great_a lord_n and_o master_n of_o this_o family_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o that_o riches_n do_v not_o come_v to_o man_n either_o by_o fortune_n or_o chance_n or_o by_o their_o own_o industry_n or_o the_o love_n of_o their_o friend_n or_o any_o like_a secondary_a mean_n as_o the_o high_a cause_n but_o all_o be_v from_o the_o dispensation_n and_o appointment_n of_o god_n who_o be_v the_o ruler_n of_o all_o thing_n make_v rich_a and_o make_v poor_a and_o set_v up_o one_o and_o pull_v down_o another_o wherefore_o all_o man_n be_v but_o his_o servant_n and_o steward_n to_o who_o he_o please_v to_o commit_v more_o or_o less_o as_o himself_o see_v fit_a and_o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o it_o must_v needs_o avail_v much_o to_o the_o continuation_n and_o increase_n of_o any_o man_n wealth_n that_o he_o be_v find_v a_o good_a steward_n of_o the_o thing_n commit_v to_o he_o by_o his_o master_n for_o who_o will_v a_o man_n rather_o intrust_v with_o his_o estate_n than_o those_o who_o long_a experience_n have_v approve_v to_o be_v faithful_a now_o to_o communicate_v our_o substance_n to_o the_o poor_a with_o a_o large_a and_o enlarge_a heart_n and_o hand_n this_o be_v to_o do_v the_o office_n of_o a_o good_a and_o faithful_a steward_n as_o saint_n peter_n teach_v in_o so_o many_o word_n 1_o pet._n 4.9_o 10._o use_v hospitality_n one_o to_o another_o that_o be_v one_o act_n of_o bounty_n to_o be_v practise_v special_o towards_o the_o poor_a and_o then_o he_o add_v this_o reason_n as_o every_o man_n have_v receive_v the_o gift_n so_o minister_v the_o same_o one_o unto_o another_o as_o good_a steward_n of_o the_o manifold_a grace_n of_o god_n do_v you_o not_o perceive_v that_o the_o due_a discharge_n of_o our_o stewardship_n stand_v in_o minister_a unto_o another_o the_o gift_n that_o god_n have_v give_v we_o wherefore_o he_o in_o who_o the_o lord_n do_v find_v this_o fidelity_n shall_v never_o be_v put_v out_o of_o his_o office_n but_o rather_o the_o lord_n will_v deal_v with_o he_o as_o in_o the_o parable_n the_o king_n do_v with_o his_o good_a &_o faithful_a servant_n to_o who_o he_o give_v this_o praise_n say_v well_o do_v &_o add_v this_o reward_n thou_o have_v be_v faithful_a in_o little_a be_v ruler_n over_o much_o faithfullnes_n in_o use_v what_o we_o have_v you_o see_v to_o be_v the_o best_a mean_n of_o be_v entrust_v with_o more_o &_o consequent_o of_o be_v free_v from_o want_n now_o liberal_a distribution_n to_o the_o poor_a be_v a_o be_v faithful_a in_o what_o we_o have_v this_o therefore_o if_o any_o thing_n will_v cause_v the_o lord_n to_o give_v we_o more_o and_o more_o and_o never_o to_o wax_v weary_a of_o give_v to_o we_o if_o we_o will_v give_v unto_o other_o for_o his_o sake_n and_o according_a to_o his_o

and_o add_v no_o sorrow_n therewith_o that_o be_v give_v a_o comfortable_a and_o delightful_a increase_n of_o our_o estate_n even_o such_o as_o be_v worth_a have_v and_o be_v true_o beneficial_a for_o to_o have_v a_o great_a estate_n as_o a_o great_a burden_n upon_o our_o shoulder_n and_o to_o be_v but_o a_o horse_n to_o carry_v a_o great_a load_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n through_o the_o world_n this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v a_o master_n but_o a_o slave_n of_o riches_n now_o such_o comfortable_a wealth_n do_v not_o spring_n from_o man_n wit_n or_o pain_n but_o from_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n if_o you_o give_v credit_n to_o solomon_n for_o if_o he_o vouchsafe_v not_o his_o blessing_n as_o the_o watchman_n watch_v and_o the_o builder_n build_v in_o vain_a so_o do_v the_o husbandman_n

bless_v you_o and_o in_o what_o in_o all_o your_o work_n and_o affair_n yea_o and_o all_o you_o put_v your_o hand_n unto_o certain_o god_n will_v never_o be_v find_v a_o promise-breaker_n what_o he_o say_v with_o his_o hand_n as_o solomon_n profess_v in_o his_o prayer_n that_o his_o own_o experience_n have_v teach_v he_o so_o we_o conclude_v our_o reason_n evident_o and_o ungainesayable_o unless_o a_o man_n will_v deny_v god_n power_n and_o truth_n the_o efficacy_n of_o his_o blessing_n what_o will_v sure_o procure_v god_n blessing_n upon_o a_o man_n affair_n and_o estate_n that_o will_v save_v

to_o be_v free_v from_o want_n a_o three_o reason_n i_o will_v add_v reas_n 3_o 19.17_o it_o be_v a_o lend_n to_o god_n pro._n 19.17_o to_o lend_v unto_o almighty_a god_n will_v sure_o procure_v
