say_v belove_a in_o the_o lord_n because_o the_o lord_n have_v feed_v our_o soul_n at_o his_o table_n let_v we_o all_o with_o thanckesgiving_n praise_v his_o name_n and_o every_o one_o say_v in_o

who_o satisfy_v thou_o with_o good_a thing_n the_o lord_n be_v merciful_a and_o gracious_a slow_a to_o anger_n and_o plenteous_a in_o mercy_n he_o do_v not_o deal_v with_o we_o after_o our_o sin_n nor_o reward_v we_o according_a to_o our_o iniquity_n for_o as_o the_o heaven_n be_v high_a above_o the_o earth_n so_o great_a be_v his_o mercy_n towards_o they_o that_o fear_v he_o as_o far_o as_o

unto_o we_o a_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n whereby_o we_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o all_o his_o benefit_n and_o that_o thou_o have_v cause_v thy_o son_n to_o institute_v this_o holy_a supper_n for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o our_o faith_n grant_v we_o beseech_v thou_o most_o faithful_a god_n and_o father_n that_o through_o the_o operation_n of_o thy_o holy_a spirit_n this_o commemoration_n of_o the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n may_v tend_v to_o the_o increase_n of_o our_o say_v and_o save_a fellowship_n with_o he_o through_o jesus_n christ_n thy_o son_n our_o saviour_n in_o who_o name_n we_o conclude_v our_o prayer_n say_v our_o father_n etc._n etc._n form_n of_o excommunication_n belove_a in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v know_v unto_o you_o how_o that_o at_o several_a time_n by_o several_a degree_n we_o have_v propound_v unto_o you_o what_o a_o heinous_a sin_n have_v be_v commit_v by_o our_o fellow-member_n n._n and_o what_o great_a offence_n thereby_o be_v give_v to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o through_o the_o help_n of_o your_o prayer_n and_o christian_a admonition_n may_v be_v bring_v to_o repentance_n and_o so_o be_v free_v from_o the_o

see_v we_o have_v signify_v unto_o you_o the_o last_o time_n that_o in_o case_n he_o after_o such_o patience_n show_v towards_o he_o by_o the_o church_n do_v not_o repent_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v force_v yet_o further_o to_o be_v grieve_v for_o he_o and_o to_o come_v to_o the_o last_o remedy_n therefore_o we_o be_v necessitate_v for_o the_o present_a to_o proceed_v to_o his_o excommunication_n according_a to_o the_o power_n and_o commandment_n give_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o worde_n of_o god_n to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o by_o this_o mean_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a may_v be_v bring_v to_o shame_n and_o remorse_n for_o his_o sin_n and_o that_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o church_n may_v not_o be_v put_v in_o danger_n by_o this_o rot_a and_o as_o yet_o incurable_a member_n and_o that_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n may_v not_o be_v blaspheme_v therefore_o we_o minister_n and_o elder_n of_o the_o church_n be_v meet_v in_o the_o name_n and_o power_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n declare_v before_o you_o all_o that_o for_o reason_n above_o mention_v we_o have_v excommunicate_v and_o by_o these_o do_v excommunicate_a n._n from_o the_o church_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o

in_o his_o stubbornness_n and_o impenitency_n and_o therefore_o be_v to_o be_v esteem_v of_o you_o as_o a_o heathen_a and_o publican_n according_a to_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n mat._n 18._o who_o say_v that_o be_v bind_v in_o heaven_n what_o his_o minister_n bind_v here_o on_o earth_n further_o we_o do_v admonish_v you_o belove_a christian_n that_o you_o keep_v no_o company_n with_o he_o that_o he_o may_v be_v ashamed_a yet_o hold_v he_o not_o as_o a_o enemy_n but_o admonish_v he_o sometime_o as_o you_o do_v a_o brother_n mean_v while_o every_o one_o take_v to_o heart_n this_o and_o the_o like_a example_n to_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o if_o he_o think_v he_o stand_v to_o be_v careful_a that_o he_o may_v not_o fall_v but_o have_v true_a fellowship_n with_o the_o father_n and_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n as_o also_o with_o all_o true_a believe_a christian_n persevere_v therein_o to_o the_o end_n and_o so_o partake_v of_o everlasting_a salvation_n you_o have_v see_v

