you_o must_v needs_o conclude_v that_o nothing_o else_o be_v make_v account_n of_o but_o only_a faith_n for_o have_v god_n list_v to_o sift_v abraham_n life_n he_o have_v be_v condemn_v as_o all_o

have_v his_o eye_n shut_v against_o all_o vain_a trust_v wherewith_o man_n deceyve_v themselves_o he_o know_v there_o be_v nothing_o able_a to_o bring_v he_o to_o life_n save_o the_o only_a mercy_n of_o god_n to_o be_v short_a like_a as_o abraham_n have_v no_o regard_n but_o of_o god_n mere_a mercy_n so_o god_n have_v no_o regard_n but_o only_o of_o abraham_n faith_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n be_v he_o justify_v so_o then_o let_v we_o leave_v all_o thing_n that_o man_n imagine_v to_o bring_v themselves_o in_o favour_n with_o god_n by_o mingle_v this_o and_o that_o with_o faith_n for_o they_o be_v all_o but_o falshod_n and_o illusion_n of_o satan_n and_o let_v faith_n have_v such_o foundation_n as_o this_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n that_o with_o all_o humility_n we_o acknowledge_v

of_o that_o freedom_n be_v too_o be_v able_a too_o carry_v a_o cheerful_a and_o quiet_a mind_n before_o god_n for_o without_o that_o we_o shall_v never_o have_v the_o hart_n to_o obey_v he_o but_o

you_o see_v then_o that_o they_o can_v well_o enough_o confess_v in_o general_a term_n that_o the_o gospel_n ought_v too_o be_v preach_v but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o they_o know_v not_o what_o

declare_v already_o it_o have_v not_o be_v enough_o for_o s._n paul_n to_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o gospel_n in_o general_a except_o he_o have_v show_v therewith_o that_o he_o have_v be_v a_o true_a &_o faithful_a minister_n of_o it_o for_o the_o devil_n can_v well_o enough_o away_o that_o the_o name_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v of_o very_o great_a estimation_n among_o we_o but_o in_o the_o

it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o the_o name_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v honour_v in_o the_o world_n but_o we_o must_v also_o know_v what_o manner_n of_o thing_n the_o gospel_n be_v and_o what_o be_v contain_v in_o it_o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n chalendge_v that_o faithfulness_n of_o teach_v the_o gospel_n in_o so_o much_o that_o if_o any_o whit_n of_o it_o be_v change_v let_v the_o same_o be_v accurse_v and_o this_o yet_o again_o be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v note_v for_o when_o the_o papist_n read_v this_o place_n they_o do_v nothing_o but_o scoff_n at_o it_o and_o god_n also_o have_v dull_v they_o so_o as_o there_o be_v less_o wit_n in_o they_o than_o in_o little_a child_n for_o they_o understand_v it_o thus_o namely_o that_o paul_n mean_v that_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v make_v another_o gospel_n as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v write_v a_o book_n and_o the_o same_o shall_v not_o be_v the_o gospel_n that_o be_v write_v by_o he_o than_o they_o shall_v utter_o reject_v it_o because_o the_o gospel_n be_v sufficient_o prove_v already_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o they_o think_v not_o that_o all_o that_o be_v contain_v in_o paul_n epistle_n be_v every_o whit_n of_o it_o gospel_n but_o they_o rather_o surmise_v that_o he_o have_v write_v some_o story_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o if_o any_o other_o have_v be_v bring_v in_o upon_o the_o refuzall_n thereof_o the_o same_o that_o have_v be_v so_o bring_v in_o shall_v have_v have_v no_o credit_n nor_o reputation_n but_o we_o see_v that_o in_o that_o case_n these_o wretched_a beast_n have_v neither_o reason_n nor_o understanding_n nor_o any_o taste_n at_o all_o so_o much_o the_o more_o therefore_o do_v it_o stand_v we_o in_o hand_n too_o mark_v that_o s._n paul_n have_v good_a cause_n too_o speak_v of_o the_o gospel_n which_o he_o have_v preach_v even_o to_o show_v as_o it_o be_v with_o his_o finger_fw-la the_o doctrine_n which_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v full_o persuade_v of_o will_v we_o be_v of_o the_o flock_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n then_o be_v it_o not_o enough_o for_o we_o too_o accept_v what_o soever_o be_v tell_v we_o in_o his_o name_n but_o we_o must_v put_v that_o thing_n in_o ●re_n which_o be_v speak_v in_o the_o ten_o of_o saint_n john_n 5_o which_o be_v too_o be_v able_a by_o herken_v unto_o his_o voice_n too_o discern_v his_o voice_n from_o

