that_o it_o be_v not_o very_o likely_a that_o god_n will_v still_o persecute_v the_o sin_n of_o adam_n when_o as_o he_o have_v long_o since_o sufficient_o punish_v it_o especial_o see_v nahun_n the_o

that_o when_o a_o man_n be_v beat_v even_o to_o the_o death_n he_o be_v so_o strike_v with_o one_o blow_n that_o he_o need_v not_o the_o second_o stroke_n this_o be_v the_o prophets_n scope_n and_o the_o proper_a sense_n of_o this_o place_n but_o as_o touch_v the_o matter_n we_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o affliction_n in_o godly_a man_n do_v tend_v to_o this_o end_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v condemn_v with_o this_o world_n as_o paul_n say_v for_o they_o be_v fatherly_a chastisemente_n whereby_o god_n call_v they_o back_o to_o repentance_n but_o out_o of_o that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o draw_v a_o general_a rule_n to_o come_v god_n puninish_v many_o of_o the_o ungodlye_a both_o here_o and_o also_o will_v punish_v they_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v ascribe_v unto_o god_n a_o measure_n that_o when_o he_o have_v begin_v to_o punish_v the_o ungodly_a in_o this_o life_n he_o can_v not_o also_o punish_v they_o in_o a_o other_o life_n if_o they_o die_v without_o faith_n and_o repentance_n if_o they_o return_v unto_o god_n they_o shall_v suffer_v nothing_o in_o a_o other_o life_n and_o yet_o not_o because_o they_o have_v in_o this_o life_n with_o their_o punishemente_n make_v satisfaction_n unto_o god_n but_o because_o christ_n have_v thorough_o pay_v the_o price_n of_o redemption_n for_o they_o wherefore_o even_o as_o unto_o the_o godly_a be_v certain_a good_a

there_o be_v nothing_o holy_a or_o just_a but_o that_o which_o god_n have_v command_v the_o beginning_n of_o eternal_a life_n be_v to_o live_v just_o they_z which_o live_v just_o be_v not_o

which_o remain_v in_o we_o be_v sin_n after_o which_o follow_v death_n why_o god_n send_v adversity_n upon_o his_o elect_a in_o infant_n that_o be_v baptize_v and_o yet_o die_v for_o if_o in_o they_o

to_o moderate_v the_o pain_n inflict_v of_o god_n although_o the_o body_n be_v say_v to_o be_v dead_a because_o of_o sin_n yet_o ought_v we_o not_o therefore_o to_o think_v that_o god_n retain_v

for_o paul_n seem_v to_o speak_v against_o that_o sentence_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o 22._o chapter_n of_o matthew_n he_o be_v not_o the_o god_n of_o the_o dead_a but_o of_o the_o live_n for_o if_o he_o be_v not_o the_o god_n of_o yâ_z dead_a how_o be_v he_o here_o say_v to_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o dead_a but_o if_o the_o matter_n be_v more_o narrow_o examine_v there_o be_v not_o herein_o contrariety_n for_o there_o the_o lord_n will_v hereby_o prove_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a for_o that_o god_n can_v not_o be_v true_o the_o god_n of_o abraham_n of_o isaac_n and_o of_o jacob_n unless_o he_o will_v have_v they_o to_o be_v save_v and_o that_o whole_o both_o as_o touch_v soul_n and_o body_n for_o it_o be_v the_o propriety_n of_o god_n to_o save_v thâse_a who_o god_n he_o be_v and_o the_o scripture_n in_o exodus_fw-la pronounce_v that_o god_n be_v the_o god_n of_o those_o patriarch_n wherefore_o they_o live_v and_o shall_v more_o full_o live_v in_o the_o bless_a resurrection_n hereby_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o christ_n speak_v of_o those_o which_o be_v think_v to_o be_v utter_o dead_a both_o in_o soul_n and_o in_o body_n but_o god_n can_v not_o be_v their_o god_n for_o he_o can_v not_o suffer_v such_o a_o death_n to_o prevail_v against_o he_o but_o here_o paul_n say_v that_o christ_n be_v lord_n of_o of_o the_o dead_a which_o be_v dead_a in_o body_n only_o but_o live_v in_o spirit_n and_o when_o time_n come_v shall_v rise_v again_o wherefore_o we_o see_v that_o between_o these_o place_n there_o be_v undoubted_o no_o contrarity_n but_o because_o we_o be_v by_o the_o way_n light_v upon_o those_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n there_o be_v as_o i_o think_v in_o they_o two_o thing_n to_o be_v observe_v first_o that_o although_o of_o they_o be_v proper_o conclude_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o godly_a who_o god_n god_n confess_v himself_o to_o be_v yet_o follow_v it_o that_o of_o the_o self_n same_o word_n may_v be_v conclude_v the_o

