i_o stand_v now_o bind_v by_o a_o debt_n of_o promise_n to_o speak_v somewhat_o of_o his_o profession_n for_o if_o we_o look_v upon_o the_o word_n of_o my_o text_n as_o a_o continue_a allegory_n as_o you_o may_v remember_v we_o do_v when_o we_o take_v it_o in_o piece_n then_o this_o jesus_n christ_n as_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o man_n in_o the_o text_n do_v personate_v a_o physician_n and_o indeed_o whilst_o he_o be_v incarnate_a he_o seem_v to_o delight_v in_o no_o one_o title_n more_o than_o this_o of_o a_o physician_n as_o you_o may_v observe_v both_o in_o the_o nine_o chapter_n of_o st._n matth._n at_o the_o twelve_o verse_n where_o apologize_v for_o his_o frequent_v the_o company_n of_o publican_n and_o sinner_n he_o do_v it_o under_o this_o parable_n the_o whole_a have_v no_o need_n of_o the_o physician_n but_o the_o sick_a his_o meaning_n be_v that_o as_o sin_n be_v a_o sickness_n so_o he_o be_v a_o physician_n and_o as_o physician_n for_o the_o most_o part_n be_v take_v up_o in_o visit_v their_o patient_n so_o be_v he_o and_o as_o the_o sound_n need_v not_o the_o physician_n so_o the_o pharisee_n who_o be_v so_o many_o justiciaries_n and_o trust_v in_o their_o own_o righteousness_n never_o think_v that_o they_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o christ_n etc._n etc._n and_o also_o in_o the_o four_o chap._n of_o st._n luke_n at_o the_o 23d._o verse_n you_o will_v say_v unto_o i_o according_a to_o the_o proverb_n physician_n heal_v thyself_o in_o both_o which_o and_o divers_a other_o place_n and_o passage_n of_o scripture_n he_o assume_v the_o habit_n and_o profession_n of_o a_o physician_n and_o well_o he_o may_v for_o as_o in_o some_o thing_n he_o be_v like_o other_o physician_n so_o in_o many_o thing_n he_o do_v exceed_v and_o excel_v they_o i_o say_v again_o that_o in_o some_o thing_n christ_n be_v like_o other_o physician_n for_o first_o as_o a_o physician_n must_v be_v thorough_o skilled_a in_o the_o theory_n of_o all_o disease_n that_o so_o he_o may_v know_v how_o to_o proportion_v and_o apply_v his_o medicine_n to_o the_o radical_a humour_n of_o every_o malady_n that_o ill_o affect_v his_o patient_n so_o in_o christ_n be_v hide_v all_o the_o treasure_n of_o wisdom_n and_o knowledge_n say_v the_o apostle_n and_o therefore_o he_o can_v not_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o cause_n or_o cure_v of_o any_o evil_n that_o befall_v we_o he_o know_v whereof_o we_o be_v make_v say_v the_o psalmist_n yea_o all_o our_o lurk_a distemper_n and_o secret_a sin_n be_v naked_a and_o open_a before_o he_o who_o eye_n be_v a_o thousand_o time_n bright_a than_o the_o sun_n second_o as_o a_o physician_n careful_o and_o compassionate_o visit_v his_o sick_a patient_n and_o abhor_v not_o their_o person_n though_o their_o disease_n be_v never_o so_o loathsome_a so_o for_o we_o man_n and_o for_o our_o salvation_n christ_n descend_v from_o the_o bosom_n of_o his_o heavenly_a father_n into_o the_o womb_n of_o his_o virgin_n mother_n and_o in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o flesh_n he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o abhor_v our_o natural_a uncleaness_n and_o even_o unnatural_a lust_n that_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o all_o our_o penal_a infirmity_n as_o the_o schoolman_n speak_v though_o not_o our_o sinful_a and_o he_o be_v tempt_v in_o all_o thing_n like_v unto_o we_o sin_n only_o