of_o our_o neighbour_n we_o be_v to_o endeavour_v his_o thrive_a and_o prosperity_n in_o these_o outward_a good_n good_a thing_n and_o to_o that_o end_n be_v willing_a to_o assist_v and_o far_o he_o in_o all_o honest_a way_n of_o improve_a or_o preserve_v they_o by_o any_o neighbourly_a and_o friendly_a office_n opportunity_n of_o this_o do_v many_o time_n fall_v out_o a_o man_n may_v sometime_o

any_o loss_n or_o damage_n to_o ourselves_o and_o then_o we_o be_v to_o do_v they_o even_o to_o our_o rich_a neighbour_n those_o that_o be_v as_o wealthy_a perhaps_o much_o more_o so_o as_o ourselves_o for_o though_o charity_n do_v not_o bind_v we_o to_o give_v to_o those_o that_o want_v it_o less_o than_o ourselves_o yet_o whenever_o we_o can_v further_o their_o profit_n without_o

to_o hazard_v that_o light_a damage_n then_o lose_v he_o that_o great_a advantage_n 2._o but_o towards_o our_o poor_a brother_n charity_n tie_v we_o to_o much_o more_o we_o be_v there_o only_o to_o consider_v the_o supply_n of_o his_o want_n and_o not_o poor_a to_o stick_v at_o part_v with_o what_o be_v our_o own_o to_o relieve_v he_o but_o as_o far_o as_o we_o be_v able_a give_v free_o what_o be_v necessary_a to_o he_o this_o duty_n of_o almsgiving_n be_v perfect_o necessary_a for_o the_o approve_v our_o love_n not_o only_o to_o man_n but_o even_o to_o god_n himself_o as_o st._n john_n

of_o god_n in_o he_o it_o be_v vain_a for_o he_o to_o pretend_v to_o love_v either_o god_n or_o man_n who_o love_v his_o money_n so_o much_o better_a that_o he_o will_v see_v his_o poor_a brother_n who_o be_v a_o man_n and_o bear_v the_o image_n of_o god_n suffer_v all_o extremity_n rather_o than_o part_v with_o any_o thing_n to_o relieve_v he_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o performance_n of_o this_o duty_n be_v high_o acceptable_a with_o god_n as_o well_o as_o with_o man_n 3._o it_o be_v call_v heb._n 13._o 16._o a_o sacrifice_n wherewith_o god_n be_v well_o please_v and_o again_o phil._n 4._o 18._o st._n paul_n call_v their_o alm_n to_o he_o a_o sacrifice_n acceptable_a wel-pleasing_a to_o god_n and_o the_o church_n have_v always_o look_v on_o it_o as_o such_o and_o therefore_o join_v it_o with_o the_o soleume_v part_n of_o worship_n the_o holy_a sacrament_n but_o because_o even_a sacrifice_n themselves_o under_o the_o law_n be_v often_o make_v unacceptable_a by_o be_v maim_a and_o blemish_v it_o will_v here_o be_v necessary_a to_o inquire_v what_o be_v the_o due_a qualification_n of_o this_o sacrifice_n 4._o of_o these_o there_o be_v some_o that_o respect_v the_o give_v

be_v from_o his_o bounty_n alone_o that_o we_o receive_v all_o our_o plenty_n and_o this_o be_v the_o proper_a way_n of_o express_v our_o thankfulness_n for_o it_o for_o as_o the_o psalmist_n say_v our_o good_n extend_v not_o unto_o god_n psal._n 16._o 2._o that_o tribute_n which_o we_o desire_v to_o pay_v out_o of_o our_o estate_n we_o can_v pay_v to_o his_o person_n it_o be_v the_o poor_a that_o be_v as_o it_o be_v his_o proxey_n and_o receiver_n and_o therefore_o what_o ever_o we_o shall_v by_o way_n of_o thankfulness_n give_v back_o again_o unto_o god_n our_o alm_n be_v the_o way_n of_o do_v it_o second_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o neighbour_n the_o motive_n must_v be_v a_o true_a love_n and_o compassion_n to_o he_o a_o tender_a fellow-feeling_n of_o his_o want_n and_o desire_v of_o his_o comfort_n and_o relief_n three_o in_o respect_n of_o ourselves_o the_o motive_n be_v to_o be_v the_o hope_n of_o that_o eternal_a reward_n promise_v to_o this_o performance_n this_o christ_n point_v out_o to_o we_o when_o he_o bid_v we_o lay_v up_o our_o treasure_n in_o heaven_n mat._n 6._o 20._o and_o to_o make_v we_o friend_n of_o the_o mammon_n of_o unrighteousness_n that_o

shall_v be_v no_o contention_n between_o he_o and_o lot_n because_o they_o be_v brethren_n gen._n 13._o 8._o and_o though_o by_o brethren_n there_o be_v mean_v only_a cousin_n yet_o that_o help_v the_o more_o strong_o to_o conclude_v that_o this_o near_a relation_n be_v in_o reason_n to_o be_v a_o great_a bar_n to_o strife_n as_o also_o that_o this_o kindness_n be_v in_o some_o degree_n to_o be_v extend_v to_o all_o that_o have_v any_o nearness_n of_o blood_n to_o we_o 2._o this_o kindness_n and_o love_n between_o brethren_n and_o sister_n ought_v to_o be_v very_o firm_o ground_v brethren_n in_o their_o heart_n if_o it_o be_v not_o they_o will_v be_v of_o all_o other_o in_o most_o danger_n of_o disagree_v for_o the_o continual_a conversation_n that_o be_v among_o they_o whilst_o they_o be_v at_o home_n in_o the_o father_n house_n will_v be_v apt_a to_o minister_v some_o occasion_n of_o jar_n beside_o the_o equality_n that_o be_v among_o they_o in_o respect_n of_o

he_o have_v most_o of_o his_o father_n love_n and_o rachel_n envy_v her_o sister_n leah_n because_o she_o be_v fruitful_a therefore_o for_o the_o prevent_n of_o such_o temptation_n let_v all_o who_o have_v brethren_n and_o sister_n possess_v their_o mind_n with_o a_o great_a and_o real_a kindness_n to_o they_o look_v on_o they_o as_o part_n of_o themselves_o and_o then_o they_o will_v never_o think_v fit_a either_o to_o quarrel_v with_o they_o or_o to_o envy_v they_o any_o advantage_n any_o more_o than_o one_o part_n of_o the_o body_n do_v another_o of_o the_o same_o body_n but_o will_v
