this_o a_o man_n will_v not_o think_v that_o herein_o he_o shall_v intend_v any_o hurt_n to_o christ_n or_o to_o his_o church_n but_o in_o very_a truth_n his_o drift_n herein_o be_v to_o destroy_v the_o faith_n of_o christ_n in_o that_o word_n of_o his_o father_n which_o speak_v from_o heaven_n and_o to_o overthrow_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o church_n by_o prove_v that_o jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n of_o marie_n be_v not_o true_a god_n here_o then_o observe_v a_o trick_n of_o the_o devil_n cunning_a thereby_o when_o he_o speak_v a_o truth_n he_o do_v it_o not_o to_o confirm_v the_o same_o as_o love_v it_o but_o indeed_o his_o meaning_n be_v to_o overthrow_v the_o truth_n thereby_o which_o must_v admonish_v we_o that_o when_o satan_n shall_v any_o way_n assault_v we_o in_o temptation_n we_o never_o give_v credit_n unto_o he_o no_o not_o then_o when_o he_o speak_v the_o truth_n because_o therein_o his_o purpose_n be_v to_o deceive_v we_o and_o to_o destroy_v the_o truth_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o christ_n forbid_v the_o unclean_a 25._o spirit_n to_o testify_v of_o he_o though_o they_o acknowledge_v he_o to_o be_v the_o holy_a one_o of_o god_n hence_o also_o paul_n be_v grieve_v at_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o foul_a spirit_n that_o be_v in_o the_o maid_n though_o in_o itself_o a_o most_o worthy_a truth_n to_o wit_n 18._o that_o they_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n which_o show_v unto_o man_n the_o way_n of_o salvation_n further_o in_o compare_v our_o evangelist_n matthew_n with_o s._n luke_n there_o may_v seem_v some_o difference_n between_o they_o in_o propound_v this_o temptation_n for_o in_o matthew_n the_o word_n be_v thus_o command_v these_o stone_n etc._n etc._n and_o in_o luke_n 3._o thus_o command_v this_o stone_n but_o they_o be_v reconcile_v thus_o matthew_n set_v down_o this_o temptation_n as_o the_o devil_n first_o propound_v it_o and_o s._n luke_n show_v how_o the_o devil_n urge_v it_o for_o first_o the_o devil_n come_v to_o christ_n and_o bid_v he_o if_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n command_v all_o the_o stone_n which_o he_o see_v round_o about_o he_o to_o be_v make_v bread_n this_o s._n matthew_n set_v down_o or_o if_o that_o seem_v too_o much_o command_v one_o stone_n to_o be_v make_v bread_n and_o it_o shall_v suffice_v and_o this_o s._n luke_n note_v the_o use_n by_o this_o compare_v of_o the_o evangelist_n we_o may_v observe_v that_o when_o the_o devil_n have_v once_o begin_v to_o tempt_v a_o man_n he_o will_v not_o easy_o leave_v off_o but_o will_v set_v a_o edge_n upon_o it_o and_o enforce_v and_o urge_v it_o by_o all_o the_o mean_n he_o can_v that_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a it_o may_v prevail_v which_o shall_v teach_v we_o on_o the_o other_o side_n to_o be_v most_o earnest_a and_o resolute_a in_o resist_v satan_n temptation_n he_o will_v take_v small_a advantage_n before_o he_o leave_v we_o therefore_o must_v not_o 27._o give_v place_n nor_o yield_v one_o jot_n unto_o he_o 7._o resist_v the_o devil_n and_o he_o will_v fly_v this_o must_v every_o member_n of_o the_o church_n do_v the_o minister_n by_o sound_n and_o through_o apply_v of_o every_o part_n of_o god_n truth_n to_o the_o heart_n whereby_o it_o may_v be_v arm_v against_o the_o enemy_n and_o the_o people_n by_o faithful_a embrace_v and_o obey_v of_o the_o same_o as_o also_o by_o earnest_a prayer_n unto_o god_n for_o the_o assistance_n of_o his_o grace_n in_o all_o assault_n verse_n 4._o but_o he_o answer_v say_v it_o be_v write_v 3._o man_n shall_v not_o live_v by_o bread_n only_o but_o by_o every_o word_n that_o proceed_v out_o of_o the_o mouth_n of_o god_n these_o word_n contain_v christ_n gracious_a answer_n whereby_o he_o repel_v the_o devil_n temptation_n and_o in_o it_o we_o may_v observe_v three_o point_n first_o that_o christ_n do_v answer_n second_o whence_o he_o borrow_v his_o answer_n three_o the_o very_a word_n of_o his_o answer_n for_o the_o first_o that_o christ_n do_v answer_v be_v note_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o plain_a word_n and_o jesus_n answer_v say_v whereby_o he_o will_v give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o christ_n jesus_n our_o saviour_n