148._o psalm_n the_o prophet_n say_v that_o fire_n and_o hail_n snow_n and_o vapour_n stormy_a wind_n do_v execute_v his_o word_n and_o what_o be_v it_o to_o execute_v the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o to_o be_v rule_v and_o govern_v by_o his_o word_n it_o be_v to_o be_v at_o his_o beck_n and_o pleasure_n again_o in_o the_o 135._o psalm_n it_o be_v say_v that_o whatsoever_o please_v the_o lord_n that_o do_v he_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n in_o the_o sea_n and_o all_o the_o depth_n he_o bring_v up_o the_o cloud_n from_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o make_v the_o lightning_n with_o the_o rain_n he_o draw_v forth_o the_o wind_n out_o of_o his_o treasure_n and_o christ_n our_o saviour_n in_o the_o 6._o of_o math._n bid_v we_o learn_v how_o the_o lily_n of_o the_o field_n do_v grow_v they_o labour_v not_o neither_o spin_v and_o a_o little_a afterward_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o god_n do_v clothe_v the_o grass_n of_o the_o field_n these_o few_o place_n prove_v that_o god_n have_v a_o provident_a care_n to_o keep_v and_o govern_v even_o his_o lifeless_a creature_n not_o only_o general_o but_o also_o particular_o as_o cloud_n rain_n wind_n grass_n fire_n hail_n snow_n vapour_n lily_n and_o such_o like_a the_o like_a provident_a care_n he_o have_v for_o other_o of_o his_o creature_n who_o he_o have_v endue_v with_o the_o life_n and_o sense_n but_o not_o with_o reason_n and_o that_o liberty_n of_o choice_n whereof_o i_o speak_v before_o we_o read_v in_o the_o 147._o psalm_n that_o god_n give_v to_o beast_n their_o food_n and_o to_o the_o young_a raven_n that_o cry_v and_o in_o the_o 104._o psalm_n vers_fw-la 14._o the_o prophet_n say_v that_o god_n cause_v grass_n to_o grow_v for_o the_o cattle_n and_o afterward_o in_o the_o 27._o verse_n he_o say_v that_o all_o beast_n fowl_n and_o fish_n wait_v upon_o thou_o o_o lord_n that_o thou_o may_v give_v they_o food_n in_o due_a season_n thou_o give_v it_o to_o they_o and_o they_o gather_v it_o thou_o open_v thy_o hand_n and_o they_o be_v sill_v with_o good_a thing_n this_o also_o our_o saviour_n christ_n affirm_v in_o the_o 6._o of_o matthew_n say_v behold_v the_o fowl_n of_o the_o heaven_n for_o they_o sow_v not_o neither_o reap_v nor_o carry_v into_o the_o barn_n yet_o your_o heavenly_a father_n feed_v they_o and_o in_o the_o 10._o of_o math._n be_v not_o two_o sparrow_n sell_v for_o a_o farthing_n and_o one_o of_o they_o shall_v not_o fall_v on_o the_o ground_n without_o your_o father_n mean_v god_n by_o these_o few_o place_n you_o may_v see_v it_o sufficient_o prove_v that_o god_n have_v a_o provident_a care_n of_o every_o particular_a creature_n upon_o who_o he_o have_v not_o bestow_v y_fw-fr ●_o free_a liberty_n of_o choice_n whether_o they_o have_v not_o life_n or_o have_v life_n and_o sense_n and_o want_v reason_n now_o as_o for_o those_o creature_n to_o who_o god_n have_v give_v that_o gift_n of_o free_a choice_n which_o i_o say_v be_v angel_n and_o man_n some_o do_v think_v that_o god_n in_o truth_n have_v a_o special_a provident_a care_n over_o man_n who_o he_o make_v after_o his_o own_o image_n and_o likeness_n but_o not_o over_o other_o creature_n which_o opinion_n how_o false_a it_o be_v you_o may_v easy_o gather_v out_o of_o that_o i_o have_v already_o write_v other_o do_v make_v this_o to_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o man_n and_o man_n that_o god_n take_v a_o special_a care_n of_o the_o godly_a but_o cast_v away_o all_o care_n of_o the_o wicked_a but_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v manifest_o overthrow_v this_o opinion_n in_o the_o 5._o of_o math._n christ_n our_o saviour_n teach_v we_o that_o our_o heavenly_a father_n make_v his_o sun_n to_o arise_v on_o the_o evil_a and_o on_o the_o good_a and_o send_v rain_n on_o the_o just_a and_o unjust_a and_o paul_n in_o his_o first_o epistle_n to_o timothy_n the_o 4._o chapter_n say_v that_o god_n be_v saviour_n of_o all_o man_n special_o of_o those_o that_o believe_v whereof_o i_o gather_v that_o god_n have_v a_o special_a care_n of_o those_o that_o be_v he_o but_o yet_o not_o so_o as_o that_o he_o leave_v y_o e_o wicked_a to_o be_v rule_v by_o chance_n &_o fortune_n for_o if_o god_n have_v a_o care_n of_o those_o thing_n and_o creature_n that_o the_o wicked_a possess_v as_o of_o their_o cattle_n grass_n and_o corn_n