day_n come_v but_o what_o must_v we_o do_v when_o we_o come_v to_o be_v young_a man_n what_o be_v their_o mean_n and_o duty_n david_n declare_v in_o psal_n 119.9_o wherewith_o shall_v a_o young_a man_n cleanse_v his_o way_n by_o take_v heed_n to_o thy_o word_n etc._n etc._n thy_o word_n i_o have_v hide_v in_o my_o heart_n and_o do_v meditate_v on_o thy_o word_n that_o i_o may_v not_o sin_v against_o thou_o so_o now_o for_o all_o young_a man_n to_o take_v heed_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o hide_v it_o in_o their_o heart_n and_o to_o meditate_v upon_o it_o for_o the_o word_n be_v call_v a_o hammer_n and_o a_o sword_n and_o a_o fire_n to_o hammer_v down_o and_o cut_v down_o and_o burn_v up_o that_o which_o will_v defile_v they_o in_o their_o way_n word_n and_o heart_n and_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n which_o he_o preach_v be_v in_o their_o heart_n and_o mouth_n to_o obey_v it_o and_o to_o do_v it_o rom._n 10._o and_o the_o engraft_a word_n be_v able_a to_o save_v their_o soul_n james_n say_v and_o peter_n say_v that_o they_o be_v to_o feed_v upon_o the_o sincere_a milk_n of_o the_o word_n but_o they_o which_o be_v hearer_n of_o the_o word_n and_o not_o doer_n of_o the_o word_n deceive_v their_o own_o soul_n and_o christ_n say_v to_o his_o disciple_n now_o you_o be_v clean_a through_o the_o word_n etc._n etc._n so_o this_o word_n will_v keep_v the_o way_n and_o the_o heart_n of_o young_a man_n clean_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v a_o sanctify_a word_n a_o reconcile_a word_n and_o christ_n tell_v the_o jew_n his_o word_n have_v no_o place_n in_o they_o and_o again_o he_o tell_v the_o unclean_a jew_n you_o have_v not_o his_o word_n to_o wit_n the_o word_n of_o god_n abide_v in_o you_o so_o these_o jew_n make_v a_o great_a profession_n of_o the_o scripture_n but_o have_v not_o the_o word_n of_o god_n abide_v in_o they_o john_n 5._o then_o they_o be_v not_o like_a to_o be_v make_v clean_o by_o it_o and_o christ_n say_v sanctify_v they_o through_o thy_o word_n thy_o word_n be_v truth_n to_o wit_n his_o disciple_n and_o believer_n and_o again_o christ_n say_v i_o have_v give_v they_o thy_o word_n and_o they_o have_v keep_v thy_o word_n namely_o his_o disciple_n to_o wit_n the_o word_n of_o god_n john_n 17._o now_o here_o you_o may_v see_v the_o disciple_n keep_v the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o mean_n to_o keep_v their_o heart_n way_n and_o word_n clean_o but_o the_o jew_n priest_n scribes_z and_o pharisee_n that_o make_v a_o great_a outward_a profession_n of_o the_o scripture_n who_o way_n be_v unclean_a and_o mouth_n full_a of_o foul_a unclean_a word_n against_o christ_n christ_n tell_v they_o that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v not_o abide_v in_o they_o and_o therefore_o though_o they_o have_v the_o scripture_n and_o make_v a_o outward_a profession_n of_o they_o like_o the_o professor_n of_o our_o age_n and_o other_o who_o go_v from_o the_o mean_n the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o their_o heart_n to_o keep_v their_o way_n and_o lip_n clean_a and_o to_o sanctify_v they_o therefore_o they_o plead_v for_o a_o body_n of_o death_n to_o the_o ârave_a and_o a_o purgatory_n when_o they_o be_v dead_a who_o live_v in_o a_o profession_n of_o the_o letter_n without_o the_o word_n and_o john_n say_v i_o have_v write_v unto_o you_o young_a man_n because_o you_o be_v strong_a and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n abide_v in_o you_o and_o you_o have_v overcome_v the_o wicked_a one_o viz._n the_o devil_n by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v before_o the_o devil_n be_v so_o here_o you_o may_v see_v what_o be_v the_o mean_n by_o which_o the_o young_a man_n way_n be_v cleanse_v and_o sanctify_a
