thou_o must_v live_v humble_o in_o another_o place_n the_o air_n be_v more_o healthful_a or_o the_o country_n more_o pleasant_a but_o here_o thy_o stand_n be_v appoint_v thou_o will_v wish_v that_o

that_o unto_o all_o which_o be_v every_o where_o common_a when_o we_o hear_v paul_n complain_v in_o that_o golden_a age_n wherein_o all_o virtue_n flourish_v that_o true_a heart_a brethren_n be_v so_o hard_o to_o find_v let_v not_o we_o discourage_v ourselves_o if_o at_o this_o day_n our_o estate_n be_v alike_o only_o let_v every_o man_n take_v heed_n to_o himself_o that_o he_o be_v not_o worthy_o

this_o place_n as_o in_o many_o other_o we_o see_v what_o a_o earnest_a care_n paul_n have_v to_o beautify_v godly_a minister_n not_o so_o much_o for_o their_o cause_n as_o that_o it_o belong_v to_o the_o whole_a church_n that_o such_o shall_v be_v love_v and_o reverence_v and_o be_v in_o great_a authority_n and_o i_o trust_v l_o myself_o this_o also_o he_o add_v jest_n they_o shall_v think_v that_o any_o thing_n have_v happen_v which_o may_v change_v the_o purpose_n of_o his_o come_n whereof_o before_o he_o have_v make_v mention_n yet_o always_o he_o speak_v with_o a_o condition_n if_o it_o please_v the_o lord_n for_o although_o he_o hope_v of_o deliverance_n from_o the_o lord_n because_o we_o say_v there_o be_v no_o certain_a promise_n that_o his_o hope_n be_v firm_o settle_v but_o hang_v as_o it_o be_v upon_o the_o secret_a counsel_n of_o god_n 25_o but_o i_o have_v think_v it_o necessary_a to_o send_v unto_o you_o epaphroditus_n my_o brother_n and_o companion_n in_o labour_n and_o fellow_n soldier_n but_o your_o apostle_n and_o the_o minister_n of_o my_o necessity_n 26_o because_o he_o long_v after_o you_o all_o and_o be_v full_a of_o heaviness_n because_o you_o have_v hear_v that_o he_o have_v be_v sick_a 27_o and_o true_o he_o be_v sick_a very_o near_o unto_o death_n but_o god_n have_v mercy_n on_o he_o &_o not_o on_o he_o only_o but_o on_o i_o also_o that_o i_o shall_v not_o have_v sorrow_n upon_o sorrow_n 28_o i_o send_v he_o therefore_o the_o more_o diligent_o that_o when_o you_o see_v he_o you_o may_v again_o rejoice_v and_o i_o may_v be_v the_o less_o sorrowful_a 29_o receyve_v he_o therefore_o in_o the_o lord_n with_o all_o gladness_n and_o make_v much_o of_o such_o 30_o because_o that_o for_o the_o work_n of_o christ_n he_o be_v near_o unto_o

by_o promise_v his_o own_o come_n and_o the_o come_n of_o timotheus_n present_o also_o he_o strengthen_v they_o send_v ehaphroditus_n afore_o lest_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n while_o he_o be_v certain_a what_o will_v become_v of_o himself_o for_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o tarry_n they_o shall_v want_v their_o pastor_n who_o may_v defend_v their_o well_o order_a estate_n he_o commend_v epaphroditus_n by_o many_o name_n that_o he_o be_v a_o brother_n and_o a_o helper_n in_o the_o business_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o he_o be_v his_o fellow_n soldier_n by_o which_o word_n he_o express_v what_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v namely_o that_o they_o must_v be_v in_o continual_a warfare_n for_o satan_n will_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o promote_v the_o gospel_n without_o fight_v therefore_o let_v they_o know_v who_o prepare_v themselves_o to_o edify_v the_o church_n that_o there_o be_v war_n proclaim_v and_o ready_a against_o they_o this_o true_o be_v common_a unto_o all_o christian_n to_o serve_v as_o soldier_n in_o the_o tent_n of_o christ_n because_o satan_n be_v the_o enemy_n of_o we_o all_o but_o especial_o it_o appertain_v to_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n who_o lead_v the_o army_n and_o carry_v the_o standard_n yet_o more_o proper_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o paul_n to_o boast_v of_o his_o warfare_n who_o be_v exercise_v in_o all_o kind_n of_o battle_n yea_o even_o miraculous_o therefore_o paul_n commend_v epaphroditus_n because_o he_o be_v partaker_n with_o he_o of_o his_o strive_n the_o name_n of_o apostle_n be_v here_o general_o as_o in_o many_o other_o place_n take_v for_o every_o evangelist_n except_o any_o have_v rather_o take_v it_o for_o a_o messenger_n send_v from_o the_o philippian_n that_o these_o two_o may_v jointlye_o be_v read_v together_o a_o messenger_n send_v to_o minister_v unto_o paul_n but_o the_o former_a sense_n in_o my_o judgement_n agree_v better_a he_o put_v this_o also_o among_o his_o praise_n the_o he_o minister_v unto_o he_o in_o prison_n of_o which_o thing_n we_o shall_v speak_v more_o ample_o afterward_o 26._o long_v after_o you_o a_o sign_n of_o a_o true_a

