this_o holy_a spirit_n of_o god_n by_o who_o you_o be_v seal_v unto_o the_o day_n of_o redemption_n by_o your_o corrupt_a communication_n proceed_v out_o of_o your_o mouth_n and_o see_v he_o will_v be_v content_a to_o tarry_v with_o you_o and_o make_v his_o abode_n in_o your_o house_n let_v all_o bitterness_n and_o anger_n and_o wrath_n and_o evil_a speak_n be_v put_v far_o away_o from_o you_o with_o all_o wickedness_n for_o sure_o if_o these_o thing_n be_v among_o we_o he_o will_v depart_v from_o we_o and_o then_o he_o leave_v we_o to_o our_o own_o will_n this_o can_v not_o be_v but_o a_o great_a grief_n of_o mind_n for_o if_o our_o friend_n shall_v go_v away_o from_o we_o by_o our_o uncourteous_a deal_n and_o use_v of_o he_o we_o will_v be_v sorry_a much_o more_o shall_v we_o be_v sorry_a when_o such_o a_o friend_n depart_v and_o leave_v our_o company_n because_o we_o be_v give_v to_o vice_n and_o naughtiness_n who_o presence_n be_v all_o joy_n and_o who_o absence_n from_o we_o be_v extreme_a misery_n and_o cursednesse_n wherefore_o as_o this_o spirit_n be_v obtain_v by_o the_o mean_n of_o prayer_n so_o be_v he_o keep_v and_o preserve_v with_o we_o by_o earnest_a prayer_n and_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n and_o other_o such_o godly_a exercise_n of_o the_o christian_n in_o which_o they_o be_v command_v to_o walk_v in_o for_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v in_o all_o goodness_n righteousness_n and_o truth_n approve_v that_o which_o be_v acceptable_a and_o please_a the_o lord_n and_o here_o be_v another_o effect_n worthy_a the_o nothing_o that_o this_o holy_a ghost_n inhabit_v within_o the_o elect_a and_o child_n of_o god_n do_v make_v now_o their_o work_n and_o labour_n to_o be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o which_o before_o his_o come_n unto_o we_o be_v abominable_a &_o unpleasant_a unto_o god_n not_o that_o our_o good_a work_n deserve_v any_o thing_n at_o his_o hand_n but_o because_o we_o be_v ingraff_v unto_o christ_n by_o the_o seal_n of_o his_o spirit_n therefore_o that_o which_o be_v ill_o in_o we_o before_o be_v now_o make_v good_a and_o accept_v as_o if_o it_o be_v perfect_a yea_o through_o this_o spirit_n which_o do_v so_o season_n inward_o our_o action_n that_o they_o be_v like_v of_o god_n we_o become_v thereby_o not_o only_o his_o faithful_a servant_n &_o dear_a friend_n but_z that_o which_o be_v much_o more_o his_o well-beloved_a son_n as_o paul_n show_v unto_o we_o because_o you_o be_v son_n god_n have_v send_v forth_o the_o spirit_n of_o his_o son_n into_o your_o heart_n which_o cry_v father_n father_n wherefore_o thou_o be_v no_o more_o a_o servant_n but_o a_o son_n now_o if_o thou_o be_v a_o son_n thou_o be_v also_o the_o heir_n of_o god_n through_o christ_n if_o this_o be_v so_o that_o we_o be_v make_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o have_v receive_v the_o adoption_n of_o child_n by_o this_o holy_a spirit_n then_o we_o may_v assure_v ourselves_o of_o salvation_n unless_o the_o obedient_a child_n may_v doubt_v of_o the_o good_a will_n of_o his_o love_a father_n here_o then_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o papist_n that_o teach_v man_n to_o doubt_n and_o stand_v in_o fear_n of_o their_o salvation_n for_o be_v not_o this_o a_o very_a absurd_a and_o a_o foolish_a position_n that_o they_o maintain_v that_o we_o may_v call_v god_n father_n and_o yet_o doubt_n whether_o he_o will_v bestow_v the_o inheritance_n of_o child_n upon_o we_o shall_v i_o call_v he_o father_n and_o doubt_v of_o this_o for_o these_o be_v the_o word_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n utter_v by_o s._n paul_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n witness_v with_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n this_o be_v so_o mark_v what_o paul_n infer_v &_o bring_v in_o upon_o this_o point_n if_o we_o be_v child_n we_o be_v also_o heir_n even_o the_o heir_n of_o god_n and_o heir_n annex_v with_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v i_o now_o be_v make_v &_o appoint_v a_o heir_n by_o good_a &_o sufficient_a warrant_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o lie_v not_o nor_o deceyve_v and_o yet_o doubt_v of_o my_o inheritance_n that_o be_v a_o mad_a thing_n can_v the_o servant_n doubt_n whether_o he_o be_v