which_o care_v not_o which_o end_n go_v forward_o in_o somuch_o that_o if_o a_o man_n tell_v they_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o only_o he_o upon_o who_o we_o must_v rest_v to_o have_v any_o trust_n of_o salvation_n it_o be_v well_o they_o can_v like_v well_o enough_o of_o that_o doctrine_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n if_o a_o man_n set_v store_n of_o trumpery_n before_o they_o

the_o author_n in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n his_o father_n see_v it_o be_v so_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o hold_v we_o to_o it_o and_o so_o consequent_o when_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o another_o gospel_n he_o mean_v the_o minglemangle_n and_o corruption_n that_o may_v be_v put_v unto_o it_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v whatsoever_o be_v add_v or_o patch_v to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n by_o

therefore_o let_v we_o shun_v it_o as_o a_o poison_n for_o sure_o no_o poison_n can_v be_v so_o deadly_a as_o a_o false_a doctrine_n and_o if_o man_n do_v natural_o keep_v themselves_o from_o the_o

by_o any_o trumpery_n of_o man_n too_o be_v short_a
world_n have_v be_v so_o blind_a that_o it_o can_v not_o perceyve_v it_o these_o kind_n of_o man_n have_v expound_v this_o say_n that_o we_o be_v not_o iustify_v by_o the_o deed_n of_o the_o law_n

he_o that_o do_v these_o thing_n shall_v live_v in_o they_o then_o if_o we_o go_v about_o to_o get_v favour_n at_o god_n hand_n for_o our_o own_o work_n sake_n we_o must_v not_o dispute_v

they_o be_v both_o one_o thing_n as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o but_o in_o this_o text_n the_o word_n faith_n have_v yet_o a_o more_o peculiar_a signification_n which_o be_v the_o revelation_n or_a

that_o abraham_n perceive_v how_o it_o stand_v he_o on_o hand_n to_o put_v his_o whole_a trust_n in_o the_o mere_a grace_n of_o god_n give_v over_o himself_o and_o so_o his_o believe_v be_v reckon_v

as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o because_o that_o be_v rid_v of_o all_o fond_a overween_a and_o acknowledge_v ourselves_o to_o be_v damn_v in_o our_o own_o nature_n we_o flee_v for_o refuge_n to_o

command_v of_o the_o ceremony_n be_v but_o for_o a_o time_n &_o that_o we_o must_v always_o have_v a_o eye_n wheretoo_o he_o tend_v namely_o that_o he_o mean_v to_o maintain_v the_o people_n in_o

be_v dismay_v and_o the_o frailty_n of_o man_n be_v such_o that_o they_o will_v have_v quite_o quell_v a_o hundred_o thousand_o time_n and_o therefore_o although_o they_o see_v not_o yet_o full_o how_o they_o shall_v be_v save_v yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o have_v therein_o as_o it_o be_v lively_a picture_n &_o lookingglass_n where_o they_o may_v behold_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o shadow_n and_o figure_n serve_v but_o for_o a_o time_n so_o then_o s._n paul_n declare_v 19_o that_o he_o will_v not_o in_o any_o point_n diminish_v the_o authority_n of_o

according_a as_o he_o be_v set_v forth_o to_o we_o in_o the_o gospel_n for_o whensoever_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v unto_o we_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o we_o see_v god_n son_n crucify_v

but_o faith_n be_v a_o sufficient_a bond_n too_o knit_v we_o unto_o he_o furthermore_o we_o see_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o pledge_n of_o man_n welfare_n be_v now_o

