fall_n little_a cause_n have_v i_o to_o rejoice_v at_o another_o stumble_n and_o fall_v when_o god_n in_o wrath_n dispose_v of_o another_o man_n stumble_v to_o make_v i_o stumble_v and_o of_o another_o man_n fall_n to_o make_v i_o fall_v what_o cause_n have_v i_o to_o rejoice_v at_o his_o stumble_a and_o fall_v who_o therefore_o stumble_v and_o fall_v that_o i_o may_v stumble_v and_o fall_v at_o he_o and_o this_o be_v the_o very_a case_n here_o such_o as_o do_v give_v scandal_n do_v stumble_v that_o other_o may_v stumble_v at_o they_o do_v fall_v that_o other_o may_v fall_v at_o they_o jerem._n 46._o 12._o the_o mighty_a man_n have_v stumble_v against_o the_o mighty_a and_o they_o be_v both_o fall_v together_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o egyptian_n ruin_v in_o war_n it_o may_v be_v that_o one_o captain_n that_o hate_v his_o fellow_n may_v see_v he_o fall_v by_o the_o sword_n of_o the_o enemy_n now_o though_o he_o be_v his_o enemy_n that_o he_o see_v fall_v have_v he_o any_o cause_n to_o rejoice_v not_o any_o at_o all_o why_o so_o because_o god_n providence_n dispose_v that_o the_o fall_n of_o the_o first_o shall_v make_v way_n for_o the_o fall_n and_o ruin_n of_o the_o next_o he_o that_o fall_v first_o shall_v lie_v in_o his_o fellow_n way_n as_o a_o stumble_a block_n at_o which_o he_o shall_v stumble_v and_o fall_v also_o thus_o we_o see_v before_o that_o the_o fall_v of_o such_o as_o profess_v religion_n be_v but_o as_o stumble_a block_n in_o other_o man_n way_n to_o precipitate_v they_o into_o ruin_n and_o judge_v then_o what_o cause_n they_o have_v to_o rejoice_v thereat_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v see_v a_o stumble_a stone_n or_o a_o stumble_a block_n lay_v on_o purpose_n at_o a_o pit_n brink_n to_o topple_v he_o headlong_o over_o into_o the_o pit_n will_v that_o man_n rejoice_v that_o that_o block_n be_v lay_v there_o i_o think_v not_o this_o be_v the_o case_n here_o scandal_n be_v stumble_a block_n lay_v at_o hell_n pit_n mouth_n to_o precipitate_v and_o headlong_o worldly_a wicked_a man_n down_o into_o hell_n so_o that_o to_o rejoice_v at_o scandal_n be_v to_o rejoice_v at_o the_o matter_n and_o instrument_n of_o their_o own_o sorrow_n to_o rejoice_v at_o that_o which_o will_v sure_o send_v they_o to_o hell_n he_o that_o rejoice_v in_o such_o a_o case_n much_o good_a may_v his_o joy_n do_v he_o i_o envy_v no_o man_n such_o joy_n there_o fall_v out_o a_o scandal_n in_o the_o church_n of_o corinth_n 1._o corinth_n 5._o now_o whereas_o upon_o the_o event_n of_o it_o they_o shall_v have_v be_v mourning_n and_o heavy_a they_o be_v in_o another_o vein_n verse_n 2_o 6._o they_o be_v glory_v and_o rejoice_v they_o do_v not_o rejoice_v in_o or_o at_o the_o scandal_n that_o such_o a_o man_n that_o make_v such_o a_o profession_n be_v fall_v but_o they_o rejoice_v in_o their_o own_o gift_n in_o the_o gift_n of_o their_o preacher_n what_o church_n have_v such_o preacher_n what_o people_n have_v such_o gift_n and_o rejoice_v they_o may_v in_o these_o thing_n but_o now_o it_o be_v unseasonable_a they_o shall_v now_o rather_o have_v be_v mourning_n because_o of_o this_o scandal_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n sharp_o take_v they_o up_o verse_n 2_o 6._o and_o you_o be_v puff_v up_o and_o have_v not_o rather_o mourn_v your_o glory_v or_o rejoice_v be_v not_o good_a if_o then_o the_o apostle_n reprove_v they_o thus_o for_o rejoice_v when_o there_o be_v a_o scandal_n though_o they_o rejoice_v not_o at_o the_o scandal_n how_o much_o more_o vehement_o and_o sharp_o will_v he_o have_v reproove_v they_o if_o they_o have_v rejoice_v at_o and_o for_o the_o scandal_n how_o much_o more_o in_o this_o case_n will_v he_o have_v say_v your_o rejoice_v be_v not_o good_a woe_n to_o the_o world_n