christ_n be_v dead_a and_o rise_v again_o have_v also_o buy_v we_o unto_o himself_o to_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o glory_n and_o continual_o to_o conduct_v we_o both_o in_o life_n and_o death_n finis_fw-la the_o second_o sermon_n of_o abraham_n his_o sacrifice_v of_o his_o son_n isaak_n 3_o then_o abraham_n rise_v up_o early_o in_o the_o morning_n and_o saddle_v his_o ass_n and_o take_v two_o of_o his_o servant_n with_o he_o and_o isaak_n his_o son_n and_o cleave_v wood_n for_o the_o burn_a offering_n and_o rise_v up_o and_o go_v to_o the_o place_n which_o god_n tell_v he_o 4_o then_o the_o three_o day_n abraham_n lift_v up_o his_o eye_n and_o see_v the_o place_n a_o far_o off_o 5_o and_o say_v unto_o his_o servant_n abide_v you_o here_o with_o the_o ass_n for_o i_o and_o the_o child_n will_v go_v yonder_o and_o worship_n and_o come_v again_o unto_o you_o 6_o then_o abraham_n take_v the_o wood_n of_o the_o burn_a offering_n and_o lay_v it_o upon_o isaak_n his_o sonnee_n and_o he_o take_v the_o fire_n in_o his_o hand_n and_o the_o knife_n and_o they_o go_v both_o together_o 7_o then_o speak_v isaak_n unto_o abraham_n his_o father_n and_o say_v my_o father_n and_o he_o answer_v here_o be_o i_o my_o son_n and_o he_o say_v behold_v the_o fire_n and_o the_o wood_n but_o where_o be_v the_o lamb_n for_o the_o burn_a offering_n 8_o then_o abraham_n answer_v my_o son_n god_n will_v provide_v he_o a_o lamb_n for_o aburnt_a offering_n so_o they_o go_v both_o together_o we_o have_v hear_v that_o this_o be_v the_o chief_a and_o hard_a conflict_n that_o ever_o abraham_n sustain_v in_o all_o the_o day_n of_o his_o life_n the_o go_v with_o his_o son_n isaak_n into_o a_o mountain_n and_o there_o to_o offer_v he_o for_o a_o burn_a offering_n because_o in_o the_o first_o place_n he_o be_v to_o kill_v he_o with_o his_o own_o hand_n now_o it_o have_v be_v show_v we_o here_o before_o that_o god_n will_v declare_v unto_o we_o in_o our_o father_n abraham_n that_o we_o must_v so_o overcome_v all_o our_o natural_a affection_n as_o that_o his_o honour_n be_v prefer_v above_o all_o the_o rest_n for_o although_o a_o husband_n love_v his_o wife_n never_o so_o dear_o a_o father_n his_o child_n never_o so_o tender_o yet_o all_o this_o must_v be_v trod_v under_o foot_n when_o the_o matter_n for_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n come_v in_o question_n for_o that_o be_v the_o most_o precious_a of_o all_o other_o precious_a thing_n we_o have_v also_o declare_v that_o abraham_n be_v not_o tempt_v only_o in_o that_o god_n command_v he_o to_o kill_v his_o son_n but_o in_o that_o it_o seem_v that_o all_o the_o promise_n which_o god_n before_o have_v make_v unto_o he_o be_v all_o as_o a_o man_n will_v say_v quite_o and_o clean_o frustrate_v and_o void_a for_o they_o all_o depend_v upon_o that_o which_o we_o have_v already_o hear_v that_o the_o bless_a seed_n shall_v be_v raise_v in_o isaak_n and_o therefore_o it_o seem_v that_o god_n mean_v to_o frustrate_v his_o promise_n make_v to_o abraham_n now_o although_o it_o may_v seem_v in_o any_o natural_a man_n reason_n that_o god_n herein_o be_v contrary_a to_o himself_o &_o that_o that_o commandment_n of_o his_o be_v to_o adnihilate_v that_o which_o before_o he_o have_v hear_v from_o god_n own_o mouth_n yet_o he_o constant_o obey_v 〈◊〉_d majesty_n without_o further_a question_n now_o it_o may_v stand_v at_o the_o first_o sight_n that_o that_o which_o he_o do_v have_v no_o good_a find_v foundation_n of_o a_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n because_o faith_n have_v respect_n to_o the_o promise_n and_o yet_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v abraham_n can_v look_v for_o nothing_o but_o by_o isaak_n his_o mean_n because_o it_o be_v say_v that_o in_o christ_n jesus_n all_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v