we_o read_v that_o there_o be_v perfect_a gospel_n or_o only_o good_a news_n and_o glad_a tiding_n for_o the_o bad_a news_n be_v now_o all_o go_v and_o so_o it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v here_o go_v preach_v the_o gospel_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v i_o do_v not_o my_o disciple_n bid_v you_o go_v and_o give_v they_o now_o good_a news_n and_o then_o bad_a to_o give_v they_o a_o little_a of_o the_o law_n and_o a_o line_n of_o gospel_n but_o go_v preach_v the_o gospel_n emphatical_o that_o be_v mere_o pure_o gospel_n for_o now_o christ_n be_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o now_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o purity_n and_o simplicity_n be_v erect_v go_v preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o every_o creature_n what_o shall_v be_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o that_o we_o know_v that_o in_o the_o scripture_n language_n creature_n most_o usual_o signify_v not_o man_n but_o beast_n and_o thing_n without_o life_n as_o in_o rom._n 8._o you_o have_v it_o twice_o or_o thrice_o the_o creature_n groan_v the_o beast_n and_o the_o wood_n and_o every_o thing_n that_o god_n have_v make_v as_o be_v a_o name_n somewhat_o too_o low_a for_o man_n in_o the_o ordinary_a scripture_n expression_n yet_o so_o as_o it_o comprehend_v man_n for_o man_n also_o be_v sometime_o call_v creature_n now_o what_o shall_v the_o meaning_n of_o this_o be_v that_o now_o the_o gospel_n be_v to_o be_v pure_o and_o full_o and_o complete_o set_v up_o whether_o the_o lord_n jesus_n will_v have_v they_o preach_v and_o make_v know_v glad_a tiding_n to_o all_o creature_n that_o be_v that_o even_o the_o bruit_n beast_n and_o these_o creature_n without_o life_n that_o they_o shall_v have_v glad_a tiding_n and_o good_a news_n from_o the_o death_n and_o resurrection_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n i_o will_v not_o aver_v that_o it_o be_v so_o that_o that_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o but_o sure_o belove_v there_o be_v no_o creature_n under_o heaven_n but_o have_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o glad_a tiding_n and_o good_a news_n from_o the_o death_n and_o resurrection_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o we_o read_v rom._n 8._o that_o the_o creature_n groan_v and_o the_o creature_n exspect_v deliverance_n and_o redemption_n all_o these_o creature_n by_o sin_n be_v bring_v into_o slavery_n and_o certain_o they_o shall_v partake_v of_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n there_o be_v a_o redemption_n for_o they_o out_o of_o slavery_n as_o well_o as_o for_o man_n by_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o what_o that_o shall_v be_v or_o in_o what_o sort_n i_o can_v determine_v now_o whether_o you_o will_v understand_v it_o so_o that_o our_o lord_n christ_n mean_v not_o man_n and_o woman_n only_o but_o that_o by_o creature_n the_o poor_a creature_n that_o be_v without_o life_n and_o bruit_n beast_n and_o all_o may_v understand_v the_o precious_a worth_n of_o this_o gospel_n or_o take_v it_o more_o restrain_v as_o general_o the_o godly_a creature_n do_v that_o by_o creature_n here_o be_v mean_v the_o gentile_n in_o opposition_n to_o the_o jew_n for_o they_o know_v that_o they_o be_v to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o the_o jew_n which_o they_o also_o do_v before_o the_o resurrection_n but_o now_o say_v christ_n go_v preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o every_o creature_n that_o be_v now_o i_o will_v have_v no_o distinction_n of_o person_n i_o do_v not_o now_o say_v take_v heed_n of_o the_o way_n of_o the_o samaritan_n but_o go_v which_o way_n you_o will_v go_v to_o the_o gentile_n to_o sinner_n to_o any_o man_n or_o woman_n that_o you_o can_v call_v creature_n scythian_n barbaririan_a bond_n or_o free_a go_v