that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o he_o say_v that_o his_o flesh_n be_v meat_n indeed_o and_o his_o blood_n drink_v in_o deed_n and_o therefore_o we_o see_v why_o the_o holy_a table_n

let_v not_o we_o doubt_v when_o jesus_n christ_n bid_v we_o to_o this_o table_n although_o we_o can_v perceive_v nothing_o else_o but_o bread_n &_o wine_n but_o that_o he_o very_o dwell_v in_o we_o

the_o end_n we_o may_v glorify_v he_o therefore_o as_o he_o be_v worthy_a the_o
second_o that_o we_o shall_v abhor_v our_o sin_n as_o we_o ought_v and_o to_o be_v true_o ashamed_a to_o humble_v ourselves_o before_o the_o majesty_n of_o our_o god._n the_o third_o that_o we_o may_v

be_v in_o love_n with_o this_o inheritance_n which_o be_v so_o dear_o purchase_v for_o us._n and_o here_o we_o see_v whereon_o we_o must_v cast_v our_o eye_n and_o bestow_v all_o our_o sense_n when_o it_o be_v tell_v we_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v redeem_v we_o from_o everlasting_a death_n and_o purchase_v for_o we_o everlasting_a life_n we_o must_v therefore_o in_o the_o first_o place_n learn_v to_o render_v unto_o god_n the_o praise_n due_a unto_o he_o now_o to_o say_v true_o he_o may_v if_o he_o have_v please_v have_v deliver_v we_o from_o the_o bottomless_a depth_n of_o death_n after_o a_o other_o sort_n but_o his_o good_a will_n be_v large_o to_o bestow_v and_o pour_v upon_o we_o the_o treasure_n of_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n when_o as_o he_o spare_v not_o his_o only_a son_n and_o our_o lord_n jesus_n will_v herein_o give_v we_o a_o excellent_a pawn_n of_o his_o wonderful_a care_n towards_o we_o when_o as_o he_o offer_v himself_o willing_o to_o death_n for_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v touch_v to_o the_o quick_a nor_o inflame_v to_o praise_v our_o god_n without_o we_o on_o the_o other_o side_n do_v examine_v our_o estate_n and_o be_v as_o it_o be_v throw_v down_o into_o the_o bottomless_a pit_n of_o hell_n know_v what_o a_o thing_n it_o be_v to_o have_v provoke_v his_o wrath_n and_o to_o become_v our_o mortal_a enemy_n have_v he_o as_o a_o terrible_a and_o fearful_a judge_n so_o that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n better_o that_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o all_o the_o creature_n have_v conspire_v against_o we_o then_o that_o we_o shall_v once_o come_v near_o his_o majesty_n so_o long_o as_o he_o be_v against_o us._n wherefore_o it_o be_v very_o meet_a that_o sinner_n shall_v be_v wound_v with_o the_o feel_v and_o conceive_v of_o their_o sin_n that_o they_o may_v know_v themselves_o to_o be_v most_o miserable_a and_o fear_v their_o estate_n to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v thereby_o know_v how_o great_o they_o be_v behold_v and_o bind_v unto_o god_n in_o that_o he_o have_v compassion_n upon_o they_o and_o see_v they_o in_o a_o desperate_a case_n have_v very_o good_a will_n to_o help_v they_o without_o regard_n of_o any_o their_o worthiness_n but_o only_o for_o their_o misery_n sake_n and_o so_o also_o be_v it_o as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v because_o we_o be_v too_o too_o much_o entangle_v here_o below_o and_o when_o as_o god_n call_v we_o unto_o he_o our_o mind_n and_o affection_n so_o keep_v we_o back_o as_o that_o we_o have_v need_n to_o make_v much_o of_o the_o heavenly_a life_n as_o it_o be_v worthy_a and_o know_v with_o how_o dear_a a_o price_n it_o be_v purchase_v for_o us._n and_o here_o we_o see_v why_o it_o be_v tell_v we_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n do_v not_o only_o mean_a to_o suffer_v death_n and_o offer_v himself_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o appease_v the_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n his_o father_n but_o also_o to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o may_v true_o and_o indeed_o be_v our_o pledge_n he_o refuse_v not_o to_o abide_v the_o anguish_n and_o grief_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o all_o such_o as_o in_o conscience_n be_v touch_v and_o feel_v themselves_o guilty_a of_o everlasting_a death_n and_o condemnation_n before_o god_n let_v we_o then_o hear_v right_o note_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v not_o content_v to_o offer_v up_o his_o flesh_n and_o blood_n and_o yield_v himself_o unto_o death_n but_o will_v withal_o appear_v before_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o god_n in_o the_o name_n and_o person_n of_o all_o sinner_n ready_a there_o to_o be_v condemn_v and_o that_o because_o he_o bear_v our_o burden_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o be_v ashamed_a see_v the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v submit_v himself_o to_o such_o a_o infirmity_n neither_o be_v it_o without_o cause_n that_o saint_n paul_n exhort_v we_o not_o to_o be_v ashamed_a of_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o cross_n albeit_o it_o be_v to_o some_o foolishness_n and_o a_o offence_n to_o many_o for_o the_o more_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v humble_v we_o see_v thereby_o that_o the_o offence_n for_o the_o which_o we_o be_v in_o arrearage_n and_o behind_o with_o god_n can_v not_o be_v abolish_v without_o great_a extremity_n and_o in_o deed_n we_o know_v that_o he_o be_v make_v weak_a that_o we_o may_v be_v make_v strong_a by_o his_o power_n and_o beside_o he_o will_v abide_v all_o our_o suffering_n sin_n except_v to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v be_v ready_a at_o this_o day_n to_o help_v us._n for_o if_o he_o have_v not_o feel_v in_o his_o own_o person_n the_o fear_n doubt_n and_o torment_n which_o we_o endure_v he_o will_v not_o be_v so_o incline_v to_o be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o as_o he_o be_v we_o say_v that_o he_o who_o know_v not_o what_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n mean_v will_v never_o be_v stir_v up_o to_o have_v compassion_n upon_o those_o that_o feel_v it_o because_o they_o have_v always_o take_v their_o ease_n and_o live_v in_o pleasure_n now_o it_o be_v true_a that_o although_o god_n in_o his_o own_o nature_n suffer_v not_o any_o of_o our_o passion_n yet_o cease_v he_o not_o for_o all_o that_o to_o be_v courteous_a unto_o we_o but_o that_o be_v because_o

&_o that_o we_o may_v come_v the_o bold_o unto_o he_o &_o have_v a_o more_o familiar_a access_n the_o apostle_n say_v 2.10_o hebr._n 2.10_o that_o he_o will_v for_o the_o same_o cause_n be_v tempt_v even_o as_o we_o be_v so_o then_o we_o have_v to_o observe_v in_o this_o text_n which_o we_o have_v read_v that_o when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n be_v come_v into_o this_o village_n of_o gethsamene_n &_o namely_o into_o the_o mount_n olivet_n it_o be_v to_o offer_v himself_o willing_o to_o death_n and_o herein_o his_o will_n be_v to_o be_v discharge_v of_o the_o office_n &_o charge_n that_o be_v

