this_o soon_o or_o short_o must_v agree_v with_o that_o which_o be_v write_v in_o many_o other_o place_n 14â—_n num._n 14â—_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o although_o god_n wrath_n light_n sudden_o

soon_o than_o they_o will_v you_o see_v then_o that_o this_o soon_o short_o by_o and_o by_o or_o out_o of_o hand_n must_v be_v refer_v to_o man_n carelessness_n who_o make_v their_o account_n that_o

after_o once_o and_o here_o the_o people_n say_v we_o have_v hear_v the_o voice_n of_o god_n but_o if_o he_o speak_v to_o we_o again_o we_o die_v for_o it_o we_o be_v undo_v we_o be_v forlorn_v it_o

for_o man_n to_o excuse_v themselves_o by_o say_v as_o for_o i_o i_o mean_v not_o to_o abolish_v all_o religion_n and_o yet_o if_o i_o like_v well_o of_o this_o thing_n why_o shall_v it_o not_o be_v

and_o that_o when_o we_o have_v once_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o true_a religion_n that_o must_v suffice_v we_o and_o that_o if_o we_o go_v astraye_v it_o be_v through_o our_o own_o fault_n and_o

of_o quarrel_n which_o else_o will_v be_v endless_a between_o man_n and_o man_n the_o solution_n be_v very_o easy_a namely_o that_o if_o a_o man_n stand_v against_o a_o definitive_a sentence_n his_o

as_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v unto_o we_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o the_o son_n of_o god_n speak_v to_o we_o himself_o and_o therefore_o that_o he_o ought_v much_o rather_o to_o be_v hear_v than_o moses_n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o law_n be_v of_o god_n likewise_o and_o it_o be_v give_v by_o the_o very_a spirit_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n but_o as_o now_o we_o stand_v upon_o

all_o kind_n of_o whoredom_n displease_v god_n for_o we_o must_v ever_o return_v back_o to_o this_o principle_n or_o ground_n that_o since_o god_n bless_a man_n and_o woman_n when_o he_o join_v they_o

those_o heartbreaking_n breed_v not_o any_o deadly_a fall_n he_o add_v the_o reason_n namely_o that_o it_o be_v the_o mortify_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o they_o bear_v as_o if_o he_o

our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n nor_o receive_v he_o with_o such_o reverence_n as_o to_o become_v like_o poor_a hungry_a soul_n so_o then_o we_o see_v how_o we_o have_v need_n of_o this_o warning_n that_o we_o must_v be_v gather_v up_o with_o who_o with_o those_o which_o have_v go_v before_o us._n and_o without_o that_o what_o comfort_n shall_v we_o have_v less_o than_o the_o brute_n beast_n

of_o the_o earth_n and_o to_o all_o provision_n it_o seem_v here_o at_o the_o first_o show_n that_o god_n mean_v to_o pamper_v his_o people_n as_o though_o he_o will_v set_v they_o up_o in_o a_o sty_n

may_v be_v among_o we_o by_o mean_n whereof_o he_o be_v fain_o to_o withdraw_v his_o hand_n and_o to_o give_v we_o but_o a_o portion_n of_o his_o blessing_n because_o that_o if_o we_o shall_v have_v so_o much_o as_o he_o can_v find_v in_o his_o heart_n to_o bestow_v upon_o we_o it_o shall_v glut_v we_o and_o in_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v be_v choke_v therewith_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n then_o why_o god_n do_v here_o so_o great_o magnify_v his_o blessing_n it_o be_v do_v not_o for_o that_o man_n have_v ever_o be_v bless_v in_o all_o manner_n of_o respect_n without_o feel_v of_o any_o evil_a to_o vex_v they_o this_o i_o say_v never_o happen_v and_o wherefore_o then_o do_v god_n promise_v it_o as_o we_o have_v say_v afore_o it_o be_v to_o make_v we_o understande_v that_o whensoever_o our_o life_n be_v not_o so_o bless_v as_o we_o cover_v we_o shall_v consider_v that_o god_n know_v we_o to_o be_v unable_a to_o receive_v the_o fullness_n of_o his_o benefit_n and_o therefore_o be_v fain_o to_o distribute_v they_o unto_o we_o by_o piece_n meal_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o sick_a folk_n or_o little_a child_n which_o for_o want_v of_o discretion_n be_v fain_o to_o be_v govern_v by_o

