order_n of_o the_o heaven_n and_o show_v a_o witness_n so_o evident_a that_o this_o procee_v from_o his_o hand_n and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a benefit_n we_o ought_v to_o content_v ourselves_o with_o that_o and_o we_o see_v many_o time_n that_o god_n be_v serve_v with_o his_o creature_n and_o yet_o he_o have_v sufficient_o declare_v that_o it_o be_v his_o own_o power_n only_o they_z which_o think_v that_o ezechias_n rather_o have_v this_o plaster_n as_o a_o sacrament_n to_o confirm_v he_o do_v think_v that_o the_o fig_n will_v more_o have_v hurt_v his_o wound_n than_o help_v it_o but_o a_o man_n may_v make_v a_o compound_n of_o they_o to_o ripe_a a_o sore_n and_o that_o be_v common_o know_v true_a it_o be_v that_o god_n sometime_o geve_v sign_n that_o seem_v clean_o contrary_a and_o that_o be_v to_o draw_v we_o the_o more_o to_o he_o to_o make_v we_o forsake_v our_o own_o fantasy_n and_o hold_v we_o content_v with_o that_o which_o he_o have_v speak_v as_o how_o god_n promise_v that_o the_o world_n shall_v never_o be_v destroy_v with_o water_n and_o what_o sign_n geve_v he_o thereof_o a_o sign_n that_o natural_o threaten_v we_o rain_n when_o we_o see_v

so_o sufficient_a credit_n with_o we_o that_o we_o receive_v it_o without_o gainsay_v so_o they_o god_n work_v well_o in_o such_o sort_n but_o as_o to_o this_o place_n we_o may_v rather_o judge_v that_o the_o prophet_n to_o assuage_v the_o grief_n of_o ezechias_n give_v he_o this_o remedy_n like_v to_o a_o fire_n that_o burn_v a_o man_n and_o so_o when_o god_n have_v prolong_v the_o life_n to_o this_o good_a king_n â–ª_o he_o will_v yet_o of_o abundant_a grace_n add_v this_o goodness_n also_o that_o the_o pain_n shall_v be_v mitigate_v then_o the_o prophet_n give_v he_o this_o as_o it_o

be_v yet_o we_o do_v but_o languish_v here_o but_o there_o be_v but_o few_o that_o know_v this_o so_o much_o y_o it_o more_o they_o ought_v we_o to_o note_v well_o this_o doctrine_n which_o i_o have_v here_o before_o touch_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o both_o in_o death_n and_o in_o all_o other_o affliction_n we_o be_v more_o accumber_v and_o trouble_v with_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n than_o with_o the_o evyll_n that_o we_o can_v feel_v if_o one_o be_v afflict_v with_o poverty_n so_o that_o he_o have_v hunger_n and_o thirst_n a_o other_o be_v strike_v with_o sickness_n and_o suffer_v great_a tourmente_n another_o be_v persecute_v of_o man_n so_o as_o he_o have_v no_o time_n of_o rest_n and_o more_o if_o in_o the_o end_n death_n come_v before_o our_o eye_n we_o ought_v to_o know_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o so_o much_o to_o be_v fear_v as_o the_o wrath_n and_o vengeance_n of_o god_n but_o man_n do_v clean_a contrary_n and_o this_o mark_n why_o i_o have_v say_v that_o we_o must_v note_v this_o doctrine_n the_o better_a because_o a_o man_n may_v see_v that_o the_o poor_a sick_a person_n and_o they_o that_o be_v afflict_v in_o what_o sort_n soever_o it_o be_v will_v cry_v alas_o one_o will_v cry_v the_o arm_n another_o will_v cry_v the_o leg_n the_o one_o here_o the_o other_o there_o but_o yet_o they_o come_v never_o to_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o evil_n and_o that_o

we_o to_o learn_v when_o we_o be_v beat_v with_o such_o rod_n as_o i_o have_v say_v to_o make_v we_o look_v upon_o the_o cause_n whence_o this_o evil_a procee_v which_o be_v that_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o feel_v our_o sin_n and_o that_o he_o sommon_v we_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v there_o come_v as_o it_o be_v before_o our_o judge_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o come_v there_o with_o sleyghte_n and_o mean_n of_o excuse_n but_o with_o frank_a and_o free_a confession_n and_o that_o the_o same_o be_v not_o only_o make_v with_o mouth_n or_o assent_v by_o writing_n but_o that_o we_o be_v wound_v even_o to_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o herte_n feel_v what_o it_o be_v to_o have_v do_v against_o the_o will_n of_o our_o god_n to_o have_v stir_v he_o up_o against_o we_o &_o to_o have_v make_v war_n against_o his_o justice_n this_o be_v it_o that_o we_o have_v to_o hold_v in_o mind_n when_o we_o see_v that_o the_o king_n ezechias_n be_v in_o such_o extremity_n of_o anguish_n because_o god_n do_v punish_v he_o for_o his_o sin_n yea_o and_o this_o we_o ought_v to_o mark_v well_o that_o though_o before_o he_o have_v protest_v that_o he_o have_v walk_v in_o purity_n and_o uprightness_n of_o life_n and_o that_o he_o have_v study_v all_o his_o life_n long_o to_o obey_v and_o please_v god_n nevertheless_o he_o rest_v not_o his_o mind_n upon_o his_o virtue_n nor_o his_o