5.19_o rom._n 5.19_o for_o this_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o cloak_n to_o cover_v all_o our_o sin_n &_o offence_n so_o that_o the_o thing_n that_o may_v hinder_v we_o for_o the_o obtain_n of_o grace_n

yet_o without_o doubt_n his_o affection_n shall_v come_v nothing_o nigh_o unto_o god_n and_o yet_o not_o be_v corrupt_a as_o if_o adam_n be_v not_o thus_o pervert_v as_o he_o be_v but_o have_v

must_v not_o stay_v simple_o upon_o word_n neither_o yet_o upon_o the_o manner_n &_o fashion_n of_o they_o but_o look_v to_o the_o worthiness_n of_o the_o cause_n for_o they_o which_o may_v at_o all_o

it_o be_v say_v that_o cayphas_n say_v unto_o jesus_n christ_n what_o be_v the_o matter_n answer_v thou_o nothing_o see_v thou_o not_o that_o these_o man_n witness_v against_o thou_o and_o yet_o jesus_n christ_n all_o this_o while_n hold_v his_o peace_n &_o put_v up_o all_o these_o revile_v and_o slanderous_a word_n now_o it_o may_v be_v think_v a_o strange_a thing_n the_o jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v very_o just_a occasion_n to_o disprove_v such_o a_o false_a testimony_n do_v not_o once_o gain_v say_v it_o howbeit_o as_o i_o have_v before_o say_v and_o as_o hereafter_o shall_v more_o at_o large_a appear_v jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o they_o to_o defend_v his_o doctrine_n as_o before_o he_o have_v do_v and_o therefore_o we_o be_v wise_o to_o distinguish_v of_o all_o the_o circumstance_n for_o after_o jesus_n christ_n have_v fast_v in_o the_o wilderness_n god_n his_o father_n send_v he_o to_o puplish_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n now_o we_o see_v that_o all_o that_o time_n he_o always_o mighty_o defend_v the_o doctrine_n whereof_o he_o be_v a_o minister_n and_o we_o see_v also_o how_o he_o set_v himfelfe_n against_o whatsoever_o may_v be_v say_v to_o the_o contrary_n and_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o he_o discharge_v his_o duty_n because_o he_o be_v appoint_v and_o send_v to_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n but_o here_o be_v one_o special_a regard_n to_o be_v have_v and_o that_o be_v this_o that_o he_o must_v be_v the_o redeemer_n of_o the_o world_n and_o be_v condemn_v not_o because_o he_o preach_v the_o gospel_n but_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v throw_v down_o into_o the_o bottomless_a depth_n &_o suffer_v for_o our_o cause_n by_o reason_n he_o bear_v as_o it_o be_v in_o his_o own_o person_n all_o the_o curse_n and_o transgression_n of_o those_o who_o deserve_v everlasting_a death_n wherefore_o because_o jesus_n christ_n take_v upon_o he_o this_o office_n to_o bear_v the_o burden_n of_o all_o such_o as_o have_v deadly_o offend_v the_o majesty_n of_o god_n that_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o he_o hold_v his_o peace_n and_o so_o let_v we_o note_v that_o when_o it_o be_v meet_v for_o jesus_n christ_n to_o defend_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o it_o so_o stand_v with_o his_o office_n &_o calling_n he_o faithful_o discharge_v the_o same_o but_o when_o in_o hold_v his_o peace_n he_o play_v the_o part_n of_o a_o redeemer_n as_o though_o he_o be_v content_v willing_o to_o be_v conden_v it_o be_v not_o for_o his_o own_o cause_n that_o he_o hold_v his_o peace_n but_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v for_o our_o sake_n true_a it_o be_v that_o he_o speak_v as_o we_o shall_v ofttimes_o see_v but_o it_o be_v not_o in_o his_o own_o defence_n which_o do_v but_o so_o much_o the_o more_o kindle_v the_o rage_n and_o fury_n of_o the_o ungodly_a against_o himself_o and_o thus_o we_o see_v that_o it_o be_v not_o his_o meaning_n to_o escape_v death_n but_o be_v content_v willing_o to_o be_v overthrow_v to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v declare_v that_o he_o have_v quite_o forget_v himself_o to_o discharge_v we_o before_o god_n his_o father_n now_o he_o neither_o respect_v himself_o his_o own_o life_n nor_o yet_o his_o honour_n for_o he_o care_v not_o to_o abide_v all_o the_o shame_n and_o slander_v of_o the_o world_n so_o that_o our_o sin_n may_v be_v take_v away_o and_o we_o pardon_v of_o our_o condemnation_n and_o hereupon_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o high_a priest_n charge_v he_o by_o the_o live_a god_n to_o tell_v he_o whether_o he_o be_v christ_n the_o bless_a son_n of_o god_n he_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v so_o but_o that_o they_o shall_v see_v his_o majesty_n when_o it_o will_v be_v too_o late_o for_o they_o because_o such_o their_o deal_n shall_v be_v their_o destruction_n and_o overthrow_n now_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n speak_v not_o this_o here_o to_o make_v the_o high_a priest_n and_o his_o company_n to_o yield_v gentle_o but_o rather_o to_o prick_v he_o fast_o on_o and_o as_o he_o be_v before_o full_a of_o malice_n &_o cruelty_n this_o be_v to_o make_v the_o fire_n to_o burst_v out_o into_o a_o great_a flambe_v howbeit_o we_o have_v say_v that_o jesus_n

see_v here_o in_o the_o first_o place_n that_o the_o contemner_n of_o god_n and_o such_o as_o satan_n have_v altogether_o possess_v will_v use_v some_o colour_a kind_n of_o religion_n for_o a_o man_n will_v think_v that_o the_o high_a priest_n do_v his_o duty_n in_o charge_v jesus_n christ_n by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o live_a god_n but_o see_v into_o what_o a_o mischief_n we_o be_v plunge_v when_o satan_n have_v once_o blindfould_v our_o eye_n for_o he_o than_o throw_v we_o headlong_o into_o such_o shamlesnesse_n as_o that_o we_o have_v no_o more_o reverence_n unto_o god_n than_o we_o be_v ashamed_a before_o man_n now_o this_o answer_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n give_v we_o to_o note_v that_o he_o mean_v to_o declare_v to_o cayphas_n and_o the_o rest_n that_o although_o he_o be_v for_o a_o time_n as_o a_o man_n will_v say_v abase_v yet_o will_v not_o that_o lessen_v his_o majesty_n but_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v always_o take_v to_o be_v the_o only_a son_n of_o god_n but_o yet_o there_o be_v one_o thing_n far_o to_o be_v consider_v of_o which_o be_v for_o our_o better_a confirmation_n that_o although_o he_o be_v thus_o abase_v for_o our_o salvation_n he_o lose_v no_o

but_o that_o he_o prefer_v other_o before_o himself_o what_o other_o thing_n can_v here_o be_v see_v save_v only_o a_o wonderful_a goodness_n in_o that_o he_o will_v be_v throw_v down_o as_o man_n think_v to_o draw_v we_o out_o of_o the_o bottomeles_a depth_n that_o he_o will_v suffer_v all_o that_o we_o deserve_v to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v acquit_v we_o thereof_o to_o be_v short_a he_o

when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n save_v other_o and_o not_o himself_o it_o be_v a_o speech_n which_o in_o our_o judgement_n shall_v cause_v we_o to_o conceive_v a_o disdain_n against_o the_o person_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n even_o to_o refuse_v he_o and_o not_o to_o trust_v in_o he_o but_o let_v we_o clean_o contrary_n understand_v that_o when_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v

his_o obedience_n may_v be_v know_v we_o see_v then_o that_o the_o apostle_n namely_o specifi_v that_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v be_v wonderful_o afeard_a for_o

that_o that_o may_v be_v say_v be_v it_o possible_a that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v so_o fearful_o trouble_v see_v he_o be_v perfection_n itself_o for_o this_o seem_v to_o derogate_v from_o the_o

i_o in_o the_o first_o place_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o jesus_n christ_n inasmuch_o as_o he_o be_v god_n can_v have_v no_o such_o conceit_n no_o but_o until_o such_o time_n as_o it_o fall_v

be_v he_o as_o saint_n john_n say_v in_o his_o canonical_a epistle_n 5.6_o 1._o john_n 5.6_o who_o by_o his_o sacrifice_n wrought_v our_o purgation_n and_o peace_n for_o the_o blot_n out_o of_o all_o

the_o blood_n will_v go_v from_o it_o but_o however_o it_o be_v saint_n john_n say_v that_o god_n will_v show_v for_o what_o cause_n the_o death_n of_o his_o son_n profit_v we_o to_o wit_n 2d_o heb._n 9_o 2d_o in_o the_o first_o place_n he_o be_v at_o peace_n with_o we_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o shed_n of_o blood_n for_o as_o it_o be_v say_v there_o can_v be_v no_o remission_n of_o sin_n without_o the_o effusion_n of_o blood_n for_o behold_v why_o sacrifice_n be_v use_v from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o god_n have_v say_v that_o he_o will_v be_v merciful_a to_o all_o miserable_a sinner_n which_o put_v their_o trust_n in_o he_o but_o yet_o he_o will_v have_v sacrifice_n to_o be_v offer_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v that_o man_n shall_v be_v free_o forgive_v their_o

