tempt_v he_o any_o man_n but_o every_o one_o be_v tempt_v when_o he_o be_v draw_v away_o by_o his_o own_o concupiscence_n and_o be_v entice_v then_o lust_n when_o it_o have_v conceive_v bring_v forth_o sin_n and_o sin_n when_o it_o be_v finish_v bring_v forth_o death_n the_o first_o thing_n we_o have_v here_o to_o note_v in_o this_o doctrine_n be_v this_o that_o all_o corruption_n be_v of_o ourselves_o not_o come_v from_o any_o outward_a cause_n it_o be_v true_a that_o satan_n be_v a_o instrument_n and_o as_o it_o be_v the_o bellows_n to_o stir_v and_o kindle_v in_o we_o the_o lust_n of_o sin_n and_o bear_v a_o very_a great_a stroke_n in_o the_o matter_n but_o if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o this_o concupiscence_n that_o be_v in_o we_o he_o can_v not_o bring_v his_o matter_n to_o pass_v the_o provocation_n and_o allurement_n of_o wicked_a man_n be_v so_o many_o mean_n to_o drive_v we_o and_o draw_v we_o into_o sin_n but_o yet_o the_o cause_n be_v in_o ourselves_o a_o chief_a point_n to_o be_v observe_v that_o we_o may_v learn_v to_o condemn_v ourselves_o when_o we_o have_v do_v amiss_o and_o not_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n which_o look_v when_o they_o have_v fault_v how_o they_o may_v disburden_v themselves_o and_o be_v discharge_v of_o the_o blame_n and_o therefore_o they_o will_v either_o cry_v out_o of_o the_o devil_n as_o though_o he_o as_o they_o say_v ought_v they_o a_o shame_n or_o else_o they_o will_v say_v woe_n worth_a such_o or_o such_o that_o ever_o i_o know_v they_o if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v for_o they_o i_o shall_v not_o have_v do_v thus_o the_o prophet_n david_n when_o he_o have_v commit_v murder_n and_o adultery_n be_v reproove_v by_o nathan_n although_o he_o know_v right_o well_o that_o the_o devil_n be_v a_o great_a furtherer_n in_o the_o matter_n likewise_o he_o may_v have_v think_v upon_o the_o fond_a deal_n of_o the_o woman_n which_o so_o undiscreetlie_o wash_v herself_o in_o such_o a_o place_n as_o other_o may_v see_v she_o yet_o he_o let_v these_o go_v and_o to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v whole_o and_o full_o condemn_v himself_o he_o look_v home_o to_o the_o wellspring_n of_o all_o this_o foul_a and_o beastly_a sin_n &_o say_v behold_v i_o be_v bear_v in_o wickedness_n and_o in_o sin_n have_v my_o mother_n conceive_v i_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v o_o lord_n i_o can_v seek_v any_o way_n to_o be_v excuse_v for_o all_o this_o rebellion_n against_o thou_o be_v conceive_v and_o breed_v in_o my_o own_o corrupt_a breast_n i_o bring_v the_o root_n of_o it_o from_o my_o mother_n womb_n this_o be_v a_o good_a lesson_n for_o we_o to_o learn_v for_o so_o long_o as_o we_o do_v not_o know_v it_o but_o like_o partial_a and_o corrupt_a judge_n go_v about_o to_o excuse_v ourselves_o &_o to_o rid_v our_o hand_n of_o that_o we_o have_v commit_v we_o shall_v never_o come_v to_o any_o sincere_a repentance_n further_o we_o be_v here_o to_o observe_v in_o this_o place_n that_o all_o corruption_n come_v from_o this_o lust_n if_o we_o will_v repent_v indeed_o we_o must_v begin_v here_o for_o if_o they_o be_v change_v only_o in_o their_o outward_a deed_n and_o word_n and_o this_o inward_a sickness_n not_o heal_v they_o have_v gain_v nothing_o no_o more_o than_o a_o man_n which_o will_v destroy_v a_o tree_n and_o do_v no_o more_o than_o lop_v and_o shred_v off_o certain_a bough_n and_o twig_n leave_v the_o stump_n and_o root_n behind_o for_o so_o long_o as_o this_o do_v