therefore_o how_o subtle_a satan_n be_v to_o bring_v people_n to_o destruction_n and_o to_o take_v they_o off_o from_o all_o wholesome_a mean_n to_o salvation_n therefore_o take_v heed_n of_o the_o least_o beginning_n of_o evil_a and_o according_a to_o the_o admonition_n of_o the_o apostle_n lay_v aside_o all_o weight_n and_o sin_n which_o do_v so_o easy_o beset_v we_o run_v constant_o the_o race_n which_o be_v set_v before_o we_o look_v unto_o jesus_n the_o beginner_n and_o finisher_n of_o our_o faith_n be_v sober_a watch_n and_o pray_v that_o you_o fall_v not_o into_o temptation_n to_o day_n if_o you_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n harden_v not_o your_o heart_n but_o work_v out_o your_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a and_o every_o one_o repent_v of_o his_o sin_n that_o god_n do_v not_o again_o humble_v we_o and_o we_o be_v force_v to_o be_v grieve_v over_o any_o of_o you_o but_o that_o you_o live_v godly_a with_o one_o accord_n may_v be_v our_o joy_n and_o crown_n in_o the_o lord_n but_o see_v god_n must_v work_v in_o we_o both_o the_o will_n and_o the_o deed_n according_a to_o his_o good_a pleasure_n let_v we_o with_o confession_n of_o our_o sin_n call_v upon_o his_o name_n most_o righteous_a god_n and_o merciful_a father_n we_o bewail_v our_o sin_n before_o thy_o most_o high_a majesty_n acknowledge_v that_o we_o have_v deserve_v that_o

shall_v enter_v into_o judgement_n with_o we_o to_o be_v eternal_o separate_v from_o thou_o but_o thou_o o_o lord_n be_v gracious_a unto_o we_o for_o christ_n his_o sake_n pardon_v unto_o we_o our_o