which_o run_v down_o from_o the_o side_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n witness_v unto_o we_o that_o the_o sacrifice_n which_o he_o offer_v be_v a_o satisfaction_n for_o all_o our_o iniquity_n so_o that_o we_o be_v discharge_v of_o they_o before_o god_n true_a it_o be_v we_o must_v continual_o feel_v ourselves_o to_o be_v guilty_a that_o we_o may_v be_v humble_v and_o bring_v to_o true_a repentance_n and_o be_v clear_o void_a of_o all_o presumption_n but_o however_o it_o be_v we_o be_v assure_v that_o god_n acquit_v and_o pardon_v we_o in_o the_o name_n of_o his_o son_n when_o we_o come_v to_o acknowledge_v our_o sin_n and_o iniquity_n and_o why_o so_o because_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o his_o death_n be_v sufficient_a to_o blot_v out_o the_o memory_n of_o all_o our_o transgression_n it_o be_v the_o water_n then_o that_o cleanse_v wherefore_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v be_v wash_v from_o all_o our_o spot_n let_v we_o understande_v that_o the_o meaning_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v that_o water_n shall_v issue_v out_o of_o his_o side_n to_o declare_v that_o he_o be_v in_o very_a deed_n our_o purity_n and_o that_o we_o must_v seek_v for_o none_o other_o remedy_n to_o wash_v we_o from_o all_o our_o filthiness_n and_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o water_n and_o blood_n come_v from_o he_o by_o which_o mean_v we_o be_v thorough_o save_v in_o he_o and_o therefore_o must_v make_v no_o wandless_n to_o seek_v our_o aid_n else_o where_o but_o when_o we_o shall_v consider_v more_o near_o of_o the_o matter_n we_o shall_v see_v a_o very_a notable_a similitude_n between_o the_o blood_n and_o the_o water_n which_o issue_v out_o of_o the_o side_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o church_n in_o which_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v perform_v in_o his_o death_n be_v allow_v and_o seal_v unto_o us._n for_o after_o he_o have_v suffer_v whatsoever_o be_v requisite_a for_o our_o salvation_n and_o full_o satisfy_v god_n his_o father_n by_o sanctifi_v and_o purchase_v we_o full_a righteousness_n he_o will_v that_o all_o the_o whole_a matter_n shall_v be_v witness_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o two_o sacrament_n of_o his_o own_o institution_n i_o speak_v of_o two_o because_o there_o be_v no_o more_o institute_v in_o his_o word_n but_o baptism_n and_o the_o supper_n for_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v but_o a_o vain_a imagination_n devise_v by_o the_o rash_a boldness_n of_o man_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n pour_v out_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n aswell_o upon_o baptism_n as_o on_o the_o holy_a supper_n for_o baptism_n be_v a_o witness_n unto_o we_o that_o he_o have_v so_o wash_v and_o cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o our_o filthiness_n as_o that_o god_n receive_v we_o unto_o his_o favour_n as_o if_o we_o come_v clean_o and_o neat_a before_o he_o now_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o the_o water_n in_o baptism_n work_v not_o this_o effect_n for_o how_o can_v a_o corruptible_a element_n wash_v and_o cleanse_v our_o soul_n but_o the_o matter_n be_v because_o water_n issue_v out_o of_o the_o side_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o will_v that_o baptism_n shall_v do_v we_o good_a let_v we_o go_v unto_o he_o who_o be_v crucify_v for_o we_o and_o when_o we_o will_v feel_v the_o fruit_n thereof_o let_v we_o run_v unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o will_v have_v we_o seek_v for_o every_o part_n and_o parcel_n of_o our_o salvation_n in_o he_o without_o wander_v and_o whéel_v hither_o and_o thither_o and_o beside_o we_o have_v in_o the_o holy_a supper_n a_o testimony_n that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v our_o
shepherd_n and_o that_o under_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n he_o present_v unto_o we_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n here_o than_o we_o see_v the_o whole_a perfection_n of_o our_o salvation_n when_o as_o we_o be_v thus_o cleanse_v and_o that_o god_n accept_v we_o as_o if_o we_o be_v pure_a and_o righteous_a and_o be_v so_o acquit_v before_o he_o as_o guiltless_a because_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v make_v full_a satisfaction_n for_o us._n thus_o we_o see_v how_o we_o must_v profit_v by_o the_o sacrament_n by_o direct_v our_o whole_a faith_n unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o to_o incline_v unto_o creature_n we_o see_v also_o how_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v confirm_v by_o the_o suffer_a of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o let_v it_o be_v always_o fresh_a in_o our_o

this_o be_v in_o sum_n the_o thing_n which_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v of_o concern_v the_o pierce_a of_o the_o side_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o beside_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o

although_o the_o soldier_n know_v not_o what_o they_o do_v yet_o god_n effectual_o execute_v that_o which_o he_o have_v speak_v aswell_o by_o moses_n as_o by_o his_o prophet_n zachary_n we_o have_v already_o see_v the_o testimony_n of_o exodus_fw-la and_o saint_n john_n have_v also_o put_v too_o the_o say_n of_o the_o prophet_n zachary_n who_o word_n be_v these_o they_o shall_v see_v he_o who_o they_o have_v pierce_a in_o deed_n god_n use_v in_o that_o a_o similitude_n for_o 12.20_o zach._n 12.20_o he_o set_v himself_o against_o the_o contemner_n of_o his_o word_n who_o heart_n be_v rebellious_o and_o wicked_o harden_v well_o say_v he_o they_o think_v they_o make_v war_n against_o the_o preacher_n of_o my_o word_n and_o that_o they_o may_v by_o this_o mean_a stop_v they_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v against_o i_o they_o fight_v and_o whensoever_o they_o contemn_v and_o refuse_v my_o word_n after_o this_o manner_n it_o be_v as_o if_o they_o wound_v i_o with_o the_o

pierce_v he_o in_o his_o mortal_a body_n and_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o he_o be_v manifest_v to_o be_v the_o living_n god_n who_o be_v in_o all_o age_n speak_v of_o by_o his_o prophet_n since_o we_o see_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v speak_v be_v accomplish_v in_o his_o person_n now_o it_o be_v afterward_o say_v that_o when_o joseph_n have_v obtain_v of_o pilate_n to_o take_v away_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n from_o the_o cross_n to_o bury_v he_o that_o he_o take_v a_o clean_a linen_n sheet_n and_o buy_v sweet_a ointment_n also_o which_o as_o s._n john_n say_v 19.39_o john_n 19.39_o cost_v a_o great_a sum_n of_o money_n of_o myrrh_n and_o aloe_n and_o bury_v he_o in_o a_o new_a tomb_n which_o he_o have_v new_a make_v and_o hew_v out_o of_o a_o rock_n in_o this_o sepulchre_n or_o tomb_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n first_o begin_v to_o show_v the_o issue_n of_o his_o death_n which_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v very_o speedy_o glorify_v himself_o in_o his_o resurrection_n and_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n eftsoon_o to_o manifest_v it_o and_o here_o we_o see_v a_o infallible_a testimony_n that_o amongst_o so_o many_o confusion_n which_o we_o read_v in_o this_o history_n that_o may_v trouble_v we_o and_o as_o it_o be_v shake_v our_o faith_n we_o may_v perceive_v that_o god_n have_v always_o care_n of_o his_o only_a son_n as_o of_o the_o head_n of_o his_o church_n and_o of_o his_o well-beloved_a not_o to_o the_o end_n only_o that_o we_o shall_v trust_v in_o he_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v also_o by_o little_a &_o little_a look_n unto_o it_o that_o since_o we_o be_v the_o member_n of_o his_o body_n that_o the_o fatherly_a care_n of_o god_n will_v stretch_v itself_o not_o only_o unto_o we_o but_o also_o to_o every_o one_o else_o which_o trust_v in_o he_o but_o by_o the_o way_n this_o question_n may_v be_v ask_v why_o our_o lord_n jesus_n will_v be_v so_o sumptuous_o bury_v for_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o it_o be_v a_o superfluous_a thing_n to_o use_v the_o costlinesse_n of_o aloe_n &_o myrrh_n and_o such_o like_a and_o to_o say_v the_o truth_n what_o profit_v this_o a_o dead_a man_n to_o be_v wash_v and_o anoint_v or_o to_o have_v any_o other_o glorious_a show_n and_o therefore_o a_o man_n will_v think_v that_o this_o agree_v not_o with_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n where_o as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v raise_v up_o again_o at_o the_o latter_a day_n by_o the_o wonderful_a power_n of_o our_o god_n wherefore_o it_o seem_v that_o all_o those_o pomp_n shall_v be_v naught_o set_v by_o and_o be_v clean_o forget_v and_o hereupon_o it_o may_v be_v think_v that_o joseph_n his_o religion_n be_v but_o foolish_a which_o shall_v darken_v the_o hope_n of_o the_o resurrection_n howbeit_o we_o have_v here_o to_o note_n that_o the_o jew_n use_v these_o kind_n of_o ceremony_n until_o the_o time_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v accomplish_v all_o whatsoever_o be_v requisite_a for_o our_o salvation_n and_o the_o burial_n at_o those_o day_n be_v as_o the_o sacrifice_n washinge_n and_o light_n of_o the_o temple_n and_o such_o like_a and_o because_o they_o be_v rude_a people_n it_o be_v meet_v they_o shall_v be_v

