before_o the_o make_n of_o the_o world_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v too_o mark_v in_o effect_n be_v that_o all_o man_n from_o the_o most_o too_o the_o least_o be_v

and_o examine_v ourselves_o narrow_o that_o we_o take_v not_o a_o vain_a cloak_n under_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o we_o see_v many_o do_v now_o adays_o which_o protest_v themselves_o to_o be_v gospeler_n and_o even_o among_o ourselves_o what_o a_o number_n be_v there_o which_o will_v show_v sign_n great_a enough_o that_o they_o be_v willing_a too_o follow_v god_n word_n but_o

and_o that_o be_v the_o very_o mean_v whereby_o too_o be_v fill_v with_o his_o benefit_n and_o too_o have_v his_o holy_a spirit_n dwell_v and_o reign_v in_o we_o for_o unless_o we_o fear_v god_n and_o

after_o the_o flesh_n 16._o as_o saint_n paul_n say_v too_o the_o galatian_n therefore_o we_o must_v show_v by_o our_o outward_a fruit_n that_o we_o be_v true_o join_v too_o jesus_n christ_n 5._o and_o that_o he_o have_v make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n now_o hereupon_o saint_n paul_n add_v further_a that_o we_o must_v be_v root_v and_o ground_v in_o charity_n this_o word_n charity_n or_o love_n may_v be_v take_v as_o well_o for_o the_o love_n that_o god_n bear_v we_o as_o for_o the_o mutual_a love_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o bear_v one_o towards_o another_o but_o the_o very_a true_a and_o native_a sense_n of_o saint_n paul_n here_o be_v that_o he_o mean_v too_o have_v we_o knit_v together_o for_o as_o he_o speak_v heretofore_o of_o god_n free_a love_n towards_o we_o so_o now_o he_o show_v how_o faith_n import_v that_o we_o shall_v have_v brotherly_a love_v one_o towards_o another_o and_o the_o holy_a scripture_n bring_v we_o always_o to_o that_o point_n insomuch_o that_o when_o there_o be_v any_o speak_n of_o the_o full_a perfection_n of_o good_a life_n faith_n go_v before_o &_o then_o come_v charity_n next_o unto_o it_o for_o the_o end_n that_o we_o

first_o too_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o give_v we_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o person_n of_o his_o only_a son_n and_o second_o too_o call_v upon_o he_o too_o settle_v our_o faith_n in_o he_o too_o flee_v whole_o for_o refuge_n too_o his_o mercy_n and_o after_o as_o every_o man_n feel_v himself_o bind_v unto_o he_o as_o all_o of_o we_o be_v exceed_o so_o to_o acknowledge_v by_o our_o

whole_o upon_o our_o god_n or_o else_o all_o the_o virtuousness_n which_o we_o seem_v too_o have_v before_o man_n shall_v be_v but_o filth_n and_o dung_n now_o then_o have_v we_o faith_n charity_n

and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o we_o do_v not_o yet_o perceive_v such_o fullness_n of_o god_n grace_n as_o be_v to_o be_v wish_v therefore_o s._n paul_n send_v we_o to_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n

and_o all_o our_o enemy_n now_o than_o we_o see_v s._n paul_n meaning_n that_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o may_v be_v cast_v down_o and_o our_o faith_n at_o least_o wise_a sore_o shake_v if_o we_o shall_v look_v no_o further_o than_o too_o ourselves_o therefore_o he_o set_v jesus_n christ_n before_o we_o as_o the_o true_a pattern_n wherein_o we_o may_v see_v the_o thing_n that_o as_o yet_o be_v unseen_a in_o ourselves_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n god_n inestimable_a power_n which_o surmount_v the_o whole_a world_n for_o first_o he_o be_v raze_v from_o death_n and_o second_o he_o be_v set_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o his_o father_n now_o the_o speak_n of_o god_n right_a hand_n be_v a_o resemblance_n take_v of_o man_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o god_n have_v neither_o right_a hand_n nor_o

