this_o condition_n that_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o pay_v our_o debt_n full_o and_o whole_o and_o therefore_o whosoever_o will_v now_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o pay_v god_n usurp_v the_o office_n of_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v a_o most_o abominable_a abuse_n and_o yet_o the_o papist_n build_v their_o salvation_n hereon_o but_o for_o all_o this_o they_o cavil_v and_o say_v that_o although_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v obtain_v pardon_n as_o well_o for_o the_o sin_n as_o for_o the_o punishment_n thereof_o yet_o notwithstanding_o that_o this_o be_v reserve_v although_o they_o manifest_o gainsay_v themselves_o for_o on_o the_o other_o side_n they_o say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v not_o merit_v for_o we_o but_o be_v the_o occasion_n of_o merit_n now_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v they_o will_v say_v that_o we_o be_v by_o nature_n so_o ill_a and_o so_o exceed_o wicked_a as_o that_o we_o can_v do_v nothing_o which_o god_n will_v accept_v but_o say_v that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n go_v before_o he_o give_v we_o the_o occasion_n of_o merit_n &_o this_o they_o call_v the_o first_o merit_n so_o that_o they_o give_v unto_o he_o some_o little_a gobet_n or_o small_a portion_n and_o to_o ourselves_o the_o chief_a now_o if_o it_o be_v so_o that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v only_o merit_v the_o occasion_n of_o merit_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o we_o must_v by_o he_o come_v to_o heaven_n it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v always_o bind_v unto_o god_n as_o well_o for_o the_o punishment_n as_o for_o the_o sin_n and_o this_o be_v a_o enormous_a abomination_n when_o as_o the_o papist_n will_v presume_v thus_o to_o discharge_v themselves_o before_o god_n with_o their_o satisfaction_n and_o beside_o as_o one_o mischief_n draw_v on_o another_o even_o so_o thrust_v they_o themselves_o into_o a_o most_o wearisome_a labyrinth_n for_o they_o know_v well_o enough_o that_o if_o we_o strain_v ourselves_o to_o do_v a_o hundred_o time_n more_o than_o we_o be_v able_a yet_o can_v we_o in_o no_o wise_a content_n &_o satisfy_v god_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o why_o so_o because_o we_o come_v so_o short_a in_o do_v that_o we_o shall_v as_o be_v most_o fearful_a and_o david_n say_v what_o man_n be_v he_o that_o know_v his_o sin_n 13.12_o psal_n 13.12_o and_o therefore_o although_o we_o shall_v take_v never_o so_o much_o pain_n to_o make_v satisfaction_n yet_o shall_v the_o papist_n be_v enforce_v to_o say_v that_o we_o be_v never_o able_a to_o come_v to_o the_o end_n of_o they_o yet_o be_v there_o also_o a_o three_o error_n among_o they_o to_o wit_n their_o indulgence_n &_o pardon_n of_o full_a remission_n for_o the_o pardon_v of_o their_o sin_n that_o will_v buy_v they_o and_o yet_o they_o think_v it_o not_o enough_o that_o they_o have_v these_o indulgence_n but_o must_v also_o have_v their_o purgatory_n to_o make_v up_o their_o mouth_n withal_o for_o altogether_o so_o as_o they_o be_v so_o mesh_v in_o error_n as_o that_o they_o can_v tell_v how_o to_o wind_v themselves_o out_o of_o they_o for_o see_v they_o have_v all_o at_o once_o stray_v from_o the_o pure_a simplicity_n of_o the_o holy_a scripure_a the_o devil_n have_v so_o possess_v &_o entrap_v they_o within_o such_o net_n and_o snare_n as_o that_o they_o can_v never_o get_v out_o of_o they_o wherefore_o we_o must_v so_o much_o the_o more_fw-it diligent_o harken_v unto_o this_o