and_o all_o we_o have_v yet_o we_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o defend_v our_o faith_n and_o maintain_v our_o religion_n a_o good_a soldier_n will_v look_v to_o defend_v his_o head_n special_o so_o must_v we_o look_v to_o christ_n that_o he_o and_o his_o gospel_n be_v defend_v whatsoever_o become_v of_o we_o so_o do_v the_o martyr_n revel_v 6.9_o they_o be_v kill_v for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v and_o the_o testimony_n they_o maintain_v the_o second_o work_n to_o be_v do_v in_o this_o fight_n be_v offensive_a we_o must_v fight_v against_o our_o adversary_n and_o here_o our_o first_o reach_n must_v be_v to_o win_v they_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a but_o if_o we_o can_v do_v this_o than_o second_o we_o be_v to_o seek_v to_o overthrow_v they_o in_o their_o course_n and_o practice_n yea_o and_o in_o their_o person_n too_o if_o we_o have_v a_o warrantable_a call_n from_o god_n three_o we_o be_v to_o stop_v their_o mouth_n that_o they_o may_v not_o just_o be_v open_v against_o we_o and_o the_o best_a mean_n to_o do_v this_o be_v by_o our_o holy_a conversation_n so_o say_v the_o apostle_n 1_o pet._n 2.15_o that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o by_o well_o do_v we_o put_v to_o silence_n do_v the_o ignorance_n of_o foolish_a man_n second_o we_o must_v consider_v in_o this_o fight_n how_o we_o must_v do_v it_o first_o it_o must_v be_v do_v in_o a_o simple_a wisdom_n so_o our_o saviour_n teach_v we_o matth._n 10_o 16._o behold_v i_o send_v you_o as_o sheep_n among_o wolf_n be_v therefore_o wise_a as_o serpent_n and_o innocent_a as_o dove_n policy_n and_o wisdom_n be_v necessary_a in_o every_o ●ight_n and_o ●o_o it_o be_v in_o this_o but_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n we_o turn_v they_o not_o into_o craft_n and_o subtlety_n but_o let_v they_o be_v such_o as_o may_v come_v from_o a_o single_a and_o simple_a heart_n second_o all_o we_o do_v in_o manage_v this_o battle_n must_v be_v do_v in_o holiness_n we_o must_v still_o be_v consult_v with_o god_n by_o prayer_n as_o david_n do_v psal_n 69.13_o when_o the_o wicked_a speak_v against_o he_o he_o make_v his_o prayer_n to_o god_n and_o psal_n 109.4_o he_o say_v for_o my_o friendship_n they_o be_v my_o enemy_n but_o i_o give_v myself_o to_o prayer_n three_o it_o must_v be_v do_v in_o meekness_n after_o the_o example_n of_o our_o saviour_n of_o who_o the_o apostle_n say_v 1_o peter_n 2.23_o that_o when_o he_o be_v revile_v revile_v not_o again_o when_o he_o suffer_v he_o threaten_v not_o but_o commit_v it_o to_o he_o that_o judge_v righteous_o we_o must_v not_o render_v evil_a for_o evil_n nor_o curse_v for_o curse_n but_o contrariwise_o we_o must_v bless_v as_o the_o same_o apostle_n teach_v we_o 1_o pet._n 3.9_o four_o that_o we_o do_v must_v be_v do_v in_o pity_n and_o compassion_n though_o they_o have_v no_o pity_n on_o we_o nor_o on_o themselves_o yet_o we_o must_v pity_v they_o because_o we_o see_v they_o run_v to_o hell_n and_o destruction_n and_o that_o satan_n have_v they_o in_o his_o clutch_n thus_o our_o saviour_n have_v pity_n on_o jerusalem_n though_o they_o be_v his_o bitter_a enemy_n and_o weep_v for_o they_o luk._n 19_o 41._o and_o thus_o he_o have_v compassion_n on_o they_o that_o crucify_v he_o luk._n 23.24_o father_n forgive_v they_o they_o know_v not_o what_o they_o do_v here_o be_v a_o compassionate_a heart_n indeed_o five_o we_o must_v do_v it_o in_o obedience_n to_o god_n ordinance_n as_o be_v our_o portion_n so_o do_v jerem._n chap._n 10.19_o we_o be_v i_o say_v he_o for_o my_o destruction_n and_o my_o grievous_a plague_n but_o i_o think_v it_o be_v my_o sorrow_n and_o i_o will_v bear_v it_o six_o we_o must_v do_v it_o in_o zeal_n for_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n as_o david_n do_v psal_n 69.9_o the_o zeal_n of_o thy_o house_n have_v eat_v i_o up_o and_o so_o our_o saviour_n in_o joh._n 2.14_o when_o he_o see_v man_n defile_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n with_o buy_v and_o sell_v he_o make_v a_o whip_n of_o small_a cord_n and_o drive_v they_o all_o out_o and_o this_o he_o do_v in_o zeal_n to_o god_n house_n vers_fw-la 17._o seven_o we_o must_v do_v it_o with_o cheerfulness_n and_o good_a courage_n quit_v you_o like_o man_n say_v the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 16.13_o eight_o it_o must_v be_v do_v in_o faith_n so_o say_v the_o apostle_n 1_o pet._n 5.9_o who_o resist_v steadfast_a in_o the_o faith_n nine_o it_o must_v be_v don●_n with_o watchfulness_n be_v sober_a and_o watch_n 1_o pet._n 5.8_o ten_o it_o must_v be_v do_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n that_o be_v in_o his_o power_n and_o in_o his_o strength_n psal_n 118_o 10_o 11_o 12_o 13._o the_o prophet_n say_v all_o nation_n have_v compass_v i_o but_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v i_o destroy_v they_o they_o have_v compass_v i_o they_o have_v compass_v i_o but_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v i_o destroy_v they_o etc._n etc._n and_o thus_o he_o encounter_v goliath_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n 1_o sam._n 17.45_o we_o must_v disdain_v all_o other_o matter_n and_o say_v as_o the_o same_o prophet_n do_v psal_n 20.7_o some_o trust_n in_o horse_n and_o some_o in_o chariot_n but_o we_o will_v remember_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n eleventh_a it_o must_v be_v do_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lamb_n reu._n 12.11_o that_o be_v in_o a_o true_a conformity_n to_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n when_o they_o oppose_v we_o we_o must_v labour_v what_o we_o can_v to_o be_v make_v thereby_o comformable_a to_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n this_o be_v the_o way_n to_o overcome_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lamb_n tweluethly_fw-mi we_o must_v do_v it_o by_o give_v they_o no_o advantage_n but_o we_o must_v prevent_v they_o every_o way_n as_o they_o every_o

