the_o upright_a for_o the_o end_n of_o that_o man_n be_v peace_n and_o in_o the_o next_o verse_n but_o the_o end_n of_o the_o wicked_a shall_v be_v cut_v off_o for_o god_n be_v the_o just_a judge_n of_o the_o world_n it_o can_v be_v otherwise_o but_o that_o between_o the_o end_n of_o the_o godly_a and_o the_o end_n of_o the_o wicked_a there_o must_v needs_o be_v great_a difference_n therefore_o when_o abraham_n pray_v for_o sodom_n that_o it_o may_v be_v spare_v for_o the_o righteous_a sake_n that_o be_v therein_o 18.23.25_o gen._n 18.23.25_o will_v thou_o say_v he_o gen._n 18._o destroy_v the_o righteous_a with_o the_o wicked_a that_o be_v far_o from_o thou_o to_o do_v after_o this_o manner_n to_o slay_v the_o righteous_a with_o the_o wicked_a and_o that_o the_o righteous_a shall_v be_v as_o the_o wicked_a that_o be_v far_o from_o thou_o shall_v not_o the_o judge_n of_o all_o the_o earth_n do_v right_a to_o show_v that_o it_o can_v stand_v with_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n to_o respect_v they_o alike_o and_o to_o make_v no_o difference_n between_o the_o godly_a and_o the_o wicked_a we_o see_v many_o time_n that_o the_o wicked_a do_v flourish_v and_o prosper_v in_o the_o world_n and_o live_v in_o great_a credit_n and_o estimation_n the_o godly_a on_o the_o contrary_a be_v many_o time_n vilify_v and_o privy_o slander_v whereby_o their_o good_a name_n which_o be_v the_o godly_a man_n heir_n be_v much_o call_v into_o question_n but_o god_n who_o never_o fail_v to_o help_v they_o to_o right_a that_o do_v suffer_v wrong_a at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o bring_v the_o wicked_a to_o shame_n and_o make_v the_o innocency_n of_o the_o godly_a know_v this_o be_v that_o which_o god_n promise_v 37.6_o psal_n 37.6_o psal_n 37._o he_o shall_v bring_v forth_o thy_o righteousness_n as_o the_o light_n and_o thy_o judgement_n or_o just_a deal_n as_o the_o noonday_n the_o meaning_n be_v that_o though_o thy_o innocency_n and_o just_a deal_n may_v be_v obscure_v and_o hide_a for_o a_o time_n as_o the_o light_n in_o the_o night_n yet_o god_n will_v bring_v it_o forth_o like_o the_o light_n in_o the_o morning_n and_o make_v it_o more_o and_o more_o to_o appear_v like_o the_o sun_n at_o noon_n whereby_o both_o thy_o innocence_n and_o the_o falsehood_n of_o those_o that_o unjust_o accuse_v thou_o shall_v be_v open_o know_v this_o we_o see_v by_o the_o example_n of_o daniel_n who_o be_v cast_v by_o his_o accuser_n into_o the_o lion_n den_n 3.21_o dan._n 6.16_o dan._n 3.21_o and_o by_o those_o who_o be_v cast_v into_o the_o fiery_a furnace_n yet_o god_n miraculous_o make_v know_v their_o innocency_n and_o bring_v those_o that_o accuse_v they_o to_o shame_n and_o destruction_n it_o be_v very_o memorable_a which_o we_o find_v record_v to_o this_o purpose_n in_o the_o ecclesiastical_a history_n three_o grace_n le●e_a companion_n accuse_v narcissus_n a_o holy_a bishop_n of_o a_o heinous_a crime_n and_o use_v fearful_a imprecation_n against_o

of_o some_o grievous_a disease_n and_o the_o three_o wish_v that_o he_o may_v lose_v his_o sight_n and_o not_o long_o after_o god_n be_v revenge_v on_o every_o one_o of_o they_o in_o the_o same_o

be_v describe_v as_o you_o have_v hear_v both_o by_o his_o property_n that_o he_o cover_v his_o sin_n and_o by_o his_o condition_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o prosper_v the_o penitent_a person_n be_v