live_v in_o they_o they_o may_v well_o seem_v in_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n to_o be_v very_o great_a converte_n if_o they_o of_o ignorant_a idiote_n be_v become_v such_o as_o have_v get_v some_o skill_n and_o knowledge_n from_o drunkard_n ruffian_n adulterer_n and_o such_o like_a they_o become_v sober_a modest_a and_o of_o good_a behaviour_n as_o this_o may_v be_v do_v before_o man_n and_o yet_o the_o heart_n nothing_o alter_v before_o god_n for_o there_o be_v many_o cause_n which_o may_v move_v man_n to_o seem_v outward_o to_o be_v godly_a when_o the_o heart_n within_o be_v fraught_v with_o loathsome_a lust_n and_o full_a of_o rot_a corruption_n which_o make_v man_n still_o altogether_o abominable_a before_o god_n to_o be_v short_a therefore_o a_o man_n shall_v never_o right_o judge_v of_o himself_o whether_o he_o have_v repent_v unless_o he_o look_v to_o the_o bottom_n of_o this_o sore_a that_o it_o may_v be_v heal_v the_o great_a multitude_n of_o man_n be_v as_o blind_a as_o beetle_n in_o this_o point_n imagine_v that_o repentance_n be_v a_o very_a light_n and_o easy_a thing_n which_o they_o can_v have_v when_o they_o listen_v when_o a_o man_n of_o wisdom_n say_v this_o that_o here_o lie_v so_o deep_a a_o matter_n that_o here_o be_v root_n which_o be_v hard_a to_o be_v pull_v up_o he_o be_v move_v to_o be_v the_o more_o careful_a lest_o he_o deceive_v himself_o look_v therefore_o every_o man_n to_o his_o thought_n for_o by_o they_o be_v the_o trial_n make_v if_o the_o thought_n be_v change_v and_o the_o inward_a desire_n alter_v so_o that_o of_o profane_a and_o worldly_a they_o be_v become_v holy_a and_o heavenly_a then_o he_o may_v bold_o say_v i_o have_v a_o new_a heart_n and_o there_o be_v a_o right_a spirit_n renew_v in_o i_o i_o have_v repent_v i_o have_v not_o play_v the_o hypocrite_n i_o feel_v a_o upright_a heart_n towards_o god_n i_o feel_v the_o corrupt_a fountain_n stop_v so_o that_o the_o filthy_a matter_n and_o stink_a mud_n do_v not_o boil_v forth_o as_o it_o do_v it_o may_v also_o be_v demand_v here_o whether_o this_o lust_n be_v not_o a_o sin_n or_o a_o corruption_n of_o itself_o because_o saint_n peter_n say_v that_o corruption_n rest_v in_o it_o the_o place_n which_o i_o allege_v out_o of_o the_o 51._o psalm_n do_v prove_v it_o to_o be_v a_o sin_n also_o it_o may_v be_v prove_v out_o of_o the_o five_o to_o the_o roman_n where_o saint_n paul_n proove_v that_o infant_n have_v sin_n because_o they_o be_v subject_a to_o death_n which_o be_v the_o reward_n of_o sin_n although_o as_o he_o say_v they_o sin_v not_o after_o the_o similitude_n of_o the_o transgression_n of_o adam_n therefore_o if_o we_o have_v none_o other_o but_o this_o it_o be_v enough_o to_o condemn_v we_o and_o utter_o to_o cast_v we_o away_o let_v we_o never_o cease_v therefore_o until_o we_o feel_v a_o change_n in_o ourselves_o even_o in_o this_o secret_a infection_n for_o otherwise_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o fly_v the_o corruption_n which_o be_v in_o the_o world_n or_o as_o saint_n james_n speak_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o his_o epistle_n to_o keep_v ourselves_o unspotted_a of_o the_o world_n so_o long_o as_o we_o carry_v the_o corrupt_a world_n in_o our_o breast_n neither_o shall_v our_o religion_n be_v pure_a for_o thus_o it_o be_v faide_v if_o any_o man_n among_o you_o seem_v religious_a and_o refrain_v not_o his_o tongue_n but_o deceive_v his_o own_o heart_n this_o man_n religion_n be_v vain_a pure_a religion_n and_o undefiled_a before_o