two_o thing_n in_o they_o first_o a_o manifestation_n of_o the_o relation_n that_o there_o be_v betwixt_o christ_n the_o disciple_n and_o lazarus_n mark_n he_o do_v not_o say_v lazarus_n my_o friend_n but_o lazarus_n our_o friend_n sleep_v from_z hence_o we_o may_v observe_v by_o the_o way_n doct._n that_o those_o who_o be_v friend_n to_o christ_n be_v friend_n also_o to_o his_o people_n lazarus_n be_v christ_n friend_n therefore_o christ_n tell_v his_o disciple_n that_o he_o be_v their_o friend_n lazarus_n our_o friend_n sleep_v and_o then_o if_o only_o those_o which_o be_v friend_n to_o christ_n be_v friend_n to_o his_o people_n than_o those_o which_o be_v not_o friend_n to_o the_o people_n of_o christ_n will_v never_o prove_v themselves_o friend_n to_o jesus_n christ_n there_o be_v a_o reciprocal_a respect_n in_o the_o relation_n to_o love_n christ_n be_v to_o love_v his_o people_n and_o to_o love_v the_o people_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o love_n christ_n because_o christ_n and_o his_o people_n be_v one_o 2._o the_o second_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n be_v this_o namely_o the_o qualification_n of_o the_o person_n speak_v of_o that_o be_v understand_v though_o not_o express_v namely_o that_o he_o be_v a_o good_a man_n for_o he_o be_v the_o friend_n of_o christ_n lazarus_n our_o friend_n be_v dead_a from_o hence_o also_o we_o may_v observe_v by_o the_o way_n doct._n that_o none_o but_o godly_a gracious_a man_n be_v indeed_o the_o friend_n of_o christ_n christ_n have_v many_o pretend_a friend_n in_o the_o world_n but_o for_o his_o real_a friend_n we_o may_v say_v of_o they_o in_o our_o day_n as_o solomon_n speak_v of_o a_o virtuous_a woman_n in_o his_o day_n one_o of_o a_o thousand_o of_o such_o can_v we_o not_o find_v many_o that_o will_v serve_v christ_n so_o long_o as_o they_o may_v serve_v themselves_o in_o serve_v of_o he_o but_o when_o a_o impoverish_v christ_n come_v to_o live_v upon_o they_o they_o will_v quick_o give_v he_o cause_n to_o say_v that_o such_o friend_n be_v never_o true_a to_o they_o that_o trust_v they_o and_o as_o for_o ungodly_a man_n they_o be_v not_o friend_n but_o enemy_n to_o jesus_n christ_n they_o be_v enemy_n to_o his_o person_n to_o his_o office_n to_o his_o law_n to_o his_o gospel_n to_o his_o minister_n to_o his_o people_n col._n 1._o 21._o you_o that_o be_v sometime_o alienate_v and_o enemy_n in_o your_o mind_n by_o wicked_a work_n it_o be_v only_o the_o godly_a and_o gracious_a which_o be_v the_o real_a friend_n of_o christ_n where_o there_o be_v no_o reconciliation_n there_o can_v be_v no_o friendship_n now_o it_o be_v only_a grace_n which_o can_v reconcile_v the_o heart_n to_o christ_n and_o none_o but_o godly_a man_n have_v true_a grace_n therefore_o none_o but_o such_o can_v be_v real_a friend_n to_o christ_n abraham_n be_v a_o godly_a man_n therefore_o call_v the_o friend_n of_o god_n and_o moses_n be_v a_o godly_a man_n and_o it_o be_v say_v that_o