and_o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o they_o bring_v they_o glad_a tiding_n and_o news_n that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v bring_v life_n and_o grace_n and_o salvation_n free_o for_o they_o that_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n compare_v it_o with_o mat._n 28._o 19_o go_v therefore_o teach_v all_o nation_n baptise_v they_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n here_o it_o be_v go_v preach_v to_o every_o creature_n there_o it_o be_v go_v teach_v all_o nation_n i_o will_v have_v no_o partition_n or_o distinction_n between_o they_o say_v christ_n i_o give_v you_o leave_n and_o often_o bid_v you_o teach_v the_o jew_n before_o but_o now_o go_v teach_v the_o gentile_n for_o the_o world_n be_v then_o divide_v into_o those_o two_o part_n jew_n and_o gentile_n go_v teach_v the_o gentile_n go_v teach_v every_o creature_n but_o some_o may_v say_v why_o do_v not_o our_o lord_n then_o quest_n say_v go_v teach_v the_o gentile_n as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n why_o do_v he_o call_v they_o creature_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v not_o a_o ordinary_a expression_n to_o call_v answ._n man_n creature_n in_o the_o scripture_n but_o the_o reason_n as_o i_o sinner_n conceive_v be_v this_o because_o the_o gentile_n be_v great_a sinner_n and_o the_o great_a of_o sinner_n and_o that_o you_o shall_v see_v clear_o in_o divers_a place_n as_o in_o mat._n 5._o where_o christ_n forbid_v we_o to_o take_v care_n for_o tomorrow_o what_o we_o shall_v eat_v and_o what_o we_o shall_v drink_v why_o for_o say_v he_o after_o these_o thing_n the_o gentile_n seek_v that_o be_v the_o worst_a of_o sinner_n and_o we_o must_v not_o be_v like_o they_o so_o in_o ephs._n 4._o the_o apostl_n will_v not_o have_v they_o darken_a in_o their_o understanding_n and_o walk_v as_o other_o gentile_n walk_v in_o the_o vanity_n of_o their_o mind_n so_o in_o 1_o pet._n 3._o it_o be_v a_o ordinary_a expression_n in_o scripture_n where_o great_a sinner_n be_v speak_v of_o either_o they_o be_v call_v gentile_n or_o else_o compare_v to_o gentile_n col._n 2._o be_v we_o not_o jew_n and_o not_o sinner_n of_o the_o gentile_n that_o be_v the_o gentile_n be_v the_o great_a sinner_n that_o be_v now_o they_o be_v the_o great_a sinner_n the_o lord_n call_v they_o creature_n and_o not_o man_n because_o it_o be_v a_o ordinary_a expression_n in_o scripture_n to_o call_v wicked_a people_n beast_n rather_o than_o man_n isaiah_n 11._o they_o be_v call_v bear_n and_o wolf'_n and_o tiger_n and_o fox_n and_o dog_n and_o bull_n etc._n etc._n so_o in_o hos._n 1._o compare_v with_o 1_o pet._n 3._o you_o that_o be_v not_o a_o people_n say_v peter_n have_v god_n make_v his_o people_n they_o be_v not_o a_o people_n god_n will_v not_o ordinary_o vouchsafe_v wicked_a man_n and_o woman_n the_o name_n of_o people_n but_o they_o be_v not_o a_o people_n what_o be_v they_o then_o they_o be_v dog_n for_o filth_n inesse_fw-la fox_n for_o cunning_a tiger_n for_o cruelty_n and_o bear_n and_o such_o kind_n of_o creature_n therefore_o the_o jew_n be_v call_v the_o people_n of_o the_o lord_n not_o only_o to_o distinguish_v they_o from_o other_o but_o they_o be_v call_v the_o people_n of_o god_n as_o we_o see_v in_o exodus_fw-la it_o be_v a_o privilege_n to_o be_v account_v a_o people_n first_o and_o then_o the_o people_n of_o the_o lord_n therefore_o the_o lord_n jesus_n because_o he_o will_v not_o have_v his_o disciple_n make_v any_o exception_n he_o call_v they_o creature_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v my_o disciple_n though_o they_o be_v so_o sinful_a that_o according_a to_o the_o ordinary_a scripture_n language_n you_o can_v call_v they_o man_n and_o woman_n or_o people_n yet_o they_o be_v creature_n and_o go_v preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o every_o creature_n go_v to_o the_o gentile_n