in_o the_o cause_n of_o their_o salvation_n and_o put_v confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v in_o the_o outward_a work_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a &_o moral_a law_n and_o that_o his_o

rejoice_v in_o christ_n and_o not_o to_o put_v any_o confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n the_o second_o reason_n be_v frame_v thus_o if_o any_o man_n may_v put_v confidence_n in_o outward_a thing_n than_o i_o much_o more_o but_o not_o i_o therefore_o no_o man_n the_o proposition_n or_o first_o part_n of_o the_o reason_n be_v propound_v in_o the_o 4._o v_o and_o confirm_v in_o the_o five_o and_o six_o the_o second_o part_n or_o assumption_n yet_o i_o do_v not_o put_v confidence_n in_o outward_a thing_n be_v confirm_v in_o the_o 7._o and_o eight_o verse_n thus_o all_o thing_n be_v loss_n to_o i_o in_o respect_n of_o christ_n therefore_o i_o put_v no_o confidence_n in_o any_o thing_n out_o of_o christ._n and_o this_o be_v the_o very_a drift_n of_o the_o former_a word_n in_o the_o second_o place_n the_o proper_a sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o this_o portion_n of_o scripture_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v and_o for_o this_o cause_n we_o be_v to_o be_v advertise_v of_o sundry_a thing_n in_o the_o word_n themselves_o and_o first_o of_o all_o let_v it_o be_v observe_v that_o paul_n in_o the_o 7._o v._n say_v in_o the_o time_n past_a i_o have_v count_v all_o thing_n loss_n and_o in_o the_o next_o verse_n in_o the_o time_n present_a i_o do_v count_v all_o thing_n loss_n the_o former_a speech_n be_v mean_v of_o that_o time_n in_o which_o he_o be_v first_o call_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n the_o second_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o time_n when_o he_o have_v long_o continue_v a_o apostle_n of_o christ_n and_o write_v this_o epistle_n to_o the_o philippian_n this_o distinction_n of_o time_n in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o word_n make_v much_o to_o the_o clear_n of_o the_o doctrine_n that_o shall_v afterward_o be_v deliver_v second_o whereas_o in_o our_o translation_n it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o eight_o verse_n for_o who_o i_o have_v count_v all_o thing_n loss_n the_o word_n be_v too_o scant_a and_o do_v not_o full_o express_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o word_n full_o translate_v signify_v i_o have_v make_v all_o thing_n loss_n or_o i_o have_v cast_v away_o all_o thing_n or_o i_o have_v deprive_v myself_o of_o all_o thing_n for_o christ._n and_o whereas_o paul_n have_v say_v before_o i_o count_v all_o thing_n loss_n his_o meaning_n be_v to_o amplify_v his_o own_o word_n by_o say_v i_o deprive_v myself_o of_o all_o thing_n and_o judge_v they_o dung_n for_o christ._n three_o the_o word_n translate_v dung_n signify_v such_o thing_n in_o the_o entrails_n of_o beast_n as_o be_v unfit_a for_o man_n use_n be_v cast_v to_o dog_n and_o by_o it_o paul_n signify_v that_o he_o do_v not_o only_o esteem_v all_o thing_n as_o loss_n and_o deprive_v himself_o of_o they_o but_o also_o cast_v they_o away_o with_o loathe_v in_o a_o mind_n never_o to_o seek_v the_o recovery_n of_o they_o last_o it_o must_v be_v know_v that_o paul_n in_o these_o verse_n use_v a_o similitude_n borrow_v from_o the_o merchant_n man_n and_o it_o may_v be_v frame_v on_o this_o manner_n the_o merchant_n in_o hope_n of_o a_o treasure_n be_v content_a to_o esteem_v his_o commodity_n no_o commodity_n but_o loss_n yea_o he_o be_v further_a content_n to_o cast_v they_o out_o into_o the_o sea_n and_o to_o esteem_v they_o as_o thing_n cast_v to_o dog_n that_o he_o may_v obtain_v his_o intend_a treasure_n so_o say_v paul_n do_v i_o count_v all_o my_o former_a prerogative_n as_o loss_n

handle_v the_o first_o be_v what_o be_v the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n i_o answer_v not_o only_o the_o suffering_n which_o he_o endure_v in_o his_o own_o person_n but_o also_o those_o which_o be_v endure_v of_o his_o member_n 4._o thus_o saul_n persecute_v the_o church_n be_v say_v to_o persecute_v christ_n himself_o and_o paul_n say_v that_o he_o fulfil_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o affliction_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o own_o flesh_n 24._o and_o whereas_o the_o lord_n say_v of_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n 1._o i_o have_v bring_v my_o son_n out_o of_o egypt_n it_o be_v apply_v by_o saint_n matthew_n to_o christ_n himself_o yet_o here_o it_o must_v be_v remember_v that_o if_o the_o member_n of_o christ_n suffer_v either_o civil_a or_o ecclesiastical_a punishment_n for_o evil_a do_v they_o be_v not_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ._n for_o when_o saint_n peter_n have_v say_v 15._o rejoice_v in_o that_o you_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n he_o add_v further_a let_v no_o man_n suffer_v as_o a_o evil_a doe●_n oppose_v the_o one_o kind_n of_o suffering_n to_o the_o other_o therefore_o our_o suffering_n be_v then_o to_o be_v account_v the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n