the_o little_a boy_n which_o run_v to_o our_o friend_n jesus_n christ_n who_o then_o come_v and_o pay_v our_o debt_n pacify_v the_o conscience_n and_o we_o go_v free_a second_o 17._o because_o it_o make_v we_o one_o with_o christ_n as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o galatian_n and_o in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o ephesian_n we_o be_v flesh_n of_o his_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o his_o bone_n and_o therefore_o be_v one_o with_o he_o all_o the_o holy_a virtue_n that_o be_v in_o he_o be_v make_v we_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n his_o patience_n his_o love_n his_o meekness_n his_o goodness_n his_o holiness_n and_o whatsoever_o be_v in_o he_o we_o partake_v of_o it_o as_o we_o see_v in_o experience_n if_o a_o man_n be_v marry_v to_o a_o woman_n whatsoever_o he_o have_v he_o communicate_v to_o his_o wife_n for_o if_o he_o be_v rich_a she_o can_v be_v poor_a if_o he_o be_v noble_a she_o can_v be_v base_a for_o look_v what_o the_o man_n have_v he_o communicate_v to_o his_o wife_n even_o

his_o hand_n cut_v off_o nor_o lose_v his_o eye_n because_o it_o then_o be_v the_o eye_n or_o hand_n of_o the_o king_n son_n even_o so_o this_o be_v the_o skill_n and_o cunning_n of_o faith_n it_o make_v we_o member_n and_o part_n of_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o be_v but_o the_o least_o bone_n in_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n god_n will_v not_o cast_v we_o away_o we_o shall_v not_o perish_v for_o his_o son_n sake_n so_o that_o faith_n do_v not_o save_v we_o by_o reason_n it_o be_v a_o more_o holy_a quality_n than_o other_o grace_n or_o for_o the_o worthiness_n of_o it_o above_o other_o but_o because_o it_o make_v we_o one_o with_o christ_n as_o if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o stone_n in_o a_o ring_n that_o can_v heal_v many_o disease_n we_o say_v it_o be_v the_o ring_n but_o indeed_o it_o be_v not_o the_o ring_n but_o the_o stone_n in_o the_o ring_n that_o cure_v they_o and_o even_o so_o it_o be_v say_v faith_n save_v we_o but_o not_o by_o the_o own_o

heaven_n for_o when_o we_o have_v sin_v and_o grieve_v god_n and_o be_v smite_v in_o conscience_n for_o it_o accuse_v and_o condemn_v 1_o than_o faith_n work_v in_o heaven_n by_o tender_v and_o offer_v up_o jesus_n christ_n to_o god_n for_o our_o redemption_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o his_o justice_n 2_o second_o faith_n work_v in_o earth_n by_o stir_v up_o sanctify_v and_o holy_a motion_n now_o two_o way_n it_o may_v stir_v up_o good_a motion_n first_o by_o the_o meditation_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n second_o by_o combination_n or_o conjunction_n with_o christ_n first_o by_o meditation_n for_o faith_n do_v carry_v we_o to_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n there_o to_o behold_v the_o great_a pain_n that_o he_o have_v suffer_v for_o we_o how_o his_o body_n be_v rack_v and_o torment_v for_o we_o and_o to_o this_o end_n faith_n make_v we_o consider_v these_o three_o thing_n 1._o the_o cause_n of_o his_o death_n 2._o the_o end_n of_o his_o death_n 3._o the_o manner_n of_o his_o death_n first_o 1_o to_o consider_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o death_n that_o it_o be_v nothing_o in_o himself_o but_o it_o be_v our_o sin_n consideration_n and_o transgression_n that_o cause_v his_o body_n to_o