doctrine_n which_o exclude_v all_o satisfaction_n &_o send_v we_o to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o find_v that_o in_o he_o which_o be_v want_v in_o us._n moreover_o we_o be_v to_o note_v for_o the_o better_a understanding_n of_o this_o point_n what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v save_v by_o the_o mere_a grace_n of_o god_n and_o for_o faith_n to_o be_v impute_v unto_o we_o for_o righteousness_n and_o that_o can_v be_v understand_v until_o we_o lie_v at_o the_o point_n of_o death_n for_o when_o as_o the_o papist_n speak_v of_o their_o merit_n satisfaction_n and_o indulgence_n they_o may_v prattle_v and_o jangle_n as_o it_o please_v they_o but_o when_o hypocrite_n shall_v be_v so_o drunken_a and_o hard_a heart_a against_o god_n as_o to_o be_v make_v to_o believe_v marvel_n and_o wonder_n all_o their_o life_n long_o the_o devil_n soon_o after_o remove_v they_o with_o a_o witness_n when_o as_o they_o must_v in_o good_a earnest_n come_v before_o the_o judge_n for_o we_o see_v how_o blockish_a we_o be_v and_o so_o long_o as_o it_o please_v god_n to_o grant_v we_o life_n we_o imagine_v he_o to_o be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o please_v ourselves_o &_o transfigure_v he_o as_o we_o lust_n but_o when_o we_o must_v depart_v this_o life_n and_o come_v before_o his_o judgement_n seat_n at_o who_o the_o angel_n themselves_o be_v afeard_a and_o tremble_v alas_o how_o shall_v we_o most_o miserable_a mortal_a creature_n do_v in_o this_o case_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o speak_v of_o this_o certainty_n of_o faith_n the_o question_n be_v not_o of_o our_o entrance_n into_o the_o church_n of_o god_n only_o but_o our_o hope_n must_v be_v invincible_a to_o fight_v against_o all_o the_o temptation_n of_o satan_n but_o especial_o when_o we_o must_v come_v to_o answer_v before_o god_n we_o must_v then_o stand_v firm_a and_o sure_a against_o all_o the_o fear_n wherewith_o we_o may_v be_v stir_v &_o drive_v unto_o and_o this_o be_v no_o speculative_a doctrine_n but_o a_o doctrine_n of_o practice_n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n must_v instruct_v we_o but_o no_o long_o then_o until_o such_o time_n as_o god_n have_v in_o very_a deed_n assign_v we_o a_o day_n and_o our_o conscience_n bind_v to_o appear_v to_o hear_v the_o sentence_n of_o the_o heavenly_a judge_n no_o doubt_n of_o it_o we_o will_v make_v but_o a_o sport_n in_o reason_v of_o this_o matter_n but_o the_o practice_n thereof_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v will_v teach_v we_o another_o manner_n of_o lesson_n what_o it_o be_v that_o be_v to_o say_v we_o must_v whole_o fly_v unto_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o understand_v that_o he_o be_v our_o advocate_n we_o may_v assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n will_v not_o enter_v into_o judgement_n with_o us._n and_o why_o so_o because_o we_o be_v pardon_v not_o according_a to_o the_o draught_n of_o our_o indictment_n but_o by_o put_v away_o all_o our_o sin_n &_o iniquity_n and_o this_o be_v it_o which_o we_o be_v to_o remember_v concern_v this_o point_n it_o shall_v seem_v now_o that_o we_o can_v be_v whole_o righteous_a if_o our_o righteousness_n consist_v only_o of_o say_v for_o our_o faith_n as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v will_v always_o be_v weak_a so_o long_o as_o we_o live_v here_o and_o therefore_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v full_o righteous_a before_o god_n for_o the_o effect_n can_v be_v above_o the_o cause_n for_o if_o we_o have_v but_o half_a a_o sun_n