and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o christ_n say_v that_o abraham_n see_v his_o day_n and_o be_v glad_a of_o it_o the_o jew_n allege_v the_o worthiness_n of_o the_o patriarch_n yea_o say_v christ_n as_o though_o your_o father_n abraham_n have_v not_o rest_v upon_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v speak_v too_o he_o concern_v i_o 56_o therefore_o he_o see_v my_o day_n and_o it_o be_v the_o thing_n wherein_o he_o take_v all_o his_o comfort_n in_o so_o much_o that_o he_o have_v not_o any_o other_o hope_n of_o salvation_n than_o by_o the_o belief_n which_o he_o have_v in_o the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v preach_v unto_o you_o at_o this_o day_n by_o the_o gospel_n that_o also_o be_v the_o very_a same_o thing_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o john_n baptist_n by_o the_o prophet_n malachi_n 6._o namely_o that_o he_o be_v send_v to_o knit_v the_o heart_n and_o mind_n of_o the_o father_n to_o the_o child_n and_o this_o be_v not_o speak_v only_o of_o the_o person_n of_o john_n baptist_n but_o it_o belong_v also_o to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o thing_n whereunto_o our_o lord_n call_v we_o be_v that_o although_o abraham_n be_v rot_v in_o the_o earth_n so_o long_a time_n ago_o yet_o we_o may_v assure_v ourselves_o that_o there_o be_v none_o other_o promise_n than_o that_o for_o we_o too_o trust_v unto_o so_o we_o be_v knit_v unto_o he_o by_o faith_n and_o do_v so_o agree_v together_o as_o we_o can_v call_v upon_o god_n with_o the_o same_o mind_n wherewith_o he_o be_v govern_v according_a as_o in_o very_a deed_n he_o have_v his_o mind_n fix_v

our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n come_v now_o can_v abraham_n never_o have_v trust_v too_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v too_o he_o if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v arm_v with_o heavenly_a power_n for_o he_o

you_o see_v how_o we_o ought_v too_o put_v this_o text_n in_o ure_n now_o hereupon_o s._n paul_n conclude_v that_o if_o the_o inheritance_n come_v by_o the_o law_n it_o shall_v not_o come_v by_o faith_n but_o god_n give_v abraham_n all_o thing_n in_o respect_n of_o faith_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v too_o be_v conclude_v that_o the_o law_n must_v needs_o cease_v when_o man_n go_v about_o to_o get_v favour_n at_o god_n hand_n and_o the_o praise_n of_o our_o salvation_n must_v be_v yield_v all_o whole_o untoo_o he_o s._n paul_n in_o speak_v here_o of_o inheritance_n meen_v two_o thing_n the_o one_o be_v that_o what_o soever_o god_n have_v at_o any_o time_n promise_v we_o be_v of_o his_o own_o mere_a free_a goodness_n for_o a_o inheritance_n be_v not_o a_o wage_n or_o hire_n true_a it_o be_v that_o a_o father_n in_o give_v his_o child_n their_o heritage_n may_v well_o say_v see_v how_o i_o take_v pain_n for_o you_o mark_v what_o shall_v come_v of_o it_o you_o shall_v have_v my_o good_n among_o you_o but_o yet_o how_o soever_o the_o father_n deal_v with_o they_o he_o have_v none_o other_o respect_n than_o too_o his_o own_o kinship_n he_o labour_v and_o take_v great_a pain_n too_o provide_v for_o such_o as_o be_v so_o ally_v unto_o he_o see_v then_o that_o heritage_n be_v thing_n of_o free_a gift_n among_o man_n we_o must_v not_o take_v eternal_a life_n as_o a_o deserve_a wage_n or_o hire_n at_o god_n hand_n for_o why_o it_o be_v a_o heritage_n mark_v it_o for_o a_o sure_a ground_n that_o here_o all_o worthiness_n of_o man_n be_v exclude_v for_o when_o a_o man_n make_v his_o child_n his_o heir_n he_o pass_v not_o whither_o they_o have_v do_v any_o great_a work_n or_o no_o or_o whither_o they_o be_v fair_a or_o foul_a or_o whither_o they_o be_v one_o thing_n or_o other_o but_o it_o be_v enough_o for_o he_o that_o they_o be_v his_o child_n and_o that_o his_o mind_n be_v too_o provide_v for_o they_o another_o point_n be_v that_o saint_n paul_n in_o so_o say_v give_v we_o a_o inkling_n that_o we_o be_v all_o of_o we_o utter_o reject_v of_o god_n so_o as_o we_o can_v no_n not_o even_o in_o this_o transitory_a life_n enjoy_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o but_o by_o the_o only_a mere_a grace_n of_o god_n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o sun_n shine_v as_o well_o upon_o the_o faithless_a as_o upon_o the_o faithful_a and_o all_o man_n be_v nurrish_v alike_o with_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n give_v and_o grant_v unto_o they_o but_o yet_o howsoever_o they_o fare_v the_o unbeliever_n possess_v not_o any_o thing_n by_o just_a title_n they_o be_v but_o thief_n and_o must_v yield_v account_n of_o the_o benefit_n and_o good_n which_o they_o have_v receyve_v of_o god_n even_o too_o the_o last_o drop_n of_o water_n because_o they_o be_v not_o sanctify_v but_o defile_v they_o asmuch_o as_o in_o they_o lay_v because_o they_o have_v no_o faith_n which_o as_o say_v saint_n paul_n be_v the_o thing_n whereby_o the_o benefit_n that_o god_n give_v untoo_o we_o be_v make_v clean_o 5._o that_o be_v the_o way_n for_o we_o too_o use_v they_o lawful_o but_o let_v faith_n be_v away_o and_o there_o shall_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o unclennesse_n for_o why_o if_o my_o hand_n be_v foul_a and_o i_o handle_v the_o pretious_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n with_o they_o they_o shall_v be_v ray_v with_o the_o filthiness_n of_o my_o hand_n even_o so_o be_v it_o when_o we_o abuse_v god_n benefit_n the_o unbelief_n that_o be_v in_o we_o defile_v all_o and_o in_o the_o end_n all_o creature_n must_v cry_v out_o for_o vengeance_n upon_o we_o because_o we_o abuse_v they_o if_o we_o possess_v they_o not_o with_o faith_n
you_o see_v then_o that_o we_o can_v enjoy_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o unless_o we_o be_v god_n child_n and_o for_o the_o same_o cause_n also_o saint_n paul_n in_o the_o four_o too_o the_o roman_n 13._o think_v it_o not_o enough_o too_o set_v down_o the_o heavenly_a life_n and_o everlasting_a salvation_n but_o also_o name_v the_o heritage_n of_o the_o world_n and_o say_v that_o abraham_n be_v make_v heir_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o the_o same_o be_v not_o for_o that_o man_n alone_o but_o for_o all_o man_n in_o general_n therefore_o whereas_o god_n adopt_v we_o and_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o will_v be_v gracious_a untoo_o we_o it_o be_v too_o the_o end_n that_o while_o we_o live_v here_o beneath_o we_o shall_v be_v feed_v by_o his_o hand_n and_o he_o in_o give_v we_o food_n make_v we_o too_o taste_v aforehand_o of_o the_o love_n which_o he_o bear_v we_o and_o of_o the_o care_n that_o he_o have_v over_o us._n too_o be_v short_a we_o may_v and_o ought_v also_o too_o