be_v whip_v his_o face_n to_o be_v buffet_v his_o hand_n to_o be_v pierce_v his_o foot_n to_o be_v nail_v his_o head_n to_o be_v crown_v his_o side_n to_o be_v lance_v with_o a_o speate_v so_o that_o our_o sin_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o all_o the_o grievous_a thing_n that_o he_o suffer_v as_o it_o be_v in_o three_o and_o fifty_o chapter_n of_o isaiah_n and_o the_o five_o verse_n but_o he_o be_v wound_v for_o our_o transgression_n he_o be_v break_v for_o our_o iniquity_n the_o chastisement_n of_o our_o peace_n be_v upon_o he_o and_o with_o his_o stripe_n we_o be_v heal_v and_o 1_o peter_n 2._o 24._o who_o his_o own_o self_n bear_v our_o sin_n in_o his_o body_n on_o the_o tree_n that_o we_o be_v deliver_v from_o sin_n shall_v live_v in_o righteousness_n by_o who_o stripe_n we_o be_v heal_v and_o therefore_o see_v our_o sin_n cause_v this_o cruel_a death_n and_o grievous_a pain_n to_o be_v upon_o christ_n to_o do_v the_o like_a to_o our_o sin_n to_o go_v to_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n to_o take_v they_o down_o to_o crucify_v they_o to_o hang_v they_o up_o to_o take_v the_o spear_n out_o of_o christ_n side_n sin_n to_o thrust_v it_o into_o the_o side_n of_o sin_n as_o in_o the_o revelation_n we_o may_v see_v a_o voice_n come_v to_o the_o church_n concern_v bloody_a babylon_n reward_v she_o as_o she_o have_v reward_v you_o so_o do_v this_o voice_n come_v to_o a_o christian_a concern_v sin_n reward_v it_o as_o that_o have_v reward_v christ_n that_o will_v not_o let_v christ_n to_o be_v at_o rest_n till_o it_o have_v kill_v he_o even_o so_o we_o shall_v not_o let_v sin_n be_v at_o rest_n till_o we_o have_v kill_v it_o say_v augustine_n if_o one_o shall_v kill_v thy_o father_n or_o thy_o mother_n will_v thou_o entertain_v he_o into_o thy_o house_n will_v thou_o let_v he_o feed_v at_o thy_o table_n nay_o thou_o will_v hate_v he_o and_o spit_v at_o he_o nay_o say_v he_o sin_n have_v not_o kill_v thy_o father_n and_o mother_n but_o it_o have_v kill_v christ_n thy_o saviour_n and_o redeemer_n what_o say_v he_o will_v thou_o then_o entertain_v sin_n will_v thou_o let_v it_o sleep_v in_o thy_o bosom_n will_v thou_o feed_v it_o nay_o say_v he_o hate_v it_o defy_v it_o and_o spit_v at_o it_o as_o at_o a_o toad_n the_o second_o thing_n we_o be_v to_o consider_v 2_o be_v the_o end_n of_o christ_n death_n now_o all_o the_o pain_n that_o christ_n suffer_v consideration_n it_o be_v to_o abolish_v sin_n so_o we_o see_v heb._n 9_o 26._o but_o now_o in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n have_v he_o appear_v once_o to_o put_v away_o sin_n by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o himself_o 1_o joh._n 3._o 8._o for_o this_o purpose_n appear_v the_o son_n of_o god_n that_o he_o may_v loose_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o therefore_o see_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o abolish_v sin_n if_o we_o live_v in_o it_o we_o make_v all_o the_o pain_n of_o christ_n suffering_n and_o his_o death_n of_o none_o effect_n wherein_o judge_v you_o what_o a_o injury_n and_o wrong_n be_v offer_v to_o christ_n the_o prophet_n complain_v esai_n 49._o 4._o that_o he_o labour_v and_o spend_v his_o strength_n in_o vain_a and_o for_o nothing_o such_o a_o complaint_n may_v christ_n take_v up_o against_o we_o on_o the_o cross_n for_o this_o cause_n be_v i_o send_v of_o my_o father_n into_o the_o