believe_v he_o and_o believe_v come_v into_o the_o rest_n of_o canaan_n but_o they_o come_v not_o all_o thither_o though_o that_o be_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n for_o some_o of_o they_o harden_v their_o heart_n which_o i_o will_v it_o be_v not_o so_o in_o christ_n we_o see_v it_o be_v so_o and_o that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v so_o the_o author_n of_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o heb._n admonish_v cite_v that_o of_o the_o psalm_n to_o day_n if_o you_o will_v hear_v his_o voice_n harden_v not_o your_o heart_n as_o your_o father_n viz._n harden_a their_o heart_n therefore_o to_o return_v to_o our_o purpose_n whereas_o those_o thing_n be_v by_o they_o so_o studious_o select_v to_o believe_v which_o god_n be_v to_o do_v and_o those_o refuse_v which_o belong_v to_o the_o duty_n of_o man_n i_o pray_v what_o a_o thing_n be_v this_o the_o beneficence_n and_o grace_n of_o god_n which_o bring_v salvation_n to_o all_o man_n have_v appear_v how_o glad_o be_v this_o receive_v but_o that_o which_o follow_v teach_v we_o to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o live_v sober_o righteous_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a world_n how_o few_o do_v embrace_v this_o most_o man_n believe_v this_o be_v so_o perform_v by_o christ_n that_o it_o be_v unnecessary_a for_o we_o to_o perform_v it_o again_o blessed_n be_v the_o man_n to_o who_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o impute_v sin_n this_o all_o man_n easy_o believe_v but_o that_o which_o be_v subjoin_v and_o in_o who_o spirit_n there_o be_v no_o guile_n this_o they_o believe_v be_v not_o possible_a to_o be_v attain_v again_o there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n this_o be_v pronounce_v with_o full_a mouth_n for_o it_o be_v a_o most_o sweet_a sentence_n but_o that_o who_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o spirit_n be_v bitter_a and_o believe_v by_o very_a few_o brief_o man_n easy_o believe_v we_o shall_v mow_v with_o joy_n but_o if_o you_o say_v we_o most_o sow_v in_o tear_n this_o part_n they_o cast_v upon_o christ_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o false_a prophet_n because_o they_o preach_v please_a thing_n and_o either_o feign_v please_v promise_n of_o god_n or_o apply_v they_o to_o such_o to_o who_o they_o do_v not_o belong_v easy_o find_v credit_n when_o the_o true_a prophet_n because_o they_o urge_v the_o threat_n of_o god_n and_o teach_v the_o truth_n severe_o have_v place_n among_o the_o few_o as_o esay_n exclaim_v lord_n who_o have_v believe_v our_o speech_n these_o thing_n be_v so_o it_o be_v manifest_a ludovic_n that_o man_n be_v hinder_v from_o believe_v the_o truth_n by_o the_o love_n of_o themselves_o but_o if_o self-love_n be_v quit_v they_o will_v believe_v nothing_o so_o easy_o as_o truth_n be_v natural_o incline_v to_o

very_a difficult_a matter_n and_o above_o humane_a strength_n but_o here_o we_o ought_v to_o remember_v what_o the_o lord_n say_v of_o sarah_n when_o she_o can_v not_o believe_v she_o shall_v be_v great_a with_o child_n be_v any_o thing_n to_o hard_a for_o the_o lord_n what_o be_v impossible_a to_o man_n be_v possible_a to_o god_n and_o under_o his_o conduct_n nothing_o be_v to_o be_v dispair_v of_o lud._n i_o beseech_v you_o therefore_o show_v i_o the_o way_n whereby_o i_o may_v attain_v unto_o it_o fed._n i_o will_v do_v so_o if_o god_n please_v lend_v i_o your_o ear_n if_o i_o have_v a_o servant_n most_o pleasant_a kind_a and_o officious_a and_o one_o who_o provide_v dainty_n for_o my_o pallate_n but_o mix_v with_o poison_n to_o take_v away_o my_o life_n and_o you_o know_v it_o ludovic_n who_o love_v i_o what_o will_v you_o do_v lud._n very_o i_o will_v with_o all_o speed_n and_o diligence_n advice_n you_o to_o take_v heed_n of_o taste_v those_o dainty_n or_o love_v that_o

the_o dish_n lud._n i_o will_v admonish_v you_o not_o to_o value_v so_o much_o the_o present_a pleasure_n as_o to_o loose_v your_o life_n for_o it_o fed._n what_o if_o your_o friend_n be_v in_o love_n with_o a_o flatter_a and_o paint_a harlot_n one_o infect_v with_o the_o french_a disease_n and_o you_o know_v it_o what_o will_v you_o do_v lud._n i_o will_v tell_v he_o of_o the_o disease_n and_o as_o much_o as_o i_o be_o able_a dehort_v he_o from_o her_o company_n fed._n what_o if_o he_o say_v i_o be_o delight_v with_o she_o lud._n i_o will_v answer_v fish_v also_o be_v delight_v with_o the_o bait_n but_o it_o be_v a_o folly_n to_o buy_v so_o little_a pleasure_n with_o so_o great_a pain_n or_o rather_o with_o death_n fed._n what_o if_o he_o say_v i_o can_v choose_v but_o desire_v the_o

lud._n then_o true_o i_o shall_v think_v he_o more_o foolish_a than_o the_o bruit_n and_o worthy_a of_o any_o evil._n for_o fish_n wolf_n fox_n kite_n though_o very_o hungry_a yet_o if_o they_o either_o see_v or_o suspect_v a_o hook_n a_o snare_n a_o trap_n they_o abstain_v from_o the_o prey_n fed._n you_o say_v well_o ludovic_n thus_o then_o every_o man_n flesh_n be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o harlot_n and_o that_o paint_a which_o allure_v and_o delight_v he_o with_o her_o enticement_n and_o flattery_n drive_v he_o to_o sin_n and_o detain_v he_o in_o sin_n and_o at_o last_o cast_v he_o headlong_o into_o the_o death_n of_o his_o soul_n now_o man_n ignorant_a of_o the_o poison_n embrace_v pleasure_n and_o give_v himself_o to_o they_o then_o there_o come_v upon_o he_o his_o friend_n
