we_o that_o we_o make_v not_o account_v of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n as_o of_o a_o blast_n of_o wind_n but_o let_v it_o be_v strong_o root_v in_o our_o heart_n for_o how_o do_v pilate_n fear_n god_n forsooth_o it_o be_v such_o a_o fear_n as_o make_v he_o only_o to_o be_v more_o inexcusable_a and_o here_o we_o may_v see_v why_o god_n awaken_v the_o conscience_n of_o those_o that_o be_v a_o sleep_n and_o will_v utter_o cast_v of_o the_o yoke_n which_o bring_v they_o to_o a_o more_o narrow_a consideration_n of_o themselves_o so_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v make_v spite_n of_o their_o téethe_n to_o acknowledge_v their_o misery_n and_o feel_v their_o sin_n although_o they_o will_v walter_n themselves_o asleep_a in_o they_o and_o therefore_o all_o the_o doubt_n which_o all_o the_o contemner_n of_o god_n and_o the_o wicked_a have_v be_v even_o so_o many_o adiournament_n or_o day_n over_o which_o god_n grant_v they_o to_o make_v they_o void_a of_o all_o excuse_n of_o ignorance_n but_o anon_o after_o they_o let_v slip_v the_o rhine_n and_o run_v at_o random_n without_o any_o stay_n as_o here_o we_o see_v pilate_n do_v at_o the_o beginning_n he_o be_v great_o afeard_a but_o soon_o after_o he_o return_v to_o his_o old_a bias_n again_o for_o thus_o he_o say_v to_o jesus_n know_v not_o thou_o that_o i_o have_v power_n to_o loose_v and_o condemn_v thou_o let_v we_o here_o in_o the_o first_o place_n note_n that_o if_o he_o have_v be_v a_o thief_n yet_o can_v not_o he_o once_o remove_v his_o finger_n without_o god_n have_v give_v he_o power_n how_o then_o dare_v pilate_n warrant_v himself_o such_o a_o outrageous_a licence_n to_o condemn_v and_o pardon_v as_o please_v he_o and_o sure_o it_o be_v much_o better_a to_o set_v at_o liberty_n all_o thief_n to_o rob_v and_o spoil_v in_o the_o wood_n then_o to_o set_v man_n in_o so_o honourable_a a_o place_n who_o take_v pleasure_n and_o delight_n in_o their_o authority_n and_o never_o have_v any_o care_n of_o conscience_n but_o bring_v the_o whole_a world_n unto_o confusion_n now_o we_o see_v here_o as_o i_o have_v say_v that_o pilate_n his_o fear_n never_o take_v deep_a root_n in_o he_o but_o be_v only_o a_o puff_a of_o wind_n wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o have_v azure_n and_o constant_a fear_n of_o god_n that_o we_o may_v walk_v in_o his_o obedience_n and_o valiant_o fight_v against_o whatsoever_o may_v put_v we_o by_o and_o always_o thus_o restrain_v ourselves_o as_o that_o we_o provoke_v not_o he_o to_o wrath_n who_o have_v all_o power_n over_o us._n and_o this_o be_v it_o which_o we_o be_v here_o to_o consider_v of_o let_v we_o also_o beside_o consider_v that_o the_o glory_n which_o pilate_n attribute_v to_o himself_o be_v notwithstanding_o turn_v to_o his_o great_a shame_n for_o his_o enemy_n can_v never_o speak_v worse_o of_o he_o then_o for_o this_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o will_v be_v take_v to_o be_v a_o man_n of_o no_o discretion_n to_o discern_v betwixt_o good_a and_o bad_a and_o yet_o he_o boast_v himself_o of_o it_o here_o therefore_o we_o see_v that_o the_o high_a the_o despiser_n of_o god_n think_v to_o advance_v themselves_o they_o must_v always_o feel_v that_o they_o be_v the_o more_o shameful_o to_o be_v throw_v down_o and_o god_n so_o give_v they_o over_o into_o a_o reprobate_a sense_n as_o that_o they_o brag_v of_o their_o iniquity_n that_o they_o may_v become_v detestable_a both_o in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n what_o be_v there_o then_o for_o we_o to_o do_v forsooth_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o glory_n in_o that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v lawful_a for_o they_o which_o glory_n in_o their_o mightiness_n and_o in_o their_o authority_n without_o doubt_n do_v provoke_v the_o lord_n to_o anger_n because_o they_o have_v many_o time_n get_v their_o riches_n and_o credit_n by_o unlawful_a mean_n as_o by_o riot_v cruelty_n and_o all_o kind_n of_o extortion_n wherefore_o when_o they_o glory_v herein_o it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v to_o set_v themselves_o against_o the_o lord_n for_o he_o that_o have_v get_v every_o way_n by_o spoil_n will_v say_v i_o be_o wealthy_a and_o see_v he_o will_v say_v i_o have_v get_v