body_n and_o although_o he_o fasten_v immortality_n upon_o it_o by_o his_o resurrection_n yet_o he_o have_v not_o change_v the_o reality_n of_o his_o humane_a nature_n because_o our_o salvation_n and_o resurrection_n also_o depend_v from_o the_o reality_n of_o his_o body_n but_o these_o two_o nature_n be_v unite_v so_o close_o in_o one_o person_n that_o they_o have_v not_o be_v separate_v even_o by_o his_o death_n therefore_o that_o which_o at_o his_o die_a he_o commit_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o father_n be_v a_o real_a humane_a spirit_n depart_v from_o his_o body_n nevertheless_o the_o divine_a nature_n be_v always_o unite_v with_o the_o humane_a even_o when_o he_o lay_v in_o the_o grave_a and_o the_o godhead_n do_v not_o cease_v in_o he_o no_o more_o than_o when_o he_o be_v a_o little_a child_n tho'_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v so_o manifest_o for_o a_o while_n therefore_o we_o confess_v he_o to_o be_v real_a god_n and_o real_a man_n real_a god_n for_o to_o overcome_v death_n by_o his_o power_n and_o real_a man_n that_o by_o the_o infirmity_n of_o his_o flesh_n he_o may_v die_v for_o we_o xx_o we_o believe_v that_o god_n who_o be_v perfect_o merciful_a and_o just_a have_v send_v his_o son_n for_o to_o take_v upon_o he_o that_o nature_n in_o which_o the_o disobedience_n be_v commit_v that_o so_o in_o it_o he_o may_v give_v satisfaction_n for_o and_o suffer_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n by_o his_o severe_a suffering_n and_o death_n thus_o god_n have_v exercise_v his_o justice_n against_o his_o son_n when_o he_o lay_v our_o sin_n upon_o he_o and_o have_v pour_v forth_o his_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n on_o we_o who_o be_v guilty_a and_o worthy_a of_o condemnation_n in_o give_v his_o son_n up_o unto_o death_n through_o a_o perfect_a love_n and_o raise_v he_o up_o to_o our_o justification_n that_o so_o by_o he_o we_o may_v obtain_v immortality_n and_o life_n eternal_a xxi_o we_o believe_v jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v a_o everlasting_a highpriest_n with_o and_o after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedec_n have_v propose_v himself_o in_o our_o name_n to_o the_o father_n for_o to_o allay_v his_o anger_n with_o full_a satisfaction_n offer_v himself_o up_o unto_o the_o cross_n and_o shed_v his_o precious_a blood_n to_o the_o cleanse_n of_o our_o sin_n as_o the_o prophet_n have_v foretold_v for_o it_o be_v write_v that_o the_o punishment_n be_v lay_v upon_o the_o son_n of_o god_n that_o we_o may_v have_v peace_n and_o be_v heal_v by_o his_o wound_n that_o he_o be_v bring_v to_o death_n like_o a_o lamb_n be_v reckon_v among_o the_o malefactor_n that_o he_o be_v condemn_v as_o a_o malefactor_n by_o pontius_n pilate_n although_o he_o find_v he_o not_o guilty_a thus_o he_o have_v pay_v for_o that_o which_o he_o do_v not_o rob_v and_o suffer_v though_o just_a for_o the_o un_fw-mi just_o both_o in_o body_n and_o soul_n feel_v the_o horrible_a punishment_n which_o our_o sin_n deserve_v inasmuch_o that_o his_o sweat_n become_v like_v unto_o drop_n of_o blood_n fall_v upon_o the_o ground_n he_o cry_v my_o god_n my_o god_n why_o have_v thou_o forsake_v i_o suffer_v all_o this_o for_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n therefore_o we_o say_v right_a well_o with_o saint_n paul_n that_o we_o do_v not_o know_v anything_o save_v christ_n and_o he_o crucify_v we_o count_v all_o thing_n but_o dung_n for_o the_o excellency_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o find_v all_o manner_n of_o consolation_n in_o his_o wound_n and_o we_o have_v no_o need_n to_o seek_v or_o invent_v any_o other_o mean_n to_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n but_o this_o one_o sacrifice_n once_o offer_v up_o through_o which_o the_o believer_n become_v perfect_a for_o ever_o this_o also_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o he_o be_v call_v by_o the_o angel_n of_o god_n jesus_n that_o be_v saviour_n because_o he_o shall_v save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n xxii_o we_o believe_v that_o for_o the_o attain_n to_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o this_o mystery_n the_o holy_a ghost_n kindle_v in_o our_o heart_n a_o sincere_a belief_n which_o embrace_v jesus_n christ_n with_o all_o his_o merit_n and_o own_v he_o seek_v nothing_o beside_o he_o for_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o either_o every_o thing_n which_o be_v require_v to_o our_o salvation_n be_v not_o in_o