we_o shall_v not_o have_v so_o much_o light_n as_o we_o have_v and_o therefore_o we_o must_v have_v a_o whole_a sun_n that_o the_o beam_n thereof_o may_v spread_v itself_o all_o the_o world_n over_o wherefore_o when_o faith_n be_v thus_o weak_a in_o we_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o we_o be_v but_o partly_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n and_o so_o contrariwise_o that_o he_o like_v we_o not_o howbeit_o we_o be_v here_o to_o note_v that_o we_o be_v not_o justify_v by_o the_o power_n and_o virtue_n of_o faith_n neither_o must_v we_o think_v it_o to_o be_v so_o perfect_a as_o to_o say_v that_o our_o salvation_n be_v perfect_a thereby_o for_o to_o speak_v proper_o it_o be_v god_n alone_o that_o justifi_v we_o as_o out_o of_o the_o eight_o of_o the_o roman_n we_o have_v hear_v and_o this_o be_v that_o justification_n whereof_o saint_n john_n speak_v in_o his_o three_o chapter_n to_o wit_n that_o god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n as_o that_o he_o spare_v not_o his_o only_o beget_v son_n to_o the_o end_n that_o so_o many_o as_o shall_v believe_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o shall_v pass_v from_o death_n to_o life_n thus_o we_o see_v to_o speak_v proper_o that_o it_o be_v god_n alone_a which_o justifi_v we_o agree_v with_o that_o say_n of_o saint_n paul_n in_o the_o five_o chpiter_n of_o the_o second_o to_o the_o corinth_n say_v that_o god_n appear_v in_o jesus_n christ_n 5.19.21_o ●_o cor._n 5.19.21_o in_o reconcile_a the_o world_n unto_o himself_o not_o impute_v their_o sin_n unto_o they_o because_o that_o jesus_n christ_n who_o know_v no_o sin_n be_v make_v sin_n for_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v make_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o here_o we_o see_v that_o saint_n paul_n in_o the_o first_o place_n show_v how_o god_n justifi_v we_o that_o be_v that_o he_o impute_v not_o unto_o we_o

live_a god_n in_o all_o this_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v he_o show_v very_o excellent_a virtue_n but_o moses_n add_v another_o sacrifice_n which_o be_v far_o great_a and_o much_o more_o exquisite_a that_o be_v abraham_n be_v enforce_v to_o kill_v his_o son_n yea_o even_o his_o own_o only_a son_n now_o this_o be_v a_o obedience_n unto_o god_n beyond_o all_o measure_n surpass_v any_o man_n power_n to_o perform_v although_o in_o very_a deed_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v his_o both_o in_o life_n and_o death_n but_o that_o which_o be_v here_o command_v abraham_n to_o do_v be_v far_o beyond_o all_o the_o rest_n for_o the_o matter_n in_o question_n be_v not_o only_o of_o abraham_n his_o full_a obedience_n towards_o god_n in_o forsake_v himself_o and_o in_o have_v his_o son_n to_o be_v take_v from_o he_o which_o be_v give_v he_o and_o so_o to_o be_v quite_o and_o clean_o rid_v of_o he_o when_o as_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o take_v he_o from_o he_o and_o to_o suffer_v all_o this_o patient_o this_o i_o say_v be_v not_o the_o question_n but_o the_o matter_n be_v that_o he_o must_v kill_v he_o with_o his_o own_o hand_n now_o this_o be_v such_o a_o hard_a and_o strange_a thing_n as_o that_o the_o very_a hear_n of_o it_o once_o speak_v off_o be_v able_a to_o astonish_v and_o kill_v the_o very_a heart_n of_o any_o man_n it_o be_v not_o then_o without_o cause_n that_o moses_n from_o the_o nineteenth_o chapter_n after_o he_o have_v heretofore_o speak_v of_o the_o life_n of_o abraham_n set_v down_o this_o act_n 12.1_o gen._n 12.1_o and_o say_v that_o after_o these_o thing_n god_n again_o tempt_v he_o