fourthe_o what_o his_o life_n have_v be_v but_o he_o knowlege_v that_o rightfullye_o he_o be_v afflict_v so_o then_o we_o learn_v when_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o correct_v with_o his_o rod_n not_o to_o grudge_v at_o it_o as_o if_o he_o do_v we_o wrong_n as_o if_o he_o have_v no_o regard_n to_o our_o merit_n or_o as_o if_o he_o use_v great_a sharpness_n with_o we_o than_o we_o have_v

that_o be_v here_o set_v before_o we_o of_o the_o king_n ezechias_n for_o we_o have_v seen_v here_o before_o how_o he_o have_v frame_v all_o his_o life_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n he_o have_v a_o

though_o he_o do_v speak_v here_o but_o of_o one_o man_n alone_o yet_o we_o have_v thereby_o a_o good_a admonition_n of_o the_o shortness_n of_o our_o own_o life_n also_o truth_n it_o be_v that_o it_o

loe_o how_o the_o papist_n have_v treat_v of_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n so_o that_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v say_v unto_o they_o that_o god_n pardon_v our_o sin_n of_o his_o mere_a goodness_n this_o

with_o we_o as_o ezechias_n say_v here_o thou_o haste_v cast_v my_o sin_n behind_o thy_o back_n it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n have_v neither_o back_n nor_o stomach_n for_o we_o know_v that_o his_o

use_v this_o manner_n of_o speech_n y_fw-fr t_o god_n have_v cast_v all_o his_o sin_n behind_o his_o back_n now_o true_a it_o be_v that_o many_o time_n though_o god_n do_v pardon_v we_o our_o fault_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o cease_v to_o chastise_v we_o as_o it_o happen_v to_o david_n but_o that_o shall_v not_o be_v but_o for_o our_o commodity_n and_o profit_n to_o end_n that_o we_o may_v walk_v so_o much_o the_o more_o wary_o in_o time_n to_o come_v i_o say_v even_o now_o that_o god_n send_v his_o punishment_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o there_o remain_v always_o some_o mark_n to_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n then_o god_n will_v sure_o punyshe_v we_o although_o he_o be_v merciful_a unto_o us._n but_o these_o two_o thing_n be_v not_o contrariant_n that_o be_v to_o cast_v our_o sin_n behind_o his_o back_n and_o to_o receyve_v we_o by_o and_o by_o to_o mercy_n &_o make_v we_o prosper_v by_o his_o bless_v and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n not_o to_o nourish_v we_o in_o our_o idleness_n but_o to_o awake_v we_o &_o make_v we_o feel_v some_o sign_n of_o his_o wrath_n to_o prevent_v us._n yet_o nevertheless_o if_o he_o mean_v to_o declare_v unto_o we_o full_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n he_o will_v geve_v we_o oftentimes_o outward_a sign_n that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o will_v geve_v we_o such_o a_o taste_n of_o his_o goodness_n that_o we_o may_v perceive_v assure_o that_o he_o have_v show_v mercy_n unto_o we_o and_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o he_o shall_v use_v we_o with_o such_o gentleness_n and_o favour_n except_o he_o will_v examine_v our_o sin_n no_o more_o and_o that_o he_o full_o and_o perfect_o acquit_v we_o and_o that_o he_o require_v nothing_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v walk_v with_o he_o as_o be_v make_v at_o one_o and_o true_o reconcile_v unto_o his_o majesty_n loe_o thus_o god_n declare_v unto_o we_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n not_o only_o by_o his_o word_n or_o inwardlye_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n but_o also_o by_o the_o fruit_n that_o be_v to_o say_v when_o by_o his_o blessing_n he_o make_v we_o to_o prosper_v and_o when_o he_o handle_v we_o so_o favourable_o that_o we_o be_v compel_v to_o confess_v in_o our_o own_o conscience_n that_o he_o use_v a_o fatherly_a bounty_n towards_o us._n then_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v these_o sign_n let_v we_o conclude_v bold_o that_o god_n have_v pardon_v our_o sin_n and_o that_o he_o have_v cast_v they_o behind_o his_o back_n never_o to_o examine_v or_o think_v of_o they_o any_o more_o so_o then_o so_o oft_o as_o we_o be_v afflict_v of_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n let_v

to_o humble_v ourselves_o hereafter_o moreover_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n shall_v so_o much_o the_o more_o brightlye_o shine_v as_o he_o shall_v not_o only_o handle_v we_o with_o all_o savour_n touch_v our_o body_n but_o also_o in_o this_o that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v respect_n unto_o our_o sin_n and_o will_v show_v we_o that_o although_o we_o do_v provoke_v his_o wrath_n and_o give_v he_o occasion_n always_o to_o forsake_v we_o in_o our_o misery_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o handle_v we_o with_o rigour_n but_o that_o he_o will_v draw_v we_o unto_o he_o by_o his_o infinite_a mercy_n
