encouragement_n to_o this_o duty_n of_o bear_v the_o reproach_n of_o the_o wicked_a patient_o first_o no_o false_a report_n of_o man_n can_v take_v away_o god_n love_n from_o they_o when_o the_o wicked_a have_v vilify_v they_o what_o they_o can_v speak_v all_o manner_n of_o evil_a of_o they_o to_o make_v they_o odious_a to_o other_o yet_o still_o god_n love_v they_o still_o god_n say_v he_o that_o touch_v you_o touch_v the_o apple_n of_o his_o eye_n zech_n 2.8_o and_o since_o thou_o be_v precious_a in_o my_o sight_n thou_o be_v honourable_a and_o i_o have_v love_v thou_o esay_n 43_o 4._o what_o a_o comfort_n be_v this_o unto_o a_o child_n of_o god_n when_o the_o wicked_a have_v do_v against_o they_o what_o they_o can_v though_o they_o shall_v study_v which_o way_n to_o make_v they_o as_o odious_a as_o they_o can_v yet_o all_o their_o plot_v against_o they_o can_v take_v they_o out_o of_o god_n heart_n second_o consider_v this_o be_v a_o less_o affliction_n than_o god_n may_v lay_v upon_o they_o god_n may_v try_v they_o with_o other_o manner_n of_o suffering_n than_o these_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v you_o have_v not_o yet_o resist_v unto_o blood_n strive_v against_o sin_n god_n may_v call_v his_o people_n to_o lay_v down_o their_o life_n for_o christ_n sake_n and_o to_o forsake_v all_o enjoyment_n under_o christ_n and_o grace_n for_o christ_n sake_n and_o the_o testimony_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o it_o a_o godly_a man_n can_v bear_v these_o less_o affliction_n patient_o how_o shall_v they_o bear_v great_a affliction_n patient_o as_o jer._n 12.5_o if_o thou_o have_v run_v with_o the_o foot_n man_n and_o they_o have_v weary_v thou_o how_o shall_v thou_o match_v thyself_o with_o horse_n so_o if_o thou_o can_v not_o bear_v less_o affliction_n patient_o how_o will_v thou_o bear_v great_a affliction_n patient_o when_o they_o bear_v false_a witness_n against_o stephen_n he_o do_v not_o say_v as_o many_o a_o rust_n an_o will_v do_v if_o they_o be_v anger_v well_o i_o will_v be_v revenge_v of_o such_o a_o one_o i_o will_v have_v his_o blood_n for_o this_o no_o he_o pray_v lord_n lay_v not_o this_o sin_n to_o their_o charge_n do_v he_o bear_v false_a accusation_n and_o death_n itself_o so_o patient_o and_o shall_v not_o the_o godly_a bear_v the_o lesser_a patient_o three_o let_v the_o godly_a bear_v the_o reproach_n of_o the_o wicked_a patient_o because_o god_n will_v one_o day_n clear_v their_o innocency_n if_o not_o in_o this_o life_n yet_o at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n at_o the_o further_a god_n will_v not_o leave_v they_o in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o wicked_a nor_o condemn_v they_o when_o the_o wicked_a judge_v they_o as_o psal_n 37.33_o then_o the_o godly_a shall_v stand_v and_o the_o wicked_a shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o stand_v these_o consideration_n may_v provoke_v the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o bear_v reproach_n patient_o second_o such_o as_o will_v carry_v themselves_o aright_o under_o false_a report_n must_v walk_v humble_o it_o do_v not_o become_v a_o gracious_a spirit_n to_o be_v proud_a though_o they_o be_v clear_a of_o that_o which_o be_v lay_v to_o their_o charge_n lest_o god_n shall_v give_v they_o up_o to_o the_o will_n of_o their_o enemy_n god_n he_o teach_v the_o humble_a guide_v the_o humble_a dwell_v with_o the_o humble_a and_o in_o all_o condition_n it_o become_v saint_n to_o be_v humble_a and_o especial_o when_o they_o lie_v under_o reproach_n three_o as_o humble_o so_o watchful_o it_o become_v the_o godly_a to_o make_v the_o false_a accusation_n of_o the_o wicked_a their_o warning_n oh_o may_v the_o soul_n say_v i_o see_v what_o they_o will_v have_v i_o see_v what_o they_o will_v do_v if_o they_o have_v just_a cause_n well_o i_o will_v be_v more_o watchful_a against_o that_o particular_a sin_n four_o as_o watchful_o so_o thankful_o thankful_o will_v you_o say_v what_o shall_v i_o bless_v god_n that_o i_o be_o false_o accuse_v i_o answer_v thou_o have_v cause_n to_o be_v thankful_a in_o a_o twofold_a respect_n first_o that_o god_n have_v keep_v thou_o from_o that_o sin_n they_o lie_v to_o thy_o charge_n alas_o if_o god_n shall_v leave_v we_o never_o so_o little_a to_o ourselves_o we_o do_v not_o know_v our_o own_o heart_n we_o may_v be_v as_o bad_a as_o the_o worst_a of_o all_o second_o there_o be_v cause_n of_o much_o thankfulness_n that_o god_n make_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o wicked_a as_o a_o warn_n against_o such_o and_o such_o a_o sin_n second_o it_o be_v for_o instruction_n to_o all_o those_o that_o be_v so_o ready_a to_o charge_v the_o people_n of_o god_n with_o thing_n which_o they_o be_v clear_a of_o let_v it_o teach_v they_o to_o take_v heed_n how_o they_o false_o accuse_v any_o of_o god_n people_n first_o consider_v what_o a_o great_a sin_n it_o be_v a_o sin_n against_o the_o 9th_o commandment_n thou_o shall_v not_o bear_v false_a witness_n against_o thy_o neighbour_n it_o be_v a_o sin_n make_v a_o man_n resemble_v the_o devil_n the_o devil_n be_v call_v the_o accuser_n of_o the_o brethren_n this_o sin_n argue_v a_o devilish_a nature_n it_o be_v such_o a_o sin_n as_o plain_o discover_v there_o be_v murder_n in_o the_o heart_n and_o know_v thus_o much_o that_o god_n hear_v all_o thy_o revile_v of_o his_o people_n all_o the_o secret_a malice_n in_o the_o heart_n and_o all_o thy_o secret_a speech_n against_o any_o of_o god_n child_n all_o be_v know_v to_o he_o thou_o will_v be_v loath_a to_o speak_v that_o of_o thy_o neighbour_n if_o he_o be_v present_a that_o thou_o do_v speak_v behind_o his_o back_n but_o god_n hear_v it_o though_o thy_o neighbour_n do_v not_o and_o god_n know_v of_o all_o the_o malice_n of_o thy_o heart_n and_o will_v one_o day_n bring_v it_o to_o light_v and_o as_o god_n know_v it_o so_o he_o take_v it_o as_o do_v to_o himself_o jesus_n christ_n be_v a_o fellow_n sufferer_n with_o his_o people_n in_o all_o their_o wrong_n in_o all_o their_o