most_o sure_a 120_o 2_o cor._n 120_o and_o yea_o and_o amen_n for_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n must_v come_v of_o the_o stock_n of_o isaak_n and_o that_o be_v in_o very_a deed_n the_o seed_n which_o be_v promise_v he_o how_o then_o can_v abraham_n be_v content_v to_o have_v his_o son_n to_o die_v and_o yet_o to_o have_v the_o promise_n of_o god_n to_o stand_v in_o full_a strength_n power_n and_o virtue_n now_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o by_o faith_n abraham_n offer_v his_o son_n isaac_n 11.17_o hebr._n 11.17_o so_o that_o by_o this_o we_o be_v let_v to_o understand_v that_o abraham_n fall_n out_o as_o it_o will_v rest_v whole_o upon_o the_o word_n and_o promise_n of_o god_n and_o as_o for_o the_o contrariety_n which_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v between_o the_o commandment_n and_o the_o promise_n the_o apostle_n answer_v 21.12_o heb._n 11.19_o gen._n 21.12_o that_o he_o believe_v that_o god_n be_v as_o able_a to_o raise_v seed_n out_o of_o the_o ash_n of_o isaak_n as_o he_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v his_o former_a promise_n now_o this_o be_v a_o profitable_a point_n for_o we_o if_o we_o understand_v it_o aright_o for_o we_o be_v hereby_o admonish_v so_o to_o believe_v in_o god_n as_o that_o we_o look_v further_o than_o unto_o the_o world_n and_o whatsoever_o else_o we_o be_v able_a to_o perceive_v and_o comprehend_v by_o our_o natural_a reason_n and_o understanding_n for_o if_o faith_n stay_v itself_o upon_o that_o which_o we_o see_v it_o be_v nothing_o and_o then_o be_v the_o power_n of_o god_n maruelouse_o diminish_v moreover_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o this_o manner_n faith_n be_v the_o ground_n of_o thing_n hope_v for_o 11.1_o heb._n 11.1_o and_o the_o evidence_n of_o thing_n not_o see_v agree_v with_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n say_v we_o hope_v not_o for_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o see_v 8.24_o rom._n 8.24_o but_o for_o the_o thing_n we_o see_v not_o yea_o even_o for_o thing_n that_o seem_v to_o be_v impossible_a sith_o than_o it_o be_v so_o that_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n do_v not_o set_v before_o our_o eye_n that_o which_o be_v contain_v in_o they_o we_o must_v as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v when_o we_o speak_v of_o faith_n look_v further_o than_o unto_o the_o world_n and_o how_o be_v that_o to_o wit_n we_o must_v not_o measure_v the_o infinite_a power_n of_o god_n with_o the_o mean_n which_o be_v set_v before_o we_o and_o as_o we_o comprehend_v they_o but_o when_o as_o we_o shall_v have_v these_o toy_n in_o our_o head_n as_o to_o think_v that_o this_o or_o that_o can_v never_o come_v to_o pass_v and_o that_o there_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o very_a contradiction_n in_o the_o case_n yet_o let_v we_o thus_o conclude_v without_o all_o doubt_n god_n will_v perform_v whatsoever_o he_o have_v speak_v but_o we_o will_v say_v how_o can_v it_o possible_o be_v oh_o let_v not_o we_o judge_v of_o it_o we_o must_v here_o bring_v under_o our_o own_o sense_n and_o wit_n and_o do_v god_n this_o honour_n to_o say_v that_o he_o be_v faithful_a but_o we_o know_v not_o what_o will_v be_v the_o issue_n thereof_o or_o else_o think_v that_o all_o be_v shut_v up_o and_o close_v here_o than_o we_o see_v what_o we_o be_v to_o learn_v out_o of_o these_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n now_o if_o abraham_n have_v reason_v like_o natural_a man_n he_o may_v have_v say_v that_o god_n be_v not_o contrary_a unto_o himself_o for_o he_o tell_v i_o that_o i_o shall_v have_v seed_n by_o isaak_n and_o that_o from_o thence_o the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n shall_v come_v and_o i_o must_v not_o forget_v this_o