twenty_o that_o have_v be_v foil_v therefore_o we_o must_v fight_v a_o good_a fight_n because_o the_o cause_n be_v good_a reas_n 2_o second_o god_n glory_n be_v the_o chief_a matter_n we_o fight_v for_o and_o there_o be_v no_o hope_n to_o get_v glory_n to_o god_n but_o by_o good_a mean_n and_o by_o practise_v his_o own_o instruction_n reas_n 3_o three_o we_o seek_v our_o own_o good_a and_o safety_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v most_o wary_o and_o religious_o to_o be_v labour_v in_o and_o we_o must_v contemn_v all_o meane●_n in_o this_o fight_n to_o procure_v good_a to_o ourselves_o except_o they_o be_v procure_v by_o such_o mean_n as_o be_v please_v to_o god_n reas_n 4_o four_o we_o have_v a_o promise_n from_o god_n of_o a_o happy_a victory_n and_o of_o a_o crown_n of_o glory_n if_o we_o fight_v a_o good_a fight_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o make_v ourselves_o uncapable_a of_o it_o either_o by_o neglect_v any_o good_a course_n in_o this_o

with_o god_n own_o strength_n and_o arm_v with_o god_n own_o weapon_n david_n have_v a_o sore_a enemy_n of_o saul_n and_o in_o the_o 1_o sam._n 24.5_o 6_o 7._o we_o may_v read_v that_o he_o have_v a_o

to_o deliver_v god_n himself_o as_o much_o as_o in_o we_o lie_v and_o his_o cause_n and_o religion_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o enemy_n if_o we_o be_v oppose_v in_o a_o outward_a fight_n as_o man_n we_o be_v ready_a to_o take_v up_o arm_n and_o to_o strike_v again_o and_o to_o make_v all_o resistance_n where_o we_o shall_v not_o but_o in_o this_o case_n we_o shall_v rather_o yield_v and_o

fight_v lawful_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 2_o tim._n 2_o 5._o that_o be_v as_o we_o must_v fight_v on_o a_o good_a ground_n so_o we_o must_v fight_v by_o good_a and_o lawful_a mean_n when_o we_o
