from_o our_o father_n adam_n as_o it_o be_v by_o inheritance_n the_o manner_n therefore_o that_o we_o be_v of_o jesus_n christ_n flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o his_o bone_n be_v that_o we_o be_v graff_v into_o his_o body_n according_o as_o saint_n paul_n also_o use_v the_o same_o similitude_n of_o graff_v 6._o like_a as_o a_o sine_fw-la that_o be_v set_v into_o a_o stock_n take_v his_o sustenance_n from_o the_o same_o so_o must_v we_o by_o be_v graff_v into_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n trew_n it_o be_v that_o we_o do_v not_o yet_o bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n of_o ourselves_o for_o his_o purpose_n here_o be_v but_o too_o show_v that_o as_o a_o branch_n wither_v which_o be_v break_v of_o from_o the_o root_n and_o so_o let_v alone_o but_o receive_v sap_n and_o nourishment_n from_o the_o root_n if_o it_o be_v graff_v into_o another_o even_o so_o be_v it_o with_o we_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n that_o if_o we_o continue_v such_o as_o we_o be_v by_o kind_n then_o be_v we_o in_o death_n because_o we_o be_v separate_v from_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o if_o we_o be_v incorporate_v into_o he_o and_o it_o please_v he_o too_o communicate_v himself_o unto_o we_o then_o do_v we_o feel_v in_o very_a deed_n that_o bread_n do_v not_o more_o nourish_v we_o when_o we_o eat_v it_o nor_o wine_n strengthen_v we_o better_v when_o we_o drink_v it_o than_o we_o very_o receive_v life_n and_o strength_n by_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n now_o then_o that_o this_o be_v a_o high_a mystery_n every_o man_n be_v able_a to_o judge_v of_o himself_o when_o we_o have_v debate_v never_o so_o much_o and_o scan_v the_o matter_n in_o our_o heart_n be_v there_o any_o of_o we_o that_o can_v comprehend_v how_o we_o be_v knit_v too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o how_o we_o be_v make_v all_o one_o with_o he_o so_o as_o we_o can_v assure_v and_o warrant_v ourselves_o that_o we_o shall_v by_o that_o mean_a be_v partaker_n of_o god_n glory_n and_o that_o even_o at_o this_o day_n we_o live_v in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n according_a too_o this_o say_n of_o he_o 19_o be_v of_o good_a cheer_n for_o as_o i_o live_v so_o shall_v you_o also_o can_v this_o say_v i_o enter_v into_o so_o small_a a_o room_n as_o our_o sensual_a reason_n be_v no_o sure_o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o a_o number_n of_o man_n can_v admit_v this_o point_n that_o we_o be_v the_o flesh_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o bone_n of_o his_o bone_n but_o content_v themselves_o with_o their_o own_o imagination_n which_o be_v a_o abace_n of_o god_n grace_n which_o saint_n paul_n be_v not_o able_a too_o express_v but_o rather_o show_v we_o that_o it_o ought_v too_o ravish_v our_o wit_n too_o wonder_v at_o it_o many_o then_o may_v happen_v too_o have_v a_o rove_a and_o as_o it_o be_v a_o heathenish_a imagination_n that_o we_o be_v knit_v unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v too_o say_v that_o we_o be_v save_v by_o his_o grace_n but_o the_o scripture_n go_v further_a and_o though_o there_o be_v no_o more_o but_o this_o say_n that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n yet_o let_v we_o beware_v of_o limit_v it_o after_o our_o own_o fancy_n for_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o we_o will_v make_v saint_n paul_n a_o liar_n all_o such_o as_o despise_v this_o spiritual_a conjunction_n which_o we_o have_v with_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n will_v show_v that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o secret_a nor_o wonderful_a power_n of_o god_n nor_o aught_o else_o as_o we_o hear_v speak_v of_o here_o and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n use_v such_o speech_n too_o humble_v we_o and_o afterward_o ●oo_o exalt_v we_o again_o therefore_o we_o must_v on_o the_o one_o side_n confess_v that_o all_o the_o wisdom_n and_o wit_n which_o we_o have_v do_v fail_v we_o in_o that_o behalf_n and_o afterward_o rise_v up_o again_o for_o that_o we_o hear_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n call_v we_o too_o he_o and_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o be_v so_o knit_v unto_o he_o that_o he_o have_v not_o any_o thing_n of_o his_o own_o which_o he_o make_v not_o