of_o the_o gospel_n do_v clean_o contrary_a it_o reprove_v the_o evil_a corruption_n of_o nature_n and_o subdue_v it_o and_o therefore_o they_o that_o have_v find_v this_o effect_n by_o the_o gospel_n

objection_n after_o the_o apostle_n set_v forth_o his_o fidelity_n diligence_n and_o painfulness_n in_o his_o ministry_n but_o first_o he_o meet_v with_o a_o objection_n that_o this_o shall_v not_o

he_o so_o to_o be_v afflict_v and_o we_o know_v it_o be_v the_o malice_n of_o man_n because_o they_o see_v any_o afflict_a and_o distress_a they_o think_v they_o not_o to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o

because_o he_o see_v the_o godly_a so_o afflict_a and_o in_o misery_n so_o here_o these_o see_v the_o apostle_n one_o of_o the_o chief_a of_o the_o apostle_n to_o be_v so_o grievous_o persecute_v

therefore_o they_o may_v think_v he_o be_v no_o true_a minister_n of_o god_n nor_o belove_a that_o god_n will_v suffer_v he_o thus_o to_o be_v deal_v withal_o solution_n but_o the_o apostle_n answer_v that_o he_o have_v great_a cause_n of_o rejoice_v by_o his_o affliction_n add_v two_o reason_n 1_o one_o he_o make_v supply_v of_o the_o affliction_n of_o christ_n that_o which_o be_v want_v in_o

strong_a argument_n of_o the_o papist_n for_o their_o doctrine_n of_o justification_n by_o work_n objection_n and_o one_o be_v they_o say_v that_o saint_n paul_n supply_v the_o passion_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o his_o passion_n be_v not_o sufficient_a but_o must_v be_v peece_v and_o patch_v with_o good_a work_n second_o they_o say_v the_o apostle_n suffer_v for_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o the_o martyrdom_n or_o merit_n of_o martyr_n be_v to_o be_v give_v to_o saint_n for_o their_o good_a solution_n for_o the_o answer_n of_o these_o we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o the_o

his_o affliction_n and_o to_o follow_v he_o heb._n 2._o christ_n abase_v himself_o that_o he_o may_v make_v himself_o like_o we_o in_o suffer_v and_o therefore_o we_o must_v be_v like_a unto_o he_o in_o suffering_n so_o that_o we_o see_v what_o a_o argument_n they_o make_v that_o because_o we_o must_v be_v like_o he_o in_o affliction_n therefore_o our_o affliction_n must_v merit_v nothing_o less_o another_o reason_n in_o that_o he_o say_v that_o which_o want_v in_o his_o affliction_n be_v supply_v it_o be_v mean_v in_o regard_n of_o his_o feel_n &_o suffer_v with_o they_o in_o their_o

objection_n the_o other_o reason_n they_o use_v be_v in_o that_o he_o say_v he_o suffer_v for_o the_o church_n solution_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v indeed_o that_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n and_o the_o child_n of_o god_n when_o they_o suffer_v suffer_v for_o the_o church_n not_o for_o the_o redemption_n but_o for_o note_n note_n the_o confirmation_n comfort_n and_o example_n of_o the_o