27._o but_o god_n have_v mercy_n on_o he_o he_o express_v the_o grievousnes_n of_o the_o disease_n because_o epaphroditus_n be_v sick_a without_o hope_n of_o life_n that_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n in_o restore_v his_o health_n may_v appear_v more_o evident_o but_o it_o be_v a_o marvel_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v account_v the_o prolong_n of_o epaphroditus_n his_o life_n in_o the_o number_n of_o god_n mercy_n when_o
what_o his_o joy_n be_v namely_o because_o they_o be_v come_v into_o the_o fellowship_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o be_v they_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v well_o know_v to_o be_v do_v by_o faith_n for_o the_o gospel_n do_v nothing_o pertain_v unto_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v enjoy_v it_o until_o it_o be_v receive_v of_o we_o by_o faith_n although_o the_o name_n of_o

constant_o to_o go_v forward_o unto_o the_o end_n for_o many_o man_n be_v slow_a &_o hard_o to_o obey_v &_o more_o do_v faint_a by_o lightness_n &_o inconstancy_n 6_o be_v thus_o persuade_v to_o the_o

acknowledge_v of_o god_n his_o benefit_n when_o of_o they_o we_o conceive_v a_o matter_n to_o hope_v well_o for_o the_o time_n afterward_o for_o since_o they_o be_v testimony_n both_o of_o his_o

therefore_o he_o will_v finish_v that_o he_o have_v begin_v in_o us._n isai_n 64.8_o when_o i_o say_v we_o be_v the_o work_n of_o his_o hand_n i_o do_v not_o take_v it_o only_o of_o his_o creation_n

of_o the_o philippian_n i_o answer_v that_o every_o man_n have_v a_o far_a other_o certainty_n of_o his_o own_o salvation_n than_o of_o other_o man_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v unto_o i_o a_o witness_n of_o my_o call_n as_o also_o to_o every_o one_o of_o the_o elect_a touch_v other_o we_o have_v no_o testimony_n but_o from_o the_o outward_a effect_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v so_o far_o as_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n do_v show_v itself_o forth_o in_o they_o unto_o our_o knowledge_n there_o be_v therefore_o a_o great_a difference_n for_o the_o certainty_n of_o faith_n remain_v close_o wtin_n &_o disperse_v not_o itself_o to_o other_o but_o whersoever_o we_o behold_v what_o token_n of_o god_n his_o election_n may_v be_v apprehend_v by_o we_o forthwith_o we_o must_v be_v stir_v up_o to_o conceive_v a_o good_a hope_n as_o well_o lest_o we_o shall_v be_v envious_a towards_o our_o neighbour_n &_o deprive_v they_o of_o the_o equal_a &_o gentle_a judgement_n of_o love_n as_o also_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v thankful_a unto_o god_n but_o this_o be_v a_o general_a rule_n as_o well_o in_o we_o as_o in_o other_o that_o distrust_v our_o own_o strength_n we_o shall_v altogether_o depend_v upon_o god_n only_o until_o the_o day_n of_o jesus_n christ_n this_o be_v especial_o to_o be_v understand_v unto_o the_o end_n of_o their_o strive_n &_o that_o strive_v be_v

of_o grace_n unto_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o flesh_n for_o although_o they_o that_o be_v deliver_v out_o of_o this_o mortal_a body_n fight_v no_o more_o with_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n &_o be_v without_o danger_n of_o the_o weapon_n as_o they_o say_v yet_o it_o shall_v be_v no_o absurdity_n if_o they_o be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o the_o way_n go_v forward_o for_o as_o yet_o they_o be_v