god_n even_o the_o father_n be_v this_o to_o visit_v the_o fatherless_a and_o widow_n in_o their_o distress_n and_o to_o keep_v himself_o unspotted_a of_o the_o world_n the_o second_o sermon_n upon_o the_o 5.6_o and_o 7._o verse_n 5_o therefore_o give_v even_o all_o diligence_n thereunto_o join_v moreover_o virtue_n with_o your_o faith_n and_o with_o virtue_n knowledge_n 6_o and_o with_o knowledge_n temperance_n and_o with_o temperance_n patience_n and_o with_o patience_n godliness_n 7_o and_o with_o godliness_n brotherlie_a kindness_n and_o with_o brotherlie_a kindness_n love_n and_o hereunto_o give_v all_o diligence_n etc._n etc._n he_o have_v declare_v in_o the_o former_a verse_n among_o other_o chief_a matter_n this_o one_o especial_o to_o how_o great_a holiness_n and_o pureness_n through_o sanctification_n we_o be_v call_v which_o be_v chief_o express_v in_o these_o word_n that_o by_o they_o you_o may_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n in_o that_o you_o fly_v the_o corruption_n which_o be_v in_o the_o world_n through_o lust_n unto_o this_o now_o he_o join_v a_o exhortation_n require_v at_o their_o hand_n not_o only_o to_o put_v to_o their_o diligence_n but_o also_o as_o he_o say_v even_o all_o diligence_n for_o as_o it_o be_v the_o great_a and_o chief_a thing_n which_o we_o be_v to_o look_v after_o so_o there_o be_v require_v at_o our_o hand_n to_o give_v our_o principal_a care_n and_o study_v thereunto_o this_o equity_n must_v easy_o be_v grant_v that_o if_o we_o can_v obtain_v or_o get_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o life_n which_o be_v small_a in_o comparison_n unless_o we_o put_v to_o our_o diligence_n for_o god_n will_v have_v it_o to_o be_v so_o that_o then_o of_o good_a right_n

declare_v a_o wonderful_a faith_n and_o love_n towards_o god_n as_o we_o may_v easy_o see_v consider_v all_o the_o whole_a circumstance_n of_o the_o story_n god_n have_v call_v he_o out_o of_o his_o native_a country_n and_o from_o his_o father_n house_n into_o a_o strange_a land_n he_o have_v promise_v he_o a_o son_n by_o his_o wife_n sara_n of_o who_o the_o bless_a seed_n shall_v come_v he_o perform_v this_o promise_n in_o his_o old_a age_n even_o when_o sara_n be_v by_o nature_n past_o childbearing_n 21.12_o gen._n 21.12_o he_o have_v no_o other_o child_n by_o she_o the_o promise_n be_v make_v in_o none_o but_o in_o he_o in_o isaac_n shall_v thy_o seed_n be_v bless_v each_o man_n shall_v now_o be_v drive_v to_o confess_v that_o here_o be_v a_o great_a trial_n when_o god_n do_v bid_v he_o take_v his_o only_a son_n even_o isaac_n and_o go_v three_o day_n journey_n to_o the_o place_n which_o he_o will_v show_v he_o and_o to_o offer_v he_o upon_o the_o altar_n a_o slay_v sacrifice_n how_o great_a a_o grief_n be_v it_o for_o a_o love_a father_n to_o loose_v a_o son_n which_o he_o love_v dear_o especial_o when_o he_o have_v no_o more_o son_n then_o how_o much_o grief_n may_v this_o be_v not_o only_o to_o see_v his_o son_n slay_v but_o also_o to_o slay_v he_o with_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o most_o of_o all_o that_o child_n in_o who_o the_o covenant_n of_o eternal_a life_n be_v make_v because_o christ_n shall_v come_v of_o he_o who_o be_v dead_a all_o hope_n of_o salvation_n do_v die_v with_o he_o all_o this_o do_v not_o withhold_v but_o the_o faith_n of_o abraham_n carry_v so_o great_a a_o love_n in_o he_o and_o fear_n towards_o god_n that_o he_o never_o grudge_v at_o the_o matter_n nor_o never_o make_v delay_n but_o go_v indeed_o to_o have_v slay_v