common_a too_o we_o and_o whereof_o he_o will_v not_o have_v we_o too_o be_v partaker_n therefore_o if_o we_o have_v any_o contrary_a motion_n in_o ourselves_o and_o it_o come_v into_o our_o head_n too_o say_v how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v in_o heaven_n shall_v nourish_v we_o with_o his_o own_o substance_n so_o as_o his_o body_n shall_v be_v our_o meat_n and_o his_o blood_n our_o drink_n i_o say_v if_o we_o fall_v into_o such_o fancy_n we_o must_v repulse_v they_o all_o with_o that_o which_o be_v say_v here_o namely_o that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a secret_n and_o we_o must_v rebuke_v our_o own_o folly_n and_o rashness_n in_o intend_v too_o measure_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v infinite_a our_o lord_n show_v we_o that_o when_o he_o have_v knit_v we_o too_o his_o only_a son_n he_o have_v do_v so_o high_a and_o profound_a a_o work_n as_o surmount_v all_o our_o capacity_n see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o always_o conclude_v that_o although_o we_o find_v it_o a_o strange_a matter_n yet_o must_v we_o rest_v upon_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v speak_v by_o god_n himself_o special_o when_o he_o say_v that_o he_o will_v work_v after_o so_o high_a a_o fashion_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v utter_o ravish_v at_o it_o wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v general_o upon_o this_o text_n that_o all_o the_o benefit_n which_o we_o receive_v by_o the_o mean_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n thereby_o too_o attain_v too_o the_o heavenly_a life_n be_v and_o do_v proceed_v of_o the_o fayed_a fountain_n of_o god_n incomprehensible_a wisdom_n so_o as_o it_o be_v not_o for_o we_o too_o be_v so_o foolish_a and_o presumptuous_a as_o too_o say_v i_o will_v know_v what_o it_o be_v and_o again_o i_o will_v see_v what_o please_v i_o let_v we_o restrain_v ourselves_o from_o such_o presumption_n for_o it_o will_v make_v we_o unworthy_a of_o the_o mystery_n of_o faith_n because_o it_o be_v a_o say_n that_o import_v a_o great_a secret_a the_o end_n say_v i_o whereat_o we_o must_v begin_v if_o we_o mind_n too_o fare_v the_o better_a by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o too_o be_v partaker_n of_o all_o his_o grace_n be_v too_o understand_v that_o god_n work_v in_o our_o salvation_n be_v a_o great_a mystery_n or_o secret_a according_a too_o the_o text_n that_o i_o allege_v heretofore_o out_o of_o the_o epistle_n too_o timothy_n it_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n say_v saint_n paul_n that_o god_n be_v manifest_v in_o the_o flesh_n 16._o for_o what_o a_o great_a distance_n be_v there_o between_o god_n and_o man_n we_o be_v but_o worm_n and_o rottenness_n and_o god_n majesty_n be_v so_o high_a as_o no_o man_n can_v say_v what_o it_o be_v nor_o conceive_v the_o hundred_o part_n of_o it_o in_o thought_n but_o we_o must_v be_v fain_o too_o be_v ravish_v too_o wonder_n at_o it_o see_v then_o that_o god_n have_v so_o link_v himself_o unto_o we_o that_o he_o be_v the_o true_a emanuel_n as_o he_o be_v name_v in_o isaiah_n 14._o and_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o seem_v to_o be_v so_o far_o asunder_o be_v knit_v together_o in_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n let_v we_o conclude_v thereupon_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o mystery_n and_o secret_n in_o all_o the_o grace_n which_o we_o receive_v of_o our_o god_n and_o special_o in_o our_o incorporate_n or_o graft_n into_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o and_o clothe_v himself_o with_o our_o flesh_n will_v have_v we_o too_o be_v graff_v into_o he_o as_o into_o our_o root_n too_o be_v quicken_v by_o his_o spirit_n and_o too_o be_v partaker_n of_o his_o life_n so_o as_o he_o have_v nothing_o peculiar_a too_o himself_o alone_o but_o will_v have_v all_o to_o be_v common_a unto_o we_o will_v we_o then_o receive_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n with_o all_o the_o benefit_n which_o he_o bring_v we_o and_o will_v we_o by_o his_o mean_n overcome_v all_o the_o temptation_n that_o can_v cross_v we_o we_o must_v taste_v thorough_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n tell_v we_o and_o set_v afore_o we_o and_o give_v such_o reverend_a credit_n unto_o they_o by_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n work_v in_o we_o by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o the_o same_o may_v content_v we_o and_o make_v we_o too_o forsake_v all_o our_o own_o natural_a understanding_n now_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o majesty_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o sin_n pray_v he_o too_o vouchsafe_v too_o pardon_v we_o in_o such_o wise_n as_o we_o may_v