except_v as_o we_o read_v in_o the_o second_o to_o the_o hebrew_n at_o the_o 17._o verse_n that_o so_o he_o may_v the_o better_o sympathize_v in_o all_o our_o suffering_n and_o heal_v our_o sin_n three_o as_o it_o be_v the_o praise_n of_o a_o physician_n that_o he_o will_v visit_v the_o poor_a though_o they_o be_v not_o solvant_fw-la and_o he_o will_v not_o protract_v his_o cure_n beyond_o the_o rule_n of_o art_n though_o he_o may_v thereby_o much_o enrich_v himself_o so_o christ_n do_v free_o administer_v all_o his_o spiritual_a potion_n and_o he_o cure_v all_o such_o as_o have_v long_o languish_v speedy_o yea_o he_o not_o only_o heal_v all_o that_o come_v but_o he_o invite_v they_o to_o come_v unto_o he_o as_o in_o the_o 11._o chapter_n of_o st._n matthew_n and_o the_o 28._o verse_n come_v unto_o i_o all_o you_o that_o be_v weary_a and_o heavy_a lade_v and_o i_o will_v refresh_v you_o and_o when_o they_o be_v so_o weary_v with_o the_o load_n of_o sin_n that_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o come_v unto_o he_o he_o vouchsafe_v to_o come_v unto_o they_o and_o he_o soughtout_a opportunity_n to_o be_v do_v of_o good_a four_o as_o a_o physician_n seldom_o administer_v physic_n but_o where_o he_o find_v both_o a_o capacity_n and_o velleity_n in_o the_o patient_n to_o take_v it_o so_o christ_n common_o give_v his_o spiritual_a medicine_n to_o none_o but_o such_o as_o be_v poor_a in_o spirit_n which_o make_v they_o capable_a and_o tonone_o but_o such_o as_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n after_o righteousness_n which_o argue_v a_o eager_a appetite_n and_o velleity_n to_o become_v safe_a and_o sound_a you_o know_v how_o he_o begin_v his_o cure_n upon_o the_o cripple_n john_n 5._o 6._o that_o have_v lie_v so_o long_o at_o the_o pool_n of_o bethesda_n vis_fw-la sanus_fw-la fieri_fw-la will_v thou_o be_v make_v whole_a and_o as_o soon_o as_o he_o have_v profess_v his_o willingness_n but_o only_o that_o he_o want_v a_o man_n to_o help_v he_o then_o christ_n as_o a_o physician_n say_v and_o his_o word_n have_v a_o deed_n in_o it_o ecce_fw-la sanus_fw-la factus_fw-la es_fw-la behold_v thou_o be_v make_v whole_a and_o he_o be_v constant_a to_o this_o method_n in_o all_o his_o cure_n five_o as_o a_o physician_n often_o cure_v by_o contrary_n as_o a_o surfeit_n by_o fast_v etc._n etc._n so_o christ_n by_o his_o obedience_n do_v cure_v our_o disobedience_n by_o his_o humility_n our_o pride_n by_o his_o bounty_n our_o avarice_n etc._n etc._n brief_o his_o poverty_n be_v our_o riches_n his_o death_n our_o life_n his_o cross_n our_o crown_n thus_o as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o the_o first_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n at_o the_o thirty_o verse_n christ_n be_v make_v unto_o we_o of_o god_n wisdom_n righteousness_n sanctification_n and_o redemption_n that_o by_o his_o wisdom_n he_o may_v cure_v our_o folly_n by_o his_o righteousness_n our_o iniquity_n by_o his_o sanctification_n our_o profaneness_n by_o his_o redemption_n our_o spiritual_a

to_o the_o cripple_n in_o the_o 5._o chap._n of_o st._n john_n verse_n 14._o behold_v thou_o be_v make_v whole_a sin_n no_o more_o lest_o a_o worse_a thing_n fall_v unto_o thou_o in_o which_o method_n

thou_o have_v suffer_v for_o thy_o former_a fin_n yet_o if_o thou_o go_v on_o a_o worse_a thing_n may_v befall_v thou_o in_o this_o life_n and_o if_o not_o here_o than_o i_o tremble_v to_o think_v