they_o in_o a_o word_n or_o two_o those_o word_n of_o st._n john_n 1.9_o 1_o john_n 1.9_o if_o we_o confess_v our_o sin_n he_o be_v faithful_a and_o just_a to_o forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n and_o to_o cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o unrighteousness_n be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o commentary_n upon_o my_o text_n and_o the_o one_o place_n may_v serve_v well_o to_o explain_v the_o other_o st._n john_n name_v only_o our_o confess_v our_o sin_n if_o say_v he_o we_o confess_v our_o sin_n imply_v under_o confess_v our_o sin_n our_o forsake_v of_o they_o because_o as_o st._n ambrose_n say_v confessio_fw-la peccati_fw-la est_fw-la professio_fw-la desinendi_fw-la our_o confess_v of_o sin_n be_v a_o profession_n of_o leave_v the_o same_o solomon_n in_o my_o text_n do_v name_v they_o both_o who_o so_o confess_v and_o forsake_v his_o sin_n and_o so_o express_v what_o st._n john_n imply_v and_o solomon_n add_v that_o he_o shall_v have_v mercy_n but_o what_o mercy_n he_o do_v not_o show_v st._n john_n therefore_o show_v what_o this_o mercy_n be_v that_o god_n will_v forgive_v he_o his_o sin_n and_o will_v cleanse_v he_o from_o all_o unrighteousness_n which_o you_o know_v be_v the_o great_a mercy_n for_o if_o we_o consider_v how_o high_o god_n be_v offend_v with_o sinner_n how_o deep_o we_o be_v indebt_v unto_o god_n by_o our_o sin_n or_o the_o great_a benefit_n we_o reap_v by_o god_n forgive_a we_o we_o can_v but_o see_v god_n infinite_a mercy_n in_o forgive_a our_o sin_n upon_o so_o easy_a a_o condition_n and_o require_v no_o more_o of_o we_o for_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n but_o that_o we_o confess_v they_o if_o a_o creditor_n shall_v require_v no_o more_o of_o his_o debtor_n that_o be_v indebt_v in_o a_o great_a sum_n unto_o he_o but_o to_o acknowledge_v the_o debt_n &_o he_o will_v free_o forgive_v he_o will_v not_o every_o man_n magnify_v the_o creditor_n bounty_n in_o release_n his_o debtor_n upon_o so_o easy_a a_o condition_n but_o thus_o deal_v god_n with_o we_o he_o require_v no_o more_o of_o we_o but_o to_o confess_v our_o sin_n and_o promise_n to_o forgive_v we_o if_o say_v st._n john_n we_o confess_v our_o sin_n god_n be_v faithful_a and_o just_a to_o forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n faithful_a and_o just_a and_o so_o we_o need_v not_o make_v any_o doubt_n thereof_o because_o his_o faithfulness_n and_o justice_n be_v engage_v upon_o it_o but_o some_o may_v say_v it_o may_v seem_v that_o see_v god_n be_v just_a he_o shall_v rather_o punish_v we_o then_o forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n because_o his_o justice_n require_v that_o we_o make_v he_o satisfaction_n and_o that_o he_o reward_v we_o according_a to_o our_o desert_n we_o be_v therefore_o to_o remember_v that_o confession_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o faith_n in_o christ_n for_o the_o pardon_n of_o they_o do_v always_o go_v together_o so_o that_o we_o can_v true_o confess_v our_o sin_n but_o we_o must_v needs_o have_v a_o eye_n unto_o christ_n for_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n god_n therefore_o can_v but_o forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n because_o he_o be_v just_a for_o otherwise_o he_o shall_v be_v unjust_a to_o his_o son_n who_o have_v make_v satisfaction_n to_o god_n in_o our_o room_n and_o by_o his_o active_a and_o passive_a obedience_n have_v merit_v for_o we_o that_o our_o sin_n shall_v be_v forgive_v and_o herein_o appear_v the_o admirable_a wisdom_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n in_o so_o contrive_v the_o work_n of_o our_o redemption_n that_o his_o justice_n shall_v plead_v for_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n which_o plead_v before_o for_o our_o condemnation_n for_o if_o you_o ask_v why_o god_n shall_v condemn_v we_o for_o our_o sin_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o be_v just_a and_o justice_n require_v that_o have_v offend_v he_o we_o shall_v make_v he_o satisfaction_n and_o yet_o if_o you_o ask_v why_o he_o shall_v forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n the_o reason_n be_v here_o give_v by_o st._n john_n because_o he_o be_v just_a and_o justice_n require_v that_o christ_n have_v make_v satisfaction_n for_o we_o we_o shall_v be_v forgive_v and_o so_o we_o see_v what_o mercy_n it_o be_v which_o he_o shall_v have_v who_o confess_v his_o

prosper_v and_o thrive_v the_o better_a while_o they_o conceal_v their_o sin_n which_o if_o they_o be_v know_v will_v impair_v their_o credit_n and_o estimation_n but_o god_n cross_v they_o in_o that_o which_o they_o most_o desire_v 7.21_o josh_n 7.21_o for_o they_o shall_v not_o prosper_v no_o doubt_n but_o achan_n think_v to_o prosper_v the_o better_a when_o he_o steal_v the_o two_o hundred_o shekel_n of_o silver_n the_o wedge_n of_o gold_n and_o the_o babylonish_n garment_n and_o hide_v they_o in_o his_o tent_n but_o it_o thrive_v not_o with_o he_o 7.25_o josh_n 7.25_o for_o god_n bring_v it_o to_o light_n and_o achan_n be_v stone_v to_o death_n for_o it_o no_o doubt_n but_o gehazi_n think_v to_o prosper_v the_o better_a by_o the_o bribe_n he_o take_v of_o naaman_n 5.23_o 2_o king_n 5.23_o and_o will_v not_o confess_v that_o he_o have_v take_v they_o but_o it_o thrive_v not_o with_o he_o for_o though_o he_o ●id_v his_o sin_n 5.27_o 2_o king_n 5.27_o yet_o he_o can_v not_o hide_v his_o leprosy_n which_o he_o get_v with_o they_o no_o doubt_n but_o jezabel_n think_v to_o prosper_v the_o better_a when_o she_o cause_v naboth_n to_o be_v stone_v to_o death_n and_o

