man_n in_o all_o estate_n and_o degree_n of_o calling_n as_o of_o prince_n priest_n and_o people_n so_o they_o do_v with_o great_a authority_n and_o boldness_n discover_v their_o several_a and_o particular_a sin_n and_o threaten_v against_o they_o present_a destruction_n and_o the_o fearful_a judgement_n of_o god_n as_o may_v appear_v to_o every_o one_o that_o shall_v read_v with_o

gospel_n of_o the_o field_n floor_n and_o net_n write_v for_o a_o plain_a declaration_n hereof_o shall_v full_o satisfy_v and_o content_v every_o one_o that_o believe_v he_o to_o be_v the_o only_a teacher_n of_o all_o truth_n and_o righteousness_n etc_n for_o even_o as_o in_o the_o field_n there_o grow_v up_o not_o only_o sound_v corn_n but_o also_o tare_n cockle_n and_o darnel_n in_o the_o floor_n there_o be_v not_o only_o pure_a wheat_n 3.17_o but_o also_o chaff_n in_o the_o net_n not_o only_o good_a thing_n but_o bad_a as_o filth_n and_o such_o like_a 13.47_o so_o in_o the_o militant_a and_o visible_a church_n the_o field_n floor_n and_o net_n of_o the_o lord_n there_o be_v not_o only_o sincere_a and_o faithful_a but_o also_o hypocritical_a and_o faithless_a worshipper_n of_o god_n not_o only_o upright_o and_o constant_a doer_n of_o the_o word_n but_o also_o vain_a and_o idle_a talker_n of_o the_o same_o final_o not_o only_a such_o as_o with_o good_a conscience_n pure_a heart_n and_o faith_n unfeigned_a do_v serve_v the_o lord_n and_o his_o church_n but_o such_o also_o as_o be_v reprobate_a to_o every_o good_a work_n who_o end_n be_v to_o be_v cast_v eternal_o from_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o to_o be_v burn_v as_o chaff_n in_o the_o fearful_a furnace_n of_o god_n wrath_n and_o everlasting_a indignation_n see_v therefore_o that_o the_o example_n of_o habel_n and_o cain_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n of_o ishmael_n and_o isaac_n jaakob_n and_o esau_n in_o the_o family_n of_o abraham_n and_o of_o isaac_n see_v god_n he_o self_n in_o the_o

in_o the_o three_o former_a parable_n as_o also_o in_o this_o present_a place_n do_v declare_v teach_v and_o confirm_v the_o truth_n of_o these_o two_o sort_n of_o professor_n who_o be_v so_o blind_a that_o he_o can_v not_o see_v this_o who_o so_o faithless_a that_o will_v not_o believe_v it_o who_o so_o impudent_a that_o will_v not_o confess_v it_o final_o who_o can_v be_v so_o injurious_a to_o his_o own_o salvation_n that_o have_v so_o many_o witness_n and_o such_o daily_a and_o continual_a experience_n of_o this_o truth_n will_v not_o give_v his_o good_n body_n life_n and_o all_o that_o he_o may_v be_v account_v of_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o dreadful_a day_n of_o judgement_n a_o doer_n and_o worker_n of_o his_o will_n the_o use_n of_o this_o certain_a doctrine_n serve_v to_o move_v all_o true_a christian_n to_o take_v great_a pain_n and_o care_n to_o frame_v their_o heart_n and_o work_n according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_o then_o only_o to_o have_v a_o outward_a show_n and_o

of_o minister_n whereby_o he_o teach_v that_o every_o minister_n ought_v to_o be_v watchful_a sober_a modest_a lover_n harbourous_a a_o lover_n of_o goodness_n wise_n righteous_a holy_a temperate_a and_o unreprovable_a so_o that_o by_o these_o precept_n and_o commandment_n it_o evident_o appear_v with_o what_o care_n of_o the_o flock_n willingness_n and_o readiness_n of_o mind_n desire_v by_o