world_n to_o abolish_v sin_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n be_v i_o enclose_v nine_o month_n in_o the_o dark_a womb_n of_o the_o virgin_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n be_v i_o bear_v in_o a_o stable_n and_o lay_v in_o a_o manger_n for_o this_o cause_n be_v i_o thirty_o three_o year_n labour_v among_o you_o for_o this_o cause_n do_v i_o die_v a_o curse_a death_n on_o the_o corsse_n all_o this_o be_v to_o abolish_v sin_n and_o therefore_o if_o man_n live_v in_o sin_n still_o it_o may_v seem_v to_o they_o christ_n have_v spend_v all_o his_o labour_n and_o strength_n in_o vain_a nay_o he_o may_v say_v he_o have_v spend_v his_o blood_n even_o all_o his_o blood_n even_o five_o stream_n of_o blood_n that_o come_v from_o he_o and_o all_o this_o in_o vain_a to_o they_o it_o be_v say_v

suffer_v of_o good_a but_o of_o bad_a man_n divers_a be_v well_o enough_o content_v to_o suffer_v of_o good_a man_n as_o david_n psalm_n 141._o let_v the_o righteous_a smite_v i_o lord_n and_o that_o shall_v be_v good_a for_o i_o but_o for_o drunkard_n and_o vile_a person_n to_o do_v it_o they_o can_v endure_v it_o oh_o say_v some_o man_n if_o they_o have_v be_v good_a man_n that_o have_v do_v it_o it_o will_v never_o have_v grieve_v we_o but_o to_o suffer_v of_o such_o bad_a man_n as_o they_o this_o trouble_v we_o well_o but_o we_o must_v be_v content_v to_o suffer_v of_o the_o base_a sort_n simile_n we_o see_v sometime_o it_o fall_v out_o that_o a_o noble_a man_n suffer_v at_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o base_a man_n than_o himself_o to_o have_v his_o head_n take_v off_o but_o he_o know_v that_o his_o power_n be_v direct_v by_o a_o great_a power_n than_o he_o which_o make_v he_o submit_v himself_o to_o suffer_v so_o many_o time_n a_o christian_a may_v suffer_v at_o the_o hand_n of_o one_o base_a than_o himself_o but_o he_o must_v know_v that_o the_o power_n that_o he_o do_v it_o by_o be_v direct_v by_o a_o power_n far_o great_a than_o his_o own_o now_o that_o which_o christ_n suffer_v of_o man_n may_v be_v consider_v in_o three_o thing_n 1._o his_o apprehension_n 2._o his_o arraignment_n 3._o his_o condemnation_n in_o the_o apprehension_n of_o christ_n we_o observe_v four_o thing_n 1._o the_o place_n where_o 2._o the_o time_n when_o 3._o his_o preparation_n for_o it_o 4._o the_o mean_n and_o manner_n of_o it_o first_o where_o the_o place_n where_o christ_n be_v apprehend_v the_o text_n say_v in_o the_o garden_n not_o in_o the_o city_n for_o there_o be_v a_o specification_n of_o the_o place_n and_o that_o be_v in_o the_o garden_n of_o which_o there_o be_v three_o reason_n why_o christ_n be_v apprehend_v in_o the_o garden_n first_o because_o sin_n begin_v in_o the_o garden_n the_o first_o adam_n do_v begin_v sin_n there_o that_o as_o a_o learned_a man_n say_v where_o the_o wound_n begin_v there_o the_o medicine_n may_v begin_v also_o second_o 2_o because_o the_o garden_n be_v the_o place_n where_o christ_n have_v pray_v and_o meditate_a in_o and_o therefore_o he_o will_v be_v apprehend_v there_o teach_v we_o all_o herein_o this_o most_o excellent_a instruction_n that_o it_o be_v a_o good_a thing_n when_o death_n or_o danger_n come_v that_o it_o find_v we_o in_o the_o place_n where_o we_o have_v repent_v of_o our_o sin_n and_o most_o constant_o walk_v with_o god_n by_o holy_a meditation_n and_o prayer_n where_o we_o have_v pray_v to_o