with_o she_o for_o god_n bring_v it_o to_o light_n and_o she_o to_o a_o miserable_a end_n for_o it_o so_o herod_n no_o doubt_n think_v to_o prosper_v the_o better_a when_o hear_v that_o the_o king_n

bring_v to_o light_v his_o murderous_a intent_n and_o himself_o to_o shame_n and_o disgrace_n by_o it_o and_o not_o to_o instance_n in_o too_o many_o example_n the_o scribe_n and_o pharisees_n no_o

god_n find_v they_o out_o and_o bring_v they_o to_o light_v that_o cover_v their_o sin_n not_o suffer_v they_o to_o prosper_v and_o so_o cross_v they_o in_o that_o which_o they_o most_o desire_n yet_o when_o or_o wherein_o they_o shall_v not_o prosper_v be_v not_o here_o set_v down_o but_o only_o in_o general_a that_o they_o shall_v not_o prosper_v to_o the_o intent_n that_o they_o may_v never_o

child_n or_o in_o their_o good_n or_o in_o their_o good_a name_n or_o in_o they_o all_o together_o second_o here_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o to_o prosper_v be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n who_o therefore_o deny_v it_o to_o they_o that_o sin_n against_o he_o by_o cover_v their_o sin_n therefore_o the_o psalmist_n say_v of_o the_o godly_a man_n that_o look_v whatsoever_o he_o do_v it_o shall_v prosper_v 1.3_o psal_n 1.3_o but_o for_o the_o ungodly_a he_o say_v it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o they_o so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o joseph_n that_o he_o be_v a_o prosperous_a man_n 39.3_o gen._n 39.3_o and_o that_o the_o lord_n make_v all_o that_o he_o do_v to_o prosper_v in_o his_o hand_n so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o that_o good_a king_n hezekiah_n that_o the_o lord_n be_v with_o he_o 18.7_o 2_o king_n 18.7_o and_o he_o prosper_v whither_o soever_o he_o go_v forth_o i_o may_v instance_n in_o other_o but_o some_o man_n may_v say_v may_v not_o the_o like_o be_v say_v of_o the_o wicked_a do_v not_o they_o often_o prosper_v in_o the_o world_n and_o have_v success_n in_o that_o which_o they_o take_v in_o hand_n 21.7.9_o job_n 21.7.9_o be_v it_o not_o for_o this_o which_o job_n complain_v that_o the_o wicked_a be_v mighty_a in_o pomer_n that_o they_o spend_v their_o day_n in_o mirth_n that_o their_o house_n be_v safe_a from_o fear_n and_o that_o the_o rod_n of_o god_n be_v not_o upon_o they_o and_o be_v it_o not_o for_o this_o that_o david_n envy_v the_o wicked_a that_o they_o prosper_v in_o the_o world_n 3.12_o psal_n 7_o 3.12_o that_o they_o have_v riches_n in_o possession_n and_o that_o they_o come_v in_o no_o misfortune_n like_o other_o man_n we_o must_v therefore_o understand_v first_o that_o though_o to_o prosper_v be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n yet_o in_o his_o wisdom_n he_o give_v in_o sometime_o to_o the_o godly_a and_o sometime_o to_o the_o wicked_a for_o that_o which_o st._n augustine_n say_v of_o wealth_n may_v be_v say_v of_o prosperity_n ne_o putetur_fw-la

none_o but_o the_o godly_a the_o wicked_a will_v be_v ready_a to_o object_v against_o they_o that_o they_o therefore_o serve_v god_n because_o god_n will_v prosper_v they_o and_o that_o otherwise_o they_o will_v be_v as_o ungodly_a as_o other_o whereas_o the_o godly_a indeed_o do_v as_o well_o serve_v god_n in_o the_o time_n of_o adversity_n as_o they_o do_v in_o prosperity_n as_o job_n when_o all_o that_o he_o have_v be_v take_v from_o he_o do_v bless_v god_n as_o well_o as_o he_o do_v when_o he_o have_v they_o the_o lord_n say_v he_o have_v give_v and_o the_o lord_n have_v take_v bless_a

be_v great_a difference_n between_o their_o prosperity_n for_o the_o prosperity_n of_o the_o wicked_a continue_v not_o long_o but_o be_v soon_o go_v they_o may_v cover_v their_o sin_n and_o prosper_v for_o a_o time_n but_o god_n at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o either_o here_o or_o hereafter_o bring_v their_o sin_n to_o light_n and_o themfelve_n to_o confusion_n therefore_o solomon_n you_o see_v speak_v not_o here_o of_o the_o present_a time_n but_o of_o the_o future_a he_o do_v not_o say_v they_o do_v not_o but_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o prosper_v because_o though_o they_o may_v prosper_v for_o a_o while_n in_o this_o world_n yet_o at_o last_o they_o come_v to_o a_o miserable_a end_n and_o miserable_a you_o know_v be_v that_o prosperity_n which_o end_v in_o misery_n such_o be_v the_o
