god_n can_v no_o more_o be_v hurt_v by_o all_o the_o power_n of_o wickedness_n than_o by_o the_o noise_n of_o a_o fly_v wing_n or_o the_o chirp_n of_o a_o sparrow_n brethren_n do_v well_o for_o

for_o this_o be_v god_n word_n the_o other_o ought_v to_o be_v according_a to_o it_o that_o although_o in_o itself_o it_o be_v but_o the_o word_n of_o man_n yet_o by_o the_o purpose_n truth_n and_o

to_o the_o people_n to_o get_v christ_n to_o be_v unite_v to_o christ_n and_o thing_n of_o the_o like_a unlimited_a signification_n but_o tell_v they_o in_o every_o duty_n what_o be_v the_o measure_n what_o circumstance_n what_o instrument_n and_o what_o be_v the_o particular_a minute_n mean_v of_o every_o general_n advise_v for_o general_n not_o explicate_v do_v but_o fill_v the_o people_n head_n

and_o inclination_n of_o the_o people_n be_v the_o measure_n of_o your_o doctrine_n but_o let_v your_o doctrine_n be_v the_o measure_n of_o their_o persuasion_n let_v they_o know_v from_o you_o what_o they_o ought_v to_o do_v but_o if_o you_o learn_v from_o they_o what_o you_o ought_v to_o teach_v you_o will_v give_v but_o a_o very_a ill_a account_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n of_o the_o

and_o design_n to_o preach_v nothing_o before_o magistrate_n but_o the_o duty_n of_o their_o people_n and_o their_o own_o eminency_n so_o it_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o mutiny_n to_o preach_v to_o the_o

his_o parish_n and_o urge_v their_o duty_n st._n john_n the_o baptist_n tell_v the_o soldier_n what_o the_o soldier_n shall_v do_v but_o trouble_v not_o their_o head_n with_o what_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n 7._o in_o the_o reproof_n of_o sin_n be_v as_o particular_a as_o you_o please_v and_o spare_v no_o man_n sin_n but_o meddle_v with_o no_o man_n person_n neither_o

of_o repentance_n a_o instrument_n of_o revenge_n and_o so_o do_v he_o shall_v exasperate_v the_o man_n but_o never_o amend_v the_o sinner_n 8._o let_v the_o business_n of_o you_o sermon_n be_v to_o preach_v holy_a life_n obedience_n peace_n love_n among_o neighbour_n hearty_a love_n to_o live_v as_o the_o old_a christian_n do_v and_o the_o new_a shall_v to_o do_v hurt_v to_o no_o man_n to_o do_v

the_o lust_n of_o the_o tongue_n be_v mortify_v let_v every_o minister_n in_o his_o charge_n be_v frequent_a and_o severe_a against_o slanderer_n detractor_n and_o backbiter_n for_o the_o crime_n of_o
