indeed_o of_o the_o world_n never_o stir_v nor_o move_v god_n because_o he_o know_v well_o enough_o how_o he_o can_v blast_v every_o attempt_n yet_o because_o he_o know_v that_o his_o people_n have_v some_o flesh_n remain_v still_o in_o they_o the_o appearance_n of_o a_o tumult_n and_o the_o opposition_n of_o the_o gospel_n may_v peradventure_o put_v they_o into_o a_o affright_n the_o lord_n therefore_o endeavour_v to_o hearten_v his_o own_o people_n against_o the_o fright_n that_o they_o may_v take_v in_o regard_n of_o the_o outward_a appearance_n of_o opposition_n and_o this_o he_o do_v in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n fear_v thou_o not_o for_o i_o be_o with_o thou_o be_v not_o dismay_v for_o i_o be_o thy_o god_n now_o lest_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o mistake_n to_o who_o the_o lord_n direct_v this_o speech_n for_o the_o intent_n of_o the_o lord_n may_v be_v mistake_v in_o the_o extent_n of_o the_o people_n to_o who_o he_o speak_v and_o therefore_o in_o the_o 8._o and_o 9_o verse_n the_o lord_n show_v to_o who_o he_o speak_v such_o encouragement_n but_o thou_o israel_n art_n my_o servant_n and_o jacob_n who_o i_o have_v choose_v the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n my_o friend_n object_n why_o some_o will_v say_v it_o seem_v then_o that_o in_o this_o text_n god_n speak_v of_o comfort_n and_o encouragement_n be_v confine_v only_o unto_o the_o people_n of_o the_o jew_n that_o be_v the_o child_n of_o jacob_n and_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n and_o therefore_o what_o ever_o comfort_n there_o be_v in_o the_o text_n there_o be_v little_a comfort_n belong_v unto_o we_o answ_n consider_v the_o nine_o verse_n and_o then_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o though_o god_n speak_v of_o jacob_n israel_n and_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o speak_v of_o the_o seed_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n but_o according_a to_o the_o spirit_n for_o in_o the_o nine_o verse_n you_o read_v the_o word_n thus_o thou_o who_o i_o have_v choose_v and_o take_v from_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n that_o jacob_n then_o and_o israel_n to_o who_o the_o lord_n speak_v these_o comfortable_a word_n be_v the_o jacob_n and_o israel_n that_o be_v call_v from_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n now_o if_o you_o will_v know_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n the_o prophet_n will_v tell_v you_o in_o chap._n 43._o of_o isaiah_n and_o the_o 5,6,7_o verse_n fear_v not_o for_o i_o be_o with_o thou_o i_o will_v bring_v thy_o seed_n from_o the_o east_n and_o gather_v thou_o from_o the_o west_n i_o will_v say_v to_o the_o north_n give_v up_o and_o to_o the_o south_n keep_v not_o back_o bring_v my_o son_n from_o far_o and_o my_o daughter_n from_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n even_o every_o one_o that_o be_v call_v by_o my_o name_n as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v this_o israel_n and_o jacob_n to_o who_o the_o lord_n speak_v not_o to_o fear_v be_v a_o people_n gather_v from_o the_o east_n and_o from_o the_o north_n and_o from_o the_o south_n and_o from_o the_o west_n now_o the_o seed_n of_o jacob_n natural_o consider_v be_v not_o of_o that_o extent_n as_o to_o overspread_v the_o world_n every_o way_n however_o the_o last_o clause_n that_o it_o be_v even_o every_o one_o that_o be_v call_v by_o his_o name_n put_v it_o out_o of_o doubt_n that_o it_o extend_v also_o to_o we_o gentile_n this_o i_o note_v belove_v that_o so_o we_o may_v not_o only_o have_v a_o guess_n that_o the_o comfortable_a language_n frequent_o mention_v by_o the_o prophet_n belong_v unto_o we_o as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n but_o that_o we_o may_v see_v that_o it_o be_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o have_v reveal_v it_o himself_o that_o it_o do_v indeed_o extend_v itself_o unto_o we_o for_o by_o the_o way_n solid_a comfort_n will_v not_o be_v raise_v upon_o mere_a guess_n or_o presumption_n take_v thing_n for_o grant_v without_o the_o sense_n of_o a_o good_a foundation_n to_o bear_v up_o such_o comfort_n all_o the_o comfort_n people_n have_v when_o they_o run_v upon_o guess_n be_v only_o abide_v with_o they_o so_o long_o as_o there_o be_v not_o administer_v a_o occasion_n of_o discomfort_n but_o all_o the_o comfort_n in_o the_o world_n will_v vanish_v that_o have_v not_o some_o firm_a foundation_n when_o they_o be_v strike_v at_o and_o when_o some_o tempest_n beat_v against_o they_o to_o cast_v they_o down_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v good_a to_o be_v establish_v in_o every_o truth_n wherein_o comfort_n may_v be_v receive_v now_o from_o this_o passage_n as_o it_o have_v reference_n to_o the_o coherence_n i_o may_v observe_v unto_o you_o that_o when_o ever_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v set_v up_o in_o freshness_n and_o glory_n and_o beauty_n he_o do_v always_o meet_v with_o strong_a opposition_n i_o say_v the_o

gospel_n when_o ever_o it_o break_v out_o you_o may_v see_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o belove_v especial_o since_o christ_n personal_a come_n at_o all_o time_n no_o soon_o do_v the_o apostle_n begin_v to_o preach_v christ_n as_o raise_v from_o the_o dead_a but_o a_o madness_n and_o a_o fury_n grow_v upon_o those_o that_o think_v themselves_o in_o authority_n as_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n their_o sword_n be_v present_o draw_v their_o prison_n set_v open_a to_o clap_v up_o those_o that_o preach_v christ_n herod_n kill_v one_o imprison_v another_o intend_v to_o kill_v he_o too_o belove_a i_o need_v say_v little_a of_o this_o your_o own_o experience_n may_v now_o be_v a_o sufficient_a witness_n of_o that_o which_o perhaps_o you_o fear_v long_o before_o now_o be_v come_v the_o time_n

the_o way_n as_o it_o be_v a_o truth_n in_o general_a so_o be_v it_o in_o particular_a case_n too_o when_o ever_o we_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n devote_v ourselves_o only_o to_o set_v up_o

from_o the_o coherence_n you_o may_v observe_v as_o mad_a and_o desperate_a as_o the_o world_n be_v and_o the_o enemy_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o fight_v and_o make_v opposition_n against_o christ_n yet_o no_o weapon_n form_v in_o this_o kind_n shall_v prosper_v the_o lord_n have_v raise_v he_o up_o say_v the_o text_n and_o he_o shall_v rule_v over_o the_o heathen_a and_o they_o shall_v be_v as_o