god_n and_o humble_v ourselves_o so_o dan._n 6._o we_o see_v that_o his_o accuser_n do_v not_o only_o find_v he_o in_o the_o place_n but_o in_o the_o act_n of_o prayer_n this_o also_o give_v comfort_n to_o saint_n paul_n in_o his_o trouble_n act._n 24._o 18._o that_o he_o be_v find_v in_o the_o temple_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v o_o lord_n i_o thank_v thou_o that_o i_o be_v not_o find_v in_o the_o place_n of_o drunkenness_n of_o dishonesty_n and_o profaneness_n but_o in_o the_o temple_n the_o place_n of_o prayer_n when_o joseph_n and_o mary_n seek_v for_o christ_n luke_n 2._o among_o their_o kindred_n simile_n they_o can_v not_o find_v he_o there_o but_o they_o seek_v he_o in_o the_o temple_n and_o there_o they_o find_v he_o so_o if_o any_o seek_v for_o we_o it_o be_v good_a that_o we_o be_v find_v in_o the_o temple_n in_o the_o place_n of_o preach_v prayer_n and_o holy_a duty_n but_o i_o fear_v i_o if_o some_o be_v to_o be_v seek_v for_o they_o shall_v not_o find_v they_o in_o the_o temple_n nor_o in_o the_o place_n of_o prayer_n but_o idle_a at_o home_n or_o a_o swagger_a at_o the_o alehouse_n in_o place_n of_o drunkenness_n and_o profaneness_n when_o elias_n 1_o king_n 19_o be_v come_v into_o the_o cave_n simile_n there_o come_v a_o voice_n unto_o he_o what_o do_v thou_o here_o elias_n thou_o be_v a_o prophet_n of_o god_n this_o be_v not_o a_o fit_a place_n for_o thou_o to_o be_v in_o so_o when_o man_n be_v in_o profane_a place_n of_o disorder_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n come_v to_o they_o by_o the_o motion_n of_o it_o and_o say_v what_o do_v thou_o here_o thou_o be_v a_o christian_n this_o be_v not_o a_o fit_a place_n for_o thou_o to_o be_v here_o therefore_o as_o christ_n be_v find_v in_o the_o place_n of_o meditation_n and_o prayer_n when_o he_o be_v apprehend_v so_o we_o shall_v labour_v to_o be_v find_v when_o death_n and_o danger_n come_v in_o the_o place_n where_o we_o have_v repent_v of_o our_o sin_n and_o where_o we_o have_v pray_v in_o three_o 3_o because_o it_o be_v a_o know_a place_n to_o judas_n for_o jesus_n resort_v thither_o with_o his_o disciple_n to_o show_v that_o christ_n go_v willing_o to_o his_o death_n for_o if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v willing_a he_o will_v have_v go_v to_o some_o other_o place_n more_o secret_a at_o other_o time_n he_o shun_v death_n but_o now_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o die_v which_o shall_v teach_v we_o that_o so_o long_o as_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o live_v we_o shall_v be_v content_v to_o live_v and_o when_o he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o die_v we_o shall_v also_o be_v content_v to_o die_v when_o we_o perceive_v the_o hour_n and_o the_o time_n be_v simile_n i_o have_v show_v you_o heretofore_o that_o if_o a_o merchant_n have_v send_v his_o servant_n to_o trade_n and_o traffic_v beyond_o the_o sea_n so_o long_o as_o his_o master_n will_v have_v he_o trade_n he_o trade_v but_o when_o his_o master_n will_v have_v he_o pack_v up_o all_o and_o come_v away_o he_o do_v so_o thus_o must_v a_o christian_a do_v so_o long_o as_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o trade_v here_o in_o this_o world_n we_o shall_v be_v content_v but_o when_o he_o will_v have_v we_o pack_v up_o all_o and_o return_v we_o shall_v be_v content_v to_o do_v so_o too_o second_o when_o the_o time_n when_o christ_n be_v apprehend_v when_o his_o hour_n be_v come_v so_o joh._n 19_o 28._o when_o jesus_n know_v all_o thing_n be_v fulfil_v of_o he_o address_v himself_o to_o die_v so_o he_o say_v luk._n 22._o 53._o when_o i_o be_v daily_o in_o the_o temple_n you_o take_v i_o not_o

