the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o by_o that_o spirit_n as_o you_o will_v see_v life_n and_o if_o you_o put_v it_o out_o the_o lord_n shall_v make_v you_o as_o senseless_a as_o a_o beast_n they_o cry_v both_o but_o pilate_n cry_v judge_v you_o he_o they_o cry_v crucify_v he_o pilate_n cry_v i_o find_v no_o fault_n in_o he_o worthy_a of_o death_n what_o ever_o be_v pilate_n part_n who_o be_v a_o judge_n what_o ever_o be_v the_o part_n of_o the_o jew_n the_o accuser_n the_o lord_n have_v his_o part_n also_o in_o it_o and_o he_o appoint_v it_o by_o his_o eternal_a decree_n the_o hour_n be_v come_v and_o he_o will_v have_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n to_o die_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o he_o will_v be_v glorify_v in_o his_o death_n at_o this_o hour_n and_o he_o will_v not_o have_v he_o to_o die_v as_o one_o worthy_a of_o death_n in_o himself_o but_o like_o a_o innocent_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o world_n now_o look_v to_o this_o wisdom_n that_o his_o innocence_n shall_v appear_v he_o will_v have_v the_o judge_n protest_v his_o innocence_n oftentimes_o before_o he_o shall_v die_v on_o the_o other_o part_n he_o will_v have_v the_o conscience_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n scrape_v out_o and_o he_o will_v have_v they_o get_v his_o blood_n if_o the_o high_a priest_n conscience_n have_v be_v waken_v jesus_n have_v not_o die_v at_o this_o time_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o shall_v die_v he_o harden_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o accuser_n when_o any_o innocent_a man_n suffer_v and_o chief_a for_o christ_n the_o lord_n have_v dispose_v the_o world_n so_o that_o he_o have_v make_v some_o to_o testify_v of_o the_o innocence_n of_o the_o martyr_n and_o some_o have_v he_o harden_v to_o seek_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o martyr_n that_o he_o may_v be_v glorify_v look_v to_o daniel_n darius_n have_v a_o conscience_n of_o his_o innocence_n but_o the_o prince_n have_v harden_v heart_n daniel_n 6.1_o look_v when_o paul_n be_v accuse_v the_o roman_a governor_n lysias_n felix_n and_o festus_n have_v a_o conscience_n of_o the_o innocence_n of_o paul_n but_o the_o high_a priest_n persecute_v he_o to_o the_o death_n when_o a_o malefactor_n suffere_n the_o lord_n will_v not_o use_v this_o manner_n of_o do_v he_o will_v not_o have_v the_o judge_n to_o testify_v the_o man_n innocence_n where_o there_o be_v none_o but_o he_o will_v let_v he_o die_v and_o suffer_v like_o a_o murderer_n a_o oppressor_n or_o a_o blasphemer_n as_o he_o be_v in_o very_a deed_n he_o will_v have_v judge_n accuser_n and_o all_o man_n conspire_v together_o to_o take_v away_o such_o pest_n from_o the_o earth_n therefore_o if_o there_o be_v no_o more_o but_o this_o if_o we_o must_v die_v it_o shall_v move_v we_o to_o die_v in_o a_o good_a cause_n and_o the_o best_a cause_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o jesus_n christ_n take_v heed_n that_o thou_o suffer_v not_o like_o a_o nocent_a and_o guilty_a person_n but_o like_o a_o innocent_a so_o thy_o death_n shall_v be_v glorious_a it_o be_v a_o pain_n to_o die_v and_o a_o great_a pain_n to_o die_v for_o a_o evil_a cause_n now_o the_o priest_n answer_v we_o have_v a_o law_n and_o according_a to_o our_o law_n he_o merit_v the_o death_n they_o challenge_v not_o a_o law_n to_o crucify_v he_o or_o any_o power_n to_o punish_v he_o capitallie_o for_o all_o power_n of_o this_o be_v take_v away_o from_o they_o by_o the_o roman_n yet_o for_o all_o this_o they_o forget_v not_o the_o right_a of_o their_o law_n that_o the_o blasphemer_n shall_v die_v the_o death_n according_a to_o this_o law_n they_o affirm_v he_o worthy_a of_o death_n so_o brethren_n what_o ever_o pilate_n can_v do_v or_o say_v to_o mitigate_v and_o to_o assuage_v their_o malice_n speak_v what_o he_o can_v speak_v they_o continue_v in_o hardness_n against_o christ_n look_v what_o blind_v they_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o shall_v make_v they_o to_o see_v it_o it_o blind_v