as_o do_v to_o himself_o woe_n to_o they_o that_o wrong_v his_o people_n second_o as_o consider_v what_o a_o great_a sin_n it_o be_v so_o consider_v what_o shame_n will_v follow_v when_o god_n clear_v the_o innocency_n of_o his_o servant_n what_o a_o shame_n it_o will_v be_v for_o people_n to_o say_v now_o we_o see_v such_o and_o such_o be_v liar_n slanderer_n backbiter_n and_o who_o will_v trust_v they_o three_o consider_v god_n will_v never_o put_v it_o up_o at_o your_o hand_n your_o false_a accuse_v of_o his_o people_n psa_n 101.5_o he_o that_o privy_o slander_v his_o neighbour_n will_v i_o destroy_v god_n will_v be_v even_o with_o they_o if_o they_o seek_v to_o destroy_v their_o neighbour_n and_o god_n he_o will_v destroy_v they_o but_o may_v some_o say_v ay_o but_o sometime_o we_o may_v speak_v the_o truth_n as_o well_o as_o slander_v they_o and_o what_o then_o shall_v we_o hold_v our_o peace_n i_o answer_v first_o it_o be_v a_o great_a sin_n to_o accuse_v false_o and_o as_o it_o be_v a_o great_a sin_n to_o accuse_v false_o so_o in_o some_o respect_n it_o be_v a_o great_a sin_n to_o speak_v evil_a of_o they_o though_o the_o thing_n be_v true_a they_o speak_v of_o as_o in_o case_n the_o party_n they_o speak_v of_o be_v absent_a and_o yet_o they_o will_v speak_v evil_a of_o a_o man_n this_o be_v though_o the_o thing_n be_v true_a backbiting_a and_o see_v what_o shall_v become_v of_o such_o psal_n 140.11_o the_o backbiter_n shall_v not_o be_v establish_v upon_o the_o earth_n such_o a_o one_o may_v think_v to_o get_v up_o by_o his_o neighbour_n ruin_n but_o it_o will_v not_o do_v god_n have_v threaten_v he_o shall_v not_o be_v establish_v upon_o the_o earth_n second_o in_o case_n though_o the_o thing_n be_v true_a yet_o if_o the_o party_n have_v be_v deep_o humble_v for_o it_o judge_v themselves_o for_o it_o lie_v upon_o the_o rack_n plead_v for_o mercy_n and_o groan_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o it_o and_o be_v leave_v in_o a_o wilderness_n of_o