than_o they_o know_v the_o meaning_n of_o their_o sacrifice_n howbeit_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o condemn_v they_o insomuch_o as_o they_o depart_v from_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n and_o corrupt_v the_o testimony_n that_o be_v give_v they_o which_o shall_v have_v bring_v they_o to_o the_o belief_n of_o the_o heavenly_a life_n but_o however_o it_o be_v the_o burial_n of_o itself_o be_v always_o as_o a_o mirror_n of_o the_o resurrection_n for_o they_o put_v the_o body_n into_o the_o ground_n to_o be_v keep_v for_o a_o time_n for_o if_o there_o be_v no_o resurrection_n it_o be_v no_o matter_n if_o

although_o they_o be_v sure_a they_o turn_v to_o dust_n in_o deed_n the_o jew_n observe_v many_o ceremony_n and_o yet_o the_o egyptian_n far_o pass_v they_o but_o this_o their_o great_a sorrow_n

bury_v after_o the_o ancient_a fashion_n because_o he_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o by_o his_o resurrection_n full_o accomplish_v our_o salvation_n this_o be_v true_a that_o at_o his_o death_n the_o

and_o therefore_o his_o will_n be_v to_o be_v bury_v and_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o point_n let_v we_o now_o also_o understand_v
be_v not_o only_o speak_v of_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o also_o of_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o his_o gospel_n and_o of_o the_o whole_a order_n which_o he_o take_v for_o the_o maintenance_n &_o government_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v be_v assure_v of_o our_o salvation_n in_o jesus_n christ_n we_o must_v in_o the_o first_o place_n not_o be_v ashamed_a that_o he_o be_v so_o disfigure_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n &_o be_v send_v into_o the_o world_n be_v take_v to_o be_v as_o one_o most_o accurse_a and_o soon_o after_o his_o

of_o god_n be_v show_v in_o they_o &_o man_n be_v free_v &_o pardon_v by_o they_o and_o how_o can_v jesus_n christ_n be_v call_v our_o life_n if_o he_o have_v not_o swallow_v up_o death_n by_o his_o

wherewith_o by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n we_o be_v hold_v under_o for_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o god_n must_v be_v our_o judge_n for_o ever_o &_o this_o be_v the_o most_o fearful_a thing_n that_o may_v be_v to_o have_v god_n our_o enemy_n and_o it_o behove_v that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v enter_v into_o it_o as_o our_o pledge_n &_o as_o one_o that_o shall_v make_v satisfaction_n for_o

they_o will_v have_v other_o to_o settle_v themselves_o and_o trust_v upon_o such_o profanation_n moreover_o forsomuch_o as_o there_o be_v in_o popery_n both_o man_n and_o woman_n hypocrite_n they_o

be_v justify_v neither_o yet_o shall_v any_o atonement_n have_v be_v make_v between_o god_n &_o we_o to_o wit_n if_o jesus_n have_v not_o repare_v our_o transgression_n through_o his_o obedience_n and_o therefore_o if_o the_o death_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v be_v constrain_v and_o that_o he_o have_v not_o submit_v himself_o willing_o it_o have_v not_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n to_o have_v

the_o prophet_n say_v that_o he_o be_v like_o a_o dumb_a man_n and_o compare_v he_o unto_o a_o sheep_n or_o unto_o a_o lamb_n have_v regard_n unto_o the_o figure_n of_o the_o ancient_a sacrifice_n for_o when_o we_o here_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n speak_v of_o we_o must_v take_v it_o to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n wherewith_o god_n the_o father_n be_v appeal_v because_o

