but_o must_v be_v aid_v by_o their_o unwritten_a and_o uncertain_a tradition_n but_o sure_o if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o tradition_n hand_v down_o from_o the_o apostle_n through_o the_o several_a age_n of_o the_o church_n to_o this_o present_a age_n these_o tradition_n must_v needs_o pass_v through_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o ancient_a father_n before_o they_o can_v come_v to_o we_o but_o the_o ancient_a father_n know_v no_o such_o tradition_n but_o every_o where_o assert_v the_o perfection_n and_o sufficiency_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n ireneus_fw-la call_v the_o holy_a scripture_n such_o a_o rule_n of_o faith_n as_o none_o must_v vary_v from_o st._n chrysostome_n say_v that_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v necessary_a be_v plain_a and_o manifest_a in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n

there_o thus_o the_o father_n know_v nothing_o of_o any_o unwritten_a tradition_n that_o be_v to_o cut_v out_o the_o holy_a scripture_n but_o they_o refer_v we_o to_o they_o as_o to_o a_o perfect_a rule_n and_o well_o indeed_o they_o may_v since_o st._n paul_n tell_v we_o they_o be_v able_a to_o make_v we_o wise_a unto_o salvation_n and_o he_o add_v more_o full_o yet_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o do_v so_o when_o he_o tell_v we_o they_o be_v able_a to_o make_v the_o man_n of_o god_n perfect_a thorough_o furnish_v unto_o every_o good_a work_n thus_o great_a be_v the_o perfection_n of_o these_o holy_a oracle_n and_o thus_o plain_a it_o be_v that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n on_o which_o the_o true_a church_n be_v build_v be_v full_o and_o sufficient_o deliver_v to_o we_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n i_o come_v in_o the_o three_o place_n to_o show_v you_o that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v build_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n king_n charles_n the_o first_o as_o he_o be_v not_o unwilling_a to_o die_v a_o martyr_n for_o the_o church_n of_o england_n so_o at_o his_o death_n he_o leave_v she_o the_o

the_o best_a profession_n of_o religion_n i_o have_v ever_o esteem_v that_o of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n i_o tell_v you_o i_o have_v try_v it_o and_o after_o much_o search_n and_o many_o

whosoever_o do_v but_o look_v into_o the_o article_n of_o our_o church_n will_v find_v how_o well_o she_o deserve_v this_o most_o honourable_a character_n for_o she_o profess_v to_o believe_v the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o as_o i_o show_v above_o contain_v the_o whole_a doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n she_o believe_v the_o same_o faith_n and_o no_o other_o than_o that_o which_o

be_v controvert_v between_o we_o and_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n a_o little_a examination_n will_v discover_v which_o church_n be_v build_v upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o

find_v nothing_o there_o that_o make_v st._n peter_n the_o chief_a of_o the_o apostle_n for_o if_o christ_n have_v ever_o intend_v st._n peter_n any_o such_o power_n over_o the_o rest_n he_o will_v doubtless_o have_v declare_v so_o much_o when_o the_o apostle_n be_v at_o strife_n who_o shall_v be_v the_o great_a but_o so_o far_o be_v our_o saviour_n from_o declare_v st._n peter_n supremacy_n that_o he_o chide_v they_o for_o their_o vain_a strife_n and_o contention_n yea_o tell_v they_o in_o plain_a term_n that_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v among_o they_o as_o in_o secular_a kingdom_n and_o monarchy_n where_o one_o be_v chief_a and_o if_o st._n peter_n have_v at_o any_o time_n afterward_o be_v make_v a_o prince_n we_o can_v imagine_v st._n paul_n can_v have_v be_v ignorant_a of_o it_o and_o yet_o he_o tell_v we_o 2._o cor._n 11._o 5._o that_o he_o be_v not_o behind_o the_o very_o chief_a apostle_n
which_o incline_v the_o heart_n of_o that_o noble_a lord_n to_o communicate_v the_o letter_n which_o otherwise_o may_v easy_o have_v be_v slight_v as_o the_o offspring_n of_o some_o melancholy_a

