which_o be_v make_v to_o the_o image_n of_o god_n but_o that_o which_o worst_o be_v we_o deny_v and_o blaspheme_v he_o with_o the_o tongue_n and_o mouth_n which_o he_o give_v we_o to_o glorify_v and_o confess_v he_o and_o we_o make_v of_o our_o member_n which_o shall_v be_v the_o weapon_n of_o justice_n and_o holiness_n the_o weapon_n of_o unrighteousness_n and_o iniquity_n jesus_n christ_n say_v that_o out_o of_o the_o abundance_n of_o the_o heart_n the_o mouth_n speak_v and_o that_o the_o good_a 12._o mat._n 12._o man_n out_o of_o the_o good_a treasure_n of_o his_o heart_n utter_v good_a thing_n and_o the_o wicked_a man_n utter_v evil_a thing_n wherefore_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n jesus_n christ_n convince_v the_o scribe_n and_o 12._o mat._n 12._o pharisee_n of_o the_o malice_n &_o perverseness_n of_o their_o heart_n &_o by_o their_o own_o word_n say_v thou_o shall_v be_v justify_v that_o be_v to_o say_v know_v to_o be_v such_o as_o thou_o be_v and_o be_v declare_v just_a or_o unjust_a condemn_v or_o absolve_v by_o thy_o do_n and_o say_n for_o if_o they_o have_v have_v jesus_n christ_n in_o their_o heart_n they_o have_v not_o have_v belzebub_n in_o their_o mouth_n for_o as_o saint_n paul_n witness_v no_o man_n can_v say_v the_o lord_n jesus_n but_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n no_o man_n speak_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n can_v call_v jesus_n sect._n 1._o cor._n 12._o sect._n execrable_a nor_o speak_v evil_a of_o he_o nor_o blaspheme_v he_o wherefore_o for_o a_o full_a conclusion_n if_o we_o will_v of_o right_o be_v count_v christian_n before_o god_n &_o before_o his_o elect_a and_o his_o church_n it_o be_v necessary_a to_o lay_v this_o foundation_n that_o as_o it_o be_v requisite_a to_o have_v a_o true_a faith_n plant_v in_o heart_n to_o be_v incorporate_v in_o he_o and_o his_o church_n so_o must_v we_o confess_v he_o otherwise_o what_o else_o be_v our_o faith_n but_o a_o dream_n a_o fantasy_n &_o a_o foolish_a imagination_n of_o our_o own_o brain_n but_o the_o faith_n of_o a_o christian_n be_v not_o only_o as_o a_o speculative_a knowledge_n without_o fall_v to_o action_n &_o put_v nothing_o to_o effect_v for_o it_o can_v be_v in_o no_o place_n wtout_fw-fr show_v itself_o it_o fare_v so_o with_o it_o as_o jeremie_n witness_v that_o he_o have_v prove_v it_o in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o he_o willing_o sometime_o have_v keep_v in_o see_v as_o seem_v to_o he_o that_o it_o profit_v not_o much_o when_o he_o utter_v it_o but_o that_o it_o be_v have_v in_o scorn_n and_o he_o set_v himself_o in_o displeasure_n and_o danger_n of_o death_n among_o the_o wicked_a which_o be_v harden_v more_o and_o more_o therefore_o he_o say_v i_o will_v make_v no_o more_o mention_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o will_v faith_n the_o virtue_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n &_o of_o faith_n speak_v no_o more_o in_o his_o name_n then_o his_o word_n be_v in_o my_o heart_n as_o a_o burn_a fire_n shut_v up_o in_o my_o bone_n and_o i_o fail_v and_o be_v weary_a with_o forbear_v that_o i_o can_v stay_v no_o more_o he_o can_v not_o resist_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o the_o zeal_n that_o he_o have_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n inflame_v he_o so_o that_o he_o can_v hold_v his_o peace_n see_v then_o that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v so_o vehement_a a_o fire_n whereby_o faith_n be_v inflame_v how_o be_v it_o possible_a but_o the_o flane_n light_n and_o heat_n or_o at_o the_o least_o some_o little_a smoke_n will_v show_v forth_o for_o when_o as_o faith_n be_v almost_o whole_o extinguish_v &_o yet_o there_o remain_v some_o little_a spark_n be_v it_o not_o possible_a but_o that_o it_o will_v cast_v some_o little_a smoke_n as_o the_o flax_n &_o brand_n with_o yet_o smoke_n while_o there_o be_v yet_o a_o little_a fire_n or_o have_v be_v late_o i_o say_v not_o this_o to_o favour_n and_o stir_v up_o more_o a_o sect._n sect._n sort_n of_o rash_a and_o rage_a spirit_n which_o without_o any_o wit_n or_o discretion_n will_v counterfeit_v to_o be_v zealous_a professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o will_v speak_v of_o all_o matter_n and_o cry_v out_o against_o idol_n without_o measure_n and_o