his_o son_n have_v bind_v he_o upon_o the_o wood_n and_o have_v take_v in_o his_o hand_n the_o sacrifice_a knife_n to_o kill_v he_o then_o the_o angel_n of_o the_o lord_n from_o heaven_n do_v forbid_v he_o before_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v as_o if_o it_o have_v be_v do_v because_o abraham_n do_v full_o purpose_n to_o do_v it_o then_o we_o see_v plain_o by_o this_o what_o the_o true_a faith_n be_v but_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v object_v and_o say_v this_o example_n be_v not_o fit_a every_o man_n can_v not_o be_v like_o abraham_n nor_o have_v such_o a_o faith_n as_o he_o have_v he_o be_v a_o rare_a man_n few_o or_o none_o to_o be_v compare_v with_o he_o saint_n james_n do_v answer_v if_o you_o think_v this_o example_n to_o be_v too_o high_a and_o that_o you_o be_v not_o to_o be_v measure_v by_o it_o i_o will_v show_v you_o another_o as_o low_a what_o say_v you_o to_o rahab_n the_o harlot_n be_v not_o she_o justify_v by_o work_n do_v not_o her_o faith_n declare_v itself_o by_o good_a work_n can_v you_o take_v any_o exception_n against_o this_o example_n will_v you_o not_o be_v ashamed_a that_o your_o faith_n shall_v not_o be_v like_o she_o as_o the_o faith_n of_o abraham_n do_v utter_v itself_o to_o the_o world_n so_o do_v she_o whereby_o she_o show_v herself_o to_o be_v a_o right_a daughter_n of_o abraham_n although_o she_o be_v not_o of_o his_o posterity_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n but_o come_v of_o one_o of_o those_o curse_a nation_n which_o god_n have_v command_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n to_o root_v out_o and_o destroy_v yet_o i_o say_v she_o be_v his_o daughter_n according_a as_o saint_n paul_n set_v it_o forth_o in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v the_o father_n not_o only_o of_o they_o which_o be_v of_o the_o circumcision_n but_o also_o of_o those_o that_o walk_v in_o the_o step_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o our_o father_n abraham_n like_v as_o all_o his_o child_n both_o of_o the_o jew_n and_o gentile_n must_v do_v which_o will_v be_v bless_v with_o their_o faithful_a father_n abraham_n then_o we_o have_v here_o the_o example_n of_o the_o father_n of_o all_o the_o faithful_a with_o the_o example_n of_o one_o of_o his_o daughter_n which_o have_v be_v a_o poor_a harlot_n what_o excuse_n remain_v or_o what_o can_v we_o pretend_v shall_v we_o not_o blush_v and_o be_v ashamed_a to_o say_v that_o we_o believe_v well_o and_o take_v ourselves_o to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o abraham_n and_o the_o child_n of_o god_n when_o we_o be_v no_o more_o like_o he_o than_o as_o the_o common_a say_n be_v a_o apple_n be_v like_o a_o oyster_n christ_n our_o saviour_n do_v use_v this_o reason_n against_o the_o pharisy_n in_o the_o gospel_n of_o saint_n john_n if_o you_o be_v abraham_n child_n say_v he_o you_o will_v do_v the_o

little_a after_o you_o be_v of_o your_o father_n the_o devil_n and_o the_o lust_n of_o your_o father_n you_o will_v do_v what_o will_v you_o have_v more_o plain_a than_o this_o even_o the_o very_a seed_n and_o posterity_n of_o abraham_n which_o take_v themselves_o to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o abraham_n and_o the_o child_n of_o god_n yet_o christ_n jesus_n tell_v they_o plain_o they_o be_v the_o

shall_v do_v well_o enough_o although_o we_o continue_v in_o our_o sin_n this_o be_v a_o most_o pestilent_a craft_n of_o satan_n and_o come_v from_o the_o root_n of_o infidelity_n as_o you_o may_v