whenas_o he_o have_v suck_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o poor_a out_o of_o they_o but_o how_o sure_o by_o deceit_n and_o wicked_a practice_n in_o rob_v the_o one_o and_o glut_v the_o other_o another_o man_n through_o abition_n and_o unlawful_a mean_n be_v advance_v to_o some_o honour_n and_o hereupon_o forsooth_o this_o man_n will_v be_v great_o fear_v and_o this_o kind_n of_o deal_n be_v manifest_o to_o stand_v against_o god_n and_o therefore_o as_o i_o have_v say_v let_v we_o learn_v to_o glory_n in_o that_o which_o god_n allow_v and_o like_v of_o true_a it_o be_v that_o although_o there_o be_v valour_n in_o we_o yet_o be_v it_o not_o lawful_a to_o usurp_v the_o commendation_n which_o god_n reserve_v to_o himself_o and_o for_o the_o which_o we_o ought_v to_o honour_v he_o because_o all_o that_o we_o have_v come_v of_o his_o free_a gift_n wherefore_o we_o must_v not_o without_o doubt_n glory_n in_o ourselves_o as_o if_o that_o which_o god_n give_v we_o appertein_v unto_o we_o but_o i_o say_v our_o glory_n shall_v be_v only_o in_o this_o that_o it_o have_v please_v god_n to_o adopt_v we_o for_o his_o child_n and_o have_v give_v we_o his_o grace_n to_o walk_v in_o his_o fear_n and_o power_n also_o to_o abstain_v from_o evil_a and_o héerin_o aught_o to_o be_v all_o our_o glory_n and_o beside_o if_o we_o be_v of_o no_o reputation_n in_o the_o world_n let_v we_o beseech_v he_o to_o grant_v we_o patience_n and_o rather_o desire_v to_o live_v in_o this_o estate_n then_o to_o be_v exalt_v and_o yet_o to_o rejoice_v and_o be_v glad_a but_o not_o as_o the_o worldling_n do_v who_o make_v themselves_o such_o sport_n as_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o be_v able_a to_o hold_v they_o in_o and_o therefore_o the_o sum_n and_o effect_n wherein_o we_o must_v glory_v be_v this_o to_o will_n and_o desire_n no_o more_o than_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o do_v and_o set_v ourselves_o against_o whatsoever_o he_o mislike_v of_o although_o the_o world_n and_o all_o such_o as_o commit_v tyranny_n and_o exceed_v in_o do_v wicked_o rejoice_v in_o it_o wherefore_o let_v we_o glad_o and_o willing_o leave_v all_o these_o glory_n desire_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o have_v god_n to_o acknowledge_v and_o allow_v we_o for_o his_o child_n and_o this_o be_v in_o effect_n the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v here_o to_o consider_v of_o now_o for_o a_o full_a conclusion_n it_o be_v say_v that_o when_o pilate_n see_v he_o prevail_v nothing_o and_o that_o the_o people_n make_v a_o great_a stir_n he_o wash_v his_o hand_n and_o say_v i_o be_o innocent_a of_o the_o blood_n of_o this_o man_n we_o have_v already_o say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n must_v be_v find_v innocent_a even_o by_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o judge_n own_o mouth_n for_o where_o it_o be_v lay_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v condemn_v and_o suffer_v under_o pontius_n pilate_n it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a for_o we_o that_o we_o have_v understand_v the_o history_n but_o we_o must_v eftsoon_o acknowledge_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o only_o innocent_a but_o be_v also_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o holiness_n and_o perfection_n why_o then_o be_v he_o condemn_v 3.13_o john_n 1.29_o 1._o pet._n 1.19_o galat._n 3.13_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o here_o be_v two_o diverse_a and_o sundry_a thing_n for_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o be_v the_o unspotted_a lamb_n of_o god_n and_o because_o he_o be_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n it_o be_v meet_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v condemn_v as_o a_o sacrifice_n this_o word_n lamb_n import_v that_o he_o must_v be_v offer_v up_o and_o what_o be_v it_o that_o the_o law_n call_v sacrifice_n forsooth_o it_o be_v sin_n and_o curse_n and_o we_o see_v why_o it_o be_v say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n be_v accurse_v for_o we_o to_o wit_n he_o receive_v unto_o himself_o the_o curse_n which_o be_v due_a for_o our_o sin_n thus_o we_o see_v in_o what_o quality_n and_o state_n he_o be_v condemn_v because_o god_n have_v establish_v that_o he_o

