without_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n they_o be_v most_o vain_a see_v then_o that_o the_o hope_n of_o this_o world_n be_v most_o vain_a and_o deceitful_a and_o the_o divine_a hope_n sure_a and_o certain_a let_v we_o pray_v unto_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o will_v give_v we_o grace_n to_o put_v all_o our_o trust_n in_o he_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v render_v unto_o he_o all_o praise_n honour_n and_o glory_n through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n amen_n how_o that_o albeit_o man_n ought_v to_o trust_v in_o god_n yet_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o tempt_v he_o sermon_n 5._o although_o that_o man_n ought_v to_o depend_v whole_o upon_o god_n and_o in_o he_o to_o put_v all_o their_o hope_n &_o confidence_n yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o ought_v not_o therefore_o to_o abide_v in_o idleness_n &_o wait_v for_o manna_n from_o heaven_n but_o every_o one_o ought_v to_o choose_v he_o a_o art_n or_o honest_a &_o profitable_a exercise_n according_a to_o which_o he_o feel_v himself_o call_v by_o god_n that_o he_o may_v be_v able_a to_o live_v of_o his_o travail_n do_v all_o to_o the_o profit_n of_o his_o neighbour_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n without_o envy_n vain_a glory_n pride_n covetousness_n and_o vice_n everye_o one_o also_o ought_v in_o use_v their_o say_a trade_n not_o to_o be_v overmuch_o careful_a with_o be_v in_o such_o sort_n attentive_a and_o labourous_a that_o they_o will_v kill_v themselves_o bring_v their_o life_n in_o jeopardy_n weaken_v themselves_o or_o let_v thing_n undo_v necessary_a for_o the_o soul_n as_o of_o order_v well_o his_o household_n or_o help_v those_o which_o be_v in_o necessity_n and_o have_v not_o wherewith_o to_o sustain_v themselves_o of_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v need_n thereoff_v and_o other_o work_v necessary_a for_o the_o health_n of_o the_o soul_n &_o the_o benefit_n of_o our_o neighbour_n according_a as_o the_o best_o order_v love_n do_v require_v and_o moreover_o the_o christian_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v careful_a as_o christ_n say_v in_o think_v and_o say_v what_o shall_v we_o eat_v what_o shall_v we_o drink_v &_o wherewith_o shall_v we_o be_v clothe_v as_o the_o gentile_n do_v which_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o god_n have_v care_n &_o providence_n of_o they_o not_o that_o a_o christian_a man_n ought_v not_o use_v due_a diligence_n &_o care_n in_o use_v his_o art_n occupation_n and_o business_n and_o likewise_o in_o seek_v by_o honest_a mean_n to_o get_v his_o hire_n or_o duty_n and_o provide_v he_o thing_n necessary_a yea_o if_o in_o the_o foresay_a thing_n they_o shall_v be_v negligent_a such_o negligence_n shall_v be_v unto_o they_o a_o damnable_a thing_n but_o now_o they_o need_v not_o be_v vex_v and_o careful_a in_o think_v and_o fear_v that_o although_o they_o do_v the_o foresay_a thing_n god_n will_v in_o any_o wise_a fail_v they_o so_o that_o man_n ought_v of_o duty_n to_o be_v careful_a in_o do_v that_o which_o belong_v unto_o he_o to_o do_v but_o he_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v careful_a in_o doubt_v that_o god_n will_v not_o do_v all_o that_o which_o apperteyneeh_n unto_o he_o christ_n condemn_v &_o forbid_v only_o that_o carefulness_n which_o grow_v of_o distrust_n in_o god._n likewise_o the_o purpose_n of_o christ_n in_o condemn_v those_o which_o be_v careful_a for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v be_v not_o to_o condemn_v the_o carefulness_n of_o such_o as_o honest_o gather_v together_o that_o they_o may_v be_v the_o better_a able_a to_o provide_v for_o the_o want_n of_o their_o neighbour_n as_o joseph_n do_v in_o