and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n they_o have_v rob_v he_o of_o his_o office_n which_o be_v allot_v he_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o make_v but_o a_o dead_a thing_n of_o it_o so_o much_o the_o

the_o angel_n according_a too_o his_o degree_n for_o there_o be_v not_o a_o more_o devilish_a malapertness_n than_o too_o babble_n in_o that_o sort_n of_o god_n secret_n further_o than_o god_n have_v make_v we_o privy_a too_o they_o by_o his_o word_n therefore_o let_v we_o hold_v ourselves_o content_v that_o the_o angel_n how_o noble_a so_o ever_o they_o be_v be_v ordain_v too_o be_v the_o

we_o must_v mark_v well_o how_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o eight_o psalm_n that_o god_n have_v care_n of_o all_o thing_n yea_o even_o unto_o the_o sheep_n too_o the_o bird_n of_o the_o air_n and_o

that_o all_o thing_n be_v make_v subject_a too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v now_o too_o give_v god_n thanks_n in_o the_o name_n of_o his_o only_a son_n our_o lord_n

wherewith_o too_o defend_v we_o against_o he_o and_o army_n wherewith_o too_o make_v we_o invincible_a in_o all_o battle_n therefore_o when_o we_o be_v weak_a let_v we_o resort_v too_o his_o

as_o god_n ordain_v it_o and_o so_o long_o as_o the_o jew_n use_v it_o holy_o it_o be_v a_o sure_a warrant_n to_o they_o of_o god_n adoption_n as_o if_o he_o have_v cleanse_v they_o from_o all_o the_o

he_o show_v that_o the_o sacrament_n take_v and_o borrow_v their_o force_n of_o god_n word_n for_o if_o there_o be_v nomore_o but_o the_o bare_a sign_n it_o be_v no_o matter_n of_o great_a

will_v say_v confirm_v that_o then_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n join_v here_o the_o common_a weal_n of_o israel_n and_o the_o instrument_n of_o god_n promise_n and_o our_o lord_n jesus_n

we_o must_v not_o look_v upon_o circumcision_n in_o itself_o but_o we_o must_v direct_v it_o too_o the_o right_a end_n of_o it_o it_o become_v we_o too_o know_v wherefore_o god_n will_v have_v it_o

here_o and_o so_o you_o see_v what_o this_o say_n the_o love_n of_o god_n import_v and_o he_o say_v purposely_o in_o jesus_n christ_n because_o that_o without_o he_o we_o can_v not_o be_v belove_v of_o god_n for_o let_v jesus_n christ_n be_v as_o you_o will_v say_v let_v alone_o and_o let_v we_o put_v the_o case_n that_o we_o think_v upon_o god_n and_o that_o we_o do_v apply_v all_o our_o wit_n

that_o we_o be_v utter_o unfurnished_a of_o all_o virtue_n that_o we_o be_v give_v too_o all_o evil_a that_o we_o be_v hold_v down_o under_o the_o thraldom_n of_o sin_n and_o that_o nothing_o in_o

no_o but_o contrariwise_o he_o must_v needs_o abhor_v we_o so_o then_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o saint_n paul_n have_v speak_v here_o express_o of_o god_n love_n to_o the_o intent_n we_o may_v know_v that_o he_o do_v just_o hate_v we_o so_o long_o as_o he_o behold_v we_o in_o our_o own_o natural_a state_n add_v immediate_o that_o the_o same_o love_n be_v ground_v upon_o the_o

towards_o we_o and_o that_o jesus_n christ_n also_o will_v do_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o shepherd_n
too_o understand_v that_o the_o church_n shall_v be_v preserve_v forâ—_n ever_o and_o that_o there_o shall_v always_o remain_v some_o seed_n of_o it_o in_o the_o world_n so_o as_o the_o record_n of_o

of_o our_o wit_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o hypocrisy_n in_o we_o and_o our_o confess_v that_o god_n be_v almighty_a come_v not_o from_o our_o heart_n so_o much_o the_o more_o therefore_o behove_v