his_o master_n man_n or_o shall_v receyve_v his_o wage_n when_o he_o wear_v his_o master_n coat_n and_o cognisance_n or_o can_v one_o doubt_v of_o the_o writing_n to_o be_v authentical_a and_o good_a that_o have_v the_o party_n hand_n and_o seal_n unto_o it_o or_o may_v a_o man_n doubt_n have_v receive_v earnest_a in_o part_n of_o payment_n but_o that_o he_o shall_v in_o time_n convenient_a have_v the_o whole_a have_v bargain_v with_o a_o hove_v man_n or_o do_v we_o receyve_v the_o witness_n of_o honest_a man_n of_o credit_n never_o in_o matter_n political_a and_o shall_v not_o we_o receyve_v the_o witness_n of_o god_n the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v great_a and_o more_o to_o be_v believe_v of_o we_o when_o he_o promise_v salvation_n to_o the_o believer_n sure_o if_o we_o doubt_v than_o we_o have_v not_o faith_n for_o he_o that_o doubt_v be_v not_o ground_v in_o the_o faith_n but_o be_v like_o a_o wave_n of_o the_o sea_n toss_v of_o the_o wind_n and_o carry_v away_o james_n 1_o how_o can_v i_o have_v hope_n of_o salvation_n as_o i_o be_o command_v and_o yet_o be_v in_o despair_n of_o it_o and_o doubt_v with_o myself_o a_o man_n can_v not_o hope_v for_o that_o whereof_o he_o doubt_v do_v not_o saint_n john_n say_v plain_o we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v translate_v from_o death_n to_o life_n because_o we_o love_v the_o brethren_n he_o say_v not_o we_o doubt_v of_o it_o and_o again_o hereby_o we_o know_v that_o he_o abide_v in_o we_o even_o by_o his_o spirit_n which_o he_o have_v give_v us._n and_o all_o this_o assurance_n come_v to_o pass_v by_o the_o testimony_n and_o witness_n of_o this_o holy_a spirit_n which_o therefore_o be_v call_v the_o seal_n of_o god_n the_o earnest_a penny_n the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n which_o can_v not_o deceyve_v or_o be_v deceive_v and_o here_o i_o can_v not_o but_o marvel_n at_o the_o ignorance_n and_o blindness_n of_o the_o papist_n which_o while_o they_o go_v about_o to_o establish_v this_o doctrine_n of_o error_n they_o impugn_v and_o overthrow_v another_o of_o their_o own_o for_o they_o say_v that_o a_o man_n may_v fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n perfect_o nay_o they_o go_v further_o and_o say_v he_o may_v fulfil_v the_o law_n and_o do_v all_o that_o god_n have_v command_v in_o his_o word_n write_v and_o more_o to_o which_o be_v work_n of_o supererogation_n beside_o which_o he_o have_v not_o command_v and_o so_o in_o deed_n he_o have_v not_o and_o these_o work_v the_o monk_n and_o friar_n do_v bestow_v upon_o their_o friend_n which_o lack_v they_o for_o they_o have_v enough_o for_o themselves_o and_o these_o they_o sell_v to_o other_o which_o be_v the_o overplus_n and_o they_o call_v they_o the_o store_n of_o the_o church_n now_o thus_o stand_v the_o case_n if_o they_o keep_v the_o law_n than_o they_o need_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o god_n will_v give_v they_o the_o reward_n of_o it_o which_o be_v life_n and_o salvation_n and_o why_o then_o do_v they_o doubt_v if_o it_o be_v true_a they_o fulfil_v the_o commandment_n then_o let_v they_o not_o distrust_v of_o their_o wage_n and_o hire_n wherefore_o one_o of_o these_o two_o must_v needs_o follow_v if_o they_o keep_v the_o law_n than_o they_o need_v not_o doubt_v of_o life_n if_o they_o doubt_v of_o salvation_n than_o it_o be_v certain_a they_o keep_v not_o the_o law_n in_o one_o of_o these_o two_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v find_v liar_n by_o their_o own_o confession_n but_o in_o deed_n they_o be_v untrue_a in_o both_o of_o they_o for_o it_o be_v false_a that_o they_o keep_v the_o law_n which_o be_v a_o yoke_n that_o can_v not_o be_v bear_v of_o any_o man_n except_o christ_n see_v it_o be_v spiritual_a &_o bid_v we_o not_o to_o sin_n neither_o in_o deed_n neither_o in_o word_n no_o not_o so_o much_o as_o once_o in_o thought_n matth._n 5._o and_o the_o other_o be_v as_o false_a that_o we_o shall_v doubt_v of_o our_o salvation_n but_o in_o deed_n the_o first_o author_n of_o this_o doctrine_n the_o pope_n himself_o out_o of_o who_o shop_n it_o come_v that_o great_a antichrist_n and_o a_o man_n of_o all_o abomination_n that_o ever_o be_v may_v well_o teach_v this_o doctrine_n and_o doubt_v of_o his_o salvation_n live_v as_o he_o do_v in_o filthy_a fornication_n with_o his_o curtisanes_n and_o harlot_n at_o rome_n stir_v up_o christian_a prince_n to_o war_n one_o with_o another_o to_o maintain_v his_o unsatiable_a ambition_n pride_n &_o covetousness_n with_o all_o manner_n
