6_o my_o next_o observation_n in_o this_o general_a compass_n be_v that_o jonas_n be_v here_o describe_v to_o have_v sin_v once_o again_o this_o plentiful_o appear_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n &_o so_o it_o do_v in_o this_o last_o chapter_n by_o the_o reproof_n of_o god_n himself_o use_v towards_o he_o and_o the_o word_n of_o my_o text_n do_v necessary_o include_v it_o for_o to_o be_v grieve_v at_o the_o lord_n will_v and_o to_o be_v angry_a at_o his_o work_n be_v a_o very_a high_a transgression_n and_o so_o much_o the_o high_a because_o it_o be_v in_o a_o prophet_n a_o sanctify_a servant_n sequester_v for_o god_n business_n and_o attendance_n on_o himself_o more_o enlighten_v then_o ordinary_a and_o better_o acquaint_v with_o divine_a mystery_n than_o other_o man_n then_o from_o this_o man_n it_o be_v evident_a as_o well_o as_o from_o david_n from_o solomon_n from_o josiah_n from_o hezechiah_n from_o peter_n that_o the_o great_a in_o this_o life_n fall_v 24.16_o and_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o sin_v not_o the_o just_a man_n do_v fall_v seven_o time_n and_o arise_v again_o in_o many_o thing_n we_o sin_v all_o 1.8_o say_v the_o apostle_n saint_n james._n and_o saint_n john_n do_v second_v it_o if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v no_o sin_n we_o deceive_v ourselves_o and_o there_o be_v no_o truth_n in_o us._n jonas_n be_v once_o free_v and_o deliver_v from_o his_o sin_n by_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o purge_v he_o by_o a_o suffering_n be_v a_o second_o time_n in_o and_o yet_o remain_v god_n servant_n and_o a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n clean_o contrary_a to_o that_o heresy_n which_o the_o novatian_n hold_v 6.35_o who_o deny_v repentance_n to_o sin_n after_o baptism_n and_o seclude_v offender_n from_o acceptance_n into_o the_o congregation_n among_o the_o faithful_a much_o impeach_v god_n mercy_n and_o lay_v a_o intolerable_a burden_n upon_o man_n conscience_n why_o shall_v the_o servant_n be_v hard_a where_o the_o master_n be_v easy_a and_o gentle_a where_o the_o wise_a owner_n be_v well_o please_v why_o be_v the_o steward_n straight_o when_o he_o who_o it_o most_o concern_v have_v proclaim_v by_o his_o prophet_n 18.21.22_o that_o if_o a_o sinner_n repent_v be_v it_o once_o or_o be_v it_o often_o from_o the_o bottom_n of_o his_o hart_n god_n will_v put_v away_o his_o sin_n quite_o out_o of_o his_o remembrance_n indeed_o from_o the_o fall_v of_o the_o old_a patriarch_n we_o shall_v not_o learn_v to_o adventure_v upon_o iniquity_n with_o greediness_n and_o boldness_n lest_o presume_v we_o come_v short_a of_o that_o which_o be_v grant_v unto_o they_o for_o if_o we_o will_v provoke_v god_n in_o hope_n of_o that_o which_o in_o likelihood_n will_v never_o be_v give_v to_o we_o because_o we_o will_v so_o provoke_v he_o who_o can_v tell_v whether_o the_o lord_n will_v turn_v and_o repent_v and_o abate_v his_o fury_n the_o end_n wherefore_o the_o example_n of_o fall_n in_o the_o great_a man_n be_v propose_v to_o our_o read_n be_v not_o to_o encourage_v we_o to_o ill_a for_o that_o be_v to_o abuse_v the_o kindness_n of_o god_n and_o out_o of_o a_o good_a flower_n to_o suck_v deadly_a poison_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n too_o common_a for_o libertine_n and_o carnal_a man_n so_o to_o apply_v good_a to_o evil_n many_o will_v fall_v with_o david_n say_v saint_n austen_n 50._o and_o will_v not_o arise_v with_o david_n there_o be_v not_o propose_v to_o thou_o any_o example_n of_o fall_v but_o of_o arise_v when_o thou_o be_v fall_v take_v heed_n thou_o do_v not_o fall_v let_v not_o the_o slip_n of_o the_o great_a be_v the_o delight_n of_o the_o lesser_a but_o let_v the_o fall_v of_o the_o great_a be_v a_o tremble_a to_o the_o lesser_a what_o he_o there_o say_v of_o david_n may_v most_o fit_o be_v apply_v to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o patriarch_n and_o other_o prophet_n that_o by_o any_o thing_n of_o they_o we_o must_v not_o be_v entice_v to_o disobedience_n 7_o saint_n chrysostome_n take_v occasion_n by_o david_n 6._o of_o who_o austen_n also_o speak_v to_o draw_v a_o threefold_a benefit_n from_o the_o example_n of_o his_o transgression_n which_o i_o think_v not_o amiss_o to_o be_v mention_v in_o this_o place_n david_n say_v he_o for_o three_o reason_n be_v suffer_v to_o go_v astray_o first_o that_o he_o may_v make_v the_o righteous_a man_n to_o look_v more_o earnest_o to_o his_o way_n he_o perhaps_o say_v to_o himself_o i_o be_o a_o religious_a man_n i_o be_o famous_a for_o many_o merit_n now_o i_o have_v do_v those_o thing_n which_o appertain_v to_o the_o garland_n deceive_v not_o thyself_o say_v he_o thou_o have_v do_v no_o more_o than_o david_n his_o meaning_n be_v that_o if_o such_o captain_n and_o leader_n in_o the_o faith_n so_o gracious_a with_o the_o high_a so_o acceptable_a in_o god_n sight_n yet_o by_o humane_a infirmity_n have_v fall_v and_o fall_v notorious_o then_o no_o man_n shall_v be_v proud_a none_o sensles_o secure_a no_o

thither_o nothing_o may_v come_v out_o thence_o which_o be_v not_o weigh_v and_o balance_v and_o that_o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o cause_n why_o the_o oversight_n of_o the_o best_a be_v make_v