almighty_a can_v not_o he_o with_o one_o blast_n blow_v away_o all_o that_o the_o devil_n practise_v though_o all_o the_o world_n be_v against_o we_o what_o can_v it_o do_v so_o our_o lord_n vouchsafe_v too_o maintain_v our_o part_n after_o that_o manner_n must_v we_o advance_v god_n power_n above_o the_o whole_a world_n that_o we_o may_v rest_v upon_o his_o promise_n for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o god_n word_n and_o the_o power_n of_o bring_v too_o pass_v the_o thing_n contain_v therein_o be_v thing_n unseparable_a and_o we_o blaspheme_v god_n as_o oft_o as_o we_o be_v

cause_n why_o the_o prophet_n in_o speak_v of_o the_o succour_n which_o god_n have_v always_o in_o readiness_n too_o rescue_v the_o faithful_a withal_o from_o death_n when_o they_o be_v plunge_a in_o it_o 18._o have_v common_o say_v be_v it_o not_o the_o god_n which_o have_v make_v both_o heaven_n and_o earth_n this_o shall_v seem_v too_o be_v far_o fetch_v for_o the_o case_n be_v that_o i_o be_o

he_o seem_v too_o send_v i_o very_o far_o and_o too_o make_v i_o leap_v out_o of_o god_n blessing_n into_o the_o warm_a sun_n but_o god_n tell_v of_o we_o that_o he_o create_v heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v too_o do_v we_o too_o understand_v that_o it_o belong_v too_o he_o also_o too_o rule_v his_o creature_n that_o he_o have_v a_o care_n of_o we_o as_o of_o his_o child_n that_o there_o be_v not_o

whatsoever_o seem_v too_o be_v against_o we_o and_o so_o you_o see_v how_o you_o must_v always_o have_v the_o say_a chain_n to_o tie_v god_n promise_n &_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o ring_v of_o they_o to_o pass_v together_o and_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o he_o can_v do_v all_o thing_n above_o our_o ask_n and_o our_o think_n not_o without_o cause_n have_v he_o inclose_v here_o all_o that_o belong_v

that_o therefore_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n will_v have_v we_o too_o look_v for_o all_o thing_n at_o the_o hand_n of_o our_o god_n and_o he_o say_v above_o our_o ask_n true_a it_o be_v

with_o they_o after_o a_o visible_a fashion_n as_o well_o as_o he_o do_v when_o he_o be_v go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n but_o we_o must_v not_o dispute_v of_o this_o matter_n after_o our_o own_o

insomuch_o that_o when_o the_o holy_a scripture_n say_v that_o god_n be_v in_o heaven_n it_o intend_v not_o too_o assign_v he_o some_o peculiar_a place_n the_o respect_n be_v far_o differ_v and_o

speak_v of_o god_n we_o must_v always_o lay_v this_o ground_n that_o he_o have_v a_o infinite_a essence_n which_o fill_v all_o thing_n 1._o so_o that_o heaven_n be_v as_o his_o royal_a throne_n &_o the_o earth_n be_v his_o footstool_n not_o that_o he_o have_v any_o foot_n nor_o any_o seat_n to_o sit_v on_o but_o it_o serve_v to_o show_v that_o there_o be_v no_o distance_n so_o far_o or_o wide_o that_o can_v contain_v the_o majesty_n of_o god_n which_o be_v infinite_a as_o i_o say_v that_o be_v a_o thing_n which_o we_o must_v bear_v in_o mind_n when_o god_n be_v speak_v of_o unto_o we_o and_o why_o then_o be_v it_o say_v that_o god_n be_v above_o all_o the_o heaven_n and_o why_o do_v saint_n paul_n speak_v after_o the_o same_o manner_n here_o of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v because_o that_o we_o be_v dull_a and_o earthly_a that_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o have_v his_o temple_n &_o palace_n in_o heaven_n we_o will_v tie_v he_o too_o every_o pillar_n to_o

