whereof_o we_o speak_v afore_o which_o take_v away_o but_o the_o one_o part_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o we_o have_v find_v both_o these_o release_v in_o christ_n who_o we_o have_v take_v hold_v on_o by_o faith_n who_o not_o only_o have_v suffer_v for_o all_o those_o sin_n of_o we_o but_o also_o have_v ful_o sanctify_v our_o nature_n in_o himself_o for_o we_o &_o fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n therein_o for_o we_o so_o as_o we_o not_o only_o be_v set_v free_a by_o he_o from_o death_n but_o also_o obtain_v the_o reward_n of_o everlasting_a life_n in_o he_o question_n you_o conclude_v then_o that_o all_o thing_n necessary_a say_v for_o our_o salvation_n be_v find_v in_o christ_n alone_o too_o who_o we_o cleave_v by_o faith_n so_o as_o there_o be_v no_o damnation_n for_o they_o that_o be_v grief_v in_o christ_n ans_fw-fr i_o conclude_v so_o in_o deed_n yea_o and_o also_o that_o the_o same_o be_v the_o only_a knowledge_n of_o salvation_n quest_n you_o say_v also_o that_o this_o faith_n be_v the_o 29_o gift_n of_o god_n bestow_v upon_o we_o of_o his_o own_o mere_a grace_n &_o therefore_o that_o the_o first_o entrance_n of_o it_o be_v of_o god_n &_o not_o of_o ourselves_o ans_fw-fr i_o say_v so_o quest_n then_o i_o pray_v let_v we_o search_n to_o who_o give_v it_o be_v geeven_v for_o the_o thing_n itself_o witness_v that_o it_o be_v not_o give_v unto_o all_o man_n in_o asmuch_o as_o the_o believer_n have_v always_o be_v so_o few_o an._n yet_o do_v it_o not_o follow_v but_o that_o it_o be_v offer_v unto_o all_o man_n and_o therefore_o it_o seem_v y_fw-mi we_o shall_v first_o seek_v whither_o it_o be_v offer_v too_o all_o or_o no._n which_o demand_n will_v lead_v we_o to_o the_o very_a headspringe_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n too_o providence_n and_o predestination_n quest_n be_v it_o so_o and_o therefore_o i_o pray_v you_o show_v i_o what_o you_o call_v providence_n ans_fw-fr i_o mean_v by_o it_o not_o only_o that_o unspeakable_a be_v power_n whereby_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o god_n have_v foresee_v all_o thing_n from_o everlasting_a and_o most_o wise_o provide_v for_o all_o thing_n before_o hand_n but_o also_o that_o eternal_a decree_n or_o ordinance_n of_o the_o most_o wise_a and_o righteous_a god_n whereby_o every_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v have_v be_v and_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v be_v and_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v shall_v be_v accord_v as_o it_o like_v he_o too_o appoint_v from_o everlasting_a que._n say_v you_o then_o that_o this_o providence_n be_v the_o bringer_n to_o pass_v and_o the_o disposer_n of_o all_o thing_n ans_fw-fr it_o be_v so_o and_o that_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o it_o providence_n deserve_v some_o excellent_a name_n than_o to_o be_v call_v a_o cause_n for_o this_o be_v it_o that_o order_v all_o cause_n and_o rule_v even_o the_o particulare_v fall_n out_o of_o they_o so_o as_o they_o may_v be_v guide_v to_o their_o appoint_a end_n quest_n but_o there_o be_v some_o angel_n evil_a providence_n and_o man_n be_v evil_a by_o nature_n and_o what_o so_o ever_o proceed_v from_o either_o of_o these_o except_o it_o be_v from_o man_n that_o be_v regenerate_v must_v needs_o be_v evil_a as_o the_o thing_n that_o proceed_v from_o a_o evil_a beginning_n but_o god_n can_v be_v the_o author_n of_o evil_a thing_n ergo_fw-la he_o be_v not_o the_o author_n of_o all_o thing_n consider_v that_o so_o many_o evil_a thing_n be_v to_o be_v except_v ans_fw-fr as_o well_o each_o one_o of_o the_o angel_n for_o this_o there_o can_v no_o offpring_n be_v grant_v in_o a_o spiritual_a nature_n as_o also_o the_o first_o person_n of_o mankind_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n adam_n and_o eve_n be_v create_v good_a and_o therefore_o same_o none_o of_o they_o both_o be_v too_o be_v displace_v out_o of_o god_n ordinance_n quest_n admit_v it_o be_v so_o as_o touch_v that_o original_n and_o first_o state_n of_o they_o but_o see_v they_o be_v now_o corrupt_v and_o full_a of_o lewdness_n how_o can_v you_o bring_v they_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o that_o eternal_a ordinance_n of_o god_n which_o be_v so_o workefull_a but_o you_o must_v wrap_v god_n up_o in_o their_o naughtiness_n ans_fw-fr do_v you_o suppose_v it_o can_v stand_v with_o equity_n even_o by_o the_o judgement_n of_o themselves_o clock_n be_v they_o devil_n or_o be_v they_o the_o wicked_a sort_n of_o man_n that_o they_o