god_n law_n have_v not_o yet_o sift_v he_o thorough_o 9_o but_o when_o i_o once_o enter_v into_o myself_o say_v he_o and_o know_v what_o it_o be_v too_o lust_n then_o do_v god_n law_n wound_v i_o too_o death_n and_o i_o perceive_v that_o the_o life_n which_o i_o have_v live_v afore_o be_v but_o death_n and_o that_o i_o have_v make_v my_o self_n too_o believe_v wonder_n take_v myself_o too_o be_v that_o which_o i_o be_v not_o as_o fool_n do_v which_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v king_n and_o prince_n when_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n louse_n eat_v they_o up_o or_o else_o they_o starve_v for_o hunger_n and_o cold_a so_o then_o saint_n paul_n confess_v that_o before_o he_o be_v convert_v he_o be_v alive_a too_o his_o own_o seem_n and_o he_o triumph_v at_o it_o but_o when_o christ_n have_v once_o humble_v he_o and_o make_v he_o feel_v what_o god_n judgement_n be_v than_o he_o give_v over_o that_o life_n and_o see_v well_o that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o death_n likewise_o he_o say_v now_o that_o although_o we_o be_v alive_a in_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o world_n so_o as_o man_n clap_v their_o hand_n at_o we_o and_o magnify_v our_o virtue_n and_o that_o we_o ourselves_o also_o be_v besot_v with_o the_o same_o opinion_n it_o be_v nothing_o at_o all_o but_o we_o must_v go_v unto_o god_n now_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o god_n have_v a_o special_a life_n which_o he_o reserve_v and_o keep_v as_o lay_v up_o in_o secret_a for_o his_o child_n for_o albeit_o that_o he_o make_v his_o daysonne_n too_o shine_v both_o upon_o good_a and_o bad_a and_o show_v himself_o liberal_a towards_o all_o without_o exception_n yet_o do_v he_o not_o scatter_v abroad_o the_o thing_n that_o serve_v for_o his_o choose_v according_a too_o this_o say_n of_o this_o psalm_n 21_o lord_n how_o great_a be_v thy_o goodness_n which_o thou_o have_v lay_v up_o in_o store_n for_o they_o that_o fear_v thou_o it_o be_v as_o a_o treasure_n that_o thou_o have_v hoard_a up_o for_o they_o so_o than_o whereas_o saint_n paul_n speak_v here_o of_o god_n life_n he_o show_v that_o in_o live_a according_a too_o our_o nature_n we_o have_v not_o our_o life_n of_o he_o whence_o then_o be_v it_o not_o god_n that_o have_v create_v we_o be_v it_o not_o he_o of_o who_o we_o have_v our_o be_v and_o move_v as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o seventeen_o of_o the_o act_n then_o be_v our_o common_a life_n of_o god_n in_fw-la asmuch_o as_o he_o be_v our_o maker_n but_o in_o asmuch_o as_o he_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o the_o choose_v and_o in_o asmuch_o as_o he_o be_v the_o father_n of_o his_o child_n who_o he_o have_v adopt_v this_o life_n which_o be_v common_a both_o too_o good_a and_o bad_a be_v not_o name_v god_n life_n but_o man_n life_n god_n let_v it_o alone_o in_o his_o plight_n and_o which_o then_o be_v god_n life_n it_o be_v when_o upon_o his_o choose_v of_o we_o he_o show_v we_o the_o way_n of_o life_n and_o salvation_n and_o renew_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n so_o as_o jesus_n christ_n dwell_v in_o we_o by_o faith_n as_o we_o have_v see_v afore_o and_o utter_v his_o power_n in_o we_o cause_v our_o old_a man_n to_o be_v crucify_v with_o he_o yea_o &_o even_o bury_v too_o that_o we_o may_v be_v raze_v again_o even_o too_o be_v separate_v from_o all_o uncleanness_n of_o the_o world_n that_o we_o may_v not_o resemble_v the_o unbeliever_n who_o be_v whole_o prisoner_n under_o the_o tyranny_n of_o satan_n and_o be_v drive_v and_o hale_v by_o he_o and_o give_v over_o themselves_o too_o all_o evil_a that_o be_v in_o effect_n the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n have_v speak_v too_o we_o here_o of_o god_n life_n and_o now_o that_o we_o may_v the_o beteer_n be_v waken_v and_o receive_v this_o exhortation_n unfeigned_o let_v we_o not_o deceive_v ourselves_o any_o more_o with_o the_o