n of_o god_n rule_n because_o they_o do_v arrogate_v that_o to_o

to_o christ_n to_o give_v a_o rule_n for_o his_o people_n to_o walk_v by_o and_o therefore_o when_o man_n shall_v set_v up_o their_o rule_n in_o the_o place_n of_o christ_n rule_n what_o do_v they_o but_o take_v the_o place_n of_o christ_n the_o office_n of_o christ_n and_o turn_v christ_n out_o of_o his_o office_n and_o set_v themselves_o in_o christ_n chair_n now_o this_o be_v a_o great_a

in_o the_o place_n of_o christ_n rule_n for_o the_o most_o part_n they_o place_v their_o righteousness_n in_o those_o very_a tradition_n of_o their_o own_o which_o be_v a_o great_a provocation_n unto_o christ_n for_o you_o may_v observe_v this_o in_o the_o pharisee_n they_o that_o be_v so_o zealous_a for_o their_o own_o invention_n and_o will_v not_o submit_v to_o the_o rule_n of_o christ_n they_o will_v not_o submit_v to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n but_o they_o place_v their_o righteousness_n in_o their_o tradition_n in_o their_o invention_n a_o kind_n of_o voluntary_a

he_o run_v away_o from_o god_n run_v any_o where_o then_o unto_o god_n there_o be_v many_o will_v run_v to_o the_o creature_n and_o their_o eye_n be_v not_o to_o the_o lord_n the_o holy_a one_o of_o

look_v to_o christ_n and_o cry_v after_o christ_n in_o the_o day_n of_o distress_n it_o will_v at_o least_o cry_v unto_o christ_n though_o there_o may_v be_v many_o work_n of_o corruption_n and_o temptation_n and_o many_o distemper_n of_o spirit_n may_v be_v bubble_v up_o in_o time_n of_o affliction_n yet_o faith_n will_v carry_v the_o soul_n to_o look_v towards_o christ_n and_o cry_v after_o

be_v a_o word_n of_o exhortation_n o_o that_o it_o may_v provoke_v we_o all_o to_o deal_v more_o with_o god_n and_o christ_n in_o the_o time_n of_o our_o affliction_n and_o distress_n o_o that_o we_o may_v cry_v more_o to_o he_o and_o pour_v out_o our_o complaint_n more_o to_o he_o as_o this_o poor_a woman_n do_v she_o come_v and_o cry_v o_o lord_n thou_o son_n of_o david_n poor_a soul_n be_v

to_o the_o rock_n o_o that_o such_o disappointment_n may_v reach_v we_o to_o look_v to_o the_o lord_n we_o have_v think_v that_o this_o creature_n may_v ease_v but_o we_o have_v meet_v with_o
