as_o god_n ordain_v it_o and_o so_o long_o as_o the_o jew_n use_v it_o holy_o it_o be_v a_o sure_a warrant_n to_o they_o of_o god_n adoption_n as_o if_o he_o have_v cleanse_v they_o from_o all_o the_o

he_o show_v that_o the_o sacrament_n take_v and_o borrow_v their_o force_n of_o god_n word_n for_o if_o there_o be_v nomore_o but_o the_o bare_a sign_n it_o be_v no_o matter_n of_o great_a

will_v say_v confirm_v that_o then_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n join_v here_o the_o common_a weal_n of_o israel_n and_o the_o instrument_n of_o god_n promise_n and_o our_o lord_n jesus_n

be_v mean_v that_o the_o knowledge_n which_o we_o have_v of_o jesus_n christ_n will_v suffice_v we_o for_o the_o heavenly_a life_n now_o it_o shall_v seem_v at_o the_o first_o blush_n that_o there_o be_v some_o contrariety_n between_o this_o text_n and_o that_o which_o be_v say_v in_o the_o fifteen_o chapter_n of_o the_o first_o epistle_n too_o the_o corinthian_n for_o there_o he_o say_v that_o at_o the_o latter_a day_n when_o the_o world_n shall_v be_v judge_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v yield_v up_o the_o kingdom_n too_o god_n his_o father_n of_o who_o he_o hold_v it_o and_o here_o he_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v establish_v in_o all_o authority_n yea_o even_o for_o the_o world_n too_o come_v but_o these_o two_o agree_v very_o well_o for_o whereas_o he_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v a_o name_n above_o all_o name_n and_o that_o he_o be_v the_o image_n of_o god_n his_o father_n that_o be_v because_o of_o our_o rudeness_n and_o infirmity_n according_a also_o as_o when_o he_o be_v call_v god_n lieutenant_n that_o be_v because_o we_o can_v not_o be_v in_o rest_n except_o we_o know_v that_o god_n have_v his_o hand_n stretch_v out_o too_o succour_v we_o at_o our_o need_n and_o we_o perceive_v that_o the_o better_a in_o jesus_n christ_n inasmuch_o as_o he_o be_v come_v near_o unto_o we_o and_o be_v become_v our_o brother_n god_n than_o do_v not_o so_o reign_v by_o the_o mean_a of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o he_o shall_v give_v over_o his_o own_o office_n and_o sit_v idle_a in_o heaven_n himself_o it_o be_v a_o lewd_a dotage_n too_o think_v so_o and_o true_o we_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n speak_v thereof_o in_o the_o fifteen_o of_o s._n john_n my_o father_n and_o i_o say_v he_o have_v always_o our_o hand_n at_o work_n there_o he_o show_v that_o the_o ordain_v of_o he_o too_o be_v ruler_n of_o the_o world_n be_v not_o too_o the_o end_n that_o the_o father_n shall_v in_o the_o mean_a while_n sit_v unoccupied_a in_o heaven_n but_o it_o be_v say_v so_o in_o respect_n of_o we_o too_o the_o intent_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o god_n be_v continual_o near_a at_o hand_n too_o we_o when_o we_o seek_v he_o in_o faith_n at_o the_o latter_a day_n and_o after_o the_o judgement_n we_o shall_v have_v new_a eye_n as_z sai_v s._n john_n and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v like_a unto_o god_n 2._o and_o be_v transfigure_v into_o his_o glory_n we_o shall_v see_v he_o as_o he_o be_v which_o thing_n we_o can_v not_o do_v now_o because_o we_o have_v too_o dull_a wit_n wherefore_o it_o be_v enough_o for_o we_o now_o 12._o that_o we_o behold_v he_o as_o in_o a_o glass_n and_o dark_o as_o say_v s._n paul_n and_o that_o we_o know_v he_o in_o part_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o