christ_n jesus_n or_o if_o all_o thing_n be_v in_o he_o than_o he_o who_o enjoy_v christ_n by_o faith_n must_v have_v his_o salvation_n entire_o now_o to_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v not_o sufficient_a but_o that_o there_o want_v something_o beside_o he_o will_v be_v to_o gross_a a_o blasphemy_n for_o hence_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o christ_n be_v but_o half_a a_o saviour_n therefore_o we_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o say_v with_o st._n paul_n that_o we_o be_v justify_v only_o by_o faith_n or_o by_o faith_n without_o work_n yet_o to_o speak_v more_o proper_o we_o do_v not_o mean_v the_o faith_n to_o be_v that_o by_o which_o we_o be_v justify_v for_o it_o be_v but_o a_o instrument_n by_o which_o we_o embrace_v christ_n our_o righteousness_n but_o jesus_n christ_n impute_v we_o all_o his_o merit_n and_o so_o many_o holy_a work_n as_o he_o have_v do_v for_o we_o and_o in_o our_o room_n be_v our_o righteousness_n and_o faith_n be_v a_o instrument_n by_o which_o we_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o all_o his_o good_n which_o be_v become_v we_o be_v more_o than_o sufficient_a to_o the_o absolve_v we_o of_o our_o sin_n xxiii_o we_o believe_v that_o our_o happiness_n consist_v in_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n for_o jesus_n christ_n sake_n and_o that_o our_o righteousness_n before_o god_n be_v contain_v therein_o as_o david_n and_o st._n paul_n do_v teach_v we_o declare_v this_o to_o be_v the_o happiness_n of_o man_n that_o god_n impute_v he_o the_o righteousness_n without_o work_n and_o the_o same_o apostle_n say_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v free_o or_o through_o grace_n by_o the_o redemption_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o therefore_o we_o do_v always_o lay_v hold_n of_o this_o foundation_n give_v all_o glory_n unto_o god_n and_o humble_v and_o acknowledge_v ourselves_o to_o be_v such_o as_o realy_a we_o be_v without_o boast_v of_o any_o thing_n out_o of_o ourselves_o or_o our_o own_o merit_n but_o only_o rely_v on_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n the_o crucify_a which_o be_v we_o if_o we_o believe_v in_o he_o be_v sufficient_a to_o hide_v all_o our_o iniquity_n and_o to_o give_v we_o boldness_n to_o free_v the_o conscience_n from_o terror_n astonishment_n and_o fear_n to_o approach_v unto_o god_n without_o do_v like_o our_o first_o father_n adam_n who_o tremble_v cover_v himself_o with_o figleaf_n and_o true_o if_o we_o be_v to_o appear_v before_o god_n rely_v upon_o ourselves_o or_o any_o other_o creature_n though_o never_o so_o little_a alas_o we_o will_v be_v devour_v and_o therefore_o every_o one_o ought_v to_o say_v with_o david_n lord_n do_v not_o enter_v into_o judgement_n with_o thy_o servant_n for_o no_o live_a creature_n will_v be_v justify_v before_o thou_o xxiv_o we_o believe_v that_o this_o true_a faith_n be_v wrought_v in_o man_n by_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v regenerate_v and_o change_v he_o into_o a_o new_a man_n by_o which_o he_o come_v to_o live_v a_o new_a life_n and_o be_v make_v free_a from_o the_o bondage_n of_o sin_n this_o justify_v faith_n therefore_o be_v so_o far_o from_o make_v man_n grow_v cold_a in_o a_o honest_a and_o holy_a life_n that_o without_o it_o they_o will_v never_o do_v any_o thing_n out_o of_o love_n unto_o god_n but_o only_o out_o of_o love_n unto_o themselves_o and_o for_o fear_n of_o be_v damn_v it_o be_v therefore_o impossible_a that_o this_o holy_a faith_n shall_v be_v unfruitful_a in_o man_n for_o we_o do_v not_o speak_v of_o a_o vain_a belief_n but_o of_o such_o a_o one_o which_o in_o the_o scripture_n be_v call_v a_o faith_n that_o work_v by_o love_n and_o stir_v man_n to_o the_o excercise_n of_o those_o work_n which_o god_n have_v command_v in_o his_o word_n which_o work_v if_o they_o proceed_v from_o the_o good_a root_n of_o faith_n be_v good_a and_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n because_o they_o be_v sanctify_v by_o his_o grace_n in_o the_o mean_a while_o they_o be_v of_o no_o account_n towards_o our_o justification_n for_o it_o be_v by_o faith_n in_o christ_n that_o we_o be_v justify_v even_o before_o we_o do_v any_o good_a work_n otherwise_o they_o can_v not_o be_v good_a no_o more_o than_o the_o fruit_n of_o a_o tree_n can_v be_v good_a before_o the_o tree_n itself_o be_v good_a thus_o we_o do_v good_a work_n but_o not_o for_o any_o merit_n for_o what_o can_v we_o merit_v nay_o we_o be_v behold_v