then_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o christ_n intend_v too_o distribute_v his_o gift_n by_o certain_a measure_n and_o thereupon_o we_o have_v too_o conclude_v that_o he_o which_o presume_v of_o himself_o

saint_n paul_n therefore_o mean_v not_o that_o we_o can_v do_v any_o thing_n as_o of_o our_o own_o power_n but_o yet_o that_o every_o of_o we_o ought_v too_o strain_v himself_o too_o follow_v

saint_n paul_n say_v that_o the_o new_a man_n be_v create_v after_o god_n and_o his_o image_n and_o therein_o he_o confirm_v the_o matter_n which_o i_o go_v about_o too_o touch_v that_o be_v too_o

in_o the_o lord_n for_o no_o man_n be_v able_a too_o uphold_v himself_o that_o lie_v not_o in_o any_o body_n power_n too_o do_v no_o but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o feel_v by_o effect_n that_o

after_o the_o performance_n of_o all_o here_o he_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n again_o that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o too_o have_v fight_v stout_o for_o a_o month_n or_o for_o a_o year_n but_o that_o we_o must_v hold_v out_o too_o the_o end_n yea_o even_o all_o our_o life_n long_o for_o god_n have_v set_v we_o in_o this_o world_n too_o maintain_v the_o battle_n until_o we_o be_v come_v too_o the_o rest_n of_o heaven_n the_o earth_n than_o be_v not_o only_o as_o a_o pilgrimage_n too_o the_o faithful_a but_o also_o as_o a_o camp_n where_o we_o must_v always_o have_v enemy_n too_o trubble_v we_o night_n and_o day_n without_o cease_v that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n say_v express_o that_o we_o must_v resist_v till_o we_o have_v finish_v and_o perform_v all_o

overcome_v they_o and_o it_o be_v no_o plead_v against_o god_n will_v in_o this_o behalf_n it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o he_o can_v handle_v we_o much_o gently_o and_o that_o he_o can_v so_o set_v we_o alone_o by_o ourselves_o as_o our_o enemy_n shall_v not_o come_v at_o we_o nor_o we_o suffer_v any_o vexation_n but_o it_o like_v he_o not_o too_o do_v so_o therefore_o we_o must_v bow_v down_o our_o neck_n and_o every_o of_o we_o buckle_v himself_o too_o the_o battle_n that_o god_n call_v we_o unto_o for_o as_o say_v saint_n peter_n it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o our_o faith_n which_o be_v much_o precious_a than_o gold_n and_o silver_n 7._o shall_v be_v try_v see_v that_o a_o corruptible_a mettle_n be_v fyne_v by_o fire_n shall_v our_o faith_n which_o be_v much_o more_o excellent_a

13._o even_o by_o his_o own_o example_n for_o although_o he_o have_v do_v so_o notable_a thing_n as_o a_o man_n may_v say_v that_o god_n shall_v have_v hold_v he_o quite_o &_o give_v he_o some_o

but_o that_o they_o think_v themselves_o too_o have_v do_v enough_o and_o may_v give_v other_o leave_v too_o take_v their_o turn_n why_o not_o say_v they_o it_o be_v now_o a_o twenty_o or_o thirty_o

be_v that_o no_o impediment_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o pray_v general_o for_o all_o man_n for_o the_o wretched_a unbeliever_n and_o the_o ignorant_a sort_n have_v great_a need_n too_o be_v sew_v

