and_o therefore_o albeit_o it_o be_v a_o commendable_a thing_n to_o preach_v &_o write_v glorious_o of_o repentance_n confession_n and_o satisfaction_n yet_o if_o they_o surcease_v here_o and_o proceed_v no_o further_o even_o to_o the_o instruct_v of_o faith_n such_o doctrine_n doubtless_o be_v deceivable_a and_o devilish_a for_o even_o so_o christ_n with_o his_o belove_a john_n do_v not_o only_o say_v repent_v you_o of_o your_o sin_n but_o add_v also_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v at_o hand_n faith._n for_o the_o one_o part_n of_o god_n word_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v preach_v alone_o but_o both_o together_o must_v be_v teach_v both_o new_a and_o old_a must_v be_v deliver_v out_o of_o this_o treasury_n aswell_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o law_n as_o the_o word_n of_o grace_n the_o voice_n of_o the_o law_n must_v be_v utter_v that_o the_o people_n may_v be_v terrify_v and_o frame_v to_o know_v their_o sin_n and_o thereby_o be_v turn_v to_o repentance_n and_o amendment_n of_o their_o former_a life_n but_o here_o forthwith_o must_v not_o stay_v be_v make_v for_o this_o be_v only_o to_o wound_v and_o not_o minister_v plaster_n to_o lance_n and_o not_o to_o heal_v to_o kill_v and_o not_o to_o quicken_v to_o lead_v unto_o hell_n gate_n and_o not_o to_o deliver_v from_o thence_o to_o throw_v down_o altogether_o and_o not_o raise_v up_o wherefore_o the_o word_n of_o grace_n also_o &_o the_o word_n of_o promise_a forgiveness_n ought_v likewise_o to_o be_v preach_v to_o instruct_v &_o raise_v up_o the_o faith_n without_o the_o which_o in_o vain_a be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n of_o contrition_n of_o repentance_n &_o of_o all_o other_o thing_n also_o practise_v and_o preach_v indeed_o there_o remain_v as_o yet_o certain_a preacher_n of_o repentance_n and_o grace_n proceed_v but_o they_o do_v not_o disclose_v the_o law_n and_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n in_o that_o lively_a spirit_n &_o force_v as_o other_o capacity_n may_v attain_v to_o the_o true_a fountain_n and_o spring_n head_n of_o repentance_n and_o grace_n for_o repentance_n proceed_v from_o out_o the_o law_n of_o god_n but_o faith_n or_o grace_n do_v issue_n from_o god_n promise_n as_o the_o apostle_n witness_v in_o the_o ten_o to_o the_o roman_n faith_n come_v by_o hear_v 10._o but_o hear_v come_v of_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n wherefore_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o man_n receive_v consolation_n and_o be_v raise_v up_o through_o faith_n of_o god_n promise_n who_o otherwise_o through_o the_o threaten_n and_o terror_n of_o god_n law_n be_v bring_v low_a and_o throw_v down_o into_o the_o knowledge_n of_o himself_o 29._o whereof_o the_o psalmist_n in_o the_o xxix_o psalm_n mourn_a shall_v dwell_v until_o the_o evening_n and_o joyfulness_n until_o the_o morning_n let_v this_o suffice_v to_o have_v be_v speak_v of_o work_n in_o general_a neighbour_n and_o of_o those_o work_n also_o which_o a_o christian_a man_n do_v exercise_v towards_o his_o own_o body_n last_o we_o will_v speak_v of_o those_o work_n which_o the_o christian_n do_v employ_v to_o the_o use_n of_o his_o neighbour_n for_o man_n do_v not_o live_v unto_o himself_o only_o in_o this_o mortal_a body_n to_o work_v in_o the_o same_o but_o to_o all_o man_n general_o upon_o the_o earth_n nay_o rather_o man_n live_v only_o to_o other_o man_n and_o not_o to_o himself_o for_o to_o this_o end_n do_v he_o keep_v his_o body_n in_o subjection_n that_o he_o may_v thereby_o more_o sincere_o and_o free_o serve_v to_o the_o necessity_n of_o other_o as_o witness_v paul_n in_o the_o 14._o to_o the_o roman_n 14._o no_o man_n live_v to_o himself_o and_o no_o man_n die_v to_o himself_o for_o he_o that_o live_v live_v unto_o god_n and_o he_o that_o die_v die_v unto_o god._n it_o be_v not_o possible_a therefore_o that_o in_o this_o life_n man_n shall_v be_v idle_a and_o unfruitful_a towards_o his_o neighbour_n for_o of_o very_a necessity_n he_o must_v talk_v work_n and_o be_v conversant_a amongst_o man_n even_o as_o christ_n make_v to_o our_o likeness_n in_o property_n man_n be_v find_v to_o be_v as_o man_n and_o conversant_a amongst_o man_n as_o baruch_n testify_v in_o his_o three_o chapter_n and_o yet_o he_o need_v none_o of_o all_o these_o to_o procure_v righteousness_n and_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o in_o all_o his_o work_n behoove_v he_o to_o be_v so_o frame_v in_o mind_n and_o to_o direct_v his_o whole_a affection_n only_o to_o minister_v to_o the_o necessity_n of_o other_o to_o seek_v the_o commodity_n of_o other_o in_o all_o his_o deed_n have_v regard_n to_o nothing_o else_o than_o to_o the_o behoof_n and_o profit_n of_o his_o neighbour_n for_o even_o so_o the_o apostle_n command_v we_o to_o work_v with_o our_o hand_n that_o we_o may_v have_v wherewith_o to_o relieve_v the_o necessity_n of_o our_o brethren_n whereas_o otherwise_o he_o may_v have_v say_v cherish_v to_o have_v wherewith_o to_o cherish_v our_o own_o body_n but_o let_v he_o give_v say_v he_o to_o he_o that_o be_v in_o need_n for_o the_o property_n of_o true_a christianity_n be_v to_o regard_v the_o state_n of_o his_o own_o body_n to_o this_o end_n that_o through_o
