know_v how_o to_o strike_v a_o dog_n his_o faithfulness_n make_v he_o bold_a and_o a_o bold_a prophet_n be_v good_a but_o a_o bold_a man_n and_o a_o cold_a prophet_n be_v both_o naught_o christ_n

&_o sharpness_n and_o how_o good_a say_v solomon_n be_v a_o word_n speak_v in_o season_n pro._n 15._o it_o be_v like_o a_o sweet_a shower_n that_o come_v after_o a_o drought_n or_o like_o a_o light_n that_o shine_v in_o a_o dark_a place_n he_o do_v not_o now_o flatter_v fawn_a or_o fan_v they_o with_o wind_n he_o leave_v that_o unto_o the_o politic_n of_o the_o world_n which_o thorough_o serve_v

purpose_n let_v we_o examine_v his_o answer_n he_o that_o have_v two_o coat_n ●ext_n let_v he_o part_v with_o he_o that_o have_v none_o the_o first_o answer_n be_v to_o the_o multitude_n and_o it_o be_v very_o fit_a and_o apt_a to_o persuade_v they_o to_o be_v merciful_a which_o seek_v mercy_n themselves_o ob._n but_o for_o all_o that_o it_o seem_v scarce_o sound_a and_o perfect_a counsel_n whereof_o the_o people_n can_v receive_v no_o profit_n for_o god_n be_v not_o please_v with_o good_a deed_n for_o our_o ill_n as_o if_o there_o be_v a_o law_n to_o bind_v he_o either_o to_o accept_v or_o to_o except_o the_o one_o for_o the_o other_o as_o the_o jew_n do_v think_v he_o bind_v by_o the_o law_n for_o sin_n to_o take_v a_o sacrifice_n and_o for_o a_o soul_n so._n a_o sheep_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a that_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o all_o the_o law_n which_o may_v comfort_v the_o offender_n because_o he_o be_v under_o the_o curse_n and_o therefore_o if_o he_o have_v shape_v his_o answer_n out_o of_o the_o law_n he_o may_v have_v answer_v thus_o perish_v and_o despair_n but_o he_o answer_v they_o out_o of_o the_o gospel_n &_o for_o many_o reason_n choose_v the_o work_n of_o charity_n which_o he_o urge_v not_o after_o the_o law_n but_o after_o the_o gospel_n and_o therefore_o this_o exhortation_n depend_v upon_o another_o principle_n and_o on_o a_o new_a law_n where_o to_o the_o repentant_a his_o sin_n be_v assure_v to_o be_v remit_v and_o in_o lieu_n of_o thankfulness_n a_o better_a life_n be_v enjoin_v wherefore_o he_o do_v not_o further_o reproove_v they_o now_o but_o spare_v they_o that_o as_o john_n the_o evangelist_n after_o the_o voice_n of_o thunder_n hear_v the_o voice_n of_o harper_n from_o heaven_n revel_v 14._o 2._o so_o these_o may_v hear_v of_o john_n the_o baptist_n after_o anger_n favour_n and_o may_v see_v after_o fire_n water_n and_o receive_v after_o commination_n exhortation_n wherein_o he_o handle_v they_o so_o tender_o as_o the_o samaritan_n do_v the_o wound_a man_n pour_v in_o old_a wine_n and_o not_o new_a for_o fear_v of_o break_v their_o old_a bottle_n for_o he_o know_v that_o the_o bruise_a reed_n must_v not_o be_v be_v break_v nor_o the_o smoke_a flax_n be_v quench_v isay._n 42._o 3._o and_o therefore_o will_v they_o rather_o to_o break_v their_o sin_n by_o almsdeed_n as_o david_n do_v persuade_v nabuchadnezar_n dan._n 4._o 24._o not_o with_o any_o goat_n offer_v unto_o god_n but_o with_o some_o coat_n give_v to_o poor_a man_n sacrifice_n be_v ceremony_n which_o have_v their_o time_n but_o love_n be_v a_o service_n of_o all_o time_n both_o to_o god_n &_o man_n and_o it_o be_v most_o necessary_o require_v here_o for_o many_o reason_n and_o respect_n first_o for_o the_o multitude_n as_o the_o best_a thing_n in_o their_o case_n for_o perfect_a love_n cast_v out_o fear_n 1._o john_n 4._o 18._o and_o i_o think_v they_o be_v afraid_a second_o for_o the_o church_n who_o necessity_n can_v not_o choose_v but_o be_v infinite_a then_o in_o the_o beginning_n when_o hypocrisy_n and_o tyranny_n have_v possess_v all_o three_o for_o john_n himself_o who_o avoid_v by_o it_o that_o same_o suspicion_n so_o oft_o object_v of_o the_o pharise_n unto_o christ_n that_o he_o speak_v against_o the_o law_n as_o our_o pharise_n handle_v we_o because_o we_o constant_o affirm_v that_o faith_n only_o justifi_v according_a to_o the_o word_n we_o have_v many_o evil_a word_n for_o it_o and_o though_o otherwise_o we_o preach_v and_o teach_v good_a work_n a_o hundred_o time_n yet_o it_o will_v not_o serve_v our_o turn_n for_o they_o conceive_v of_o we_o as_o of_o the_o enemy_n of_o all_o goodness_n where_o as_o it_o be_v not_o the_o good_a work_n but_o the_o merit_n of_o our_o good_a work_n that_o we_o do_v so_o disclaim_v and_o abhor_v last_o it_o serve_v more_o for_o the_o honour_n of_o christ_n when_o such_o a_o multitude_n shall_v be_v turn_v and_o change_v by_o his_o word_n not_o in_o opinion_n only_o which_o often_o fall_v out_o in_o the_o common_a sort_n through_o inconstancy_n and_o temeritie_n but_o by_o good_a work_n and_o such_o as_o kind_o cross_v the_o soul_n of_o a_o earthly_a mind_a man_n and_o for_o the_o which_o many_o do_v depart_v from_o christ_n both_o sorrowful_a and_o sad_a they_o shall_v now_o witness_v to_o the_o world_n that_o they_o esteem_v nothing_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o peace_n and_o quiet_a of_o their_o trouble_a soul_n and_o there_o be_v but_o two_o effect_n of_o true_a repentance_n to_o cease_v from_o evil_a and_o to_o learn_v to_o do_v good_a he_o pursue_v the_o latter_a which_o impli_v the_o former_a he_o may_v have_v say_v love_v you_o one_o another_o but_o lest_o a_o people_n too_o much_o give_v to_o dissimulation_n shall_v only_o answer_v in_o word_n and_o tongue_n he_o call_v they_o as_o john_n do_v his_o hearer_n 1._o john_n 3._o 18._o unto_o the_o deed_n and_o truth_n of_o love._n by_o cloth_n and_o meat_n here_o

certain_a special_a duty_n which_o do_v concern_v one_o and_o not_o another_o but_o to_o give_v to_o the_o poor_a belong_v unto_o all_o christian_n with_o this_o proviso_n if_o they_o have_v it_o for_o john_n count_v it_o a_o disgrace_n in_o the_o church_n which_o be_v the_o house_n of_o god_n to_o see_v one_o man_n with_o two_o coat_n and_o another_o naked_a and_o yet_o both_o one_o man_n servant_n wherefore_o that_o equality_n where_o the_o plenty_n of_o some_o supply_v the_o penury_n of_o other_o some_o be_v christian_n and_o not_o anabaptistical_n 2._o cor._n 8._o 14._o and_o that_o