our_o lust_n be_v miserable_o corrupt_v god_n bestow_v his_o blessing_n upon_o we_o sufficient_o but_o we_o like_o sick_a folk_n do_v refuse_v good_a meat_n and_o fall_v to_o foul_a feed_n which_o

behove_v for_o we_o will_v infect_v and_o defile_v all_o if_o he_o provide_v not_o for_o it_o aforehande_v let_v we_o mark_v therefore_o that_o god_n do_v here_o warn_v we_o to_o call_v our_o sin_n to_o remembrance_n and_o to_o bewail_v they_o as_o often_o as_o we_o enjoy_v not_o such_o fullness_n of_o his_o blessing_n as_o be_v here_o mention_v nevertheless_o he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o hope_n that_o by_o serve_v of_o he_o we_o shall_v prosper_v and_o have_v enough_o for_o our_o contentment_n and_o indeed_o we_o see_v how_o all_o the_o faithful_a have_v in_o that_o behalf_n behave_v

towards_o we_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o be_v not_o find_v unthankful_a for_o his_o grace_n this_o be_v the_o cause_n say_v i_o why_o we_o conceive_v not_o the_o value_n of_o the_o blessing_n

to_o put_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n quite_o out_o of_o cast_n with_o us._n and_o when_o he_o have_v do_v we_o all_o the_o good_a that_o can_v be_v devise_v yet_o do_v it_o ever_o run_v in_o our_o

they_o over_o or_o let_v they_o slip_v contrariwise_o therefore_o when_o our_o lord_n afflict_v we_o let_v we_o receive_v the_o comfort_n that_o he_o give_v we_o to_o moderate_v our_o heaviness_n and_o then_o shall_v we_o continue_v to_o walk_v on_o our_o way_n and_o albeit_o we_o be_v fain_o to_o endure_v many_o thing_n and_o that_o by_o reason_n of_o our_o frailty_n and_o feebleness_n we_o

here_o before_o therefore_o have_v we_o need_v to_o be_v mindful_a of_o this_o lesson_n to_o wit_n that_o if_o we_o will_v prosper_v yea_o even_o in_o this_o present_a life_n there_o be_v none_o other_o mean_a for_o it_o but_o to_o put_v ourselves_o under_o god_n guide_v who_o have_v all_o good_n in_o his_o power_n to_o bestow_v on_o who_o it_o please_v he_o hope_v also_o that_o he_o will_v not_o be_v nigarly_a in_o distribute_v his_o gracious_a gift_n unto_o we_o at_o leastwise_o so_o we_o harken_v unto_o his_o voice_n for_o as_o i_o say_v even_o now_o see_v that_o we_o be_v his_o child_n can_v we_o think_v that_o he_o take_v pleasure_n to_o vex_v we_o moreover_o he_o diminish_v not_o be_v he_o never_o so_o liberal_a towards_o we_o yet_o he_o fear_v not_o that_o he_o shall_v have_v aught_o the_o less_o or_o that_o he_o shall_v feel_v any_o want_n for_o he_o be_v a_o fountain_n that_o can_v never_o be_v draw_v dry_a let_v we_o therefore_o be_v persuade_v that_o our_o life_n shall_v always_o be_v accurse_v unless_o we_o return_v to_o this_o point_n where_o to_o moses_n lead_v we_o namely_o to_o hearken_v to_o the_o voice_n of_o our_o god_n to_o be_v thereby_o move_v and_o continual_o confirm_v that_o he_o have_v care_n of_o our_o salvation_n yea_o not_o only_o of_o the_o eternal_a salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n but_o also_o to_o maintain_v we_o in_o the_o state_n of_o this_o earthly_a life_n to_o make_v we_o to_o taste_v present_o of_o his_o love_n and_o goodness_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o may_v content_v and_o suffice_v we_o 1â—_n 1._o cor._n 13_o

and_o in_o the_o dark_a that_o be_v one_o thing_n more_o which_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v upon_o this_o text_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v bless_v if_o we_o harken_v to_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n and_o this_o be_v to_o be_v apply_v to_o all_o the_o part_n of_o our_o life_n as_o for_o example_n when_o a_o man_n will_v prosper_v in_o his_o own_o person_n so_o as_o he_o be_v desirous_a to_o employ_v himself_o in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o to_o obtain_v some_o grace_n to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v not_o be_v unprofitable_a here_o but_o that_o