of_o death_n and_o be_v even_o subject_a thereto_o for_o our_o justification_n and_o to_o say_v true_o to_o what_o purpose_n have_v it_o be_v if_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v but_o open_o suffer_v &_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o world_n for_o if_o he_o have_v suffer_v but_o in_o body_n he_o shall_v then_o have_v be_v a_o redeemer_n of_o body_n only_o but_o because_o the_o principal_a matter_n why_o we_o shall_v believe_v in_o he_o be_v that_o we_o may_v feel_v and_o be_v full_o persuade_v that_o death_n shall_v be_v no_o more_o deadly_a unto_o we_o and_o that_o we_o be_v free_v from_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n it_o be_v meet_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v feel_v these_o point_n in_o himself_o &_o so_o come_v before_o god_n may_v be_v as_o a_o wretched_a malefactor_n before_o his_o judge_n for_o we_o know_v that_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n bring_v not_o with_o it_o a_o temporal_a death_n only_o but_o also_o a_o feel_v of_o the_o enmity_n of_o god_n and_o of_o his_o horrible_a judgement_n against_o us._n and_o what_o be_v that_o forsooth_o the_o most_o insupportable_a and_o terrible_a thing_n that_o possible_o may_v be_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v be_v drive_v thereto_o for_o our_o deliverance_n and_o this_o be_v it_o which_o the_o prophet_n at_o this_o present_a declare_v unto_o us._n and_o here_o we_o see_v a_o great_a deal_n the_o better_a how_o god_n have_v love_v we_o and_o what_o the_o infinite_a treasure_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o goodness_n be_v which_o he_o have_v pour_v out_o upon_o us._n moreover_o we_o may_v also_o very_a well_o understande_v what_o care_n and_o zeal_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v over_o our_o salvation_n when_o as_o he_o force_v not_o to_o make_v his_o own_o body_n answer_v the_o satisfaction_n of_o our_o sin_n but_o also_o to_o bring_v himself_o into_o such_o a_o horrible_a fear_n as_o one_o that_o shall_v feel_v the_o judgement_n of_o god_n who_o lay_v hold_v on_o he_o as_o upon_o he_o who_o have_v deserve_v the_o curse_n which_o god_n have_v pronounce_v from_o his_o own_o mouth_n to_o wit_n that_o it_o be_v the_o very_a thing_n to_o swallow_v we_o up_o into_o hell_n and_o a_o gulf_n utter_o to_o destroy_v us._n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v feel_v all_o this_o now_o to_o say_v the_o truth_n when_o we_o see_v that_o he_o have_v thereby_o sweat_v water_n and_o blood_n 22.3_o luk._n 22.3_o and_o that_o the_o angel_n come_v down_o to_o comfort_v he_o this_o can_v not_o choose_v but_o be_v a_o wonderful_a extreme_a sorrow_n and_o grief_n see_v the_o like_a example_n have_v never_o be_v see_v all_o the_o world_n over_o thus_o we_o see_v the_o meaning_n of_o these_o word_n of_o the_o travail_n or_o grief_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n now_o it_o be_v true_a as_o saint_n peter_n say_v that_o the_o sorrow_n of_o hell_n can_v not_o hold_v he_o under_o howbeit_o it_o be_v meet_v he_o shall_v strive_v with_o they_o 2.24_o act._n 2.24_o and_o in_o the_o end_n he_o have_v the_o victory_n over_o they_o but_o it_o be_v not_o without_o great_a and_o painful_a fight_n moreover_o we_o be_v present_o to_o gather_v out_o of_o this_o place_n that_o although_o we_o must_v die_v we_o must_v
not_o therefore_o say_v that_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o effectual_a nor_o yet_o profit_v we_o so_o much_o as_o be_v expedient_a because_o the_o death_n whereunto_o we_o be_v now_o subject_a be_v but_o a_o warn_n unto_o we_o of_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n for_o if_o we_o be_v clear_o exempt_a from_o death_n we_o shall_v then_o never_o know_v the_o grace_n which_o be_v purchase_v for_o we_o by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o we_o also_o know_v what_o need_n we_o have_v to_o be_v humble_v and_o that_o god_n make_v we_o always_o to_o feel_v his_o wrath_n for_o although_o we_o be_v altogether_o exempt_a thereof_o yet_o ought_v we_o to_o think_v still_o of_o it_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v groan_v by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o therefore_o magnify_v his_o mercy_n so_o much_o the_o more_o wherefore_o the_o death_n to_o speak_v proper_o which_o all_o man_n now_o die_v as_o it_o be_v be_v not_o deadly_a to_o those_o which_o have_v faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n because_o they_o pass_v out_o of_o this_o life_n to_o live_v unto_o god_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o die_v we_o be_v to_o comfort_v ourselves_o and_o rejoice_v because_o we_o know_v that_o god_n will_v be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o and_o convert_v the_o evil_a into_o good_a &_o make_v death_n which_o before_o bring_v with_o it_o a_o mortal_a wound_n to_o serve_v for_o a_o plaster_n and_o how_o be_v that_o forsooth_o because_o we_o shall_v understande_v that_o god_n will_v not_o become_v a_o severe_a judge_n unto_o we_o &_o pour_v out_o his_o vengeance_n upon_o we_o when_o as_o we_o bring_v jesus_n christ_n with_o we_o to_o show_v that_o he_o have_v make_v satisfaction_n for_o us._n and_o therefore_o death_n have_v not_o take_v such_o fearful_a hold_n on_o we_o as_o to_o confound_v we_o and_o bring_v we_o to_o despair_v 10.28_o joh._n 6.39_o &_o 10.28_o but_o do_v come_v free_o to_o put_v ourselves_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n for_o as_o it_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n commend_v his_o soul_n unto_o god_n his_o father_n let_v we_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v to_o make_v he_o gardaine_v of_o our_o soul_n and_o therefore_o may_v we_o commend_v they_o most_o assure_o into_o his_o hand_n because_o he_o have_v say_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v give_v to_o he_o to_o keep_v shall_v never_o perish_v thus_o than_o we_o see_v to_o what_o end_n this_o anguish_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n serve_v and_o that_o over_o and_o beside_o he_o abode_n death_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o torment_n yet_o have_v he_o also_o this_o terror_n of_o the_o feel_v of_o god_n to_o be_v his_o judge_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v suffer_v the_o pain_n of_o hell_n now_o it_o be_v so_o far_o off_o that_o this_o be_v any_o whit_n derogatory_n from_o his_o majesty_n as_o that_o it_o be_v to_o make_v we_o a_o great_a deal_n the_o better_a understand_v how_o great_o he_o esteem_v of_o our_o salvation_n and_o how_o dear_a and_o precious_a we_o and_o our_o soul_n be_v unto_o he_o and_o therefore_o although_o he_o be_v make_v of_o no_o reputation_n as_o before_o have_v be_v see_v and_o have_v neither_o form_n nor_o fashion_n why_o man_n shall_v be_v desirous_a of_o he_o yet_o be_v this_o his_o light_a estimation_n of_o he_o to_o exalte_n he_o so_o much_o the_o more_o and_o in_o deed_n although_o god_n show_v his_o highness_n and_o infinite_a majesty_n in_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n yet_o have_v we_o a_o far_o more_o large_a cause_n to_o glorify_v god_n in_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n because_o jesus_n christ_n abase_v and_o humble_v himself_o for_o we_o and_o for_o our_o salvation_n and_o although_o he_o be_v not_o rob_v of_o his_o divine_a majesty_n yet_o lie_v it_o hyd_fw-we for_o a_o time_n and_o be_v never_o perceive_v by_o any_o man_n and_o this_o be_v in_o sum_n that_o which_o the_o prophet_n here_o handle_v as_o concern_v the_o pain_n and_o grief_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n now_o we_o see_v herein_o that_o he_o forget_v himself_o as_o it_o be_v and_o never_o care_v for_o himself_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o be_v altogether_o give_v to_o save_v we_o and_o so_o answer_v for_o we_o both_o in_o body_n and_o soul_n and_o be_v our_o only_a pledge_n and_o in_o this_o we_o see_v that_o the_o very_a cur_n who_o will_v at_o this_o day_n abolish_v this_o doctrine_n have_v neither_o faith_n nor_o religion_n in_o they_o but_o bark_n at_o it_o like_o mastiff_n they_o know_v not_o why_o nor_o wherefore_o and_o although_o our_o popish_a hypocrite_n who_o understand_v this_o but_o by_o half_n be_v yet_o notwithstanding_o howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v drive_v to_o confess_v that_o jesus_n christ_n feel_v most_o terrible_a pang_n in_o deed_n they_o be_v never_o able_a full_o to_o define_v of_o all_o that_o be_v in_o it_o but_o yet_o how_o ever_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v they_o jumble_v partly_o at_o it_o notwithstanding_o there_o be_v here_o a_o company_n of_o villain_n more_o monkish_a they_o they_o which_o live_v in_o their_o cell_n &_o in_o those_o stew_n out_o of_o which_o they_o come_v who_o have_v bring_v their_o stench_n &_o infection_n into_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o this_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o these_o dog_n which_o at_o this_o day_n carry_v the_o name_n of_o minister_n and_o do_v also_o occupy_v that_o place_n and_o yet_o make_v a_o swine_n sty_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n be_v like_o dog_n without_o all_o religion_n and_o go_v about_o nothing_o else_o but_o to_o deface_v and_o put_v out_o of_o man_n mind_n all_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o whatsoever_o else_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v do_v for_o us._n now_o when_o we_o see_v that_o satan_n have_v thus_o push_v they_o forward_o as_o to_o become_v like_o shameless_a whore_n we_o ought_v so_o much_o the_o rather_o to_o consider_v of_o this_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n which_o be_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o only_o condemn_v of_o pilot_n be_v a_o earthly_a judge_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v be_v pardon_v before_o god_n his_o father_n and_o not_o only_o crucify_v that_o we_o may_v be_v deliver_v from_o the_o curse_n that_o he_o do_v not_o only_o suffer_v death_n that_o we_o may_v be_v free_v from_o it_o but_o also_o that_o we_o at_o this_o day_n may_v have_v peace_n of_o conscience_n and_o be_v glad_a in_o that_o we_o feel_v the_o fatherly_a love_n of_o our_o god_n and_o so_o may_v be_v bold_a to_o call_v upon_o he_o with_o open_a mouth_n be_v assure_v that_o he_o will_v receive_v we_o &_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o and_o it_o be_v meet_a that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v plunge_v in_o these_o horror_n which_o he_o feel_v it_o be_v also_o meet_a that_o he_o who_o be_v the_o immaculate_a lamb_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v make_v like_o unto_o a_o wretched_a malefactor_n and_o that_o he_o who_o be_v the_o mirror_n &_o pattern_n of_o all_o holiness_n &_o perfection_n shall_v answer_v for_o we_o and_o become_v our_o borrow_n even_o to_o that_o very_a pinch_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v be_v condemn_v unto_o the_o bottomless_a pit_n of_o hell_n moreover_o he_o vanquish_v &_o overcome_v all_o these_o sorrow_n as_o we_o have_v before_o say_v but_o yet_o he_o wrestle_v stout_o against_o they_o first_o thus_o we_o see_v what_o the_o meaning_n of_o isaiah_n be_v when_o he_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n must_v see_v travel_n &_o grief_n in_o his_o soul_n howbeit_o we_o see_v that_o he_o be_v notwithstanding_o well_o content_v and_o full_o satisfy_v therewith_o always_o provide_v that_o we_o may_v be_v redeem_v by_o that_o mean_a and_o therefore_o we_o may_v at_o this_o day_n be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o bold_a know_v that_o if_o we_o have_v a_o true_a obedience_n of_o faith_n whereby_o to_o receive_v the_o inestimable_a benefit_n which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v obtain_v for_o we_o we_o may_v feel_v that_o he_o suffer_v not_o all_o these_o torment_n for_o we_o in_o vain_a wherefore_o our_o unthankfulness_n shall_v be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o inexcusable_a when_o as_o we_o come_v not_o unto_o he_o with_o such_o a_o earnest_a zeal_n to_o enjoy_v this_o inestimable_a benefit_n whereinto_o he_o be_v enter_v and_o whereof_o he_o have_v in_o our_o behalf_n take_v possession_n have_v tell_v we_o that_o he_o have_v reconcile_v we_o unto_o god_n his_o father_n who_o be_v ready_a to_o receive_v we_o as_o his_o child_n thus_o we_o see_v in_o sum_n what_o we_o have_v to_o consider_v of_o in_o this_o place_n now_o the_o prophet_n go_v on_o far_a and_o say_v that_o by_o his_o knowledge_n my_o righteous_a servant_n shall_v justify_v many_o as_o for_o this_o word_n
the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n in_o that_o he_o be_v clothe_v with_o our_o nature_n &_o be_v become_v our_o brother_n &_o this_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o great_a importance_n for_o if_o we_o shall_v be_v justify_v by_o the_o divine_a essence_n or_o nature_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o must_v needs_o be_v far_o of_o from_o his_o righteousness_n and_o we_o be_v never_o

