weighty_a question_n which_o be_v this_o quest_n what_o be_v it_o to_o have_v christ_n form_v in_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n now_o in_o order_n to_o the_o answer_v of_o this_o question_n it_o be_v in_o my_o heart_n to_o make_v use_n of_o that_o parable_n of_o our_o bless_a lord_n as_o we_o find_v ●t_a in_o one_o of_o the_o evangelist_n where_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v liken_v unto_o a_o

all_o it_o come_v to_o ripe_a fruit._n now_o as_o to_o the_o seed_n of_o corn_n to_o which_o he_o compare_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o which_o the_o scripture_n call_v incorruptible_a seed_n be_v a_o seed_n of_o god_n which_o come_v from_o he_o immediate_o as_o i_o may_v say_v and_o yet_o come_v to_o we_o through_o christ_n 1_o john_n 3.9_o whosoever_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n do_v not_o commit_v sin_n for_o his_o seed_n remain_v in_o he_o and_o he_o can_v sin_n because_o he_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n now_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n which_o be_v call_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v compare_v to_o a_o grain_n of_o corn_n and_o all_o seed_n must_v have_v a_o soil_n and_o earth_n to_o grow_v in_o what_o be_v the_o soil_n where_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n

the_o husbandman_n take_v pain_n to_o cut_v up_o and_o root_v up_o those_o weed_n and_o tare_n to_o keep_v his_o ground_n clean_o that_o so_o the_o clean_a seed_n may_v grow_v and_o come_v to_o ripeness_n and_o maturity_n so_o it_o be_v very_o ordinary_a and_o usual_a for_o the_o husbandman_n to_o weed_n his_o corn_n when_o the_o corn_n be_v young_a as_o i_o have_v see_v it_o practise_v and_o those_o that_o go_v to_o weed_n the_o corn_n must_v be_v very_o tender_a lest_o they_o ttead_o under_o foot_n the_o corn_n and_o tender_a plant_n they_o must_v do_v it_o careful_o tender_o and_o
