it_o be_v needless_a for_o the_o man_n be_v good_a already_o else_o the_o work_n can_v not_o have_v be_v good_a we_o may_v therefore_o say_v work_n be_v rather_o justify_v by_o the_o person_n of_o a_o

be_v just_a if_o we_o have_v no_o other_o reason_n against_o justification_n by_o work_n but_o this_o this_o be_v sufficient_a second_o hence_o we_o learn_v that_o till_o a_o man_n be_v call_v and_o his_o person_n justify_v and_o sanctify_v all_o that_o ever_o he_o do_v be_v sin_n 1._o his_o common_a action_n his_o eat_n drink_v sleep_a walk_a talk_a be_v all_o sin_n yea_o 2._o the_o work_n of_o

outward_a gravity_n meekness_n sobriety_n temperance_n quietness_n uprightness_n and_o all_o outward_a conformity_n be_v all_o sin_n yea_o more_o than_o all_o this_o his_o best_a action_n namely_o

all_o sin_n unto_o he_o if_o he_o have_v not_o a_o believe_a and_o penitent_a heart_n yea_o such_o sin_n as_o shall_v condemn_v h●m_n if_o he_o have_v no_o other_o object_n this_o shall_v seem_v strange_a divinity_n that_o the_o most_o holy_a action_n as_o prayer_n etc._n etc._n shall_v be_v damnable_a sin_n i_o answer_v they_o be_v in_o themselves_o holy_a and_o good_a and_o as_o far_o forth_o as_o god_n have_v command_v they_o yet_o in_o the_o doer_n they_o be_v sin_n because_o he_o do_v they_o from_o a_o foul_a &_o unholy_a heart_n for_o the_o same_o action_n may_v be_v holy_a in_o itself_o and_o in_o regard_n of_o god_n the_o author_n of_o it_o and_o yet_o a_o sin_n in_o he_o that_o be_v the_o doer_n of_o it_o as_o clear_a water_n pure_a in_o the_o fountain_n be_v