before_o say_v after_o the_o example_n of_o david_n my_o god_n my_o god_n why_o have_v thou_o forsake_v i_o even_o so_o likewise_o take_v he_o at_o this_o present_a the_o prayer_n which_o david_n

the_o chief_a regard_n that_o god_n have_v on_o we_o be_v this_o that_o when_o he_o have_v take_v we_o out_o of_o this_o world_n he_o hide_v we_o under_o his_o wing_n that_o we_o may_v enjoy_v his_o

whenas_o he_o overcome_v all_o the_o combat_n which_o he_o sustain_v for_o we_o and_o triumph_v in_o our_o behalf_n both_o for_o our_o profit_n and_o for_o our_o salvation_n and_o a_o none_o after_o he_o declare_v by_o the_o same_o mean_n that_o god_n be_v his_o saviour_n &_o keep_v his_o soul_n as_o a_o sufficient_a pledge_n for_o this_o much_o his_o request_n import_v when_o he_o say_v my_o god_n thou_o shall_v preserve_v my_o soul_n even_o when_o i_o be_o dead_a when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n speak_v after_o this_o sort_n it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o assure_v we_o all_o that_o we_o can_v do_v amiss_o in_o submit_v ourselves_o unto_o our_o god_n see_v that_o he_o for_o the_o defend_n of_o we_o vouchsafe_v to_o take_v the_o charge_n of_o we_o and_o that_o we_o shall_v never_o perish_v under_o his_o hand_n now_o we_o have_v eftsoon_o to_o consider_v that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n say_v into_o thy_o hand_n o_o lord_n i_o commend_v my_o spirit_n that_o he_o obtain_v this_o

saint_n stéeven_v show_v the_o benefit_n of_o the_o request_n which_o jesus_n christ_n make_v to_o wit_n that_o we_o may_v now_o come_v unto_o he_o and_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v so_o declare_v that_o since_o god_n his_o father_n have_v make_v he_o a_o shephearde_n for_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o doubt_v but_o to_o be_v at_o peace_n come_v life_n come_v death_n know_v that_o all_o shall_v be_v for_o our_o profit_n and_o turn_v to_o our_o benefit_n and_o as_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o when_o he_o have_v jesus_n christ_n he_o have_v riches_n enough_o 1.21_o phil._n 1.21_o and_o care_v neither_o for_o life_n nor_o death_n for_o all_o shall_v be_v gain_n unto_o he_o wherefore_o let_v we_o now_o learn_v that_o when_o death_n shall_v assail_v we_o that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v break_v the_o sting_n which_o may_v have_v sting_v we_o deadly_a to_o the_o heart_n and_o that_o death_n shall_v no_o long_o hurt_v we_o and_o that_o when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n yield_v up_o his_o spirit_n unto_o god_n his_o father_n it_o be_v not_o only_o to_o have_v it_o conserve_v in_o his_o own_o person_n but_o that_o he_o may_v have_v this_o privilege_n that_o we_o may_v be_v preserve_v

be_v that_o triumph_n whereof_o we_o have_v speak_v which_o already_o profit_v us._n for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n show_v how_o precious_a his_o death_n be_v when_o as_o he_o go_v so_o free_o unto_o

let_v we_o account_v it_o to_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o all_o our_o glory_n and_o let_v we_o also_o understande_v that_o although_o we_o be_v put_v to_o shame_v under_o his_o conduct_n yet_o that_o we_o have_v whereof_o to_o rejoice_v because_o our_o estate_n shall_v be_v always_o bless_v forsomuch_o as_o that_o whatsoever_o misery_n affliction_n and_o rebuke_n we_o shall_v abide_v be_v

one_o of_o the_o principall_a article_n of_o our_o faith_n be_v this_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n must_v appear_v from_o heaven_n now_o it_o can_v be_v that_o his_o come_n shall_v be_v unprofitable_a and_o therefore_o it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o we_o must_v look_v and_o wait_v for_o our_o redemption_n and_o salvation_n from_o thence_o neither_o must_v we_o stand_v any_o whit_n in_o doubt_n thereof_o because_o if_o we_o shall_v so_o do_v it_o be_v even_o enough_o to_o make_v whatsoever_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v do_v and_o suffer_v of_o none_o effect_n for_o

forsooth_o he_o do_v all_o this_o to_o this_o end_n and_o purpose_n that_o he_o will_v gather_v we_o together_o into_o his_o kingdom_n whenas_o he_o shall_v appear_v and_o therefore_o this_o his_o

