great_a husbandman_n bestow_v not_o his_o pain_n alike_o upon_o they_o all_o in_o like_a manner_n the_o church_n of_o god_n as_o a_o sumptuous_a and_o stately_a building_n receive_v and_o entertain_v many_o into_o she_o god_n be_v the_o principal_a and_o commander_n of_o all_o the_o rest_n and_o all_o the_o faithful_a which_o be_v simple_o by_o themselves_o consider_v be_v exceed_v many_o be_v his_o household_n 2.19_o servant_n which_o abide_v and_o live_v in_o she_o and_o be_v all_o maintain_v &_o provide_v for_o by_o the_o lord_n that_o great_a householder_n and_o as_o house_n be_v

the_o faithful_a be_v cunning_o compact_v and_o lay_v together_o of_o god_n as_o it_o be_v by_o line_n &_o level_a do_v make_v for_o the_o stateliness_n and_o glory_n of_o his_o house_n which_o consist_v only_o of_o believer_n and_o as_o all_o the_o part_n of_o a_o field_n the_o variety_n of_o herb_n the_o diversity_n of_o fruit_n and_o the_o comely_a order_n and_o rank_n of_o plant_n do_v

come_v not_o present_o but_o by_o degree_n to_o their_o full_a perfection_n and_o growth_n so_o the_o church_n be_v pe●fited_v by_o degree_n her_o plant_n grow_v up_o by_o little_a and_o little_a and_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n grace_n which_o be_v sow_v in_o our_o heart_n spring_v up_o grow_v and_o multiply_v by_o degree_n and_o not_o all_o at_o once_o the_o flint_n the_o stone_n and_o stink_a

time_n but_o one_o part_n after_o another_o so_o god_n do_v not_o take_v in_o the_o whole_a church_n and_o by_o effectual_a vocation_n sever_v she_o and_o call_v she_o out_o of_o the_o world_n and_o

in_o the_o paradise_n of_o god_n 16.11_o in_o who_o presence_n there_o be_v fullness_n of_o joy_n and_o at_o who_o right_a hand_n be_v pleasure_n for_o evermore_o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o that_o we_o be_v perfect_a in_o this_o life_n in_o two_o respect_n first_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o perfection_n of_o part_n because_o like_o infant_n we_o have_v all_o the_o part_n of_o a_o christian_n god_n