the_o great_a sinner_n in_o the_o world_n who_o i_o will_v not_o vonchsafe_v to_o call_v a_o people_n yet_o they_o be_v creature_n go_v preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o they_o so_o that_o now_o i_o be_o come_v to_o the_o lesson_n which_o we_o be_v to_o observe_v and_o that_o be_v this_o that_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n especial_o after_o the_o resurrection_n of_o jesus_n christ_n contain_v nothing_o sinner_n but_o glad_a tiding_n and_o good_a news_n even_o to_o the_o worst_a of_o sinner_n creature_n that_o be_v so_o bad_a that_o they_o can_v not_o be_v call_v man_n and_o woman_n yet_o say_v christ_n go_v preach_v the_o gospel_n pure_a gospel_n gladtiding_n to_o they_o i_o say_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n if_o it_o be_v right_o dispense_v do_v not_o contain_v a_o tittle_n in_o it_o but_o perfect_a good_a news_n and_o glad_a tiding_n to_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o worst_a of_o sinner_n for_o this_o be_v the_o proper_a difference_n between_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n the_o law_n speak_v good_a news_n but_o only_o to_o the_o righteous_a gospel_n if_o thou_o do_v well_o thou_o shall_v be_v reward_v if_o thou_o fulfil_v the_o law_n thou_o shall_v have_v life_n the_o law_n speak_v well_o to_o a_o man_n quatinus_fw-la as_o a_o righteous_a man_n but_o the_o
fulfil_v his_o law_n and_o converse_v many_o year_n among_o man_n and_o that_o therein_o while_o he_o do_v so_o he_o give_v we_o many_o bless_a experiment_n of_o his_o love_n and_o mercy_n to_o poor_a sinner_n in_o heal_v the_o sick_a in_o give_v sight_n to_o the_o blind_a in_o raise_v the_o dead_a and_o while_o he_o converse_v among_o man_n he_o teach_v and_o discover_v in_o a_o great_a measure_n the_o mystery_n of_o his_o father_n counsel_n to_o we_o that_o else_o we_o can_v never_o have_v know_v and_o give_v we_o a_o holy_a pattern_n and_o example_n of_o life_n in_o humility_n and_o patience_n and_o delligence_n and_o prayer_n and_o thankfulness_n all_o these_o thing_n be_v good_a news_n and_o glad_a tiding_n to_o poor_a sinner_n every_o part_n of_o they_o then_o the_o gospel_n tell_v we_o that_o this_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n after_o he_o have_v walk_v among_o man_n for_o many_o year_n together_o we_o that_o then_o as_o a_o public_a person_n and_o second_o adam_n and_o our_o surety_n he_o do_v lay_v down_o his_o life_n and_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n but_o you_o will_v say_v where_o be_v the_o good_a news_n from_o that_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o poor_a sinner_n be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n they_o be_v make_v friend_n with_o god_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o poor_a sinner_n be_v redeem_v from_o all_o their_o enemy_n sin_n and_o death_n and_o wrath_n and_o curse_v and_o hell_n all_o these_o by_o the_o death_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v remove_v then_o the_o gospel_n tell_v you_o that_o jesus_n christ_n as_o he_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n so_o he_o rise_v again_o for_o our_o justification_n he_o rise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a the_o three_o day_n whereby_o poor_a sinner_n be_v assure_v that_o they_o be_v justify_v and_o free_v death_n from_o all_o their_o sin_n and_o whereby_o they_o shall_v rise_v to_o grace_v here_o and_o their_o soul_n and_o body_n shall_v rise_v to_o glory_v hereafter_o with_o christ_n and_o whereby_o they_o shall_v rise_v out_o of_o all_o affliction_n also_o in_o due_a time_n for_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o ground_n of_o our_o resurrection_n out_o of_o affliction_n in_o this_o world_n and_o every_o tittle_n of_o this_o be_v glad_a tiding_n and_o good_a news_n to_o poor_a sinner_n then_o the_o gospel_n tell_v you_o that_o