paul_n now_o use_v a_o strange_a kind_n of_o argument_n the_o better_a to_o confirm_v we_o in_o this_o hope_n whereunto_o he_o have_v exhort_v we_o in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o thessalonian_o which_o be_v that_o god_n will_v not_o be_v so_o light_o set_v by_o by_o the_o contemner_n of_o his_o gospel_n who_o make_v no_o reckon_n of_o his_o heavenly_a majesty_n neither_o will_v he_o suffer_v his_o creature_n to_o lift_v themselves_o up_o against_o he_o &_o to_o withstand_v he_o thus_o we_o see_v by_o how_o much_o more_o we_o shall_v be_v confirm_v in_o the_o hope_n of_o our_o salvation_n see_v that_o god_n have_v a_o interest_n therein_o &_o be_v his_o own_o cause_n and_o this_o be_v a_o point_n which_o we_o be_v diligent_o to_o observe_v for_o although_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v god_n exceed_o assure_v we_o that_o he_o have_v great_a care_n of_o our_o salvation_n yet_o our_o nature_n be_v so_o wonderful_a mistrustful_a as_o that_o we_o continual_o stand_v in_o doubt_n but_o when_o it_o be_v set_v down_o unto_o we_o the_o god_n will_v defend_v his_o own_o right_n and_o not_o suffer_v we_o to_o tread_v his_o majesty_n under_o foot_n this_o be_v a_o doctrine_n which_o shall_v make_v we_o full_o assure_v and_o resolute_a and_o beside_o god_n show_v we_o such_o favour_n in_o join_v his_o glory_n with_o our_o salvation_n as_o that_o there_o be_v a_o inseparable_a bond_n between_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o for_o do_v not_o we_o see_v a_o infallible_a assurance_n that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n will_v come_v to_o give_v we_o rest_v and_o quietness_n because_o it_o can_v otherwise_o be_v but_o that_o god_n will_v mainteyn_fw-mi his_o majesty_n against_o the_o pride_n and_o enmity_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o diligent_o mark_v that_o jesus_n christ_n can_v maintain_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n but_z that_o he_o must_v eftsoon_o declare_v himself_o to_o be_v our_o redeemer_n and_o these_o thing_n as_o i_o have_v say_v can_v be_v sunder_v wherefore_o we_o herein_o see_v the_o infinite_a love_n of_o our_o god_n towards_o his_o faithful_a one_o whenas_o he_o conjoin_v himself_o in_o â—uch_o sort_n with_o they_o for_o as_o he_o can_v possible_o forget_v his_o own_o glory_n no_o more_o can_v he_o also_o forget_v our_o salvation_n and_o as_o he_o will_v show_v his_o power_n to_o be_v revenge_v of_o all_o such_o as_o resist_v he_o even_o so_o will_v he_o likewise_o punish_v all_o those_o that_o have_v unjust_o afflict_v his_o choose_a people_n thus_o we_o see_v what_o s._n paul_n his_o meaning_n be_v when_o as_o he_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n will_v come_v to_o render_v vengeance_n to_o all_o those_o which_o have_v not_o know_v god_n and_o obey_v his_o gospel_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v behold_v your_o enemy_n which_o persecute_v you_o now_o you_o be_v in_o doubt_n whether_o god_n regard_v your_o affliction_n and_o whether_o he_o have_v compassion_n of_o you_o or_o not_o for_o the_o remedy_n of_o they_o what_o think_v you_o that_o god_n make_v no_o reckon_n to_o maintain_v and_o defend_v his_o glory_n now_o as_o the_o adversary_n afflict_v you_o for_o cleave_v unto_o the_o gospel_n even_o so_o likewise_o will_v god_n in_o the_o defence_n of_o his_o own_o cause_n be_v your_o protector_n and_o defendor_n and_o by_o the_o way_n s._n paul_n also_o give_v we_o here_o in_o this_o place_n many_o profitable_a advertisemente_n for_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o vengeance_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o our_o enemy_n he_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n will_v come_v with_o the_o angel_n of_o his_o power_n and_o in_o flame_a fire_n but_o to_o what_o end_n forsooth_o to_o confirm_v his_o say_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o enemy_n of_o his_o truth_n say_v he_o may_v sustain_v their_o punishment_n both_o before_o god_n and_o his_o majesty_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v sure_o you_o can_v no_o more_o comprehend_v the_o torment_n which_o the_o faithless_a shall_v suffer_v then_o we_o do_v