and_o yet_o at_o this_o present_a he_o have_v command_v i_o to_o kill_v isaak_n here_o be_v no_o order_n in_o this_o for_o i_o will_v take_v he_o at_o his_o first_o word_n and_o that_o must_v stand_v thus_o we_o see_v that_o abraham_n may_v after_o this_o manner_n have_v excuse_v himself_o and_o yet_o have_v be_v a_o rebel_n unto_o god_n under_o the_o colour_n of_o obedience_n but_o what_o do_v he_o he_o consider_v with_o himself_o that_o god_n be_v almighty_a and_o therefore_o able_a to_o accomplish_v whatsoever_o promise_n he_o have_v make_v concern_v isaak_n you_o say_v well_o sir_n but_o what_o if_o he_o have_v die_v how_o then_o and_o what_o of_o that_o as_o though_o god_n be_v not_o lord_n over_o death_n here_o we_o see_v the_o right_a conflict_n of_o abraham_n faith_n which_o be_v death_n be_v set_v before_o his_o eye_n which_o be_v enough_o to_o confound_v he_o but_o he_o extol_v the_o power_n of_o god_n far_o beyond_o all_o this_o and_o say_v yet_o will_v god_n overcome_v and_o be_v a_o mighty_a conqueror_n herein_o and_o how_o can_v that_o be_v oh_o this_o be_v not_o a_o matter_n for_o any_o man_n to_o judge_v or_o determine_v of_o nor_o to_o give_v scope_n to_o

learn_v not_o to_o be_v over_o effeminate_a and_o that_o when_o it_o shall_v please_v the_o lord_n to_o exercise_v we_o in_o what_o sect_n soever_o to_o be_v tractable_a to_o be_v lead_v to_o ●im_v and_o to_o have_v our_o affection_n so_o tame_v as_o that_o god_n only_o be_v m●ister_n over_o they_o to_o rule_v they_o ●nd_v to_o covenant_n with_o we_o as_o please_v himself_o thus_o we_o see_v what_o it_o be_v that_o we_o be_v here_o to_o learn_v from_o this_o place_n and_o so_o whensoever_o we_o have_v endure_v any_o temptation_n or_o have_v sustain_v any_o combat_n &_o that_o god_n soon_o afrer_n tri_v we_o let_v we_o not_o think_v it_o any_o whit_n strange_a for_o we_o serve_v he_o not_o with_o this_o condition_n that_o after_o he_o have_v rough_o handle_v we_o for_o a_o day_n o●_n a_o year_n we_o may_v by_o and_o by_o be_v discharge_v and_o so_o crave_v a_o paspot_n but_o contrariwise_o to_o harden_v we_o because_o god_n cease_v not_o continual_o to_o send_v such_o proof_n to_o try_v our_o faith_n withal_o but_o the_o s●me_n shall_v be_v i_o say_v as_o a_o habit_n unto_o we_o because_o we_o see_v that_o a_o old_a beat_a soldier_n can_v abide_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o pain_n than_o a_o young_a fresh_a water_n soldier_n as_o we_o say_v for_o a_o young_a novice_n know_v not_o what_o it_o mean_v ●he_n will_v be_v weary_a with_o one_o night_n watch_n he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o abide_v either_o cold_a or_o heat_n not_o able_a to_o away_o with_o skirmish_v nor_o to_o be_v always_o in_o watch_n and_o ward_n but_o he_o that_o be_v long_o use_v hereunto_o shall_v be_v far_o betterable_a to_o endure_v these_o thing_n even_o so_o must_v it_o fare_v with_o we_o that_o when_o the_o lord_n shall_v have_v exercise_v we_o every_o manner_n of_o way_n we_o shall_v be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o able_a and_o ready_a the_o better_a and_o long_o to_o continue_v and_o although_o it_o shall_v seem_v to_o we_o that_o god_n deal_v very_o severe_o with_o we_o in_o lay_v too_o great_a load_n upon_o we_o yet_o let_v not_o we_o think_v our_o case_n to_o be_v strange_a and_o why_o so_o because_o we_o see_v here_o a_o pattern_n thereof_o in_o our_o father_n abraham_n unto_o who_o we_o must_v be_v configure_v now_o as_o concern_v this_o word_n tempt_v we_o know_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o it_o when_o it_o be_v attribute_v unto_o god_n it_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o he_o tempt_v we_o to_o lead_v we_o to_o do_v ill_a for_o we_o be_v of_o of_o ourselves_o thereunto_o overmuch_o incline_v and_o as_o s._n james_n say_v every_o man_n