here_o than_o we_o see_v in_o effect_n that_o when_o god_n tell_v the_o people_n that_o they_o shall_v die_v in_o the_o wilderness_n he_o mean_v not_o to_o punish_v they_o with_o such_o extremity_n

again_o we_o see_v how_o god_n wrought_v in_o moses_n by_o a_o power_n that_o be_v not_o common_a to_o man_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o at_o the_o age_n of_o sixscore_o year_n there_o be_v in_o

choose_v of_o the_o excellent_a man_n in_o the_o world_n needs_o must_v it_o be_v they_o that_o god_n aid_v he_o now_o whereas_o in_o so_o old_a age_n man_n be_v wont_a to_o be_v droop_v and_o half_a

that_o god_n have_v compassion_n of_o his_o people_n and_o this_o be_v express_o declare_v that_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n shall_v know_v that_o god_n never_o forsake_v they_o &_o that_o although_o

of_o unthankfulness_n now_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n mourn_v thirty_o day_n for_o the_o death_n of_o moses_n it_o be_v a_o common_a thing_n to_o make_v such_o sorrow_n for_o the_o dead_a but_o forasmuch_o as_o moses_n be_v a_o father_n to_o all_o the_o whole_a people_n it_o be_v very_o requisite_a that_o not_o some_o one_o house_n or_o kindred_n but_o that_o all_o those_o

therefore_o do_v witness_v open_o how_o much_o they_o be_v bind_v and_o behold_v unto_o moses_n and_o all_o of_o they_o show_v themselves_o as_o his_o child_n but_o here_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o make_v such_o lamentation_n for_o a_o man_n that_o be_v depart_v for_o it_o shall_v seem_v to_o be_v a_o incounter_v of_o god_n will_n we_o know_v that_o the_o life_n

by_o the_o prophet_n 12.3_o jer._n 12.3_o that_o god_n pamper_v those_o who_o he_o punish_v not_o out_o of_o hand_n like_z as_o man_n do_v fat_a a_o ox_n or_o a_o swine_n when_o they_o intend_v to_o

to_o do_v all_o manner_n of_o mischief_n without_o correction_n on_o the_o other_o side_n in_o mynd_v to_o be_v severe_a we_o run_v in_o danger_n of_o be_v too_o severe_a god_n therefore_o appoint_v a_o mean_a which_o be_v first_o of_o all_o that_o we_o shall_v punish_v the_o offence_n that_o deserve_v death_n and_o second_o to_o the_o end_n that_o justice_n shall_v be_v have_v in_o honour_n

be_v spare_v that_o be_v one_o point_n another_o be_v that_o man_n may_v say_v thus_o with_o themselves_o lo_o here_o be_v a_o wicked_a deed_n do_v for_o these_o be_v token_n that_o the_o land_n have_v be_v defile_v therefore_o when_o a_o body_n be_v so_o hang_v up_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o the_o defyl_n of_o the_o land_n by_o the_o commit_n of_o some_o robbery_n murder_n or_o other_o heinous_a crime_n when_o it_o be_v so_o let_v this_o also_o be_v ever_o mark_v god_n therefore_o intend_v to_o show_v that_o where_o justice_n be_v execute_v the_o fault_n be_v forgive_v and_o the_o

you_o think_v to_o cast_v away_o my_o word_n and_o yet_o to_o remain_v unpunished_a you_o deceive_v yourselves_o i_o must_v call_v you_o to_o account_v for_o it_o i_o will_v not_o suffer_v my_o

of_o submit_v ourselves_o unto_o he_o special_o when_o he_o appli_v himself_o every_o way_n unto_o we_o to_o the_o intent_n we_o shall_v remain_v in_o his_o obedience_n and_o not_o perish_v sith_o

god_n do_v not_o punish_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o faithful_a he_o do_v it_o to_o preserve_v they_o as_o the_o physician_n that_o wait_v not_o always_o till_o the_o sickness_n do_v appear_v but_o if_o

to_o blind_v man_n eye_n or_o to_o hinder_v our_o come_n unto_o he_o lest_o it_o shall_v stay_v we_o too_o long_o in_o this_o world_n he_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o be_v so_o entangle_v in_o our_o delight_n as_o to_o fall_v altogether_o on_o sleep_n in_o the_o same_o there_o be_v yet_o a_o second_o point_n to_o wit_n that_o when_o god_n forbear_v to_o punish_v we_o for_o our_o sin_n it_o be_v not_o that_o he_o have_v not_o always_o just_a cause_n so_o to_o do_v if_o he_o list_v let_v the_o perfect_a folk_n in_o the_o world_n be_v choose_v out_o and_o yet_o if_o god_n will_v deal_v