at_o it_o even_o so_o fare_v it_o with_o the_o horrible_a vengeance_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o all_o the_o faithless_a see_v god_n must_v show_v forth_o his_o power_n upon_o they_o for_o since_o his_o majesty_n as_o i_o have_v say_v be_v inestimable_a therefore_o must_v their_o torment_n be_v also_o incomprehensible_a for_o our_o cause_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o point_n moreover_o when_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o infidel_n and_o of_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n he_o say_v that_o they_o know_v he_o not_o nor_o yet_o obey_v his_o gospel_n or_o that_o they_o be_v

he_o now_o if_o we_o thorough_o consider_v of_o this_o without_o doubt_n we_o will_v keep_v so_o good_a a_o hand_n of_o ourselves_o as_o that_o all_o the_o fleshly_a lust_n and_o temptation_n of_o the_o world_n shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o prevail_v against_o us._n saint_n paul_n also_o mean_v to_o make_v a_o comparison_n betwixt_o the_o first_o come_v of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o second_o why_o then_o do_v the_o wicked_a and_o ungodly_a contemner_n of_o the_o gospel_n so_o bold_o lift_v up_o themselves_o as_o that_o they_o become_v dissolute_a and_o stark_o stare_v mad_a sure_o it_o be_v because_o they_o hear_v that_o while_n jesus_n christ_n be_v here_o on_o earth_n he_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o state_n of_o a_o servant_n 2.7_o phil._n 2.7_o yea_o and_o abase_v himself_o and_o saint_n paul_n say_v even_o unto_o this_o most_o shameful_a and_o slanderous_a death_n and_o because_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n understand_v such_o a_o infirmity_n to_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n they_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o speak_v thus_o wicked_o and_o furious_o of_o he_o as_o we_o see_v it_o be_v even_o so_o howbeit_o they_o see_v not_o that_o as_o he_o suffer_v as_o he_o be_v man_n that_o he_o likewise_o rise_v again_o through_o the_o power_n of_o his_o spirit_n for_o he_o then_o in_o such_o sort_n show_v forth_o his_o glory_n as_o that_o both_o great_a and_o

of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n let_v they_o give_v ear_n to_o that_o which_o be_v here_o speak_v to_o wit_n that_o he_o will_v come_v in_o glory_n for_o in_o his_o first_o come_n he_o appear_v contemptible_a because_o he_o will_v show_v himself_o obedient_a in_o our_o behalf_n for_o that_o he_o be_v to_o make_v satisfaction_n for_o our_o sin_n but_o at_o his_o second_o come_n he_o will_v

he_o not_o questionless_a come_v in_o such_o humble_a sort_n but_o will_v come_v with_o his_o angel_n in_o glory_n and_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n which_o saint_n paul_n will_v have_v we_o note_v to_o the_o end_n the_o wicked_a and_o faithless_a may_v not_o take_v occasion_n to_o contemn_v this_o his_o last_o come_n under_o colour_n the_o jesus_n christ_n once_o appear_v as_o he_o be_v man_n like_v unto_o we_o and_o be_v make_v like_o unto_o a_o worm_n of_o the_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n and_o as_o isaiah_n say_v he_o be_v disfigure_v from_o top_n to_o toe_n all_o to_o wound_v and_o that_o for_o our_o redemption_n for_o since_o he_o accomplish_v that_o which_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n require_v there_o remain_v nothing_o but_o that_o he_o shall_v show_v himself_o in_o this_o glory_n which_o be_v appoint_v for_o he_o for_o we_o know_v as_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o he_o have_v give_v he_o a_o name_n above_o all_o name_n 2.9_o phil._n 2.9_o that_o all_o the_o creature_n in_o heaven_n earth_n and_o hell_n shall_v bow_v unto_o he_o that_o every_o thing_n shall_v tremble_v at_o his_o excellent_a majesty_n which_o also_o the_o despiser_n of_o his_o gospel_n shall_v well_o know_v to_o their_o pain_n though_o late_o first_o thus_o we_o see_v what_o the_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n his_o pretence_n be_v when_o he_o say_v that_o his_o come_n shall_v be_v fearful_a let_v we_o also_o eftsoon_o mark_v that_o which_o follow_v that_o he_o shall_v come_v to_o appear_v marvellous_a and_o to_o be_v glorify_v in_o his_o saint_n now_o it_o be_v not_o for_o nothing_o that_o saint_n paul_n set_v down_o this_o say_n for_o what_o be_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o abide_v the_o presence_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n whenas_o he_o shall_v come_v

