gold_n silver_n or_o promotion_n but_o reconciliation_n with_o my_o god_n and_o his_o favour_n in_o jesus_n christ_n if_o thou_o have_v these_o two_o than_o thou_o go_v beyond_o cain_n then_o shall_v

if_o thou_o have_v these_o thou_o be_v bless_v with_o abel_n if_o not_o curse_a with_o cain_n howsoever_o thou_o live_v in_o the_o world_n if_o thou_o say_v cain_n kill_v his_o brother_n and_o so_o

yet_o not_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n another_o may_v be_v not_o so_o forward_o to_o the_o duty_n and_o yet_o when_o he_o come_v be_v better_o accept_v whence_o come_v this_o what_o be_v forwardness_n

the_o good_a shall_v never_o be_v quite_o separate_v from_o the_o bad_a until_o christ_n himself_o do_v it_o at_o the_o last_o judgement_n goat_n shall_v always_o be_v mingle_v among_o the_o sheep_n

and_o such_o a_o church_n as_o can_v be_v find_v upon_o the_o earth_n this_o be_v so_o let_v no_o man_n therefore_o be_v afraid_a to_o join_v himself_o to_o the_o visible_a church_n neither_o let_v

out_o of_o a_o church_n because_o there_o be_v hypocrite_n in_o it_o must_v go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n for_o such_o a_o church_n be_v not_o find_v but_o triumphant_a in_o heaven_n four_o 〈◊〉_d that_o cain_n &_o abel_n offer_v hence_o we_o learn_v that_o the_o church_n of_o god_n which_o true_o profess_v his_o name_n have_v be_v ever_o since_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n for_o this_o

have_v be_v from_o the_o beginning_n &_o therefore_o be_v true_o call_v catholic_a the_o papist_n abuse_v this_o place_n notorious_o for_o whereas_o the_o church_n have_v be_v so_o ancient_a they_o argue_v therefore_o it_o be_v above_o the_o scripture_n yea_o &_o that_o we_o can_v not_o know_v it_o to_o be_v scripture_n but_o by_o the_o ancient_a testimony_n of_o the_o church_n we_o must_v know_v the_o scripture_n be_v two_o way_n to_o be_v consider_v 1._o as_o it_o be_v write_v &_o pen_v by_o holy_a man_n and_o so_o it_o be_v late_a than_o the_o church_n for_o moses_n be_v the_o first_o penman_n of_o scripture_n but_o second_o as_o it_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o substance_n sense_n and_o truth_n thereof_o be_v much_o more_o ancient_a they_o the_o church_n yea_o without_o the_o word_n of_o god_n there_o can_v be_v no_o church_n for_o without_o faith_n be_v no_o church_n because_o the_o church_n be_v a_o company_n of_o believer_n and_o without_o the_o word_n it_o be_v no_o faith_n therefore_o no_o word_n no_o faith_n no_o faith_n no_o church_n so_o then_o the_o scripture_n be_v afore_o the_o church_n but_o pen_v after_o thus_o we_o see_v that_o cain_n and_o abel_n offer_v now_o second_o what_o offer_v they_o sacrifice_n sacrifice_n be_v use_v in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n for_o two_o end_n 1._o when_o a_o sacrifice_n be_v offer_v especial_o of_o beast_n when_o a_o man_n see_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o beast_n pour_v out_o it_o put_v he_o in_o mind_n of_o his_o own_o sin_n and_o the_o desert_n of_o they_o &_o teach_v he_o to_o say_v thus_o eve_n as_o this_o creature_n be_v here_o slay_v &_o his_o blood_n distil_v &_o drop_v away_o so_o my_o sin_n deserve_v that_o my_o blood_n shall_v be_v s●●ed_v and_o my_o soul_n be_v drench_v in_o hell_n for_o ever_o this_o creature_n can_v die_v but_o one_o death_n for_o it_o sin_v not_o but_o my_o sin_n deserve_v both_o the_o 1._o and_o 2._o death_n second_o sacrifice_n serve_v to_o put_v the●●_n in_o mind_n of_o the_o messiah_n to_o come_v and_o the_o slay_v of_o the_o beast_n show_v they_o how_o the_o messiah_n shall_v shed_v his_o blood_n &_o give_v his_o life_n for_o the_o ●ir●s_n of_o the_o people_n these_o be_v the_o 2._o principal_a end_n of_o sacrifice_n &_o for_o these_o 2._o end_n do_v cain_n &_o abel_n offer_v cain_n in_o hypocrisy_n and_o for_o fashion_n sake_n abel_n in_o truth_n conscience_n and_o sincerity_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o old_a sacrifice_n so_o be_v it_o in_o our_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n whereof_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v all_o type_n 1._o in_o baptism_n sprinkle_v of_o the_o water_n serve_v to_o show_v we_o how_o filthy_o we_o be_v defile_v with_o our_o own_o sin_n 2._o it_o signify_v the_o sprinkle_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o sinner_n for_o his_o sanctification_n from_o sin_n 2._o in_o the_o supper_n the_o break_n of_o the_o bread_n signify_v 1._o how_o we_o shall_v be_v break_v in_o humiliation_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o pour_v out_o of_o the_o wine_n how_o our_o blood_n and_o life_n shall_v be_v shed_v and_o pour_v out_o for_o our_o sin_n if_o we_o have_v that_o that_o we_o deserve_v and_o second_o they_o represent_v unto_o we_o how_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v break_v &_o his_o blood_n pour_v out_o for_o our_o sin_n which_o he_o be_v content_a to_o suffer_v under_o the_o wrath_n of_o his_o father_n for_o our_o sake_n so_o that_o we_o see_v both_o the_o sacrifice_n and_o
to_o receive_v god_n command_n and_o to_o go_v at_o his_o call_n these_o be_v the_o signification_n of_o the_o passove_a which_o we_o must_v remember_v to_o make_v good_a use_n of_o in_o the_o course_n of_o our_o life_n and_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o first_o branch_n of_o this_o act_n of_o moses_n faith_n in_o ordain_v the_o passove_a the_o second_o branch_n of_o this_o work_n be_v this_o and_o the_o effusion_n of_o blood_n that_o be_v the_o sprinkle_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lamb_n upon_o the_o post_n of_o their_o house_n and_o upon_o the_o door_n cheek_n which_o be_v a_o