because_o of_o scandal_n and_o yet_o many_o make_v these_o matter_n of_o woe_n laugh_v matter_n but_o woe_n unto_o they_o that_o in_o such_o a_o case_n laugh_v for_o they_o shall_v weep_v and_o aftertime_n and_o afterwit_n will_v teach_v they_o that_o never_o have_v they_o great_a cause_n of_o weep_v then_o even_o then_o when_o they_o be_v upon_o their_o merry_a pin_n because_o that_o at_o which_o they_o make_v themselves_o so_o merry_a come_v with_o a_o woe_n unto_o they_o 2._o second_o this_o let_v we_o see_v what_o great_a cause_n of_o fear_n wariness_n and_o caution_n there_o be_v in_o case_n of_o scandalous_a event_n since_o they_o be_v such_o dangerous_a event_n let_v man_n have_v a_o special_a care_n they_o be_v not_o ensnare_v and_o entrap_v by_o they_o when_o scandal_n fall_v out_o we_o see_v there_o be_v a_o trap_n and_o a_o snare_n set_v there_o be_v a_o stumble_a block_n lay_v therefore_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o man_n wisdom_n and_o watchfulness_n that_o he_o be_v not_o catch_v in_o the_o trap_n that_o he_o be_v not_o ensnare_v in_o the_o gin_n that_o he_o stumble_v and_o fall_v not_o at_o the_o block_n we_o see_v that_o god_n have_v put_v that_o wisdom_n wariness_n and_o shinesse_fw-mi into_o some_o creature_n that_o if_o a_o trap_n or_o a_o snare_n be_v set_v for_o they_o they_o be_v very_o rich_a &_o jealous_a of_o come_v near_o it_o or_o meddle_v with_o the_o bait_n and_o out_o of_o a_o fear_n of_o be_v take_v they_o will_v decline_v and_o shun_v the_o snare_n though_o tempt_v and_o allure_v thereto_o by_o such_o bait_n as_o otherwise_o they_o have_v a_o full_a good_a mind_n unto_o such_o much_o more_o shall_v be_v the_o shinesse_fw-mi and_o wary_a jealousy_n of_o man_n in_o the_o case_n of_o scandalous_a event_n do_v we_o see_v at_o any_o time_n such_o as_o profess_v religion_n to_o fall_v into_o any_o foul_a evil_n then_o think_v thus_o with_o thyself_o i_o have_v think_v that_o when_o such_o event_n have_v come_v to_o pass_v the_o danger_n of_o they_o have_v be_v only_o a_o personal_a danger_n to_o the_o party_n delinquent_n that_o it_o have_v be_v only_o for_o the_o discovery_n and_o for_o the_o disgrace_n of_o he_o i_o never_o dream_v of_o any_o further_a matter_n and_o therefore_o i_o think_v i_o may_v have_v make_v a_o may-game_n of_o they_o and_o have_v rejoice_v and_o triumph_v in_o their_o fall_n but_o now_o i_o see_v there_o be_v a_o further_a matter_n in_o they_o then_o i_o be_v aware_a of_o i_o see_v that_o they_o come_v to_o pass_v by_o divine_a providence_n to_o bring_v a_o woe_n upon_o other_o man_n head_n i_o see_v they_o come_v that_o some_o may_v be_v occasion_v to_o stumble_v at_o religion_n at_o the_o law_n at_o the_o word_n and_o from_o the_o ancient_a path_n that_o hereupon_o they_o shall_v resolve_o reject_v &_o renounce_v save_v religion_n and_o the_o save_v powerful_a profession_n thereof_o to_o their_o own_o assure_a ruin_n for_o ever_o i_o see_v now_o that_o they_o be_v dispose_v by_o a_o divine_a providence_n that_o some_o man_n be_v occasion_v to_o blaspheme_v god_n name_n &_o truth_n may_v feel_v the_o weight_n of_o god_n revenge_a hand_n i_o now_o see_v there_o be_v a_o divine_a finger_n in_o they_o and_o that_o they_o come_v to_o occasion_v some_o man_n to_o harden_v their_o heart_n so_o as_o they_o may_v fall_v into_o mischief_n and_o be_v put_v out_o of_o possibility_n and_o the_o reach_n of_o mercy_n these_o be_v great_a danger_n and_o heavy_a woe_n for_o i_o see_v now_o they_o be_v but_o stumble_a block_n at_o which_o some_o man_n shall_v break_v their_o neck_n into_o hell_n i_o confess_v i_o do_v never_o conceive_v they_o to_o be_v half_a so_o dangerous_a event_n i_o never_o apprehend_v they_o such_o dangerous_a trap_n and_o snare_n as_o now_o upon_o the_o