no_o long_o than_o they_o see_v with_o their_o eye_n and_o feel_v with_o their_o finger_n for_o a_o christian_a must_v believe_v god_n against_o sense_n and_o reason_n it_o be_v the_o manner_n of_o the_o world_n as_o long_o as_o they_o see_v with_o their_o eye_n and_o feel_v with_o their_o hand_n as_o long_o as_o they_o have_v peace_n and_o ease_n and_o wealth_n so_o long_o they_o do_v believe_v god_n but_o when_o this_o fail_v than_o their_o faith_n fail_v they_o ay_o but_o christ_n say_v to_o thomas_n bless_a be_v they_o which_o believe_v and_o see_v not_o thomas_n do_v believe_v when_o he_o see_v but_o it_o be_v a_o more_o bless_a thing_n to_o believe_v and_o see_v not_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v rest_v in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n against_o sense_n and_o reason_n now_o find_v this_o weakness_n of_o faith_n in_o they_o he_o do_v labour_n to_o re-establish_a and_o strengthen_v they_o lo_o here_o we_o may_v see_v the_o goodness_n of_o god_n that_o by_o the_o weakness_n of_o their_o faith_n he_o do_v take_v occasion_n to_o strengthen_v the_o same_o it_o be_v the_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n that_o all_o thing_n shall_v work_v together_o for_o the_o good_a of_o they_o that_o love_v he_o there_o be_v a_o number_n of_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n that_o seem_v to_o work_v against_o the_o people_n of_o god_n but_o god_n turn_v all_o of_o they_o to_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n simile_n and_o of_o they_o that_o love_v he_o as_o we_o see_v in_o a_o clock_n that_o some_o wheel_n turn_v one_o way_n and_o some_o another_o yet_o all_o serve_v to_o make_v the_o clock_n go_v so_o there_o be_v many_o cross_n and_o contrary_a thing_n in_o this_o world_n but_o all_o serve_v to_o one_o end_n even_o to_o work_v for_o the_o good_a of_o they_o that_o love_v he_o this_o may_v bring_v comfort_n to_o christian_n that_o the_o weakness_n of_o their_o faith_n the_o lord_n can_v turn_v to_o their_o good_a simile_n we_o see_v in_o experience_n if_o a_o man_n set_v young_a tree_n he_o will_v pull_v and_o shake_v the_o tree_n as_o if_o he_o will_v pull_v it_o up_o and_o all_o that_o he_o do_v be_v but_o to_o settle_v the_o tree_n the_o fast_o even_o so_o the_o lord_n do_v many_o time_n as_o if_o he_o will_v overthrow_v a_o christian_n and_o yet_o all_o be_v to_o settle_v his_o faith_n and_o to_o make_v he_o cleave_v the_o fast_o to_o god_n now_o christ_n do_v strengthen_v the_o faith_n of_o his_o disciple_n two_o way_n 1._o by_o reprove_v and_o rebuke_v of_o they_o 2._o by_o inform_v they_o first_o he_o reprove_v and_o rebuke_n they_o that_o they_o be_v slow_a of_o heart_n to_o believe_v the_o scripture_n which_o may_v teach_v we_o that_o if_o there_o be_v a_o presence_n of_o god_n among_o we_o he_o will_v be_v reprove_v of_o we_o whereas_o many_o think_v they_o may_v go_v away_o with_o any_o sin_n close_o yet_o if_o there_o be_v a_o presence_n of_o christ_n among_o we_o he_o will_v reprove_v we_o for_o our_o sin_n and_o for_o the_o weakness_n of_o our_o faith_n this_o be_v that_o which_o