of_o paul_n be_v always_o in_o our_o sight_n whereby_o we_o may_v try_v all_o our_o do_n as_o examine_v with_o a_o touchstone_n the_o second_o abstain_v say_v the_o apostle_n 1._o thess_n 5._o

that_o no_o man_n may_v lay_v upon_o we_o the_o fault_n of_o covetousness_n for_o when_o the_o conversation_n bear_v witness_n of_o the_o covetousness_n of_o the_o heart_n godliness_n and_o faith_n without_o all_o doubt_n be_v banish_v wherefore_o it_o be_v not_o without_o good_a advisement_n which_o david_n pray_v when_o he_o say_v 119.36_o incline_v my_o heart_n unto_o thy_o testimony_n and_o not_o unto_o covetousness_n together_o here_o david_n set_v obedience_n towards_o god_n and_o covetousness_n one_o against_o the_o other_o signify_v that_o their_o condition_n be_v such_o that_o where_o the_o one_o be_v the_o other_o can_v be_v if_o therefore_o the_o heart_n be_v infect_v with_o the_o vice_n of_o covetousness_n sincere_a religion_n towards_o god_n can_v in_o no_o wise_n be_v there_o if_o a_o covetous_a man_n do_v sometime_o pretend_v some_o obedience_n towards_o god_n it_o be_v mere_a hypocrisy_n but_o contrariwise_o if_o the_o heart_n be_v servant_n in_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o in_o his_o religion_n covetousness_n have_v no_o place_n there_o for_o what_o agreement_n have_v the_o idol_n of_o avarice_n with_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n furthermore_o because_o the_o most_o holy_a king_n david_n desire_v of_o the_o lord_n that_o his_o heart_n may_v be_v incline_v to_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n and_o not_o unto_o covetousness_n covetousness_n he_o do_v manifest_o show_v that_o the_o heart_n of_o it_o own_o accord_n be_v carry_v to_o covetousness_n and_o can_v deliver_v itself_o from_o covetousness_n except_o god_n put_v to_o his_o hand_n the_o precept_n therefore_o of_o paul_n let_v your_o conversation_n be_v without_o covetousness_n i_o will_v have_v the_o godly_a to_o have_v always_o before_o their_o eye_n and_o this_o prayer_n of_o

that_o they_o will_v rather_o live_v after_o a_o mean_a sort_n then_o that_o they_o will_v give_v occasion_n that_o the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v evil_o
