A14879	The plaine mans pilgrimage. Or iovrney tovvards heaven Wherein if hee walke carefully he may attaine to euerlasting life. By W.W.	Webster, William, treatise writer.	1613 (1613)	STC 25181; ESTC S101835	77,422	180

of_o his_o death_n and_o resurrection_n mean_v thereby_o that_o we_o which_o be_v join_v unto_o christ_n as_o a_o imp_n be_v to_o the_o stock_n of_o a_o tree_n ought_v so_o to_o live_v of_o his_o life_n as_o there_o may_v not_o appear_v any_o deformity_n in_o we_o but_o that_o as_o he_o have_v dye_v so_o we_o must_v die_v also_o and_o as_o he_o be_v rise_v again_o so_o we_o must_v rise_v again_o likewise_o we_o must_v die_v unto_o sin_n and_o rise_v again_o unto_o newness_n of_o life_n for_o that_o be_v the_o death_n and_o the_o life_n which_o he_o speak_v of_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v in_o he_o and_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o his_o grace_n but_o by_o our_o endeavour_v of_o ourselves_o to_o keep_v his_o commandment_n and_o sooth_o the_o only_a mean_a to_o know_v and_o to_o be_v assure_v in_o ourselves_o that_o we_o dwell_v in_o christ_n and_o christ_n in_o we_o be_v our_o keep_n of_o his_o commandment_n as_o john_n teach_v add_v further_a that_o our_o know_v that_o he_o dwell_v in_o we_o be_v by_o the_o spirit_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o because_o that_o by_o that_o spirit_n we_o endeavour_v to_o follow_v he_o and_o to_o frame_v ourselves_o to_o his_o will_n whereby_o we_o yield_v proof_n of_o the_o union_n that_o be_v between_o he_o and_o we_o for_o even_o as_o the_o child_n of_o the_o world_n witness_v themselves_o to_o be_v alone_o with_o the_o world_n by_o follow_v their_o worldly_a lust_n ambition_n coveteousnes_n and_o pleasure_n which_o may_v be_v likewise_o say_v also_o of_o the_o member_n of_o satan_n so_o in_o like_a case_n the_o christian_n show_v themselves_o to_o be_v make_v one_o with_o christ_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n when_o they_o follow_v christ_n step_n and_o make_v his_o life_n to_o serve_v they_o as_o a_o most_o perfect_a rule_n to_o lead_v their_o life_n by_o what_o remain_v then_o to_o be_v do_v in_o this_o case_n sooth_o that_o we_o on_o our_o part_n do_v enforce_v ourselves_o by_o eschew_v all_o flothfullnesse_n which_o be_v hurtful_a and_o noisome_a in_o this_o behalf_n for_o as_o much_o as_o it_o be_v of_o such_o importance_n that_o we_o can_v neglect_v it_o without_o wilful_a disappoint_v ourselves_o of_o our_o salvation_n and_o sovereign_a felicity_n this_o way_n be_v narrow_a and_o rough_a i_o confess_v it_o be_v so_o as_o all_o christian_n do_v and_o so_o do_v christ_n himself_o say_v it_o also_o for_o in_o as_o much_o as_o thereby_o we_o must_v forsake_v ourselves_o to_o follow_v christ_n which_o be_v very_o painful_a and_o hard_a to_o the_o flesh_n which_o desire_v nothing_o but_o her_o own_o pleasure_n and_o commodity_n no_o doubt_n but_o we_o feel_v it_o to_o be_v very_o bitter_a and_o burdensome_a but_o what_o for_o that_o yet_o must_v we_o take_v that_o way_n without_o step_v aside_o one_o way_n or_o other_o for_o that_o be_v the_o only_a way_n which_o after_o many_o labour_n and_o hard_a pinch_n lead_v in_o the_o end_n unto_o life_n as_o for_o the_o other_o way_n it_o be_v very_o broad_a fair_a and_o accompany_v with_o great_a pleasure_n but_o the_o end_n thereof_o say_v our_o saviour_n lead_v unto_o death_n now_o to_o consider_v that_o it_o be_v much_o better_a to_o go_v by_o labour_n to_o rest_n by_o tribulation_n to_o joy_n by_o death_n to_o life_n than_o contrariwise_o to_o go_v by_o rest_n to_o labour_n by_o joy_n to_o

do_v we_o learn_v when_o we_o think_v of_o this_o but_o that_o which_o moses_n say_v to_o apply_v our_o heart_n unto_o wisdom_n the_o second_o note_n be_v that_o the_o time_n of_o man_n be_v set_v &_o

jeremy_n say_v they_o can_v not_o stand_v because_o the_o day_n of_o their_o destruction_n be_v come_v as_o there_o be_v a_o day_n of_o destruction_n and_o a_o day_n of_o death_n so_o there_o be_v a_o

with_o his_o life_n the_o four_o point_n be_v our_o aptness_n to_o forget_v death_n rather_o than_o any_o thing_n else_o and_o therefore_o moses_n pray_v the_o lord_n to_o teach_v he_o to_o remember_v
