scripture_n be_v first_o to_o make_v man_n disciple_n to_o christ_n and_o then_o righteous_a in_o their_o conversation_n for_o this_o be_v the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n ver._n 13._o enter_v you_o in_o at_o the_o strait_a gate_n for_o wide_a be_v the_o gate_n and_o broad_a be_v the_o way_n that_o lead_v to_o destruction_n and_o many_o there_o be_v which_o go_v in_o thereat_o 14._o because_o straight_o be_v the_o gate_n and_o narrow_a be_v the_o way_n which_o lead_v unto_o life_n and_o few_o there_o be_v that_o find_v it_o the_o four_o head_n of_o doctrine_n concern_v the_o difficulty_n of_o the_o way_n to_o heaven_n doct._n 1._o every_o man_n be_v travel_v in_o the_o course_n of_o his_o life_n either_o unto_o life_n or_o to_o destruction_n there_o be_v not_o a_o three_o way_n beside_o the_o strait_a and_o wide_a gate_n 2._o the_o gate_n which_o lead_v unto_o life_n be_v straight_o and_o the_o way_n narrow_a and_o full_a of_o difficulty_n to_o our_o corrupt_a nature_n but_o the_o way_n which_o lead_v unto_o destruction_n be_v broad_a and_o the_o gate_n wide_a without_o impediment_n a_o way_n not_o cross_v man_n corrupt_a lust_n 3._o because_o of_o the_o easiness_n of_o the_o way_n to_o hell_n many_o go_v in_o thereat_o nothing_o fear_v the_o issue_n but_o for_o the_o difficulty_n of_o the_o way_n to_o heaven_n few_o do_v find_v it_o few_o do_v walk_v in_o it_o 4._o christ_n disciple_n have_v this_o straight-way_n reveal_v to_o they_o in_o the_o word_n shall_v choose_v rather_o to_o go_v along_o to_o life_n then_o go_v with_o the_o multitude_n unto_o destruction_n for_o enter_z in_o at_o the_o straight_a gate_n say_v our_o lord_n for_o wide_a be_v the_o other_o ver._n 15._o beware_v of_o false_a prophet_n which_o come_v to_o you_o in_o sheep_n

christ_n bid_v we_o beware_v say_v beware_v of_o false_a prophet_n the_o reason_n be_v three_o which_o yield_v so_o many_o doctrine_n the_o 1._o they_o will_v ●ain_v themselves_o to_o be_v true_a christian_n that_o they_o may_v find_v room_n among_o the_o sheep_n of_o christ_n therefore_o beware_v of_o they_o for_o they_o come_v to_o you_o say_v he_o in_o sheep_n clothing_n 2._o inward_o and_o in_o effect_n such_o teacher_n be_v not_o for_o save_v but_o for_o destroy_v of_o soul_n for_o inward_o they_o be_v raven_a wolf_n 3._o they_o can_v so_o lurk_v but_o you_o may_v discern_v they_o by_o their_o false_a doctrine_n or_o corrupt_a handle_n of_o the_o truth_n or_o by_o their_o graceless_a conversation_n and_o their_o earthly_a way_n and_o end_n you_o shall_v know_v they_o by_o their_o fruit_n say_v he_o therefore_o beware_v of_o they_o ver._n 17._o even_o so_o every_o good_a tree_n bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n but_o a_o corrupt_a tree_n bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n 18._o a_o good_a tree_n can_v bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n neither_o can_v a_o corrupt_a tree_n bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n 19_o every_o tree_n that_o bring_v not_o forth_o good_a fruit_n be_v hew_v down_o and_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n 20._o wherefore_o by_o their_o fruit_n you_o shall_v know_v they_o he_o clear_v and_o confirm_v this_o three_o reason_n by_o a_o similitude_n from_o tree_n teach_v we_o that_o as_o man_n gather_v not_o good_a fruit_n from_o thorn_n and_o thistle_n but_o good_a tree_n bear_v good_a fruit_n and_o can_v bear_v ill_a fruit_n as_o their_o kindly_a and_o ordinary_a birth_n and_o ill_a tree_n bear_v ill_a fruit_n and_o can_v bear_v good_a fruit_n as_o their_o kindly_a birth_n so_o true_a and_o false_a teacher_n be_v to_o be_v know_v by_o their_o fruit_n doct._n 1._o the_o lord_n seal_v the_o honesty_n of_o faithful_a teacher_n with_o a_o holy_a life_n and_o do_v plague_n false_a teacher_n with_o the_o out-breaking_a of_o their_o rottenness_n 2_o as_o destruction_n abide_v the_o tree_n that_o bear_v not_o good_a fruit_n and_o much_o more_o that_o which_o bear_v ill_a fruit_n so_o destruction_n abide_v the_o false_a teacher_n for_o every_o tree_n that_o bring_v not_o forth_o good_a fruit_n be_v hew_v down_o ver._n 