heart_n be_v not_o cleanse_v by_o faith_n and_o his_o person_n accept_v of_o god_n it_o be_v a_o sin_n unto_o he_o and_o if_o he_o repent_v not_o shall_v be_v his_o condemnation_n cain_n sin_v not_o only_o in_o hate_v and_o murder_v his_o brother_n in_o lie_v and_o dissemble_v with_o god_n but_o cain_n sin_v also_o even_o in_o offer_v sacrifice_n and_o abel_n sacrifice_n have_v be_v a_o damnable_a sin_n but_o that_o his_o person_n be_v justify_v before_o god_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o all_o this_o be_v good_a for_o nothing_o in_o the_o work_n be_v able_a to_o make_v a_o action_n acceptable_a to_o god_n but_o only_o the_o acceptation_n of_o the_o person_n by_o christ._n this_o be_v so_o it_o stand_v we_o every_o one_o in_o hand_n to_o look_v to_o ourselves_o and_o to_o labour_v above_o all_o thing_n for_o faith_n and_o repentance_n that_o so_o our_o person_n may_v be_v accept_v righteous_a before_o god_n and_o thereby_o our_o action_n accept_v also_o if_o it_o be_v a_o miserable_a thing_n that_o all_o thy_o action_n even_o holy_a action_n shall_v be_v sin_n then_o labour_v to_o be_v justify_v for_o that_o only_o can_v make_v thy_o work_n accept_v if_o not_o then_o though_o thou_o labour_v never_o so_o much_o to_o be_v approve_v in_o the_o world_n &_o set_v never_o so_o glorious_a a_o show_n upon_o thy_o work_n to_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n they_o be_v all_o abominable_a sin_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n they_o shall_v go_v for_o no_o better_a prithee_o and_o teach_v all_o thy_o life_n long_o nay_o give_v thy_o life_n to_o die_v for_o religion_n give_v all_o thy_o good_n to_o the_o poor_a deprive_v thy_o flesh_n of_o all_o delight_n build_v church_n college_n bridge_n highway_n etc._n etc._n and_o there_o may_v come_v a_o poor_a shepherd_n and_o for_o his_o keep_n of_o his_o sheep_n be_v accept_v when_o thou_o with_o all_o this_o pomp_n of_o outward_a holiness_n may_v be_v reject_v and_o why_o this_o only_o because_o he_o have_v faith_n &_o thou_o have_v none_o his_o person_n be_v justify_v before_o god_n and_o thou_o be_v not_o therefore_o let_v this_o be_v my_o counsel_n from_o abel_n labour_v not_o so_o much_o to_o work_v glorious_a work_n as_o that_o which_o thou_o do_v do_v it_o in_o faith_n faith_n make_v the_o mean_a work_n accept_v and_o want_v of_o faith_n make_v the_o most_o glorious_a work_v reject_v for_o so_o faith_n the_o text._n abel_n must_v be_v accept_v else_o his_o sacrifice_n be_v not_o thus_o we_o see_v abel_n be_v just_a and_o god_n so_o account_v he_o the_o second_o point_n be_v that_o god_n give_v testimony_n he_o be_v so_o in_o these_o word_n god_n give_v testimony_n what_o testimony_n it_o be_v that_o god_n give_v of_o abel_n and_o his_o gift_n it_o be_v not_o express_v in_o the_o word_n and_o so_o it_o be_v not_o certain_a but_o it_o be_v very_o likely_a that_o when_o he_o &_o cain_n offer_v god_n in_o special_a mercy_n send_v fire_n from_o heaven_n and_o burn_v up_o abel_n sacrifice_n but_o not_o cain_n for_o so_o it_o please_v the_o lord_n often_o afterward_o when_o he_o will_v show_v that_o he_o accept_v any_o man_n or_o his_o work_n he_o answer_v they_o by_o fire_n from_o heaven_n so_o he_o burn_v up_o the_o first_o sacrifice_n that_o aaron_n offer_v levit._n 9.24_o so_o he_o answer_v solomon_n 2._o chron._n 7.1_o and_o so_o elias_n 2._o king_n 18.28_o and_o so_o it_o be_v likely_a that_o he_o give_v this_o testimony_n that_o he_o accept_v abel_n and_o his_o offering_n this_o be_v a_o great_a prerogative_n that_o abel_n and_o the_o father_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n have_v we_o have_v not_o this_o but_o we_o have_v a_o great_a for_o we_o have_v that_o that_o be_v the_o substance_n and_o truth_n and_o body_n of_o this_o for_o we_o have_v also_o the_o fire_n of_o god_n that_o be_v his_o spirit_n come_v down_o into_o our_o heart_n every_o day_n not_o visible_o but_o spiritual_o and_o burn_v up_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o believer_n his_o sin_n and_o corruption_n and_o light_v the_o light_n of_o true_a faith_n that_o shall_v never_o be_v put_v out_o the_o use_n hereof_o be_v this_o as_o no_o sacrifice_n in_o the_o old_a law_n please_v god_n but_o such_o as_o be_v burn_v by_o fire_n from_o heaven_n send_v down_o either_o then_o or_o afore_o so_o our_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n that_o be_v our_o invocation_n of_o god_n name_n our_o sacrifice_n of_o praise_n our_o duty_n of_o religion_n our_o work_n of_o mercy_n and_o love_n never_o please_v god_n unless_o they_o proceed_v from_o a_o heart_n purge_v by_o the_o fire_n of_o god_n spirit_n that_o be_v from_o a_o believe_v and_o repentant_a heart_n both_o which_o be_v kindle_v and_o light_v and_o daily_o continue_v by_o that_o fire_n of_o god_n spirit_n therefore_o it_o be_v that_o paul_n say_v 1._o tim._n 1.4_o that_o love_n must_v come_v out_o of_o a_o pure_a heart_n and_o good_a conscience_n and_o faith_n unfeigned_a the_o duty_n of_o religion_n and_o work_n of_o love_n come_v from_o this_o purge_a heart_n ascend_v into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n as_o a_o smoke_n of_o most_o acceptable_a sacrifice_n and_o be_v as_o a_o sweet_a perfume_n in_o the_o nostril_n of_o the_o lord_n now_o of_o what_o do_v god_n thus_o testify_v of_o his_o gift_n it_o may_v here_o be_v ask_v at_o the_o first_o how_o can_v abel_n give_v a_o gift_n to_o god_n have_v the_o lord_n need_v of_o any_o thing_n and_o be_v not_o all_o thing_n his_o i_o answer_v god_n be_v sovereign_a lord_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o all_o creature_n yet_o have_v he_o so_o give_v his_o creature_n unto_o man_n to_o use_v as_o that_o they_o become_v man_n own_o and_o so_o he_o may_v esteem_v &_o use_v they_o and_o be_v man_n a_o man_n may_v in_o token_n of_o his_o thankfulness_n return_v they_o again_o to_o god_n especial_o see_v god_n accept_v they_o be_v so_o offer_v as_o most_o free_a gift_n this_o show_v we_o first_o the_o wonderful_a mercy_n of_o god_n that_o whereas_o we_o can_v offer_v he_o nothing_o but_o his_o own_o he_o vouchsafe_v to_o accept_v a_o gift_n offer_v of_o his_o own_o even_o as_o though_o we_o have_v of_o our_o own_o to_o offer_v 2._o see_v here_o a_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o old_a and_o