and_o every_o of_o we_o play_v the_o judge_n in_o condemn_v ourselves_o that_o by_o that_o mean_a we_o may_v obtain_v favour_n at_o his_o hand_n but_o if_o we_o will_v needs_o be_v self-willed_a

in_o his_o text_n when_o moses_n say_v that_o god_n will_v arm_v the_o enemy_n without_o and_o send_v fear_n within_o whereby_o he_o mean_v that_o their_o need_v no_o more_o but_o a_o shadow_n to_o

unto_o he_o that_z y_z e_z land_n be_v not_o the_o chief_a heritage_n whereunto_o the_o child_n of_o abraham_n be_v to_o attain_v here_o therefore_o we_o have_v a_o sure_a record_n that_o although_o

call_v we_o to_o y_z e_z hope_v of_o the_o heavenly_a life_n wherein_o we_o shall_v be_v renew_v so_o then_o let_v we_o understande_v that_o god_n humble_v we_o by_o death_n and_o that_o we_o must_v

to_o comfort_v we_o in_o the_o mid_n of_o all_o our_o heaviness_n at_o leastwise_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v a_o bridle_n to_o restrain_v our_o sorrow_n that_o it_o pass_v not_o the_o bound_n and_o so_o

they_o have_v no_o comfort_n which_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o patience_n but_o forasmuch_o as_o god_n call_v we_o to_o the_o hope_n which_o he_o give_v we_o therefore_o after_o we_o have_v weep_v and_o mourn_v we_o have_v wherefore_o to_o give_v he_o thanks_o to_o bless_v his_o holy_a name_n and_o to_o content_v ourselves_o that_o he_o use_v not_o extreme_a rigour_n against_o us._n now_o then_o although_o we_o weep_v when_o we_o see_v that_o our_o lord_n have_v take_v those_o from_o we_o which_o may_v have_v stand_v we_o in_o great_a steed_n yet_o must_v we_o not_o fall_v into_o

when_o we_o perceive_v any_o sign_n of_o his_o wrath_n and_o when_o we_o have_v acknowledge_v our_o sin_n and_o ask_v forgiveness_n of_o they_o at_o his_o hand_n we_o must_v also_o wait_v his_o

that_o our_o forefather_n have_v âo_o ceremony_n than_o we_o have_v because_o they_o have_v not_o so_o evident_a a_o record_n of_o the_o everlasting_a life_n and_o the_o selfsame_o reason_n be_v of_o

so_o well_o witness_v as_o it_o be_v now_o i_o grant_v that_o the_o father_n know_v well_o what_o be_v requisite_a to_o their_o salvation_n howbeit_o y_o it_o be_v under_o shadow_n and_o figure_n but_o behold_v nowadays_o god_n himself_o call_v we_o from_o heaven_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n show_v we_o that_o as_o he_o himself_o be_v rise_v to_o glory_n so_o we_o also_o shall_v be_v make_v

and_o this_o be_v to_o be_v well_o mark_v for_o when_o our_o lord_n will_v have_v man_n to_o obey_v he_o he_o say_v not_o single_o he_o that_o will_v not_o obey_v my_o word_n but_o he_o that_o will_v

while_o they_o can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o yield_v he_o obedience_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o law_n or_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n or_o also_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o

that_o contrariwise_o we_o hear_v how_o it_o be_v say_v here_o that_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o hearken_v to_o he_o as_o how_o they_o can_v say_v wellynough_o that_o they_o be_v willing_a to_o

excellent_a lesson_n in_o this_o text_n for_o it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o god_n strike_v down_o all_o the_o child_n of_o adam_n with_o one_o blow_n of_o a_o beetle_n yea_o and_o thunder_v down_o upon_o they_o to_o fling_v they_o into_o such_o a_o dungeon_n of_o confusion_n as_o they_o may_v perceive_v that_o in_o themselves_o they_o be_v all_o damn_a and_o perish_v but_o we_o tarry_v not_o