and_o such_o like_a sure_o he_o provide_v also_o for_o they_o the_o owner_n &_o master_n of_o those_o creature_n neither_o can_v he_o be_v provident_a &_o careful_a for_o the_o godly_a but_o he_o must_v also_o govern_v and_o rule_v the_o wicked_a according_a to_o the_o pleasure_n of_o his_o divine_a power_n for_o as_o a_o prince_n and_o general_n of_o a_o army_n be_v not_o only_o careful_a for_o the_o troop_n and_o company_n of_o soldier_n that_o be_v in_o his_o host_n but_o also_o for_o munition_n &_o victual_n necessary_a for_o they_o that_o he_o may_v have_v his_o army_n so_o furnish_v that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o terror_n to_o the_o enemy_n and_o may_v keep_v they_o among_o who_o he_o lie_v encamp_v in_o such_o dutiful_a obedience_n that_o they_o may_v be_v ready_a to_o do_v whatsoever_o his_o captain_n and_o officer_n command_v they_o so_o can_v it_o not_o be_v that_o god_n do_v provide_v for_o his_o church_n but_o he_o must_v also_o moderate_a and_o govern_v all_o those_o thing_n without_o which_o his_o church_n can_v be_v here_o upon_o the_o earth_n such_o thing_n as_o appartaine_a to_o the_o nourishment_n clothing_n safe_a and_o quiet_a harbour_v of_o the_o member_n of_o the_o church_n they_o therefore_o who_o be_v not_o of_o the_o true_a church_n be_v yet_o for_o the_o benefit_n of_o god_n church_n to_o be_v rule_v by_o his_o providence_n so_o be_v the_o patriarch_n say_v to_o have_v find_v favour_n in_o the_o eye_n of_o infidel_n for_o that_o the_o lord_n do_v rule_v and_o move_v the_o heart_n of_o infidel_n which_o way_n it_o please_v he_o now_o how_o god_n rule_v not_o only_o every_o particular_a man_n but_o also_o all_o the_o several_a action_n of_o man_n be_v prove_v by_o that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o 16_o of_o the_o proverb_n commit_v thy_o work_n unto_o the_o lord_n and_o thy_o thought_n shall_v be_v direct_v and_o by_o that_o also_o which_o be_v in_o the_o 4._o of_o james_n go_v to_o now_o you_o that_o say_v to_o day_n or_o to_o morrow_n we_o will_v go_v into_o such_o a_o city_n and_o continue_v there_o a_o year_n and_o buy_v and_o sell_v and_o get_v gain_n and_o yet_o you_o can_v tell_v what_o shall_v be_v to_o morrow_n for_o what_o be_v your_o life_n it_o be_v even_o a_o vapour_n it_o appear_v for_o a_o little_a time_n and_o afterward_o vanquisheth_z away_o for_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o say_v if_o the_o lord_n will_v and_o if_o we_o live_v we_o will_v do_v this_o or_o that_o thus_o james_n speak_v of_o the_o action_n or_o do_n of_o man_n affirm_v that_o god_n rule_v they_o all_o so_o that_o without_o his_o will_n we_o can_v do_v nothing_o no_o not_o so_o much_o as_o pass_v from_o one_o place_n to_o another_o and_o paul_n coufess_v that_o he_o be_v often_o hinder_v and_o stay_v by_o god_n that_o he_o can_v not_o go_v to_o those_o church_n he_o purpose_v until_o he_o have_v his_o journey_n grant_v he_o by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n god_n therefore_o rule_v all_o the_o several_a action_n of_o all_o man_n i_o will_v use_v only_o two_o example_n to_o illustrate_v and_o make_v plain_a this_o most_o true_a doctrine_n that_o god_n govern_v the_o several_a action_n of_o all_o man_n both_o good_a and_o bad_a in_o the_o history_n of_o joseph_n many_o thing_n to_o this_o purpose_n be_v to_o be_v find_v the_o end_n of_o that_o history_n be_v that_o which_o joseph_n speak_v of_o genesis_n 50._o you_o think_v evil_a against_o i_o say_v he_o to_o his_o brethren_n but_o god_n dispose_v it_o to_o good_a in_o this_o history_n these_o man_n and_o their_o several_a action_n be_v to_o be_v weigh_v first_o father_n jacob_n than_o the_o brethren_n of_o joseph_n joseph_n himself_o the_o ishmaelite_n to_o who_o he_o be_v sell_v that_o light_a huswife_n his_o mistress_n putiphar_n wife_n pharaoh_n and_o his_o servant_n the_o action_n of_o all_o these_o person_n be_v diverse_a and_o very_a different_a one_o from_o another_o some_o of_o they_o be_v laudable_a other_o detestable_a and_o yet_o some_o of_o those_o better_a than_o other_o and_o some_o of_o those_o action_n neither_o to_o be_v altogether_o allow_v nor_o dispraise_v &_o yet_o as_o joseph_n witness_v god_n by_o his_o providence_n rule_v &_o dispose_v they_o all_o both_o man_n and_o their_o action_n to_o josephs_n good_a so_o as_o david_n say_v psalm_n 105._o that_o god_n send_v a_o man_n before_o
