far_o from_o reckon_v it_o to_o be_v a_o sin_n that_o they_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o duty_n now_o whence_o be_v this_o but_o through_o ignorance_n sometime_o indeed_o it_o be_v through_o wilful_a ignorance_n but_o most_o through_o gross_a ignorance_n and_o our_o saviour_n give_v this_o reason_n these_o thing_n shall_v they_o do_v because_o they_o know_v neither_o the_o father_n nor_o i_o they_o know_v we_o not_o they_o do_v not_o know_v who_o be_v the_o people_n of_o god_n they_o will_v reckon_v you_o to_o be_v the_o base_a spawn_n of_o hell_n the_o child_n of_o the_o devil_n though_o themselves_o be_v so_o yet_o they_o will_v reckon_v you_o to_o be_v so_o they_o reckon_v upon_o you_o to_o be_v the_o scumm_n and_o off-scowring_a of_o the_o world_n now_o because_o they_o know_v not_o i_o nor_o my_o father_n therefore_o they_o will_v do_v these_o thing_n and_o they_o reckon_v upon_o it_o that_o they_o do_v god_n very_o good_a service_n and_o this_o be_v the_o case_n of_o paul_n i_o very_o think_v say_v he_o that_o i_o ought_v to_o do_v many_o thing_n contrary_a to_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n say_v he_o i_o think_v it_o be_v my_o duty_n to_o cry_v down_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o to_o cry_v down_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n and_o to_o cry_v down_o the_o professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n i_o very_o think_v with_o myself_o that_o i_o ought_v to_o do_v these_o thing_n i_o do_v not_o look_v upon_o these_o thing_n to_o be_v sin_n say_v he_o i_o be_v a_o persecuter_n and_o a_o blasphemer_n and_o injurious_a i_o but_o i_o do_v not_o know_v that_o it_o be_v persecution_n and_o blasphemy_n and_o injury_n i_o do_v these_o thing_n ignorant_o say_v he_o it_o be_v for_o want_v of_o knowledge_n because_o i_o be_v not_o lay_v in_o with_o knowledge_n as_o i_o shall_v have_v be_v that_o i_o do_v these_o thing_n so_o that_o we_o have_v need_v then_o to_o grow_v in_o knowledge_n for_o the_o more_o we_o grow_v in_o knowledge_n the_o more_o able_a shall_v we_o be_v to_o make_v a_o judgement_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o on_o the_o contrary_a a_o judgement_n of_o grace_n the_o more_o we_o grow_v in_o knowledge_n the_o better_a shall_v we_o be_v to_o make_v a_o judgement_n of_o grace_n alas_o how_o many_o be_v there_o that_o through_o want_n of_o knowledge_n not_o be_v due_o inform_v and_o improve_v in_o their_o knowledge_n they_o do_v run_v upon_o most_o gross_a and_o dangerous_a mistake_n take_v that_o to_o be_v save_v grace_n which_o indeed_o be_v nothing_o so_o and_o that_o to_o be_v holiness_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o very_a show_n and_o resemblance_n of_o holiness_n that_o to_o be_v love_n of_o god_n and_o of_o christ_n and_o faith_n in_o god_n which_o be_v nothing_o so_o o_o the_o dangerous_a mistake_n which_o poor_a soul_n do_v run_v upon_o they_o do_v very_o think_v that_o they_o do_v believe_v and_o that_o they_o have_v repent_v and_o that_o they_o trust_v in_o god_n and_o bear_v a_o love_n to_o christ_n and_o that_o they_o bear_v a_o love_n to_o godliness_n they_o be_v strong_a in_o that_o persuasion_n and_o yet_o they_o run_v upon_o dangerous_a mistake_n and_o all_o because_o there_o be_v a_o deficiency_n in_o their_o knowledge_n they_o be_v not_o so_o due_o improve_v in_o knowledge_n as_o that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o make_v a_o judgement_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o grace_n and_o so_o for_o duty_n we_o have_v need_v to_o endeavour_v a_o growth_n in_o knowledge_n that_o so_o we_o may_v be_v the_o better_a able_a to_o judge_v of_o duty_n when_o they_o be_v duty_n perform_v according_a to_o god_n alas_o how_o many_o think_v they_o perform_v duty_n in_o most_o acceptable_a manner_n to_o god_n when_o they_o do_v no_o other_o than_o offer_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o fool_n they_o think_v they_o pray_v and_o pray_v please_v and_o hear_v and_o hear_v in_o a_o right_a manner_n come_v to_o the_o table_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o think_v they_o do_v excellent_a good_a service_n to_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o which_o he_o will_v accept_v of_o when_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o they_o do_v profane_v his_o name_n and_o offer_v indignity_n to_o he_o they_o wound_v he_o again_o they_o crucify_v he_o they_o become_v guilty_a of_o