familiar_o we_o may_v come_v unto_o he_o consider_v also_o why_o satan_n will_v so_o fain_o confound_v this_o doctrine_n and_o there_o be_v likewise_o some_o fantastical_a spirit_n which_o fond_o dream_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o he_o be_v god_n justifi_v the_o faithful_a but_o we_o must_v as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v seek_v for_o our_o righteousness_n very_o far_o of_o &_o that_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v we_o fainthearted_a &_o to_o make_v we_o also_o vanish_v away_o before_o we_o come_v at_o he_o but_o contrariwise_o as_o he_o be_v a_o mortal_a man_n he_o call_v we_o unto_o himself_o and_o make_v himself_o a_o mediator_n because_o we_o may_v seek_v for_o our_o righteousness_n therein_o and_o this_o be_v a_o point_n worthy_a the_o observation_n &_o beside_o let_v we_o always_o come_v unto_o this_o knowledge_n and_o because_o the_o faithless_a shut_v the_o gate_n upon_o themselves_o and_o so_o spoil_v themselves_o of_o the_o benefit_n which_o they_o shall_v receive_v by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n let_v we_o therefore_o be_v diligent_a to_o receive_v the_o testimony_n which_o be_v give_fw-ge unto_o we_o by_o the_o gospel_n we_o bring_v you_o say_v s_n paul_n the_o ambassade_n in_o the_o name_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n beseech_v you_o to_o reconcile_v yourselves_o unto_o god_n s._n paul_n set_v down_o a_o double_a reconciliation_n 5.10_o 2._o cor._n 5.10_o the_o one_o be_v the_o sacrifice_n which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n make_v for_o we_o in_o his_o own_o person_n the_o other_o be_v that_o which_o we_o daily_o obtain_v through_o faith_n when_o as_o god_n tell_v we_o that_o although_o we_o have_v move_v he_o to_o anger_n yet_o be_v he_o continual_o ready_a to_o forget_v our_o fault_n and_o tread_v they_o under_o his_o foot_n so_o that_o we_o make_v account_n of_o the_o benefit_n which_o he_o offer_v us._n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o esteem_v of_o the_o gospel_n a_o great_a deal_n more_o than_o heretofore_o we_o have_v do_v and_o understande_v that_o it_o be_v to_o this_o end_n too_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o we_o be_v ingraff_v into_o his_o body_n &_o make_v his_o member_n and_o all_o whatsoever_o be_v he_o be_v also_o we_o and_o that_o through_o the_o aptness_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n it_o be_v that_o saint_n paul_n say_v 1.16_o rom._n 1.16_o that_o the_o gospel_n be_v the_o power_n of_o god_n unto_o salvation_n to_o all_o that_o believe_v show_v hereby_o that_o if_o we_o refuse_v to_o

daily_o bide_v and_o exhort_v us._n and_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n and_o effect_n of_o that_o which_o we_o have_v here_o to_o observe_v and_o therefore_o we_o ought_v so_o much_o the_o more_o make_v estimation_n of_o the_o gospel_n whenas_o we_o see_v that_o it_o be_v in_o popery_n so_o darken_v yea_o and_o in_o such_o sort_n altogether_o deface_v as_o that_o the_o poor_a soul_n be_v utter_o

howbeit_o this_o be_v to_o make_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n of_o none_o effect_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v so_o to_o benefit_n

so_o much_o the_o more_o praise_n and_o magnifye_v this_o grace_n whenas_o we_o see_v the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n to_o be_v so_o far_o from_o it_o now_o it_o remain_v that_o the_o