they_o and_o they_o use_v it_o to_o their_o blind_n all_o the_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n yea_o the_o best_a thing_n the_o very_a word_n of_o god_n serve_v to_o wicked_a man_n for_o nothing_o else_o but_o for_o their_o far_a induration_n the_o more_o they_o see_v the_o blind_a they_o be_v they_o will_v read_v but_o the_o more_o they_o read_v the_o blind_a be_v they_o for_o why_o they_o abuse_v the_o word_n they_o will_v not_o make_v it_o a_o rule_n to_o direct_v their_o affection_n and_o action_n but_o they_o abuse_v it_o to_o their_o fantasy_n &_o make_v a_o slave_n of_o it_o look_v to_o the_o papist_n this_o day_n they_o abuse_v the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n they_o make_v they_o to_o serve_v their_o appetite_n they_o interpret_v expone_fw-la and_o apply_v the_o word_n as_o they_o please_v they_o make_v the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o author_n of_o their_o lie_n i_o affirm_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v nothing_o to_o the_o papist_n but_o blind_a they_o it_o have_v be_v good_a for_o they_o that_o they_o have_v never_o see_v hear_v nor_o read_v the_o scripture_n of_o god_n write_v on_o say_v on_o this_o shall_v be_v verify_v one_o day_n but_o let_v we_o consider_v their_o reason_n the_o law_n ordain_v that_o the_o blasphemer_n shall_v die_v the_o death_n but_o so_o it_o be_v that_o this_o man_n be_v a_o blasphemer_n for_o he_o have_v make_v himself_o the_o son_n of_o god_n therefore_o he_o shall_v die_v y_o e_fw-la death_n if_o you_o look_v the_o ground_n &_o the_o general_a no_o man_n can_v find_v fault_n with_o it_o for_o it_o be_v set_v down_o in_o y_z e_z law_n levit_fw-la 24.14_o but_o come_v to_o the_o application_n where_o they_o subsume_v jesus_n be_v a_o blasphemer_n there_o they_o fail_v for_o jesus_n be_v be_v and_o shall_v be_v that_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n &_o therefore_o the_o conclusion_n be_v false_a that_o he_o ought_v to_o die_v the_o death_n so_o you_o see_v the_o general_n be_v true_a but_o the_o assumption_n and_o the_o conclusion_n be_v a_o lie_n in_o wicked_a man_n you_o shall_v find_v this_o that_o no_o man_n will_v lay_v down_o fair_a generalle_n out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n than_o they_o no_o man_n will_v do_v that_o better_o but_o come_v on_o to_o the_o application_n there_o they_o go_v astraye_v they_o apply_v not_o right_a but_o they_o apply_v either_o to_o this_o affection_n or_o that_o as_o for_o example_n the_o murderer_n shall_v die_v the_o death_n if_o there_o be_v a_o hatred_n in_o they_o against_o the_o man_n they_o will_v apply_v it_o unto_o he_o but_o by_o the_o contrary_a if_o he_o be_v a_o kinsman_n or_o a_o friend_n they_o will_v say_v this_o man_n be_v no_o murderer_n howbeit_o he_o be_v as_o great_a a_o murderer_n as_o barrabas_n be_v and_o therefore_o he_o shall_v not_o die_v take_v heed_n to_o thy_o heart_n and_o think_v it_o not_o enough_o to_o know_v the_o general_a to_o be_v true_a but_o take_v heed_n to_o thy_o heart_n and_o to_o the_o affection_n thereof_o that_o they_o may_v be_v sanctify_v and_o chief_o thou_o who_o be_v a_o judge_n look_v that_o thy_o heart_n be_v free_a of_o hatred_n and_o of_o perverse_a love_n or_o else_o thy_o love_n thy_o hatred_n and_o thy_o perverse_a affection_n shall_v be_v poison_n to_o thou_o and_o shall_v blind_v thou_o and_o shall_v make_v thou_o pronounce_v false_a judgement_n for_o what_o avail_v knowledge_n what_o avail_v it_o thou_o to_o have_v a_o great_a light_n in_o thy_o head_n either_o through_o nature_n or_o yet_o through_o the_o word_n of_o god_n if_o thou_o want_v reformation_n and_o sanctification_n to_o thy_o affection_n all_o be_v for_o nothing_o true_a christianity_n stand_v in_o the_o reformation_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o without_o this_o all_o the_o knowledge_n in_o the_o

a_o conscience_n before_o now_o he_o have_v a_o great_a conscience_n even_o as_o whatsoever_o pilate_n can_v speak_v to_o the_o high_a priest_n do_v no_o more_o but_o harden_v they_o on_o so_o all_o
