declare_v unto_o you_o the_o whole_a counsel_n of_o god_n the_o principal_a point_n of_o our_o doctrine_n be_v what_o we_o must_v believe_v what_o we_o must_v do_v and_o what_o we_o must_v pray_v for_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n the_o doctrine_n of_o good_a life_n and_o the_o doctrine_n of_o prayer_n john_n teach_v all_o these_o for_o 1_o he_o preach_v christ_n to_o they_o the_o ground_n

a_o holy_a emulation_n of_o god_n grace_n in_o yourselves_o to_o contend_v with_o yourselves_o to_o increase_v your_o knowledge_n &_o add_v strength_n and_o growth_n to_o your_o judgement_n that_o

say_v to_o that_o archippus_n as_o the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n do_v to_o christ_n teach_v we_o as_o john_n teach_v his_o disciple_n that_o be_v you_o may_v stir_v up_o your_o minister_n to_o

as_o he_o have_v to_o the_o tithe_n of_o your_o labour_n christ_n disciple_n put_v he_o to_o it_o to_o teach_v they_o and_o let_v all_o people_n do_v the_o like_a to_o their_o minister_n luc._n 11.2_o and_o he_o say_v unto_o they_o when_o you_o pray_v say_v our_o father_n etc._n etc._n here_o begin_v christ_n answer_n to_o the_o disciple_n motion_n in_o which_o you_o may_v observe_v 1_o that_o he_o

petitioner_n and_o herein_o he_o comfort_v such_o as_o can_v pray_v declare_v himself_o ready_a to_o teach_v they_o if_o they_o demand_v it_o of_o he_o and_o he_o comfort_v they_o that_o pray_v to_o he_o for_o any_o thing_n necessary_a that_o he_o hear_v prayer_n and_o grant_v request_n so_o that_o they_o which_o pretend_v they_o can_v pray_v have_v no_o excuse_n for_o they_o know_v where_o they_o may_v be_v teach_v even_o in_o this_o it_o be_v but_o ask_v and_o it_o shall_v be_v give_v to_o you_o if_o john_n teach_v his_o disciple_n to_o pray_v how_o much_o more_o and_o soon_o will_n christ_n teach_v those_o that_o come_v to_o he_o if_o the_o lamp_n shine_v so_o clear_a to_o his_o scholar_n how_o much_o bright_a will_n the_o shine_v be_v of_o this_o sun_n of_o righteousness_n but_o as_o they_o make_v this_o motion_n for_o themselves_o and_o for_o we_o so_o christ_n teach_v they_o in_o his_o answer_n for_o themselves_o and_o for_o we_o and_o for_o the_o whole_a church_n to_o the_o world_n end_n christ_n be_v now_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o his_o father_n but_o this_o record_n of_o his_o answer_n to_o direct_v we_o in_o prayer_n live_v in_o this_o book_n of_o the_o eternal_a gospel_n here_o we_o may_v have_v it_o at_o a_o short_a warning_n and_o though_o johns_n prayer_n be_v lose_v and_o no_o monument_n leave_v of_o it_o yet_o this_o holy_a

learn_v to_o pray_v when_o you_o pray_v say_v our_o father_n etc._n etc._n our_o comfortable_a lesson_n from_o hence_o be_v that_o it_o be_v not_o labour_v lose_v to_o come_v to_o christ_n with_o our_o petition_n to_o be_v instruct_v as_o he_o be_v the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o father_n to_o teach_v we_o so_o he_o be_v the_o goodness_n and_o love_n of_o his_o father_n and_o our_o father_n to_o