gold_n silver_n or_o promotion_n but_o reconciliation_n with_o my_o god_n and_o his_o favour_n in_o jesus_n christ_n if_o thou_o have_v these_o two_o than_o thou_o go_v beyond_o cain_n then_o shall_v thou_o stand_v before_o god_n with_o abel_n and_o be_v accept_v remember_v these_o two_o humiliation_n for_o sin_n and_o desire_v of_o reconciliation_n these_o two_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o religion_n if_o thou_o have_v these_o thou_o be_v bless_v with_o abel_n if_o not_o curse_a with_o cain_n howsoever_o thou_o live_v in_o the_o world_n if_o thou_o say_v cain_n kill_v his_o brother_n and_o so_o will_v not_o i_o do_v for_o all_o the_o world_n i_o will_v do_v no_o man_n hurt_v in_o body_n or_o good_n this_o will_v not_o serve_v for_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n have_v no_o respect_n to_o cain_n afore_o he_o kill_v his_o brother_n even_o when_o he_o offer_v his_o sacrifice_n and_o therefore_o this_o duty_n be_v most_o necessary_a and_o there_o be_v no_o shift_v it_o off_o 2._o cain_n offer_v as_o well_o as_o abel_n yea_o cain_n offer_v afore_o abel_n as_o it_o be_v manifest_a in_o genesis_n 4.3_o and_o yet_o abel_n sacrifice_n be_v better_o when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o proof_n and_o be_v accept_v &_o not_o cain_n which_o come_v first_o hence_o we_o learn_v that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v more_o forward_o than_o many_o other_o in_o many_o outward_a duty_n of_o religion_n and_o yet_o not_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n another_o may_v be_v not_o so_o forward_o to_o the_o duty_n and_o yet_o when_o he_o come_v be_v better_o accept_v whence_o come_v this_o what_o be_v forwardness_n in_o good_a duty_n a_o fault_n nothing_o less_o but_o hence_o it_o be_v he_o that_o outward_o be_v most_o forward_o may_v come_v in_o hypocrisy_n &_o without_o faith_n the_o want_n whereof_o make_v his_o forwardness_n nothing_o worth_a many_o such_o have_v we_o in_o our_o church_n great_a frequenter_n of_o place_n and_o exercise_n of_o religion_n and_o yet_o they_o come_v but_o as_o cain_n do_v or_o it_o may_v be_v in_o worse_a intent_n thy_o forwardness_n be_v to_o be_v commend_v but_o take_v this_o with_o thou_o also_o care_v not_o so_o much_o to_o be_v first_o at_o the_o sermon_n or_o to_o be_v there_o often_o they_o other_o as_o to_o go_v with_o true_a faith_n repentance_n &_o a_o heart_n hunger_a for_o grace_n if_o not_o boast_v not_o in_o thy_o forwardness_n cain_n offer_v

forwardness_n shall_v be_v reject_v as_o cain_n be_v three_o do_v cain_n offer_v as_o well_o as_o abel_n hence_o we_o learn_v that_o the_o church_n militant_a be_v a_o mix_v &_o compound_a company_n of_o man_n not_o of_o one_o sort_n but_o true_a believer_n &_o hypocrite_n mingle_v together_o as_o here_o in_o the_o very_a infancy_n of_o the_o church_n here_o be_v a_o cain_n worship_v in_o show_n

