that_o inasmuch_o as_o we_o be_v banish_v out_o of_o god_n kingdom_n we_o be_v cut_v of_o from_o all_o hope_n of_o salvation_n so_o as_o the_o angel_n be_v by_o and_o by_o fain_a too_o become_v our_o

here_o you_o see_v also_o why_o that_o in_o the_o ladder_n that_o be_v show_v unto_o jacob_n 12._o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n stand_v upon_o the_o top_n of_o it_o and_o touch_v both_o heaven_n and_o

and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o we_o do_v not_o yet_o perceive_v such_o fullness_n of_o god_n grace_n as_o be_v to_o be_v wish_v therefore_o s._n paul_n send_v we_o to_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n

his_o ryze_a again_o he_o attain_v such_o superiority_n that_o all_o the_o world_n be_v govern_v by_o he_o and_o he_o be_v now_o set_v down_o at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n his_o father_n to_o

and_o all_o our_o enemy_n now_o than_o we_o see_v s._n paul_n meaning_n that_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o may_v be_v cast_v down_o and_o our_o faith_n at_o least_o wise_a sore_o shake_v if_o we_o shall_v look_v no_o further_o than_o too_o ourselves_o therefore_o he_o set_v jesus_n christ_n before_o we_o as_o the_o true_a pattern_n wherein_o we_o may_v see_v the_o thing_n that_o as_o yet_o be_v unseen_a in_o ourselves_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n god_n inestimable_a power_n which_o surmount_v the_o whole_a world_n for_o first_o he_o be_v raze_v from_o death_n and_o second_o he_o be_v set_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o his_o father_n now_o the_o speak_n of_o god_n right_a hand_n be_v a_o resemblance_n take_v of_o man_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o god_n have_v neither_o right_a hand_n nor_o

whereas_o we_o be_v by_o nature_n damn_v he_o have_v vouchsafe_v too_o have_v we_o too_o be_v his_o child_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o be_v so_o overween_a as_o too_o think_v that_o we_o

for_o the_o last_o step_n we_o must_v come_v too_o the_o experience_n that_o we_o have_v in_o these_o day_n for_o the_o blood_n of_o martyr_n be_v shed_v still_o at_o this_o day_n &_o god_n can_v

saint_n paul_n too_o redress_v it_o say_v that_o we_o have_v our_o wash_n warrant_v in_o baptim_n under_o the_o figure_n of_o water_n yea_o but_o yet_o must_v we_o have_v a_o eye_n too_o the_o word_n

and_o think_v that_o the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o baptism_n be_v inclose_v in_o those_o word_n it_o be_v a_o abuse_n and_o true_o it_o can_v not_o serve_v we_o but_o for_o a_o charm_n and_o

the_o papist_n be_v destitute_a of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o sacrament_n through_o their_o own_o misbeleef_n because_o they_o have_v rob_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n of_o his_o power_n and_o

think_v themselves_o too_o have_v the_o sacrament_n still_o but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o without_o the_o word_n as_o for_o example_n in_o deed_n in_o baptyze_a they_o mumble_v enough_o and_o they_o

forasmuch_o as_o god_n have_v shut_v he_o up_o it_o have_v be_v enough_o as_o a_o man_n will_v have_v judge_v in_o common_a opinion_n that_o he_o swerve_v not_o a_o side_n even_o too_o the_o death_n but_o he_o content_v not_o himself_o with_o his_o only_a be_v of_o a_o faithful_a witness_n and_o martyr_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o he_o think_v therewithal_o that_o it_o become_v he_o

by_o example_n now_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o serve_v god_n in_o such_o wise_n even_o too_o the_o last_o gasp_n of_o our_o life_n as_o we_o may_v have_v a_o care_n of_o our_o neighbour_n also_o and_o procure_v their_o welare_v as_o much_o as_o we_o can_v accordingly_z as_z god_n have_v bind_v we_o thereunto_o and_o to_o the_o intent_n that_o tychicus_n shall_v be_v receive_v he_o call_v he_o

uttermost_a of_o our_o power_n that_o such_o as_o can_v serve_v the_o church_n may_v be_v advance_v and_o man_n know_v what_o they_o be_v and_o that_o they_o may_v have_v as_o it_o be_v their_o mark_n so_o as_o they_o may_v have_v authority_n as_o be_v requisite_a that_o be_v the_o example_n which_o saint_n paul_n show_v we_o for_o it_o be_v not_o for_o any_o vainglory_n or_o favour_n of_o man_n that_o he_o commend_v tychicus_n after_o that_o manner_n but_o his_o desire_n be_v that_o man_n shall_v know_v christ_n faithful_a minister_n too_o their_o own_o benefit_n so_o as_o he_o may_v have_v

epistle_n withal_o saint_n paul_n pray_v that_o the_o brethren_n may_v have_v peace_n love_n and_o faith_n from_o god_n and_o from_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n now_o this_o word_n peace_n be_v common_o take_v in_o saint_n paul_n for_o all_o welfare_n and_o prosperity_n in_o deed_n it_o signify_v proper_o concord_n but_o the_o apostle_n be_v accustom_v too_o the_o hebrew_n tongue_n have_v use_v the_o word_n that_o import_v both_o and_o when_o saint_n paul_n say_v grace_n and_o peace_n be_v give_v unto_o you_o by_o the_o first_o he_o wish_v god_n favour_n and_o mercy_n and_o by_o the_o
