what_o a_o mighty_a encouragement_n be_v here_o unto_o all_o man_n to_o come_v to_o christ_n that_o they_o may_v be_v bless_v by_o he_o but_o yet_o further_o as_o there_o be_v a_o encouragement_n for_o to_o come_v unto_o christ_n so_o this_o argument_n do_v also_o encourage_v we_o to_o go_v on_o in_o the_o good_a way_n of_o christ_n notwithstanding_o all_o opposition_n that_o we_o meet_v withal_o i_o say_v it_o do_v speak_v encouragement_n to_o go_v on_o in_o the_o face_n of_o all_o opposition_n for_o when_o abraham_n have_v be_v at_o battle_n than_o come_v melchisedec_n the_o highpriest_n to_o bless_v he_o and_o when_o a_o poor_a soul_n go_v out_o to_o battle_n for_o christ_n then_o come_v our_o great_a melchisedec_n our_o highpriest_n and_o bless_v that_o soul_n the_o time_n of_o opposition_n it_o be_v the_o time_n of_o christ_n blessing_n therefore_o why_o shall_v i_o be_v dilcourage_v or_o beat_v out_o of_o the_o way_n of_o christ_n by_o reason_n of_o any_o opposition_n though_o it_o be_v never_o so_o great_a time_n of_o opposition_n be_v christ_n blessing-time_n again_o this_o argument_n do_v not_o only_o speak_v encouragement_n against_o all_o oppsition_n but_o it_o do_v also_o encourage_v we_o to_o go_v on_o in_o the_o good_a way_n of_o god_n when_o we_o be_v call_v unto_o it_o though_o we_o have_v but_o little_a strength_n and_o weak_a part_n though_o there_o be_v but_o little_a oil_n in_o the_o cruse_n though_o there_o be_v but_o little_a meal_n in_o the_o barrel_n if_o christ_n call_v to_o the_o work_n he_o will_v bless_v a_o man_n in_o it_o and_o when_o christ_n bless_v he_o do_v multiply_v and_o increase_v a_o man_n part_n in_o the_o use_n of_o they_o as_o when_o he_o command_v they_o to_o sit_v down_o and_o eat_v he_o do_v multiply_v and_o increase_v the_o bread_n in_o their_o eat_n so_o now_o do_v christ_n call_v i_o to_o any_o work_n or_o service_n well_o then_o though_o i_o be_o weak_a though_o i_o have_v not_o oil_n enough_o though_o i_o have_v not_o meal_n enough_o though_o i_o have_v not_o strength_n enough_o yet_o the_o lord_n christ_n will_v bless_v and_o when_o he_o bless_v he_o do_v increase_v and_o

all_o this_o be_v true_a why_o shall_v not_o a_o man_n be_v content_v with_o his_o condition_n though_o it_o be_v never_o so_o mean_a belove_a in_o the_o lord_n be_v there_o not_o enough_o in_o christ_n blessing_n true_o he_o be_v too_o covetous_a who_o the_o blessing_n of_o christ_n will_v not_o satisfy_v well_o what_o ever_o my_o condition_n be_v yet_o i_o may_v be_v bless_v by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o have_v the_o lord_n blessed_v i_o then_o will_v i_o be_v content_v with_o my_o condition_n though_o it_o be_v never_o so_o mean_a i_o have_v all_n as_o jacob_n oncesaid_a i_o have_v all._n yea_o in_o the_o five_o and_o last_o place_n here_o be_v that_o which_o if_o well_o study_v and_o consider_v will_v provoke_v we_o all_o for_o to_o bless_v the_o lord_n and_o continual_o to_o bless_v the_o lord_n what_o be_v the_o life_n of_o a_o christian_a here_o but_o a_o continual_a blessing_n of_o god_n it_o be_v heaven_n begin_v and_o in_o heaven_n they_o do_v nothing_o else_o but_o bless_v and_o praise_v the_o lord_n and_o i_o say_v our_o life_n here_o be_v heaven_n begin_v and_o therefore_o a_o christian_a shall_v be_v always_o blessing_n and_o praise_v the_o lord_n well_o but_o what_o will_v make_v a_o man_n to_o be_v always_o blessing_n quest_n and_o praise_v of_o god_n in_o christ_n the_o knowledge_n that_o a_o man_n be_v bless_v by_o christ_n answ_n will_v make_v a_o man_n bless_v god_n for_o christ_n and_o therefore_o consider_v how_o the_o apostle_n reason_n in_o the_o 1._o of_o the_o ephesian_n &_o the_o 3._o vers_fw-la bless_a be_v the_o god_n and_o

he_o will_v break_v forth_o into_o blessing_n and_o praise_v of_o the_o lord_n oh_o bless_a be_v the_o lord_n bless_v the_o lord_n o_o my_o soul_n &_o bless_v the_o lord_n all_o that_o be_v within_o i_o for_o the_o lord_n have_v bless_v i_o with_o spiritual_a blessing_n do_v you_o therefore_o desire_v to_o be_v always_o in_o this_o work_n of_o blessing_n the_o lord_n think_v much_o of_o this_o to_o conclude_v all_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o call_v upon_o you_o to_o remember_v what_o you_o have_v read_v you_o have_v read_v that_o it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o our_o great_a highpriest_n to_o

by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o people_n may_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o holy_a in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o jew_n but_o our_o great_a highpriest_n have_v improve_v his_o favour_n