yield_v up_o of_o the_o kingdom_n by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n unto_o god_n his_o father_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v behold_v god_n majesty_n and_o substance_n which_o be_v incomprehensible_a too_o we_o as_o now_o for_o we_o shall_v have_v our_o nature_n change_v and_o we_o shall_v be_v new_a fashion_v in_o the_o heavenly_a glory_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v quite_o and_o clean_o rid_v of_o all_o the_o corruption_n wherewith_o we_o be_v compass_v about_o as_o now_o and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o it_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v abse_z for_o he_o shall_v be_v then_o much_o better_a in_o his_o perfection_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o three_o too_o the_o colossian_n that_o our_o life_n be_v hide_v in_o god_n with_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n appear_v they_o shall_v our_o life_n be_v discover_v likewise_o too_o be_v short_a when_o we_o be_v come_v too_o the_o soverein_o bliss_n that_o be_v purchase_v for_o we_o then_o shall_v we_o have_v the_o thing_n that_o lie_v as_o yet_o but_o in_o hope_n &_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v gather_v all_o thing_n too_o himself_o so_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v then_o partaker_n of_o his_o glory_n every_o man_n according_a too_o his_o own_o degree_n and_o measure_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o these_o two_o text_n agree_v very_o well_o namely_o that_o god_n have_v give_v christ_n a_o name_n above_o all_o name_n and_o also_o that_o he_o shall_v yield_v up_o the_o kingdom_n to_o god_n the_o father_n and_o why_o for_o we_o shall_v then_o see_v his_o heavenly_a majesty_n which_o we_o be_v not_o able_a too_o conceive_v as_o now_o because_o we_o be_v fleshly_a also_o we_o shall_v perceive_v that_o whereas_o jesus_n christ_n be_v appear_v unto_o we_o a_o mortal_a man_n he_o have_v be_v so_o glorify_v in_o his_o humane_a nature_n that_o in_o very_a deed_n he_o be_v god_n of_o oneself_o same_o substance_n with_o his_o father_n this_o say_v i_o shall_v be_v full_o know_v then_o whereas_o now_o we_o have_v but_o a_o little_a shadow_n of_o it_o furthermore_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n be_v exalt_v by_o god_n his_o father_n it_o be_v too_o the_o end_n that_o his_o advancement_n shall_v serve_v too_o our_o everlasting_a salvation_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o ix_o of_o isaiah_n he_o be_v call_v the_o father_n of_o the_o world_n too_o come_v too_o the_o end_n we_o may_v know_v not_o only_o that_o he_o be_v give_v unto_o we_o for_o this_o transitory_a life_n but_o also_o that_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o faith_n which_o be_v ground_v in_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o that_o there_o we_o shall_v feel_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v now_o hide_a and_o which_o we_o taste_v as_o yet_o but_o in_o part_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v enter_v into_o full_a possession_n of_o all_o the_o good_n that_o be_v give_v too_o he_o already_o thus_o you_o see_v why_o s._n paul_n have_v purposely_o make_v express_a mention_n of_o the_o world_n too_o come_v he_o add_v immediate_o that_o god_n have_v put_v all_o thing_n under_o his_o foot_n and_o make_v he_o head_n of_o the_o church_n above_o all_o thing_n his_o speak_v here_o of_o the_o

