have_v promise_v we_o shall_v and_o have_v our_o lot_n among_o the_o saint_n why_o shall_v we_o now_o fear_v to_o be_v revile_v of_o man_n or_o be_v repute_v ignominious_a as_o our_o saviour_n and_o his_o apostle_n be_v if_o they_o have_v so_o will_v they_o do_v you_o also_o the_o scholar_n be_v not_o above_o the_o master_n nor_o the_o servant_n above_o his_o lord_n if_o they_o call_v the_o master_n of_o the_o family_n beelzebub_n so_o will_v they_o do_v his_o servant_n therefore_o we_o must_v with_o the_o apostle_n rejoice_v as_o you_o read_v in_o the_o act_n they_o do_v because_o they_o be_v account_v worthy_a to_o suffer_v contumely_n and_o reproach_n if_o contumely_n and_o reproach_n seem_v so_o hard_a for_o we_o to_o undergo_v now_o for_o a_o good_a cause_n as_o be_v our_o conscience_n before_o a_o few_o enemy_n what_o contumely_n must_v those_o undergo_v who_o for_o now_o act_v against_o their_o conscience_n shall_v undergo_v at_o the_o great_a judgement_n before_o god_n angel_n saint_n devil_n and_o all_o the_o damn_a in_o hell_n if_o for_o our_o reproach_n now_o we_o hope_v that_o after_o a_o short_a sorrow_n god_n will_v honour_v we_o so_o as_o to_o wipe_v away_o with_o his_o own_o hand_n every_o tear_n from_o our_o eye_n as_o he_o promise_v in_o the_o revelation_n he_o will_v and_o that_o henceforth_o there_o shall_v be_v neither_o grief_n nor_o labour_n nor_o pain_n or_o the_o like_a why_o shall_v any_o now_o grieve_v either_o to_o see_v himself_o or_o other_o suffer_v it_o will_v not_o last_v this_o tempest_n will_v soon_o be_v over_o and_o if_o now_o in_o this_o storm_n the_o small_a vessel_n of_o my_o body_n suffer_v shipwreck_n or_o some_o other_o the_o like_a vessel_n if_o our_o soul_n can_v but_o carry_v off_o our_o good_n of_o faith_n hope_n and_o charity_n all_o be_v very_o well_o for_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o vessel_n of_o our_o body_n sink_v our_o soul_n will_v come_v to_o shore_n at_o the_o land_n of_o promise_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v secure_v in_o the_o rock_n which_o be_v christ_n and_o ever_o remain_v safe_a in_o the_o eternal_a hill_n where_o neither_o wind_n nor_o wave_n of_o persecution_n can_v ever_o reach_v to_o assault_v we_o then_o welcome_a shipwreck_n that_o sink_v the_o vessel_n of_o the_o body_n to_o bring_v the_o passenger_n and_o their_o good_n so_o happy_o to_o the_o haven_n the_o heaven_n of_o bliss_n let_v we_o therefore_o weigh_v these_o thing_n in_o a_o prudential_a balance_n and_o see_v which_o scale_n be_v the_o heavy_a of_o present_a fear_n or_o future_a hope_n of_o present_a suffering_n or_o future_a glory_n let_v we_o remember_v our_o saviour_n word_n to_o his_o apostle_n you_o be_v those_o that_o remain_v with_o i_o in_o my_o temptation_n or_o trial_n for_o which_o say_v he_o their_o reward_n be_v he_o dispose_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n to_o they_o partner_n in_o suffering_n partner_n in_o gloule_n which_o if_o well_o consider_v we_o shall_v say_v with_o st._n paul_n the_o suffering_n of_o this_o present_a time_n be_v not_o condign_a or_o of_o equality_n to_o the_o future_a glory_n which_o shall_v be_v reveal_v in_o we_o and_o we_o shall_v with_o his_o joyful_a spirit_n say_v 2_o cor._n 4_o 17._o our_o light_a affliction_n which_o be_v but_o for_o a_o moment_n work_v in_o we_o a_o far_o more_o exceed_a and_o eternal_a weight_n of_o glory_n it_o be_v a_o happy_a weight_n that_o lift_v both_o suffering_n and_o sufferer_n up_o as_o high_a as_o heaven_n to_o eternal_a crown_n of_o which_o we_o be_v all_o assure_v of_o as_o a_o reward_n for_o our_o faith_n if_o we_o will_v make_v good_a use_n of_o our_o christian_a hope_n which_o that_o we_o may_v the_o better_a do_v let_v we_o endeavour_v to_o help_v ourselves_o by_o the_o three_o and_o great_a virtue_n that_o follow_v our_o faith_n and_o hope_n which_o be_v charity_n this_o be_v that_o great_a virtue_n of_o which_o all_o sort_n of_o christian_n speak_v much_o understand_v 13._o little_a and_o practice_v less_o though_o without_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a for_o any_o to_o pretend_v to_o have_v a_o save_a faith_n or_o hope_v for_o as_o st._n paul_n say_v 1_o cor._n 13._o though_o he_o speak_v with_o the_o tongue_n of_o man_n and_o angel_n and_o have_v not_o charity_n he_o be_v but_o as_o sound_a brass_n and_o although_o he_o shall_v know_v all_o mystery_n and_o have_v faith_n to_o remove_v