for_o which_o cause_n the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v liken_v to_o a_o sour_a that_o go_v forth_o to_o sow_v his_o seed_n hither_o shall_v we_o resort_v for_o god_n be_v in_o the_o mid_n of_o she_o

we_o to_o this_o hope_n do_v teach_v we_o what_o sort_n of_o generation_n it_o be_v that_o make_v we_o to_o have_v this_o hope_n to_o wit_n a_o spiritual_a and_o not_o fleshlie_o birth_n for_o as_o

the_o child_n of_o god_n therefore_o do_v john_n call_v this_o a_o gift_n of_o power_n in_o the_o first_o of_o his_o gospel_n say_v to_o those_o that_o receyve_v he_o he_o give_v they_o this_o power_n

how_o great_a a_o love_n the_o father_n have_v give_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n we_o have_v next_o to_o consider_v that_o this_o birth_n must_v be_v after_o a_o former_a birth_n because_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n have_v beget_v we_o again_o and_o christ_n to_o nicodemus_n say_v plain_o that_o he_o that_o be_v not_o bear_v again_o can_v not_o see_v the_o

of_o great_a lord_n and_o prince_n and_o so_o have_v hope_n of_o their_o inheritance_n by_o our_o first_o birth_n but_o though_o a_o emperor_n have_v beget_v thou_o it_o make_v thou_o not_o the_o

or_o gentile_n great_a or_o small_a poor_a or_o scotfree_a noble_a or_o ignoble_a in_o his_o first_o birth_n which_o be_v declare_v by_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o ephesian_n to_o wit_n 2.3_o ephe._n 2.3_o that_o he_o be_v the_o child_n of_o wrath_n by_o nature_n &_o therefore_o can_v have_v no_o hope_n but_o of_o wrath_n for_o as_o david_n confess_v of_o himself_o it_o be_v true_a of_o all_o

the_o use_n hereof_o of_o be_v twofolde_a first_o it_o serve_v to_o beat_v down_o the_o pride_n of_o all_o flesh_n &_o to_o teach_v man_n not_o to_o glory_v in_o their_o blood_n nor_o kindred_n see_v

all_o man_n therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v the_o lesson_n which_o john_n the_o baptist_n teach_v the_o pharisee_n and_o sadducee_n in_o the_o gospel_n according_a to_o matthew_n let_v we_o not_o

the_o apostle_n paul_n to_o the_o philippian_n 3.3_o phil._n 3.3_o let_v we_o glory_n in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o put_v no_o confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n although_o we_o have_v all_o matter_n of_o glory_v in_o the_o flesh_n that_o ever_o man_n have_v let_v we_o learn_v with_o the_o apostle_n in_o that_o place_n to_o esteem_v all_o fleshly_a prerogative_n to_o be_v loss_n yea_o to_o be_v dung_n for_o chrisle_n sake_n that_o we_o may_v gain_v he_o the_o second_o use_n hereof_o be_v to_o teach_v we_o that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o hope_n of_o life_n in_o a_o man_n who_o be_v not_o regenerate_v by_o god_n and_o beget_v of_o he_o again_o see_v this_o be_v the_o mean_a by_o which_o the_o the_o lord_n bring_v we_o to_o this_o hope_n and_o therefore_o the_o boast_n of_o the_o wicked_a that_o they_o hope_v to_o go_v to_o heaven_n be_v nothing_o but_o vanity_n and_o all_o the_o confidence_n they_o have_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o vain_a and_o deceitful_a thought_n of_o a_o blind_a &_o

in_o the_o spirit_n of_o
promise_v to_o abraham_n when_o he_o pray_v that_o ishmael_n may_v live_v in_o his_o sight_n 1●_n gene._n 17_o 1●_n that_o he_o will_v bless_v he_o and_o make_v he_o fruitful_a and_o multiply_v he_o