to_o be_v a_o weak_a &_o simple_a mean_n yet_o god_n ordain_v it_o to_o preserve_v all_o the_o first_o bear_v among_o the_o israelite_n and_o thus_o the_o lord_n use_v to_o deal_v that_o his_o people_n through_o the_o weakness_n of_o the_o mean_n may_v be_v bring_v to_o acknowledge_v god_n to_o be_v their_o protector_n and_o defender_n when_o the_o israelite_n be_v sting_v with_o the_o

all_o the_o glory_n unto_o he_o and_o not_o to_o ascribe_v the_o same_o either_o to_o themselves_o or_o to_o the_o mean_n further_o this_o sprinkle_n of_o the_o blood_n upon_o the_o door_n cheek_n and_o the_o post_n of_o their_o house_n have_v a_o notable_a signification_n namely_o of_o the_o sprinkle_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o door_n of_o our_o heart_n to_o which_o peter_n allude_v 1._o peter_n 1.2_o through_o the_o obedience_n and_o sprinkle_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ._n and_o david_n when_o he_o say_v sprinkle_v i_o with_o hisope_n and_o i_o shall_v be_v clean_o david_n know_v well_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o beast_n can_v not_o take_v away_o sin_n and_o therefore_o no_o doubt_n by_o his_o save_a faith_n he_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o messiah_n under_o legal_a term_n whence_o we_o be_v teach_v this_o lesson_n that_o as_o the_o israelite_n with_o their_o bodily_a hand_n do_v sprinkle_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o paschall_n lamb_n upon_o their_o door_n cheek_n &_o the_o post_n of_o their_o house_n so_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o faith_n every_o one_o of_o we_o must_v sprinkle_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n upon_o our_o own_o heart_n which_o we_o shall_v then_o do_v when_o we_o do_v not_o only_o in_o general_n believe_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o saviour_n and_o redeemer_n but_o particular_o that_o he_o be_v a_o redeemer_n unto_o we_o and_o that_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o death_n and_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o blood_n be_v we_o object_n but_o some_o will_v say_v if_o this_o be_v so_o than_o all_o be_v well_o for_o i_o do_v believe_v this_o answer_n herein_o very_o many_o deceive_v themselves_o think_v that_o they_o have_v faith_n when_o indeed_o they_o have_v none_o for_o look_v unto_o their_o way_n and_o see_v

be_v deceiver_n of_o their_o own_o soul_n for_o after_o this_o sprinkle_n follow_v sanctification_n and_o rise_v from_o dead_a work_n to_o newness_n of_o life_n so_o that_o they_o that_o live_v in_o

this_o passove_a two_o way_n first_o as_o a_o mean_n of_o temporal_a deliverance_n and_o so_o the_o beast_n have_v benefit_n by_o it_o second_o as_o a_o sign_n and_o seal_n of_o our_o spiritual_a

but_o yet_o they_o do_v not_o partake_v of_o the_o lord_n sacrament_n for_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o water_n two_o way_n first_o as_o a_o mean_n to_o quench_v thirst_n and_o consequent_o as_o a_o outward_a benefit_n to_o preserve_v the_o life_n of_o the_o creature_n &_o so_o the_o beast_n have_v a_o benefit_n by_o it_o but_o consider_v it_o as_o a_o sign_n &_o seal_n of_o the_o water_n of_o life_n and_o so_o their_o beast_n have_v no_o benefit_n by_o it_o but_o only_o the_o believe_a people_n it_o follow_v shall_v touch_v they_o here_o be_v the_o very_a use_n and_o end_n of_o both_o the_o former_a action_n that_o the_o angel_n may_v not_o hurt_v they_o but_o pass_v by_o the_o israelite_n house_n here_o consider_v a_o notable_a point_n concern_v christ_n the_o true_a passeover_n