egypt_n forasmuch_o as_o such_o carefulness_n grow_v of_o charity_n but_o his_o purpose_n be_v only_o to_o condemn_v and_o forbid_v the_o carefulness_n of_o those_o which_o gather_v riches_n together_o for_o covetousness_n and_o a_o distrust_n that_o they_o have_v in_o god_n so_o that_o a_o good_a christian_n ought_v too_o do_v that_o which_o be_v his_o duty_n to_o do_v and_o then_o to_o be_v sure_a &_o certain_a that_o god_n will_v not_o forsake_v he_o and_o so_o he_o shall_v live_v without_o any_o great_a grief_n and_o although_o a_o christian_a man_n do_v not_o all_o that_o be_v his_o duty_n he_o ought_v not_o in_o any_o wise_a at_o any_o time_n fall_v from_o confidence_n in_o god_n but_o to_o trust_v &_o say_v albeit_o i_o be_o a_o wicked_a person_n god_n be_v good_a which_o will_v help_v i_o 13_o job._n 13_o and_o if_o i_o know_v that_o god_n will_v not_o give_v i_o raiment_n yea_o will_v take_v away_o all_o that_o i_o have_v so_o that_o i_o with_o all_o my_o household_n must_v die_v for_o hunger_n i_o will_v in_o no_o wise_n cease_v to_o trust_v in_o he_o because_o i_o know_v certain_o by_o faith_n that_o he_o will_v do_v all_o for_o my_o benefit_n with_o great_a charity_n also_o a_o christian_a man_n ought_v if_o he_o will_v not_o fall_v unto_o the_o earth_n with_o his_o hope_n but_o stand_v still_o lift_v up_o unto_o god_n with_o hope_n always_o as_o be_v his_o duty_n to_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o bread_n which_o he_o get_v be_v not_o obtain_v by_o any_o his_o own_o strength_n wit_n diligence_n or_o cunning_a but_o only_o by_o god_n and_o so_o also_o he_o ought_v to_o think_v that_o not_o that_o bread_n which_o he_o eat_v do_v sustain_v and_o nourish_v he_o but_o the_o virtue_n of_o god_n likewise_o a_o christian_a when_o he_o be_v sick_a may_v and_o aught_o to_o use_v medicine_n and_o physician_n without_o have_v therefore_o any_o confidence_n in_o they_o 16_o 2._o par._n 16_o but_o in_o look_v &_o hope_v for_o help_v whole_o by_o god_n asa_n king_n of_o the_o jew_n sin_v not_o in_o that_o he_o use_v physician_n but_o that_o he_o put_v his_o confidence_n in_o they_o &_o not_o in_o god_n and_o in_o like_a manner_n we_o may_v use_v the_o help_n of_o magistrate_n as_o paul_n use_v when_o he_o appeal_v unto_o caesar_n so_o that_o we_o offend_v not_o charity_n &_o do_v not_o by_o this_o mean_a absent_a ourselves_o with_o our_o hope_n from_o god_n and_o last_o a_o good_a christian_n ought_v with_o charity_n when_o it_o be_v expedient_a use_v the_o help_n and_o commodity_n of_o thing_n ordain_v by_o god_n &_o his_o creature_n so_o that_o with_o all_o his_o hope_n he_o may_v abide_v ever_o steadfast_a in_o god_n and_o in_o like_a sort_n also_o ought_v he_o to_o do_v of_o thing_n pertain_v to_o the_o soul_n a_o christian_a man_n ought_v not_o to_o say_v i_o be_o one_o of_o the_o elect_v wherefore_o i_o will_v live_v carnal_o because_o i_o shall_v in_o any_o wise_a be_v save_v or_o it_o be_v true_a that_o i_o can_v not_o with_o my_o work_n

he_o ought_v to_o travail_v by_o all_o mean_n that_o he_o know_v &_o can_v to_o seek_v the_o health_n and_o profit_n of_o his_o neighbour_n &_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n without_o put_v any_o confidence_n in_o his_o own_o work_n if_o hope_n be_v ground_v upon_o our_o own_o work_n man_n may_v of_o necessity_n hope_v more_o or_o less_o according_a as_o they_o have_v do_v mo_z or_o few_o good_a work_n but_o forasmuch_o as_o our_o hope_n ought_v to_o be_v found_v only_o upon_o god_n therefore_o both_o the_o good_a and_o bad_a while_o they_o be_v in_o this_o present_a life_n ought_v to_o have_v a_o like_a hope_n and_o that_o most_o perfect_a and_o whereas_o the_o good_a by_o their_o spiritual_a &_o holy_a work_n may_v and_o aught_o to_o take_v occasion_n to_o think_v and_o