on_o their_o side_n have_v the_o modesty_n too_o hold_v themselves_o within_o their_o compass_n and_o not_o pass_v their_o bound_n 15._o but_o put_v in_o ure_n this_o say_n of_o s._n paul_n in_o another_o place_n if_o you_o think_v otherwise_o tarry_v till_o god_n show_v it_o you_o &_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n live_v in_o concord_n and_o let_v there_o be_v no_o trouble_n among_o you_o and_o so_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v too_o gather_v upon_o that_o strain_v herewithal_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o god_n by_o that_o mean_n intend_v too_o set_v the_o great_a glory_n upon_o his_o mercy_n for_o when_o in_o the_o end_n he_o publish_v the_o doctrine_n of_o his_o gospel_n than_o do_v he_o utter_v the_o infinite_a riches_n of_o his_o goodness_n towards_o we_o and_o although_o we_o know_v not_o all_o the_o reason_n that_o god_n have_v in_o his_o mind_n when_o he_o defer_v and_o put_v off_o the_o publish_n of_o his_o gospel_n so_o long_a time_n yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v very_o eazie_a for_o we_o too_o judge_v that_o he_o intend_v too_o open_v our_o eye_n and_o too_o waken_v we_o and_o too_o quicken_v up_o all_o our_o wit_n too_o the_o end_n that_o every_o of_o we_o shall_v apply_v himself_o the_o better_a too_o know_v how_o much_o we_o be_v behold_v and_o bind_v unto_o he_o for_o be_v we_o better_o than_o our_o father_n or_o when_o the_o gospel_n be_v publish_v through_o the_o world_n be_v the_o gentile_n more_o teachable_a than_o before_o no_o but_o it_o seem_v that_o wickedness_n be_v then_o come_v too_o his_o full_a measure_n so_o as_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o contempt_n of_o god_n now_o when_o the_o world_n be_v so_o devilish_a throughout_o then_o come_v jesus_n christ_n then_o be_v the_o message_n of_o salvation_n bring_v too_o all_o man_n yea_o and_o when_o s._n paul_n speak_v to_o the_o corinthian_n have_v tell_v they_o that_o murderer_n 10._o whormoonger_n drunkard_n thief_n forswearer_n and_o such_o like_a folk_n yea_o which_o have_v commit_v yet_o more_o heinous_a crime_n shall_v not_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n he_o say_v unto_o they_o you_o also_o have_v be_v like_o they_o too_o show_v that_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o preach_v at_o corinth_n for_o any_o virtue_n that_o be_v there_o nor_o for_o that_o the_o inhabiter_n have_v be_v more_o give_v unto_o god_n or_o deserve_a aught_o at_o all_o but_o all_o proceed_v of_o god_n only_o free_a goodness_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o secret_a which_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o be_v too_o be_v apply_v after_o this_o manner_n namely_o that_o it_o be_v god_n will_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v sin_n in_o all_o man_n without_o exception_n the_o remedy_n whereof_o he_o have_v send_v by_o his_o grace_n likewise_o also_o we_o in_o our_o time_n can_v say_v that_o we_o be_v better_a than_o our_o forefather_n as_o i_o tell_v you_o before_o for_o if_o you_o have_v a_o eye_n too_o the_o common_a state_n there_o be_v more_o faithfulness_n among_o man_n a_o fifty_o year_n ago_o than_o be_v now_o there_o be_v more_o modest_a conversation_n there_o be_v less_o excess_n and_o superfluity_n of_o pomp_n and_o too_o be_v short_a man_n be_v not_o like_o dog_n and_o cat_n as_o they_o be_v now_o adays_o it_o be_v true_a that_o they_o have_v always_o a_o smatch_n of_o their_o own_o nature_n which_o be_v nothing_o worth_a but_o yet_o satan_n seem_v too_o be_v then_o chain_v up_o but_o within_o these_o thirty_o year_n thing_n have_v go_v from_o wooorse_n too_o worse_a and_o so_o far_o out_o of_o square_a as_o be_v horrible_a too_o see_v and_o thereupon_o behold_v god_n grace_n be_v preach_v forguienesse_n of_o sin_n be_v utter_v god_n call_v those_o that_o be_v a_o hundred_o thousand_o time_n forlorn_a now_o what_o can_v be_v say_v too_o it_o but_o that_o god_n will_n be_v too_o give_v the_o great_a beauty_n too_o his_o grace_n and_o mercy_n by_o such_o a_o after_o devil_n wherefore_o let_v we_o consider_v that_o the_o way_n too_o advantage_n