in_o judgement_n his_o royal_a breast_n at_o other_o time_n use_v to_o be_v free_a from_o jealousy_n account_v it_o no_o less_o than_o a_o badge_n of_o tyranny_n but_o now_o providence_n so_o order_v

of_o jerusalem_n by_o send_v his_o angel_n to_o destroy_v 185000_o of_o his_o army_n and_o though_o sennacherib_n himself_o be_v spare_v that_o he_o may_v the_o better_o know_v the_o power_n of_o that_o god_n who_o he_o have_v despise_v and_o blaspheme_v yet_o because_o he_o be_v not_o thorough_o reform_v by_o this_o first_o judgement_n but_o his_o wrath_n still_o remain_v when_o he_o come_v to_o his_o chief_a city_n niniveh_n where_o he_o fall_v to_o persecute_v the_o ten_o tribe_n which_o be_v captive_a there_o god_n restrain_v this_o remainder_n of_o his_o wrath_n by_o another_o

those_o strange_a judgement_n which_o he_o execute_v on_o the_o powder-traytor_n be_v it_o not_o remarkable_a what_o happen_v at_o holbeach_n in_o worcestershire_n where_o some_o of_o this_o day_n

the_o justice_n of_o man_n be_v able_a to_o seize_v they_o add_v to_o this_o what_o we_o read_v in_o king_n james_n work_n how_o that_o god_n do_v secret_o exasperate_v the_o spirit_n of_o all_o man_n against_o these_o popish_a traitor_n that_o in_o the_o country_n where_o they_o wander_v some_o of_o they_o be_v kill_v other_o take_v before_o any_o proclamation_n can_v overtake_v they_o and_o before_o the_o people_n who_o seize_v they_o know_v any_o thing_n of_o this_o particular_a treason_n thus_o god_n this_o day_n do_v make_v the_o wrath_n of_o man_n to_o praise_v he_o to_o praise_v his_o justice_n his_o power_n in_o execute_v such_o strange_a judgement_n upon_o these_o bloody_a unnatural_a traitor_n but_o it_o be_v time_n i_o shall_v show_v you_o in_o the_o second_o place_n second_o who_o they_o be_v god_n make_v to_o praise_v he_o i_o shall_v name_v two_o sort_n of_o men._n one_a god_n by_o such_o mean_n as_o these_o make_v his_o very_a enemy_n to_o praise_v he_o by_o acknowledge_v either_o his_o power_n or_o his_o justice_n in_o their_o punishment_n thus_o pharaoh_n and_o the_o egyptian_n acknowledge_v god_n power_n in_o the_o red_a sea_n when_o they_o cry_v out_o let_v we_o flee_v from_o the_o face_n of_o israel_n for_o the_o lord_n fight_v for_o they_o against_o the_o egyptian_n it_o be_v very_o remarkable_a what_o herodotus_n report_v of_o sennacherib_n the_o burden_n of_o the_o text_n namely_o that_o he_o have_v a_o statute_n erect_v after_o his_o death_n with_o this_o good_a advice_n engrave_v on_o it_o whosoever_o look_v upon_o i_o let_v he_o

who_o he_o wonderful_o deliver_v from_o the_o rage_n of_o wicked_a bloody_a man_n thus_o israel_n when_o they_o see_v the_o egyptian_n dead_a upon_o the_o shore_n they_o sing_v praise_n unto_o god_n proclaim_v he_o fearful_a in_o praise_n and_o do_v wonder_n thus_o hezekiah_n send_v this_o psalm_n to_o the_o chief_a musician_n on_o neginoth_n that_o solemn_a praise_n and_o thanksgiving_n may_v

sure_o if_o god_n extort_v praise_n from_o his_o very_a enemy_n he_o may_v more_o just_o inhabit_v the_o praise_n of_o his_o own_o people_n those_o that_o he_o have_v so_o wonderful_o preserve_v nay_o

which_o god_n have_v magnify_v how_o precious_a how_o honourable_a ought_v it_o to_o be_v in_o all_o our_o eye_n which_o god_n have_v honour_v with_o so_o many_o miracle_n we_o know_v this_o church_n