ear_n we_o proceed_v so_o far_o let_v we_o consider_v how_o the_o papist_n deceive_v themselves_o they_o see_v wellynough_o that_o no_o man_n perform_v y_o e_o law_n of_o god_n and_o although_o they_o forge_v the_o fantastical_a argument_n which_o i_o speak_v of_o say_v that_o god_n command_v not_o any_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o man_n to_o do_v yet_o be_v they_o convict_v even_o by_o their_o own_o experience_n that_o all_o man_n be_v sinner_n that_o all_o man_n have_v do_v amiss_o as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n also_o tell_v we_o that_o there_o be_v not_o any_o man_n live_v upon_o the_o earth_n as_o solomon_n say_v which_o sin_v not_o and_o that_o all_o man_n have_v need_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n the_o papist_n then_o although_o they_o well_o see_v this_o yet_o do_v they_o wrangle_v still_o say_v that_o that_o be_v before_o we_o be_v regenerate_v again_o by_o god_n spirit_n nevertheless_o if_o they_o be_v press_v they_o must_v needs_o confess_v in_o the_o second_o place_n that_o even_o the_o holy_a folk_n be_v still_o unperfect_a and_o y_z t_z there_o be_v some_o frailty_n in_o they_o and_o though_o they_o will_v not_o confess_v it_o yet_o do_v the_o holy_a scripture_n show_v it_o and_o every_o man_n feel_v it_o in_o himself_o now_o then_o wherefore_o do_v the_o papist_n so_o great_o maintain_v the_o righteousness_n of_o work_n &_o bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o we_o deserve_v well_o to_o be_v recompense_v and_o that_o we_o purchase_v or_o earn_v y_z e_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o they_o be_v so_o brutish_a and_o so_o beastly_a it_o be_v because_o they_o imagine_v that_o although_o we_o perform_v not_o the_o law_n yet_o nevertheless_o we_o fail_v not_o to_o merit_v or_o deserve_v &_o this_o they_o term_v a_o righteousness_n in_o part_n they_o say_v that_o all_o man_n do_v amiss_o in_o deed_n that_o be_v true_a and_o that_o in_o that_o respect_n they_o be_v faulty_a before_o god_n and_o through_o rigour_n do_v well_o deserve_v to_o be_v condemn_v nevertheless_o y_z t_z when_o they_o have_v the_o righteousness_n in_o part_n that_o be_v to_o say_v when_o they_o do_v partly_o obey_v the_o law_n that_o do_v of_o they_o be_v worthy_a to_o be_v accept_v and_o to_o be_v put_v into_o the_o account_n and_o reckon_n and_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n wherein_o they_o glory_n so_o much_o after_o that_o manner_n then_o there_o be_v deserve_n in_o man_n though_o they_o perform_v not_o the_o whole_a law_n that_o be_v for_o one_o point_n again_o they_o have_v another_o devilish_a imagination_n which_o be_v that_o when_o they_o have_v do_v amiss_o they_o can_v make_v amends_n unto_o god_n by_o their_o own_o satisfaction_n and_o can_v ransom_n themselves_o so_o as_o they_o shall_v go_v scotfree_a at_o leastwyse_o in_o their_o own_o seem_n they_o will_v well_o confess_v in_o one_o word_n we_o be_v endanger_v but_o yet_o do_v it_o not_o follow_v that_o we_o have_v no_o mean_a to_o shift_v it_o off_o and_o to_o make_v god_n to_o accept_v in_o exchange_n whatsoever_o we_o bring_v unto_o he_o hereupon_o have_v they_o found_v all_o their_o good_a devotion_n as_o they_o term_v they_o as_o pilgrimage_n mass_n and_o yereminde_n with_o all_o their_o free_a will_n devotion_n as_o their_o fasting_n and_o diverse_a other_o thing_n in_o so_o much_o that_o even_o their_o