21._o not_o every_o one_o that_o say_v unto_o i_o lord_n lord_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o he_o that_o do_v the_o will_n of_o my_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n the_o six_o and_o last_o head_n of_o christ_n sermon_n concern_v the_o necessity_n of_o believe_a and_o obey_v of_o his_o doctrine_n and_o put_v it_o upright_o in_o practice_n which_o our_o lord_n do_v press_v by_o three_o reason_n the_o first_o be_v not_o every_o one_o that_o esteem_v himself_o to_o be_v christ_n servant_n and_o do_v confess_v he_o to_o be_v his_o lord_n shall_v be_v save_v but_o the_o man_n only_o who_o put_v in_o practice_n god_n will_n therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o faith_n and_o obedience_n of_o christ_n doctrine_n be_v careful_o practise_v doct._n 1._o a_o man_n may_v profess_v himself_o a_o christian_n and_o seem_v to_o be_v zealous_a in_o avow_v christ_n to_o be_v his_o lord_n and_o yet_o be_v disobedient_a to_o the_o doctrine_n for_o christ_n word_n do_v import_v this_o that_o some_o may_v call_v he_o lord_n lord_n who_o do_v not_o his_o father_n will_n 2._o professor_n of_o christianity_n without_o the_o practice_n of_o sound_a faith_n and_o repentance_n shall_v be_v exclude_v out_o of_o heaven_n for_o the_o sentence_n be_v clear_a not_o every_o one_o that_o say_v to_o i_o lord_n lord_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n 3._o such_o as_o study_v to_o obey_v god_n will_n reveal_v in_o the_o gospel_n that_o be_v to_o believe_v in_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o to_o testify_v their_o faith_n by_o a_o holy_a conversation_n shall_v be_v sure_o save_v for_o he_o that_o do_v the_o will_n of_o my_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n now_o the_o will_n of_o god_n reveal_v in_o the_o word_n be_v that_o he_o who_o the_o law_n condemn_v shall_v flee_v to_o christ_n jesus_n by_o faith_n and_o study_v to_o bring_v forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o newness_n of_o life_n ver._n 22._o many_o will_v say_v to_o i_o in_o that_o day_n lord_n lord_n have_v we_o not_o prophesy_v in_o thy_o name_n and_o in_o thy_o name_n have_v cast_v out_o devil_n and_o in_o thy_o name_n do_v many_o wonderful_a work_n 23._o and_o then_o will_v i_o profess_v unto_o they_o i_o never_o know_v you_o depart_v from_o i_o you_o that_o work_n iniquity_n the_o second_o reason_n to_o this_o meaning_n many_o conceive_v now_o that_o this_o plea_n of_o be_v prophet_n and_o worker_n of_o miracle_n in_o my_o name_n will_v be_v sufficient_a for_o their_o salvation_n in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n who_o then_o at_o that_o day_n will_v find_v themselves_o disappoint_v of_o their_o hope_n because_o they_o have_v not_o be_v worker_n of_o righteousness_n therefore_o real_a obedience_n of_o my_o doctrine_n be_v necessary_a doctr._n 1._o there_o be_v a_o day_n of_o judgement_n appoint_v for_o all_o man_n when_o christ_n shall_v sit_v as_o judge_n for_o it_o be_v say_v many_o shall_v come_v to_o i_o at_o that_o day_n and_o i_o shall_v say_v i.e._n give_v the_o sentence_n 2._o many_o do_v build_v hope_n of_o heaven_n upon_o great_a gift_n and_o employment_n in_o the_o ministry_n give_v to_o they_o with_o some_o success_n who_o shall_v be_v reject_v of_o christ_n for_o many_o will_v say_v to_o i_o have_v i_o not_o prophesy_v unto_o who_o i_o will_v say_v depart_v from_o i_o 3._o all_o man_n have_v need_v to_o beware_v lest_o they_o deceive_v themselves_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o their_o own_o salvation_n when_o they_o hear_v that_o preacher_n and_o prophet_n and_o worker_n of_o miracle_n deceive_v themselves_o and_o may_v be_v destitute_a of_o save_a faith_n and_o sound_a repentance_n which_o they_o do_v preach_v to_o other_o for_o it_o be_v say_v many_o will_v say_v to_o i_o in_o that_o day_n we_o have_v prophesy_v 4._o such_o as_o christ_n shall_v reject_v at_o the_o last_o day_n be_v never_o endue_v with_o save_v grace_n or_o account_v by_o he_o for_o true_a believer_n for_o christ_n say_v i_o will_v profess_v to_o they_o i_o never_o know_v you_o that_o be_v i_o