opinion_n that_o every_o of_o we_o may_v conceive_v in_o our_o own_o head_n nor_o yet_o with_o the_o judgement_n of_o man_n which_o oftimes_o do_v praise_n and_o commend_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v nothing_o worth_a very_o we_o know_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v in_o saint_n luke_n 15._o that_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v high_a and_o excellent_a afore_o man_n be_v utter_o loathsome_a before_o god_n too_o the_o intent_n therefore_o that_o we_o may_v no_o more_o be_v deceive_v by_o they_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o until_o god_n have_v make_v we_o new_a creature_n and_o beget_v we_o again_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n we_o be_v blind_a in_o our_o understanding_n we_o have_v nothing_o in_o we_o but_o vanity_n and_o we_o be_v utter_o ignorant_a yea_o and_o stark_a beast_n that_o be_v in_o effect_n the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v too_o bear_v in_o mind_n wherefore_o as_o oft_o as_o we_o fall_v too_o our_o accustom_a byase_n and_o follow_v our_o own_o fancy_n let_v we_o learn_v too_o city_v ourselves_o before_o god_n and_o too_o weigh_v well_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o life_n that_o he_o reserve_v as_o peculiar_a too_o himself_o not_o that_o it_o serve_v for_o none_o other_o but_o himself_o but_o because_o he_o bestow_v it_o upon_o none_o but_o his_o own_o child_n for_o thereby_o it_o be_v that_o he_o show_v himself_o to_o have_v choose_v we_o as_o we_o have_v see_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n now_o heerupon_o he_o set_v down_o immediate_o the_o hardness_n of_o their_o heart_n not_o a_o single_a hardness_n after_o the_o manner_n as_o we_o take_v hardness_n for_o the_o greek_a word_n betoken_v a_o thickenednesse_n or_o muddiness_n as_o when_o a_o piece_n of_o wine_n that_o be_v very_o well_o fyne_v be_v so_o trouble_v as_o it_o become_v all_o lees_n and_o grow_v thick_a and_o muddy_a like_o a_o puddle_n so_o as_o there_o be_v no_o more_o clear_a liquor_n in_o it_o even_o so_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o the_o heart_n be_v thicken_v when_o it_o be_v so_o blind_a and_o harden_v by_o that_o mean_a as_o it_o can_v yield_v too_o the_o obey_n of_o god_n and_o that_o then_o there_o be_v no_o clearness_n in_o it_o but_o all_o be_v trouble_v like_o a_o puddle_n and_o this_o word_n heart_n do_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n betoken_v now_o and_o then_o all_o the_o lust_n like_n and_o will_v of_o man_n and_o sometime_o also_o his_o understanding_n but_o for_o asmuch_o as_o here_o saint_n paul_n have_v put_v a_o difference_n between_o a_o man_n understanding_n and_o his_o mind_n and_o his_o heart_n we_o may_v well_o think_v that_o he_o mean_v too_o add_v the_o will_n together_o with_o all_o the_o scanning_n and_o debate_n which_o we_o make_v in_o ourselves_o about_o the_o judge_a of_o good_a and_o evil_n and_o final_o the_o whole_a understanding_n which_o we_o have_v and_o the_o reason_n that_o reign_v in_o we_o saint_n paul_n therefore_o mean_v in_o effect_n too_o show_v that_o man_n be_v so_o corrupt_v in_o all_o part_n of_o he_o through_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n as_o there_o be_v neither_o wit_n nor_o will_n but_o it_o tend_v whole_o unto_o evil_n and_o be_v utter_o sape_v in_o it_o and_o therefore_o like_a as_o erst_o he_o condemn_v the_o beastliness_n that_o be_v in_o we_o so_o now_o also_o he_o show_v that_o we●_z be_v as_o block_n and_o can_v be_v quiet_a too_o follow_v our_o god_n whither_o soever_o he_o call_v we_o but_o that_o we_o be_v stubborn_a and_o have_v stiff_a neck_n which_o can_v bow_v as_o moses_n also_o upbraid_v those_o that_o rebel_v against_o god_n tell_v they_o that_o they_o have_v a_o neck_n of_o iron_n or_o brass_n and_o even_o such_o be_v we_o too_o of_o nature_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n be_v it_o say_v in_o ezechiell_n 26._o that_o god_n will_v change_v the_o heart_n of_o they_o who_o he_o will_v have_v save_v so_o that_o whereas_o they_o be_v stony_a before_o he_o will_v make_v they_o fleshy_a this_o similitude_n show_v well_o what_o be_v in_o we_o till_o god_n have_v wrought_v a_o alteration_n in_o we_o for_o we_o have_v nothing_o but_o hardness_n which_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v say_v that_o we_o be_v
