that_o our_o spiritual_a enemy_n do_v not_o overcome_v us._n for_o every_o christian_a have_v two_o sort_n of_o enemy_n as_o david_n have_v bodily_a and_o spiritual_a our_o spiritual_a enemy_n be_v our_o sin_n and_o the_o temptation_n of_o the_o world_n the_o flesh_n and_o the_o devil_n which_o fight_n against_o the_o soul_n as_o s._n peter_n say_v 2.11_o now_o these_o do_v often_o trouble_v the_o child_n of_o god_n rebel_a against_o they_o 7.23_o and_o many_o time_n lead_v they_o captive_n to_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n yet_o final_o they_o do_v not_o triumph_v against_o they_o because_o they_o do_v not_o willing_o yield_v themselves_o to_o sin_n with_o delight_n in_o sin_n as_o the_o wicked_a do_v but_o they_o do_v continual_o strive_v against_o they_o by_o earnest_a prayer_n unto_o god_n by_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n 8.37_o and_o by_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n they_o be_v make_v more_o than_o conqueror_n in_o the_o end_n as_o s._n paul_n teach_v in_o his_o doctrine_n to_o the_o rom._n by_o this_o i_o know_v that_o thou_o favour_v i_o etc._n etc._n without_o doubt_v the_o prophet_n david_n have_v need_n of_o many_o blessing_n more_o which_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o bestow_v upon_o he_o but_o keep_v they_o back_o from_o he_o and_o all_o to_o humble_v he_o and_o yet_o he_o do_v not_o murmur_v against_o god_n for_o the_o want_n of_o they_o but_o give_v he_o thanks_o for_o those_o which_o he_o have_v already_o receive_v although_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o suffer_v he_o to_o take_v any_o rest_n because_o of_o his_o enemy_n yet_o he_o praise_v god_n because_o they_o do_v not_o triumph_v against_o he_o a_o good_a lesson_n for_o we_o to_o learn_v when_o you_o e_o lord_n shall_v afflict_v we_o with_o any_o manner_n of_o affliction_n as_o loss_n of_o good_n loss_n of_o friend_n loss_n of_o health_n or_o whatsoever_o else_o we_o shall_v remember_v then_o what_o benefit_n we_o have_v still_o which_o we_o be_v unworthy_a of_o then_o thus_o may_v

purpose_n and_o thou_o do_v raise_v up_o friend_n unto_o us._n though_o atheist_n scoffer_n &_o worldly_a beast_n do_v rout_n at_o thy_o preacher_n yet_o thou_o do_v not_o let_v they_o discourage_v they_o whereby_o we_o know_v that_o thou_o love_v us._n and_o have_v the_o lord_n take_v away_o thy_o good_n etc._n etc._n yet_o remember_v that_o he_o have_v gruen_v thou_o leave_v to_o enjoy_v thy_o

so_o we_o may_v say_v for_o matter_n of_o reformation_n although_o every_o thing_n be_v not_o in_o all_o respect_n as_o it_o shall_v be_v and_o as_o if_o be_v to_o be_v wish_v yet_o let_v we_o thank_v

let_v we_o thank_v his_o majesty_n for_o they_o and_o not_o as_o some_o do_v which_o for_o the_o want_n of_o some_o thing_n condemn_v all_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v because_o the_o church_n forsooth_o be_v not_o so_o pure_o purge_v as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v therefore_o we_o have_v no_o church_n no_o minister_n no_o sacrament_n etc._n etc._n as_o it_o please_v our_o schismatics_n to_o

good_a brother_n be_v this_o to_o show_v ourselves_o thankful_a for_o that_o we_o have_v receive_v shall_v we_o acknowledge_v nothing_o good_a because_o all_o be_v not_o perfect_a we_o aught_o to_o