be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n be_v not_o only_o willing_a and_o ready_a to_o encounter_v with_o satan_n but_o also_o able_a to_o withstand_v he_o yea_o and_o to_o vanquish_v satan_n without_o receive_v any_o foil_n at_o his_o hand_n which_o be_v a_o point_n of_o singular_a comfort_n to_o god_n church_n and_o child_n for_o be_v christ_n jesus_n able_a in_o this_o low_a and_o base_a estate_n of_o a_o servant_n be_v disaduantage_v also_o by_o a_o desert_n place_n and_o bodily_a hunger_n be_v he_o then_o i_o say_v able_a to_o encounter_v with_o satan_n and_o to_o overcome_v he_o in_o his_o most_o violent_a and_o subtle_a assault_n then_o how_o much_o more_o be_v he_o now_o able_a even_o in_o all_o his_o member_n to_o give_v satan_n the_o foil_n have_v spoil_v he_o in_o his_o death_n see_v he_o be_v advance_v to_o the_o throne_n of_o majesty_n and_o glory_n and_o set_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o his_o father_n have_v a_o name_n above_o all_o name_n give_v unto_o he_o at_o which_o every_o knee_n shall_v bow_v both_o of_o thing_n in_o heaven_n and_o in_o the_o earth_n and_o under_o the_o earth_n we_o therefore_o may_v now_o say_v with_o that_o loud_a voice_n 10._o now_o be_v salvation_n in_o heaven_n and_o strength_n and_o power_n and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o our_o god_n and_o the_o power_n of_o his_o christ_n for_o the_o accuser_n of_o the_o brethren_n be_v cast_v down_o the_o second_o point_n here_o note_v be_v whence_o christ_n borrow_v his_o answer_n namely_o from_o the_o scripture_n it_o be_v write_v it_o have_v be_v a_o easy_a thing_n for_o christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o have_v confound_v the_o tempter_n with_o the_o breath_n of_o his_o mouth_n or_o to_o have_v command_v innumerable_a legion_n of_o holy_a angel_n to_o have_v drive_v he_o away_o but_o he_o betake_v himself_o to_o the_o write_a word_n for_o his_o defence_n and_o this_o he_o do_v especial_o for_o our_o instruction_n namely_o that_o we_o may_v know_v satan_n that_o the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n right_o wield_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o faith_n be_v the_o most_o sufficient_a weapon_n for_o the_o repel_v of_o satan_n and_o the_o vanquish_a of_o he_o in_o all_o his_o temptation_n hence_o paul_n call_v it_o 17._o the_o sword_n of_o the_o spirit_n because_o it_o serve_v not_o only_o for_o our_o defence_n but_o also_o to_o wound_v satan_n and_o to_o put_v he_o to_o flight_n the_o use_n i._o this_o fact_n of_o christ_n do_v discover_v and_o condemn_v the_o damnable_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n who_o lock_n up_o the_o word_n of_o god_n from_o their_o people_n in_o a_o unknowen_a tongue_n and_o commend_v unto_o they_o for_o their_o defence_n against_o spiritual_a enemy_n other_o device_n of_o their_o own_o as_o holy_a water_n cross_v cross_n etc._n etc._n which_o they_o high_o commend_v as_o mean_n of_o special_a strength_n and_o force_n to_o vanquish_v the_o devil_n when_o as_o indeed_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v the_o only_a true_a and_o trusty_a weapon_n whereof_o while_o they_o deprive_v their_o people_n they_o send_v they_o forth_o naked_a and_o unarmed_a to_o encounter_v with_o satan_n second_o here_o also_o behold_v the_o miserable_a estate_n of_o all_o those_o that_o either_o through_o covetousness_n or_o any_o other_o profaneness_n be_v draw_v to_o neglect_v or_o contemn_v the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n their_o case_n be_v most_o fearful_a for_o they_o cast_v away_o those_o weapon_n whereby_o they_o shall_v defend_v themselves_o against_o the_o devil_n and_o quench_v all_o his_o fiery_a dart_n and_o so_o betray_v their_o own_o soul_n into_o his_o hand_n and_o doubtless_o all_o contemner_n and_o neglecter_n of_o the_o word_n be_v guilty_a of_o their_o own_o damnation_n because_o god_n have_v give_v we_o his_o word_n for_o our_o defence_n and_o for_o the_o confound_a of_o satan_n so_o as_o without_o guilt_n of_o wilful_a murder_n not_o of_o our_o body_n but_o of_o our_o soul_n we_o can_v neglect_v this_o heavenly_a weapon_n three_o hereby_o we_o may_v see_v the_o cause_n why_o sin_n so_o much_o abound_v in_o all_o estate_n every_o where_o namely_o the_o want_n of_o love_n unto_o &_o