when_o they_o be_v for_o good_a cause_n and_o for_o the_o name_n of_o christ._n for_o the_o second_o point_n fellowship_n with_o christ_n in_o his_o death_n be_v either_o within_o we_o or_o without_o us._n that_o within_o we_o be_v call_v the_o mortification_n of_o the_o flesh_n or_o the_o crucify_a of_o the_o affection_n and_o the_o lust_n thereof_o the_o other_o without_o we_o be_v the_o mortification_n of_o the_o outward_a man_n by_o manifold_a affliction_n and_o of_o this_o paul_n speak_v in_o this_o place_n and_o it_o may_v be_v thus_o describe_v out_o of_o this_o text_n fellowship_n with_o christ_n in_o his_o death_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o conformity_n in_o we_o to_o his_o suffering_n and_o death_n and_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n worthy_a our_o consideration_n to_o search_v wherein_o stand_v this_o conformity_n for_o in_o two_o respect_n there_o be_v no_o conformity_n between_o our_o suffering_n and_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ._n for_o first_o of_o all_o god_n pour_v forth_o on_o christ_n the_o whole_a malediction_n of_o the_o law_n due_a to_o our_o sin_n and_o by_o this_o mean_v show_v upon_o he_o justice_n without_o mercy_n contrariwise_o in_o our_o affliction_n god_n moderate_v his_o anger_n 10._o &_o in_o justice_n remember_v mercy_n because_o he_o lay_v no_o more_o upon_o we_o than_o we_o be_v able_a to_o bear_v second_o christ_n suffering_n be_v a_o redemption_n &_o satisfaction_n to_o god_n justice_n for_o our_o sin_n so_o be_v not_o we_o because_o before_o god_n we_o stand_v but_o as_o private_a person_n &_o for_o this_o cause_n the_o suffering_n of_o one_o man_n can_v satisfy_v for_o a_o other_o and_o there_o be_v no_o proportion_n between_o our_o suffering_n &_o the_o glory_n which_o shall_v be_v reveal_v and_o christ_n say_v of_o himself_o 3._o i_o have_v tread_v the_o winepress_a alone_o now_o this_o conformity_n stand_v as_o i_o take_v it_o proper_o in_o the_o manner_n of_o suffer_v and_o that_o in_o four_o thing_n first_o of_o all_o christ_n suffer_v for_o a_o just_a and_o righteous_a cause_n for_o he_o suffer_v as_o our_o redeemer_n 10._o the_o righteous_a for_o the_o unrighteous_a and_o so_o must_v we_o likewise_o suffer_v for_o righteousness_n sake_n 21._o second_o christ_n in_o suffer_v be_v a_o mirror_n of_o all_o patience_n and_o meekness_n and_o we_o in_o our_o suffering_n must_v show_v the_o like_a patience_n and_o that_o we_o be_v not_o deceive_v herein_o our_o patience_n must_v have_v three_o property_n it_o must_v be_v voluntary_a that_o be_v we_o must_v willing_o and_o quiet_o renounce_v our_o own_o will_n and_o subject_n ourselves_o in_o our_o suffering_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n patience_n perforce_o be_v no_o patience_n again_o it_o must_v not_o be_v mercenary_a that_o be_v we_o must_v suffer_v not_o for_o high_a respect_n as_o for_o praise_n or_o profit_n but_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o that_o we_o may_v show_v our_o obedience_n to_o he_o hence_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o patience_n of_o the_o papist_n that_o suffer_v in_o way_n of_o satisfaction_n be_v no_o right_a patience_n last_o our_o patience_n must_v be_v constant_a if_o we_o endure_v affliction_n for_o a_o brunt_n and_o afterward_o begin_v to_o grudge_v and_o repine_v cast_v off_o the_o yoke_n of_o christ_n we_o fail_v in_o our_o patience_n further_o if_o it_o be_v demand_v whether_o the_o affection_n of_o grief_n &_o sorrow_n may_v stand_v with_o patience_n i_o answer_v yea_o for_o christian_a religion_n do_v not_o abolish_v these_o affection_n but_o only_o moderate_v they_o and_o bring_v they_o in_o subjection_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n when_o we_o lie_v under_o the_o cross_n the_o three_o point_n wherein_o stand_v our_o conformity_n with_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n be_v this_o 8._o christ_n learned_a obedience_n by_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o suffer_v not_o because_o he_o be_v a_o sinner_n but_o because_o be_v righteous_a he_o have_v experience_n of_o obedience_n and_o we_o likewise_o in_o our_o suffering_n must_v be_v more_o careful_a to_o take_v the_o fruit_n thereof_o then_o to_o have_v they_o take_v away_o and_o the_o fruit_n of_o they_o be_v to_o learn_v obedience_n thereby_o special_o to_o the_o commandment_n of_o faith_n and_o repentance_n when_o job_n be_v afflict_v of_o god_n not_o for_o his_o sin_n but_o that_o he_o may_v make_v a_o trial_n of_o his_o faith_n and_o patience_n 6._o he_o nevertheless_o in_o the_o end_n take_v a_o occasion_n thereby_o to_o renew_v his_o old_a repentance_n and_o paul_n say_v that_o he_o receive_v in_o his_o own_o flesh_n the_o sentence_n of_o death_n 1._o that_o he_o may_v learn_v by_o faith_n to_o trust_v in_o god_n alone_o last_o christ_n suffering_n be_v even_o to_o death_n itself_o 4._o even_o so_o must_v we_o resist_v sin_n fight_v against_o it_o to_o the_o shed_n of_o our_o blood_n faith_n and_o good_a conscience_n be_v thing_n more_o precious_a than_o the_o very_a blood_n of_o