that_o if_o we_o be_v of_o the_o faithful_a sort_n that_o we_o must_v not_o be_v afraid_a at_o the_o appear_v of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n neither_o yet_o wax_v sorrowful_a and_o melancholic_a at_o the_o brightness_n of_o his_o majesty_n and_o why_o so_o because_o say_v he_o he_o will_v be_v glorify_v and_o make_v wonderful_a in_o his_o saint_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v that_o the_o mention_n which_o he_o before_o make_v of_o the_o flamb_v fire_n and_o of_o the_o horror_n and_o fear_n be_v not_o to_o discourage_v the_o faithful_a one_o as_o though_o they_o desire_v not_o

and_o confound_v all_o those_o who_o have_v harden_v themselves_o against_o he_o and_o his_o word_n let_v we_o now_o then_o keep_v in_o mind_n that_o this_o terrible_a description_n which_o here_o

in_o sum_n be_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v of_o the_o one_o be_v that_o they_o count_v the_o hour_n otherwise_o then_o we_o do_v at_o this_o day_n for_o they_o reckon_v the_o day_n to_o

have_v forsake_v he_o for_o it_o be_v too_o too_o blockish_a and_o foolish_a a_o thing_n to_o say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o sore_o torment_v and_o vex_v in_o heart_n but_o that_o he_o simple_o say_v they_o think_v that_o i_o be_o forsake_v now_o this_o declare_v that_o they_o which_o seek_v after_o such_o gloss_n be_v not_o only_o ignorant_a but_o also_o very_a

which_o be_v worse_o they_o mock_v themselves_o like_o villain_n as_o they_o be_v therefore_o we_o must_v absolute_o conclude_v that_o when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n be_v bring_v to_o this_o extremity_n

that_o if_o we_o have_v commit_v many_o offence_n rebellion_n and_o iniquity_n against_o god_n that_o all_o shall_v be_v bury_v because_o our_o lord_n jesus_n have_v by_o his_o obedience_n justify_v we_o &_o make_v we_o acceptable_a with_o god_n his_o father_n now_o wherein_o consist_v this_o obedience_n but_o that_o christ_n jesus_n although_o he_o suffer_v a_o cruel_a &_o terrible_a death_n yet_o be_v content_v to_o yield_v himself_o unto_o it_o for_o if_o he_o have_v feel_v no_o hardness_n nor_o strive_v in_o it_o his_o obedience_n have_v be_v nothing_o but_o inasmuch_o as_o our_o

that_o the_o fear_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v hear_v but_o however_o it_o be_v it_o be_v meet_v that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v and_o abide_v so_o hard_a &_o weighty_a a_o cause_n yea_o

his_o obedience_n may_v be_v know_v we_o see_v then_o that_o the_o apostle_n namely_o specifi_v that_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v be_v wonderful_o afeard_a for_o

that_o we_o be_v redeem_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n because_o he_o offer_v up_o his_o body_n for_o a_o sacrifice_n &_o we_o also_o see_v why_o it_o be_v say_v that_o his_o flesh_n be_v spiritual_a meat_n &_o drink_v 6.55_o john_n 6.55_o but_o it_o be_v so_o speak_v by_o reason_n of_o our_o grossness_n and_o because_o we_o be_v canal_o mind_v the_o holy_a ghost_n send_v we_o back_o unto_o that_o that_o be_v visible_o to_o be_v perceive_v in_o the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o by_o it_o we_o may_v have_v a_o assure_a pawn_n of_o our_o salvation_n and_o yet_o this_o take_v not_o away_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v show_v we_o out_o of_o other_o place_n neither_o do_v it_o derogate_v from_o this_o point_n that_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n

this_o place_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v not_o only_o suffer_v in_o body_n so_o cruel_a &_o tormentrous_a a_o death_n as_o already_o have_v be_v see_v but_o be_v also_o touch_v to_o the_o quick_a whenas_o he_o be_v to_o abide_v such_o horrible_a assault_n as_o if_o god_n have_v forsake_v he_o for_o to_o say_v the_o truth_n as_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o our_o cause_n as_o have_v be_v say_v it_o must_v also_o needs_o be_v that_o he_o must_v feel_v the_o condemnation_n which_o be_v due_a for_o wretched_a sinner_n for_o by_o our_o sin_n we_o be_v as_o people_n estrange_v

of_o sinner_n be_v and_o this_o be_v out_o of_o all_o doubt_n that_o god_n the_o father_n never_o forsake_v jesus_n christ_n yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v

that_o that_o may_v be_v say_v be_v it_o possible_a that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v so_o fearful_o trouble_v see_v he_o be_v perfection_n itself_o for_o this_o seem_v to_o derogate_v from_o the_o