shall_v therefore_o be_v exempt_v from_o subjection_n too_o their_o maker_n because_o they_o have_v be_v stubborn_a against_o he_o and_o yet_o must_v this_o need_n follow_v upon_o your_o say_v but_o thus_o stand_v y_fw-fr case_n i_o pray_v you_o do_v you_o never_o behold_v a_o clock_n wherein_o a_o certain_a wheel_n great_a than_o the_o rest_n turn_v to_o you_o right_n hand_n and_o carry_v all_o the_o rest_n about_o with_o he_o some_o to_o the_o right_a hand_n and_o other_o some_o too_o the_o left_a hand_n with_o a_o mere_a contrary_a motion_n one_o too_o another_o quest_n yes_o &_o true_o i_o have_v wonder_v oftentimes_o that_o man_n cunning_n shall_v be_v able_a to_o represent_v too_o my_o eye_n the_o thing_n that_o man_n mind_n be_v scarce_o able_a too_o attain_v unto_o in_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o sky_n an._n assure_v thyself_o that_o y●_n same_o be_v a_o true_a image_n of_o the_o divine_a providence_n so_o thou_o except_v this_o thing_n whereunto_o nothing_o can_v be_v find_v full_o like_a no_o not_o even_o in_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o sky_n and_o much_o less_o in_o those_o handwrought_a instrument_n because_o nothing_o be_v equal_a no_o nor_o to_o speak_v proper_o like_v unto_o the_o high_a namely_o that_o god_n almighty_a who_o i_o now_o compare_v too_o the_o great_a wheel_n which_o be_v the_o mover_n of_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v in_o such_o wise_n in_o the_o world_n as_o that_o he_o be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o world_n and_o yet_o have_v give_v selfmove_v too_o each_o one_o of_o the_o wheel_n that_o move_v themselves_o and_o that_o in_o suchwise_o as_o he_o himself_o be_v by_o no_o mean_n move_v and_o yet_o move_v all_o thing_n according_a too_o his_o eternal_a providence_n and_o this_o mystery_n of_o god_n providence_n be_v represent_v to_o we_o by_o god_n appointment_n in_o the_o vision_n of_o ezechiell_n wherein_o we_o have_v this_o to_o mark_v etc_n further_o that_o those_o fourfold_a image_n be_v overcover_v with_o wing_n &_o the_o wheel_n fold_v one_o within_o another_o and_o that_o god_n be_v plase_z high_a above_o all_o thing_n lest_o we_o may_v surmise_v the_o mover_n himself_o to_o be_v move_v together_o with_o the_o cause_n or_o lest_o we_o may_v overcurious_o imagine_v ourselves_o able_a to_o perceive_v the_o reason_n of_o those_o several_a move_n this_o foundation_n be_v lay_v i_o answer_v three_o thing_n the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o instrument_n which_o have_v life_n &_o be_v endue_v with_o reason_n of_o which_o sort_n be_v angel_n and_o man_n be_v so_o stir_v by_o god_n their_o maker_n as_o that_o they_o also_o stir_v themselves_o by_o a_o inward_a selfmove_n of_o their_o own_o and_o therefore_o that_o in_o the_o bring_n to_o pass_v of_o one_o action_n there_o meet_v two_o cause_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n god_n who_o be_v dissever_v from_o the_o instrument_n and_o yet_o give_v y_fw-fr instrument_n begin_n to_o move_v itself_o and_o the_o very_a instrument_n move_v itself_o another_o be_v that_o these_o instrument_n be_v so_o move_v by_o god_n as_o that_o he_o himself_o stir_v always_o well_o but_o the_o instrument_n if_o they_o be_v evil_a go_v a_o contrary_a motion_n that_o be_v to_o say_v always_o amiss_o but_o if_o they_o be_v good_a so_o as_o the_o first_o author_n who_o move_v always_o well_o and_o the_o instrument_n which_o move_v it_o do_v agree_v then_o follow_v a_o good_a and_o commendable_a work_n the_o three_o be_v that_o god_n so_o move_v the_o evil_a instrument_n for_o it_o be_v they_o only_a who_o we_o have_v now_o in_o question_n &_o they_o on_o the_o other_o side_n be_v so_o move_v by_o themselves_o that_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o dublem●ning_n begin_v there_o be_v also_o a_o double_a work_n which_o seem_v notwithstanding_o to_o be_v but_o all_o one_o and_o the_o same_o be_v good_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o good_a beginning_n and_o evil_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o evil_a beginning_n quest_n i_o will_v have_v these_o thing_n enlighten_v with_o some_o example_n ans_fw-fr i_o will_v so_o and_o that_o with_o assure_a and_o providence_n evident_a example_n but_o first_o i_o will_v put_v to_o this_o distinction_n that_o god_n the_o notable_a workmaster_n use_v the_o evil_a instrument_n well_o whatsoever_o they_o be_v do_v either_o match_n they_o one_o against_o another_o or_o benefit_n the_o good_a by_o y_fw-es service_n of_o they_o &_o