his_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n and_o yet_o all_o the_o while_o they_o think_v that_o they_o quit_v themselves_o in_o a_o very_a fair_a commendable_a and_o comely_a manner_n and_o all_o because_o of_o a_o want_n of_o knowledge_n they_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o of_o godliness_n and_o of_o gospel-worship_n they_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n therefore_o in_o that_o regard_n there_o be_v great_a reason_n that_o christian_n shall_v endeavour_v a_o growth_n in_o knowledge_n 4._o i_o add_v yet_o further_o well_o it_o may_v be_v require_v of_o believer_n that_o they_o grow_v in_o knowledge_n because_o by_o their_o growth_n in_o knowledge_n they_o shall_v be_v the_o better_a able_a to_o manage_v their_o affection_n and_o passion_n alas_o brethren_n we_o may_v know_v and_o it_o may_v be_v do_v in_o sad_a experience_n what_o unruly_a thing_n affection_n and_o passion_n be_v and_o how_o apt_a like_o untamed_a horse_n to_o ride_v over_o hedge_n and_o ditch_n and_o to_o be_v keep_v within_o no_o due_a bound_n and_o why_o this_o for_o want_v of_o knowledge_n because_o there_o be_v not_o the_o bridle_n of_o knowledge_n and_o understanding_n to_o rein_v the_o affection_n and_o passion_n as_o now_o to_o instance_n alas_o how_o many_o be_v there_o that_o be_v inordinate_a in_o their_o love_n in_o their_o love_n to_o creature_n to_o child_n husband_n wife_n and_o all_o for_o want_v of_o knowledge_n because_o they_o do_v not_o know_v the_o true_a state_n of_o these_o thing_n and_o how_o their_o love_n ought_v to_o be_v manage_v and_o so_o for_o fear_n o_o how_o apt_a be_v our_o fear_n to_o go_v beyond_o its_o bound_n and_o our_o desire_n how_o apt_a be_v we_o how_o irregular_a and_o inordinate_a in_o they_o and_o so_o in_o our_o zeal_n zeal_n like_o fire_n that_o be_v very_o useful_a while_n it_o be_v keep_v in_o its_o place_n but_o when_o it_o come_v to_o break_v up_o to_o the_o top_n of_o the_o house_n that_o threaten_v fire_v of_o all_o now_o all_o this_o be_v for_o want_v of_o the_o due_a knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o state_n of_o thing_n about_o which_o our_o affection_n be_v exercise_v and_o employ_v and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v find_v this_o that_o god_n do_v require_v in_o his_o word_n that_o our_o affection_n shall_v be_v manage_v with_o knowledge_n and_o judgement_n i_o tell_v you_o brethren_n the_o best_a love_n be_v a_o judicious_a love_n a_o love_n with_o knowledge_n and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v find_v in_o 1_o phil._n the_o apostle_n pray_v and_o require_v that_o their_o love_n may_v ab●…nd_v it_o all_o knowledge_n and_o in_o all_o judgement_n why_o it_o be_v nothing_o for_o a_o man_n to_o have_v a_o ignorant_a blind_a love_n a_o injudicious_a love_n god_n do_v not_o value_v such_o a_o love_n it_o be_v the_o know_a love_n the_o well_o create_a love_n the_o love_n that_o a_o man_n can_v give_v a_o reason_n of_o the_o judicious_a love_n that_o be_v the_o love_n which_o god_n value_v that_o your_o love_n may_v abound_v in_o all_o knowledge_n and_o so_o likewise_o zeal_n the_o apostle_n speak_v concern_v his_o brethren_n they_o have_v a_o zeal_n of_o god_n o_o they_o be_v mighty_a hot_a and_o zealous_a but_o say_v he_o their_o zeal_n be_v not_o according_a to_o knowledge_n and_o so_o for_o desire_n true_o by_o have_v a_o well_o improve_v knowledge_n a_o knowledge_n that_o be_v well_o grow_v we_o shall_v be_v the_o better_a able_a to_o manage_v these_o affection_n of_o love_n zeal_n delight_n desire_n fear_v and_o joy_n all_o the_o affection_n they_o will_v be_v the_o better_o order_v in_o case_n that_o our_o knowledge_n be_v well_o improve_v and_o that_o be_v another_o reason_n 5._o again_o well_o may_v it_o be_v require_v of_o christian_n that_o they_o grow_v in_o knowledge_n because_o by_o their_o grow_v in_o knowledge_n they_o shall_v be_v the_o better_a able_a for_o to_o order_v their_o word_n speech_n and_o discourse_n o_o what_o irregularity_n be_v there_o in_o the_o tongue_n the_o tongue_n be_v a_o unruly_a evil_n full_a of_o deadly_a poison_n ay_o but_o from_o hence_o it_o come_v very_o much_o it_o be_v for_o want_n of_o a_o well_o digest_v knowledge_n apt_a we_o be_v to_o sin_n and_o offend_v in_o wanton_a speech_n lustful_a lascivious_a speech_n and_o by_o language_n of_o swear_v and_o the_o like_a o_o the_o manifold_a evil_n that_o break_v out_o from_o the_o tongue_n and_o true_o much_o what_o upon_o that_o