after_o his_o resurrection_n he_o converse_v with_o his_o disciple_n and_o not_o with_o the_o discipl_n world_n and_o that_o he_o meet_v with_o his_o disciple_n from_o one_o mountain_n to_o another_o from_o one_o town_n to_o another_o for_o a_o few_o day_n after_o and_o there_o he_o make_v many_o precious_a prayer_n to_o his_o father_n for_o they_o and_o for_o all_o that_o shall_v believe_v in_o he_o and_o there_o he_o give_v they_o instruction_n and_o direction_n how_o they_o shall_v order_v the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o then_o you_o know_v the_o gospel_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o go_v heaven_n up_o into_o heaven_n and_o from_o heaven_n as_o soon_o as_o he_o come_v there_o he_o send_v his_o holy_a spirit_n to_o we_o to_o unite_v we_o to_o christ_n to_o be_v our_o intelligencer_n to_o make_v know_v the_o heart_n of_o christ_n to_o we_o to_o lead_v we_o into_o all_o truth_n to_o comfort_v we_o in_o all_o distress_n and_o to_o make_v intercession_n in_o we_o till_o we_o come_v to_o heaven_n where_o he_o be_v and_o the_o gospel_n tell_v we_o this_o good_a news_n that_o when_o he_o go_v to_o heaven_n he_o make_v way_n for_o poor_a sinner_n to_o we_o come_v there_o and_o that_o there_o he_o intercede_v for_o we_o and_o there_o succour_v we_o and_o pity_v we_o when_o we_o be_v in_o the_o flesh_n as_o he_o be_v once_o then_o the_o gospel_n tell_v we_o that_o in_o due_a time_n he_o will_v judgement_n come_v again_o from_o heaven_n as_o he_o go_v and_o bring_v a_o crown_n with_o he_o and_o actual_o subdue_v all_o his_o people_n enemy_n and_o give_v they_o the_o same_o glory_n that_o he_o have_v and_o they_o shall_v be_v one_o with_o god_n for_o ever_o as_o he_o be_v he_o will_v come_v and_o take_v poor_a sinner_n to_o himself_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v where_o he_o be_v and_o as_o he_o be_v world_n without_o end_n the_o gospel_n tell_v you_o moreover_o that_o all_o this_o love_n covenant_n and_o grace_n and_o mercy_n and_o salvation_n by_o jesus_n christ_n here_o and_o in_o heaven_n it_o be_v all_o make_v sure_a to_o we_o by_o a_o everlasting_a covenant_n sure_a and_o perfect_a in_o every_o point_n as_o david_n say_v and_o this_o covenant_n be_v seal_v with_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o testator_n the_o lord_n jesus_n that_o it_o may_v be_v sure_a and_o he_o have_v also_o send_v pastor_n and_o teacher_n to_o make_v know_v this_o gospel_n and_o he_o have_v give_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o baptism_n to_o confirm_v this_o gospel_n put_v all_o together_o and_o from_o the_o first_o to_o the_o last_o you_o shall_v not_o find_v in_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n if_o it_o be_v true_o and_o sound_o open_v any_o syllable_n but_o what_o be_v wholesome_a and_o comfortable_a and_o sweet_a and_o glad_a tiding_n to_o the_o worst_a sinner_n only_o to_o clear_v it_o more_o full_o to_o you_o there_o be_v some_o objection_n that_o you_o may_v make_v for_o belove_v it_o be_v a_o happy_a thing_n if_o we_o do_v full_o understand_v this_o lesson_n and_o full_o believe_v it_o therefore_o that_o it_o may_v sink_v into_o your_o heart_n i_o will_v tell_v you_o all_o that_o i_o know_v can_v be_v say_v against_o it_o one_o objection_n be_v you_o will_v say_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o thing_n gospel_n be_v not_o so_o very_o good_a because_o we_o poor_a sinner_n do_v not_o hear_v any_o thing_n in_o it_o for_o the_o body_n we_o do_v not_o hear_v any_o thing_n in_o it_o of_o honour_n and_o wealth_n we_o see_v people_n as_o poor_a after_o they_o receive_v christ_n as_o ever_o they_o be_v and_o it_o may_v be_v poor_a and_o if_o god_n do_v mingle_v in_o the_o gospel_n earthly_a thing_n with_o heavenly_a than_o it_o be_v good_a news_n worth_a the_o hear_n belove_a concerning_o that_o i_o answer_v but_o in_o two_o word_n