now_o it_o be_v a_o very_a great_a temptation_n when_o as_o god_n take_v he_o from_o his_o father_n house_n for_o so_o the_o word_n import_v when_o he_o say_v get_v thou_o out_o of_o thy_o father_n house_n and_o from_o all_o thy_o kinsfolk_n and_o from_o the_o place_n where_o thou_o be_v bear_v and_o i_o pray_v you_o where_o can_v he_o find_v a_o better_a place_n to_o dwell_v in_o this_o be_v the_o country_n which_o i_o mean_v to_o bring_v thou_o unto_o a_o country_n forsooth_o which_o he_o never_o know_v and_o therefore_o he_o must_v be_v there_o like_o a_o feather_n cast_v into_o the_o wind_n not_o know_v which_o way_n to_o wind_v himself_o this_o i_o say_v be_v a_o grievous_a temptation_n to_o abraham_n when_o as_o he_o must_v needs_o go_v whither_o god_n call_v he_o not_o know_v whither_o and_o yet_o nevertheless_o this_o be_v as_o it_o be_v his_o a_o b_o c._n thus_o we_o see_v how_o god_n begin_v when_o as_o he_o mean_v to_o teach_v in_o his_o school_n and_o he_o be_v no_o soon_o come_v into_o the_o land_n but_o that_o he_o be_v eftsoon_o drive_v out_o thereof_o as_o it_o be_v with_o famine_n and_o his_o wife_n also_o take_v from_o he_o and_o the_o next_o time_n also_o we_o see_v that_o he_o be_v vex_v in_o every_o place_n and_o can_v have_v no_o rest_n any_o where_o for_o there_o be_v not_o any_o one_o within_o all_o the_o country_n which_o do_v not_o set_v himself_o against_o he_o and_o yet_o he_o patient_o endure_v and_o suffer_v all_o these_o thing_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o do_v not_o once_o murmur_v against_o god_n but_o endure_v all_o the_o trouble_n and_o affliction_n that_o be_v lay_v upon_o he_o without_o discouragement_n be_v far_o unlike_a unto_o those_o that_o be_v so_o delicate_a and_o effeminate_a as_o that_o if_o god_n deal_v not_o with_o they_o to_o their_o own_o good_a like_n they_o will_v clout_n it_o up_o together_o and_o quite_o and_o clean_o forget_v their_o obedience_n towards_o his_o majesty_n and_o although_o abraham_n be_v this_o rough_o handle_v yet_o conunue_v he_o the_o course_n he_o begin_v but_o how_o long_o suffer_v he_o all_o these_o trial_n he_o be_v not_o only_o thus_o deal_v withal_o three_o or_o four_o year_n together_o but_o be_v so_o tumble_v and_o toss_v as_o that_o when_o he_o have_v pass_v twenty_o thirty_o and_o forty_o year_n in_o that_o land_n he_o be_v to_o begin_v again_o to_o abide_v worse_a storm_n than_o he_o have_v at_o any_o time_n before_o bid_v as_o to_o be_v enforce_v to_o forsake_v the_o love_n of_o his_o elder_a son_n and_o to_o be_v utter_o spoil_v of_o he_o which_o be_v to_o he_o more_o grief_n and_o sorrow_v than_o a_o very_a kind_n of_o death_n itself_o after_o he_o have_v sustain_v these_o great_a and_o most_o grievous_a temptation_n that_o god_n have_v promise_v to_o give_v he_o the_o land_n yet_o be_v he_o so_o bait_v as_o if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v worthy_a once_o to_o have_v set_v his_o foot_n in_o any_o place_n of_o the_o land_n god_n have_v also_o promise_v he_o seed_n 15.3_o gen._n 15.3_o but_o that_o come_v not_o neither_o until_o such_o time_n as_o he_o be_v four_o score_n year_n old_a and_o his_o wife_n barren_a so_o as_o it_o seem_v unto_o they_o that_o this_o promise_n be_v but_o a_o very_a mockery_n and_o when_o he_o be_v a_o hundred_o year_n old_a he_o have_v isaak_n but_o ishmael_n must_v be_v thrust_v out_o of_o the_o door_n and_o be_v banish_v as_o heretofore_o we_o have_v hear_v if_o we_o can_v well_o savour_n and_o taste_v these_o temptation_n without_o doubt_n we_o shall_v be_v wonderful_o amaze_v to_o see_v abraham_n have_v such_o