be_v not_o to_o the_o swift_a nor_o the_o battle_n to_o the_o strong_a but_o that_o the_o great_a dependence_n be_v upon_o he_o that_o order_v all_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o counsel_n of_o his_o

every_o one_o for_o indeed_o so_o long_o as_o our_o religion_n and_o our_o life_n do_v so_o strange_o contradict_v and_o reproach_v one_o another_o and_o our_o practice_n be_v a_o continual_a

all_o the_o expense_n of_o man_n and_o money_n we_o have_v be_v at_o will_v certain_o not_o fail_v if_o we_o still_o continue_v it_o to_o accomplish_v his_o wrath_n upon_o we_o our_o cry_a sin_n

to_o conclude_v there_o be_v yet_o a_o three_o thing_n the_o text_n enjoin_v and_o which_o indeed_o the_o state_n of_o this_o world_n exact_v of_o all_o that_o will_v be_v easy_a in_o it_o and_o

unavoidable_a trouble_n and_o not_o quarrel_n and_o fret_v at_o what_o we_o can_v help_v till_o we_o leap_v out_o of_o the_o pan_n into_o the_o fire_n it_o have_v be_v indeed_o more_o glory_n to_o have_v suffer_v fire_n and_o faggot_n and_o confiscation_n of_o good_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o our_o religion_n than_o to_o bleed_v a_o little_a in_o our_o purse_n and_o suffer_v the_o mortification_n of_o some_o of_o our_o excess_n but_o we_o may_v just_o fear_v that_o there_o be_v very_o few_o so_o true_o christian_n and_o magnanimous_a as_o to_o have_v undergo_v such_o trial_n and_o have_v gain_v that_o glory_n that_o be_v offend_v at_o much_o more_o tolerable_a affliction_n now_o although_o therefore_o we_o can_v grow_v rich_a so_o fast_o as_o we_o will_v nor_o spend_v so_o much_o upon_o luxury_n and_o riot_n as_o we_o use_v to_o do_v let_v we_o be_v content_a and_o if_o heaven_n can_v find_v out_o any_o or_o make_v the_o present_a a_o effectual_a mean_n to_o subtract_v the_o

money_n in_o our_o purse_n but_o final_o since_o very_o few_o be_v like_a to_o be_v so_o easy_a in_o the_o world_n as_o they_o will_v be_v let_v we_o all_o remember_v that_o the_o world_n be_v real_o a_o wilderness_n and_o be_v never_o design_v for_o a_o paradise_n that_o it_o be_v great_a folly_n to_o stand_v wrestle_v and_o contend_v with_o every_o thing_n that_o justle_v we_o but_o that_o he_o