the_o prophet_n namely_o say_v that_o he_o will_v bedew_v or_o sprinkle_v in_o very_a deed_n this_o say_n by_o a_o similitude_n signify_v also_o to_o speak_v fair_a but_o when_o we_o shall_v

thought_n and_o imagination_n for_o when_o we_o be_v tell_v of_o miracle_n our_o sense_n must_v needs_o fail_v we_o and_o when_o we_o be_v tell_v of_o mystery_n that_o be_v to_o say_v secret_n we_o

through_o misbelief_n but_o rather_o give_v he_o free_a access_n through_o faith_n and_o this_o be_v in_o sum_n the_o thing_n which_o we_o be_v to_o learn_v out_o of_o this_o doctrine_n of_o the_o prophet_n moreover_o he_o say_v that_o all_o the_o world_n shall_v be_v bedeaw_v with_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o wit_n by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n for_o they_o say_v he_o who_o never_o hear_v any_o speech_n of_o he_o shall_v hear_v of_o he_o and_o they_o which_o never_o understand_v shall_v understand_v of_o he_o here_o the_o prophet_n amplifi_v his_o purpose_n show_v that_o

filthiness_n and_o corruption_n we_o be_v quite_o cut_v off_o from_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o look_v to_o be_v any_o whit_n the_o better_a for_o his_o come_n but_o call_v to_o mind_v the_o say_n of_o the_o prophet_n in_o these_o word_n desire_v not_o the_o come_n of_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n 5._o amos._n 5._o for_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o day_n of_o terror_n and_o fear_n and_o not_o of_o health_n and_o joy_n for_o by_o reason_n there_o be_v in_o those_o day_n a_o great_a number_n of_o hypocrite_n who_o cloak_v themselves_o with_o the_o name_n of_o god_n the_o prophet_n tell_v they_o that_o it_o will_v cost_v they_o dear_a after_o the_o same_o very_a manner_n shall_v we_o see_v the_o most_o wicked_a at_o this_o day_n with_o open_a mouth_n and_o wide_a throat_n say_v what_o i_o beseech_v you_o good_a sir_n think_v you_o that_o we_o fear_v not_o god_n and_o that_o we_o will_v not_o be_v as_o good_a christian_n as_o the_o rest_n thus_o no_o doubt_n of_o it_o will_v they_o say_v and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n a_o man_n shall_v see_v nothing_o in_o they_o but_o wantonness_n and_o all_o ungodliness_n and_o as_o religious_a as_o dog_n and_o swine_n and_o examine_v their_o life_n and_o we_o shall_v find_v they_o altogether_o disloyal_a and_o faithless_a like_o fox_n full_a of_o treason_n perjury_n cruelty_n and_o bitterness_n unto_o their_o neighbour_n give_v to_o all_o kind_n of_o harm_n and_o outrage_n and_o full_a of_o all_o corruption_n so_o that_o whosoever_o give_v they_o most_o they_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o be_v no_o loser_n they_o will_v keep_v open_a shop_n to_o take_v of_o all_o hand_n insomuch_o that_o they_o will_v not_o only_o sell_v their_o faith_n and_o credit_n but_o their_o honour_n and_o honesty_n also_o even_o in_o open_a sight_n and_o will_v keep_v open_a fair_a and_o market_n to_o utter_v all_o wickedness_n to_o be_v short_a they_o will_v show_v themselves_o extreme_a impudent_a contemptuous_a person_n and_o yet_o forsooth_o they_o will_v not_o stick_v to_o brag_v that_o they_o be_v the_o frowarde_a man_n in_o all_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o think_v that_o god_n will_v help_v they_o as_o if_o he_o be_v great_o behold_v unto_o they_o and_o therefore_o as_o we_o see_v it_o to_o be_v thus_o at_o this_o day_n even_o so_o the_o prophet_n speak_v to_o those_o that_o be_v in_o his_o day_n say_v what_o what_o kind_n of_o brag_n be_v these_o that_o you_o make_v of_o the_o lord_n come_v why_o think_v you_o to_o receive_v any_o benefit_n by_o his_o come_n no_o no_o but_o be_v assure_v that_o it_o will_v be_v a_o terrible_a and_o a_o most_o fearful_a day_n to_o you_o and_o so_o according_a to_o my_o first_o say_n we_o have_v to_o note_v out_o of_o this_o place_n of_o saint_n paul_n that_o if_o we_o will_v have_v the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n available_a to_o we_o and_o do_v we_o good_a and_o to_o be_v the_o redeemer_n of_o our_o salvation_n we_o must_v learn_v to_o consecrate_v ourselves_o to_o holiness_n of_o life_n and_o to_o separate_v ourselves_o from_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o flesh_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o first_o point_n but_o to_o the_o attain_n hereof_o let_v we_o note_v that_o we_o must_v begin_v with_o