mountain_n and_o though_o he_o shall_v have_v such_o hope_n understand_v for_o reward_n that_o he_o shall_v give_v all_o to_o the_o poor_a and_o deliver_v his_o body_n to_o burn_v and_o yet_o not_o have_v charity_n it_o profit_v nothing_o charity_n as_o he_o say_v ver_fw-la 7._o suffer_v all_o thing_n believe_v all_o thing_n hope_v all_o thing_n bear_v all_o thing_n do_v all_o that_o pretend_v to_o charity_n do_v thus_o if_o to_o speak_v with_o the_o tongue_n of_o angel_n without_o charity_n be_v nothing_o but_o vanity_n what_o charity_n be_v there_o in_o those_o that_o speak_v with_o the_o tongue_n of_o detraction_n scandal_n slander_n false-witness_n and_o perjury_n against_o their_o neighbour_n if_o those_o that_o give_v all_o to_o the_o poor_a may_v want_v charity_n so_o that_o all_o which_o they_o give_v profit_v they_o nothing_o what_o charity_n be_v there_o in_o those_o that_o take_v all_o from_o their_o neighbour_n to_o force_v they_o to_o forsake_v their_o faith_n if_o alm_n profit_v nothing_o without_o charity_n can_v such_o injury_n profit_v persecutor_n that_o take_v all_o away-against_a charity_n if_o a_o man_n may_v give_v his_o own_o body_n to_o burn_v and_o yet_o be_v cold_a in_o charity_n what_o charity_n be_v there_o to_o kill_v other_o body_n take_v away_o their_o life_n with_o ignominy_n and_o violence_n because_o they_o will_v not_o kill_v their_o own_o soul_n by_o act_v against_o god_n and_o their_o conscience_n if_o charity_n consist_v only_o in_o those_o that_o suffer_v all_o thing_n believe_v all_o thing_n hope_v all_o thing_n what_o charity_n be_v there_o in_o those_o who_o will_v make_v their_o neighbour_n suffer_v all_o thing_n of_o persecution_n because_o they_o believe_v and_o hope_v according_a to_o their_o conscience_n and_o profess_v their_o faith_n and_o hope_n as_o they_o be_v bind_v before_o god_n upon_o their_o salvation_n so_o to_o do_v it_o be_v certain_a that_o though_o man_n may_v pretend_v persecution_n of_o other_o for_o god_n sake_n to_o reduce_v other_o to_o he_o yet_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o for_o any_o kingdom_n to_o persecute_v any_o mere_o for_o conscience-sake_n be_v against_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o while_o they_o will_v seem_v so_o zealous_o to_o keep_v the_o first_o command_n of_o love_a god_n above_o all_o and_o force_v other_o to_o conform_v to_o their_o opinion_n they_o break_v the_o second_o command_n because_o they_o do_v not_o love_v their_o neighbour_n as_o themselves_o because_o they_o persecute_v they_o and_o so_o they_o dash_v one_o commandment_n against_o the_o other_o and_o so_o crack_v both_o commandment_n together_o for_o wheresoever_o the_o second_o command_n be_v break_v by_o not_o love_v our_o neighbour_n as_o ourselves_o the_o first_o be_v break_v with_o it_o because_o do_v they_o love_v god_n above_o all_o they_o will_v do_v better_o by_o their_o neighbour_n but_o i_o do_v not_o come_v here_o to_o beat_v down_o other_o pretence_n to_o charity_n but_o endeavour_v to_o advance_v charity_n in_o myself_o and_o other_o and_o the_o way_n to_o do_v this_o be_v not_o to_o reckon_v what_o other_o have_v not_o do_v according_a to_o charity_n but_o to_o call_v to_o mind_n what_o other_o have_v do_v to_o raise_v charity_n towards_o god_n and_o their_o neighbour_n we_o read_v in_o holy_a writ_n that_o moses_n love_n be_v so_o to_o god_n and_o his_o neighbour_n that_o to_o repurchase_v a_o peace_n and_o charity_n betwixt_o god_n and_o the_o people_n after_o they_o have_v offend_v he_o desire_v that_o his_o own_o name_n shall_v rather_o be_v blot_v out_o of_o the_o book_n of_o life_n than_o that_o the_o people_n name_n shall_v not_o be_v put_v in_o by_o obtain_v forgiveness_n and_o therefore_o he_o say_v to_o god_n either_o spare_v the_o people_n or_o blot_v i_o out_o of_o the_o book_n which_o thou_o have_v write_v how_o superlative_a a_o motive_n be_v this_o to_o move_v christian_n to_o a_o perfect_a charity_n towards_o their_o neighbour_n well_o may_v a_o christian_a be_v willing_a to_o lay_v down_o his_o temporal_a life_n for_o good_a example_n sake_n rather_o than_o offend_v god_n and_o scandalize_v other_o by_o desert_v his_o faith_n since_o other_o can_v be_v willing_a to_o hazard_v their_o eternal_a life_n to_o reduce_v their_o neighbour_n to_o god_n by_o charity_n the_o like_a example_n of_o love_n to_o god_n and_o his_o neighbour_n we_o have_v in_o st._n paul_n in_o