christ_n speak_v in_o the_o gospel_n of_o saint_n john_n that_o when_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n he_o shall_v reprove_v the_o world_n of_o sin_n etc._n etc._n so_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v come_v into_o our_o heart_n he_o will_v reprove_v we_o for_o misspend_v the_o time_n for_o our_o ignorance_n for_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v amiss_o but_o if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o thou_o but_o thou_o be_v at_o peace_n and_o secure_o sleep_v in_o thy_o sin_n than_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o come_v into_o thou_o for_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v come_v into_o thou_o he_o will_v reprove_v thou_o of_o thy_o sin_n and_o make_v thou_o say_v as_o the_o leper_n say_v we_o do_v not_o well_o to_o tarry_v here_o etc._n etc._n o_o we_o do_v not_o well_o to_o break_v the_o sabbath_n to_o be_v drunken_a to_o speak_v filthy_o we_o do_v not_o well_o to_o lie_v or_o to_o swear_v now_o what_o be_v that_o he_o reprove_v they_o for_o that_o they_o be_v slow_a of_o heart_n to_o believe_v the_o scripture_n and_o here_o we_o be_v to_o take_v notice_n of_o a_o corruption_n that_o be_v in_o we_o that_o we_o be_v slow_a to_o believe_v the_o scripture_n and_o the_o gospel_n but_o quick_a to_o believe_v a_o foolish_a tale_n or_o a_o lie_n or_o a_o false_a

of_o it_o if_o there_o be_v a_o false_a report_n of_o a_o good_a minister_n or_o of_o a_o good_a christian_a that_o we_o can_v believe_v present_o but_o we_o be_v slow_a to_o believe_v the_o

not_o die_v at_o all_o clean_a contrary_n and_o yet_o we_o see_v that_o they_o be_v more_o ready_a to_o believe_v the_o devil_n than_o god_n will_v you_o see_v a_o comparison_n to_o explain_v it_o the_o better_a simile_n if_o a_o earthly_a king_n shall_v say_v to_o we_o if_o you_o will_v be_v content_v to_o do_v i_o some_o service_n a_o few_o day_n and_o to_o attend_v i_o i_o will_v afterward_o

unto_o you_o god_n assist_v the_o next_o time_n of_o our_o meeting_n sermon_n xxxiiii_o luke_n 24._o 26_o 27._o ought_v not_o christ_n to_o have_v suffer_v these_o thing_n and_o to_o enter_v into_o

how_o christ_n do_v labour_n to_o xxxiiii_o strengthen_v the_o weak_a faith_n of_o his_o disciple_n when_o they_o be_v go_v to_o emmaus_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o travel_v with_o they_o and_o overhear_v they_o that_o so_o that_o which_o do_v serve_v to_o strengthen_v they_o in_o their_o faith_n simile_n may_v serve_v to_o strengthen_v we_o in_o we_o if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o leg_n or_o a_o arm_n out_o of_o joint_n he_o can_v be_v at_o rest_n until_o it_o be_v set_v again_o even_o so_o when_o we_o feel_v weakness_n of_o faith_n let_v we_o not_o be_v at_o rest_n till_o we_o have_v get_v the_o same_o strength_n of_o faith_n that_o we_o have_v before_o therefore_o let_v we_o creep_v into_o the_o company_n of_o christ_n simile_n and_o go_v as_o far_o as_o emmaus_n with_o he_o if_o a_o man_n hang_v on_o the_o top_n of_o a_o high_a tower_n by_o the_o hand_n and_o there_o be_v a_o number_n of_o sharp_a stone_n under_o he_o that_o if_o he_o fall_v it_o will_v burst_v he_o in_o piece_n how_o careful_a will_v he_o be_v to_o strengthen_v that_o hand_n lest_o he_o fall_v down_o so_o faith_n be_v the_o hand_n we_o lay_v hold_v on_o god_n by_o and_o we_o hang_v as_o it_o be_v at_o the_o