without_o seek_v occasion_n &_o consider_v circumstance_n which_o seem_v to_o edification_n but_o serve_v only_o to_o trouble_v the_o weak_a and_o to_o put_v they_o in_o danger_n which_o true_o fear_v god_n and_o to_o colour_n their_o fury_n and_o madness_n they_o allege_v the_o zeal_n of_o the_o prophet_n &_o apostle_n &_o the_o feruentnes_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o they_o can_v keep_v in_o wherein_o they_o declare_v themselves_o rather_o to_o resemble_v that_o glorious_a elihu_n the_o buzite_n who_o be_v one_o of_o the_o comforter_n or_o rather_o discomforter_n of_o job_n then_o to_o hieremy_n anatathite_n for_o they_o use_v the_o same_o talk_n &_o say_v as_o he_o do_v i_o be_o full_a of_o word_n and_o the_o spirit_n within_o i_o constrain_v i_o behold_v my_o stomach_n be_v as_o the_o wine_n which_o have_v no_o vent_n and_o be_v as_o new_a vessel_n the_o break_v i_o will_v speak_v therefore_o &_o breathe_v myself_o they_o be_v like_a to_o new_a wine_n with_o have_v not_o yet_o wrought_v &_o can_v be_v contain_v within_o the_o vessel_n but_o it_o break_v they_o or_o else_o must_v have_v vent_n but_o as_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n can_v be_v idle_a in_o sect._n sect._n man_n heart_n so_o do_v it_o not_o enforce_v man_n beyond_o the_o bond_n of_o christian_a modesty_n he_o alow_v not_o the_o zeal_n without_o spiritual_a knowledge_n &_o wisdom_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o prophet_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o prophet_n as_o he_o 17._o rom._n 10._o 1._o cor._n 14._o act._n 9_o 13._o 19_o 21._o act._n 17._o himself_o have_v show_v it_o by_o experience_n for_o although_o he_o be_v excellent_a in_o all_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n above_o other_o nevertheless_o he_o always_o submit_v himself_o to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o church_n and_o never_o despise_v the_o council_n of_o his_o brethren_n as_o it_o appear_v in_o that_o which_o be_v do_v in_o that_o church_n of_o damas_n antioch_n jerusalem_n &_o ephesus_n &_o when_o he_o be_v in_o the_o town_n of_o athens_n tarry_v for_o silas_n &_o timotheus_n his_o spirit_n be_v stir_v up_o in_o himself_o see_v the_o town_n so_o much_o give_v to_o idolatry_n wherefore_o he_o dispute_v in_o the_o assembly_n with_o the_o jew_n and_o with_o those_o that_o fear_v god_n &_o every_o day_n in_o the_o mark_v &_o public_a place_n with_o those_z with_o by_o chance_n come_v unto_o he_o but_o he_o cry_v not_o out_o in_o the_o street_n like_o a_o mad_a man_n he_o cry_v not_o against_o the_o idol_n without_o reason_n he_o run_v not_o into_o the_o temple_n to_o break_v &_o beat_v they_o down_o also_o he_o go_v not_o to_o do_v reverence_n unto_o they_o &_o be_v wary_a enough_o to_o give_v any_o sign_n either_o in_o deed_n or_o word_n whereby_o any_o may_v judge_v that_o he_o have_v they_o in_o honour_n or_o any_o estimation_n he_o make_v no_o conscience_n to_o enter_v into_o the_o temple_n and_o to_o behold_v their_o altar_n and_o idol_n but_o he_o go_v not_o thither_o with_o the_o idolater_n when_o they_o make_v their_o sacrifice_n to_o please_v they_o and_o for_o fear_n of_o offend_v the_o athenian_n but_o contrariwise_o he_o go_v thither_o to_o find_v occasion_n to_o draw_v they_o from_o their_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n which_o he_o condemn_v by_o his_o public_a testimony_n but_o not_o without_o great_a reason_n and_o christian_n wisdom_n and_o modesty_n so_o then_o as_o i_o can_v allow_v these_o envious_a sect._n sect._n frantic_a &_o offensive_a person_n so_o will_v i_o not_o condemn_v all_o those_o which_o show_v not_o the_o like_a zeal_n as_o saint_n paul_n do_v for_o i_o know_v where_o one_o may_v find_v such_o but_o i_o speak_v especial_o against_o those_o wise_a spirit_n which_o fear_v so_o great_o to_o fall_v into_o any_o danger_n for_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o they_o govern_v themselves_o so_o wary_o that_o they_o suffer_v not_o to_o pass_v from_o they_o any_o little_a shadow_n of_o smoke_n whereby_o one_o may_v judge_v that_o there_o be_v not_o one_o only_a spark_n of_o faith_n in_o their_o heart_n for_o they_o fear_v so_o much_o that_o any_o shall_v know_v that_o there_o be_v any_o fire_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o