afflict_a as_o psal_n 69.26_o they_o do_v persecute_v he_o who_o thou_o have_v smite_v and_o add_v sorrow_n to_o he_o who_o thou_o have_v wound_v at_o such_o a_o time_n to_o speak_v to_o the_o

a_o warning_n to_o i_o for_o ever_o to_o watch_v against_o that_o sin_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v i_o will_v pray_v more_o against_o that_o particular_a sin_n than_o i_o have_v do_v and_o watch_v more_o against_o that_o sin_n than_o i_o have_v do_v through_o god_n help_v they_o shall_v never_o have_v occasion_n to_o rejoice_v over_o i_o in_o that_o kind_n true_o i_o very_o believe_v many_o a_o child_n of_o god_n can_v say_v by_o experience_n i_o shall_v never_o have_v pray_v and_o watch_v against_o such_o a_o sin_n so_o much_o have_v not_o god_n use_v the_o tongue_n of_o the_o wicked_a as_o prevent_a physic_n i_o know_v not_o my_o own_o heart_n but_o that_o i_o may_v have_v fall_v into_o such_o and_o such_o a_o fin_n have_v not_o god_n by_o this_o mean_v hedge_v up_o my_o way_n with_o thorn_n and_o this_o be_v a_o three_o good_a come_v of_o it_o four_o god_n do_v by_o this_o mean_n exercise_v the_o grace_n in_o his_o people_n by_o let_v they_o undergo_v bad_a report_n as_o well_o as_o good_a report_n he_o try_v whether_o they_o will_v cleave_v close_o to_o he_o in_o all_o condition_n as_o psal_n 44.15_o 16_o 17._o confusion_n be_v daily_o before_o i_o shame_n have_v cover_v

covenant_n five_o god_n do_v by_o this_o mean_n teach_v they_o how_o to_o judge_v of_o other_o when_o they_o be_v false_o accuse_v for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v they_o will_v not_o receive_v a_o false_a report_n against_o their_o neighbour_n they_o will_v know_v the_o truth_n of_o a_o thing_n before_o they_o believe_v it_o and_o they_o know_v how_o to_o comfort_v other_o in_o the_o like_a condition_n and_o thus_o god_n dispose_v of_o it_o for_o good_a and_o thus_o god_n make_v the_o wicked_a the_o servant_n of_o his_o people_n in_o that_o very_a thing_n which_o the_o wicked_a think_v to_o wrong_v they_o most_o in_o for_o he_o use_v the_o wicked_a as_o the_o rod_n and_o wisp_n to_o scour_v off_o the_o rust_n of_o their_o grace_n and_o to_o correct_v their_o security_n and_o when_o the_o rod_n have_v do_v its_o office_n than_o it_o be_v throw_v into_o the_o fire_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o god_n dispose_v of_o the_o wicked_n false_a accusation_n of_o his_o people_n for_o good_a 1_o use_v it_o than_o inform_v we_o that_o it_o be_v no_o new_a thing_n for_o the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o be_v false_o accuse_v it_o be_v the_o device_n of_o the_o devil_n long_o ago_o to_o accuse_v false_o as_o soon_o as_o there_o be_v a_o world_n and_o man_n be_v create_v and_o place_v in_o paradise_n he_o accuse_v god_n to_o man_n by_o possess_v our_o first_o parent_n that_o god_n have_v not_o deal_v well_o with_o they_o in_o deny_v they_o to_o cate_z of_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a and_o true_o the_o devil_n have_v not_o live_v five_o thousand_o and_o odd_a hundred_o year_n for_o nothing_o but_o the_o same_o devil_n that_o at_o first_o accuse_v god_n to_o man_n can_v do_v so_o still_o and_o if_o he_o will_v accuse_v god_n false_o no_o marvel_n if_o he_o teach_v his_o scholar_n to_o accuse_v god_n people_n false_o we_o find_v it_o be_v david_n portion_n christ_n portion_n the_o apostle_n portion_n and_o what_o do_v you_o think_v as_o the_o devil_n grow_v old_a he_o grow_v childish_a and_o forget_v how_o to_o teach_v his_o scholar_n the_o same_o lesson_n now_o he_o do_v a_o great_a while_n ago_o no_o sure_o as_o false_a

so_o as_o if_o some_o strange_a thing_n happen_v to_o they_o 2._o use_v it_o inform_v we_o what_o desperate_a wickedness_n and_o malice_n be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o wicked_a people_n against_o the_o

that_o you_o give_v not_o the_o wicked_a just_a occasion_n to_o rejoice_v by_o not_o walk_v as_o child_n of_o the_o light_n for_o if_o they_o watch_v for_o occasion_n and_o will_v false_o accuse_v without_o a_o cause_n what_o will_v they_o do_v if_o they_o have_v a_o cause_n see_v they_o wait_v for_o a_o opportunity_n how_o do_v it_o behoove_v god_n people_n to_o walk_v exact_o as_o goll_n