succour_v we_o for_o he_o have_v wherewith_o too_o do_v it_o yea_o and_o
we_o must_v mark_v well_o how_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o eight_o psalm_n that_o god_n have_v care_n of_o all_o thing_n yea_o even_o unto_o the_o sheep_n too_o the_o bird_n of_o the_o air_n and_o too_o the_o fish_n of_o the_o sea_n too_o be_v short_a all_o creature_n be_v put_v under_o his_o foot_n and_o too_o what_o end_n for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n mean_v too_o draw_v we_o thereby_o as_o

morsel_n of_o bread_n as_o our_o own_o without_o theft_n save_v in_o that_o we_o be_v member_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n now_o then_o we_o see_v whereat_o s._n paul_n amed_z in_o say_v that_o all_o thing_n be_v make_v subject_a too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v now_o too_o give_v god_n thanks_n in_o the_o name_n of_o his_o only_a son_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o he_o have_v send_v not_o only_o too_o feed_v and_o nourish_v our_o body_n but_o also_o too_o be_v food_n too_o our_o soul_n that_o they_o may_v live_v everlasting_o and_o by_o that_o mean_a let_v we_o learn_v too_o inure_v ourselves_o to_o acknowledge_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v wherewith_o too_o succour_v all_o our_o necessity_n then_o if_o the_o devil_n make_v so_o violent_a assault_n upon_o we_o as_o we_o may_v be_v afraid_a of_o utter_a quail_v let_v we_o understand_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v a_o invincible_a fortress_n wherewith_o too_o defend_v we_o against_o he_o and_o army_n wherewith_o too_o make_v we_o invincible_a in_o all_o battle_n therefore_o when_o we_o be_v weak_a let_v we_o resort_v too_o his_o strength_n when_o we_o want_v any_o grace_n let_v we_o desire_v he_o too_o give_v we_o what_o he_o think_v necessary_a when_o our_o enemy_n play_v the_o mad_a beast_n and_o it_o seem_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v quite_o and_o clean_o swallow_v up_o as_o it_o be_v in_o gulf_n let_v we_o beseech_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n too_o hold_v we_o under_o his_o protection_n and_o too_o hold_v satan_n as_o it_o be_v chain_v with_o all_o his_o upholder_n so_o as_o he_o suffer_v we_o not_o too_o be_v overcome_v of_o of_o they_o you_o see_v then_o how_o all_o thing_n be_v make_v subject_a to_o our_o

shall_v repress_v they_o as_o he_o well_o can_v furthermore_o whereas_o s._n paul_n say_v here_o that_o he_o be_v ordain_v head_n in_o the_o church_n or_o over_o the_o church_n in_o all_o thing_n it_o

that_o the_o angel_n and_o mortal_a man_n also_o may_v be_v minister_n of_o they_o unto_o we_o but_o yet_o howsoever_o the_o case_n stand_v we_o must_v always_o resort_v too_o the_o welhead_n the_o

howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v the_o brain_n must_v always_o be_v the_o wellspring_n of_o life_n it_o be_v well_o to_o be_v see_v that_o in_o a_o tree_n the_o sap_n be_v spread_v throughout_o and_o

of_o a_o man_n body_n ought_v too_o prejudice_n the_o head_n â–ª_o though_o every_o member_n do_v his_o duty_n here_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v give_v to_o the_o

the_o like_a must_v be_v do_v in_o the_o church_n jesus_n christ_n must_v rule_v and_o all_o man_n must_v quiet_o obey_v he_o and_o so_o we_o have_v too_o mark_v in_o this_o text_n first_o that_o

which_o he_o treat_v of_o continual_o be_v that_o we_o can_v sufficient_o exalt_v our_o god_n consider_v the_o mercy_n that_o he_o use_v towards_o we_o and_o now_o too_o express_v the_o same_o yet_o

when_o other_o folk_n march_v on_o so_o fast_o afore_o and_o run_v so_o cheerful_o toward_o god_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o thing_n in_o effect_n which_o we_o have_v too_o bear_v away_o here_o be_v that_o inasmuch_o as_o god_n have_v not_o call_v we_o eft_o one_o man_n alone_o and_o eft_o another_o as_o though_o he_o mean_v too_o set_v we_o a_o sunder_o but_o direct_v his_o voice_n too_o

we_o must_v not_o do_v so_o but_o when_o we_o see_v the_o mischief_n feed_v and_o increase_v by_o our_o unfaithfulness_n let_v we_o provide_v for_o it_o and_o let_v every_o man_n be_v compel_v too_o

the_o very_a mean_a to_o rid_v away_o the_o plague_n that_o satan_n will_v have_v maintain_v still_o by_o silence_n and_o dissimulation_n therefore_o whensoever_o we_o perceive_v any_o imposthume_n

remedy_n so_o little_a then_o do_v baptism_n hinder_v we_o from_o come_v too_o the_o son_n of_o god_n so_o we_o be_v able_a too_o apply_v it_o too_o our_o behoof_n or_o keep_v our_o faith_n from_o

saint_n paul_n too_o redress_v it_o say_v that_o we_o have_v our_o wash_n warrant_v in_o baptim_n under_o the_o figure_n of_o water_n yea_o but_o yet_o must_v we_o have_v a_o eye_n too_o the_o word_n

and_o think_v that_o the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o baptism_n be_v inclose_v in_o those_o word_n it_o be_v a_o abuse_n and_o true_o it_o can_v not_o serve_v we_o but_o for_o a_o charm_n and_o

trubble_v we_o night_n and_o day_n without_o cease_v that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n say_v express_o that_o we_o must_v resist_v till_o we_o have_v finish_v and_o perform_v all_o