towards_o us._n when_o we_o eat_v and_o receyve_v our_o sustenance_n god_n reach_v out_o his_o hand_n too_o show_v that_o we_o be_v already_o feed_v by_o he_o as_o his_o own_o child_n too_o be_v short_a in_o all_o thing_n and_o by_o all_o mean_v he_o make_v we_o too_o taste_v his_o fatherly_a love_n aforehand_o too_o the_o intent_n we_o shall_v be_v confirm_v in_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o

creature_n direct_v we_o untoo_o heavenward_o but_o sure_o we_o do_v the_o clean_a contrary_n for_o we_o apply_v god_n creature_n to_o our_o own_o lust_n so_o as_o we_o behilde_n down_o still_o by_o they_o here_o to_o be_v short_a look_v how_o many_o help_v god_n have_v give_v we_o too_o draw_v we_o too_o he_o so_o many_o let_v have_v we_o too_o hold_v we_o back_o in_o the_o world_n for_o we_o never_o pass_v too_o know_v how_o we_o shall_v be_v reckon_v for_o god_n child_n so_o we_o may_v live_v at_o our_o ease_n in_o this_o world_n that_o be_v enough_o for_o us._n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o stand_v we_o great_o on_o hand_n too_o perceyve_v that_o god_n do_v already_o in_o this_o world_n show_v himself_o a_o father_n towards_o we_o and_o intend_v too_o do_v we_o too_o wit_n what_o a_o care_n he_o have_v of_o we_o too_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v learn_v too_o refer_v ourselves_o whole_o untoo_o he_o and_o there_o too_o rest_n you_o see_v then_o that_o by_o this_o word_n heritage_n or_o inheritance_n god_n show_v first_o that_o whatsoever_o he_o offer_v we_o be_v of_o his_o own_o mere_a free_a bounteousness_n and_o second_o that_o we_o be_v so_o curse_v that_o we_o have_v no_o right_a too_o any_o thing_n no_o not_o even_o too_o a_o drop_n of_o water_n except_o god_n make_v we_o his_o heir_n and_o that_o must_v be_v do_v all_o only_a for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n

so_o as_o they_o be_v fain_o too_o die_v too_o give_v we_o sustenance_n and_o too_o clothe_v we_o and_o keep_v we_o warm_v again_o we_o see_v how_o the_o earth_n yield_v we_o fruit_n therefore_o the_o