of_o the_o leviticall_a law_n but_o also_o in_o diverse_a man_n as_o samson_n who_o die_v himself_o to_o deliver_v his_o people_n from_o the_o philistines_n so_o christ_n to_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o devil_n die_v himself_o david_n also_o be_v a_o figure_n of_o he_o in_o many_o thing_n here_o we_o see_v then_o what_o a_o grievous_a thing_n sin_n be_v in_o god_n sight_n that_o he_o can_v be_v pacify_v by_o no_o other_o mean_n then_o by_o the_o blood_n &_o death_n of_o his_o only_a and_o well-beloved_a son_n jesus_n sure_o our_o sin_n be_v as_o hard_o as_o the_o adamant_n stone_n which_o can_v not_o be_v break_v by_o any_o other_o mean_n then_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o true_a goat_n jesus_n christ_n consider_v here_o the_o wonderful_a &_o unspeakable_a love_n of_o christ_n he_o will_v die_v for_o we_o that_o we_o may_v escape_v even_o as_o the_o pelicane_n which_o have_v bring_v forth_o her_o young_a one_o dead_a or_o be_v sting_v &_o kill_v by_o serpent_n she_o peck_v forth_o her_o heart_n blood_n to_o revive_v her_o young_a one_o so_o we_o be_v conceive_v and_o bear_v in_o sin_n and_o altogether_o dead_a in_o our_o trespass_n and_o offence_n ephes_n 2._o sting_v of_o that_o old_a and_o fiery_a serpent_n the_o devil_n which_o first_o beguile_v our_o parent_n in_o paradise_n and_o so_o have_v the_o reward_n of_o sin_n which_o be_v death_n we_o i_o say_v in_o this_o case_n be_v reviue_v and_o quicken_v again_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o that_o true_a pelicane_n jesus_n christ_n which_o he_o from_o his_o heart_n have_v shed_v and_o pour_v out_o for_o us._n thus_o we_o see_v how_o deep_o we_o be_v indebt_v to_o christ_n for_o his_o great_a love_n to_o we_o in_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o yet_o how_o few_o remember_v this_o death_n many_o not_o once_o in_o a_o day_n nay_o not_o once_o in_o a_o week_n or_o month_n i_o fear_v some_o not_o once_o in_o a_o whole_a year_n do_v remember_v it_o well_o they_o be_v the_o more_o unthankeful_a &_o unkind_a son_n to_o god_n so_o good_a a_o father_n &_o christ_n so_o love_v a_o brother_n it_o be_v the_o only_a thing_n that_o shall_v especial_o be_v remember_v although_o all_o other_o thing_n be_v forget_v believe_v i_o dear_a brethren_n christ_n die_v not_o to_o this_o end_n that_o his_o death_n shall_v be_v forget_v which_o be_v so_o cruel_a to_o he_o or_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v light_o remember_v of_o we_o for_o that_o he_o may_v have_v we_o to_o remember_v it_o the_o better_a he_o institute_v his_o last_o supper_n in_o bread_n &_o wine_n the_o bread_n break_v to_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o his_o most_o pure_a &_o precious_a body_n break_v &_o bruise_v for_o our_o sin_n &_o that_o it_o do_v nourish_v we_o as_o the_o bread_n do_v nourish_v our_o body_n for_o his_o flesh_n be_v meat_n in_o

do_v quench_v our_o thirst_n and_o refresh_v we_o &_o comfort_v our_o heart_n be_v soroweful_a so_o do_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n all_o these_o thing_n unto_o we_o in_o great_a measure_n and_o abundance_n this_o do_v also_o teach_v we_o unity_n &_o love_n together_o that_o as_o many_o grape_n make_v but_o one_o wine_n and_o many_o grain_n of_o corn_n &_o wheat_n make_v but_o one_o lofe_z of_o bread_n so_o shall_v we_o be_v but_o one_o in_o christ_n our_o head_n for_o we_o be_v all_o member_n of_o the_o same_o body_n the_o other_o sacrament_n also_o of_o baptism_n do_v put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o christ_n death_n for_o as_o the_o water_n in_o baptism_n do_v wash_v the_o body_n so_o do_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n wash_v our_o soul_n and_o cleanse_v they_o from_o their_o filthiness_n which_o thing_n be_v represent_v unto_o we_o in_o our_o baptism_n a_o sign_n of_o our_o new_a birth_n and_o regeneration_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n therefore_o in_o our_o baptism_n we_o ought_v to_o remember_v this_o death_n for_o we_o be_v bury_v with_o he_o into_o