when_o you_o pray_v wherein_o two_o mistake_n may_v wrong_v the_o good_a meaning_n of_o our_o saviour_n 1_o if_o we_o think_v this_o so_o precise_a a_o direction_n for_o prayer_n as_o that_o we_o may_v never_o use_v any_o other_o word_n but_o these_o in_o prayer_n but_o that_o all_o our_o prayer_n must_v be_v totidem_fw-la verbis_fw-la for_o that_o that_o be_v not_o our_o saviour_n meaning_n be_v plain_a in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o prayer_n deliver_v by_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o sermon_n which_o he_o preach_v on_o the_o mount_n where_o he_o say_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d that_o be_v pray_v on_o this_o manner_n or_o to_o this_o purpose_n according_a to_o these_o instruction_n in_o this_o form_n contain_v for_o i_o must_v inform_v you_o that_o the_o precise_a frame_n of_o the_o prayer_n for_o the_o word_n thereof_o be_v not_o punctual_o the_o same_o in_o s._n matthew_n and_o s._n luke_n which_o show_v that_o there_o be_v no_o necssitation_n of_o the_o church_n oblige_v it_o to_o the_o word_n thereof_o 2_o another_o mistake_n be_v on_o the_o contrary_a hand_n when_o we_o quite_o forsake_v the_o word_n which_o christ_n himself_o have_v put_v into_o our_o mouth_n and_o esteem_v this_o prayer_n but_o as_o a_o copy_n to_o write_v after_o a_o mould_n to_o make_v prayer_n by_o and_o not_o a_o prayer_n itself_o this_o error_n have_v put_v itself_o in_o print_n and_o some_o of_o our_o novelist_n have_v take_v upon_o they_o to_o show_v reason_n why_o this_o shall_v never_o be_v use_v for_o a_o prayer_n his_o late_a majesty_n of_o worthy_a memory_n give_v a_o quick_a touch_n of_o this_o erroneous_a fancy_n in_o his_o learned_a and_o godly_a exposition_n of_o the_o lord_n prayer_n for_o he_o say_v that_o the_o brownist_n the_o author_n of_o this_o opinion_n do_v approve_v this_o prayer_n for_o a_o sampler_n to_o make_v prayer_n by_o but_o refuse_v it_o for_o a_o prayer_n because_o they_o hold_v all_o set_a form_n of_o prayer_n unlawful_a his_o majesty_n say_v well_o that_o they_o like_v pray_v by_o descant_n and_o not_o by_o plainesong_n by_o commentary_n but_o not_o by_o text_n 1_o one_o reason_n against_o the_o use_n of_o this_o prayer_n be_v because_o it_o be_v scripture_n which_o be_v a_o good_a reason_n to_o justify_v the_o use_n of_o it_o for_o that_o be_v the_o use_n of_o david_n psalm_n and_o the_o holy_a hymn_n of_o scripture_n to_o apply_v they_o to_o our_o occasion_n 28.46_o it_o be_v scripture_n in_o manus_fw-la tuas_fw-la domine_fw-la commendo_fw-la animam_fw-la meam_fw-la yet_o christ_n use_v it_o for_o a_o prayer_n upon_o the_o cross_n 2_o they_o allege_v that_o prayer_n must_v express_v our_o want_n to_o god_n in_o particular_a but_o the_o lord_n prayer_n be_v general_a our_o answer_n be_v that_o both_o in_o general_a and_o in_o particular_a we_o must_v pray_v to_o god_n and_o therefore_o our_o large_a prayer_n do_v refer_v themselves_o to_o the_o general_a head_n of_o this_o prayer_n and_o this_o conclude_v they_o all_o and_o this_o prayer_n be_v

and_o man_n the_o man_n jesus_n christ_n for_o in_o this_o last_o kind_n of_o gracious_a paternity_n god_n be_v only_o a_o father_n to_o we_o in_o christ_n and_o for_o his_o sake_n and_o to_o show_v our_o faith_n in_o god_n ground_v upon_o the_o sufficient_a merit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n we_o seek_v the_o face_n of_o god_n under_o that_o title_n which_o our_o jesus_n have_v buy_v with_o his_o blood_n which_o be_v call_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o everlasting_a covenant_n so_o that_o the_o name_n of_o father_n give_v to_o god_n in_o this_o prayer_n do_v teach_v we_o that_o all_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o church_n must_v be_v offer_v up_o to_o god_n in_o the_o mediation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o we_o call_v not_o god_fw-we father_n by_o angel_n or_o saint_n but_o by_o christ_n only_o therefore_o we_o must_v seek_v this_o father_n only_o in_o and_o by_o jesus_n christ_n he_o himself_o have_v teach_v we_o this_o for_o he_o say_v whatsoever_o you_o shall_v ask_v the_o father_n in_o my_o name_n it_o shall_v be_v give_v you_o the_o renegado_n of_o spalleto_n in_o his_o last_o manifesto_n do_v muster_v up_o heap_n of_o proof_n to_o maintain_v invocation_n of_o angel_n and_o