let_v we_o first_o mark_n that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o christian_a mind_n to_o geve_v thanks_n unto_o god_n envy_n what_o thing_n be_v most_o contrary_a unto_o envy_n as_o well_o for_o the_o

these_o word_n yet_o i_o can_v not_o therefore_o be_v easy_o persuade_v to_o think_v that_o the_o apostle_n can_v have_v write_v otherwise_o then_o he_o write_v for_o if_o the_o other_o kind_n of_o speech_n shall_v have_v give_v occasion_n of_o haughtiness_n and_o pride_n then_o can_v it_o not_o edeffe_a it_o behove_v he_o also_o to_o follow_v the_o say_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o although_o that_o sentence_n may_v peradventure_o be_v speak_v of_o righteousness_n take_v by_o itself_o yet_o can_v it_o by_o no_o mean_n be_v speak_v of_o we_o &_o of_o our_o righteousness_n wherefore_o see_v that_o sentence_n can_v neither_o edify_v nor_o make_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o purpose_n i_o see_v not_o how_o paul_n can_v so_o have_v write_v howbeit_o in_o this_o matter_n i_o will_v not_o contend_v more_o than_o be_v mete_v with_o augustine_n the_o seven_o chapter_n know_v you_o not_o brother_n for_o i_o speak_v to_o they_o that_o know_v the_o law_n that_o the_o law_n have_v dominion_n over_o a_o man_n so_o long_o as_o he_o live_v for_o the_o woman_n which_o be_v in_o subjection_n unto_o a_o man_n be_v bind_v by_o the_o law_n to_o the_o man_n while_o he_o live_v but_o if_o the_o man_n be_v dead_a she_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o law_n of_o the_o man_n so_o then_o if_o while_o the_o man_n live_v she_o take_v a_o other_o man_n she_o shall_v be_v call_v a_o

and_o this_o exposition_n basilius_n confirm_v in_o a_o epistle_n aâ_n neocaesarienses_n for_o hâ_n say_v that_o the_o apostle_n mind_v in_o this_o place_n to_o commend_v charity_n and_o he_o say_v that_o he_o use_v those_o reason_n not_o that_o all_o those_o thing_n which_o he_o here_o make_v mention_n of_o can_v be_v separate_v from_o charity_n wherefore_o of_o the_o former_a interpretation_n

the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n we_o may_v answer_v with_o the_o self_n same_o solution_n which_o we_o have_v now_o bring_v namely_o yâ_z they_o who_o matthew_n make_v mention_n of_o have_v the_o faith_n of_o sign_n or_o a_o dead_a faith_n but_o not_o a_o true_a and_o justify_v faith_n moreover_o i_o see_v not_o how_o true_a this_o be_v that_o miracle_n can_v not_o be_v do_v without_o faith_n for_o god_n sometime_o work_v miracle_n not_o for_o his_o faith_n sake_n by_o who_o they_o be_v sake_n miracle_n be_v not_o always_o do_v for_o faith_n sake_n do_v but_o either_o to_o illustrate_v

yet_o god_n to_o the_o end_n he_o will_v stand_v to_o his_o promise_n with_o a_o great_a miracle_n give_v water_n unto_o the_o people_n and_o reprove_v moses_n and_o aaron_n of_o infidelity_n and_o

run_v upon_o they_o here_o we_o see_v that_o god_n will_v not_o geve_v a_o miracle_n when_o it_o be_v ask_v as_o it_o be_v most_o likely_a of_o wicked_a and_o unbeleve_a man_n howbeit_o contrariwise_o we_o have_v in_o mark_v the_o 9_o chap._n that_o a_o certain_a man_n do_v cast_v out_o devil_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n who_o yet_o follow_v not_o christ_n and_o when_o john_n will_v have_v

induce_v to_o believe_v and_o that_o these_o ruler_n have_v not_o the_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n hereby_o it_o be_v manifest_a for_o that_o christ_n say_v unto_o they_o how_o can_v you_o believe_v when_o as_o you_o seek_v for_o glory_n at_o man_n hand_n by_o which_o word_n we_o understand_v that_o that_o they_o which_o more_o eastern_a humane_a glory_n than_o piety_n can_v not_o

both_o at_o one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o time_n be_v true_a wherefore_o john_n speak_v of_o a_o humane_a faith_n but_o christ_n of_o the_o sincere_a and_o true_a faith_n which_o true_a faith_n
