the_o best_a robe_n &_o they_o shall_v all_o be_v conqueror_n over_o all_o their_o spiritual_a enemy_n and_o be_v make_v king_n and_o priest_n and_o they_o shall_v have_v all_o these_o spiritual_a

who_o the_o king_n of_o heaven_n will_v favour_v indeed_o and_o so_o much_o for_o this_o doctrine_n then_o the_o father_n say_v unto_o his_o servant_n in_o that_o the_o father_n when_o he_o will_v give_v any_o gift_n to_o his_o son_n do_v it_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o servant_n we_o learn_v this_o doctrine_n doct._n 8_o that_o when_o god_n do_v purpose_n to_o bestow_v upon_o any_o of_o his_o child_n any_o save_a grace_n or_o special_a gift_n he_o do_v it_o not_o immediate_o from_o his_o own_o hand_n but_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o servant_n the_o minister_n the_o minister_n of_o god_n be_v the_o conduit_n pipe_n to_o convey_v grace_n and_o gift_n to_o the_o child_n of_o god_n i_o can_v have_v time_n to_o prosecute_v this_o point_n because_o the_o time_n be_v pass_v already_o and_o therefore_o i_o will_v leave_v it_o and_o only_o touch_v a_o little_a of_o a_o other_o doctrine_n and_o so_o we_o will_v make_v a_o end_n for_o this_o time_n and_o the_o father_n say_v bring_v forth_o the_o best_a robe_n and_o put_v it_o upon_o he_o and_o put_v a_o ring_n on_o his_o finger_n and_o shoe_n etc._n etc._n in_o that_o come_v to_o his_o father_n with_o repentance_n and_o humility_n the_o father_n give_v he_o all_o thing_n he_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o come_v ragged_a he_o have_v the_o best_a robe_n put_v upon_o he_o and_o a_o ring_n upon_o his_o hand_n for_o ornament_n and_o shoe_n etc._n etc._n from_o hence_o we_o learn_v this_o doctrine_n that_o whosoever_o come_v to_o god_n with_o a_o humble_a heart_n and_o true_a repentance_n doct._n 9_o shall_v receive_v at_o god_n hand_n whatsoever_o he_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o that_o repentance_n will_v get_v any_o thing_n at_o god_n hand_n not_o only_o for_o necessity_n but_o also_o something_o for_o delight_n this_o may_v be_v prove_v by_o the_o word_n which_o christ_n speak_v to_o the_o church_n of_o laodicea_n she_o boast_v of_o her_o plenty_n when_o as_o she_o be_v full_a of_o penury_n sheee_o think_v she_o have_v all_o thing_n when_o she_o want_v all_o good_a thing_n yet_o christ_n promise_v she_o if_o she_o will_v come_v to_o he_o he_o will_v furnish_v she_o with_o all_o good_a thing_n and_o if_o she_o will_v receive_v his_o council_n he_o will_v deck_v she_o with_o the_o rich_a jewel_n and_o therefore_o he_o say_v 3.17.18_o reu._n 3.17.18_o i_o council_n thou_o to_o buy_v of_o i_o gold_n try_v by_o the_o fire_n that_o thou_o may_v be_v make_v rich_a and_o white_a raiment_n that_o thou_o may_v be_v clothe_v and_o that_o thy_o filthy_a nakedness_n may_v not_o appear_v &_o anoint_v thy_o eye_n with_o eye_n salve_v that_o thou_o may_v see_v etc._n etc._n now_o in_o buy_v and_o sell_v there_o must_v be_v somewhat_o give_v and_o receive_v now_o therefore_o she_o must_v sell_v her_o sin_n by_o repentance_n and_o godly_a sorrow_n and_o she_o must_v esteem_v of_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n and_o grace_n of_o christ_n in_o lieu_n thereof_o and_o this_o be_v do_v she_o shall_v receive_v in_o steed_n of_o her_o poverty_n the_o riches_n and_o grace_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n and_o in_o stead_n of_o her_o filthiness_n she_o shall_v have_v the_o white_a raiment_n and_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n to_o cover_v she_o and_o all_o her_o wickedness_n and_o infirmity_n shall_v be_v take_v from_o she_o and_o whereas_o she_o be_v blind_a that_o shall_v be_v remove_v and_o her_o eye_n shall_v be_v open_v and_o her_o understanding_n