his_o death_n by_o this_o seal_n and_o sacrament_n of_o our_o baptism_n as_o paul_n prove_v rom._n 6._o now_o we_o see_v that_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v remember_v this_o great_a benefit_n of_o christ_n death_n we_o have_v token_n of_o it_o two_o in_o number_n the_o supper_n of_o christ_n and_o baptism_n for_o by_o they_o we_o show_v forth_o the_o lord_n death_n until_o he_o come_v again_o to_o judgement_n 1._o cor._n 11._o now_o if_o any_o man_n marvel_v why_o we_o die_v since_o christ_n have_v die_v for_o we_o &_o taste_v death_n once_o for_o all_o man_n to_o make_v reconciliation_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n &_o to_o satisfy_v god_n justice_n he_o may_v be_v answer_v that_o christ_n have_v take_v away_o the_o second_o death_n of_o the_o soul_n &_o not_o this_o first_o &_o natural_a death_n of_o the_o body_n which_o be_v common_a to_o all_o for_o by_o it_o we_o enter_v into_o life_n and_o although_o it_o be_v sometime_o grievous_a to_o god_n child_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o deadly_a to_o they_o nay_o rather_o joyful_a see_v by_o it_o they_o come_v to_o christ_n their_o head_n as_o it_o be_v to_o paul_n i_o desire_v say_v he_o to_o be_v loose_v and_o to_o be_v with_o christ_n meaning_n to_o die_v for_o albeit_o this_o death_n of_o the_o body_n dwell_v in_o we_o yet_o it_o have_v no_o dominion_n over_o we_o by_o the_o force_n and_o efficacy_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o we_o know_v that_o it_o be_v make_v now_o to_o the_o elect_a a_o gate_n to_o pass_v by_o into_o heaven_n we_o shall_v not_o then_o fear_v death_n see_v that_o the_o loss_n of_o this_o transitory_a life_n be_v the_o high_a way_n into_o god_n everlasting_a kingdom_n and_o this_o may_v be_v answer_v concern_v sin_n also_o if_o any_o man_n ask_v how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o we_o have_v sin_n still_o remain_v in_o we_o see_v christ_n have_v die_v for_o it_o to_o take_v it_o away_o i_o answer_v that_o christ_n have_v take_v away_o the_o condemnation_n of_o sin_n that_o it_o shall_v not_o hurt_v we_o to_o bring_v we_o to_o destruction_n but_o the_o full_a abolish_n of_o sin_n shall_v cease_v in_o the_o latter_a day_n of_o judgement_n when_o all_o thing_n shall_v be_v restore_v again_o to_o their_o perfection_n act_n 5._o so_o that_o now_o we_o may_v say_v there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n of_o sin_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n which_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o spirit_n rom._n 8._o for_o see_v the_o wonderful_a

his_o shame_n our_o glory_n his_o descension_n into_o hell_n be_v make_v our_o ascension_n into_o heaven_n and_o final_o his_o misery_n here_o in_o this_o life_n be_v make_v our_o felicity_n and_o

and_o declare_v the_o wonder_n that_o he_o do_v for_o the_o child_n of_o man_n this_o death_n of_o christ_n have_v two_o benefit_n in_o it_o for_o first_o it_o cause_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o die_v in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v and_o then_o here_o it_o mortify_v our_o earthly_a member_n it_o kill_v our_o old_a man_n adam_n within_o we_o that_o it_o bring_v not_o forth_o his_o accustom_a action_n of_o sin_n within_o us._n thus_o much_o concern_v his_o death_n let_v we_o now_o consider_v brief_o the_o four_o point_n in_o this_o article_n which_o be_v his_o burial_n christ_n be_v bury_v by_o a_o honourable_a counsellor_n joseph_n of_o arimathea_n and_o nicodemus_n a_o ruler_n of_o the_o jew_n who_o beg_v his_o body_n bold_o of_o pilate_n and_o bury_v it_o with_o odour_n as_o the_o manner_n be_v john_n 19_o his_o burial_n be_v mention_v to_o assure_v we_o that_o he_o die_v in_o deed_n as_o when_o we_o see_v a_o man_n bury_v we_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o he_o be_v dead_a the_o lesson_n that_o we_o learn_v by_o this_o burial_n of_o christ_n be_v this_o as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n teach_v we_o rom._n 6._o and_o colos_n 2._o that_o we_o shall_v so_o through_o baptism_n be_v free_v and_o bury_v from_o sin_n as_o he_o be_v bury_v in_o the_o grave_n that_o like_a as_o christ_n be_v raise_v up_o from_o the_o dead_a to_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n so_o we_o also_o shall_v