a_o powerful_a and_o constant_a faith_n to_o fight_v against_o such_o assault_n and_o to_o overcome_v they_o now_o then_o when_o it_o be_v say_v after_o these_o thing_n it_o be_v to_o show_v that_o god_n mean_v to_o set_v before_o we_o in_o the_o person_n of_o abraham_n such_o a_o spectacle_n as_o that_o whensoever_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o fight_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v hurtful_a unto_o we_o to_o follow_v his_o step_n neither_o yet_o think_v it_o strange_a or_o any_o new_a thing_n to_o conform_v and_o fashion_v ourselves_o like_a unto_o he_o who_o be_v father_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n but_o yet_o this_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o although_o every_o man_n will_v thorough_o look_v unto_o the_o temptation_n which_o he_o be_v to_o suffer_v yet_o shall_v he_o not_o be_v able_a to_o see_v the_o hundred_o part_n of_o that_o which_o we_o see_v in_o abraham_n and_o therefore_o this_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o as_o god_n have_v bountiful_o bestow_v the_o gift_n and_o grace_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n upon_o he_o so_o also_o mean_v he_o to_o make_v a_o through_o trial_n of_o his_o faith_n for_o god_n will_v not_o have_v his_o gift_n lie_v a_o rust_n and_o be_v unprofitable_a in_o we_o but_o will_v deal_v with_o every_o man_n according_a to_o that_o measure_n of_o his_o grace_n which_o he_o have_v vouchsafe_v us._n for_o he_o prepare_v we_o to_o endure_v they_o or_o else_o we_o be_v never_o able_a to_o undergo_v they_o nor_o once_o move_v one_o finger_n to_o do_v well_o except_o the_o lord_n do_v so_o dispose_v the_o same_o and_o give_v we_o the_o power_n to_o do_v it_o and_o therefore_o whensoever_o he_o put_v we_o to_o the_o combat_n he_o bestow_v the_o grace_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n upon_o us._n now_o forsomuch_o as_o abraham_n have_v great_a perfection_n in_o comparison_n of_o we_o according_a as_o we_o be_v man_n see_v how_o god_n also_o prove_v he_o with_o such_o strange_a sort_n of_o trial_n as_o we_o be_v never_o able_a to_o come_v never_o unto_o howbeit_o so_o much_o the_o less_o excuse_n have_v we_o for_o our_o idleness_n coldness_n and_o wantonness_n if_o we_o follow_v not_o at_o least_o in_o some_o measure_n our_o father_n abraham_n and_o although_o the_o constancy_n of_o our_o faith_n be_v not_o equal_a unto_o he_o yet_o if_o we_o endeavour_n not_o ourselves_o to_o follow_v he_o some_o what_o aloof_o as_o we_o say_v according_a to_o our_o ability_n and_o infirmity_n without_o doubt_n we_o shall_v be_v without_o all_o excuse_n so_o then_o we_o have_v from_o hence_o to_o gather_v that_o abraham_n be_v all_o his_o life_n long_o torment_v both_o in_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o yet_o when_o it_o be_v come_v even_o to_o the_o up-cast_n as_o we_o say_v god_n will_v needs_o prove_v he_o without_o all_o comparison_n more_o lively_a than_o ever_o at_o any_o time_n before_o he_o have_v do_v so_o that_o it_o have_v be_v able_a to_o have_v madehim_v a_o hundred_o thousand_o time_n to_o have_v dispair_v have_v he_o not_o in_o most_o wondered_a manner_n confirm_v he_o therein_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n to_o what_o end_n be_v this_o matter_n of_o abraham_n recite_v we_o abraham_n the_o benefit_n that_o every_o one_o shall_v make_v of_o these_o temptation_n of_o abraham_n it_o be_v not_o because_o we_o shall_v wonder_n at_o his_o virtue_n and_o magnify_v and_o commend_v his_o so_o great_a power_n and_o strength_n but_o to_o the_o end_n to_o