the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o no_o more_o by_o faith_n only_o it_o be_v much_o like_a as_o if_o a_o man_n will_v say_v we_o be_v make_v warm_a by_o heat_n and_o therefore_o not_o by_o the_o sun_n we_o be_v lighten_v by_o the_o light_n and_o therefore_o not_o by_o the_o sun_n now_o let_v we_o here_o note_n that_o when_o we_o speak_v of_o faith_n it_o be_v to_o this_o end_n to_o bring_v we_o back_o to_o the_o gospel_n for_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v here_o be_v two_o kind_n of_o righteousness_n for_o we_o be_v say_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o law_n whenas_o we_o have_v fulfil_v all_o whatsoever_o god_n have_v command_v we_o therein_o now_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o come_v to_o the_o perfection_n thereof_o and_o therefore_o we_o see_v that_o we_o be_v bare_a of_o this_o righteousness_n and_o utter_o cut_v of_o from_o it_o there_o be_v also_o another_o kind_n of_o righteousness_n and_o that_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o after_o we_o have_v be_v thorough_o examine_v and_o try_v we_o be_v sure_a to_o be_v find_v guilty_a of_o malice_n and_o wickedness_n so_o that_o we_o must_v needs_o be_v afeard_a because_o we_o feel_v god_n to_o be_v so_o arm_v in_o wrath_n against_o we_o as_o that_o he_o do_v nothing_o else_o but_o thunder_n out_o vengeance_n upon_o we_o to_o throw_v we_o down_o into_o the_o pit_n of_o hell_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o be_v drive_v to_o this_o so_o great_a a_o extremity_n behold_v how_o christ_n grant_v we_o a_o remedy_n to_o mitigate_v and_o assawge_a all_o our_o sorrow_n which_o be_v this_o he_o certefi_v we_o that_o he_o himself_o alone_o will_n be_v altogether_o sufficient_a to_o bring_v we_o the_o save_a health_n which_o he_o have_v purchase_v for_o us._n thus_o we_o see_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n wherefore_o we_o may_v perceive_v that_o the_o prophet_n speak_v after_o the_o self_n same_o manner_n that_o saint_n paul_n speak_v after_o his_o time_n that_o be_v he_o make_v we_o in_o the_o first_o place_n to_o come_v unto_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n behold_v he_o crucify_v for_o our_o sake_n and_o beside_o that_o we_o be_v assure_v by_o the_o gospel_n that_o whatsoever_o jesus_n christ_n do_v and_o suffer_v belong_v and_o be_v to_o be_v apply_v to_o we_o at_o this_o day_n because_o the_o father_n will_v not_o have_v this_o his_o death_n to_o be_v unprofitable_a but_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o sacrifice_n full_a of_o power_n and_o effect_n to_o fruictifie_v daily_o in_o us._n and_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o that_o which_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v out_o of_o this_o place_n but_o by_o the_o way_n let_v we_o here_o note_n that_o this_o knowledge_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v no_o vain_a thing_n as_o many_o when_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v tell_v they_o of_o understande_v it_o for_o they_o think_v it_o sufficient_a
the_o first_o place_n what_o it_o be_v that_o we_o have_v to_o consider_v of_o out_o of_o these_o word_n that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v ascend_v have_v not_o only_o hold_v all_o our_o enemy_n captive_a but_o also_o have_v make_v a_o utter_a spoil_n of_o they_o and_o we_o have_v receive_v all_o the_o gift_n which_o be_v give_v he_o for_o homage_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v be_v enrich_v by_o his_o liberality_n be_v of_o ourselves_o altogether_o poor_a and_o needy_a now_o it_o be_v namely_o say_v because_o he_o have_v pour_v out_o his_o soul_n to_o death_n whereby_o isaiah_n again_o express_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n of_o his_o own_o free_a will_n offer_v up_o himself_o for_o these_o word_n to_o pour_v out_o signify_v that_o he_o spare_v not_o himself_o nor_o sorrow_v for_o the_o matter_n for_o he_o that_o give_v with_o a_o good_a will_n and_o in_o the_o end_n slack_v his_o hand_n make_v always_o a_o show_n of_o spare_v but_o he_o that_o pour_v out_o show_v that_o he_o give_v lusty_o &_o liberral_o so_o then_o it_o be_v show_v we_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n be_v so_o fervent_o inflame_v with_o the_o love_n of_o we_o as_o that_o his_o life_n gush_v out_o like_o water_n and_o that_o he_o become_v a_o willing_a sacrifice_n thereby_o to_o show_v that_o he_o desire_v nothing_o else_o but_o for_o reconcilement_n unto_o god_n his_o father_n and_o this_o be_v always_o for_o our_o great_a confirmation_n to_o the_o end_n that_o when_o we_o come_v unto_o he_o we_o shall_v never_o doubt_v but_o that_o he_o will_v most_o gentle_o and_o love_o receive_v us._n for_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o he_o shall_v so_o reject_v we_o as_o member_n cut_v of_o from_o he_o see_v he_o so_o utter_o as_o it_o be_v forsake_v himself_o for_o our_o sake_n and_o shed_v his_o precious_a heart_n blood_n wherefore_o when_o we_o hear_v this_o we_o be_v occasion_v to_o come_v more_o bold_o unto_o he_o and_o to_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o at_o this_o day_n will_v make_v this_o sacrifice_n which_o he_o so_o free_o offer_v up_o unto_o god_n his_o father_n of_o great_a effect_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o wonderful_a love_n he_o bear_v to_o we_o ward_n moreover_o forsomuch_o as_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v perpetual_a let_v we_o understand_v that_o we_o be_v at_o this_o day_n enrich_v as_o much_o as_o be_v needful_a as_o by_o experience_n we_o feel_v for_o jesus_n christ_n must_v needs_o help_v we_o in_o all_o the_o distress_n wherewith_o we_o be_v encompass_v for_o otherwise_o how_o shall_v we_o do_v if_o his_o hand_n be_v not_o always_o upon_o we_o to_o uphold_v we_o sure_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o we_o to_o stand_v and_o therefore_o he_o always_o give_v we_o wherewith_o to_o relieve_v all_o our_o need_n and_o necessity_n and_o to_o say_v the_o truth_n all_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o spoil_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o god_n his_o father_n have_v enrich_v he_o with_o they_o because_o we_o may_v be_v as_o a_o man_n will_v say_v familiar_o acquaint_v with_o they_o and_o the_o devil_n will_v still_o be_v a_o let_v that_o the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n may_v not_o have_v his_o course_n with_o we_o howbeit_o we_o be_v now_o enrich_v with_o they_o in_o asmuch_o as_o all_o let_n be_v take_v away_o yea_o and_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v that_o thing_n that_o be_v a_o hindrance_n unto_o we_o in_o this_o world_n be_v now_o turn_v to_o our_o good_a and_o benefit_n because_o our_o lord_n jesus_n have_v make_v a_o spoil_n of_o all_o his_o enemy_n now_o it_o be_v namely_o say_v because_o he_o be_v account_v among_o sinner_n and_o bear_v the_o iniquity_n of_o many_o and_o pray_v for_o the_o trespasser_n we_o have_v already_o hear_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n bear_v the_o transgression_n of_o many_o and_o that_o be_v because_o he_o sustain_v the_o punishment_n which_o be_v impossible_a for_o we_o to_o bear_v and_o beside_o we_o be_v too_o too_o frail_a &_o weak_a to_o stand_v before_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n if_o we_o shall_v be_v burden_v with_o our_o sin_n because_o there_o be_v no_o mean_a in_o the_o whole_a world_n to_o be_v find_v to_o discharge_v we_o of_o they_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n for_o the_o ease_n of_o we_o shall_v present_v himself_o in_o our_o steed_n &_o be_v charge_v with_o our_o sin_n that_o they_o may_v be_v impute_v unto_o he_o before_o god_n his_o father_n and_o he_o be_v bind_v for_o the_o payment_n of_o they_o for_o when_o a_o man_n shall_v only_o owe_v a_o thing_n that_o he_o be_v never_o able_a to_o pay_v he_o be_v like_a unto_o one_o that_o be_v stiff_a and_o crooked_a and_o know_v not_o which_o way_n to_o turn_v he_o and_o have_v such_o a_o burden_n on_o his_o back_n as_o it_o be_v that_o so_o crush_v &_o bruise_v his_o shoulder_n as_o that_o it_o make_v he_o to_o stoop_v again_o what_o shall_v they_o become_v of_o we_o who_o be_v not_o debtter_n to_o a_o mortal_a man_n but_o even_o unto_o the_o live_a god_n &_o not_o debtor_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n but_o of_o our_o sin_n which_o deserve_v as_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o his_o fearful_a indignation_n thus_o we_o see_v how_o the_o judgement_n of_o everlasting_a death_n be_v prepare_v for_o we_o until_o such_o time_n as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v discharge_v we_o thereof_o and_o to_o say_v true_o how_o have_v we_o be_v ever_o able_a to_o have_v discharge_v it_o except_o he_o who_o have_v a_o most_o triumphant_a power_n over_o all_o creature_n have_v place_v himself_o in_o our_o steed_n and_o supply_v our_o want_n thus_o we_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n bear_v the_o sin_n and_o iniquity_n of_o many_o 8.32_o john_n 3.16_o rom._n 8.32_o indeed_o this_o say_n of_o many_o be_v oftentimes_o take_v for_o all_o true_a it_o be_v that_o our_o lord_n christ_n offer_v up_o himself_o for_o all_o the_o world_n for_o it_o be_v not_o speak_v by_o three_o or_o four_o when_o it_o be_v say_v god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o spare_v not_o his_o only_a son_n but_o by_o the_o way_n we_o must_v note_v that_o which_o the_o evangelist_n further_o say_v in_o this_o place_n that_o whosoever_o beléeve_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a life_n we_o see_v then_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n suffer_v for_o all_o so_o that_o neither_o great_a nor_o small_a can_v excuse_v themselves_o at_o this_o day_n since_o by_o he_o we_o may_v be_v save_v and_o therefore_o the_o unbeléever_n who_o by_o their_o wickedness_n turn_v a_o side_n &_o deprive_v themselves_o hereof_o be_v at_o this_o day_n twice_o guilty_a for_o what_o colour_n can_v they_o set_v in_o it_o to_o excuse_v their_o unthankfulnes_n in_o that_o they_o receive_v not_o the_o benefit_n whereof_o they_o may_v be_v partaker_n through_o faith_n wherefore_o let_v we_o here_o learn_v that_o although_o we_o shall_v come_v by_o heap_n unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n one_o of_o we_o shall_v be_v no_o let_v to_o another_o but_z that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o suffice_v every_o of_o us._n indeed_o if_o the_o question_n be_v to_o be_v holpen_v &_o ease_v by_o a_o mortal_a man_n it_o be_v another_o matter_n for_o if_o one_o shall_v come_v &_o say_v i_o beseech_v you_o bear_v this_o burden_n for_o i_o and_o another_o say_v asmuch_o and_o so_o a_o hundred_o at_o once_o sure_o although_o he_o be_v very_o desirous_a to_o help_v and_o ease_v they_o all_o it_o can_v not_o be_v choose_v but_o that_o they_o will_v make_v his_o shoulder_n crack_v for_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o he_o to_o be_v of_o that_o strength_n to_o bear_v all_o that_o they_o will_v lay_v upon_o he_o and_o so_o likewise_o if_o the_o question_n be_v of_o borrow_v for_o put_v the_o case_n that_o they_o be_v hungry_a and_o thirsty_a and_o shall_v go_v to_o some_o man_n &_o beseech_v he_o to_o give_v we_o meat_n and_o drink_n and_o it_o may_v be_v that_o he_o be_v well_o able_a to_o bestow_v meat_n and_o drink_n of_o a_o dozen_o person_n but_o if_o there_o shall_v come_v such_o a_o great_a number_n as_o that_o his_o victual_n shall_v fail_v he_o we_o shall_v see_v he_o come_v short_a of_o his_o reckon_n so_o then_o with_o we_o man_n it_o be_v meet_v that_o when_o a_o great_a number_n have_v need_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v also_o many_o to_o help_v and_o aid_v they_o but_o when_o we_o come_v to_o jesus_n christ_n we_o need_v not_o fear_v the_o want_n of_o his_o ability_n for_o when_o every_o man_n shall_v have_v his_o portion_n yet_o have_v he_o never_o a_o whit_n the_o less_o
be_v no_o doubt_n but_o that_o we_o shall_v all_o be_v link_v together_o in_o this_o prayer_n &_o in_o all_o the_o praise_n &_o thanks_n give_v unto_o the_o lord_n and_o that_o jesus_n christ_n do_v as_o a_o man_n will_v say_v pour_v out_o and_o become_v as_o it_o be_v the_o chief_a chaunter_n to_o bring_v we_o into_o our_o prayer_n so_o that_o by_o his_o mean_n the_o sound_n of_o our_o voice_n do_v in_o such_o sort_n join_v together_o as_o that_o they_o make_v very_o sweet_a &_o pleasant_a harmony_n for_o when_o we_o &_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n shall_v pray_v together_o to_o god_n will_v not_o this_o be_v a_o most_o excellent_a privilege_n but_o when_o the_o son_n of_o god_n will_v vouchsafe_v to_o be_v so_o familiar_a with_o we_o as_o to_o say_v come_v your_o way_n &_o i_o will_v be_v your_o spoke_n man_n will_v not_o this_o marvellous_o ravish_v we_o moreover_o his_o be_v figure_v in_o the_o law_n whenas_o the_o high_a priest_n do_v not_o only_o offer_v unto_o god_n the_o sacrifice_n but_o join_v also_o with_o they_o prayer_n &_o supplication_n and_o therefore_o under_o the_o ancient_a shadow_n no_o priest_n can_v make_v intercession_n unto_o god_n and_o be_v make_v acceptable_a without_o the_o shed_n of_o blood_n howbeit_o he_o join_v also_o with_o blood_n prayer_n that_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n may_v be_v forgive_v and_o that_o god_n may_v receive_v such_o to_o mercy_n as_o be_v worthy_a to_o be_v reject_v thus_o we_o see_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v take_v away_o the_o figure_n of_o the_o law_n and_o have_v fulfil_v and_o end_v they_o in_o his_o own_o person_n that_o be_v he_o have_v offer_v up_o blood_n for_o the_o wash_n away_o of_o our_o sin_n not_o the_o blood_n of_o calf_n 9.14_o hebr._n 9.14_o and_o sheep_n