in_o eph._n 3._o what_o the_o apostle_n be_v pray_v on_o their_o behalf_n that_o they_o may_v be_v able_a to_o comprehend_v with_o all_o saint_n the_o height_n and_o depth_n and_o breadth_n and_o

of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n when_o the_o apostle_n paul_n in_o 1_o tim._n 1._o have_v be_v make_v mention_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o come_v to_o express_v his_o knowledge_n and_o sense_n of_o that_o grace_n according_a to_o what_o you_o have_v express_v and_o hold_v forth_o in_o that_o chapter_n say_v he_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n be_v exceed_v abundant_a with_o faith_n and_o love_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o so_o he_o go_v on_o this_o be_v a_o faithful_a say_n and_o worthy_a of_o all_o acceptation_n that_o jesus_n christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o save_v sinner_n of_o who_o i_o be_o chief_a howbeit_o for_o this_o cause_n i_o obtain_v mercy_n that_o in_o i_o first_o jesus_n christ_n may_v show_v forth_o all_o long_a suffering_n for_o a_o pattern_n to_o they_o which_o shall_v hereafter_o believe_v on_o he_o to_o everlasting_a life_n paul_n have_v be_v thus_o upon_o the_o serious_a meditation_n of_o this_o

have_v but_o make_v mention_n of_o christ_n and_o speak_v something_o concern_v christ_n and_o give_v some_o account_n of_o his_o knowledge_n of_o the_o mystery_n concern_v christ_n mark_v how_o he_o

and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n o_o it_o will_v enlarge_v our_o heart_n as_o unto_o prayer_n so_o unto_o thanksgiving_n and_o blessing_n of_o god_n i_o add_v yet_o further_o o_o this_o knowledge_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v a_o knowledge_n that_o christian_n shall_v endeavour_v to_o grow_v and_o advance_v in_o for_o it_o be_v by_o great_a growth_n in_o this_o

god_n for_o preach_v work_n o_o consider_v now_o that_o the_o knowledge_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n that_o knowledge_n that_o be_v to_o be_v have_v of_o he_o well_o advance_v