we_o to_o beware_v of_o this_o common_a error_n of_o the_o wordly_a who_o do_v esteem_v so_o little_a of_o sin_n that_o when_o they_o so_o licentiouslie_o do_v commit_v all_o uncleanes_n yet_o do_v they_o think_v thimselue_n in_o no_o peril_n at_o all_o there_o be_v and_o have_v be_v ever_o in_o the_o world_n sin_n &_o profane_a person_n who_o have_v deceive_v other_o with_o vain_a word_n as_o though_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n shall_v not_o come_v upon_o man_n for_o whoredom_n covetousness_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o do_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o ephesian_n warn_v we_o that_o we_o let_v

not_o to_o extenuate_v sin_n nor_o secure_o to_o give_v ourselves_o to_o sin_n since_o no_o common_a mercy_n but_o a_o superabundant_a mercy_n can_v obtain_v remission_n of_o sin_n at_o the_o hand_n of_o our_o god_n this_o point_n serve_v next_o for_o consolation_n to_o all_o penitent_a sinner_n how_o weary_a and_o load_v soever_o they_o be_v since_o sin_n can_v not_o abound_v in_o so_o great_a measure_n but_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n abound_v much_o more_o yea_o this_o be_v the_o very_a custom_n of_o god_n that_o where_o he_o make_v the_o sense_n and_o sight_n of_o sin_n to_o abound_v there_o he_o make_v also_o the_o sense_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o grace_n to_o abound_v much_o more_o let_v we_o not_o therefore_o with_o cain_n esteem_v our_o sin_n great_a than_o we_o can_v bear_v and_o distrust_v in_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n see_v the_o lord_n himself_o make_v we_o this_o promise_n by_o the_o prophet_n esai_n 1.18_o esai_n 1.18_o though_o your_o sin_n be_v as_o crimson_a they_o shall_v be_v make_v white_a as_o the_o snow_n though_o they_o be_v red_a as_o scarlet_a they_o shall_v be_v white_a as_o wool_n therefore_o be_v it_o that_o god_n have_v show_v mercy_n to_o the_o chief_a sinner_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o despair_v in_o god_n mercy_n though_o our_o iniquity_n be_v never_o so_o great_a this_o do_v the_o apostle_n paul_n plain_o teach_v we_o by_o his_o own_o example_n in_o the_o first_o cha_n to_o tim._n 1.16_o 1._o tim._n 1.16_o show_v that_o albeit_o he_o be_v chief_a of_o sinner_n &_o albeit_o he_o be_v a_o persecutor_n yet_o be_v he_o receyve_v to_o mercy_n by_o the_o exceed_a abundance_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n towards_o he_o in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o that_o for_o this_o cause_n that_o christ_n jesus_n shall_v first_o show_v on_o he_o all_o long_a suffering_n to_o the_o example_n of_o all_o they_o which_o in_o time_n to_o come_v shall_v believe_v in_o he_o unto_o eternal_a life_n and_o therefore_o declare_v that_o this_o be_v a_o say_v both_o true_a and_o by_o all_o mean_v worthy_a to_o be_v receyve_v to_o wit_n that_o christ_n jesus_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o save_v sinner_n let_v not_o then_o the_o haynousnes_n of_o our_o iniquity_n dryve_v we_o away_o from_o god_n who_o be_v able_a to_o remove_v our_o sin_n from_o we_o as_o far_o as_o be_v the_o east_n from_o the_o west_n 103.12_o psal_n 103.12_o see_v

behoove_v that_o their_o merit_n be_v add_v to_o god_n mercy_n for_o obtain_v of_o eternal_a life_n as_o though_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n be_v not_o sufficient_a alone_o to_o move_v god_n to_o

of_o god_n mercy_n give_v we_o in_o christ_n do_v always_o exceed_v the_o measure_n of_o our_o sin_n therefore_o do_v the_o apostle_n reason_n to_o the_o roman_n from_o this_o abundance_n of_o the_o