and_o yet_o he_o join_v prayer_n with_o the_o effusion_n of_o blood_n and_o therefore_o we_o see_v why_o at_o this_o day_n he_o be_v call_v our_o mediator_n and_o make_v intercession_n for_o us._n and_o when_o saint_n paul_n speak_v of_o prayer_n he_o say_v 2.5_o 1._o tim._n 2.5_o that_o there_o be_v one_o god_n and_o mediator_n even_o the_o man_n jesus_n christ_n he_o may_v very_o well_o

deal_v with_o a_o jew_n to_o bring_v he_o to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o jesus_n christ_n moreover_o we_o must_v let_v he_o understand_v that_o when_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o messiah_n be_v speak_v of_o in_o the_o scripture_n that_o it_o be_v a_o spiritual_a kingdom_n to_o the_o end_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v deceive_v to_o think_v he_o to_o be_v a_o earthly_a king_n as_o all_o the_o jew_n imagine_v and_o this_o be_v it_o which_o cause_v they_o to_o refuse_v jesus_n christ_n forsomuch_o as_o he_o reign_v not_o over_o the_o people_n as_o they_o think_v he_o shall_v have_v do_v now_o for_o the_o first_o point_n we_o have_v nothing_o wherefore_o to_o stand_v against_o the_o papist_n but_o for_o the_o second_o for_o they_o grant_v unto_o we_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o the_o same_o that_o be_v promise_v in_o the_o law_n and_o that_o he_o be_v put_v to_o death_n and_o rise_v again_o and_o herein_o we_o easy_o agree_v but_o they_o be_v to_o be_v teach_v to_o what_o end_n he_o come_v for_o they_o do_v not_o acknowledge_v he_o to_o be_v the_o same_o man_n in_o deed_n that_o he_o be_v we_o know_v that_o we_o must_v believe_v that_o our_o salvation_n come_v by_o jesus_n christ_n alone_o &_o by_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n and_o the_o papist_n clean_o contrary_a attribute_v it_o unto_o their_o work_n and_o meritte_n and_o other_o their_o invention_n and_o think_v by_o that_o mean_a to_o be_v sanctify_v wherefore_o they_o seek_v in_o their_o work_n the_o thing_n which_o can_v no_o way_n be_v find_v but_o in_o jesus_n christ_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o it_o be_v not_o needful_a for_o we_o to_o teach_v the_o papist_n any_o thing_n as_o concern_v the_o person_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o only_o to_o show_v they_o what_o his_o

for_o the_o jew_n know_v not_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o messiah_n send_v from_o god_n and_o therefore_o much_o less_o know_v they_o his_o power_n and_o why_o he_o come_v and_o therefore_o he_o tell_v they_o that_o he_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n among_o they_o in_o as_o much_o as_o he_o rise_v again_o so_o that_o by_o his_o resurrection_n they_o may_v know_v he_o to_o be_v the_o very_a same_o because_o he_o be_v deliver_v from_o death_n and_o overcome_v it_o and_o therefore_o that_o life_n and_o salvation_n must_v be_v have_v in_o he_o and_o by_o he_o and_o this_o be_v it_o which_o saint_n peter_n mean_v to_o declare_v in_o this_o first_o place_n he_o will_v also_o show_v we_o what_o fruit_n we_o have_v by_o his_o resurrection_n which_o we_o mean_v to_o

let_v we_o follow_v it_o and_o learn_v to_o acknowledge_v that_o so_o soon_o as_o god_n bestow_v any_o benefit_n upon_o we_o that_o it_o be_v because_o we_o be_v the_o member_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o for_o our_o work_n nor_o yet_o for_o any_o other_o thing_n that_o we_o be_v any_o way_n able_a to_o offer_v unto_o he_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o have_v no_o more_o these_o royl_v
