man_n bethink_v themselves_o and_o then_o tell_v we_o whether_o the_o holy_a gospel_n be_v the_o power_n and_o arm_n of_o god_n to_o save_v every_o believer_n the_o glad_a tiding_n of_o salvation_n and_o word_n of_o life_n can_v make_v the_o world_n worse_o than_o it_o be_v for_o if_o that_o be_v the_o use_n of_o it_o our_o bless_a saviour_n be_v far_o oversee_v to_o leave_v his_o glory_n of_o heaven_n to_o take_v our_o flesh_n and_o in_o it_o to_o submit_v himself_o to_o the_o obedience_n of_o the_o whole_a law_n and_o to_o the_o suffering_n of_o the_o whole_a curse_n of_o it_o for_o our_o disobedience_n if_o by_o all_o this_o he_o leave_v the_o world_n or_o make_v the_o world_n worse_o than_o he_o find_v it_o how_o shall_v it_o be_v true_a that_o be_v write_v of_o he_o that_o the_o son_n of_o man_n come_v not_o to_o destroy_v but_o to_o seek_v and_o save_v that_o which_o be_v lose_v if_o the_o preach_n of_o he_o make_v the_o world_n worse_o than_o it_o be_v we_o will_v easy_o grant_v that_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o great_a light_n it_o daily_o discover_v that_o corruption_n and_o darkness_n which_o before_o lay_v hide_v as_o the_o sun_n rise_v manifest_v all_o those_o

a_o fancy_n or_o if_o sin_n itself_o in_o these_o day_n of_o the_o gospel_n by_o the_o multiplication_n of_o people_n be_v multiply_v shall_v we_o say_v the_o gospel_n be_v the_o cause_n or_o rather_o the_o malice_n of_o man_n who_o pervert_v it_o to_o their_o own_o destruction_n take_v occasion_n by_o it_o to_o turn_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n into_o wantonness_n let_v not_o we_o therefore_o look_v as_o the_o old_a idolater_n in_o jeremy's_n time_n who_o tell_v he_o plain_o that_o they_o will_v not_o hear_v the_o word_n that_o he_o speak_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o while_o they_o

these_o few_o for_o the_o present_a and_o conclude_v this_o point_n with_o this_o exhortation_n to_o these_o poor_a seduce_a people_n that_o consider_v the_o strait_a charge_n and_o commandment_n that_o lie_v upon_o we_o to_o preach_v in_o season_n and_o out_o of_o season_n they_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o pick_v out_o their_o duty_n therein_o employ_v which_o be_v to_o be_v diligent_a yea_o

incarnation_n to_o his_o ascension_n 2._o in_o powerful_a manner_n so_o to_o apply_v this_o doctrine_n to_o every_o hearer_n that_o every_o one_o may_v feel_v a_o change_n to_o follow_v both_o in_o his_o heart_n and_o life_n for_o to_o teach_v only_o the_o history_n of_o christ_n his_o doctrine_n his_o miracle_n his_o life_n his_o death_n be_v not_o the_o full_a teach_n of_o christ_n for_o

literature_n have_v not_o thus_o learned_a christ_n themselves_o nor_o can_v after_o such_o a_o lively_a manner_n teach_v he_o to_o other_o and_o pity_v it_o be_v to_o see_v that_o whereas_o so_o great_a a_o apostle_n as_o paul_n who_o want_v not_o art_n tongue_n and_o humane_a learning_n desire_v to_o know_v nothing_o but_o christ_n and_o he_o crucify_v among_o the_o corinth_n themselves_o it_o shall_v be_v the_o study_n of_o many_o man_n to_o show_v the_o knowledge_n of_o any_o thing_n rather_o than_o of_o christ_n and_o how_o they_o may_v paint_v out_o themselves_o rather_o then_o