be_v tempt_v of_o his_o own_o concupiscence_n 1.14_o james_n 1.14_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o seek_v after_o the_o cause_n of_o these_o fault_n any_o where_o else_o but_o in_o ourselves_o wherefore_o god_n tempt_v we_o not_o so_o as_o to_o say_v that_o the_o salt_n be_v in_o he_o and_o that_o we_o may_v impute_v the_o evil_a which_o we_o commit_v unto_o he_o as_o if_o he_o be_v author_n thereof_o but_o god_n tempt_v those_o that_o be_v he_o to_o sound_v they_o and_o therefore_o this_o word_n import_v to_o examine_v to_o prove_v not_o that_o he_o need_v to_o inquire_v what_o be_v in_o we_o thought_n god_n see_v our_o thought_n for_o we_o know_v that_o nothing_o be_v unknow_v to_o he_o the_o book_n be_v not_o as_o yet_o open_a but_o yet_o so_o as_o that_o god_n know_v and_o judge_v that_o which_o he_o will_v make_v manifest_a at_o the_o last_o day_n and_o therefore_o he_o have_v no_o need_n to_o sound_v and_o try_v we_o faith_n affliction_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o trial_n of_o out_o faith_n for_o he_o do_v that_o that_o be_v in_o we_o but_o this_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o probation_n of_o our_o faith_n for_o as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v god_n will_v not_o have_v his_o gift_n to_o be_v unprofitable_a but_o will_v apply_v they_o to_o some_o use_n to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v thereby_o be_v glorify_v and_o we_o thereby_o also_o so_o much_o the_o better_o be_v confirm_v consider_v how_o wonderful_o he_o regard_v we_o and_o will_v have_v we_o with_o patience_n fight_v against_o all_o the_o assalt_v of_o satan_n &_o of_o the_o world_n that_o we_o thereby_o may_v find_v by_o experience_n that_o god_n be_v with_o we_o and_o love_v we_o wherefore_o we_o have_v good_a cause_n the_o more_o confident_o to_o call_v upon_o he_o to_o run_v unto_o he_o and_o stay_v ourselves_o upon_o his_o goodness_n and_o not_o to_o doubt_v of_o his_o help_n even_o unto_o the_o end_n salvation_n god_n tri_v we_o by_o affliction_n both_o for_o his_o own_o glory_n and_o also_o for_o our_o salvation_n thus_o we_o see_v then_o in_o sum_n why_o god_n tri_v we_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o will_v have_v the_o gift_n which_o he_o bestow_v on_o we_o to_o be_v apply_v to_o serve_v he_o to_o the_o end_n all_o man_n may_v know_v his_o power_n goodness_n and_o wisdom_n that_o thereby_o he_o may_v be_v glorify_v as_o he_o deserve_v but_o it_o be_v chief_o to_o this_o end_n that_o we_o may_v know_v his_o fatherly_a goodness_n towards_o we_o and_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o stir_v up_o to_o honour_v he_o and_o full_o and_o whole_o dedicate_v ourselves_o unto_o he_o and_o withal_o to_o trust_v altogether_o in_o he_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o abraham_n be_v tempt_v and_o so_o be_v also_o all_o the_o faithful_a servant_n of_o god_n at_o this_o day_n for_o if_o we_o shall_v live_v at_o ease_n and_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n cost_v we_o nothing_o what_o proof_n shall_v there_o be_v of_o our_o faith_n moreover_o which_o way_n shall_v the_o true_a child_n of_o god_n and_o such_o as_o serve_v he_o in_o simplicity_n of_o heart_n be_v discern_v from_o hypocrite_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v be_v try_v by_o temptation_n even_o as_o gold_n and_o silver_n be_v try_v in_o the_o furnaise_n see_v also_o why_o saint_n peter_n say_v that_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o our_o faith_n shall_v be_v try_v 6_o 1._o pet._n ●1_n 6_o now_o because_o gold_n &_o silver_n be_v precious_a thing_n therefore_o it_o be_v very_o meet_v they_o shall_v be_v try_v by_o the_o fire_n and_o yet_o be_v but_o these_o corruptible_a metal_n &_o shall_v our_o faith_n which_o be_v far_o more_o excellent_a