of_o some_o taper_n and_o such_o other_o thing_n be_v all_o of_o they_o such_o recompense_n as_o god_n can_v not_o find_v any_o fault_n at_o all_o with_o they_o howbeit_o because_o they_o see_v themselves_o overcharge_v with_o those_o thing_n they_o forge_v a_o sort_n of_o petty_a invention_n wherewith_o to_o play_v with_o god._n and_o therefore_o they_o have_v devise_v venial_a sin_n in_o so_o much_o that_o if_o a_o man_n be_v tempt_v to_o wicked_a desire_n yet_o he_o shall_v not_o have_v offend_v god_n until_o he_o be_v willing_a and_o perfect_o consent_v to_o y_z e_z performance_n thereof_o if_o a_o man_n be_v tempt_v in_o himself_o if_o a_o man_n be_v move_v to_o do_v evil_a all_o this_o be_v no_o deadly_a sin_n say_v the_o papist_n it_o be_v but_o venial_a sin_n and_o one_o sprinkle_v of_o holy_a water_n be_v enough_o to_o wash_v it_o clean_o away_o but_o contrariwise_o we_o know_v how_o it_o be_v say_v 12._o ãâ¦ã_o 12._o o_o israel_n what_o be_v it_o that_o thy_o god_n require_v of_o thou_o but_o that_o thou_o shall_v love_v he_o with_o all_o thy_o heart_n here_o you_o see_v how_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n be_v that_o a_o man_n love_n god_n with_o all_o his_o heart_n but_o he_o that_o have_v offend_v be_v accurse_v and_o all_o of_o we_o offend_v and_o be_v not_o all_o of_o we_o then_o in_o danger_n of_o death_n there_o be_v not_o that_o man_n upon_o who_o god_n pronounce_v not_o this_o curse_n now_o when_o man_n have_v think_v evil_a so_o as_o they_o have_v be_v provoke_v
to_o do_v naughty_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n say_v the_o papist_n they_o be_v righteous_a still_o for_o all_o that_o see_v how_o the_o papist_n do_v full_o mock_v god_n in_o that_o they_o think_v y_o it_o by_o some_o fond_a ceremony_n or_o by_o a_o meaculpa_fw-la they_o be_v discharge_v of_o their_o sin_n &_o make_v account_n of_o they_o as_o of_o a_o thing_n of_o nothing_o these_o be_v the_o startinghole_n which_o they_o have_v to_o mock_v god_n withal_o as_o a_o young_a babe_n and_o that_o be_v a_o dreadful_a thing_n but_o yet_o be_v it_o put_v in_o ure_n in_o all_o their_o school_n nevertheless_o we_o must_v not_o go_v to_o work_v after_o that_o fashion_n but_o we_o must_v rather_o bethink_v we_o how_o the_o apostle_n say_v 10.31_o heb._n 10.31_o that_o it_o be_v a_o dreadful_a thing_n to_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o live_a god_n therefore_o we_o must_v not_o in_o this_o case_n break_v the_o bond_n and_o yoke_n which_o he_o have_v lay_v upon_o our_o neck_n we_o must_v not_o play_v the_o wild_a beast_n we_o must_v not_o think_v to_o beguile_v he_o by_o some_o fair_a show_n in_o make_v countenance_n to_o serve_v he_o have_v in_o the_o mean_a while_o no_o