the_o good_a shall_v never_o be_v quite_o separate_v from_o the_o bad_a until_o christ_n himself_o do_v it_o at_o the_o last_o judgement_n goat_n shall_v always_o be_v mingle_v among_o the_o sheep_n till_o christ_n the_o great_a shepherd_n do_v separate_v they_o himself_o math._n 25.34_o and_o he_o that_o imagine_v a_o perfect_a separation_n till_o then_o imagine_v a_o fancy_n in_o his_o brain_n and_o such_o a_o church_n as_o can_v be_v find_v upon_o the_o earth_n this_o be_v so_o let_v no_o man_n therefore_o be_v afraid_a to_o join_v himself_o to_o the_o visible_a church_n neither_o let_v any_o that_o be_v in_o it_o go_v out_o of_o it_o because_o the_o bad_a be_v mingle_v with_o the_o good_a for_o so_o it_o have_v be_v always_o &_o ever_o will_v be_v he_o than_o that_o will_v go_v

that_o cain_n &_o abel_n offer_v hence_o we_o learn_v that_o the_o church_n of_o god_n which_o true_o profess_v his_o name_n have_v be_v ever_o since_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n for_o this_o

without_o the_o word_n of_o god_n there_o can_v be_v no_o church_n for_o without_o faith_n be_v no_o church_n because_o the_o church_n be_v a_o company_n of_o believer_n and_o without_o the_o word_n it_o be_v no_o faith_n therefore_o no_o word_n no_o faith_n no_o faith_n no_o church_n so_o then_o the_o scripture_n be_v afore_o the_o church_n but_o pen_v after_o thus_o we_o see_v that_o cain_n and_o abel_n offer_v now_o second_o what_o offer_v they_o sacrifice_n sacrifice_n be_v use_v in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n for_o two_o end_n 1._o when_o a_o sacrifice_n be_v offer_v especial_o of_o

of_o the_o people_n these_o be_v the_o 2._o principal_a end_n of_o sacrifice_n &_o for_o these_o 2._o end_n do_v cain_n &_o abel_n offer_v cain_n in_o hypocrisy_n and_o for_o fashion_n sake_n abel_n in_o truth_n conscience_n and_o sincerity_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o old_a sacrifice_n so_o be_v it_o in_o our_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n whereof_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v all_o type_n

to_o show_v their_o power_n and_o puissance_n and_o to_o magnify_v themselves_o and_o to_o be_v fit_a habitation_n for_o their_o greatness_n so_o god_n make_v the_o three_o heaven_n to_o be_v the_o

in_o this_o sense_n be_v it_o true_a that_o god_n make_v all_o thing_n for_o man_n as_o man_n for_o himself_o namely_o all_o thing_n either_o for_o his_o soul_n or_o body_n or_o both_o either_o for_o

until_o the_o last_o judgement_n and_o after_o that_o for_o both_o soul_n &_o body_n hence_o we_o learn_v diverse_a instruction_n first_o in_o that_o the_o three_o heaven_n which_o never_o be_v see_v with_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n be_v here_o positive_o affirm_v to_o be_v make_v by_o god_n we_o learn_v that_o therefore_o it_o be_v one_o of_o god_n creature_n and_o not_o eternal_a as_o some_o hold_n and_o go_v about_o to_o prove_v thus_o god_n be_v eternal_a but_o he_o must_v be_v in_o some_o place_n and_o heaven_n be_v the_o seat_n and_o place_n of_o god_n therefore_o it_o be_v coeternal_a with_o god_n but_o i_o answer_v from_o god_n word_n that_o though_o heaven_n be_v the_o seat_n and_o throne_n of_o god_n glory_n and_o where_o he_o manifest_v and_o magnify_v his_o glory_n yet_o be_v

for_o the_o same_o be_v true_a of_o the_o angel_n also_o and_o it_o please_v god_n wisdom_n for_o special_a cause_n to_o name_v no_o creature_n particular_o in_o the_o creation_n but_o visible_a whereas_o we_o know_v both_o from_o our_o creed_n and_o god_n word_n itself_o that_o he_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o all_o thing_n both_o visible_a and_o invisible_a therefore_o though_o we_o know_v
