all_o knee_n shall_v bow_v unto_o he_o second_o meaning_n that_o he_o be_v in_o rule_n and_o government_n in_o the_o high_a place_n next_o to_o god_n ephes_n 1._o 20_o 21._o it_o be_v say_v that_o

the_o head_n to_o the_o church_n these_o be_v the_o two_o thing_n employ_v in_o his_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n whence_o we_o be_v to_o take_v notice_n of_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o christ_n have_v ennoble_v our_o nature_n and_o have_v lift_v it_o up_o above_o angel_n and_o archangel_n 1_o therefore_o see_v christ_n have_v thus_o dignify_v and_o ennoble_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n in_o set_v it_o above_o angel_n and_o archangel_n what_o shall_v we_o answer_v to_o god_n if_o we_o abase_v it_o and_o bring_v it_o below_o the_o mean_a of_o the_o creature_n i_o do_v not_o say_v below_o the_o sun_n and_o moon_n and_o star_n which_o be_v constant_a in_o their_o motion_n and_o course_n but_o below_o the_o dumb_a creature_n for_o they_o do_v moderate_v themselves_o in_o their_o appetite_n they_o will_v take_v no_o more_o meat_n and_o drink_n than_o will_v do_v they_o good_a and_o will_v be_v moderate_a in_o their_o sleep_n therefore_o what_o shall_v we_o answer_v to_o god_n for_o our_o excess_n but_o i_o will_v to_o god_n we_o can_v stay_v here_o christ_n have_v lift_v up_o our_o nature_n above_o the_o angel_n and_o we_o embase_v it_o and_o bring_v it_o below_o the_o devil_n for_o when_o man_n be_v rule_v by_o the_o devil_n they_o make_v themselves_o slave_n to_o he_o and_o so_o bring_v themselves_o below_o the_o devil_n as_o we_o see_v he_o can_v no_o soon_o bid_v adam_n eat_v but_o he_o do_v eat_v and_o cain_n kill_v his_o brother_n but_o he_o kill_v he_o and_o judas_n betray_v his_o master_n but_o he_o betray_v he_o so_o he_o can_v no_o soon_o bid_v man_n swear_v but_o they_o will_v swear_v or_o lie_v but_o they_o will_v lie_v or_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n but_o they_o will_v do_v it_o therefore_o when_o man_n be_v thus_o rule_v by_o he_o what_o be_v it_o but_o to_o make_v themselves_o slave_n to_o the_o devil_n and_o then_o how_o shall_v man_n answer_v this_o injury_n and_o wrong_n do_v to_o christ_n we_o read_v prov._n 31._o 4._o bathsheba_n say_v to_o her_o son_n simile_n it_o be_v not_o for_o king_n o_o lemuel_n to_o drink_v wine_n nor_o for_o prince_n to_o drink_v strong_a drink_n lest_o they_o drink_v and_o forget_v the_o law_n so_o be_v not_o for_o christian_n to_o swear_v to_o lie_v to_o deceive_v one_o another_o to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n for_o christ_n have_v grace_v they_o and_o therefore_o they_o must_v take_v heed_n they_o do_v not_o disgrace_v their selve_o christ_n have_v ennoble_v their_o nature_n and_o set_v it_o up_o above_o the_o angel_n and_o therefore_o they_o must_v take_v heed_n they_o do_v not_o disgrace_v it_o by_o a_o sinful_a life_n second_o we_o be_v to_o take_v notice_n that_o see_v jesus_n christ_n be_v in_o the_o next_o place_n to_o god_n in_o administration_n and_o government_n 2_o so_o he_o be_v in_o honour_n not_o only_a next_o unto_o god_n but_o also_o have_v all_o at_o his_o command_n he_o be_v the_o ruler_n and_o governor_n of_o this_o whole_a world_n and_o therefore_o will_v govern_v it_o for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o church_n and_o of_o his_o people_n and_o one_o day_n thou_o shall_v bless_v god_n and_o bow_v thy_o knee_n and_o thank_v he_o that_o he_o have_v put_v the_o government_n into_o his_o hand_n rom._n 8._o 24._o it_o be_v say_v that_o all_o thing_n shall_v work_v together_o for_o the_o best_a or_o good_a of_o they_o that_o love_v he_o the_o whole_a world_n shall_v wind_v and_o turn_v to_o his_o good_a simile_n if_o a_o man_n be_v a_o friend_n to_o god_n and_o love_v he_o there_o be_v number_n of_o strange_a turn_n and_o

say_v that_o every_o one_o may_v finish_v his_o redemption_n without_o christ_n and_o merit_v something_o at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n by_o his_o own_o work_n notwithstanding_o all_o the_o pain_n that_o christ_n suffer_v to_o redeem_v man_n and_o so_o they_o make_v the_o work_n of_o man_n redemption_n of_o none_o effect_n nay_o the_o moderate_v of_o they_o say_v that_o salvation_n be_v begin_v in_o christ_n but_o they_o must_v finish_v and_o perfect_v it_o in_o themselves_o whereas_o the_o scripture_n do_v attribute_v all_o to_o christ_n only_o as_o heb._n 7._o 25._o wherefore_o he_o be_v