enlighten_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n &_o knowledge_n but_o what_o need_v i_o go_v from_o my_o text_n to_o prove_v this_o that_o when_o we_o come_v to_o true_a repentance_n we_o shall_v have_v all_o good_a thing_n bestow_v upon_o we_o for_o here_o the_o father_n command_v the_o servant_n to_o fetch_v out_o the_o best_a robe_n now_o all_o the_o robe_n that_o be_v in_o god_n wardrobe_n be_v all_o best_a robe_n for_o the_o thief_n upon_o the_o cross_n that_o die_v with_o christ_n and_o repent_v and_o believe_v in_o he_o have_v one_o of_o the_o best_a robe_n as_o well_o as_o abraham_n jacob_n or_o any_o of_o the_o patriarch_n and_o they_o be_v all_o long_a robe_n not_o scant_v but_o cover_v and_o hide_v all_o our_o filthiness_n with_o the_o kingly_a robe_n and_o shine_a garment_n of_o christ_n and_o he_o will_v not_o content_v himself_o to_o give_v he_o a_o robe_n but_o he_o will_v also_o put_v a_o ring_n upon_o his_o hand_n for_o ornament_n so_o the_o lord_n will_v deck_v and_o adorn_v every_o true_a repentant_a sinner_n with_o the_o comely_a grace_n and_o virtue_n of_o his_o spirit_n and_o whereas_o he_o come_v barefooted_a and_o surbate_z with_o travel_n he_o put_v shoe_n upon_o his_o foot_n so_o the_o lord_n when_o one_o come_v to_o he_o by_o true_a repentance_n he_o will_v bestow_v upon_o he_o the_o shoe_n of_o the_o preparation_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n that_o he_o may_v be_v able_a to_o walk_v through_o all_o rough_a and_o hard_a way_n yea_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n and_o shall_v not_o be_v hurt_v and_o whereas_o he_o come_v home_o with_o a_o languish_a soul_n for_o want_v of_o food_n the_o father_n call_v for_o the_o fat_a calf_n and_o the_o best_a cheer_n he_o have_v he_o bestow_v upon_o he_o so_o the_o lord_n bestow_v upon_o the_o penitent_a sinner_n the_o best_a diet_n and_o banquet_n many_o time_n earthly_a father_n have_v it_o not_o ready_a wherewith_o they_o may_v entertain_v their_o child_n but_o god_n have_v it_o always_o in_o a_o readiness_n a_o feast_n of_o fat_a thing_n even_o a_o feast_n of_o fine_a wine_n and_o fat_a thing_n full_a of_o marrow_n of_o wine_n fine_v and_o purify_v even_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n for_o god_n the_o father_n make_v the_o feast_n jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o matter_n of_o the_o feast_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o apply_o of_o it_o now_o in_o the_o sacrament_n the_o worthy_a receiver_n receive_v all_o these_o thing_n &_o all_o needful_a thing_n shall_v be_v supply_v unto_o they_o thereby_o for_o if_o the_o eat_n of_o one_o fruit_n which_o be_v forbid_v we_o bring_v such_o a_o universal_a misery_n upon_o all_o the_o posterity_n of_o adam_n how_o much_o more_o may_v we_o be_v persuade_v that_o the_o eat_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o the_o drink_n of_o the_o wine_n in_o the_o sacrament_n which_o be_v command_v will_v bring_v a_o more_o happy_a estate_n to_o the_o worthy_a receiver_n they_o the_o other_o lose_v for_o this_o meat_n will_v not_o only_o nourish_v we_o but_o cure_v we_o also_o the_o elder_a brother_n which_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o jew_n he_o be_v angry_a and_o repine_v at_o the_o kind_a deal_n of_o his_o father_n towards_o his_o young_a brother_n but_o now_o our_o elder_a brother_n christ_n jesus_n be_v well_o please_v with_o every_o penitent_a sinner_n which_o come_v to_o his_o father_n and_o make_v intercession_n for_o they_o and_o if_o a_o earthly_a parent_n will_v thus_o love_v a_o young_a son_n which_o have_v be_v a_o lewd_a and_o riotous_a companion_n how_o much_o more_o will_v our_o heavenly_a father_n entertain_v every_o penitent_a person_n that_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o body_n and_o
