the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n it_o be_v very_o observable_a how_o all_o the_o apostle_n prefer_v the_o duty_n of_o prayer_n before_o preach_v itself_o i_o have_v pick_v out_o these_o few_o text_n

thus_o to_o the_o first_o we_o say_v that_o though_o god_n do_v visit_v our_o sin_n upon_o we_o by_o the_o turk_n jew_n heritick_n etc._n etc._n yet_o we_o be_v not_o forbid_v to_o make_v our_o own_o

lay_v in_o any_o store_n against_o famine_n any_o medicine_n against_o disease_n or_o to_o fly_v from_o the_o plague_n but_o we_o know_v that_o god_n so_o visit_v we_o as_o not_o to_o forsake_v we_o 88_o psal_n 88_o for_o so_o the_o psalmist_n tell_v we_o i_o will_v visit_v their_o iniquity_n with_o rod_n and_o their_o sin_n with_o scourge_n but_o i_o will_v not_o take_v my_o mercy_n quite_o away_o etc._n etc._n and_o as_o to_o our_o fight_v with_o prayer_n we_o do_v confess_v it_o the_o duty_n of_o every_o good_a soldier_n to_o pray_v frequent_o yet_o to_o take_v his_o arm_n in_o hand_n likewise_o with_o joshua_n gedion_n david_n and_o the_o maccabee_n for_o we_o find_v that_o moses_n pray_v but_o joshuah_n fight_v against_o amalech_n 17._o exo._n 17._o so_o let_v those_o that_o can_v sight_n pray_v and_o those_o that_o fight_n pray_v too_o so_o they_o may_v obtain_v doubtless_o the_o easy_a victory_n to_o the_o second_o we_o grant_v that_o our_o saviour_n command_v we_o not_o to_o resist_v evil_a but_o that_o command_v sure_o be_v not_o absolute_a that_o we_o shall_v never_o resist_v evil_a but_o so_o often_o as_o we_o be_v strike_v on_o one_o side_n to_o offer_v the_o other_o also_o for_o then_o neither_o christ_n nor_o his_o apostle_n have_v be_v so_o perfect_a for_o christ_n when_o he_o be_v strike_v on_o one_o side_n before_o the_o chief_a priest_n do_v not_o turn_v other_o but_o rather_o resist_v by_o a_o rebuke_n if_o i_o have_v speak_v well_o 23.3_o joh._n 18.23_o act_n 23.3_o why_o strike_v thou_o i_o if_o evil_n bear_v witness_n of_o the_o

word_n of_o our_o saviour_n must_v be_v understand_v that_o we_o resist_v not_o evil_a that_o be_v that_o we_o seek_v not_o our_o own_o private_a revenge_n but_o shall_v be_v rather_o ready_a to_o

of_o your_o black_a coat_n what_o soever_o and_o this_o be_v likewise_o affirm_v by_o john_n who_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o love_v we_o and_o wash_v we_o from_o our_o sin_n in_o his_o blood_n and_o make_v we_o a_o kingdom_n and_o priest_n to_o god_n his_o father_n 12.13_o 1._o cor._n 12.13_o 10_o then_o the_o apostle_n paul_n tell_v we_o that_o by_o one_o spirit_n we_o be_v all_o baptise_a

for_o my_o part_n find_v as_o little_a aggreeable_a to_o scripture_n for_o first_o our_o saviour_n to_o discountenance_v that_o kind_n of_o devotion_n 7._o matt._n 7._o tell_v we_o plain_o that_o

at_o all_o than_o the_o lord_n will_v be_v in_o a_o manner_n necessitate_v and_o constrain_v to_o his_o action_n by_o those_o prayer_n but_o that_o we_o know_v he_o can_v be_v over_o and_o above_o

more_o express_o yet_o we_o have_v it_o in_o the_o same_o gospel_n 26.52_o mat._n 26.52_o then_o say_v jesus_n unto_o he_o put_v up_o again_o thy_o sword_n into_o his_o place_n for_o all_o they_o