faith_n according_a to_o that_o which_o we_o have_v late_o say_v for_o to_o say_v true_o faith_n 6._o act_n 15._o 6._o be_v the_o spring_n head_n of_o all_o holiness_n as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o act_n where_o saint_n peter_n say_v that_o god_n cleanse_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n by_o faith_n and_o this_o be_v speak_v to_o this_o end_n and_o purpose_n to_o show_v that_o whatsoever_o glorious_a show_n we_o make_v that_o we_o shall_v always_o be_v corrupt_a and_o stink_a before_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n until_o such_o time_n as_o god_n cleanse_v we_o by_o the_o mean_a of_o faith_n as_o for_o the_o three_o point_n we_o be_v admonish_v that_o if_o we_o have_v a_o lively_a faith_n it_o can_v be_v choose_v but_o that_o we_o must_v eftsoon_o be_v sanctify_v to_o wit_n that_o we_o can_v but_o be_v reform_v to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o be_v consecrate_v to_o honour_v he_o and_o how_o be_v that_o forsooth_o because_o that_o we_o embrace_v jesus_n christ_n by_o faith_n he_o will_v dwell_v in_o we_o according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o all_o the_o whole_a scripture_n and_o namely_o saint_n paul_n use_v these_o word_n to_o the_o ephesian_n jesus_n christ_n say_v he_o dwell_v in_o your_o heart_n by_o faith_n 3.17_o ephe._n 3.17_o i_o beseech_v you_o tell_v i_o do_v not_o these_o thing_n hang_v ill_a favored_o together_o that_o jesus_n christ_n dwell_v in_o we_o and_o we_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n give_v ourselves_o to_o all_o villainy_n and_o filthiness_n do_v we_o think_v that_o he_o will_v dwell_v in_o a_o swine_n sty_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v consecrate_v ourselves_o unto_o he_o moreover_o he_o can_v be_v with_o we_o but_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o be_v not_o this_o the_o spirit_n of_o holiness_n righteousness_n and_o cleanness_n will_v not_o this_o be_v a_o strange_a medley_n when_o as_o we_o will_v brag_v to_o have_v faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o yet_o live_v wanton_o and_o wicked_o and_o be_v stain_v with_o all_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o world_n this_o be_v as_o a_o man_n will_v say_v i_o hold_v the_o sun_n and_o it_o shine_v not_o and_o as_o if_o a_o man_n will_v turn_v upside_o down_o the_o whole_a order_n of_o nature_n for_o it_o be_v more_o like_a that_o the_o sun_n shall_v be_v without_o light_n then_o that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v without_o righteousness_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o make_v this_o observation_n that_o we_o take_v not_o this_o cloak_n of_o hypocrisy_n upon_o we_o and_o say_v that_o we_o have_v faith_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o we_o believe_v in_o good_a sadness_n without_o our_o life_n and_o conversation_n be_v answerable_a and_o show_v that_o we_o have_v receive_v jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o through_o the_o grace_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n he_o consecrate_v &_o sanctifi_v we_o to_o the_o obedience_n of_o god_n his_o father_n we_o see_v then_o that_o we_o must_v not_o come_v with_o falâ—â—_n ensign_n to_o usurp_v this_o name_n of_o faith_n be_v a_o most_o holy_a thing_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n we_o profane_v it_o not_o but_o if_o we_o believe_v in_o the_o son_n of_o god_n let_v we_o effectual_o show_v that_o we_o have_v do_v so_o and_o then_o no_o doubt_n he_o will_v make_v we_o feel_v his_o power_n and_o give_v we_o grace_n patient_o to_o tarry_v his_o come_n and_o although_o we_o must_v in_o this_o world_n suffer_v many_o injury_n for_o his_o name_n sake_n yet_o shall_v we_o in_o the_o end_n be_v clothe_v with_o his_o glory_n and_o righteousness_n as_o he_o have_v promise_v which_o he_o will_v make_v we_o feel_v so_o we_o receive_v it_o without_o doubt_v and_o now_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o majesty_n of_o our_o good_a god_n and_o acknowledge_v our_o offence_n beseech_v he_o that_o after_o he_o have_v make_v we_o to_o feel_v they_o that_o he_o will_v deliver_v we_o from_o they_o and_o because_o he_o can_v do_v it_o but_o that_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o ill_a remnant_n leave_v behind_o that_o it_o will_v please_v he_o to_o support_v we_o until_o such_o time_n