heart_a dissembler_n before_o he_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o we_o must_v frank_o refuse_v this_o gloze_n of_o righteousness_n in_o part_n which_o the_o papist_n have_v forge_v for_o it_o be_v a_o device_n of_o satan_n and_o even_o they_o themselves_o will_v well_o confess_v that_o we_o can_v merit_v by_o any_o inward_a worthiness_n which_o be_v in_o our_o work_v they_o say_v that_o all_o the_o worthiness_n of_o our_o work_v come_v only_a of_o this_o that_o god_n be_v acquaint_v with_o we_o insomuch_o that_o when_o man_n have_v do_v all_o that_o be_v possible_a yet_o will_v there_o ever_o be_v some_o fault_n to_o be_v find_v in_o their_o work_v when_o they_o come_v before_o god._n not_o that_o all_o papist_n be_v of_o that_o mind_n there_o be_v not_o past_a one_o of_o a_o thousand_o that_o think_v so_o but_o there_o be_v yet_o a_o far_o fine_a and_o subtle_a doctrine_n of_o popery_n which_o be_v that_o work_v be_v not_o worthy_a of_o themselves_o but_o because_o of_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o law_n but_o what_o manner_n a_o one_o be_v this_o promise_n let_v we_o come_v to_o that_o point_n behold_v god_n offer_v himself_o to_o all_o man_n and_o say_v that_o whosoever_o perform_v the_o law_n shall_v be_v bless_v and_o contrariwise_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v curse_v which_o step_n away_o from_o it_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o perfect_a righteousness_n be_v the_o perform_n of_o y_fw-fr e_o law_n but_o as_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o no_o man_n perform_v it_o and_o therefore_o god_n be_v quit_v of_o his_o promise_n towards_o us._n see_v that_o we_o on_o our_o side_n fail_v in_o our_o condition_n he_o for_o his_o part_n owe_v we_o nothing_o after_o the_o same_o manner_n also_o speak_v s._n paul_n thereof_o 4.14_o rom._n 4.14_o say_v if_o righteousness_n depend_v upon_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n then_o be_v the_o promise_n to_o no_o purpose_n saint_n paul_n in_o that_o place_n touch_v the_o matter_n to_o the_o quick_a for_o why_o who_o perform_v the_o law_n of_o god_n that_o he_o can_v say_v i_o have_v attain_v unto_o perfect_a righteousness_n in_o my_o work_n there_o be_v no_o such_o man_n to_o be_v find_v then_o be_v there_o no_o more_o certainty_n in_o the_o promise_n say_v he_o &_o so_o consequent_o we_o be_v all_o damn_a if_o we_o will_v needs_o ground_v ourselves_o upon_o our_o work_v after_o that_o manner_n speak_v he_o thereof_o as_o well_o to_o the_o roman_n as_o to_o the_o galathian_o 3._o rom._n 4._o gal._n 3._o and_o so_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o god_n denounce_v we_o to_o be_v all_o condemn_a by_o this_o sentence_n where_o he_o say_v curse_a shall_v he_o be_v which_o perform_v not_o all_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o book_n of_o my_o law_n as_o for_o the_o pelt_a trash_n which_o the_o papist_n call_v satisfaction_n they_o be_v but_o mockery_n for_o god_n will_v be_v serve_v with_o obedience_n moreover_o the_o release_n of_o our_o sin_n be_v free_v beestow_v as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n show_v and_o as_o for_o all_o the_o satisfaction_n as_o they_o term_v they_o which_o man_n have_v forge_v they_o serve_v to_o no_o purpose_n neither_o do_v god_n accept_v any_o of_o they_o when_o we_o fall_v to_o breed_n of_o our_o own_o lykinge_n in_o our_o own_o brain_n he_o refuse_v everywhit_o of_o it_o therefore_o let_v we_o hold_v we_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n know_v that_o we_o be_v wash_v and_o cleanse_v by_o his_o blood_n and_o it_o be_v the_o only_a remedy_n that_o god_n set_v forth_o unto_o us._n thus_o have_v we_o two_o thing_n to_o mark_v the_o one_o be_v that_o if_o we_o shall_v be_v judge_v by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n there_o need_v no_o more_o but_o this_o foresay_a sentence_n to_o damn_v we_o all_o yea_o even_o the_o holy_a saint_n that_o ever_o be_v in_o the_o world_n for_o no_o man_n have_v satisfy_v god_n law_n and_o therefore_o be_v we_o all_o condemn_v for_o if_o the_o holy_a father_n which_o have_v a_o angelical_a holiness_n in_o this_o world_n be_v notwithstanding_o faulty_a before_o god_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o let_v we_o now_o make_v comparison_n between_o we_o and_o they_o how_o far_o off_o be_v we_o from_o the_o holiness_n of_o abraham_n the_o pureness_n of_o david_n the_o soundness_n of_o job_n and_o the_o perfectness_n of_o daniel_n when_o these_o may_v be_v condemn_v what_o shall_v we_o be_v and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o shrink_v in_o our_o horn_n and_o let_v every_o of_o we_o keep_v his_o mouth_n shut_v 3.19_o rom._n 3.19_o as_o say_v saint_n paul_n when_o he_o bring_v we_o to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n and_o to_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n the_o thing_n then_o which_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n be_v that_o god_n

with_o he_o to_o bind_v he_o unto_o we_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v willing_o condemn_v ourselves_o let_v that_o serve_v for_o one_o point_n now_o hereupon_o we_o have_v to_o consider_v the_o remedy_n which_o god_n have_v leave_v which_o be_v that_o yet_o nevertheless_o we_o be_v righteous_a by_o mean_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n for_o he_o have_v deliver_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n which_o be_v due_a unto_o we_o and_o for_o that_o cause_n be_v he_o hang_v upon_o tree_n 3.13_o gal._n 3.13_o as_o say_v s._n paul_n we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o in_o the_o one_o and_o twentieth_o

whereas_o it_o be_v say_v here_o curse_a shall_v he_o be_v which_o perform_v not_o all_o these_o say_n you_o see_v well_o that_o for_o want_n of_o perform_v they_o we_o be_v confound_v and_o of_o
